All these fucking people
I've just about had it
I'm not asking for truth
I just want to be alone
You won't get that here
X my eyes, mark it on the map
Leave me there, so I can feel free
X my eyes, mark it on the map
Leave me there, so I can breathe
I don't think you'd dare
Real bitch, nothing man about you
I'm not the one to fuck with
Sixteen Tons, bitch

If I could get you one-on-one
Don't make me
If I were you and you were me
I'd like to see how you'd see this
I know the type of guy you really are
So don't make me
If I did what you did, you'd hate me
I don't care what you do, or who you know
So sick of the pretense and the ego
If I could get you one-on-one
Just fists, no friends to help you out
It would get real bad, promise you that
You've got a big mouth
If it were me and you in one room
If you're a real man, you would make a move
Get out of my fucking face
Straight bitch

Help me please, I've been dragging my feet
It's getting hard to carry on,
it seems I'm not that strong after all
One step too far
I've gone off the deep end
I've lost sight of who I am
There's nothing that I can do
There is a piece of me that wants to believe
I made my life for me
There is a piece of me that wants to believe
I'm not waiting for you to save me
I won't wait
There's nothing left for me
For years, it's been this way
I think it's safe to say
I'm waiting for brighter days
Back then it seemed life was tearing at the seems for me
Now I feel at ease, I can finally breathe
Back then it seemed life was hell for me
But now I finally see
There is a piece of me that wants to believe
I made my life for me
There is a piece of me that wants to believe
I'm not waiting for you to save me

I tread these streets alone
Abandoned by everyone I know
I tamed this beast all by myself
No longer do I need your god damned help
Where would you be
I'm not putting my faith into the wind
I'm not looking to start again
If I try to speak my mind
See through the mist and white lies
I hate every word I hear
Left alone
No longer will I live my life in fear

I tried to get home before the thoughts hit
I didn't make it
I hope the water is clear on the other side
Drink from it and be whole again, let it fill your spirit
These clothes don't fit anymore, the stitches are ripping
I wish you could see this, I think you'd be proud
I'm still here with open arms
Wishing that you'd come back to me
If it were up to me, you wouldn't have left
We were convinced you were too young
But you've lived a full life
There is no reason that you shouldn't be here

Enemy
You're pushing me away
You're pushing me over the edge
If I were alone, I'd make the deal
Call it quits
I'm over this
You don't deserve a fucking medal
You don't deserve anything at all
I'm putting this plague to rest
You're pushing me away
It's better than smothering me
You've been holding me back
Now I see that it's not really worth hanging on
You want to play the victim
Quit burning every bridge in your path
Enemy
You don't deserve a fucking medal
You don't deserve anything at all
Left me for dead

Seasoned Storms

Eventually I have to admit I'm wrong about something
The water's getting deeper, but I'm not under yet
The ship on the horizon
Help is on the way
In a way, I feel the rays of glimmering hope
How long will that stay
Will it fade away
I'm not strong enough, I can't do this alone
Through the seasoned storms, and the deepest ocean
Some will not be happy, some will never see the sun
But that's not me, and that's not you
Through the seasoned storms, and the deepest ocean
I will never fade
As long as you don't leave
You can break me down and smear me on the walls
Leave my true colors for all to see
It doesn't mean anything to me
I know you're just lost
It's not a fear for me
Some will not be happy, some will never see the sun
But that's not me, and that's not you
Through the seasoned storms, and the deepest ocean
I will never fade

I never thought I'd be up this late
I hate these conscious thoughts, and it's all for you
Would you do the same for me
The reflection doesn't shine the way it used to
Maybe for me, life has no peak
You're like the faces that I see in my dreams
You can't see what this means to me
I'm up to no good, you're right there with me
Read the writing on the wall
It's not the same after all
They took away mouths to feed, replaced them with mud
Routine is my name
And I'm not fucking happy
The world is dying with me
Die in filth
Drown in blood
I've chewed my nails to nubs for you
I was never close enough
You're like the faces that I see in my dreams
You can't see what this means to me
I'm up to no good, you're right there with me
Read the writing on the wall
It's not the same after all

Backstabber at heart
You were scum from the start
Resentment seeps into my bones
Forever searching for a place to call home
I hope you choke on the bullshit you force fed me
I'm tired of trying, so just let me be
Swallow your pride
I've long lost mine
If I could see you, I'd return the knife you left in my back
Swallow your pride

I know you're selfish, and you could deal with some introspection
Always the victim, always innocent
I hope you learn from this
Don't blame me for your insecurities
If you were someone else, I'd be wishing you well
I just can't see how you get any sleep
If I were you right now, I'd feel bad for myself
Don't expect anything from me
Don't blame me
You have so many flaws
But you blame the world for how you are
You're wearing me thin
You can't tell me what I've been through,
And what I fucking haven't
Coward
It's about time you stop that fucking act
If you were someone else, I'd be wishing you well
I just can't see how you get any sleep

Feral Ground

How hard would it be, just for once, to keep it to yourself
Have some pride and self respect, and sink into the depths
You are toxic, I'd rather suffocate myself
You are toxic
If you could take my hand, I think I'd be fine
I'm not the type to take the reins
I must explain, I'm writhing in pain
Wading through the sandstorm, I won't shut my eyes
To say I never felt alive would be dishonest,
I'm longing for the cure, will there will be a guiding light
Or some sort of feral ground

If you ain't from around here, don't fucking come here
Hostile
It's not good for your health, so I would watch your mouth
You aren't where I'm fucking from
You're as fake as they come
You haven't lived this
You haven't seen the streets not once in your fucking life
I've seen your kind and you're all the same
The streets are calling my name
Hostile
You are a fake and you won't do much
You aren't from where I'm from
You and your friends can talk real tough
I don't suggest you act up
