Crippled 03:30
They say it's better to just know your place And be happy with those things that you have It does nothing when you're sad And some days I feel like I'm OK I grab my keys start driving then I can't breathe And slowly I'm slipping away Hard to feel happy when this life's been so sad It's hard to let go of those things that you’ve had And maybe someday ​you will get those things back But for now just let them go And I’ll find a way, I’ll find a way And I write these songs in my bedroom at night They're late night phone calls to old friends about my problems I hope that someone is listening Cause some days I feel like I'm OK Then reality hits me I'm losing it What I want is getting farther away Hard to feel happy when this life's been so sad It's hard to let go of those things that you’ve had And maybe someday ​you will get those things back But for now just let them go And everyone says forget the past Well thanks for the obvious Cause I hadn't really thought of that Except for every single day I'm awake And I can't escape what makes my shoulders break There's no heaven to help and no devil to pay I swear by it all I'll find a way, I'll find a way I’m going to find a way to make you make you stay Hard to feel happy when this life's been so sad It's hard to let go of those things that you’ve had And maybe someday ​you will get those things back But for now just let them go For now you’re on your own

I’ll never be the voice, I’ll never be your favorite line Like ones that echo through time, mine will always die Stay far away and your heart will never break Stay far away​, you won’t make those mistakes I’m like the hero in those tales And sometimes heroes prevail They save the day but they ruin everything around them Tell me you can’t go wrong this time, I’ll find a way I’ll never be the voice, I’ll never be your favorite line Like ones that echo through time, mine will always die Stay far away and your heart will never break Stay far away​, you won’t make those mistakes I’m like the hero in those tales And sometimes heroes prevail They save the day but they ruin everything around them Tell me you can’t go wrong this time, I’ll find a way There’s no sleeping, there’s no dreaming in this bed There’s no shutting down my head When I smile it’s misleading, showing teeth but there’s no feeling And in my guts there’s something burning and the feeling’s disconcerting Everyone has found their way and I still cling to the same things From my past they said forget it, if I could then I would do it I’m like the hero in those tales And sometimes heroes prevail They save the day but they ruin everything around them Tell me you can’t go wrong this time, I’ll find a way We’ll find a way

Dying Light 04:16
Three chords had said more to me than any written page In textbooks that I had read And I wouldn't be a wash up if I never got in the water It's just sad that in the process I lost her I never tried to break the ground that was laid to waste before me I just tried to get someone to understand My heart’s still on fire like it was when I was 18 It's a burn that I don't want to feel anymore My heart’s still on fire like it was when I was 18 It's a burn that I don't want to feel anymore And these songs bring back all of my favorite memories That I wish I could forget And all of my best friends are now faces on the Internet Digitized not intimate, disconnected I never tried to break the ground that was laid to waste before me I just tried to get someone to understand My heart’s still on fire like it was when I was 18 It's a burn that I don't want to feel anymore My heart’s still on fire like it was when I was 18 It's a burn that I don't want to feel anymore And it's hard for me to admit that everything is over So we'll say, "This is no time to be sober." My heart’s still on fire like it was when I was 18 It's a burn that I don't want to feel anymore My heart’s still on fire like it was when I was 18 It's a burn that I don't want to feel anymore My heart’s still on fire like it was when I was 18 It's a burn that I don't want to feel anymore My heart’s still on fire like it was when I was 18 It's a burn that I don't want to feel anymore It’s a burn that I don’t want to feel anymore

Therapy 02:33
It was my way to freedom now I've got nothing left I've lost memories, I've lost friends but gained regrets I never wanted the fame ​just someone to understand And say, "Hey man, I'm feeling what you say” Cause sometimes, well, I feel the same. When I'm alone stuck in my home and I get the shakes Cause the songs no longer help to pull me through Cause none of them bring me back to you Won't bring me back to you You're gone for good Failing at every effort to bring you back to me But writing songs and reading poetry It only works in movies and foolish teenage dreams Well it's hard to dream when you can barely sleep Hashing out all your past mistakes When your alone stuck in your home and you get the shakes Cause the songs no longer help to pull me through Cause none of them bring me back to you Won't bring me back to you When I'm alone in my home I get the shakes Wish they were fake, wish that I could forget this place Cause the songs no longer help to pull me through Cause none of them bring me back to you Won't bring me back to you Never wanted much of anything Still got your back, this is our therapy Cause the songs no longer help to pull me through Cause none of them bring me back to you Won't bring me back to you

Never Harder 03:34
Well is this the way that we are Cause you said you don’t feel the same anymore And these days I’m feeling the same And we'll exchange all those years ​for new pain We're not the same not sometimes but every day Never harder now to see through new eyes Never thought that I would wake up and call this life Never harder now to see through new eyes Never thought I wouldn’t be brave enough to fight Just hold on tight, baby hold on tight I’m giving into pain and lips and cheap thrills But it doesn’t feel the same anymore Each time it feels like a mistake And I know it’s for the best that you left And I’m still a wreck, I’m still wasted just every fucking day now Never harder now to see through new eyes Never thought that I would wake up and call this life Never harder now to see through new eyes Never thought I wouldn’t be brave enough to fight Just hold on tight, baby hold on tight And it’s not like we weren’t trying to better than this And it’s not like we weren’t trying to better than this But what’s the point if I can’t be fixed Never harder now to see through new eyes Never thought that I would wake up and call this life Never harder now to see through new eyes Never thought I wouldn’t be brave enough to fight And it’s not like we weren’t trying to better than to be better than this

Who I Am 02:26
You can't wash away the bad that's inside I'll never change, it's who I am A monster, a fake, what's it going to take for me to wake up This grin’s a front I want to change but there's things that are keeping me Always tied down to this place Trying to find the light, I carry on It's when the lights go out and I'm all alone I’ll tell the dark the truth about me and you Nobody else knows what's buried in my soul, mistakes I can't let go Still I go on I want to change but there's things that are keeping me Always tied down to this place The same sad songs, the same sad lines They always get stuck in my mind Trying to find the light, I carry on I want to change but there's things that are keeping me Always tied down to this place The same sad songs, the same sad lines They always get stuck in my mind

Ignite 02:44
So we can light our way, so we can light our way I'll burn this down So we can light our way, so we can light our way I'll burn this down​ ​I’ll burn it down We take these roads that never end Try to ignite a new world to feel like this was home We take these roads that never end Try to ignite a new world to feel like this was home So we can light our way, so we can ease our pain I'll burn this down So we can light our way, so we can feel the same I'll burn this down I’ll burn it down We take these roads that never end Try to ignite a new world to feel like this was home We take these roads that never end Try to ignite a new world to feel like this was home Just stay with me, just be still, we'll burn and rebuild Just stay with me, just be still, we'll burn and rebuild We take these roads that never end Try to ignite a new world to feel like this was home We take these roads that never end Try to ignite a new world to feel like this was home
