Let's set this straight I won't be defined by anyone's mistakes But what would you say If things you love turned you into someone you hate Through with sleepless nights sitting on your floor All the countless fights I worry till I'm bored Just a waste of time now I know that I'm So out of sight and out of mind Do you remember when driving in your car Doing all I can not to fall apart Ran downstairs to die never thought that I Could feel so alone again You never came downstairs You are never gonna get what you want I'd rather live my life with another permanent mark Still think that you have got some more to say Get the hint, turn around and walk away don't stay As hard it is for me to just ignore I dedicate myself to something more I'm gonna punch my way through this wall And when I see the day I swear I'm taking it all The hardest part of all these problems To know what they are and not embody them I know I'm not the person in my head Still I'm learning how to accept what was done and said We emptied bottles as we sat on the bed At the end of the day that's all that matters I guess Moving miles from where we were last year Never again will we live with any fear Moving miles from where we were last year

Letting Go 03:48
I can't believe it's been so long since I saw you last The feeling, it just keeps fading away I know it's just not healthy living in the past But how could I just let you slip away Everything's gone to shit without you Sold the house, I barely made it through high school But it's not the end I didn't break I'm just bent I know I can't live like this forever Falling behind, feel like it's now or never When I said I’m fine, I just needed some time Can’t help but wish that you were still around I think of all the things we’d talk about And I thought maybe you could help me out ‘cause I just feel so lost where I am now And I know Oh I know it isn’t easy Letting go Letting go of this Where’d you go I don’t know but Wherever it is you’ll find a part of me Everything's gone to shit without you, It all fell apart, but what else could I do, I think we made it through, ‘Cause I know I'll never see you again, You're just a faded memory in my head, But in my thoughts I'll keep you alive I just wish I had said goodbye

Headlights 02:32
Give me one good reason why I should look beyond the headlights that just pass me by I’m done with this thought that it will be just fine The future cannot promise this picture perfect life The world is turning faster than my head Seems like everything we had was never meant Not quite the person I used to be Lost all my faith in stability Guess I’ll be walking home alone again When everything's falling down I look around to find my way but I don’t know how The only route is getting out of this dead end town It’s sad and abrupt but the only way I know

Still thinking about time passing by ‘Fraid of losing that mid summer high For the end of us, so closely near Yet dear to what I've become Three months from now; filling new shoes pondering if this is good or bad news Missing the smell of the Atlantic Near the place we used to grow the place we called home Running way from her down green valley road Forever staying eighteen no worries against the world Driving down the southern parkway Over a hundred but still making haste, Thinking about the one up above Soaring to wherever she may fly Umbrellas blind you from the beauty of rain you forget that smiles are born through pain For now our hands are held tight Slowly letting go, but never forgetting life together I will never believe in growing up I only pray growing up believes in me Running way from her down green valley road, Forever staying eighteen no worries against the world

Caffeine 05:30
It’s 4am and I’m lying in bed I had too much caffeine again I can’t fall asleep, like this I start thinking about what I’m doing with my life I did it again just blew the whole night Doing nothing, with my friends We'd sit around in parking lots and talk about the last party Honestly what else can we look forward to I lie awake staring at the ceiling Is there nothing that can relieve me of this feeling And I don’t think, anything is going right for me But I heard you’re doing better, without me I just needed something to live for You were just my reason to be alive Please tell me that there is something more Cause I’m too much a coward to lay down and die And I, don’t wanna give up yet I know it’s my fault, the way I am right now I can’t blame anyone else, for how I turned out And I’m trying to change, the best that I can But it gets hopeless, When so many things about you are just plain wrong And I know you think I’m okay but I’m not And everyone thinks I’m okay but I’m not Just cause I didn’t say it doesn’t mean I didn’t care And just cause you don’t see it doesn’t mean it isn’t there I'm not okay

Murph 03:56
It must be hard to fall down with no gravity Down here its all I do in my own poverty Summers days make me feel like I am missing out more In countless ways I picture you and I Sitting on the back porch Orbiting my mind, taking up space and bringing back time Enabling me to grow means learning how And when it's best to let go I'm left behind exchanged for other sights Seeing dark skies you drift across my light I'm staying home now I'm sleeping somehow Another cup of coffee When nothing's the same Not even video games Can get me through the week It must be hard to fall down with no gravity down here It's all I do in my own poverty I can't breathe this heavy air Set me aside as if you ever cared So if you're coming back to earth, I'll meet you where we last stood It's getting harder to find worth In the stars, after all they have took

Nice Weather 02:04
I’m ripping up Ripping up the roots from underneath my feet I’m staying up telling stories I hope to never keep It just might be Narrow vision but it’s still enough to see and I believe what I see is how you stole this all from me I’ll take it back Now it’s spring I live another day, another fucked up week Think I might be living out my hell at least the weathers nice It’s telling me Moving on is maybe just what I might need But you dont see I tried to help myself by planting out this seed I’m gonna watch it grow

It was in the way you spoke about the things you loved Now all I hear is a subtle breeze. Whispering, "when will you let go? Maybe space is a good idea That's what she told me She went on that it was nothing but poor timing Maybe space is a good idea That's what she told me Maybe it's time to say goodbye Time to say goodbye

If I had eyes I'd see That you don't want us to be And i know that we're not real But I've got a heart that feels I can't keep holding in all of these these ideals Of a different me and a different you Where everything was young and new and fine But I keep wasting thoughts on another time it helps me understand that I'm I'm just not 13 anymore I've been constantly trying to go back in time To see if I cant revive The young and the hopeful and bring them to life It’s just not the same anymore I gave you the pieces of my humankind But I've come to terms with myself So I'll bring those pieces back into my mind When you and I were blind We helped each other to see Without our sight we'd find That my heart is all I could be As the time passes by I wonder why You and I have grown apart Once always together but I guess it's better To be apart forever I let you grow and you let me go But its okay cause now I know that I Now I know that I don't need you in my mind I have realised I don't need you here in my life You never cared at all I'm perfectly tired of losing my mind And I will no longer fall I'll hold my ground because I know that I I'm just not 13 anymore I've been constantly trying to go back in time To see if I cant revive The young and the hopeful and bring them to life It’s just not the same anymore I gave you the pieces of my humankind But I've come to terms with myself So I'll bring those pieces back into my mind
