the chaotic descent 03:38
lyrics
buy track
dreaming for days wasting away holding my breath for hours wondering why I can’t make up my mind I guess it’s out of my power the chaotic descent I never meant to hurt you in any way times have changed I’ve grown old I’m different now but I have the same soul fading and faded wasting and wasted breathing it in that sweet oxygen another line about my lungs I’m taking my time I’m doing just fine but not like I imagined when I was young the chaotic descent I’ll never repent I’ll never I’ll never they say do what you’re told you’re not that old you don’t know how cruel life can be but if they’d only seen the things that I've seen I swear to god they’d never believe times have changed I’ve grown old I’m different now but I have the same soul fading and faded wasting and wasted the chaotic descent it's never made sense it's never it's never

middle ground 03:28
lyrics

I hope it's quiet where you are I hope it's calm and that so far you've got nothing to hide I hope you're anywhere but here cause you've spent the best of eighteen years trying to keep yourself from darkness but it eats you up inside are you running from the world or are you running from yourself? you look like heaven, feel like hell are you running from the world or are you running from yourself? I look like heaven, feel like hell there's some kind of poison in my blood the most toxic form of love reminds me of your smile you were bad news and I was worse we ended in an early hearse it's no surprise it keeps me up at night are you running from the world or are you running from yourself? you look like heaven, feel like hell are you running from the world or are you running from yourself? I look like heaven, feel like hell

you always said you’d never love me i always told you i didn’t mind you always said that you controlled me i always told you it was fine there was something inside me that kept me captive maybe i was just too afraid to fly you always said let’s run away together maybe i was just too afraid to try we ended things on a bad note maybe that’s just how we’re meant to be we’d always said we’d last through ages maybe we were wrong and that’s alright maybe we were wrong and that’s just fine we ended things on a bad note maybe that’s just how we’re meant to be we always said we’d last through ages maybe we were wrong and that’s alright

save 03:16
lyrics
buy track
I spent so long living inside a hollow shell that I've learned you don't need to save the world you just need to save yourself and everything is coming together I'm recovering and everything gets better It's finally happening but I'm gravitating to the end of the beginning I’m starting something new to keep myself breathing now that I'm 26 days strong can't figure out why I waited for so long cause everything I'd thought was right turned out to be dead wrong there's nothing that feels better than letting go of the past There's nothing I can't weather I feel like breathing at last but I'm gravitating to The end of the beginning I’m starting something new To keep myself breathing and I would change their lives so they could see how I've been existing all of the times I've cried and the hours I've spent reminiscing I'm gravitating to the end of the beginning I'm starting something new to keep myself breathing

been hung 01:58
lyrics
buy track
smoke inhaled like wildfire we danced along on fragile wires beginning's end comes all too soon we always act like we're so cool we're too cool we fade to black like movie screens we fade to white like mysteries the days are numbered, oh my love I'm scared we'll only live while young my head's been hung you say there's nothing to worry about but all I've ever known is doubt you say there's nothing to worry about but all I've ever known is doubt

everything 03:20
lyrics
buy track
I wish that you could see the beauty in yourself in yourself cause everyone thinks you're just like heaven but you're in hell I wish that you could understand how much you mean to everyone and me I wish that realize you don't have to be perfect to be everything cause you're everything I know you cry yourself to sleep I know that some days you don't eat I know it's an effort just to breathe but keep going, one day you'll feel free I wish that you would let the past just stay behind out of sight and out of mind I wish that you would forgive your mistakes and let the memories day I wish that you could have just one good day or even one good night I know you cry yourself to sleep I know that some days you don't eat I know it's an effort just to breathe but keep going, one day you'll feel free please keep on breathing but do it for yourself and not anyone else cause you deserve to be alive panic attacks by train tracks shouldn't mean anything anymore you deserve to love yourself more so love yourself more I know you cry yourself to sleep I know that some days you don't eat I know it's an effort just to breathe but keep going, one day you'll feel free your skin and bones how fragile they've grown I know you cry yourself to sleep I know that some days you don't eat I know it's an effort just to breathe but keep going, one day you'll feel free

untitled, so far 02:37
lyrics
buy track
I tried to take it back I tried to change the past but I ran out of time too late to apologize I tried to fix the cracks I tried to unshatter the glass but I can see it in your eyes it’s too late to change your mind we laughed until we cried we loved until we died the world was ours to keep we’d dream until we’d sleep we breathed like the air would be gone we danced like the night was still young we lit ourselves on fire and we smiled as the flames grew higher you changed the way I thought you stole my heart but you got caught I said things I didn’t mean I just needed to say something now words don’t sound the same and you are all to blame I never thought we’d play these games it’s funny how we changed it’s funny how we changed I tried to make things last but things got bad so fast we were a song that couldn’t be sung we were a war that couldn’t be won

answer me 02:53
lyrics
buy track
we took the long way home traversed the seas and dirt roads but somewhere I lost you I prayed to find my path somewhere under the overpass but I never found the truth stumbled along the cement asked you what all of this meant but I never got an answer no, I never heard an answer what'll happen when I die will I disintegrate into the sky bones become galaxies I lie awake at night asking why nothing feels right am I living in the wrong reality stumbled along the cement asked you what all of this meant but I never got an answer no, I never heard an answer what's the point of this I'm so tired of it why won't you answer me oh god, why won't you answer me

