1. New Plagues
Sell my fucking soul with little to no reward
I'm plagued to be given less always expecting more
Contemplating stepping off the edge
Left hanging by a thread unraveling to my end
Shut my eyes from the mess I'm in
Pull me out from the wreckage
I won't go out quietly
Won't go out and fade to nothing
Shut my eyes from the mess I'm in
Pull me out from the wreckage
I won't go out quietly
Won't go out and fade to nothing
Fade to nothing
Buried my dreams It gave new life to the world around me
Surrendered hope when I was empty
So I feel your pain if you gave what you had
And never got it back
Shut my eyes from the mess I'm in
Pull me out from the wreckage
I won't go out quietly
Won't go out and fade to nothing
Shut my eyes from the mess I'm in
Pull me out from the wreckage
I won't go out quietly
Won't go out and fade to nothing
And when my time is up
Did I give enough
Don't wanna be replaced
I won't be erased
And when my time is up
I hope I gave enough
Don't wanna be replaced
I won't be erased
Shut my eyes from the mess I'm in
Pull me out from the wreckage
I won't go out quietly
Won't go out and fade to nothing
Shut my eyes from the mess I'm in
Pull me out from the wreckage
I won't go out quietly
Won't go out and fade to nothing
2. Nowhere Left To Sink
I just want to feel
Seems like I'm holding on
Never know what's real
Until it's all gone
Does it hurt to know I can't get out
Well I'm cursed it shows all around
I know that these failures will not end
Never seen the bright side anywhere
Just when I think
There's nowhere left to sink
I find that these failures are in my head
In my head
It's getting harder to see the forest from the trees
And what I can't avoid keeps coming back to me
Complacent while I kill these empty thoughts
Stuck in a place I swore that I'd forgot
Does it hurt to know I can't get out
Well I'm cursed it shows all around
I know that these failures will not end
Never seen the bright side anywhere
Just when I think
There's nowhere left to sink
I find that these failures are in my head
In my head
Write me off it's all that I know
Wasting words when I should just let go
Failures will not end
Failures will not end
I know that these failures will not end
Never seen the bright side anywhere
Just when I think
There's nowhere left to sink
I find that these failures are in my head
I know that these failures will not end
Never seen the bright side anywhere
Just when I think
There's nowhere left to sink
I find that these failures are in my head
In my head
In my head
3. Shallow Truths For Shallow Minds
Sleepwalker
Twisted perception of the earth
At war with reality
Destined to search for infinities
Destined to follow never to lead
There's no escape
Your silhouette is sure to fade
No matter what you think
There's no escape
We end up the same
It all repeats
What a waste
Trading all your mistakes for saving face
What a waste
Blame it on brand new faith your saving grace
Sleepwalker
New chemicals to breathe
Lungs built to collapse under uncertainty
Finding hope in a lie
Shallow truths for shallow minds
There's no escape
Your silhouette is sure to fade
No matter what you think
There's no escape
We end up the same
It all repeats
What a waste
Trading all your mistakes for saving face
What a waste
Blame it on brand new faith your saving grace
Whoa oh
Whoa oh
Whoa oh
What a waste
Blame it on brand new faith
Your saving grace
Nothing good ever comes to the ones who wait
Blind only lead the blind to the fucking grave
Destined to follow never to lead
Destined to follow never to lead
What a waste
Trading all your mistakes for saving face
What a waste
Blame it on brand new faith your saving grace
Whoa oh
Whoa oh
Whoa oh
What a waste
Blame it on brand new faith
Your saving grace
Sleepwalker go back to sleep
4. Dark Divine
No light inside my dark
These walls speak louder when I'm alone
No love without a heart
Gave and took until it all put me back at the start
No in between
I let the world get the best of me
There's no light inside my dark
If you could see inside my head these days
You'd be so lost you'd never find your way
Cold to the touch there is no saving grace
There'd be no way to fill this empty space
I know it's not what you'd expect
Don't you say that I sound too jaded
Always over-thinking
Long way to go from here
Don't you waste days that I feel unworthy
Numb to my worries
Long way to go from here
There's no light inside my dark
Haunted by a ghost of my own
I tried to talk to God and he just gave me a rope
Heaven's so far Hell feels close
All that's left for me is just to let this go
Let this go
Don't you say that I sound too jaded
Always over-thinking
Long way to go from here
Don't you waste days that I feel unworthy
Numb to my worries
Long way to go from here
Hollow and alone
Not meant to be loved
Forever on my own
Hollow and alone
Forever on my own
Don't you say that I sound too jaded
Always over-thinking
Long way to go from here
Don't you waste days that I feel unworthy
Numb to my worries
Long way to go from here
Long way to go from here
