you left me locked out, you kept me locked in
you're playing a game that I can’t win
your silence all night, it keeps me awake
don’t know how much abuse I can take
no life no friends I need to break out of this
swinging at the end of my rope every fucking day
no life no friends missed chances never replaced
no trust dead ends all this time I want it erased
always locked out I can’t go back in my time and choices are wearing thin
confused and stranded making my life a living hell
a panicked phone call ends the night, I’m crushed I’m bleeding nothings right
ten miles down, I’ll never learn, the only bridge I’m down to fucking....BURN
ignite the flame, burn it all down the last time I step foot in this town
I’m free to come and I’m free to go, I’m getting my life back in control
all of my anger and all of my hate
soon to meet their timely fate
I’m cleaning the slate and I’m starting again
these ashes are cold never to be seen again

Find My Way

a life filled with regret
words unspoken things left unsaid
and every word I do say
lingers in the back of my head
sleepless nights, days with no fight
weeks and weeks where nothing goes right
dreams I can’t remember
not sure I’d want to if I fucking could
I’ve been dealt a bad hand
but I won’t fold
every day's a struggle
just to get out of fucking bed
searching for some answers
that I won’t find till I’m fucking dead
you don’t fucking know me
and you’ll never know what’s inside my head
or inside my heart
but I’ll keep it to myself and hope for the best
I’ll hope for the best
this world's a cold place
and I’ll face it alone
I’ll find my way
cast aside
I’ll walk alone

What I Am

fuck you
other words were left out
cause you should remember what this was about
I still have the places
and the times in my mind
was then and now what I am
what I am
is not something concrete
I choose to not be complete
and have responsibility
towards the wrong been done to me
all experience in my life
is clay to mold a better being
I refuse to defend
refuse to remain
a way I can't change

As Days Pass
01:38

those who gave words without something done
pave the roads never led to anyone
all that counts is what we're leaving with
but don't waste a raised fist
if it opens it is empty
something placed replaces what was missed
it's when you can look back after giving to an end
it's going your own way and bringing who you can
a pledge to none
without the other
we're all writing in sand
but you can sign with another
as days pass you will still have the difference
I could never survive with abandon without lyric
I never thought you'd love to hear it
some will leave and we aren't to blame
even with distance we still feel the same
I will carry that weight when there's no place for home save this place that we are

Exhale
02:51

avoided words, distant thought
a letter of intent, a selfish plot
a manifestation of years of neglect
a lone thought process forced to reflect
these systems of support
nothing more than hollow words
spoken without a real intent other than to cloak the void
a severed vein, 13 coils
irrational thoughts that plague my mind
retreat to the dark
my place of content
escaping from this useless blind
these systems of support
nothing more than hollow words
spoken without a real intent other than to cloak the void
something this heavy
can only be moved with time
alone in my head
I can’t deny the hopelessness and the pain
claw myself out from the dark
exhale the life from within my heart
I don’t want you to feel this way
