Warming Up
03:07

I’ve always wondered what it feels like,
standing on top of the world.
And with precision, my decision is made,
and I stand by my word.
The decision is mine.
Life’s not a test to take,
though we all make mistakes,
I think it’s safe to say that
we’re finally warmed up.
And now with open eyes,
I’ve come to realize,
that I can’t waste my time cause,
we’re finally warmed up,
Every second I waste there’s a chance,
I won’t get what I earn.
And my desires won’t retire til they,
get me what I deserve.
I’m trying to find.
Life’s not a test to take,
though we all make mistakes,
I think it’s safe to say that
we’re finally warmed up.
And now with open eyes,
I’ve come to realize,
that I can’t waste my time cause,
we’re finally warmed up.

Today

We live our days in war,
we start our fights for sport.
No telling where I’ll stand,
when my thoughts reach my head.
Your day as leader’s over,
the day you dreamed of is coming to an end.
So tell me how your day went
better in your head.
You pleased the filth around you,
and now you’re here instead.
Tell me all the ways I,
led to falling out.
I was feeling in and out,
I was better off unsaid.
You’ve fallen off the path you lead.
You failed to reach the only thing that gets you out of bed.
So tell me how your day went
better in your head.
You pleased the filth around you,
and now you’re here instead.
Tell me all the ways I,
led to falling out.
I was feeling in and out,
I was better off unsaid.
I’m growing out of all these antics, and I don’t want to stand in line.
Don’t need a reason or an answer, I just want a better life.
Tell me how your day went,
better in your head.
You pleased the filth around you,
and now you’re here instead.
And tell me all the ways I,
led to falling out.
I was feeling in and out,
I was better off unsaid.
Tell me how your day went,
better in your head.
You pleased the filth around you,
and now you’re here instead.
And tell me all the ways I,
led to falling out.
I was feeling in and out,
I was better off unsaid.

Dear God

Dear God, I’ve hit a bit of a rough patch
You left me, and I just can’t forget that
I fought battles when you put me in a death match
All alone, you left me sitting by the door mat.
Dear God, it’s been awhile since we’ve talked
The wiring inside my head created lots of faults
and though I smile standing tall we know it’s not sincere at all,
please help me.
This can’t be our ending together
We’re still working together to get her,
We’re fighting in war zones just to get through
I’m not sure this time I might forget you.
Well I’m fighting against the acoustics,
I’m not quite sure of how to get through this
Well I’m tired of crying, my prayers aren’t worth trying,
I’ve come to a standstill, I’m not trying to hurt again
We’re fighting in warzones just to get through,
I’m not sure this time I might forget you.
How bad were my sins, cause you aren’t responding
I call for your name but it’s not worth trying
The time of my life was when I wasn’t finding
out how your light has turned out to be blinding
(How your lights have turned to be blinding)
I’m fighting against the acoustics,
I’m not quite sure of how to get through this
Well I’m tired of crying, my prayers aren’t worth trying,
I’ve come to a standstill, I’m not trying to hurt again
I’m fighting against the acoustics,
I’m not quite sure of how to get through this.
How bad were my sins, cause you aren’t responding
I call for your name but it’s not worth trying
The time of my life was when I wasn’t finding
out how your light has turned out to be blinding
(How your lights have turned to be blinding)

Brutally Honest
03:18

I try so hard not to believe
that everything that’s standing right in front of me
is exactly what it seems to be.
And soon enough I’ll cave in.
I’ll give in all my secrets,
because I’m tired of living a life
that no one will ever come to know.
I hope that you don’t mind,
when I get brutally honest
about the part of every thought
that you left running through my mind.
So now I stand in line
I hope you’ve come to think that
Aside from all the faults,
I guess that you and I will fall along.
I stand up high and watch from a ledge,
a world of problems piling high,
that have hanging on by a thread.
And as our days are wasted,
we try so hard to change it.
We trust our instincts, looking inside of us,
to find where we belong.
I hope that you don’t mind,
when I get brutally honest
about the part of every thought
that you left running through my mind.
So now I stand in line
I hope you’ve come to think that
Aside from all the faults,
I guess that you and I will fall along.

Empty Promise

Where are you now?
I can’t see anything for the life of me
that’s passed these towering walls,
that represent my darkest faults.
And I know I’ll never understand
How anyone could ever get so far
without falling hard.
I can’t catch my breath.
Deep inside my absurd mind,
I like to hide, I’m ill-advised,
and I’m not gonna take in what you say,
so have it your way.
I’m going insane after all that.
I’ve fallen into love and I’m falling apart,
I lost my way.
If nothing seems to work,
how should we expect anything to change?
I can’t catch my breath.
Do you know what you put me through?
I went to hell and back just to find you.
Empty promises in heart and mind alike.
I can’t hear the words that I’m saying cause I can’t think.
I will never back down from where I’m standing.
I’ve fallen into love and I’m falling apart,
I lost my way.
If nothing seems to work,
how should we expect anything to change?
I can’t catch my breath.
Do you know what you put me through?
I went to hell and back just to find you.
Empty promises in heart and mind alike.
I can’t hear the words that I’m saying cause I can’t think.
I will never back down from where I’m standing.
