Don't overthink,
I know how you're feeling
But my hands are tied
Don't call my name,
The pain's avoidable
If the chase ends here
So please don't talk about it
Please don't waste your time on me
I'm starting to feel the guilt but I'm sorry
I won't assume the responsibility
Don't let it sink
I know it can be tiring
Falling in despair
I won't hold the blame
Everything is breakable
And truth is hard to bear
So please don't talk about it
Please don't waste your time on me
I'm starting to feel the guilt but I'm sorry
I won't assume the responsibility
This I can't control
You're trying to hold on
What we had grew old
Still you're trying to hold on
This I can't control
Your mind needs to move on
At least that's what I've been told
When I was trying to hold on
This I can't control, this I can't control
So please don't talk about it
Please don't waste your time on me
I'm starting to feel the guilt but I'm sorry
I won't assume the responsibility
Please don't talk about it
Please don't waste your time on me
I'm starting to feel the guilt but I'm sorry
I won't assume the responsibility
This I can't control
You're trying to hold on
What we had grew old
Still you're trying to hold on

Floater

Your outlines
Move past
And fade in no time
Through my eyes
Everything is so new
But I can’t follow you
Since you're here
Stay for a while
Since you’re near
I'll talk to you soon
But I can’t follow you
Do eye, do eye
Do eye floaters go away
Or do I, do I
Do I need them to stay?
Your reflection
Is so hard to find
Don’t blame me
It’s not that black and white
Why are you so colorblind?
Maybe you’re here
So I can watch you pass
Let alone fear
Alas, to my dismay
You're darting away
My eyes burn
My head turns
but we're still meeting
(You can't touch me)
Weigh your words
We're on bad terms
But I know what you mean
(Can't make you stay)
I know what you mean
Plastic on our heads
But we're still meeting
Weigh your words
We're still on bad terms
But I know what you mean
Do eye, do eye
Do eye floaters go away
Or do I do I
Do I need them to stay?
Your outlines
Move past
And fade in no time
Through my eyes
Everything is so new
But I can’t follow you

American Dream

I sent a letter but I never got one back
From my American dream
So untouchable and so right
You're my American dream
I remember when my baby got back
From his hero sacrifice
Still I promise I will never blink twice
You can listen to me anytime
It's for a higher good
A lesser evil
My American dream
I gave you my hand and we held our private love
Then let it go easy
To travel fast and find exotic lands
A tear of pride for all I whored for this greater plan
For the higher good
A lesser evil
My American dream
How many more days
Until I can open my eyes
That I've closed
For our dream to reside?
I only wanted to raise the flag
I only wanted to let them know
How many more lives until I can linger on
The joy that was promised to soon arrive?
I know my patience will have to strive
My willingness will need to show
Raise the flag
Hail the ghost
Let them know
Raise the flag
Hail the ghost
Let them know
I gave my mind up and I never want it back
My American dream
I've learn to hear, agree, steer, oblige
For the people's machine
It’s for a higher good
A lesser evil
My American dream
It's for a higher good
A lesser evil
My American dream

It's forgiven,
It's forgotten,
It's all good
And I know you said
I wasn't suppose to lie
But it's no good
It’s always so dark now
I walk out the door
I’m not as sane as I used to be
The floor here betrays me
I stumble and fall
Another stranger's sympathy for me
One, two, three
He’s looking for me
One, two, three
I hear him plea
One, two, three
You said I should be free
One, two, three
That’s not for me
(One, two, three, four)
He’s always around me
(One, two, three, four)
If I’m lost he will find me
(One, two, three, four)
Take over my body
(One, two, three, four)
Give me purpose to be
I know I stand on no ground, no ground
All my fears they've come back now, back now
I lose my grip and I fall down, fall down
All my sins come back around, around
Take over my body
Give me purpose to be
I know I stand on no ground, no ground

