What's the point of trying anymore?
I resolve to live a life of sorting out
The good and the bad and the next new fad that
Adds to the toll of highs to live for
I'm not especially fluent in the news
But a newer kind of "who?" makes it easier to "boo!"
But what can I say? I don't know anything
When it comes to speaking the truth
Fire
No more desire
For anything
No one can say
Your rearranged
World is a stage
I'm in a state
Ready, aim, and
Fire
No more desire
For anything
No one can say
Your rearranged
World is a stage
I'm in a state
Ready, aim, and
I'm so sick of talking all the time
I think my words forgot to rhyme
Meaning lost line by line
As my brain is slowly fried
Burnt out
On everything I love
But I tried so hard
To regain my own trust
Now I fall deeper down
In the bondage of my mind
Wonder why, deep inside I'm alight
So I turn on lovely
Hollow TV
Fire
No more desire
For anything
No one can say
Your rearranged
World is a stage
I'm in a state
Ready, aim, and
Fire
No more desire
For anything
No one can say
Your rearranged
World is a stage
I'm in a state
Ready, aim, and
Fire
No more desire
For anything
No one can say
Your rearranged
World is a stage
I'm in a state
Ready, aim, and

Scary
03:41
|

Resentment starts to grow
Your lies stink up my home
It’s getting old
And my pockets empty
My fears are taking hold
You’ve stolen all my hope
You took my soul
And now you left me
Don’t be so kind, unsanitary
You’re alive in January
Pay no mind and don’t be daring
Lost my life and now you scared me
Our home has lost appeal
You act on how you feel
It’s all surreal
It’s getting scary
Don’t be so kind, unsanitary
You’re alive in January
Pay no mind and don’t be daring
Lost my life and now you scared me
Don’t need you to save me
Good living comes with waiting
All is beyond belief
The world is getting scary
The world is getting scary
The world is getting scary
The world is getting scary

Distracted
04:36

So long
Open up
Far gone
Had enough
Don’t think too much
Don’t sleep in bed
Don’t test your luck
Don’t try to
Guess
What
The world has planned for us now
I’m too distracted to care
Sometimes my eyes just run amok
And follow everything I love
Sometimes the going just gets tough
And going just goes nowhere fast
And though I try to get away
I guess I’m getting through the pain
But what I’m getting ain’t enough
Because it’s getting really old
I tried to hide myself away
I tried to cry but I couldn’t say
I tried to try but at the end of the day
I tried I tried I tried
I try to do so many things
But I’m distracted
I try to do so many things
But I’m distracted
I try to do so many things
But I’m distracted
I try to do so many things
But I’m distracted
Why can’t I give it a chance
So I can make amends
I’m trying to make a change
But I can’t cause I’m too distracted
I think I might be getting sidetracked
I gotta focus
I think I might be getting sidetracked
I gotta focus
I think I might be getting sidetracked
I gotta focus
I think I might be getting sidetracked
I gotta forget
So long
Open up
Far gone
Had enough
Don’t think too much
Don’t sleep in bed
Don’t test your luck
Don’t try to
Guess
What
The world has planned for us now
I’m too distracted to care

Captive

Watching the wall
Watching the floor
Watching the steps
under the door
Watching the wall
Watching the man
Watching the tool
Held in his hand
I’m nearly dead
But kept alive
Strapped to the bed
But left to die
As the days pass me by
I’ve lost all track of time
No windows in my room
Pray he’ll leave the light on too
No use in crying for help
He can mute me with his belt
I have lost my will to survive
I have lost a reason to try
I feel that somethings loose
I might free myself soon
I’m sneaking off the bed
I’m jumping up the fence
I’m running far away
My body is in pain
I hear an awful bang
And feel the hole in my brain

Fading Away
04:09
|

Who’s the disappearer?
Stuck in this stare
Look into the mirror
Nothing is there
Crying in the absence
No one can hear
Dying in the excess
Nothing is clear
(I’m) fading away
Says the magic man
Buried in his hands
(I’m) fading away
Watching as the hands are
Made into glass
Waning with the future
Erasing the past
Endlessly mellow
Gone without death
Our translucent fellow
Won’t make a mess
(I’m) fading away
You can smell the fear
As he disappears
(I’m) fading away
My body’s gone
I can’t see
I can’t run
I can’t be
Is this life?
Is this death?
I don’t know
What comes next
Fading away
Now that he’s gone,
Who will sing his song?
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away

Slow Down
02:59

Slow down
I gotta keep it together
Unfound
There's nothing here
Be nice
But keep efficient
The price
To stay in fear
I can feel I'm in control
I am
Undeterred
Flying
Like a bird
I can feel I'm in control
Slow down
I gotta keep it together
Unfound
There's nothing here
I am
Undeterred
Flying
Like a bird
I can feel I'm in control
I can feel I'm in control

Underwater
03:52
|

It's getting harder to breathe
It's getting harder to see
Blue turns to black
Black disappears
I'm underwater
I can't stop from drawing
's there's no air to breathe
Swallow the sea
Water fills me
I'm underwater
All the pretty colors in the sea
Are begging me to fall asleep
I want to move up, start to breathe
Too bad the ocean buried me
I can watch the bubbles
As they leave my lips
I'm really in trouble now
'Cause I'm underwater
I'm losing oxygen
Just look at the shape I'm in
Resting my head
On the seabed
I'm underwater
All the pretty colors in the sea
Are begging me to fall asleep
I want to move up, start to breathe
Too bad the ocean buried me
I'm underwater
I'm underwater
I'm underwater
I'm underwater

Undone For You
05:30
|

Your breath is in my lungs
Lately I've been running out
Your hair is in my skin
Some things I can't shed
Your blood is in veins
Paint my body red
Your thoughts are in my head
You're in my head
I thought I could count on you
What I thought I knew was wrong
Now I'm coming
Undone for you, Undone for you
But in my mind I know
I'm done with you, I'm done with you
No matter how I try
to run from you, I run to you
I sit, unravelling
I wanted to, I wanted to
Your words are in my mouth
They won't let me speak out
Your tools are on my floor
I can't be fixed anymore
On infinite repeat
The flavor of defeat
I'm just a jigsaw
That won't be solved
I thought I could count on you
What I thought I knew was wrong
Now I'm coming
Undone for you, Undone for you
But in my mind I know
I'm done with you, I'm done with you
No matter how I try
to run from you, I run to you
I sit, unravelling
I wanted to, I wanted to
I'm coming to, I'm coming to
I guess I'm just too late
I'm coming to, I'm coming to
Keep talking 'cause I'm not gonna listen
I'm coming to, I'm coming to
It's now or never, baby
I'm coming to
I'm coming undone
I'm coming undone
I'm coming undone
I'm coming undone
I'm coming undone
