And its getting late by the time I arrive. I already want to leave, I already want to leave. I know how this night will end. Me home. Drunk, alone in my own bed. You've got your snarky attitude, he's got his drink for two. You've got all eyes on you, he's got his eyes all over you. Here's to a night of petty games and to thinking that we're the same. Here's to my wasted time and to their crooked spines. And in the end I'll be the one you blame. You haven't said a word to me. So this is how its gonna be? You do this every time. Expect me to act like I'm fine. All over everyone but me and I know the second I begin to leave (Once I begin to leave) You'll flip that switch and try to stop me from ditching. But your effort is worthless. (I know you don't care at all) You've got your snarky attitude, he's got his drink for two. You've got all eyes on you, he's got his eyes all over you. Here's to a night of petty games and to thinking that we're the same. Here's to my wasted time and to their crooked spines. And in the end I'll be the one you blame. We're out till the sun comes up. Broken bottles and empty cups. Its not enough to fill your lust. Its not enough to fill your lust. You'll drag me from my bed to come and hold your heavy head. You'll go against all that I've said. You'll go against all that I've said. I've never been one for the weekend..

Old Grey 04:20
You were such a waste of my time and space in my mind. I think on you, the past. I do. The more I do the less I remember. Now its decaying. Its not staying. Just like you when you walked out of my life. Like the summer I spent the whole time in my room. Just thinking of you. Not much is new. You left me feeling old and grey and now I won't stay. I won't say that I'm sorry for walking away. And these bones of mine? They're falling apart. I'm falling apart. And I'm losing my mind. Like the summer I spent the whole time in my room Just thinking of you Not much is new. I put the past where it needs to be. You don't mean anything to me.

Tracing back vacant frames And counting down the days Till we would next share space I'll occupate my time Try to dissipate this constant taste of us On my mind Search for the tracks I left behind Got this feeling inside It follows me across state lines Keeps me up at night Burns like the warm moonlight And all I can do is drive But I need you here in my life Need you here by my side I know I caused the distance Just tell me if you're with this All we need to do is try Got way too drunk again Shouldn't have even made it home I can't sleep again constantly waiting by the phone So I can spill my "I love you"s You'll think I'm untrue God I can't get you off my mind Waiting for a callback Baby, I know that's the biggest waste of time. Got this feeling inside It follows me across state lines Keeps me up at night Burns like the warm moonlight And all I can do is drive But I need you here in my life Need you here by my side I know I caused the distance Just tell me if you're with this All we need to do is try I broke all the trust you had in the man that I was Tarnished my name and I'm scared you don't feel the same But you're all that I want You're the reason for all this I'll show I'll be the me you want to be with So if you still feel the same, call me on new years day I'd like to hear your voice with the sparks in the sky If not I'll go on my way, continue our old charade I know I won't cross your mind Erase me yeah its fine Yeah, its fine. But I've still got Got this feeling inside It follows me across state lines Keeps me up at night Burns like the warm moonlight And all I can do is drive But I need you here in my life Need you here by my side I know I caused the distance Just tell me if you're with this All we need to do is try I know I caused the distance Just tell me if you're with this One chance I promise we'll be fine If you're mine

Its funny how we always end up back here. Its funny how we always end up back here. Always end up back here. Always end up back here. Another night, another set of problems. And I'm trying to drown out these past years. Hollow memories of the friends we used to be. An open wound, you can't seem to let heal. But "this is just how we are." Yeah, this is just how we are. You've downed half the bottle again. And now you're calling me to come and keep your hair from falling As we sit on the bathroom floor. And I've downed half the bottle. You're calling me a drunk again. And I can't help but feel. I can't help but feel like breaking my fist on the wall. Or falling down the flight of stairs outside. Maybe then, you'd realise how I feel inside When you ask and I say I'm fine.

Think back. Heavy hearts know all about the weight of the world. For what its worth, I never thought this is how it'd unfurl. You can't deny how many fucking times I've tried. And if I died could you live with the way we said goodbye? I bet you never saw this coming. Steady foundation crumbling. I'm here. Right now. And I'll see this all burned to the ground. But I'll put it back. I'll put it back piece by piece. Piece by piece. Believe in me. Use your words, why are you silent? Talk to me. Use words not violence. Heart's beating, you slam the door into my face. Heart's bleeding. I'm nothing. Tell me how much you love me. Tell me how much you love me. Tell me how much you love me. You know you love to hate me. I bet you never saw this coming. Steady foundation crumbling. I'm here. Right now. And I'll see this all burned to the ground. And I'll put it back. I'll put it back piece by piece. Piece by piece. I'll put it back with my bare hands. I am a man of my word. I am a man of my word.

Loss of Life 03:50
I think I'm near the end of my rope. Searching the distance for any signs of hope. Praying that someone around me knows That I am feeling terribly alone. Alone. My thoughts, they get the best of me. Bringing me down. Not who I'd like to be. Not who I'd like to be. Yet I think that I'm okay with death. Wondering if today I'll draw my very last breath. Don't have the courage to slit my throat. Can only hope it will end out of my control. And if I lost my life? Would you even mind? Who would even cry? Would you even mind? And you would miss me maybe for a day Then go on about your ways Till it came back around Till that day came back around. Except for the ones who cared. Their pain endured, I could not bear. But I'm at a loss of life. Guess I will always try to find a way to go on. I just wish you all would know Sometimes a problem is more than what people show.
