I'm never gonna be the same again. The songs I used to play repeatedly Just bring back tainted memories. I don't know where I went wrong. I was carful and so young. It's the same thing every time. I overthink what words to say And act out every scene in my head. Can I leave this all behind? I really fucked it up this time. Once upon a time I told myself everything was great But it's always raining In the sunshine state. I've got nowhere else to run. But I've always been the one who said "Keep your chin up And move on" I just want to be left alone. When did my heart get so cold? It's a long and ugly road. It's dark and I can hear rain crashing on my window. I'm doing 85 and wondering if I ever mattered. If I drive off this bridge and died, Who would cry at my wake? Well It keeps me awake at night, Knowing that the world never had a care for me. Well as story goes, I get a little older And paint the image Of a boy who lost control.

I spent last night Writing songs about you. I spent my summer Indoors Watching days just pass me by. And I know that it's sad But it's hard for me to understand That I just need to do whatever it is that makes me happy. Take me back. Back to when days seemed a little brighter. Without these black clouds Stalking every move I choose to make. And I know that It's sad That it's hard for me to understand That I just need to do Whatever it is that makes me happy. I'm knocking down these walls Hoping to find some closure. With each brick wall that falls that feeling creeps a little closer. And I'm sure you've heard it all before. Same complaints. Just different metaphors. It's gotten to the point Where I can't feel happy anymore. I know that it's sad But it's hard for me to understand That I just need to do Whatever it is that makes me happy.

Neck Deep 02:23
Well I know you wont believe Half of the words I have to say. But if you'd hear me out tonight It'll keep my mind at bay Because I'm running out of time And I'm here trying to figure out Just exactly what I want to say And what to talk about. Let's talk about the trouble That I've caused all of my life Or How I feel like an outcast Cause I don't believe in Christ. I always seem to be the problem To the ones I hold so close And all the years that flew by me left me feeling like a ghost. I take deep breaths when I start to panic. I'm still neck deep, Sinking in the Atlantic. All these long nights Are becoming a habit When I just want some sleep. I'm tired of building walls That separate my friends from me. I just wish I had a conscience With a voice of honesty. I know I've asked this question at least a thousand times. But I'm still waiting for an answer That should come with your reply. But all I hear is silence And it drives up a wall. It reminds me that a hero's Something I don't need at all. What I needed was a promise that this hell would pass with time. Then maybe this would help me Find some fucking peace of mind. So I I take deep breaths when I start to panic. I'm still neck deep, Sinking in the Atlantic. All these long nights Are becoming a habit When I just want some sleep.

Outskirts 03:55
I don't want To be apart of this. Honestly What's the point of it. Reoccurring themes about feeling lonely and strung out. When the one thing that I want Is to feel happy. I'm living on the outskirts and I'm Looking for an answer As to why I'm such a fuck up While I'm circling the drain. I've lost all will to get by. Gave this home the Irish goodbye. I'm just trying to have an input But the world just tunes me out.

Paper Hearts 03:00
We climbed the highest tree And watched the world below. We hung our paper hearts With rope and sorrow. The ghost of who I was Still haunts this aching brain. This empty feeling's Getting hard for me to explain. The burden of the promises I never learned how to keep Makes me feel like the Ground will quake beneath my feet. I disintegrate Before I get the nerve to call cause I'm too scared to hear A voice ring through these empty halls. Well this is looking like the end so Im saying bye to all the friends Who have ever had a care for me. If I'm going up in smoke, I'm making sure that Im Proud of every chance I took. The burden of the future Always sends a chill down my spine. I'm driving down a dead end road, Ignoring caution signs. Rip out my epilogue. My future's still not guaranteed. Just throw the ashes of my Confidence into the sea.

I'm a mess And I know that I wont be Anything more than this. "Just take deep breaths." Is all they can tell me But that just leads to stress. I will try To paint on a smile Just for my parents sake. Everyone Seems to know what they're doing but I just can't relate. Nothing's worse than Feeling all alone. I was cursed with A heart made out of stone And it drags me down. Down into this hole That I dug myself. Someone send me help.

It's been a few months and I know how much we all Have grown since last September. I just miss the way Things used to be. My plans were bigger then and I Was scared to death By how different life would be. Now I'm feeling empty Because My friends felt like home. Now I'm homesick and all alone. Take me back to when Life was simpler. When I wasn't apathetic Towards everything life threw at me. It's lack of motivation. Every step I take Is in a backwards motion and I was hoping that you'd notice That I haven't been the same for weeks. This semester is ripping me apart. I was dead weight from the very start And I've been lost these past few weeks. I've been going through past conversations and Its crazy how much life has changed us. But we're growing distant by the day. But My friends felt like home Now I'm homesick And all alone. Take me back to when Life was simpler and I wasn't apathetic Towards everything life threw at me. It's lack of motivation. Every step I take Is in a backwards motion. I was hoping that you'd notice That I haven't been the same for weeks. I've never felt so fucking weak. I think it's time that I admit, You all moved on and I panicked. Cause I'm scared and so confused About what I'm supposed to do But I'm slowly getting there.

Disclosure 05:01
I've got 10 bucks That says you never gave a fuck About me or about us. You have a hole deep In your heart and you try desperately To fill it up With some Hollywood cliche That never lasts a month. I know I'm coming off a little harsh. Maybe I cared a bit too much. I think back to that night inside my car. Parked outside your moms place. You played your mixtape And on that night was when you told me "Not that I know much about being in love, but a part me thinks it would feel like this song" I've got a habit of Not catching every hint you drop. Like the fact that you Play the same three records over and over again And how they sing about love. And that's all you want to feel. I hope you find it one day, The love that you crave. Like the song that made you say "Not that I know much about being in love, but a part me thinks it would feel like this song. So I play it over and over again."

1929 04:00
I should have kissed you When I had the chance. I was sorta hoping You'd understand That I would trade A thousands Yesterday's Just to see your smile. Cause my darling this road goes on for miles. Self Pity days I'm locked up in my room. I fall asleep and dream of you Because that's all that I can do. I wonder why We're two worlds apart. To hear your voice Would cause the world to stop And catch their breath. But you had to move away And I didn't have the guts to say It's the little things That stole my heart. It's killing me That you're so far away. And as it seems I'm balanced on This fucking edge. Should I spill my guts And play the risk Of losing one of my Closest friends. Cause I've been hoping, we could be more than friends. Yea I'm hoping, we can be More than friends.
