There is a hole in your chest
Where your heart used to beat
It used to be filled with love
Now it's just history
A tenantless space where you used to live
The fleeting feeling of fidelity
Fading in front of your eyes
Is this what it feels like to die
How far do you have to go
To find something to find some piece of mind
Cause it is vacant and cold and I really don't know
How much more you are willing to fake
So take this step by step, breath by breath
Hold it in for as long as you can
Cause you are cutting loose somewhere that you can not commit
You're trying to break free
Outside of your limits
This city never seems to be forgiving
Just a constant reminder to take what you're given
How far do you have to go
To find some piece of mind
Cause it's packed and it's hot and I'm sure that you're not
Trying to stay for much longer

Somethings wrong again
I don't feel like living
But I'm too scared to die
At least right now
You won't understand
You can't
Please just take me away
As painlessly as possible
There is nothing here for me
Something's wrong again
I'm not sure how to deal with this
I am a slave to my emotions
Do as I say and you won't be hurt
Do as I say and you'll be safe
Please just take me away
As painlessly as possible
I have lost interest
In whatever comes next
In this story
I will tear the pages out
And burn them in a great fire
Then when everything has turned to ash
I'll be sitting on the pile
When all my friends die
Well so will my name
When all my friends die
Well so will my name
All my friends will die

I stared at you from across the bug jar floor
Thinking to myself, "you shouldn't bother"
I danced along to the sound of Boy Jr.
Trying to keep to myself the best I could
I come outside to say hello to the band
I see that you're with them lending a hand
While I'm passing time outside
I see you passing by
And can't help but compliment
The tattoo on your shoulder
So we continue the conversation
As you explained your situation
You're far from home just like me
Getting away from all the awful things
The night goes on and I can't help but stare
At my favorite color dyed in your hair
You offered to give me a ride home
I asked if I could just stay the night
You obliged, and off we went
As we drove through the dark to your apartment
Neighboring beside you on your bed
I didn't sleep at all, but decided to stare at the ceiling instead

Karma, is coming after me.
With a bounty on my head.
There are places to run, but for what?
There's nothing to do but sit and watch myself die
Breathe easy for me
When the time comes, I'll be letting go
Shine bright for yourself
Get your focus aligned with your thoughts
Fast paced beating, your heart won't stop
Knowing nothing about what's going on
I suppose I'll just sleep myself to death
Carry on the end in a blissful ignorance
Breathe easy for me
When the time comes, I'll be letting go
Keep a smile bright on that face
You'll never see the light of day again
Maybe happiness is an illusion
To keep yourself alive long enough to become empty
Breathe easy for you
When the time comes, you'll let me go
Keep a smile bright on your face
I'll never see the light of day again .

I know some day you'll be as happy as can be
And the sun will be shining down brightly
All the clouds will be far away from here
A crystal clear vision of the atmosphere
Oh I believe it's time to go to sleep
Time to dream of better days
Close your eyes and don't wake up
Until the sun is shining through the cracks in your windowsill
It's a beautiful morning
The birds are singing in the distance
The sound of traffic passing by
A river flowing through the streets
Come with me if you want to live
Happily ever after
After what? Come again
After a lifetime of feeling hopeless
It's a beautiful morning
The only detail that's missing
Would be you sitting next to me
Enjoying the scenery
If I wake up with the sun in my eyes and I'm blind
Will you be the first thing in my sight
When I can see again
It's a beautiful morning
The sun is shining brightly
All the clouds are far from here
There's a crystal clear vision of the atmosphere

Where's the complaint department
I have a few words Id like to say
I wish I was never born
And now I'm forced to live and slave away
I thought I was happy
But I was so wrong
I thought I could see clearly
But the glass is still fogged
I face my fear alone
It can rain every single day
On my parade, if you could even call it that
Do I qualify for a do-over
Cause suicide is not an option here
Where is the mortality
In staying alive if I hate every thing
Yeah where is the mortality
Nothing really seems to be fun anymore
So what's the point in living if it's just a huge bore
There's something wrong
I wake up most days wishing I was gone
I thought I was happy
But I was so wrong
I thought I could see clearly
But the glass is still fogged
It can rain every single day
On my parade, if you could even call it that
Do I qualify for a do-over
Cause suicide is not an option here
Where is the mortality
In staying alive if I hate every thing
Yeah where is the mortality in that
You hit me up I say what's up
You say lets hang I say okay
Then we drive around, drive all around town
But we don't say anything
I always want more, can't settle down
The simplest things are bumming me out
I'll sit by the freeway thinking about
How easy It'd be to just hop and be free
From this body
Goodbye for now and goodbye forever
Goodbye for now and goodbye forever
It can rain every single day
On my parade, if you could even call it that
Do I qualify for a do-over
Cause suicide is not an option here
Where is the mortality
In staying alive if I hate every thing
Yeah where is the mortality

Every single word I write sounds stupid
When I try to put my thoughts to words
It just comes out a mess
I'm sick of writing how I feel
I feel so stupid and so lonely
And depressed
But I know that's just how it goes
That's just how this goes
And it goes x5
It goes and goes and goes and fucking goes
Life will move on with or without you
And it goes x5
These words are like hot coals in my hands
I'd rather feel the burn than nothing at all
It goes around in circles in my head
The words escape me
And I feel crazy
I thought I had something to say
But now it's gone and I continue
Letting myself down
its amazing
But I know that's just how things go
That's just how this goes
And it goes x5
It goes and goes and goes and fucking goes
Life will move on with or without you
And it goes x5
I hope one day I write a song that makes me lots of money so when I feel sad I can buy a bunch of useless mundane items to fill the void in my body
But I know that's just how this goes
And that's just how it goes
And it goes x5
It goes and goes and goes and fucking goes
Life will move on with or without you
And it goes x5
