Old Habits
04:00

You caught me yelling in my sleep again
A small fraction of who I once was
That's not me anymore
Sometimes I wish it was
An unbeaten reckless future freshly stamped on you
The great unknown spilling into an empty hole
Unmarked path for the ill advised
Getting lost on a dark dirt road
Stumbling out of ditches
Finding secrets out of the dark
You caught me sleeping again
Losing daylight while reliving the past
That's not me anymore
Sometimes I wish it was
How could I recognize anyone?
Walking on land mines to feel something
A past driven by self reflection
Dive bombing into the dark
Old habits are dying hard
You caught me dreaming again
Wishing I was somewhere else
That's not me anymore
Sometimes I wish it was
Old habits dying hard
Old habits are killing me

Who Needed Who

Who needed who
Projecting deeply rooted issues into a colorless void
Distant
Vacant
Disconnected from the world
I found the open wound
Fighting confidence with tooth and nail
When you realize this can't be the same
When the world won't wait for you
Who needed who
Was it me or was it you
Who broke the bond and lit the fuse
Disengaged and ill informed
The kids never stood a chance
Broken homes and defunded souls
Who needed who
Projecting deeply rooted issues into a colorless void
I lost myself in the shallow waters
Disconnect from the free world
Detached from your head
Who the fuck do you see when you look in the mirror
Is it who you want to be
Who is who
Identity crisis to cleanse your brain
Find the ease to step away and embrace imbalance
Disengaged
Who needed who
Was it me or was it you
Who the fuck do you see when you look in the mirror
Is it who you want to be
Who is who
Identity crisis to cleanse your brain
Who needed who
Was it me or was it you

Sinking
02:56
|

I've had too many days of finding myself stuck between the sheets and the mattress
Broken dialogue between myself and my mind
I can't find the right words to finally break free
But I'll waste away any free time drowning in dismay and overthought intrusive thoughts until I die
I have to try
Because who am I to let my time be wasted
I can't be this shell with a homemade visage
Writing serenades of love that brings hope
I can't be this leader or anyone to look up to
The freedom of escape is all I crave but can't shake how I want to die
I know I'm not good enough to finally be free
But I can't keep letting myself sink this low
This can't be me
How many times do I have to repeat this
What day will it finally sink in
I can't be another broken stat slumming through their dreams
This can't be me

Wool Covered Eyes

I felt alone
Wool covered eyes
Not sleeping through the night
Destructive mind
You need to be alone
Where could you go
Disease absorbing the focus out of you
Control is gone never will return
Crashing existence into reality
I want it all, can't reform
The nagging stinging in the chest I adore
Married to it all can't leave a dying love
Obsessed with rotted goals
That will never be fulfilled
Pulling hair out to the floor
A weight around the neck
Sinking feeling through the chest
This pressure makes you sick
Where are you going to be that makes you see
You can't force sincerity
Where could you go
Bury yourself in distractions
Avoid the pain
Tell yourself half truths
Cope and self sustain
Who's going to be there at the end
Can you be who you need to be
Accept this numbing feeling
Distracted eyes for a found divide
That stinging feeling that won't let you hide
I felt alone
Where could you go
I felt alone
Where could you go to avoid it all
