Dear God 04:28
lyrics

Everybody from the streets came marching in One by one soldiers suit up to fight again Leave all your families, get ready for insanity And kiss your loving daughters goodbye I feel the weight of all the world The fear builds up as the shots from a gun are heard As we kill humanity, there is a lack of clarity The stars have lost their rays of light Everybody wants to know Where are you now? Everybody wants to know God will you ever show? I've screamed your name a thousand times There's nobody listening, can you hear me? I've tried so hard to find my way This road is misleading, so deceiving I've got a dream that pulls me right back again It haunts me with the death of all my friends Pains rooted deep inside, and the tears drip from my mothers eyes I promised her i'm coming home We'll start a riot (I don't believe it) I am, waiting Please God, save me Cause i'm so lost

I'm never on time with my words, they catch on my tongue We spend days hanging out i'll pretend i'm cool with you, telling me all about him It drives me crazy, i'm lost in reverie I would sink into your cells if only you let me And i'll make it through Even if its not with you I know i'm too late But still i would wait For you I couldn't think of anything else I remember the day, when she introduced herself I felt her voice keep my world from falling apart A predictable story, of a boy who fell in love Her smile was the question worth spending my life answering Your a ghost, staying the night Will you haunt me for the rest of my life?

Miles Apart 04:39
lyrics

I've watched you struggle to breathe from afar I've been waiting like heat in the fall To say these words, i don't know if i can make this work When i'm with you i cannot explain How i'm taken by your embrace Miles apart we seem Yeah construe the thoughts that are in my head, you take me over Honestly, I haven't figured you out yet You've won me over I couldn't fight the storm when we walked back to your house It kicked and clawed, and it crawled its way to my heart I was scared, you had me feeling so unprepared For the moment when you called my name I was so close and yet so far away I wasn't so sure, but i couldn't ignore The way our hearts collide, and I Wanted to be, your everything If you, would let me in Because i've dreamed of you with me a hundred thousand times

Keep Me Alive (Featuring Brendan Machowski) 03:46
lyrics
buy track
My voice changed with the seasons. Do you recognize the sound? I picked my head up off the Back Bay pavement where we slept. I traded security for what I love. I'll call home every now and then. I know I missed the holidays, its something I regret. With a picture of my father in hand, it keeps me alive. Any luck i had was patience. You left your songs out in the sun, and everyone was having fun. For what its worth, mine are more like a funeral dirge. An eye sore, a stomach ache from the night before. And I'll sleep with the fan on low at night. To mask the sounds of metaphors that describe my life. (Stay where you are) I let you in to see if i could take it. You rummaged through my thrift shop mind. And walked back to the car. I'll call home every now and then. I know I missed the holidays, And I'll regret, the time I spent. But I found my love, in the darkest place. And I'm not afraid to say, it keeps me alive.

Hold On 04:20
lyrics

The blood that covers up his skin Its tracing through his veins The deepest cuts are ones that no one sees Stumbling across the room, he barely stays awake I'd rather not know how you made it home Tossing and turning a knife fight My bed doesn't feel like home Maybe it's time to forget me It's time to let me go Over and over we yell and we fight Using to cope with the pain thats inside Watching my room collapse on itself You have good intent but i don't need your help I wish that i could find the strength to pick you off the ground A pocketful of reasons keep us down I can't let go of what i did It haunts me in my dreams Let me choose the path to my own peace Running in circles gets real old A time bomb ticking slow I can't hold on any longer Its time to let me go

Synapse 04:40
lyrics

You can tell a lot about somebody By the way they leave you I love you in summer is much different than the winter They don't mean what they say It's over, but i was begging you to stay It's over, you didn't need me anyways I never knew that you could change your mind Its dangerous how you feed your lust Your a criminal and a thief And i'm a victim to every one of your vices You don't mean what you say My blood is on your hands I tried to cover your trail so you'd be fine But you soak in its color so damn well I am cursed by your spell I can't let you go When you see my face, it will be brand new You'll never know how badly i missed you You'll never know And in my life, your stored away with time Thats all you get to be inside my mind A memory i'll leave these words, i'll leave them carved in stone But if you ever try and call my name I won't be there

If i could forget it, i'd see more clear Maybe i could make it another year My mind is always moving in retrograde If i recall the feelings that you once gave It's a sad time to be alone She loves it, and i want her To love me So lonely

I got lost at the heart again It beats, without much rhythm I'm empty of ecstasy I'm burnt out, with a lack of oxygen My night terrors swallow me A tremor that won't stop shaking I've got an anchor at my feet That will leave me in this ocean I've come to realize I can't always escape from my mind Will you carry me out, of this hell that i'm in I still crave a bit of Ketamine Or anything that will help me sleep Suppress the anxiety Of a life that will never be stable I've given everything short of my final breath My voice clenched shut as the air grew cold When i welcomed death I've always felt invisible Caught up inside the worst of me I know you'll say that i'll make it out okay Please don't walk away Cause i need you to carry me out There's a lot of my dad in me A reflection, a growing seed Filled with downfalls you don't know I fight my demons on my own I've let down those closest to me I'm such a fuck up, can't you see Lost and aimless, nothing left to say The scent on my breath drives my pain away I've clung to the rope tied to my ceiling fan I'd kick the chair under my feet if you weren't there All alone i was sure i'd die Almost a memory you kept me alive ​

Something Left (Featuring Lisa Vassallo) 05:48
lyrics

Wipe away the tears from your eyes I promise you these times go by Love is so elusive, its so hard to find You feel like you're one step behind Cause i know you feel lost in your way No one else can understand your pain Everyone says to run away All you want to do is stay It's hard to leave the place where your heart made its home We're scared of being alone We test our fate with time A luxury so hard to find But if we lose our faith and trust Is there something left for us Leave all your fears behind I promise you, you'll be alright And even if we fall, we'll slip away Your eyes will open up another day You don't need me dragging you down (I feel your pain) Let me slip away (I feel your pain) You can't save me from myself (Let me help you escape) I'll never be okay (Let me help you escape) You don't know the things i feel (I need you to stay) You can't help me escape (I need you to stay) I'm so scared of what life brings (You don't know that i need you now) I think i'll run away (You don't know that i need you now) A picture is worth a thousand words Here's one of you and me When you feel the world has turned its back on you I'll be there
