No Words 01:58
This is an apology As superficial as it might seem I swear we're not all that way But I think you're right to doubt me I heard that you don't feel safe with friends Because fucked up things that guys do So separate and heal Sympathize, I'll be there for you Taking back the right to be heard And the right to be safe Now you can't feel loved Now you can't feel heard (You can't feel nothing but what he dictates) Just know there's nothing you did to deserve this And it's not your fault (You can't feel nothing but what he dictates) 'Cause you are so loved and you are so heard This is her life and it's not for you

Jawbreaker 01:13
I've been so stupid, so jealous, so jaded But I can't be that person anymore I'm losing friends 'cause I'm not one And I know that this couldn't last I say too little and I say it late I choose my battles and I don't choose well If I believed in god then I would go to hell i want to be better but I don't know how So I'll let myself let myself go I've been so stupid, so fucked up, forget it But I can't be that person anymore (frustrated) I choose my battles and I don't choose well If I believed in god then I would go to hell i want to be better but I don't know how So I'll let myself let myself go

Nerve Damage 02:39
No fucking way I'm coming back, back to you It's been so long, it's been surreal, it's not the same You're calling me back, I'm calling you out, you're calling me in Let go, it's time to let this all go Look around at this place, no unity An open casket, now full of what we could have been And I'll walk away from it, thinking this was it You're pulling me back in 'Cause it's not the kind of place That I'll ever celebrate And I'll never understand So run away 'Cause it's not my kind of play And I'm caught up behind stage And you don't even notice me now So run away

With open eyes on me I've arrived today with decency Shake hands, exchange pleasantries How's the weather where you live Now far away from me And now I'm choking up The syllables are stuck in my lungs As I explain, "I'm not one to make amends" And you conclude you're seeing someone else Spilling ink on spilled blood (Been calling to you) I try to document (Not falling for you) As I recollect (Been waiting so long for this moment) Every time I'm disappointed And I made a list longer than I care, care to admit Spilling ink on spilled blood It's like pencils and pens (I'll be sinking in) Spilling ink on spilled blood (Spilled blood) It's like pencils and pens (I'll be sinking in) One's not permanent But the other sinks in (I'll be sinking in, but not forever)

Break Hearts 02:02
The first thing you said to me was the last thing you said To got what you wanted, said what you wanted, fucked who you wanted, Who gives a fuck And I can't think of you in the same light as before And I can't think of you in the same light Got what you wanted, fucked you wanted Who gives a fuck So hold your tongue and collapse lungs Wanted to tell you that it's not okay 'Cause we played our cards where the only suit is hearts We deal in faith and luck is finite So gather around the table And place your bets Watch as I gamble with your beating heart I cheated myself not once but twice In this game where there's no rules We played our cards where the only suit is hearts (And I won't cry 'cause I'm thinking of the fucking lies)

If I stay here one more day I swear I'd fucking kill myself If I stay here one more day Hey father I'm lost and alone In need of comfort when disappointment shows It hurts to think there's something better But it kills when you look down on me Just wanted you to always love me These words they stick with me: "Son, give up your dreams. You're letting down your family" Deep down I know that you are right You're always fucking right I gave it a chance I know I got out what I put in If I gave it a chance I'd fall in and fall out again (These words they stick with me, "Son, give up your dreams. You're letting down your family")

Bitter End 01:48
Remember the summer Remember the feeling The world was your oyster But we came so far, until a bitter end I saw you every day, never again (Wasn't meant to) (Keeps on pushing me out, keeps on bringing me down, keeps on pushing me out) I do deserve it I do I do deserve it I do, I do deserve it (Not coming home) We came so far, until a bitter end
