Start Over
02:22
|

living in the moment and living for the moment
they're two different things
are you too scared to wake up in the morning
because of what it'll bring
some people just live like
they forget they're dying
and others try to justify what they're doing
you know they're lying
i need to get some things straight from you
what are you really trying to do
and once this all falls apart
will you know where to start from here
it's either all on or all off
there's no in between sometimes
what is it you're trying to do again
did you forget, you read your lines
you can't start over

Troubled Hearts
03:30
|

frantic lives lead frantic heads
they're running wild in the street
minds racing on empty
bringing thoughts of fear and defeat
what they're saying about you now
what they're saying again
it won't resolve with time
it'll go straight to your head
troubled hearts can't take it
they'll wither away
when the bridge that holds you up
is collapsing day by day
as the weight coming down's over bearing
these floorboards start to cave
there are some things you'll never forget
the things you don't want to save
if convincing wasn't enough
believing is even more
the ridicule that's all around
is dragging you to the floor
and who's to say what they're not to feel
pulling harder again
they won't realize what they've done
until it's too late and when

Day By Day
03:28
|

it's hard to be an optimist
when the odds are stacked up to the ceiling
it's hard to plan anything for anything
when you can't comprehend what you're feeling
day by day this ebb and flow
it's ripping apart everything i know
it's hard to know just what to do
or even second guess you're right
when anxiety and longing
they eat away at you every night
day by day this rise and fall
it won't stop until, until it takes it all
until it takes it all it's everything i know
|

Keep
03:02
|
|||
lying through your teeth
you'll never feel the same
what's so much better about then
when you know the shame
what are you trying to keep
less is more now and then
you think i know what to do
and i don't need any more help
but i'd be lost, lost without you
you're holding onto what doesn't hold onto you

On and On
02:30
|
|||
here we sit in present tense
trying for our lives to make any sense
it only seems to work half the time
the other half we'll lie we'll say we're fine
thoughts of detachment and of regret
i think of thoughts i'd wish i'd soon forget
spent this whole time running looking ahead
trying not to hear a word that was said
it goes on
and it goes on and on and on
and don't try to prove me wrong
we're fighting this whole time
for what we knew this long
blurring lines of what can become real
by living things we know we feel
trying hard to keep our focus again
and when the picture's hazy
then i know that's when
it goes on

the current rushes over me
the flood won't seem to drain
the tide has washed above
all the ground that won't remain
i'm sitting here in silence
if i talk the water fills
my body up with so much ease
like gallons of sleeping pills
but it won't last, i'm sinking fast
the way this ocean filled up
was quite a sight to see
no life boat or no life vest
could come close to saving me
the recollections of my life
they're now heavy, cold and wet
the pounding waves above me
they're ones i won't forget
but it won't last, i'm sinking fast
but it won't last, i'm drowning

Come Close
02:01
|
|||
things they happen
and times will change
some things might get better
and some worse with age
what did you like
what do you regret
you'll always remember
what you're trying to forget
you can try you might come close
but you'll never shake the decisions that you chose
that's all for now
and you need to figure
do the shadows of your past
keep getting bigger
what's with you for life
and what's just for now
is there any way to tell
any way somehow

We Were Wrong
03:14
|

regret's a six letter word
that comes to mind
when i think of things
things that i can't hide behind
so many ways to say
what we could've done
the list of what matters now
it'll always come to none
and there's not a single thing
that we could do
no matter how many times
of how many things you've been through
no matter how many times
we'll all be gone
soon enough we'll all be gone
somewhere along the line
we thought we knew this all along
we were wrong
and silent days
lead to silent nights
it almost certainly
leads to constant endless fights
and we were
|

Composure
02:01
|
|||
any words they start to shake
compassion now it slows
nothing's getting through
and composure now it goes
and it goes
an anxiety is racing
my lungs are caving in
nothing's getting through
my patience can't wear thin
you can't wear
|

Momentum
03:38
|
|||
how long before we slow down
'cause right now we just move
like we've got somewhere to go
or got something prove
and it's fine that we do the same
we're living like we're just too young
we're singing our songs now
until we can't sing what we've sung
everyone's on the bandwagon
that's been around for too long
and make sure if you take it
you don't wind up in some place
you don't belong
