Knuckles bloody Eyes are swollen Swear there was a fight here Waking up I know I’m on the wrong side of a nightmare Someone tell my wife Or does she know? Swear she was right here This is not the person that I am How did I get here For the 100th time I guess I fucked up now Don’t even ask for help Because it’s all run out And all that’s left is hell I see it all around Waking up to demons singing the familiar sound They go Baby I’m an addict if you knew me What’s in my veins What's going through me It’s not me but it’s my choice I’m not screaming but it’s my voice Baby I’m an addict if you knew me You’d just forget about me Yesterday I’m at a meeting Now I’m tying one on Called my sponsor to remind him I was doing it wrong He’s probably seen it all before He knew it all along When he saw me next He sat me down And we sang a song It goes For the 100th time I guess I fucked up now Don’t even ask for help Because it’s all run out And all that’s left is hell I see it all around Waking up to demons singing the familiar sound They go Baby I’m an addict if you knew me What’s in my veins What's going through me It’s not me but it’s my choice I’m not screaming but it’s my voice Baby I’m an addict if you knew me You’d just forget about me Oh My God I let you down again All My Fault I Fucked up again Cause baby I’m an addict if you knew me What’s in my veins What's going through me It’s not me but it’s my choice I’m not screaming but it’s my voice Baby I’m an addict if you knew me You’d just forget about me

I hear your words So bored and stale So preconceived They make me dumber Walk to the edge With grace and poise Without a hand to use for comfort Jump off the ledge Without the noise Without a plan From land to thunder And if I die on these streets At Least I’ll die on my feet At Least I won’t be asleep How can you sleep? After we’ve seen what we’ve seen My eyes are open And I don’t sleep anymore Can you still dream? After we’ve seen what we’ve seen My heart is broken Now I don’t sleep anymore So quaint and warm To hear the sounds 1000 likes Of white like minded That life was old So status quo The fear moved in To keep things quiet We’ve lost our bold to stand and show We know it’s sin I’m off to find it And if I die on these streets At Least I’ll die on my feet At Least I won’t be asleep How can you sleep? After we’ve seen what we’ve seen My eyes are open And I don’t sleep anymore Can you still dream? After we’ve seen what we’ve seen My heart is broken Now I don’t sleep anymore Are you listening? Or are you numb like me? “Is no one pure of heart” He asked And we all said “not one” I didn’t hold the gun But I didn’t help the young And that is why I see my hands still stained with blood How can you sleep? After we’ve seen what we’ve seen My eyes are open And I don’t sleep anymore Can you still dream? After we’ve seen what we’ve seen My heart is broken Now I don’t sleep anymore

Legion 03:59
You rang I came You begged Now pray You want saved? You’re too late You don't want to know my name What’s so hard Not so difficult now Once you start Right it off In your heart They’re so typical Their chains I’ll break You’re pain I’ll take Your safe In my hate You don’t want to know my name You don't want to know my name What’s so hard Not so difficult now Once you start Right it off In your heart They’re so typical I’m the blood on your hands The Ice in your veins They will all bend the knee If we take the reigns I’m the blood on your hands The ice in your veins They will all bend to me If we take the reigns I’m the blood on your hands The ice in your veins They will all know it’s me Don’t be so ashamed Say my name Shit

True Grit 03:08
And I’ll stop when I’m dead You’ll have to shoot me first The only way I’m leaving this Is in the back for a hearse This is blood for blood This is bigger than us This is sticking to your guns This is getting it done How could you know where I’m from? Or what I’m capable of? I was just finding out myself Don’t get too close to me cuz You give your word and that's it Then you don’t get no slack And if the going gets tough You get tough right back And when you’re scared as hell and all your friends bail Hold the line And when you scream your fears only to deaf ears Hold the line And at the end of the rope you’ve lost all hope Hold the line Hold the line Hold the line Draw all your lines Give me something to cross You’ve got not heart But I’ve got enough It’s for the both of us I was born for this He won’t let me quit This is the truest definition of the truest grit You don’t what I’d do Or where I've been to You get up out of my way Before I go right through You give your word and that's it Then you don’t get no slack And if the going gets tough You get tough right back Oh man It was a beautiful opportunity and we missed it Tell you what I’m going to do I’m gonna to take the opportunity Cause you’re not giving me shit How’s that sound? You don’t tell me what to do I tell me what to do You don’t tell me who I am I tell me who I am And when you’re scared as hell and all your friends bail Hold the line And when you scream your fears only to deaf ears Hold the line And at the end of the rope you’ve lost all hope Hold the line Hold the line Hold the line

Let it go 04:09
Hey hey Valentine Hey hey dry your eyes You can’t cry all the time You won’t flood away Hey hey it’s in your mind You're lying on the outside You’re running out of lies You can’t run away Let it go Let it go You wouldn’t know This ain't the worst thing you’ve done wrong So what you gonna do to fix things? Are you gonna cry So what you gonna do to fix the worst thing you’ve done wrong? Let it go Let it go You wouldn’t know This ain't the worst thing you’ve done wrong So what you gonna do to fix things? Are you gonna cry So what you gonna do to fix the worst thing you’ve done wrong? Let it go Let it go You wouldn’t know This ain't the worst thing you’ve done wrong Let it go Let it go You wouldn’t know But I’m the worst thing you’ve done wrong Let it go Let it go You wouldn’t know This ain't the worst thing you’ve done

She doesn't sing for you You never wanted her to And as the waves crashed down You swore you saw this coming all along It’s just a thing we do It’s how the world spins through And now the winds have changed their course You know you no longer belong And the worst thing is You never wanted this But you will die alone before she leaves you to an early grave And naturally we grow And actually she knows that it’s over And as the leaves and snow Die and melt we know we have to change or fade away And now you can’t stay friends Thats never how it ends Emotional stalemate is not a fucking option Don't pretend Cause now it’s been 10 years And it will end in tears But you know You can’t go on and on Singing a dead man’s song And the worst thing is You never wanted this But you will die alone before she leaves you to an early grave And naturally we grow And actually she knows that it’s over And as the leaves and snow Die and melt we know we have to change or fade away
