Resolutions
02:28

The aftermath still sinking in
The alcohol comes from my skin
What was my resolution again?
With these blackened eyes from such sleepless nights
But I still pretend things will work out in the end
So let's forget another wasted year has been and left
But I'm still dreaming now
Our leaders sit atop of their thrones
but we can't afford to stay in our homes
Now I know we are in this all alone
'Cause the liars face none of their mistakes
But we still pretend this will work out in the end
So let's forget another wasted year has been and left
But I'm still dreaming now
But now we feel there's nothing left
We're not the only ones
But you're the only one that left here
So let's forget another wasted year has been and left
But I'm still dreaming now
I'm still dreaming now..

Searching For An Exit
03:29
|

Maybe it's just a change in seasons
I kick through the leaves just to watch you leaving
But I'm not down, I'm not retreating
I'll dust myself off and forget this feeling
It's all the same and it keeps repeating
I sift through my mind just to find a reason
But I won't break, I'll keep believing
I'll empty this place and I'll start rebuilding
So where do I go next?
I keep searching for an exit
Or a way to forget this
To say it was all just meaningless
(I used to feel something but there's nothing left
Something went away and it can never come back)
It's getting harder to fall alseep
As everything falls away from me
I held a box with a diamond ring
For a day I will never see

Lights Out
04:00
|

Lights out now it's early morning
The light from the street shows the clock's at 4
I'm too drunk but can't forget this moment
There's nothing I need here anymore
If you stay I will make it worth your wait
But I pray I can drink this all away
Alarm rings now the day is calling
It just gets harder to leave the door
My eyes red but the same numb feeling
And none of this is what I asked for
If you stay I will make it worth your wait
But I pray I can drink this all away
I can barely open my eyes
but I'm still wondering why
I can't be alone tonight
So I go search for a sign
and I'll pretend that I'm fine
But I just can't clear my mind
I can't say that I will take the blame
I can't say that I will shake off all this doubt that I feel
I can't say that I will take the blame
I can't say that I won't change
If you stay I will make it worth your wait
But I pray I can drink this all away
(I can barely open my eyes, but I'm still wondering why
So I go search for a sign and I'll pretend that I'm fine)

In And Out Of Time
04:06
|
|||
Do you feel the stars shining through these clouded skies?
Do you feel a fire burning but you don't know why?
Instead we waste away in an unknown place
On the edge of town where we can find escape
The streets were cold and empty in the town that night
But we stayed outside drinking like it was mid July
We ran through the rain in a summer haze
We'd never feel this alive again
I keep telling myself that I'm gonna make it
Well let's face it, I'm just keeping my head above the water
And I ought to give it up
I keep telling myself that I'm gonna make it
No, lets face it, I'm barely hanging on
I feel my thoughts racing in and out of time
I'll take a shot of something just to clear my mind
Another time I'll say that this is my last
But I know I'm gonna stay until this feelings past
So I ply myself with medication and pretend
It's a bitter realisation that this has to end
I see your reflective eyes staring back at mine
They show I'm not a better man but I tried

One Day
03:47
|
|||
Don't leave here yet
I still can't accept
Don't leave until I am
There to hold onto your hand
Sat beside your bed
To recite all we've shared
I cherished it for one last time
To hear your voice here with mine
And you were always there to say
It'll be bright again one day
As you'd smile and say with pride
I will be always by your side
I walk to the door
To look back once more
Let me leave here alone
And wonder out into the cold
But I'll be home soon
I'll wait up for you
Forget the bright lights you'll see
Don't worry about me
