2.Don't Stay

Sometimes I need to remember just to breathe
Sometimes I need you to stay away from me
Sometimes I'm in disbelief, I didn't know
Somehow I need you to go

Don't stay
Forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
What you were changing me into
Just take myself back and
Don't stay
Forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
Take all your faithlessness with you
Just take myself back and
Don't stay

Sometimes I feel like I trusted you too well
Sometimes I just feel like strangling you myself
Sometimes I'm in disbelief, I didn't know
Somehow I need to be alone

Don't stay
Forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
What you were changing me into
Just take myself back and
Don't stay
Forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
Take all your faithlessness with you
Just take myself back and
Don't stay

I don’t need you anymore, don’t want to be ignored
I don’t need one more day, of you wasting me away
I don’t need you anymore, I don’t want to be ignored
I don’t need one more day, of you wasting me away
With no apologies

Don't stay
Forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
What you were changing me into
Just take myself back and
Don't stay
Forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
Take all your faithlessness with you
Just take myself back and
Don't stay

Don't stay

Don't stay


3.Somewhere I Belong

[Verse 1]
(When this began)
I had nothing to say
And I'd get lost in the nothingness inside of me
(I was confused)
And I let it all out to find
That I'm not the only person with these things in mind
(Inside of me)
But all the vacancy, the words revealed
Is the only real thing that I've got left to feel
(Nothing to loose)
Just stuck, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own
And the fault is my own

[Chorus]
I wanna heal, I wanna feel
What I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain I felt so long
(Erase all the pain till it's gone)
I wanna heal, I wanna feel
Like I'm close to something real
I wanna find something I wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

[Verse 2]
And I've got nothing to say
I can't believe I didn't fall right down on my face
(I was confused)
Looking everywhere only to find
That it's not the way I had imagined it all in my mind
(So what am I?)
What do I have but negativity?
Cause I can't justify the way everyone is looking at me
(Nothing to lose)
Nothing to gain, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own
And the fault is my own

[Chorus: Repeat]

I will never know myself until I do this on my own
And I will never feel anything else until my wounds are healed
I will never be anything till I break away from me
I will break away, I'll find myself today

[Chorus: Repeat]

I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I'm
Somewhere I belong
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I'm
Somewhere I belong
Somewhere I belong


4.Lying From You

When I pretend, everything is what I want it be,
I looked exactly like what you always wanted to see
When I pretend, I can’t forget about the criminal I am
Stealing second after second just cause I know I can, but
I can’t pretend that this is they way it will stay, I’m just
(Lying to defend the truth)
I can’t pretend of who you want me to be so
(I’m lying my way from)

You
(Nah, no turning back now)
I wanna be close beside so let me go
(Nah, no turning back now)
Let me take me back my life
I’d rather be all alone
(No turning back now)
And anywhere on my own, cause I can see
(Nah, no turning back now)
’Cause everyone’s lying from you
WITH ME

I remember what they taught to me,
Remember condescending took for what I ought to be
Remember fussing and all of that and this again
so I could turned it up to the person who was feeling it
And now you think this person really is me and I
(Trying to defend the truth )
yo, the more I push I’m pulling away cause I’m
(Lying my way from)

You
(Nah, no turning back now)
I wanna be close beside so let me go
(Nah, no turning back now)
Let me take me back my life
I’d rather be all alone
(No turning back now)
And anywhere on my own, cause I can see
(Nah, no turning back now)
’Cause everyone’s lying from you
WITH ME

This isn’t what I wanted to be, I never thought what I said would have you running from me
LIKE THIS!
This isn’t what I wanted to be, I never thought what I said would have you running from me
LIKE THIS!
This isn’t what I wanted to be, I never thought what I said would have you running from me
LIKE THIS!
This isn’t what I wanted to be, I never thought what I said would have you running from me
LIKE THIS!

You
(Nah, no turning back now)
I wanna be close beside so let me go
(Nah, no turning back now)
Let me take me back my life
I’d rather be all alone
(No turning back now)
And anywhere on my own, cause I can see
(Nah, no turning back now)
’Cause everyone’s lying from you
WITH ME


5.Hit The Floor

There are just too many
Times hat people have tried to look inside of me
Wondering what I think of you
And I protect you out of courtesy
To many times that I've held on when I needed to push away
Afraid to say what was on my mind
Afraid to say what I need to say
Too many things that you've said about me when I'm not around
You think having the upperhand means you gotta keep putting me down
But I've had too many stand offs with you
Its about as much as I can stand
So I'm waiting until the upperhand is mine

[Chorus:]
One minute you're on top
Next, you're not, watch you drop
Making your heart stop
Just before you hit the floor
One minute you're on top
Next, you're not, missed a shot
Making you're heart stop
You think you've won, and then its all gone

So many people like me put so much trust in all your lies
So concerned on what you think to just say what we feel inside
So many people like me walk on eggshells all day long
All I know is that all I want is to feel like I'm not stepped on
There are so many things you say that make me feel you've crossed the line
What goes up will surely fall
And I'm counting down the time
'Cause I've had so many stand offs with you
Its about as much as I can stand
So I'm waiting until the upperhand is mine

[Chorus]

And then its all gone [3x]
Now its all gone

I know I'll never trust a single thing you say
You knew your lies would divide us, but you lied anyway
And all the lies have got you floating up above us all
But what goes up has got to fall

[Chorus]

And then its all gone [3x]
Now its all gone


6.Easier To Run

It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something long
It’s so much easier to run
Replace all this pain here all alone

Something has been taken from deep inside of me
The secret I’ve been locked away where one could never see
look so different, never show,
They never go away
Like moving pictures in my head
??

