Missing 02:40
I have seen what you can be A predator with a taste for me Will you see what I have seen? Or will you live on, with blades for teeth? I have seen This is where Where I break free Get up and get out You lost your way Sick and tired of so much same Sick and tired of every day Get up and get out You lost your way Same old same shit everyday Get up and get out You lost your way Sick and tired of so much same Stop No, we can't talk this over I'm done with this shit I am out Promises you made Are empty broken missing now Everything you claimed Was a fucking lie Promises you made Are empty broken missing now Everything you said Was a fucking lie You try to barricade that open wound We're pushing through (pushing through) With or without you I see the folly of living with No shame Backed into broken walls I haven't felt this small Red-eyed and ready to appeal You'd give up anything To see what you can't be Your new life, enjoy Away from me Away from me Away from me Away from me --- Take your next step Knowing these deep wounds Will bleed me dry Silence is golden via you and I Stillness corrupts what's left In peace of mind Well, now. See this? It's a way of life Capsized It's your fucking life See this? It's your way of life Capsized

Numbing 02:55
Have heart, forgive me, darling "You're losing what captured me" You say it's mind over matter But your mind is going numb Said you wanna live forever, Now you've gotta go alone Take this into context And maybe you will learn Make note of potent action We see the pain of choice We see the pain of choice Gettin' sick with the hate and the bullshit Gettin' sick with the craving for gain Gettin' sick with these cutthroat feelings Gotta get in touch with the simple things Questions Discussions These fairy-tale ideals We are one in the same Drive is what separates Have heart, forgive me, darling "You're losing what captured me," You say it's mind over matter But your mind is going numb Said you wanna live forever Now you gotta go alone Gotta go alone My pride objects Your mind has failed To receive --- Have you seen the way you treat The people that you meet And ever stop to wonder What if that were me? Revise your thoughts You repeat this state Save it for those with dreams Of lesser acclaim I'm all out of pity This change is for the best I've been thinking that I spend too much time Being bitter And oh, so cold

Sacrificing 02:23
It's like Back here once again Am I me or my friends? And I'm the only one That won't talk but listens If I could find a way To build a backbone From burden You'd know I'm not a lost cause yet Running back, running back To the right scene I'm falling apart The influence is deafening Rotting to bones With the worms underneath A sight more than appealing Let go Some lives are meant to uphold You're a lost cause Keep dreaming kid Can we take some time to assess The meaning of truth And where you began? You never began (You stop so willingly And I wonder where it goes) One more night It's against my abuse To take kindly to you Running back, running back To the right scene I'm falling apart The influence is deafening I cannot begin to think of where I went wrong It starts now, the end of past regrets That subtle sting of rain dripped Down your neck It's the last you'll ever get We dismiss, we fall apart Please hold on We dismiss, we fall apart Please hold on We dismiss, we fall apart Please hold on We dismiss, we fall apart Please hold on
