Oh god what have they done? They've taken from me all I've loved. Separated me from my blood (crushing my lungs). Oh god after all you've done, pushed away all who's ever loved you. The drugs you've abused left you so confused, your vision of love misconstrued. Or was it all just black & blue?
This wasn't how it had to be, but so I'm told misery loves company, & I'm not going alone. I'll make it known, this wasn't how it had to be. But in the end who will be there for you? Neither friend nor family.
And with the essence of adolescence leaving me, I'm nothing more, I'm nothing more than bones. I'm nothing more, I'm nothing more than bones. It was all so synthetic, i can see through your aesthetic wall. You're not apologetic, it's kind of poetic the justice of it all.
This is how it had to be and I'm no longer in misery. You're all alone in your narcotic zone. So this is how it had to be, no ones around to help you see what you've become in the end.
You have stolen from me all i dreamed, could of achieved. What made me believe that you could change?

Of Good Intentions
03:44
|

My Intentions were pure in all my endeavors. So how'd it get this way? I've watched the spectrum fade to an all familiar grey. With the weight of my disdain, this all turned a different shade. Something i wish hadn't stayed. Every night it's replayed in my head.
I lie awake at night, not terrified of death, only life. And how long I've got left to relinquish my regret. Will i be satisfied with my place and time in your life? I'll make it right so you can dream at night.
Is It Over? The feeling i get in my chest and in my head. The numbness growing closer on every word. I tied to stay close, with a father that's missing, i kept you distant. Believe me, it's better this way. Oh i just hate that i am the reason for all your pain. I hate that I'm the reason for all your pain, i promise you, my heart was in a better place. I never wanted a single tear on your face.
I am the reason why you lie awake every night terrified of your life. Not showing whats inside, and it's justified. Was it right to take you from that life? It eats away at me, tearing at the seams.
And i swear my intentions were the best,

Chasing Serenity
04:23
|
|||
|
This was all flawed from the very start. My Whole heart wasn't in it, indifferent places all at once.
And if i could be a part of the human condition i would of tried.
And i have so many times,
There's no symmetry, just faded lines.
Where is the in between?
This will always be just some shared history, not how its supposed to be
After all you're kin to me.
You've let me too many times on my own.
And in the bitter cold i have found my home.
You're only here now cause I'm somewhat known,
Just to think after 18 years you would have grown.
You're only here cause there's something you want.
I'm not the same person you pushed around.
I'll have you know i wont let this go,
Separate this from my bones as it eats away and erodes.
Just know where I'm coming from.
I won't stop until it's done & I've said what I've wanted:
(I've let this slip away from me.
I've forgiven you for everything.
But there's something missing & in the way of the progress that I've made.
No longer dwelling on the past or looking back,
I'm chasing my destiny & what's in front of me.
I'm chasing serenity with the life that's been given to me.
Not looking back what's in the past.
Everything I've ever dreamed is in front of me, within my reach...)

Displaced
04:49
|
|||
|
I fear a life, i fear life without. Without a purpose, without a meaning.
I fear a life, i fear life without. Without a purpose, without a meaning. Where everything from my past determines my future.
Where my present's deterring & overwhelming my future.
But that's life.
At least i feel alive.

New Definitions
03:41
|
|||
|
Everywhere i go it's the same old thing,
Familiar faces of these people i hate.
Same situation, just a different place.
I cant tell if this is real or fake.
Is this really happening?
Is this really just a dream?
I can't believe..
Give me your hand I'll take you far from this land.
Show you that everything you'd ever need is here beside me.
(I saw you waiting for & wanting more than what you had)
And i will do everything to keep you safe.
But just for tonight save yourself.
So cut your losses, the past is the past.
So let it go, and give me a chance.
And i will show you that i can do everything that i can to keep you safe, here with me.
To keep you safe right by my side, I'm doing all i can.
To be the better man.
I'm doing all i can.

Outlier

Well I've been tested too many times, after all these years i am still tried & true.
Who are you to me?
Nothing more than a self deity, It's eating away at me.
I swear to god, if i ever find you had spoken her name,
I'd tear it from your filthy teeth.
Make it hard for them to identify what you've become.
When everything you love has gone away just for that little touch of gold, Where will you go when you're all alone?
Where will you go?
Everything you have loved.
Everything you have loved turns to stone.

Empty Hands
06:40
|
|||
|
This was my only escape,
From the hardship and heartache pressing down on me.
(And its become too hard just to breathe.)
And i am sorry for everything and everyone that i brought down in the process.
And i can only hope I'm forgiven in the end.
You think you know my story, you think you know everything. (You think you know)
But my hands are no longer tied & I've been forgiven.
And now that I've finally got my feet on the ground i will never, (I will never) no i will never be shaken.
And if you could see the truth in all the lies I've told, you couldn't look me in the eyes.
And if you only knew what I've been through, you could realize i did this to myself.
Bringing down all of those that surrounded me.
Just because all of my self doubt that keeps bringing me down,
And my insecurities just eat away & get the best.
I'm sorry for everything.
I'm sorry for this.
This is my life & I'm doing just fine.
If I were to die, I'd Be Satisfied
