It's getting hard to bite my tongue
'Cause every time you speak I'm choking on my blood
On my blood
When it's said and done
Trying not to think
Better not to see
How much faith I'll lose
'Cause I believed in you
At night, do you know that you lie?
When you sleep, do you keep your eyes shut tight?
Finding all the words to run and make a break
Searching for escape
From all these mistakes haunting every day
Please save me
Begging to be more than you
Finding all the words to run and make a break
Searching for escape
From all these mistakes haunting every day
Lash at your ghost, fail by design
The embers of these burning bridges scattering, reflecting in my mind
Dance around the truth, turn and run
Far away
Run until your legs won't carry all the shame
Pry open my eyes to find serenity when I take back my life

Gotta hand it, tell you I can't stand it
When the whole world keeps on saying no
Try to trick ya but they miss the picture
Sit beside me tell me everything ya know
Waiting cold and bitter
Gem without the glitter
Oh, somewhere in that scene
There's more than you and me
Oh, as hopeless as it seems
Swept so we can see
Oh yeah
Wasting time longing for the sunshine
Leaves me scared cause I don't wanna be alone
What we gaining with all this complaining
Spending much more time with the stone
Staring down forever
Chasing all the better
Oh, somewhere in that scene
There's more than you and me
Oh, as hopeless as it seems
Swept so we can see
Oh yeah
Oh, somewhere in that scene
There's more than you and me
Oh, as hopeless as it seems
Swept so we can see
Oh yeah
Waiting cold and bitter
Gem without the glitter
Pray for better weather
Staring down forever
Chasing all the better

Light
Shining in there somewhere
Spite
Tempting out of nowhere
I have to find serenity again
Enough about me, let's hear from them
Thought
He got the thing he wanted
Taught
All of what he needed
He has to climb a mountain for his peers
We hope that his intentions are clear
Fall to distraction until we fall asleep
Eats away at our bodies and our sanity
All we want is to find our self-control
Take it over and finally find our role
Stunned
Forced to live, don't know how
Run
Jump from place to place now
They have to find just who and what they are
But who doesn't go through life without a scar?
Fall to distraction until we fall asleep
Eats away at our bodies and our sanity
All we want is to find our self-control
Take it over and finally find our role

Turned off my phone because nobody’s calling
No expectation to see you come crawling
Why go?
Say so
I know
Even though
One day you’ll get it
Then you’ll regret it
One day you’ll get it
The day I forget it
One day you’ll get it
Pushed me aside out of pure desperation
Now that you’ve left I need new Inspiration
Don’t go
Guess so
I know
Even though
One day you’ll get it
Then you’ll regret it
One day you’ll get it
The day I forget it
One day you’ll get it
Don’t go
Guess so
I know
Even though
One day you’ll get it
Then you’ll regret it
One day you’ll get it
The day I forget it
One day you’ll get it

It’s been a long time coming
But was it worth the wait?
Time will tell, my captain
If we sink or swim here
Lift anchors and cut bait
We’ll set sail from the bay
What have we been doing
But waiting to begin?
Don’t you think it’s time then
We try to start again
It took 12 years for you to get this out of us
So don’t get used to hearing us this way
This way
Wish I could find us some wings
I’d lift us up myself
I’m searching ‘round the deck
But there’s none to be found
Did you ever think that
We’re drifting off in space?
Specks of dust and atoms
In gravity’s embrace?
Hey, mayday, mission control
It’s all coming crashing down
It took 12 years for you to get this out of us
So don’t get used to hearing us this way
Off in space, lost without a trace
So don’t get used to hearing us this way
It took 12 years for you to get this out of us
So don’t get used to hearing us this way
Off in space, lost without a trace
So don’t get used to hearing us this way
This way

Often it seems I messed up somewhere on the way
Can't help but feel like my life has been on delay
Is this path a mistake? Did I do something wrong?
Hope my thoughts can be sorted out before long
So you say you're not sure what you're doing with your life?
Well let me cue you in on some helpful advice:
No one else really knows what the hell is going on
So don't freak out, just go your pace
I'm sure you'll move along
It's easy to say that things will turn out just fine
But what happens when those plans fall out of line?
Brace for impact as real life goes for the throat
Beaten down with no hope of staying afloat
So you say you're not sure what you're doing with your life?
Well let me cue you in on some helpful advice:
No one else really knows what the hell is going on
So grab a beer, forget this fear
Let's move the night along
You still say you're not sure what you're doing with your life
Well, who am I to really qualify to give advice?
I for one still don't know what the hell is going on
But maybe we can fake it ‘til we make it before long

