Once me but now it's we Unlicensed therapy Into the black as two Riding the wind with you What would it take to run away Far from here, far from pain Into the sun, as it falls Nothing that we can't do Nothing but me and you I walk when I walk with you I stand when I stand for you I'm me at my best when I'm by your side I am when I am with you I fight when I fight for you The days are running out The one thing I can't live without Once lost but now I'm found On my way out of town We left it all behind Live a life not defined What would it take to run away Far from here, far from pain Into the sun, as it falls Nothing that we can't do Nothing but me and you I walk when I walk with you I stand when I stand for you I'm me at my best when I'm by your side I am when I am with you I fight when I fight for you The days are running out The one thing I can't live without

Nothing Left 01:56
Time only obstructs, gets in the way Growing up is fucked, age will betray Party scars, prison bars The bottom I'm already there Trying again because my youth distorted Every chance getting anything sorted Tripping face, cops and mace, I medicate Failed attempts, behind rent, notice to vacate Kinda lost but I'd like to keep falling Come along and there's nothing stopping I'll never be just for me that's easy I hope you see through the sleaze the real me Party scars, prison bars The bottom I'm already there Trying again because my youth distorted Every chance getting anything sorted Tripping face, cops and mace, I medicate Failed attempts, behind rent, notice to vacate Kinda lost but I'd like to keep falling Come along and there's nothing stopping I'll never be just for me that's easy I hope you see through the sleaze the real me Run with me, far from everything Nothing left but you Nothing left but me Next stop is the end Where the light begins Washed of all our sins Beyond the end

For One Day 03:41
Waking up knowing nothing has changed Waking up and the world is the same A breath before it all comes alive A quiet pause that will never survive Everything comes to an end Every moment passes Everything will fall apart The worst always happens Trying to regain the past Leaving out the present I keep falling The joy of being slowly dissipates The lost love in what you create The lost time you will never get back The sun has fallen and the sky has turned black The end of days that would never end Making room for something new to begin A look back at what you have lost A snapshot of what this all cost Everything comes to an end Every moment passes Everything will fall apart The worst always happens Trying to regain the past Leaving out the present I keep falling The joy of being slowly dissipates The lost love in what you create The lost time you will never get back The sun has fallen and the sky has turned black For one day There's no rain The light remains I keep falling For one day There's no pain The stars remain I keep falling
4.
A New Void 05:44
You bleed, repeat, creating A heartbeat that depletes for nothing A new noise, a new void, left empty It destroys any joy from middle C Movement no one ever feels Screaming no one ever hears Fuck me for everything Chasing a life that won't ever lead to anything Fuck me, fuck you, fuck everyone else too You bleed, repeat, keep healing A heartbeat that depletes all feeling A new noise, a new void, more dreaming It destroys all the joy and meaning Movement no one ever feels Screaming no one ever hears Fuck me for everything Chasing a life that won't ever lead to anything Fuck me, fuck you, fuck everyone else too Fuck me for the lost time Every moment after a dream you can not define Fuck me, fuck you, fuck everyone else too You fight back with a new sound You dissect what weighs you down A chance to address the scars That keep you living behind bars Take your insides out Show what keeps you down Catharsis through pain and loss It's only for yourself Fuck me for everything Chasing a life that won't ever lead to anything Fuck me, fuck you, fuck everyone else too Fuck me for the lost time Every moment after a dream you can not define Fuck me, fuck you, fuck everyone else too Fuck me for everything Chasing a life that won't ever lead to anything Fuck me, fuck you, fuck everyone else too Fuck me for the lost time Every moment after a dream you can not define Fuck me, fuck you, fuck everyone else too

The Escape 04:33
When I need a way to survive the day Need to get away from the daily pain I pick up the phone and call on you When I think about punching in and out All I'm left without, drowning in this drought I pick up the phone and call on you When I'm at my worst and about to burst Everything reversed, choking on my thirst I pick up the phone and call on you When I want to die, barely scraping by Need another try but the well is dry I pick up the phone and call on you Every time that I try to align With everyone walking on the line I just can't seem to make it all work Without something to numb all the hurt Flying high above everything Problems blur with distance between Hit the gas and I'm not looking back Not going back Escape to somewhere far from here Escaping just to disappear Break free from what's holding you down Let go untethered to the ground When I need a way to survive the day Everything's the same fuck the daily pain I pick up the phone and call on you When I think about punching in and out All I'm left without, drowning in this drought I pick up the phone and call on you When I'm at my worst and about to burst Everything reversed, choking on my thirst I pick up the phone and call on you When I want to die, barely scraping by Need another try but the well is dry I pick up the phone and call on you Every time that I try to align With everyone walking on the line I just can't seem to make it all work Without something to numb all the hurt Flying high above everything Problems blur with distance between Hit the gas and I'm not looking back Not going back Escape to somewhere far from here Escaping just to disappear Break free from what's holding you down Let go untethered to the ground Every time that I try to align With everyone walking on the line I just can't seem to make it all work Without something to numb all the hurt

