The Friction 04:20
So I had one Float back in the deep end Easy to achieve but harder to believe in When building so quickly more likely to cave in How is it that you decided so quickly my dear? How does it feel to fly away? So I lost one It's never easier though it's so often Still rings in my ears though the words never spoken With space in between I can still feel the friction, friction How is it that you decided so quickly my dear? How does it feel to fly away? I'm sure it seems right But I'm still here Can't figure out how to spread wings Are you bettering yourself for him? Will he come back will you finally live?

Here To Stay 04:04
Now that I’m here and hanging on at your will I cannot help but think we’ll be here for a while I get so tiered but the blood that flows from my heart through my head Helps enough to crack a smile Breathe easy, man, don’t give off a sign of defense An unfair disadvantage A rule never the less Breathe easy, man, don’t give off a sign of defense Oh no, oh no The thought alone fells real enough to break bones Thus the silence always seems to take hold And when I’m tiered it’s these feeling that flow Down to the core, I fear my heart might explode She said you’ll never get the best of both worlds Best of both worlds

Ecstatic 05:15
Once I saw you ecstatic guess that's kinda hard where I live In a mind frame so manic hope to god that my friends can forgive Sometimes the past don't seem real In and out of control everyday have you got happiness to feel hopin' maybe you could throw some my way or maybe say Everything you want and everyone you needed Is on the other side and all you have to do is bleed Nothin' in the town ever happens Everything starts to repeat Decisions predicted from patterns but never brings about what I need Now that I think about it I don't really know anything All that I've learned, come to doubt it But that in itself is a form of release and now I see

Marissa 03:22
Talk to me marissa Tell me what you really mean Blame yourself for all of this And get off so easily i know I had at least one hand in helping you along tell me what I done marissa do I do you wrong tell me what I’ve done it seams as though I’m not for you explinations that you gave are all tried and untrue for better or for worse I need the truth so I can see if I could see me with out you you came and went so quick I nearly missed it tiny glimpses that you gave really got me twisted

Replacements 03:58
How does it feel to be alone That’s the question that I’ll ask And you’ll never know Out of my head and through the exit Of my soul Was so wealthy now I’m begging Oh no How does it feel to be around Holding someone else so tight In someone else’s town Out of your heart and through the exit Of your mouth Had a purpose now it’s sinking Oh no Who’s side are you on What this takes and who I really am is gone It’s all stuck inside the heart you stole Or is it stuck inside my mind How does it feel when you make love It’s so pointless where I am One more worthless fuck Out of my head there is no exit Out of luck This is dangerous but I’m hanging on
6.
So this is it I’ve given up slowly Still got the time to tell you what it is With brand new sight, caught up to the horizon To keep the pace, we’ll have to travel quick So here it is I don’t feel any different Don’t have the time to fuck up like I did You are the best Well at least in this instance I can’t tell time At least not when I win Can’t tell time At least not when I win Weary and wondering home Your arms get used to letting go It’s so easy to tell your secrets To someone you’ll never go So here we are Nothing like separation Do you recall when this was all brand new Can’t help but hurt The death and recollection Can’t help but think You wish you never knew
7.
She’s passed out and her eyes Have fallen through her mind Now it’s just too bright to see She’ll never compromise She’ll tell you there’s no difference Between real life and dreams I’m passed out and my mind Is drowning in the drink again So I sleep sound at night Cause I’d be terrified If I ever had to dream again Of drowning in your eyes When I’m alone I can’t find myself I’m so afraid that I’m someone else It’s terrifying to think that I Can’t realize how you Hurt inside It was a matter of time Just a matter of time
8.
Hearts should be harder to break With such thick ice in your veins And all the drugs that you take Take away the pain Life should be easy to do It all falls down on you Decisions you make Are getting in the way It’s so much harder on me While your sleeping easily It’s so much harder to take When you got nothing to say And all the love I could make Is drowning in the hate I guess it’s no ones concern You really think I would learn But I got no where to turn No body yearning for me

Platonic 05:24
Hey, what’s the point Of being around If you’re not around You could tell all your secrets To everyone else I can’t make a sound It’s a beautiful thought To think you’re alone But you’re never alone I’m not trying to die But at least there’s comfort In inevitable Hey what’s the point Of seeing you now If I can’t be civil And we can’t fool around I could start over I could renew The point’s probably moot If I’m not over you I know it’s early but I fear The end’s in sight Once too often I’ve been traumatized You think I’m beautiful But it’s the first time What the point To even try This is the last good bye