You know exactly where I’ve been
Suppose I don’t even have to question
Don’t know who to answer to
Not sure what I have to do for you
For you
Live my life and pass the test
Not before I clean this mess, I’ll do
I’ll do
And the sun
The sun shines through the clouds
I know you’re there, but you can’t tell me how
I don’t believe my heart has gone astray
In these days I guess it’s best to stay away
Stare into the whispering sky
And out the corner of my eye is you
It's you
One day hold you in my arms
First must learn to do no harm, it’s true
So true
And the sun
The sun shines through the clouds
I know she’s there, but she can't see me now
The stars will change for me this time
Take control of the life that is mine
Use my gift, the time is now
Familiar faces I allow, join me
Join me
Locked inside of their own homes
Guess that’s why I walk alone, I’m free
I’m free
And the sun
The sun shines through the clouds
I know they're there, but I can’t tell them how

What is it worth and the price I pay
Well that’s the way I spend most my days
In a way
Laugh at myself, say it’s all okay
A fascination with the earth and clay
In the way
In the way
Let it rain and cut and burn my skin
Feels good to know how wrong I’ve been
And I toss and I turn and I don’t seem to learn to give the time of day
Turn and walk away, you know nothing to say
Try as I may, seems it’s hard to change
Well that's the way when you're livin' strange
Rearrange
Rearrange
Ain’t got the time to take it slow
For all the things that I may never know
Time to go
It’s time to go
Let it rain and cut and burn my skin
Feels good to know how wrong I’ve been
And I toss and I turn and I don’t seem to learn to give the time of day
Turn and walk away, you know nothing to say
Let it rain and cut and burn my skin
Feels good to know how wrong I’ve been
And I toss and I turn and I don’t seem to learn to give the time of day
Turn and walk away, you know nothing to say
Nothing to say
Nothing to say
Say

Six to two I'll be thinking of you
And all the pain I went and put you through
How long'd you think it'd take for me to crack
With all the confidence and skills I lacked
I told you that I'd never do it again
I told the world that I never would mend
Found another by the end of the day
Yeah I know that it's not okay
How will you move on and start yourself anew?
What are you gonna do?
I said to trust me for what I thought was true
When I left it to you
Build me up and leavin' me on a shelf
Angry at me just for being myself
You called me out but then I called your bluff
You want the world but it's not enough
Always crying that your life is unfair
You're so lazy, getting harder to bear
Always tell me how it should be
Scaring people ain't my cup of tea
How will you find success, you never follow through?
What are you gonna do?
I'm feeling done with the game this turned into
When I left it to you
And it always feels like it's all just going to waste
The second I change my mind you're in my face
And I told you that there'd only be one in the end
But I never felt that I'd be losing a friend
Oh yeah!
How will you move on and start yourself anew?
What are you gonna do?
I said to trust me for what I thought was true
When I left it to you
How will you find success, you never follow through?
What are you gonna do?
I'm feeling done with the game this turned into
When I left it to you
Alright!

Moss grows on an idle stone
Rehearsing my funeral
(Goblin mode
I’m going goblin mode)
Sedentary, settle in
Never leave the house again
(Goblin mode
I’m going goblin mode)
Contorted, lack of blood flow
Screen glow's the only light I know
Two years are wasted
But I promise that I'm not impatient
Slam the door and kick the wall
Scream until I've said it all
(Goblin mode
I’m going goblin mode)
Staring at my bucket list
Who could ever live like this?
(Goblin mode
I’m going goblin mode)
Struggling to tell the day
Inner clock in dire straits
(Goblin mode
I’m going goblin mode)
Burn holes in my memory
Erase me from history
(Goblin mode
I’m going goblin mode)
Sinking to the darkest depths
Waiting lists for therapists
(Goblin mode
I’m going goblin mode)
Contemplating one more time
How I’ll leave this world behind
(Goblin mode
I’m going goblin mode)

I cannot find the words to say
To keep you from walking away
What could I do to make you stay?
Feeling empty thoughts today
Trying hard to get off the ground
Always drag me down
And now I’m all alone tonight
You’re not here and it’s not right
Why did it always end in fights?
Wonder if I will be alright
Trying hard to get off the ground
Always drag me down
You know I hate to see you cry
Tells me that I’m the wrong guy
That's when I go ask myself why
Now I know that it's time to say goodbye
Trying hard to get off the ground
Always drag me down