Debt 02:58
Keep it up 'cuz it's what they all need from me Every breath until death walk the line so they see It's easier to put up a face Than try to explain why I'm out of place One day I won't need to lie Some days I can just get by The phase I never outlived Makes it harder to forget Who I thought that I would be What lies I would never breathe A life I did not ever want A life forced onto everyone Don't forget pay your debt to society Without a sound swallow down all your misery It's easier to put up a face Than try to explain why I'm out of place One day I won't need to lie Some days I can just get by The phase I never outlived Makes it harder to forget Who I thought that I would be What lies I would never breathe A life I did not ever want A life forced onto everyone

Grey Skies 03:17
Ready set and go To the end of the road You're either fast or you're slow Get moving We're born into a race There's only one first place You better pick up the pace Keep Losing I thought that this would be the day when I would finally feel ok The grey sky remains There has to be something else More than this More than this hell You wake up every day Behind in every way Either early or late Get moving Put down your head and march on To the beat of someone's drum Chase after more income You're losing I thought that this would be the day when I would finally feel ok The grey sky remains There has to be something else More than this More than this hell Ready set and go To the end of the road You're either fast or you're slow Get moving We're born into a race There's only one first place You better pick up the pace Keep Losing

Accomplice 04:19
Sick of this shit It never ends Held down by this It always wins It's a cold, dark, empty world Nothing remains Built to only take from you Nothing but pain I've tried everything I know To break free from this control I won't take what's been given to me I don't want anything This fucked place, fallen grace Scorch the earth to become exceptional Land defaced, species erased Killing each other deemed socially acceptable Sick of all this shit This worthless life Powerless to resist Stripped of all our rights It's a cold, dark, empty world Nothing remains Built to only take from you Nothing but pain I've tried everything I know To break free from this control I won't take what's been given to me I don't want anything This fucked place, fallen grace Scorch the earth to become exceptional Land defaced, species erased Killing each other deemed socially acceptable I won't be an accomplice to displacement I won't help you dehumanize through hatred I didn't ask for this It's not a crime to exist I didn't ask for this It's not a crime to exist It's a cold, dark, empty world Nothing remains Built to only take from you Nothing but pain I've tried everything I know To break free from this control I won't take what's been given to me I don't want anything This fucked place, fallen grace Scorch the earth to become exceptional Land defaced, species erased Killing each other deemed socially acceptable

There's no other way It's all pay to play Costs more than you know Being costs your soul I wish I was the kind of person to take what's fucking mine Keep bleeding across the page Break even to stay in place Sometimes I wish I never met you Sometimes I wish I never let this take over Find another path that still keeps it back Tame what's left inside Chase what gets you high I wish I was the kind of person to take what's fucking mine Keep bleeding across the page Break even to stay in place Sometimes I wish I never met you Sometimes I wish I never let this take over Sometimes I wish I never met you Sometimes I wish I could just start this over It's one of those pathetic dreams but it means everything to me Masochism at its heart Living your life far apart Self harm making something that's real A wound that's not going to heal Revealing what has broken you Why it all keeps falling through Using the pain, hide and escape Looking for a way to distance myself The catalyst that's driving this Will also be the end of everything Taking your pills, making your bills Separation of church and what you hate The pushing force of my remorse is facing the fact that I'm a failure