BONUS-still 04:48
lyrics
I am waiting for a cure to rid me of these thoughts and I am aching for the pill that keeps me feeling lost tides wash over me they cleanse me of my past the ocean's rage still seems so calm I've found my place at last but in the water I am fine I still can't leave the past behind yeah, I'm still looking back waves crash around me it's funny to see myself changing but I'm still looking back I've been searching for a savior someone to rid me of my sins but I've gotta save myself first accept the demons deep within tides wash over me they cleanse me of my past the ocean's rage still seems so calm I've found my place at last but in the water I am fine I still can't leave the past behind yeah, I'm still looking back waves crash around me it's funny to see myself changing but I'm still looking back waiting for days wasting away but in the water I am fine I still can't leave the past behind yeah, I'm still looking back waves crash around me it's funny to see myself changing but I'm still looking back I'm still looking back

BONUS-fountains 07:25
lyrics
it's 10:04 I just unlocked the apartment front door been out for a while trying to heal myself it's 2:13 I couldn't sleep so I lit a cigarette and walked down the backstreets things always go this way every day I stray farther from the light that made me whole again will I make it home again? a long november day time moves different here that way been out for a while working on recovery anonymously I share what's been on mind I pray from time to time the pink cloud is so far gone I don't know where I belong been here for 28 days again 9 more till I come home again my weaknesses are defined by my strengths but lately I don't know what those are I'm losing my identity the sick girl I thought I'd always be everything comes to collapse but there's no turning back no there's no turning back I still can't breathe coughing up the blood that brings back memories I was out for a while that night "just one more time, then I'll leave my love behind" that's my favorite joke and relapse is the punchline they turn off the fountain at nightfall it's silent except when the wind calls it's hard to sleep when it's all got me by surprise they turn on the fountain at sunrise smoke burning in my eyes been up since five the water reminds me of oceans it'll always ease my emotions I'm entirely devoted to getting better but all I want is to stay sick chorus but it all comes back to me lately it all falls apart my chest is too small for my heart the pounding is driving me crazy chorus oh, mercy someone help me oh, mercy if there's a god I hope he forgives me I'm not who I used to be I've changed for the worst yet I am better I don't know how to give you up yet I'm not sick enough to get better yet I don't know if I've fallen enough yet feels like giving up is my best bet

BONUS-poison into the sea 02:21
lyrics
everything came back as I was washing the blood from my hands saw the sun fade to black, stared into it as long as I could stand I won’t lie and say that I don’t miss you I just wanted to keep you from me cause I’m toxic, baby I’m like a drop of poison into the sea into the earth, into the dirt back into the hole you’re used to I’m into the sky to tell all my lies they spread like a wildfire everything is better now I’ve got things figured out I just wanted you to hear it from me cause I’m bad news, baby lately, all my nightmares are my dreams into the waves, into the graves can’t keep my head above water I’m tossed and I’m torn, I’m lost in this storm shame to think that I am somebody’s daughter everything is clearer now I let myself drown I just wanted to keep you from me cause I’m toxic, baby I’m like a drop of poison into the sea

BONUS-carpe noctem 03:33
lyrics
-VERSE ONE- do you remember when the stars fell down we were standing by the ocean Do you remember when our lungs gave out in all of the commotion in my memory, I was terrified but in reality, I was barely alive I don’t mind you now that things have grown clear and though the voices in my head are still here everything is gonna be just fine, if I could give you this piece of advice you need to seize the night when everything was wrong I tried to breathe in all my memories of all of your sins and in the morning I awoke to my screams I’ve fallen apart at the seams the night led me to realize I have become my own sacrifice I don’t mind you now that things have grown clear and though the voices in my head are still here everything is gonna be just fine, if I could give you this piece of advice you need to seize the night I don’t mind you now that things have grown clear and though the voices in my head are still here everything is gonna be just fine, if I could give you this piece of advice you need to seize the night you need to seize the night

BONUS-gray 04:43
lyrics
they say that you are what you love then I'm the cigarettes that fill my lungs they say that you are what you know then I'm the roads that lead me back to home they say that you are what you breathe then I'm the air that’s captive inside of me they say you don’t know who you are until you begin to fall apart what if I am made to be broken what if I can’t be healed what if I am missing something and that’s why nothing ever seems real they say that you are what you dream then I'm the nightmares that keep haunting me they say that you are your mistakes then I don’t know who I've become, who I have made they say that all love is blind then I'm in love with things I've left behind they say that all love is blind then I'm in love with things I've left behind what if I am made to be broken what if I can’t be healed what if I am missing something and that’s why nothing ever seems real when I was 11 years old I lost my vision and couldn’t see life unfold when I was only but thirteen I took some pills and I had my first drink when I was only but fifteen I tried and tried and tried to get clean what if I am made to be broken what if I can’t be healed what if I am missing something and that’s why nothing ever seems real what if deep deep down I'm gray and everybody else just fades to black
