Overlooked 02:26
Of the opinion there's still plenty left to lose With the bigger picture swallowing you Like a styled frame that hasn't been used Donated sentiment, forever overlooked I won't find the bottom today Remember what it feels like to not understand Biggest worry was what was dirtying your hands Learning words and seeing lots of friends Learning those days are never coming back again I won't find the bottom today It's a fact that I cannot handle the truth Getting over this is something I won't do
2.
Fires on the sides of the roads but they're not keeping us warm Waking from the night spent alone Shelter from our own storms I repeat every lie that you told with every bit less promise I've waited my whole life just to know what it is I've wanted What makes you say everything's the same When it's later and it's changed A bright light casts from the edge of the city It comes with a sound I adore If I'm not careful, I'll let it kill me Cause I've got nothing else to live for What makes you say everything's the same When it's later and it's changed It never matches on its own Something I thought about the whole ride home

Pareidolia 03:50
Wide awake tonight Gave up on sleep I'm losing that light and it's all I can think about Seeing through what you're seeing through No one gets left, there's just goodbyes When you're bleeding through in your every move No one gets left, there's just goodbyes We can't ignore this to the end without burning all our bridges Save face at any expense Every question you ask is loaded Seeing through what you're seeing through No one gets left, there's just goodbyes When you're bleeding through in your every move No one gets left, there's just goodbyes You're holding onto memories What you need isn't here No one said it would be easy Now it's too difficult to care Standing in your own way I replay what you said Like a child that's been punished "I'm doing it again" How does one not feel empty No resounding rejoice Echoes of your laughter How you didn't have a choice
4.
All The Same 02:18
The ghosts of my past mistakes and I can't run away It used to creep me out Now it's all the same to me The feeling from yesterday You could never shake It used to freak you out Now it's all the same to me Loss washes over me And I forget to breathe I'm tearing at the seams I'm forgetting everything Loss washes over me There's nothing left to see And I'm trembling at the knees Just remember what this means That was the choice you made Now I cannot relate You leave me out Now it's all the same to me Whenever I say go away I hope you listen to me I don't know what I'm doing Let me go
5.
Moonville 01:55
You might consider that this could be the end You might consider not seeing me again At this point you'd probably be right to You're looking for what's right behind you Don't have to remind you, you get it You keep making lists of decisions I find ways to put myself in them You won't see the difference either way You might consider all the ways this manifests You might consider not seeing me again What I don't get is the fact we gave this our all And still somehow came up short We might not get another chance, there's only this So, what was I working so hard for
6.
I know I don't know what I need You had your back to me and I got Just a little more cunning For each minute spent running So we had no tact Who knew that would bite us? I did, but I stayed quiet and discrete I guess that I get it, I'm just annoyed The overly monotonous tone of his voice That chlorine smell that reminded me of burning You thought you knew so well And I found that concerning Because no one could tell you weren't lost, just learning Funny things you think about Come flying out your mouth While I drink But it's not enough consumption To be where I wanted And so we go back And it's just like you to get mad I'm over insignificant things I guess that I get it, I'm just annoyed The overly monotonous tone of his voice That chlorine smell that reminded me of burning You thought you knew so well And I found that concerning Because no one could tell you weren't lost, just learning how Promises fall out your mouth No excuses, no way out You worry more about the sound
7.
Speaks To Me 03:41
I pray just once for names Whisper that you're listening Before I fall apart Why don't you wish I would stay Frozen in place It speaks to me I pray just once for names Whisper that you're listening Before I fall apart Why don't you wish I would stay Frozen in place It speaks to me I gave it up to change But I can't differentiate Bullets in the air Or fish in the stream It's all the same It speaks to me You're the one leaving just as you came You're leaving me in a nervous space Now I'm the one needing Something I can say needs me I don't hear anything
8.
You scream at the absence And still nothing changes Get overdramatic Tear out all the pages So what does it matter We can't re-arrange this I love you, you love me Now both of us hate it It's the worst thing that could happen I found my only friend We're stuck in old patterns We're crushing our frames I can't give what I owe you But you can have what I give away I've broken our spirits Thinking I'd set us free Get sick to my stomach, How much you mean to me It's the worst thing that could happen I've found my only friend
9.
Sink if you want But I know you swim Just make a decision We don't wanna hear it Wish you the best And some contemplation That's how it was and that's how it's been I see what you mean, I could have done that better There's a good reason you have yourself to blame Don't come around here wringing your hands You won't find your way back in again Storming off in the wrong occasions I count myself out and then I get back in I see what you mean, I could have done that better You won't think about it, unless you're at the center I see what you mean, I could have done that better There's a good reason you have yourself to blame
10.
For Real 02:05
There's no contest But I can give you the right idea Neither of us know what's best And that's just no way to feel You weren't around To hear how your voice sounds Seeing my breakdown We carry every page Even if we survive this mess We've still lost our sense of prevail Silver lining we saw before was the sun coming out for real I wasn't there yet We're switching places I wasn't there yet We gave our lives away You've gone before You will again I hope somebody sees you for What's inside your head A brilliant excuse To leave me for dead Not someone you check in on Just one that you expect What did you expect?
11.
Tell me what you thought would happen Turning those hills into a mountain I don't know what you want from me I admit I never did Change the words But you're always the same song Giving this my very best meant little in the end In reality, there's nothing left to stand on Whatever happens Between you and me We're walking this backwards What if I don't get another chance to make amends What if I don't understand the question Half of my ideas play out better in my head The other half I really can't depend on Quality for quantity, Things are better left unsaid Common sense gets drowned out in the action None of this means anything until you understand A lot like thieves who didn't leave a ransom Whatever happens Between you and me We're walking this backwards
12.
What do you see for yourself? Look past everything that's on the shelf There's no change taking place To see it any different way You're just gonna do what you're gonna do Oh my god, I'm giving up What do you get for it? The fact that it's something you can help There's nothing we say can that makes a difference anyway You're just gonna do what you're gonna do Oh my god, I'm giving up
