    War Paint

    I was starting to shake

    From the days Ive been up

    Theres a lot on my plate

    And the ones i loved stopped answering

    They left me to find my self

    In my own hate

    I work all alone with a cynical taste

    And the day I get out

    Is the day Ill be made

    I was cut out of stone

    And carved with a blade.

    Head down with all of my hardships

    Theres nothing too strong

    That I cant face

    Dont stop till you finally have it

    It should be more like a habit

    Come down

    All the fightings over

    I let you breathe your own air

    I will set my arms down in a corner

    When I turn around

    You will tell me how youre up now

    From your dream of clovers

    Said, not a thing will compare

    To the sense you give me, and disorder

    When you turn around

    And i cant breathe.

    There wasnt a trace

    Of the war letting up

    And the days went on late

    I struggled

    And i fell to solid ground

    It led me to my escape

    Now here i am outside of your gate

    I was hoping you could come down

    Well, i came to say sorry

    I shouldnt have left

    But my bitterness got to me

    Before you did

    And now im laying in gardens

    Where we start over again

    I know that you got me

    And this is it

    Work In Progress

    Tell them all that Im a work in progress

    Pour it out and I will stay out of the way

    Fill it up, for what its worth Im harmless

    Cut me down and I will live with what I take

    Im not saving you for myself

    I want to see you and I want to say

    Youre whats keeping me warm.

    Youre whats keeping me safe.

    Take my hands and keep the busy again

    I think Im losing my whole belief system

    I get a lot of problems in my head sometimes

    And i keep on forgetting

    So take my hands and keep them busy again

    Save me a place inside the quiet

    I know hate because i see it in everyone around

    And lately Ive been losing truth

    Faith, I have been losing too

    Take it out on all your constant losses

    Know its only just a miracle to face

    Even death can bring a man to life

    When he sits right up

    And still nothing tastes the same

    Good ings

    Im safe, and who ever thought that I was difficult

    My nerves start to feel so frayed

    Ill try to turn things around, but instead

    Ill say Why do I feel so invisible

    Good things will come my way.

    Ill try to turn things around, and I wait

    Till the day when I stop making big mistakes

    And the clouds, they roll out of this whole damn state

    I believe in a place that i want to go

    Honesty will leave me feeling liveable

    Once I change

    Now that Ive found some time, all the pain wont bother me

    Ive wanted to find why my head keeps filtering

    Irate, caught in the worst storm inside of me

    Words start to feel misplaced

    You can change what you want with your pen.

    I pray, as things start to feel much more possible

    This time, Ill know what to say

    You can live how you want in these days

    When the way that you talk makes up history

    Its important to know why you clench your teeth

    Ill flee to a place that I wanna go

    With a shift in a sound that is physical

    Know Ill change

    Now that Ive found some time, all the pain wont bother me

    Ive wanted to find why my head keeps filtering

    That hole in my life and how it stayed inside my limbs

    Must have been caught up in my skin

    Now Ive relied on that Ive changed

    Now that Ive found some time, all the pain wont bother me

    Ive wanted to find why my head keeps filtering

    That hole in my life, I just want it to die

    It must have stayed inside of my limbs

    Must have been caught up in my skin

    No Ones GonnaNeed You More

    I told you, Lifes not fair.