Long way to go from here
5. Empty The Same
Were we meant to break spent more time watching me leave
I think I'm just another mistake in your way
I know you're better off alone
And that it's time for me to let you go
Into the air away from the mess I'm in
Been dragging you underneath my problems again
I wanted to tell you that you're free
In time you'll see
I just weighed you down
I wanted to tell you that you're free
In time you'll see
I just weighed you down
Were we meant to stay
Or are we made to decay
Waited for sun all we got was rain
Saw your smile fade while stress took me away
But you were on my mind
On my mind
I know it feels like I just left you to die left you to die
Been gone so long can't fucking make this right
I know it feels like I just left you to die
Been gone so long can't fucking make this right
I wanted to tell you that you're free
In time you'll see
I just weighed you down
I wanted to tell you that you're free
In time you'll see
I just weighed you down
So were we meant to break
Did I lose your faith
I know that I'm the one to blame
I'm empty the same
Now I'm empty the same
Consumed by thoughts not meant to escape
I know that I'm to blame
I'm empty the same
Into the air away from the mess I'm in
Been dragging you underneath my problems again
I wanted to tell you that you're free
In time you'll see
I just weighed you down
I wanted to tell you that you're free
In time you'll see
I just weighed you down
6. From The Dust Returned
There's nothing left of me for you
I'll get through like I always do
You'll end up just as I'd expect
Take for granted everything I had to give
I've had enough
Gave everything I had but it didn't have the touch
'Cause it's lost on a shelf collecting dust
Every word about my hell
These nights I don't dream sleep is nothing but a luxury
And the price has become too steep hard to believe there's any hope for me
The ones we should fear the most
Are the ones we give all of our hope
Now I'll sleep with one eye open
How do I learn to trust again
When all I know is fighting from the bottom
Hard to know what's left here in the end
Down and out is right where you left me
No good deeds without a fee
Surviving by the hand that fucking feeds
Hard to win
When you're always dealt the same hand
Forced to fold I never had a chance
Now I'll sleep with one eye open
How do I learn to trust again
When all I know is fighting from the bottom
Hard to know what's left here in the end
War inside my fucking mind
Living only to exist expiring with time
War inside my mind
Expiring with time
The ones we should fear the most
Are the ones we give all of our hope
Now I'll sleep with one eye open
How do I learn to trust again
When all I know is fighting from the bottom
Hard to know what's left here in the end
Now I'll sleep with one eye open
How do I learn to trust again
When all I know is fighting from the bottom
Hard to know what's left here in the end
(What's left here in the end)
7. Even God Has A Hell
To silence all the voices in my head
I'd have to forget every word you said
Been at war with myself from the start
Prayed for light and I was only given dark
Blocking all the pain from my chest
But some days are hard to forget
Looking for reasons and failing now
I won't wait
I know my head such is a dangerous place
Get me outta here I know too much
Won't be long before I've lost your touch
So much hate
For things I can't control
My apathy
Starts to take its toll
I know too much
Won't be long before I've lost your touch
To silence all the voices in my head
I thought it'd go away it's getting worse instead
Wishing that I knew how to calm these nerves
But they're only staying loud I fear the worst
I fear that someday I'll have to forget your face
How can I when it's all I see
Blocking all the pain from my chest
But some days are hard to forget
Looking for reasons and failing now
I won't wait
I know my head such is a dangerous place
Get me outta here I know too much
Won't be long before I've lost your touch
So much hate
For things I can't control
My apathy
Starts to take its toll
I know too much
Won't be long before I've lost your touch
Nowhere to turn
What I touch breaks
Lost in all the give and take
Another hit should numb my pain
I fear someday I'll have to forget your face
Another hit should numb my pain
I fear someday I'll have to forget your face
I won't wait
I know my head such is a dangerous place
Get me outta here I know too much
Won't be long before I've lost your touch
So much hate
For things I can't control
My apathy
Starts to take its toll
I know too much
Won't be long before I've lost your touch
8. Mischief Managed
Die slow when comfort bleeds you dry
You'll see I'm not the forgiving type
Fool me once shame on you
Now fool me twice fuck everything you put me through
All things aside I know you better than you know yourself
And I will never wish you well
All things aside I know you better than you know yourself
I'll never wish you well
Dig yourself from the bottom
Watch you lose yourself again
It's your curse
