What does it take
How high are the stakes
If our lives aren't riding on the line, then this challenge isn't worth my time
No I won't break
I'll keep the promises that I make in the palm of my hand
This point of view will help me understand!
Through these eyes
I realize the suffering
I'm taking a stand to comprehend a life worth living
I'll grit my teeth and hold my cards close to my chest
We gotta give it a shot
Try and do our best
What does it take
How high are the stakes
If our lives aren't riding on the line, then this challenge isn't worth my time
No I won't break
I'll keep the promises that I make in the palm of my hand
This point of view will help me understand!
Through these eyes
I realize the suffering
I'm taking a stand to comprehend a life worth living
I'll grit my teeth and hold my cards close to my chest
We gotta give it a shot
Try and do our best
And I'm folding
My spines creasing
Now I'm falling down faster now
Sink your teeth, in my beliefs. I feel like I'm incomplete
I'll take my faith and leave this place
To reach something that means more to me
You'll bend and break
Don't hesitate through your mistakes
You'll find glory. I'll raise my hand
As I take my stand
And fight for what I believe

You're alive, but are you really living?
Wake up and do the same routine every day
Contemplating on why your mortality is even relevant at this point
Dreaming of what life you want but never obtaining it
Work, bills, responsibilities they're overflowing
Making it difficult to obtain true happiness
At least that's what the voice in my head told me
I have a fixation, with self-deprecation
I'll take it with a grain of salt, so I know that it's not my fault
Even though my problems are products of my attitude
I'll compromise my feelings for scenarios that aren't even true
It's hard, feel like I haven't got that far
It's apparent that things have changed
Now my mind need to be rearranged
You wake up greeted by ray's of sunshine bleeding through the blinds
You made it to another day
Chalk it down on the legacy that is your life
Your frail existence continues to trek forward
After contemplating your actuality
You muster up the courage to look at yourself in the mirror
To no avail you're greeted with the same fake smile
Fake it till you make it, but how much longer should this charade go on
I have a fixation, with self-deprecation
I'll take it with a grain of salt, so I know that it's not my fault
Even though my problems are products of my attitude
I'll compromise my feelings for scenarios that aren't even true
It's staring at the ceiling until it fades away into static
It's closing your eyes and hoping you never have to open them again it's haunting you every moment
My legs have become cemented to the floorboards
Gnashing of teeth xis the metronome that my sanity slips away to
My grip on reality untethers from the fibers in my fingertips
Exhaling thick ash that plagues my lungs
Coughing up webs that held me together
I'm falling apart knowing there is nothing better
I feel so defeated, and anger seems absolute
The more I try to branch out
I find myself in solitude

Staring at a textured ceiling
And I'm stuck inside my head
And I cannot move so I'll pretend the dots are snow instead
Nobody help me, please, I can do this on my own
I'm just scared, my body's all locked up, I might die here alone
Two big nights, everyone's fried and looking for love
Meanwhile, I just finished two long drives
Bustin my ass in Loves
There's so much to do other than fucking rest
But I can't fucking move this knot out of my chest
It's a stupid excuse but its nothing new
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
Two big nights, everyone's fried and looking for love
Meanwhile, I just finished two long drives
Bustin my ass in Love's
It's been a long time since I've felt alright
Putting myself in light
Two big nights they're thinking something's not right
Well somethings not right
Staring at a textured ceiling
And I'm stuck inside my head
And I cannot move so I'll pretend the dots are snow instead
Nobody help me, please, I can do this on my own
I'm just scared, my body's all locked up, I might die here alone
Maybe I'm too old to be just figuring this one out
But I'm the one whos gotta tell someone
When there's no one else around

You told me
One and one don't make two
And I'd be
A fool for not believing in you
Crooked lies and shit staind smiles got my knee shaking on the floor
These tired eyes won't apologize I don't want to pray anymore
I'm sorry I told the truth
Cuz I know that you
Aren't coming through
And now I know that's fine
I've come to terms with what is true
It's not you
I'm realizing something new
That my sleepless nights and broken mind
Never really gave me time to open up my eyes
Crooked lies and shit staind smiles got my knee shaking on the floor
These tired eyes won't apologize I don't want to pray anymore
I'm sorry I told the truth
Cuz I know that you
Aren't coming through
And now I know that's fine

What I Want To Be
03:18
|

I want to be someone
That you notice
When I’m not around
Cause I’m feeling so down
Thanks for noticing
I want to be something
To you
We can go on road trips
Break-in
Then take a dip
In some swimming pools
In some swimming pools
I want to go somewhere
With you
One so rural and dense
With a population of ten
Our own continent
I want to be everything
And more
The one who understands
When works got you feeling sad
I want to know more
Yeah I want to know more
I want to be someone
That you hold hands with
And when you walk out the door
I want to feel more
Of that sadness
I want to be someone
You fall in love with
At the end of the day
You will always have me
Because that’s what love is
Yeah that’s what love is
I want to be someone with you
I want to be something to you
I want to go somewhere with you
I want to be everything to you
To you

Every Single Day
03:28

Every single day is a struggle,
When you
Try to fight the demons inside
And I know what that’s like
It’s not any easier the first time
Or the second
But I know
Things change
I’m Just not sure when
No I’m not sure when,
when all that could be
Yet I know
That you know,
Exactly who you are
And I know,
It’s not show
No
That’s really who you are
And I know
That you know exactly who you are
Every single day is a lifetime,
And this life of mine’s
Not satisfying.
I keep myself up late at night
Just to ease the tensions
Of the day before
But I know

Hermit - Ambitions
03:18
|
|||
I am not drunk at all
And yes I might've had a drink or two
But I'm not drunk
But give up your dreams
And give up your goals
And give up your ambitions
This world don't care about those
This world will eat you up
Throw you up
Lick it back up
And barf you out
Back all over again
It'll be the piece of stain
On this worlds history
Just give it up already
Give up your ambitions
This world don't
Care about those
Just give it up already
Give up your ambitions
