The Flood
03:02

Shallow minds and lovesick hearts never beating from the start
Still taking shots from yesterday trying to make up for the games we play
I'm drowning in this just like a flood it fills my lungs I'm giving up
You keep telling me I'll be just fine but this shit happens all the time
I'm finally seeing what's in front of me
No more hiding from this I can't stand it help me sing this
Darling i confess this flood is higher than the rest
And I will do my best to keep my head above this
There I was time I thought that I would look back on these days
But when I do it's in disgust, I'll tell myself it's just a phase
I left my home for this and you took it away, don't think you'll be missed
I wish that you'd stay gone
Locked doors no escape and now I'm gasping for air
don't think for a second that I still care about you

Take Me Back

I always wondered how these things would turn out
And where I'm gonna be
I didn't think it'd really be this hard, in fact,
I thought that it'd be easy
I told myself that things would change
That faith and hope would find a way
But I still stand here waiting for that day
Take me back to the times that were easy
Take me back cause life is getting hard
Take me back cause I'm scared to fall
Take me back before I have nothing, nothing at all
Remember when everything was just a game?
But this game turned out unfair
When we could stay out all night, it didn't matter cause we didn't care
We used to say we're having fun but look where we are now
The games have just begun and i have nowhere to run
Oh please help me someone save me it's not easy
I need to run away I need to figure this shit out
I hate this mess we made but we made it somehow
I made a huge mistake I went left instead of right
I fear I don't belong here this burning feeling inside
I used to push away the ones that mattered but I never understood
I had to realize I was wrong in the end you're nothing good
I tell myself that I have changed my faith and hope have found a way
Now I can move on from those weary day

Cheapshot of the Year
02:44
|

It's not the first time I've been the bad guy
The sad part is I'm getting used to it now
Happiness becomes over rated
You're everything that I've ever hated
Step back, give me some space
So just in case you fall from grace
I won't be there to catch you while you shake
I'll be waiting for your back to break
Suck it up walk it off like it never happened at all
And now your backs against the wall so you're begging to come home
Take it back watch your step and try to stay in line
I won't save you again this time
I'll take the cheapshot of the year
Tell me what I have to do to get through to you
After everything you already put me through
Who am I to be your perfect alibi?
Who am I t be the truth beneath your lies?
I'm bending, you're breaking
I'm giving, you're taking
I'm running, you're crawling
I'm singing, you're falling down
Your grace is gone and there's nowhere to hide now
Curtains fall, lights dim, take your final bow
You played your role there was never an encore
Exit left to no roses at your door
Soon enough you'll never hear from me
I'll just be part of your memories
Tell you're friends that I'm the one to blame
All that pain with nothing left to gain

When We Were Royalty
03:21
|

Everyone's talking all around me but I can't seem to hear a sound
These words are stuck inside my head just begging for me to let them out
Now I'm all alone in a crowded room the walls are covered in pictures of you
I'd break them down but it'd break me too
Here we go again your head in the clouds and your feet in the sand
It's all or nothing baby come on and take my hand
what a tragedy your majesty it's getting harder and harder to breath
Won't you come back with me
Back when we were Royalty
I dream of the day when you realize just what you did to me
You fall to your knees and tell me how you're truly sorry
The more you see the more you forget I always put you above the rest
Between you and me there's nothing left

Better Off Without You
03:03
|

I used to think my life was perfect when we were together
Why were we together again?
I kept a closed mind I painted a picture of our perfect future
But I'll never paint it again
Tell me something I'll remember
I'll never forget the way you called my name
Somethings can't be replaced
but somethings they will never be the same
Don't tell me
You've changed at all
That's okay I'm better without you
You cheat, you lied please tell me why
I ever cared or even tried I'm done with holding on
It's time to let you go
I have a hold on things
I'm done with listening to all your cries
So all I have to say to you
this time it's goodbye
I'd say that I want you back but I can't say that cause I'd be lying
I know you secretly regret it I won't let you forget it
I'll make sure you know that
Please tell me you're going home
That's okay I'm better without you
I'm better
Without you