[Mike’s part]
If I could change I would
Take all the pain I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made I would
If I could stand up and take the blame I would
If I could take all the shame and the pain I would
If I could change I would
Take all the pain I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made I would
If I could stand up and take the blame I would
I would take all the shame and the blame

It's easier to run replacing this pain with something long
It’s so much easier to run
Replace all this pain here all alone

Some things I remember but thought the soul bypassed
Bringing back these memories I wish I didn’t have
Sometimes I think I’m letting go and never looking back
I never really thought so, I never realized?

[Mike’s part]
If I could change I would
Take all the pain I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made I would
If I could stand up and take the blame I would
If I could take all the shame and the pain I would
If I could change I would
Take all the pain I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made I would
If I could stand up and take the blame I would
I would take all the shame and the blame

Just watch it in the sun
All of the helplessness as I’ve
Pretending I don’t feel misplaced
It’s so much simpler to change

It's easier to run replacing this pain with something long
It’s so much easier to run
Replace all this pain here all alone

It's easier to run

If I could change I would
Take all the pain I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made

It's easier to run

If I could change I would
Take all the pain I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made I would
If I could stand up and take the blame I would
I would take all the shame with me


7.Faint

I am a little bit of loneliness, a little bit of disregard
Handful of complaints, but I can help the fact, that everybody can see these scars
What I want you to want, what I want you to feel
But it's like no matter what I do, I can't convince you, to just believe this is real
So I let go, watching you, turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here 'cause you want what I've got

I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored

I am a little bit insecure, a little unconfident
'Cause you don't understand, I do what I can, but sometimes I don't make sense
I say what you never wanna say, but I've never had a doubt
It's like no matter what I do, I can't convince you, for once just to hear me out
So I let go, watching you, turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here 'cause you want what I've got

I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored

Now
Hear me out now
You're gonna listen to me, like it or not
Right now
Hear me out now
You're gonna listen to me, like it or not
Right now

I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored

I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored

I can't feel
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored


8.Figure.09

VERSE I

Nothing ever stops all these thoughts
And the pain attached to them
Sometimes I wonder why this is happenin'
It's like nothing I could do would distract me when
I think of how I shot myself in the back again
Cause from the infinite words I could say
I put all the pain you gave to me on display
But didn't realize instead of setting it free I
Took what I hated and made it apart of me

[It Never Goes Away] x2

CHORUS

And Now
You've become a part of me
You'll always be right here
You've become a part of me
You'll always be my fear
I can't separate
Myself from what I've done
Giving up on part of me
I've let myself become you

VERSE II

Hearing your name
The memories come back again
I remember when it started happenin'
I'd see you in every thought I had and then
My thoughts slowly found words attached to them
And I knew as they escaped away
I was committing myself to 'em
And every day I regret saying those things
Cause now I see that I
Took what I hated and made it apart of me

[It Never Goes Away] x2

CHORUS

[It Never Goes Away] x4

BRIDGE

GET AWAY FROM ME!
Give me my space back, You've gotta just (GO!)
Everything just comes down to memories of (YOU!)
I've kept it in without letting you (KNOW!)
I've let you go! So..

GET AWAY FROM ME!
Give me my space back, You've gotta just (GO!)
Everything just comes down to memories of (you)
I've kept it in without letting you (KNOW!)
I've let you go!

CHORUS

I've let myself become you
I've let myself become lost
inside these thoughts of you.
Giving up on part of me
I've let myself become you


9.Breaking The Habit

Memories consume like opening the wounds
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume I'm safe here in the room
Unless I try to start again
I don't want to be the one the battles always choose
'Cuz inside I realize that I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I know It's not alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight

Clutching my cure I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more than any time before
I have no options left again
I don't want to be the one the battles always choose
'Cuz inside I realize that I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight

I'll paint it on the walls
Cuz I'm the one at fault
I'll never fight again
And this is how it ends

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
To show you what I mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight


10.From The Inside

I don’t know who to trust, your surprise
Everything feel so far away from me
Have your thoughts sent through dust, and the lies
Trying not to break, but I’m so tired of this to see
Every time I try to make myself get back up on my feet
All I ever think about is this, all the time and time between
And how trying to put my trust in you just takes so much out of me

Take everything from the inside
And throw it all away
‘Cause I swear for the last time
I won’t trust myself with you

Tension is building inside, steadily
You feel so far away from me
Have your thoughts forcing their way out of me

Trying not to break, but I’m so tired of this deceit
Every time I try to make myself get back up on my feet
All I ever think about is this, all the time and time between
And how trying to put my trust in you just takes so much out of me

Take everything from the inside
And throw it all away
Cause I swear for the last time
I won’t trust myself with you
I won’t waste myself on you!!!
You!!!
You!!!
Waste myself on you!!!
You!!!
You!!!

I’ll take everything from the inside
And throw it all away
‘Cause I swear for the last time
I won’t trust myself with you
Everything from the inside
And throw it all away
‘Cause I swear for the last time
I won’t trust myself with you
You
You
You

13.Numb

I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertone just caught in the undertone)
Every step I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertone just caught in the undertone)
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I've becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

Can't you see that you're smothering me
Holding too tightly afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
(Caught in the undertone just caught in the undertone)
Every step that I take is another mistake to yo
