Waiting
02:27
|

|
Every breath caught in my lungs
Begs me to listen to my speeding pulse
Every beat is crying out
I choose to hear it finally now
In my heart I feel
Something close to dread
And I don't know how
To pull it from my head
In my bones I know
This is not my home
I'm no longer waiting
To find where I belong
Every step has led to this
The world beyond the precipice
No leap of faith for in fact
I'm already falling
And if I keep going
I'm not coming back
In my heart I feel
(Every breath)
Something close to dread
(Caught in my lungs)
And I don't know how
(Begs me to listen)
To pull it from my head
(To my speeding pulse)
In my bones I know
(No leap of faith)
This is not my home
(For in fact)
I'm no longer waiting
To find where I belong

Wasting Time
03:50

Spilling these words
And verbs against a canvas
Don't be absurd and disturbed
Like I didn't plan this
Feel like I'm repeating myself
And everyone knows it
And those who notice
Won't dare oppose it
Am I cursed
To rehearse
The same old verse?
Doomed to a siren song
Until I somehow get worse?
Pick it up, or do I leave it?
What do I believe in?
Is this the life I wanna live in?
Pre-chorus
Don't say I never told you
It's not like I didn't try
If you listen
It is written
In every line
Chorus:
Am I defective? Or am I just infected?
I wanna live, not die inside
Wanna move on instead of wasting time
I'm not forsaking, I'm keeping my heart from breaking
I wanna overcome, not hide
Wanna get up instead of wasting my time
Verse 2:
Pain can't be measured by counting lines
The signs
Are sometimes
Hiding behind the lies
I can smile, say I'm doing fine
Bare my teeth like prison bars
While my happiness is doing time
I don't suppose you know what it feels like
To take all your goals and throw em to the wayside
When you look behind, in your hindsight
They remind and find you unrealized
Chorus:
Am I defective? Or am I just infected?
I wanna live, not die inside
Wanna move on instead of wasting time
I'm not forsaking, I'm keeping my heart from breaking
I wanna overcome, not hide
Wanna get up instead of wasting my time
Bridge:
My pendulum mood swings
Count slowly down
While I decay
I want to get up
Take a breath
Do anything but waste away
Chorus:
Am I defective? Or am I just infected?
I wanna live, not die inside
Wanna move on instead of wasting time
I'm not forsaking, I'm keeping my heart from breaking
I wanna overcome, not hide
Wanna get up instead of wasting my time

Artemis
03:47
|

|
Little lady
Will you take me far away from this?
Would you kindly
Come remind me I'm an optimist
Wishing on the stars
Constellation of hearts
Beating in the dark
Got a bow, but you're not Cupid
Hold it so, but you don't shoot it, oh
Mighty Hunter
You were once her inspiration's spark
Frown and fight tears
A thousand light-years lying, you went dark
Quarries that you chased
Stories that you placed
Drifting through outer space
Got a bow, but you're not Cupid
Hold it so, but you don't shoot it, oh
Artemis

Stargazers

Conversations from the heart
My wandering mind among the stars
When I didn't have the night sky
You brought outer space inside
We made our own galaxies and
We bonded instantly
Time's had its way on us
But you'll always be a friend to me
Pre-chorus:
That lantern has burned out
But you taught me to shine bright
Chorus:
In 10 long years
Look how much I've changed
Still baffling to me
How much I've stayed the same
Those nights I can't forget
I keep them safely locked away
Feels like a lifetime now
I'm walking proof I’ve come a long way
You said "come lay down with me
We'll be stargazers in the street"
I saw auroras in your voice
Drowning out the never-ending noise
We counted stars and sang our hearts out
To the beautiful view
That night, I'd never say it
I think I fell in love with you
Pre-chorus:
Couldn't get you off my mind
Even if I wanted to
Chorus
We made our own galaxies and
We bonded instantly
Time's had its way on us
But you'll always be a friend to me
We counted stars and sang our hearts out
To the beautiful view
That night, I'd never say it
I think I fell in love with you
That night, I'd never say it
I think I fell in love with you

Get Up
02:10
|
|||
|
The dark feels familiar tonight
These shadows outnumber my friends
This loneliness is how I make it
They're the ones that I let in
Get up off the floor
Take a breath
Do anything
Don't just hold your tongue
And let the pain
Be crippling
I can't move, I can't think, I can't speak
Less afraid of what the silence will do to me
Than if I voiced where the fear comes from
So I cry until my heart goes numb
Where did I think the dark would take me?
How did I think this tale would end?
Why do I love being self indulgent
When I know that will never win?
Check the vital signs
Feel your pulse
Still beating
Telling you the pain
Like the night
Is fleeting
Convinced no one wants to hear me
Instead I make it harder than it has to be
Tell myself no one wants me to stay
So I let the shadows take me away
Listen to yourself
I don't want to go
Listen to yourself
I don't want to go
Say it like you mean it
I don't want to go!
Make me believe it
I don't want to go!

