Let It Go

How can you sleep through the night
While knowing you lost everything that had made you unique?
And how easy it was to let it go?
Now you are what you hate
It didn’t take long to erase
The intangibles of the heart and soul
Who you are, where you’re from, what you were
And I just can’t take it anymore
Smother or break it anymore
The way you desperately
Wanted to run so far away
Told all the lies I can’t believe
When you say you’ll never be
But it won’t go away
It’ll never leave
You’re never alone anymore
Cause the voice in your head is so loud you can’t ever ignore
You’re out of your mind and out of control
Let it out, hold it in
Break it down, it’s still deep down within
But I keep trying to release
Let it go...let it go....
And I just can’t take it anymore
Smother or break it anymore
The way you desperately
Wanted to run so far away
Told all the lies I can’t believe
When you say you’ll never be
But it won’t go away
It’ll never leave
Whoa oh oh x2
Cause I’ve been trying for so long
But I still need it every day
Whoa oh oh x2
Let it go
No you’ll never ever ever let it go...

I’m going out there in the wind and the rain
I’m leaving town and hopping a train
I’ve got a one-way ticket in a box on a pile of leaves
And a backpack hard enough to put my head on to sleep
Don’t you think you’ll be alone?
Sho nuff, I swear I know that this is all that I’ll ever need
Just my six strings and a pound of evergreen
Ooh Ooh Ooh you’ve got it made x2
These four walls get smaller every time I turn the light on to see
And these floorboards keep rising up right beneath my feet
Don’t you think you’ll be alone
Forever clinging to a hopeless impossible dream?
As long as it’s here I’m ok with anything
New York
I think I might be falling in love
But something tells me you’ll just break my heart
Once more
I think I might be falling in love
But something tells me you’ll just break my heart

Whatever It Takes

I’m just gonna take the long way, baby
And swallow up all my hopes
And digest all my decisions
While stuffing them down my throat
And I hope, I hope you’re happy
I hope you got what you sowed
And I hope, I hope you know that
You’re in this all alone
I can only hope, only hope you let go
Give up, Give up, you know I like it
Whatever it takes to keep you satisfied
And I know that you can’t bring me down
You’re just gonna take the wrong way, baby
I’ll follow you in the dark
Cause I don’t, don’t have a choice
But to lead in directions that constantly take us so far
Away from where we
Can only hope to be
And I hope, I hope you know that
You’re in this without me
I can only hope, only hope you let go

Buried Alive

Do you think you know all there is to know?
Throw it all at me, say you’re trying to see if
I have what it takes, if I demonstrate
Enough loyalty to enter on my knees
And begging and pleading at your feet
But I’m dying at the thought of losing sleep
For so long x2
Is there any way to make you concentrate
And think about the days when we went separate ways
And how it felt so right to go on with our lives
But we’re intertwined and will be til we die
No matter, no matter what you say
Cause it’s binding and it’s got a hold of me
I am buried alive
When you look at me, tell me what you see
Say it like you mean it and don’t hold back a thing
I need to know
Am I wasting all my time and what’s left of my life?
Struggle every day and running out of ways to pay back all I owe
Owe that and more
No matter what you say
Cause it’s binding and it’s got a hold of me
I am buried alive
You think you know, but you don’t
It’s overblown, but is it really though?
I keep tossing and turning in my sleep
And I’m crying every week
And I’m dying inside
I am buried alive

I have standards, I keep holding
I am grasping and clutching and crawling
And slipping and falling
I am stranded, I am all alone
On an island, and I’m facing the wrong way
It’s been such a long day
I sold my clothes for the lowest bid
And burned my books into the wind
But what’s it for? What’s it worth?
Send it back into the Earth
I have standards, I am seeking
I am searching trying to find a new way
I know that I can’t stay
I am stuck here, I’m not getting out
I am drowning and it’s happening every day
I keep fighting anyway
I am holding out, I’m told that it’s hopeless
And there’s something wrong here
And this shit is endless
I’m giving up and denying everything
There’s nothing wrong here
No reason to mention it
It’s so hard to believe when it’s dead around me x3, I’m afraid

A Letter To
01:43
|

I can’t help but keep wondering
How my life got ahead of me
And when the future had disappeared
Right beside all those wasted years
Now I’m living a double life
And I’m failing at both of mine
Wear all my insecurities
For all of the world to see
The imposter is here to stay
Repeating all of his old mistakes
Knows too well he is past his prime
After midnight and out of time
I think I hate what I’ve become
Turning out just like everyone
I had hoped I would never be
But now just fucking look at me
Cause I know I’ll never make it
Don’t want even want to try to fake it
Now I’m feeling old
And I’m fleeting
Don’t even want to see the sunrise
I’ve seen it all before
I don’t need to anymore

Long, Long Lasting Life
01:36

I meant to tell you that I loved you
But I saw you and I forgot to
Don’t hold on and don’t hold out
Cause I’ll let you down cause I let everyone down
I’m trying to find a way to say it’s not alright
I’m dying to find out where you see the source of light
I’m clinging to the thought of passionately dying
But with you I see a long, long lasting life
You’ve gotta find a way to tumble and crumble
And hold me down and don’t let me be humble
Forget what I say cause I don’t know
Anything anyways but fake that I know everything

Apparent Meandering
05:43
|
|||
My eyes are wide but I’ve closed my mind
I’m giving up cause my spirit is tired
All I want and all I need is a little peace
My body is breaking and there’s nothing that I can do
Cause this is how it ends, I’ve always wondered what it was
That would end me
So won’t you take me away to
Where I become a tree root
And while my body disappears
Know I’ll never leave you
X2
My heart has been broken like it never had a beat
But I guess that’s how it feels to be completely alone
Like I am
So won’t you please close the door
And put down the key
It will never work again cause the locks are cheap
And I nailed down the floors just so I could rest in peace
I won’t settle for a good night’s sleep