    At least we know why

    Its not an easy air to find

    I watched you sink right in

    A bottle of wine

    It mustve seemed like I could die

    And i was pining back

    Turned out all the lights

    And i could barely stand

    Coloring the lines in with my proper hand

    Lightly pushed away

    Ill hold that waiting hand for you

    And drown all the words out

    I couldnt make it past those eyes

    I think i feel like the wind

    Sometimes I wish wed try to begin

    No ones gonna need you more

    No ones gonna need you more

    Ive got mineMoving cross the country I lost

    Track of time

    Trying to make a name for myself

    Cause every lonely heart

    Can use an honest song

    They can sing along to

    Youre the home ive been dying to make

    And the gold that God didnt take

    Ill hold that waiting hand for you

    And drown all the words out

    Fine, I tried

    But falling back to sin

    Those nights you were keeping me in skin

    No ones gonna need you more

    No ones gonna need you more

    I hope you listen

    I need forgiveness

    We both can live with at all

    Either way I will reach you

    Either way I was wrong

    If not for this end

    Ill still be wishing

    I was right there with you and all

    Either way I am see through

    Either way Im not strong

    I was staring out

    To things I dont want to face

    I need back inside your veins

    Im dying out now

    Siren

    Well I lost the title

    Im gonna float away

    Sad to think Ill always understand

    Why you make friends with enemies

    You swore youll win the lottery

    I really hope it pays

    Everything you wanted with your mother

    Buy that place you always said you would

    Through the rain

    In the morning I see may

    The seasons starting over

    I dont mind waking up alone

    As long as youre okay

    I really lost a lot of things

    I can barely speak

    And Im hardly sober

    Taking memories

    And wiping that slate clean

    I was trying to get it out

    And somehow

    Right now Im still standing here

    Through the rain

    In the morning I see may

    The seasons starting over

    I dont mind waking up alone

    As long as you still feed that dream

    Of moving out to angels city

    No ones stopping you

    Nothings holding you back honestly

    Cause I still care

    Are you lying on your back

    Are you lying?

    Are you settling again

    Im not silent.

    Its not about the way we cut clean

    We both said a lot

    Even though we both may not speak

    Youre the song I wrote

    That Ill always love.

    And I will always know

    And I will never take our time

    For granted, honestly so

    And even when were grown

    Take everything we owned

    And try to put all the pictures

    Back inside your memory so

    I lost you

    Eveone Le

    Ive seen my words carved

    In the arms of a stranger as they let me know

    They watched their love die

    But picked it up later when they found that rope

    Some say you need to bleed to believe in hurt

    Some say you have to scare to belong to her

    Ill live alone and find my peace

    I will slip into a coma

    Found somewhere north of Florida

    But just south of Tennessee

    Cause the sun I finally reached it

    Give me reason to move on now

    But theres something in this heart I lost

    Somehow

    Ill set it down for you

    I wouldnt lie to you, now would I

    I built that road from the beginning with my hands

    When you decided to take it

    What did you take from it

    Was it worth the heart involved

    The obstacles

    The chemicals

    I need to know what youre trying to see

    Are they slipping though

    All those messages I sent

    I will cart across to every single city

    And their state

    When you hardly have a heart

    But you need it just to break

    When i havent let my guard down

    Just give my time to think

    Well does it start to murmur

    It just needs some time to breathe

    And in the light of murder

    What if carries me

    Just to find that water

    (I found the patterns release in me)

    Miscommunication

    Are you serious? She said

    I never should have let you in my head

    Who the hell do you think that you are?

    I see you climbing over innocent hearts.

    Ill say exactly what I feel;

    Im not impressed at all.

    You really want to know just what I think?

    Youre lost.

    Im tired of always being second best.

    Get out, and find that pseudo comfort

    Somewhere else.

    We fall to miscommunication

    And in that moment I might die

    Ill let you go; if you really mean it

    All this time, but you didnt know

    I felt misleaded in my mind

    Well take it slow

    Leave all the people to their

    Lives and find our home

    I was tearing at the threads

    That you are

    And it never seemed to get me

    Too far until now

    She said, Im tired of always

    Being second best,

    Since everything

    This year has been a mess.

    Half my familys gone for good

    So here I sit.

    I need a comfort in a

    Boy that takes my hits.

    Do you remember when we met

    We were alone?

    In the middle of the night

    Outside my home.

    We stayed up late just for the

    Start of something new.

    I cant believe your distance

    Left us.

