Our seams were ripping slowly.
You can't prevent the gap from growing,
When nothing can conceal the distance we both feel.
But you would laugh without it,
and I would sulk about it.
I've been stuck inside my head,
Hoping that you would notice.
In your eyes I wasn't worth your time.
I'll stay off the red line, they're the tracks I despise.
How can you concentrate on me if your conscience digs so deep?
You say the focus is on us, but that remains to be seen.
I found my footing without you,
I hope it shows.
I found my footing without you,
So let it go.
Do you ever find yourself thinking of me?
When you were the one who decided to leave.
You taught me to float but now I'm starting to sink.
I can't see the surface and the water won't recede.
And now it's getting hard to breathe.
How can you concentrate on me if your conscience digs so deep?
You say the focus is on us, but that remains to be seen.
I found my footing without you,
I hope it shows.
I found my footing without you,
So let it go.

Storm Clouds

It's four degrees and the snow is blowing across my windshield,
Digging your nails into my arms just to explain the way you feel.
Does my heart beat slow or is it cold?
I pray to God that I'll slide off of the road.
Is it fair when the dice all have the same sides?
Peeling bad luck from my eyes.
I couldn't find stability no matter how hard I tried.
Optimism feels like a lie.
I couldn't get out of bed.
Remember how you said that you wish I was happy?
Today I got out of bed and tried to go outside, felt the rain fall around me.
I'm losing you,
you're only found in the flashes of lightening.
Cause when your head is stuck in a storm cloud,
it's hard to find the beauty.
It's fucking freezing.
It's hard to wake up when I'm still having trouble sleeping.
And I'll leave all the lights on.
I fall asleep to all your favorite songs.
And I still close my eyes, hoping I'll see where I went wrong.
But when I wake up, you're still gone.
I couldn't get out of bed.
Remember how you said that you wish I was happy?
Today I got out of bed and tried to go outside, felt the rain fall around me.
I'm losing you,
you're only found in the flashes of lightening.
Cause when your is stuck in a storm cloud,
it's hard to find the beauty.
And I still close my eyes, hoping I'll see where I went wrong.
But when I wake up, you're still gone.
You're still gone.

What's the point of living like a pawn?
When nothing stays the same from the start of day one.
Cause we're changing. Cause we're changing. Re-animating our own corpses in
metamorphosis
We always find a way a to do what we have to
You gotta stand your ground and get what you came for
This is the way that we sleep at night
It's in the way that we fight
I'm rough around the edges
I'm far and few between
This is my own catharsis
I don't care if it's uninspiring
Turn it up til you can't hear anymore
Turn it up until you drown what makes you weak
Cuz we're living in virtual metaphors
Typing up what we refuse to speak
(Cuz we're living with )
Self inflicted
Pixelation
Has driven our eyes the fascination
Of our
Pretentious, narcissistic, state of mind
(OH!!!!!!)
I'm rough around the edges
I'm far and few between
This is my own catharsis
I don't care if it's uninspiring
Cuz we're suburban legends
Stuck in reality
This is my own catharsis
I don't care if you've never heard of me!

I'm burning photographs from Fullerton
I'm wearing blankets built from tourniquets
I hit rock bottom
And found a gold mine
Oceans turn to shallow seas
(And truths morph into fallacies)
In a war with doubts
We're on the front lines
Take a moment and catch your breath
I promise, I promise I mean you no disrespect
We live in the present in moments we won't forget
If I'm being honest I'm trying to be the
(The best hasn't happened yet)
You chose valentines
Over masterminds
It's such a crime
You do this every single time
(This is what I get for being reckless)
My only problem is I care too much
You always fail because you start to rush
It's all fun and games til' someone loses their mind
We're here and we're singing!
We're here and we're singing...
...WOOOAAAHHH-OOH-OOOOOHHHHH
WOOOAAAHHH-OOH-OOH-OOOOOHHHHH
