Your Words
01:31

your words don't mean shit
but they keep spilling out
nothing good to say so shut your mouth
heard them long enough won't let it bring me fucking down
your words don't mean shit
DON'T MEAN SHIT
so run your fuckin mouth and act like you've got a clue
but don't be surprised when you look around and it's just you
no one hears you now
no one hears you now
not a fucking sound

Foundations
01:53

Foundations built
from broken bonds and friendships lost
And you say you don't need a crutch
But you've lost touch
with everyone
And every single thing
you've ever loved
Out of sight
Out of mind
Out of time
You've crossed the line
I've seen it all
a thousand times
Line for line
You turn your back again
And I just can't pretend
It's alright
have you moved on or have you just lost sight?
Picking up the pieces, wont work this time
You've crossed the line
What's done is done
It's too late to change

Eraser Marks

Eraser marks on a page
Living my life in divided lines
on sheets of paper attached to my spine
I've closed the book and no longer look at any surface deeper than mine
The pen is in an idle hand
attempting to write lyrics to an unfinished song
The song is fueled by my breath
In my throat what I wrote stings the notes and begs to sing along
Because the words that come out now sound wrong
Eraser marks on a page leave me blind

Good Riddance

turned your back
things that i
believed in
never meant a thing to you
blended in
but now i see
from the start you were never true
played the part
to make friends
gone after a year or two
now you're out
on to something new
right on to the next fucking trend or cool thing to do
left it behind
went your own way
and i'm still here
HERE TO STAY
kids like you
come and go
hanging out at every show
for a while
you play along
you fooled me once but now i know
what goes around
comes around
i know one day you'll reap what you sow
got no heart
it's just not there
i'm so fucking sick of you now it's time to go
left it behind
went your own way
and i'm still here
here to stay
you dropped out
YOU TURNED YOUR BACK
good riddance
don't come back

No Time Left
02:39

Spent so much time turning away
There's so much we feel but so little we say
Fill ourselves with mercy but the cold gaze we show
Sees heart as a disease till disease is all we know
Voices loud when talking down
We mute them when speaking up
Ears become deaf to the sound
As unblind eyes stay shut
I've seen so many cemented by regret
When all the words we let in we let ourselves forget
It takes strength to see it's worth anything at all
There is nothing burning less through my skull
Than the tick of the clock I cannot stall
You can only give yourself worth
if you live with, not against, your faults
And there's no time left
Because we weren't promised time