That tells me it could be worse
Heavy is the head that hangs with regret
Never wanted to burn but you did
When push came to shove
You pushed the world until it swallowed you in
Rock bottom gave out from underneath
The world gave up on you and your dreams
So paint yourself a new name
I watched the world give up on your dreams
While I watched you sink
Dig yourself from the bottom
Watch you lose yourself again
It's your curse
That tells me it could be worse
Dig yourself from the bottom
Watch you lose yourself again
It's your curse
That tells me it could be worse
It could be worse
I see the tables turn
And all your bridges burned
Nothing like a little spite
In pure disgust to feel alive
I see the tables turn
And all your bridges burned
Nothing like a little spite
In pure disgust to feel alive
Dig yourself from the bottom
Watch you lose yourself again
It's your curse
That tells me it could be worse
Dig yourself from the bottom
Watch you lose yourself again
It's your curse
That tells me it could be worse
Could be worse
9. Instinctive Intuition
I can't remember why I ever tried felt it in my bones
Can't make your wrongs my own
Making the same mistakes more rain on my parade
When I should have known never to get this comfortable
Sick of giving all my best
Only to get your worst
Sick of time lost at the end
Investing more than you're worth
Never knowing what it's like to have a day of peace in my life
I'm over thinking every situation I can seem to find
I should have known
I should have trusted
My instinct never proves me wrong
I should have known
I should have listened to my intuition
Constantly black and blue
Bad luck only leads to bad news
When searching for the truth
Now there's nothing more
Disconnect myself pull the cord
Disconnected from the world
Sick of giving all my best
Only to get your worst
Sick of time lost at the end
Investing more than you're worth
Never seen greener sides
I've been colorblind to everything but black and white
I should have known
I should have trusted
My instinct never proves me wrong
I should have known
I should have listened to my intuition
Damned to suffer at the hand of another
Bend 'til I fucking break
Bend 'til I break
I should have known
I should have trusted
My instinct never proves me wrong
I should have known
I should have listened to my intuition
I should have known
I should have trusted
My instinct never proves me wrong
I should have known
I should have listened to my intuition
Bend 'til I break
'Til I fucking break
10. The Skeletons I Keep
I feel dead in this room
Hear the sound of waves
I close my eyes
And it brings me back to life
I've been alone in this room
It's had to cope with the skeletons
I keep under my skin
I'm losing faith in faith again
Days repeat and they turn to weeks
Stuck here in between
Wishful thinking it never works
Haven't got the nerve
When I'm trapped here under water
Let me dream
When I know I'll drown under water
Won't you let me sleep
When I'm trapped here under water
Let me dream
When I know I'll drown under water
Won't you let me sleep
I'm losing faith in faith again
Confined to a hell that I call my mind
The skeletons I keep are fighting to survive
Fighting to survive
I'm losing faith in faith again
I'm losing faith in faith again
When I'm trapped here under water
Let me dream
When I know I'll drown under water
Won't you let me sleep
When I'm trapped here under water
Let me dream
When I know I'll drown under water
Won't you let me sleep
I feel dead in this room
Hear the sound of waves
I close my eyes
And it brings me back to life
When I'm trapped here under water
Let me dream
When I know I'll drown under water
Won't you let me sleep
When I'm trapped here under water
Let me dream
When I know I'll drown under water
Won't you let me sleep
11. False Idol
I'll set fire to your legacy
Up in smoke without sympathy
Crashing to burn in your misery
False idol another voice for the sheep
I'll set fire to your legacy
No love lost
I wrote you off before you knew I was gone
No love found
No one to blame but yourself
Say whatever fills your cup
I'm here to tell you no one's rising up
Don't you notice they've turned away
I'm here to tell you nothing's what it seems
I'll set fire to your faith you'll reap what you've sewn
Reserved is a place for you to rot alone
Rot alone
Say whatever fills your cup
I'm here to tell you no one's rising up
Don't you notice they've turned away
I'm here to tell you nothing's what it seems
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Nothing what it seems
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Nothing's what it seems
Marked for death since the day you were born
Marked for death since the day you were born
Marked for death
Say whatever fills your cup
I'm here to tell you no one's rising up
Don't you notice they've turned away
I'm here to tell you nothing's what it seems
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Nothing's what it seems
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Nothing's what it seems
I'm fucking done