Let Go
04:20
|
|||
|
Here in solitude and restlessness
I sink in sorrow in the night
Tried to separate the sickness
But something's still not right
Who am I and who has sent me?
I keep asking in my head
Questions of heart versus soul
Or am I just dead?
I imagine I could push the pedal to the floor
And let go
Trapped in shadow and sleeplessness
I can't escape if I try
Like a bird drenched in oil
I no longer can fly
Deep in my imagination
I take comfort in the pain
I visualize red release
And I feel no shame
I wish I could fall asleep
To never awake again
I imagine I could push the pedal to the floor
And let it all go
But there's something that would bind me
Set its hooks inside my skin
Something greater than myself
That would prove that I'm not worthless
But I wish I could let it all
Go

Shards
04:26
|
|||
|
Losing the pieces of me
I give away with every "please"
I bow to what you think I need
Despite how much I'm breaking
And I don't think I can
Be someone I can stand
Giving in to your demands
For your promised land
I won't turn my eyes from the glaring truth
I'm not living blind to thoughtless abuse
Don't think I've caught on
But I'm proving you wrong
And what you kept hidden, I finally see
Right through this prison you built for me
Is this what you wanted? To keep my on my guard, and
I don't remember how to trust effortlessly like I used to
I'm tired of giving myself up
Don't know who I am, but I won't be you
Losing the pieces of me
I hear the fragments crack beneath
These desperate, demanding feet
It's not so simple, I don't think
I can ever be whole again
But maybe with these shards I can
Build a life worth living in
A haven
Never had to go on my own
But I've gotta suffer to become strong
I'll fight through these fears
And make up for wasted years
You said you're righteous, that I'd be free
But that was the lie just to capture me
Is this what you wanted? I'm forever haunted
And I don't remember how to trust effortlessly like I used to
I'm tired of giving myself up
Don't know who I am, but I won't be you

Excuses
02:43
|
|||
|
I get stuck in memories of when you made me feel small
Some days I don’t feel like I’ve grown at all
Looking back at the last few years, it’s like I fell asleep
And forgot how to wake myself from this twisted dream
I remember your eyes
In that moment
Like a firebrand, burned in my mind
I was
Too young to see what you were doing was abusive
You said you loved me, so I made excuses
Can't say when you cross the line
You play the victim every time
Surprise, now I've found my spine
Stay in your place while I find mine
Now I have this unconscious obsession
I’m drawn to others like you cause I crave your affection
Somehow I always let them in, trick myself into thinking
That if they love me like you didn’t, you’d get some redemption
So I put my heart in the hands of those
Who wanna cut me into pieces, force me in a mold
And I know
I know I should ask for more, I know I’m worth it
But I don’t demand better cause I believe I don’t deserve it
Can't say when you cross the line
You play the victim every time
Surprise, now I've found my spine
Stay in your place while I find mine
In this life, you only get one shot and
Sometimes it’s better to leave behind what’s best left forgotten
And I know there will be days I can’t get up when I fall
But even if I can’t run, you best believe I’m gonna crawl
Because I’m breathing
These lungs have made it this far taking in oxygen
Even if my heart is shattered like glass, reflecting my past
It’s the perfect mirror because
I’m a bigger person than the girl I was

Restless

Verse 1
I'm wide awake, couldn't get sleep if I tried
I'd count sheep, but they all run and hide
The dark is no longer a friend of mine
Now I'm lonely in the night
Chorus
When you're on my mind, I'm nothing but restless
Watch as I unwind, you've left me helpless
Hourglass of my own design
Ticking away my precious time
Cause when you're on my mind
I'm nothing but restless
Verse 2
I toss and turn, insomnia my curse
The lonely ache in my bones growing worse
Even if I keep my eyes shut tight
There's no getting sleep tonight
Chorus
See how I'm smitten even though
You will never loose an arrow
I follow you through the night sky
You put constellations in their place
Make me obsess over the chase
Captivate me in my mind

Rope
04:14
|
|||
|
Verse 1:
Sending out your rope
Like you think that it's a lifeline
But it's a high wire
Watch me walk across
Eager not to fall, you catch me
But not to save me
(Let me go)
I can feel you pull me down
(Let me go)
I'm calling out
Chorus:
Can you hear me?
And will you listen?
Can you sympathize with what I'm missin?
And will you let me go
If I can't breathe under your hold
Do you think I won't escape
If you keep me locked away?
Verse 2:
Tie me on your leash
Like I just need to be controlled
But it's the gallows
Don't you feel me choke?
With your love around my neck
Such a lovely death
(Let me go)
I can feel you pull it tight
(Let me go)
But still I cry
Chorus
You can't ignore
My desperate screams anymore
Know that my voice
Will be the noise
Keeping you up at night
Until you decide
Can you hear me?
Do you want me to die?

Desperate
02:09
|
|||
|
You're reaching for the door
And pray to God he'll open the chance
To leave your life behind
For somewhere far away from all of this
Because behind your mask
You're desperate for love
And sometimes it's not the kind
That they are thinking of
It's a choice between misery
Or chasing happiness
So hold your head up high
Because you deserve this
You've been holding back
Locked away everything you felt
But this life is yours
And now it's time to live it for yourself
Because behind your mask
You're desperate for love
And sometimes it's not the kind
That they are thinking of
It's a choice between misery
Or chasing happiness
So hold your head up high
Because you deserve this
