Nights spent blacking out
Always seemed so long
I know I’m worth more
Help me move along
I noticed you noticing my shakes again
But you didn’t say anything, you never said anything
Instead you just looked away with a heavy sigh
Of disappointment, of giving up
Please hear me out
Just one last time
In throwing In the towel
That white flag waiving there is mine
I woke up next to someone that wasn’t you
In a bed that wasn’t mine, in a city I don’t belong
I don’t recall either of the formers names
Oh, I wish I was wrong, god, I wish I was wrong
Please hear me out
Just one last time
In throwing In the towel
That white flag waiving there is mine
In my twenties it felt like I was dying
Falling off that same building every night
But I never hit the ground
I think I just hit it so hard
Please hear me out
Just one last time
In throwing In the towel
That white flag waiving there is mine

I’m running out of words to say
To help you understand
All the selfish reasons that
I need you here instead
Five years doesn’t seem that long
Won’t you haunt me, please haunt me
I swear that I won’t be scared
Won’t you haunt me, oh, please haunt me
I could use a little bit of your time right now
You didn’t say that much to me
Before you had to leave
But I could see it in your eyes
All the things you had inside
Five years doesn’t seem that long
Won’t you haunt me, please haunt me
I swear that I won’t be scared
Won’t you haunt me, oh, please haunt me
I could use a little bit of your time right now
Come through my walls at night
Tell me all the places that you’ve been
I’ll sit and listen quietly
And I swear that I won’t be scared
Won’t you haunt me, please haunt me
I swear that I won’t be scared
Won’t you haunt me, oh, please haunt me
I could use a little bit of your time right now

We’re Still Alive

I’ve let this go on too long
You can go talk it out
To the bottom of a bottle
Where all of this will wash away
Like it didn’t exist
If words are just words
And you know just what they will say
Actions speak louder than all
So hear me when I say
I don’t think I’ll survive
Another night like we’re still alive
I don’t mean to sound so brash
But if every I love you was fuel to this fire
Then I’d be reduced to ash
And the need for oxygen would be no more
So I’m begging you please hear me now
And smother me once and for all
So I can stop pretending like we’re still alive
Like we were alive
I hope that this finds you well
And you can go on acting like you’re alive

The sun is gone and I followed
Because I don’t want to be here
When it all fucking goes to hell
I sat and watched
The clouds cover the moon
It made everything disappear
They’re gone and never coming back

It’s safe to say
I didn’t know what I was doing from the start
Either way
I think that I could have been something so much more
I think I could make some better use of my time
When I’m with you
I wish I had been something more tangible
For you to hold on to
What do you do
When everyone can see the person you’ve become
When you gave in
They left to give you time to pick yourself back up
I think I could make some better use of my time
When I’m with you
I wish I had been something more tangible
For you to hold on to
Hold on to me
I swear that I’ll be there
Hold on to me
I swear I won’t disappear this time
I think I could make some better use of my time
When I’m with you
I wish I had been something more tangible
For you to hold on to

I’ve got a few ideas in my head
Of how I wanted it to be
Then it came and devoured me whole
HEY!
You think that you’re doing ok
Then panic comes and hits you all at once
Of all the things I wish I could say
Help me make it go away
Restless nights spent alone inside my head
Trying to finally fall asleep
Then it comes and devours me whole
HEY!
You think that you’re doing ok
Then panic comes and hits you all at once
Of all the things I wish I could say
Help me make it go away

Let’s Walk Into Hell

He’s a monster
Am I any better?
This house on fire
I just sat there
No water around
I found some gas
And watched it burn down
While still inside
Take my hand
Let’s walk into hell
All that I ask
You never let go
Kiss my mouth
Breathe everything in
Promise me
You won’t pull back
I sat in ashes
With nothing left
When you came back
You saw the black
I said nothing
Just hung my head
You whispered something
What you said was
Take my hand
Let’s walk into hell
All that I ask
You never let go
Kiss my mouth
Breathe everything in
Promise me
You won’t pull back

This Is the End

You only like the idea of me
The idea of longing for anything
Other that what I could ever be for you
I’m giving in to all your demands
Anything you say I’ll obey
I’m coming down hard from a one time high
Hitting self destruct this doesn’t end well for me