I Lost It 03:45
I never knew how fast it passes you I wish I could stop, go back and get what I forgot Burning away time Falling short every time I try Tomorrow's divide Work night and day to just get by There is no past, no future Not meant to last, it always blurs Tomorrow comes, it bleeds today When you let go it all fades away Live in each moment they don't last too long Hold on to each breath before it goes wrong Tomorrow comes, it bleeds today When you let go it all falls away Here, there is no hope A world that fits inside a globe Just work, eat, sleep and die No where to go no where to hide Burning away time Falling short every time I try Tomorrow's divide Work night and day to just get by There is no past, no future Not meant to last, it always blurs Tomorrow comes, it bleeds today When you let go it all fades away Live in each moment they don't last too long Hold on to each breath before it goes wrong Tomorrow comes, it bleeds today When you let go it all falls away Self medicating to survive Dull senses to subdue all drive Each breath brings us closer to death When we're all gone there's nothing left I lost you
12.
Exile 02:57
Pull away, idle By design, exile Only one way to know for sure Diving head first into a blur The chaos of uncertainty The fear of finding harmony I hope you have everything you need Everything I bring I hope there is nothing more than me All I have you see I hope you have everything you need Everything you need Pull away, idle By design, exile There's only so much I can do Only so much that I can prove Without taking that first great leap Not knowing what hides in the deep I hope you have everything you need Everything I bring I hope there is nothing more than me All I have you see I hope you have everything you need Everything you need
13.
Chosen One 02:15
14.
My last chance I wanna walk in like a king My last chance Not like a nobody with nothing One mistake from, one heartbreak from Losing everything I have One miss step leads to my death When check to check for life Trying to live but I just survive Fighting to get through another night Trying to live while I'm dead inside Dead inside What would it take for you to lose Everything that you think makes you Without a home to call your own And left with nothing (M Y L A S T C H A N C E it's my last chance) You can't run away The planes level some day We all have our time It all unwinds
15.
Be Sick 03:44
What would it take to really level you Dead in your tracks not knowing what to do When everything begins closing in What would it take to bury you When it is your turn No one's free from loss, hurt, pain We all succumb to it You've got to get a little worse Before anything will improve Taking the guardrails off the tracks Make room with what you have removed Get back up Don't give in Moving on Move on Back from the dead you start your way straight up Work from the bottom aiming for above The higher you climb the harder you fall What would it take to bury you When it is your turn No one's free from loss, hurt, pain We all lose every day You've got to get a little worse Before anything will improve Taking the guardrails off the tracks Make room with what you have removed Get back up Don't give in Moving on Move on
16.
Burn It Down 02:30
Wake up behind another day Running short on time Not showing up early is late Get the fuck in line Working so someone else gets paid Work to support a life you hate Burn down everything Burn down everything Half step behind everyone else Not gifted their grace Tooth and nail just to stay afloat Know your fucking place Working so someone else gets paid Work to support a life you hate Burn down everything Burn down everything Burn it all down

Misery 02:45
18.
Let Go 04:34
Another chance to get things wrong This time revenge is the end of friction A final fall or loss to affliction I know that you need me I can't stop the bleeding From each life that I let go Overcome the fear Nothing is so clear No where else but here Someone I knew but did not know Someone like you so I can let go Another chance to get things wrong This time revenge on everyone I know A final fall or I'll go it alone I know that you need me I can't stop retreating From the life that I let go Overconing fear Nothing is so clear No where else but here Someone I knew but did not know Someone like you so I can let go When we are lost there's nothing else but this it's all just background When we are lost there's nothing else but this getting up to get down No compromises when something that never ends A life with my best friend something that will never end
19.
Pushing Back 03:00
One more, one last hit No more, I can't quit This trepidation that pushes back Keeping me at a distance The comfort of knowing you Some shelter from life pushing through An embrace of a familiar place Some help with the weight that's crushing you One more, fight off pain No more, I can't contain Fear of the unknown that pushes back Keeping me at a distance The comfort of knowing you Some shelter from life pushing through An embrace of a familiar place Some help with the weight that's crushing you
20.
Out of Room 02:07
Counting each minute as they pass We used to make each of them last Burn away every day Losing time, losing Put down your head and do your time Autonomy from five to nine Another boss, another job A dead road you can't get off Burn away every day Losing time, losing Put down your head and do your time Autonomy from five to nine Someone before me set my fate Not in jail but I'm an inmate A life of servitude An outlaw with no room

What Follows 04:52
Sometimes I don't know me Sometimes I get lonely Sometimes I wish I was dead You found me lost Upside down Double crossed Gagged and bound When you see the real me When nothing's in between When you have everything What will come next This is all I can do This is what I've been through This is me, this is you What will follow Sometimes you don't know me Sometimes I get lonely Sometimes I wish I was dead You found me lost Upside down Double crossed Gagged and bound When you see the real me When nothing's in between When you have everything What will come next This is all I can do This is what I've been through This is me, this is you What will follow What follows What follows me here What follows What follows What follows us here What follows
