Sleeping

I can't stop slipping up and making mistakes
Over and over, it's the same thing, each day
It's like there's something crawling under my skin.
It's like there's something crawling under my skin.
And I can't sleep at night
My thoughts alone keep my wide eyed
Now I can't sleep at night
I can't put up against this fight
I'm sleeping with my eyes open
I can't put up against this fight
I'm sleeping with my eyes open
Until I learn to let up and let go
Until I learn to let up and let go
This will continue to haunt me
This will continue to haunt me
I can't put up against this fight
I'm sleeping with my eyes open
I can't put up against this fight
I'm sleeping with my eyes open
And if living a lie makes you feel alive
Then send me straight to hell
When will I learn let up?
When will I learn to let go?

Dying Light

I used to be so courageous
Not a care in the world,
I never cared what they said
But little by little
They chipped away
They stole a part of me
Word by word
I felt them all
Stripping me clean
(But now I’m singing)
Renew the fire, rekindle the flames
When did the fire leave my eyes?
I used to be so full of life
But who could blame me?
When I was just a kid
I never knew what growing up meant
Not a care in the world,
I never cared what they said
But little by little
They chipped away
They stole a part of me
Word by word
I felt them all
Stripping me clean
Dying light
With nowhere to shine
I’m a dying light
When did the fire leave my eyes?
I used to be so full of life
Renew the fire, rekindle the flames
And I will not be contained
I'll never be the same

Bad Habit
02:13

I wasted too much time
Caring about what you and your friends would say
I swept away in their thoughts and their beliefs
I got carried away
I got carried away
Now I've made some mistakes
And I'm okay with that
I'm turning things around for the better
Hook, line, sinker you caught me
And made me your prisoner
Since when did I care about
Your half-priced wisdom?
I've got a bad habit
Of keeping you around
But I'm letting you go
You don't control me
You don't control me
You never could
You never would
You don't control me
You never could again

Could've, Would've

I must be the only one in this place who's not blind
Cause you don't want to talk to me
I get it and that's just fine
But what I can't take
Is when you fake it
When you smile but your mind is vacant
And what I can't stand
Is when you fake it
When you smile but your mind is vacant
Oh, God, Save me
This can't be the only way
Oh, God, Save me
This can't be the only way out
I said I'd come back
But I never had the guts
And I said I loved you
But I never had the guts
I could've, I would've
But I never had the guts
I could've, I would've
I never had the guts
I could've and I would've
But I never had the guts
I could've and I would've
But I never had the guts
Can the past outweigh the present?
Or can the present outweigh the past?
You know, I never had the guts to ask
I never had the guts
I never had the guts
I never had the guts

Underground

I cant find my way out
From this hole I've dug myself
I always heard it was easier
Living in solitude, underground
And I find it hard to breathe
When your arms aren't wrapped around me
'Cause I feel so close and yet so fucking far away
Living in solitude, underground
'Cause I've been there, I've been there
I'm still there, I'm still there
I'm still here, I'm still here
And I'm not going anywhere
I'm over and out
I think I'll stay here at home
'Cause I'm better off on my own
I think I'll stay here at home
'Cause I'm better off on my own
On my own.

Helpless

You say I'm damned if I fight
Damned if I don't
That this could finally be the end of my rope
Well, if it's true, what you say
I think I'd rather find out the hard way
Refuse, refuse
I refuse to live like this
Helpless
Thinking and thinking every single day
Can I break the cycle? 'Cause the cycle is breaking me
Yeah, I refuse to live my life in a cage
Shackled down by built up hatred and rage
Still at 2am, I ask myself: Am I really as strong as I claim to be?
What if I fake it, will I make it or will I sink or swim?
Cause when I think out aloud, I always sounds so grim
But when I bottle this up, I overflow from the brim
I can't see straight, it's getting dim
My mind is a loaded gun
There's a bullet in the barrel that I can't outrun
I'm not as strong as I claim to be
If I'm being honest, I'm barely hanging on
Can I break the cycle? 'Cause the cycle is breaking me
