1.
These days I’m living reckless and loud Or all alone without a sound One excuse or the other, they’ll both do me in The price I pay for living in sin I’ve got drugs to calm me down And I’ve got some to run me in the ground A different vice for every night To help me catch that morning light I loved you so hard and now you’re gone But I can keep you in a song Where I don’t have to sleep alone Or hate the man that I’ve become
2.
Killing Time 04:41
I’m the best at killing all of your time Dedicate my whole life to living blind To all of the bullshit that I can’t take My apathy, everyday I watch that shit grow And what is wrong with me? Nobody seems to know It’s eating me alive I can run away to 49 different states But that will not cure the problems my mind creates I’m building a tolerance to being sane I’m cutting off all my hair, they’re gonna send me away And I do not know where, but it’s not where my heart is gonna stay Because I buried it a long time ago
3.
If I left here tomorrow it wouldn’t matter to me I’ve got no time to make history And if the world’s almost over I’m giving up Because I know I’d never make the cut I’ve got this friend he moved back home Wasn’t strong enough to make it on his own When you take the poison for long enough One of these days it won’t let you back up There’s a darker side of town That’s where some of my friends are bound If I’m not careful I’ll join them soon Your prison walls better make some room If I died tomorrow would it matter to you? If you heard my name on your evening news If lightning strikes twice girl let me know Until that time I’ve got to let you go There’s a darker side of town And that’s where all of my friends are bound If I’m not careful I’ll join them soon Your prison walls better make some room
4.
Alcohol 03:12
Every shadow’s a deceiver They’re not the people I miss And every night I’m a believer That I’ll be fine after this And I know this is not the way Every day’s another battle Hope I make it out alive Somewhere along I lost the handle This shit’s too broken to drive And I know this is not the way In a matter of minutes I can make me feel alright But if I push too hard and finish Tell my mother goodbye ‘Cuz I know this is not the way
5.
Stay Young 01:38
This is the one thing that you cannot take from me
6.
Silver lining’s what I’m looking for Before the darkness starts spreading more But if you help me find a cloud, we’ll clean it up, we’ll hollow it out And fill it up with the things we love It took 25 years to realize You can’t go back, the innocence dies But if you help me get back up I know we’ll make it farther than some Just keep in mind what’s done is done If you can’t take it, I can’t take it Silver lining’s what I’m looking for
7.
Fix It 02:57
Waited it out Think it will be different this time I highly doubt That you can fix your fucked up mind Waited it out You bit hard like the second time I’m running out Of my money and my time But you can’t fix it Waited it out You bit hard like the second time I highly doubt That I can fix my fucked up mind You were wrong Said I’d be better on my own Now that I’m gone You have all the room to roam But you can’t fix it
8.
Can’t understand why you gotta try to make it through All of their lies, they’re gonna burn them into you You used to be happy but now it’s losing all its charm And it cuts you deep like a lover’s name carved in your arm This is the reason I wanna die before my time They’ve got you believing that all your problems are a crime But I’ve got mine Just the same as you A twisted joke that you can’t seem to figure out Your voice is a ghost, it disappears when you wanna shout I keep that picture just because your hair was down And I might sing to it at night when no one is around
9.
Wasted Words 03:23
All the wasted words on the evidence I burned Everybody’s gotta die why don’t you think you get a turn? I looked the devil in the eye, he said “boy you’re gonna fry” And then he knew that I would join him soon Erase it out of my head The dark things I did You’ve gotta pay the price Just pray it’s not tonight Now looking back I know where I got off track One specific night where I barely survived You’ve got to grow your heart into stone Cuz it’s not easy to know that we all die alone
10.
Remember Us 03:15
In the dead of night I can see you sitting there In the dead of night I can see you sitting there All alone in my room, can you see me sitting there? All alone in my room, can you see me sitting there? Us against them all, I hope they remember us Backs against the wall, I hope they remember us I cannot recall, did they even care for us? Us against them all, did they even care for us?