    I Should LeaveRight Now

    You should know by now

    What i was doing all by myself

    The time has worn us out

    I have lost my wind

    Roll the windows down

    Find me some comfort

    Leave me alone

    The one at the bottom

    I see, theres nothing I wonder

    I look through the holes in us

    And I am kneeling distraught

    I will always feel theres something gone

    Im belittled but I find it wrong

    I saw breaking day and I

    Saw the current state of us

    I should leave right now

    No one is keeping me on this ground

    Move out to somewhere southWhere the weather is warm

    And I feel less doubt

    Maybe Im running

    From what I know

    Something is different

    I need a new place to wander

    Im leaving to grow for now

    Well I was dying to leave

    This place I know

    Traded it in for something

    I can relate to

    Ill find out who I really am

    It takes some time

    But maybe thats okay, yeah

    Trying to make my way

    Past hope

    Do what I can

    With everything that Ive been through

    Ill take my chances to live again

    Its all to move on

    To the seas if they will take you home

    Its a journey just to find your own

    It will take your hate

    When you find that place

    In My Room

    I ought to sink into places

    I find that I dont know

    Remember my old shoes

    Some spaces were made to be outgrown

    And if I fill up that table in my head

    I think Ill find all of the countless ways

    I could make up for lost time

    Made to be a better thing

    Picking up the parts

    Its a long long ways away

    But I used to be a little bit

    Hard to carry on

    I had to be out of the way

    But I still believe in everything

    Even in my flaws

    Theyre a problem I can take

    Tried to be a better thing

    But its taking me a lot

    Recovering all my strength

    In my room theres a storm

    That will calm when Im through

    Find my ways between lines that I drew

    These are my thoughts in a long form

    And I have the mindset to deconstruct you

    Filled with the clouds in my eyes that I knew

    I take the worst I can find and consume

    This is the dark but it feels warm

    And I try my best to see right through you

    I remember none of it

    Taking to my thoughts

    Its a solid Ill escape

    Stable for a little bit only to belong

    But belonging gets so fake

    Slip into another place

    Laying on the lawn

    Though this time feeling grey

    Tried to live a better way

    Tell me where Im from

    Settled in my daze

    Paachute

    Take the reigns again

    It was a pleasure to finally fall asleep

    Without a stir

    Out there with tons of burns

    I get a lost sensation

    Sent through my brain and hands

    I know I better escape that part of me

    Before I learn

    I cant stand the counter turn

    Its still a nerve I cant figure out

    I will wake up fine in a place I love

    By myself

    Yeah it took some time

    But at least Im clear out of hell

    I feel it coming on

    I parachute alone

    Im a life thats not worth saving

    Its apparent I wont slow down yet

    I take control of that feeling you dont care

    To believe in

    Im blind but Im still leading

    Im finding modern healing

    Is sold in the dark for some of us

    A strong sleep to sedatives

    I fear I firmly hide from it all now

    To quell the burn

    I wont take the sound I heard

    Im going to find my own way to drown

    I will wake up fine in a place I love

    By myself

    Yeah it took some time

    But at least Im clear out of hell

    Hold my hands out like Im star ting to break

    Im seeing now what Im doing to the people

    around me

    Im not supposed to care this much

    I ask myself; yeah who am I

    Well, to anything

    Have I lost my health

    I still harbor all my anger

    Ive been staring at the color in my veins

    How they stay

    How I still feel Im tired, but awake

    Somewhere out there

    There is someone thinking of what

    I havent gave them yet

    And feeling that I cant in my disarray

    Waves

    Take my time and move on

    From all of this

    Its all about the rolling waves

    You leave me cold

    Im wandering and positive

    So what if I dont want to wait

    Theyre not tying me off right now

    And though it doesnt make sense

    I lost all feeling inside my mouth

    And I cant handle my hands

    You cover the ground

    To everyone else it seems

    Like nothing is sound

    But tell you just how far

    Youll run

    So keep on looking up

    Youll find the courage to paint a world

    That burns like hell

    Not for allure, but mostly for yourself

    Cause you needed escape

    In a dark kind of way

    Its a sentiment youll never get used to

    And I dont want to hear it

    Ive seen soul

    In the nerves of every feeling you fought

    And maybe its enough to move us on

    From where we started off

    You cough up blood

    But stand up to anyone

    But never do it out of rage

    Just build your home

    And surround it with everyone

    Who always seem to feel your pain

    When Im finally at my doubts

    I take a look at my friends

    Dont make a ceiling inside your clouds

    Just let them grow with your plans

    And thats the way it ought to stay

    I see the side of things that wont show up

    Im not involved in that

    I see that art is making something loud

    When it is silent out

    I yell, cause this is in my head

    I dont need a writer to tell me how I breathe

    This is the war to end all wars
