Backbone 03:45
Bet he's a keeper I'm just the product of heartbreak recalled to the factory Stitch me up, tear me down; whichever is cheaper I've been waiting too long for a better outcome What do they have that I don't? I've got this backbone Sure it's curved a bit from the weight of the world bearing down on it Don't take this the wrong way like you've been known to do But it's straightened a touch since I last saw you I've got an ego bigger than you could imagine But I tore it apart for this worthless attraction Putting pen to paper, the real world feels so much safer It left me out here alone so I'll return the favour I've got this backbone Sure it's curved a bit from the weight of the world bearing down on it Don't take this the wrong way like you've been known to do But it's straightened a touch since I last saw you The lines on your face like the fades on your jeans Tell a story that's got no more traces of me I watched the ghost of you pave a road through Hell Clearly my good intentions never served me well The lines on your face like the fades on your jeans Tell a story that's got no more traces of me I watched the ghost of you pave a road through Hell Clearly my good intentions never served me well The ghost of you pave a road through Hell Clearly my good intentions never served me well I've got this backbone Sure it's curved a bit from the weight of the world bearing down on it Don't take this the wrong way like you've been known to do But it's straightened a touch since I last saw you The lines on your face like the fades on your jeans Tell a story that's got no more traces of me I watched the ghost of you pave a road through Hell Clearly my good intentions never served me well

Alchemy 03:41
The bags under my eyes used to be carry on but now I've gotta check them in every time I wanna move along I don't know how the easiest thing in the world became so hard but in the morning I just wanna get up and leave but I can't I'm too tired to sleep I've been trying for days Believe me I can't stay on my feet I don't know how I got this way I've been trying my hands at alchemy Turning lead to gold I guess that would explain why this pencil I'm holding scratched down the lines I wrote The bags under my eyes used to be carry on but now I've gotta check them in every time I wanna move along I don't know how the easiest thing in the world became so hard but in the morning I just wanna get up and leave but I can't I guess it's one of those days Stretch it to one of those weeks This is the time when I wanna turn my brain off but this is when my thoughts peak I've been trying my hands at alchemy Turning lead to gold I guess that would explain why this pencil I'm holding scratched down the lines I wrote I'm fighting my genes I think I could take them if they're as bad as they say I'm living my dreams and if they were nightmares then at least I know I could cope The bags under my eyes used to be carry on but now I've gotta check them in every time I wanna move along I don't know how the easiest thing in the world became so hard but in the morning I just wanna get up and leave but I can't

I'm not used to giving up but there's a first time for everything. I've been dragging my feet just to keep on the ground. My souls are torn to shreds, just like the one in my head Just like the one in my head. Ae you aware of the time we've got? Skip the spinning rims, we're on the clock. I'm wearing myself down just to keep you around. I fucked up this time but those fuck ups are mine. I learned from the mistakes I made not too long ago I'll play it smart this time I'll play it smart this time There's this distance I guess, but I'm persistent at best and I've got legs don't I I've got legs don't I and when they buckle and I'm tired of running I'll crawl my way back home and the bruises on my knees will remind me I've got nowhere left to go There's this distance I guess, but I'm persistent at best and I've got legs don't I I've got legs don't I and when they buckle and I'm tired of running I'll crawl my way back home and the bruises on my knees will remind me I've got nowhere left to go

Sink Or Swim 04:06
I wish the world would end so I can just fall asleep. I've been up all night every night for the past week. I'd like other sleepless hearts so I don't feel alone in this. I've come to terms with how we're falling apart. I remember when yearning for the past meant looking back on a memory. I remember when we could look back, but nostalgia's not what it used to be. Hell or high water I'd go back there But I'd rather the floods than the fire Sink or swim I can just about stay afloat but I can't take the heat so thank God I'd be dead on the pyre I want a new perspective I want to see the world anew. I wanna see the best in everything like you do. I'd like other bitter hearts so I don't feel alone in this I've come to terms with how we're falling apart I remember when yearning for the past meant looking back on a memory. I remember when we could look back, but nostalgia's not what it used to be. Hell or high water I'd go back there But I'd rather the floods than the fire Sink or swim I can just about stay afloat but I can't take the heat so thank God I'd be dead on the pyre I feel it, I feel it burning I feel the waters rising. I think in one swift decadent motion I could put out the fires with the flames of the ocean Hell or high water I'd go back there But I'd rather the floods than the fire Sink or swim I can just about stay afloat but I can't take the heat so thank God I'd be dead on the pyre

Is it still called an afterlife if I never really lived the first one? Could I get in with a plus one whose lived enough for two? It never really hit me how one day I'd just end But when I end I'll end it all with you I've got the patience of a saint If good things come to those who wait I'm expecting so much to come to me I should have given up long ago But I know that I can get you the way you got me I can get you the way you got me Is it still called an afterlife if I never really lived the first one? Could I get in with a plus one whose lived enough for two? I think I'm reaching breaking point I guess I could stay right here so you can play catch up to where I am I know that I can get you the way you got me I can get you the way you got me Is it still called an afterlife if I never really lived the first one? Could I get in with a plus one whose lived enough for two? It never really hit me how one day I'd just end But when I end I'll end it all with you I've been asked how my days I say that everything's fine But I can see in the eyes of the people who ask me They can tell I'm lying every time I'm a liar and that's all I'll ever be I'm a liar, but what more can you expect from me? I've been asked how my days I say that everything's fine But I can see in the eyes of the people who ask me They can tell I'm lying every time I'm a liar and that's all I'll ever be I'm a liar, but it's working out for me Is it still called an afterlife if I never really lived the first one? Could I get in with a plus one whose lived enough for two? It never really hit me how one day I'd just end But when I end I'll end it all with you

Calm Down 04:44
I'm haunted by moments passed The way we're not built to last I'm holding myself hostage to this half empty glass There's a wasted waste of space on this wasted stage with a voice going out of style Well I guess I could stay for a while I guess I could stay So calm yourself down Everything's gonna be fine And even if it's not, it's the best we've got I bet the guy next to you is having just as bad a time If not worse than mine Give me your best shot Trust me I can handle it I've been taking what you've been dishing out all night I've been wasting my time Begging to escape the sight of myself looking pathetic To my credit that's my new just fine So calm yourself down Everything's gonna be fine And even if it's not, it's the best we've got I bet the guy next to you is having just as bad a time If not worse than mine So calm yourself down Everything's gonna be fine I really wish I could believe it You fucked me up and now you're leaving me I bet the guy next to you is having just as bad a time If not worse than mine