The streets are frozen and I don’t belong in this city
No I don’t belong in this city
And I just get older and I’m losing myself in this city,
I’m losing myself in this city
This weight on my shoulders never leaves, never goes
And there's a battle of grief between my mind and my soul
Time never waits for anyone
Always on the run that son of a gun
There is no limit, there is no limit
Time will never wait for anyone
So I’ll keep running, running,
Running 'till I lose my breath
Always running, running
Running’s what I do best
The streets are frozen and I don’t belong in this city
No I don’t belong in this city
And I just get older and I’m losing myself in this city,
I’m losing myself in this city
I remain calm although there are people everywhere
I feel no inner warmth with the cold in the air
Time never waits for anyone
Always on the run that son of a gun
There is no limit, there is no limit
Time will never wait for anyone
Still the chase is never ending
Only final when I lose my breath
Always running, running
Running’s what I do best
The streets are frozen and I don’t belong in this city
No I don’t belong in this city
And I just get older and I’m losing myself in this city,
I’m losing myself in this city
I see the hours pass by slowly
He said he never meant to feel this lonely
It’s as if he wants me back
My worn out face makes it hard to sympathize
My fading youth makes him think twice
Is this really what he wants from me?
Is this really what he wants from me?
Is this really what he wants from me?

YOU

Breathe in
Find your nirvana
Within yourself
You know it's not fair
I’m breathing on thin air
She’ll always be there
You know it's not fair
You know the truth isn't al...
(they're haunting me forever, haunting me forever)
...always true
You tell me secrets that I've known
(they're haunting me forever because of what)
For much longer than you
(they're haunting me forever because of what you made me do)
You made me feel so insecure, and I blame it all on you
Always searching for what hurts me most
Always looking for what makes me cry
It’s lovely how you're what's keeping me alive
Wrapped up in your love, in your care and in your lies
My hands they are shaking, I know that I'm breaking
but I'm alive, you're what's keeping me from dying
You see the problem is that I was not that true to you
And she corrupted my already twisted mind
And so I focus all the anger in my hands and I fuck her up, it's necessary
(they're haunting me forever because of what you made me do)
I know it was necessary
(I did this to save us so it's all on you, I blame it on you)
Always searching for what hurts me most
Always looking for what makes me cry
Breaking roots and branches from this tree
(Breathe in, Find
Within your)
She’ll always be there
You know it's not fair

Waiting Game
I'm still sane
How long can I
Waiting game
Still the same
How long can I
Waiting Game
Mother won't let me out, let me out
Father, he's full of doubt, full of doubt
They chained me as a little child
I was creature, belonging to the wild
Now they won't let me out, let me out
Waiting Game
I'm still sane
How long can I
Waiting game
Still the same
How long can I
Waiting Game
I'm not to blame
They only let me play the waiting game
My lover, he won't rescue me, he can't see clearly
That I gave him all my love with all my body
And I wished I told him before
That I am one of wanting more
I'm not a one night stand whore
Waiting Game
I'm still sane
How long can I
Waiting game
Still the same
How long can I
Waiting Game
I'm not to blame
They only let me play the waiting game
And they told me I should be patient,
And they told me time is a gift
And they told time is my savior
See, I'm not the waiting kind

The in between moment of your cold, cold stare
I look for new words and I try to prepare
One more battle to be fought
I put my armor on
But deep down I know you know its play pretend
It’s the voices in my head telling me there's no reason to look ahead
One more soldier down
I crawl on the ground
Don’t reason with your fear
If you want respect, then you should look away
You can lay it my bed while I comb my hair and I watch you fade
You never tried to grow
Never saw you so low
Don’t reason with your fear
If I choose to go
Remind me of all the times I chose to fall down
I never mean to disappoint
I understand if you want to be homebound

Your fingers slither through my skin,
I'm in
Watch my back, when I let my wild side win
We moved quickly but I was never ever scared
We moved quickly but I was never ever
And when we slow down its cause we're forever
We’ll slow down but we're here forever
My eyes close while I let my youth live on
I yearn to thrive, to let you make me more of a woman
You said it's really true, you said you really want me here forever
Your eyes show what you mean
Promise you'll remember that when times get rough
There’s more to what we do, and there's so much to look for together,
There’s so much to be seen
Promise you'll remember that when times get rough
Your fingers slither through my skin,
I'm in
Watch my back, when I let my wild side win
