All of this was irrelevant Your motives are surfacing Self pity has turned to spite Again You hate to say it but your life is vacant No friends, No saviours You’ve turned and betrayed them As if it was for nothing You choose to drag it out You’ve wasted so much time I’ve wasted my life Buried inside No turning back Pain in my side Knives in my back Knives in my back As if it was for nothing You choose to drag it out You’ve wasted so much time I’ve wasted my life Like knives in my back Or pain in my side Start to feel it Fall into place Fall into place No friends, No saviours You’ve turned and betrayed them No friends, No saviours You’ve turned and betrayed them As if it was for nothing You choose to drag it out You’ve wasted so much time I’ve wasted my life Like knives in my back Or pain in my side Start to feel it Buried inside No turning back Pain in my side Knives in my back

Undertow 02:31
I’m so sick Of all of this I’ll never say what you want me to And I won’t change because you do Get rid of the old for new I told you nothing changes Forever stuck in your ways Can’t stop Repeated Every crooked step to the edge Take one more (till you feel it) Just one more (so you feel it) Tell me again exactly how I see it Tell me again exactly how I see it Cuz I’m so sick Hope to end before it begins Every crooked step to the edge This undertow Undertow Undertow You feel the fire but you won’t move faster A hand extended but you sleep in embers You think we want it? Don’t speak. Maybe a saviour is not what we need Fuck You feel the fire but you won’t move faster Faster, Faster

Tyler Durden 03:36
Lost in my own Led by a small light Everything has closed in I’m saving every breath tonight Think as black tar Punctured with a red knife A shadow on an hourglass A metaphor for life I’m breathing deep And you’re passed out on the floor Laying in alcohol I’m separating From your being Words in my head Seeping in and haunting me I’ll restlessly stay The thought of you is daunting It’s 6 in the morning and I thought of leaving I’m breathing deep And you’re passed out on the floor Laying in alcohol I can’t pick up the pieces Cause I’m over this and under slept Done with cleaning up your mess I’m breathing deep And you’re passed out on the floor Laying in alcohol I’m separating From your being I’ve dug deep inside Looking for the strength tonight Do you really think All of this will just pass with time Living in denial your life is a fever dream Still can’t see the forest for the trees I’m breathing deep And you’re passed out on the floor Laying in alcohol I can’t pick up the pieces Cause I’m over this and under slept Done with cleaning up your mess I’m breathing deep And you’re passed out on the floor Laying in alcohol I’m separating From your being

Cynical 01:56
A force of habit but you choose to ignore it All of these vices build the timeline to my life Every pattern Turned addiction Built into endless circles You’re so jaded I’m so cynical Frustrated Nothing changes Cynically insane People are talking I’m hearing things I shouldn’t hear Out of your mouth Just like a knife in the head I wanna disconnect Like a serpent with your tail in your mouth A taste for blood but pain intolerant Forever endless, you call it timeless Your definition Doesn’t make a difference Cynically insane People are talking I’m hearing things I shouldn’t hear Out of your mouth Now you’ve gone away People are wondering why I couldn’t stand when you were near I’m best without you here As if you think it made any different You’re so god damn jaded And I’m so cynical No more fucking patience Nothing ever changes

The Light 02:43
In a matter of seconds everything that you know changes I’m praying that you stay tonight And you know, I’ll find a way I’ll do it what it takes Because you’re everything Can you see all the light passing me by? I’ve wasted time but I’m making it back To show you I want to Find a way to fix everything But now permanence is lingering Guess were past the point of returning Can you see all the light passing me by I know its just life but You can’t just pass me by Leave me here I’m a wreck I just can’t say goodbye Sick and shaking from the thought Blood leaking through my finger tips I can’t let go Not after all we’ve been through I’m so sorry But its the hardest thing I’ll ever fucking do It’s not my life, it’s not your time Can you see all the light passing me by I know it’s just life but You can’t just pass me by Leave me here I’m a wreck I just can’t say goodbye Sick and shaking from the thought Blood leaking through my finger tips I can’t let go Not after all we’ve been through
