I’ve got a lot to do But nothing left to prove So I won’t make a move You’ve got a lot to say I just stay in your way I’ll just be in your way Now that it’s come to this I just want happiness Wrapped up in selfishness But now just as things start to change And our lives get rearranged I hope you don’t fade away Because I’m feeling like I am home Yeah now I’m feeling like I am home Yeah now I, I feel just fine Because I am home I am home
2.
This cold weather only makes this worse I swear I’m trying but now I’m not so sure If I could leave you here tonight If I could walk away this time If I could leave you here tonight This ocean that’s around us Is only tearing us apart and I’m tired of swimming So drift away and let me Drown I’ll sink to the bottom let the water fill my lungs Until my heart stops beating again And my father says he hates the world I’m not sure if I could ever go home Because I’m leaving here tonight And I won’t be back this time Yeah I’m leaving here tonight

Black Hole 02:55
Late last night while I was watching my TV I saw her face it brought me back To a time when we were on the same page with almost everything But then she went and left And it made me wonder what I would do If I ever run in to you Thanks to my black hole of a brain There’s only one thing I could think to say That all your new friends are fucking fake They’re only after one thing All those dudes are the same way They don’t want to help They just want to bring me down And it’s the same with the ladies You say they’re cool but they act so shady It’s crystal clear they don’t want me around So now I wonder what I would do If I ever run in to you Thanks to your black hole of a soul I think that I’d just have to let you go And just hope we’re so happy on our own Yeah I hope we’re so happy on our own Late last night while I was playing my guitar I saw a light outside my door So I put down my things and stepped out carefully in to the scene That lay before my eyes Now I never wonder what I should do Because I’ve always got you to prove That I don’t need to be afraid There’s no more black hole deep inside my brain And all my new friends would say the same Yeah all my new friends would say the same
4.
It takes a little bit of time To settle in to your skin You look the wolf in his eyes And wonder where he’s been And as you lose a little clothes And slip into your bed He shows the points of his teeth You try to hide in the sheets But it’s only for tonight Yeah it’s only It didn’t have to be so hard To let you go To let you go It never had to be this hard To let you go To let you go So now you’re hoping for change And some apology The truth is I’m afraid I don’t have much to say Because it was only for one night It was only Yeah it was only just one night It was only It doesn’t have to be so hard To let me go To let me go It never had to be so hard To let me go So let me go If there was one thing I could change I would have never let you stay
5.
For the record I’m doing better But I still hate it when I see you both together Because you once were mine before But now you’ve gone and found someone who’s more mature It’s for the better that I just forget her I’ve been reminded since the day I met her That I’m meant to be alone I swear it feels like I am on a sinking boat Is it just me am I a problematic Because every time I start to feel fantastic Something comes along And sets fire to the places I call home I’ll try to watch my tone But this tongue is not my own I’ll try to hold my throne But this life is not my own Don’t you try and laugh this off Or blame her for what is your fault You’ve known since you were three feet tall One day you’d end up all alone So let this go

Thank God for gummy vitamins My diet consists of fast food red smokes dirty coke and Jameson And I’m sick I’m sick Work hard to try and pay the rent My mind is always spent From long nights, tired drives I’ll probably die from all of them I can’t win I can’t win When I lost all hope I thought I was gonna die alone But you took my hand And dragged me through the mud and the sand To see the sun come up Thank God my body still exists Without you I’d have missed A whole life spent living full of joy and happiness I’m not sick I’m not sick When I lost all hope I thought I was gonna die alone But you took my hand And dragged me through the mud and the sand When I lost all hope I knew I was gonna die alone But you took my hand And dragged me through the mud and the sand To see the sun come up

Tune It Out 03:53
I have been waiting for someone to save me From the way I have been feeling lately I do wait for you I have been thankful that God doesn’t hate me For all the dumb shit I do on the daily I do hope that’s true I have been given a new type of vision One that is greater than all your religion I do see through you Right through you Right through you You say how could someone like me Be given a second chance I say somebody like you Just needs to listen To what has been screaming inside of your heart now for a long time But you tune it out It’s been a while now since I’ve had to worry Ever since you came to rewrite my story I do follow you Only you Only you You say how could someone like me Be given a second chance I say somebody like you Just needs to listen To what has been screaming inside of your heart now for a long time But you tune it out
8.
I’ve been waiting for your call Should have never bothered To write the same old songs Got your hands around my throat Squeeze your fingertips Till they seal up every breath of air that I have I’ve been dreaming for too long It’s time to act now Get up off my ass and find my way back to those Places that I have always known Would have so much to offer We just hadn’t bothered to hit the road Got yourself a ball of hope And you think it’ll last you Through the winter but it’s barely big enough To wrap its’ arms around your fragile frame And keep you warm You should know it won’t at all So picture us we’re naked in your cell An empty apartment On the carpet feeling nauseous from those drugs You offered up with alcohol Then you took my body Spun it tightly sank your teeth into my skull You’ve got me face in the grass Hands tied my back Breaks in the fall You’re coming back I scream you laugh You’ll bring me down
9.
It’s taken me three long years To come to terms with the way things are Between you and I And I know we’ve tried to save it all But we just can’t make it We just won’t make it now And we’ve sold your soul For a bag of gold along the way Along the way And we gave our love For some broken hopes and restless dreams Restless dreams

Just Fine 02:17
I know I know you’re feeling down but It’s gotta gotta gotta get better I know I know you’ve been so down boy Everything will be just fine Everything will be just fine Well I know I know you’re feeling down but It’s gotta gotta gotta get better it will And I know I know you’ve been so down but Everything will be just fine Everything is gonna be just fine I know everything will be okay in time In time
11.
Be So Kind 03:25
Would you please just stop talking For once I’ve heard enough You’re always preaching the same tired shit to me Feel like I’m losing touch And would it kill you to call me Once in a while I haven’t heard your voice in months it seems Feels like I’m under trial But would you be so kind as to Make sure that I’m the one that leaves with you I’d rather die than watch you walk away To see you leave with someone new Could you please just stop talking Could you please just stop talking Would you please start explaining Why you’re always on the run I look away just for a second woe is me Look back to see you’ve gone But would you be so kind as to Make sure that I’m the one that leaves with you I’d rather die than watch you walk away To see you leave with someone new Would you please just stop talking Would you please just stop talking It’s not that I don’t love you It’s just that I’m too much a mess To be your woman right now all I want for me is what is best So you could wait forever Or you could move on with your life Mend your heart and find another one tonight But will you please just stop talking Would you please just stop talking
12.
I’m tired of waiting for you Because every time you walk away my heart it breaks a little more And now I’ve been frustrated lately Because all this time you had me thinking our love would never die But you lied You lied And I’m not even surprised I’m having trouble sleeping Because every time I close my eyes it takes me to a better time When you and I were something special But now I sit alone with nothing to show for what we’ve done Goodbye Goodbye I’ve had it with your lies Goodbye It’s been two weeks And I still can’t think with all these problems in my head But now I know How to be alone You try To run Without me Without me Baby you know If you go You doubt me You doubt me Baby you try…
