Turn it up a little bit louder,
We're never going home again
Don't leave the front porch light on,
You know it's not needed
Been walking with the zombies for some time
Not ready to settle for that life
I'm taking back what's mine
No guidelines, these timelines are meaningless
Pulled the wool from my eyes
Before I couldn't see it
Been feeling like a ghost for some time
Not ready to feel dead inside
I'm taking back what's mine

Don't take yourself so seriously
"But it's a different game, How things have changed"
She says to me while staring at her phone
There's never been so much to see
Fueled by anxiety
But isn't that the way you want it?
But isn’t that the way that you want it?
So keep the stakes high in your mind
You gotta stay relevant before everyone forgets you
Oh how today's darlings become yesterday’s news
So much to see
Fueled by anxiety
She says we’re just strangers passing by
Orbiting like satellites
Looking to stay in the shine

So Predictable
03:24
|
|

Worn out, you do the same things
Late nights of scrolling through your phone
Cold sweat, intoxicated, your heart pounds, it's ready to explode
A storm's rolling in
I should've known better
Than to step outside without an umbrella
Worn out, you say the same things
"Poor me", it's all I seem to hear
Reaching out for something you don't want
It's so predictable
A storm's rolling in
I should've known better
Than to step outside without an umbrella
If the warning signs were any clearer
They'd show your name crossed out, whatever
Show me what I can't see
The writing’s on the wall
The pattern stays the same
Is there something I'm missing?
And tell me what I haven't heard
The writing’s on the wall
The pattern stays the same
Is there something I'm missing?

Highways
03:23
|
|

Wide awake, laughing nervously
This five hour ride feels more like seven weeks
But I'm not scared anymore
I've accepted defeat, moving forward has got to be easier than being here
It feels like I'm stuck in the middle slowly sinking down
But before we all drown
Our lungs will give out
And we'll turn to ghosts
Black skies become clear tonight
It's stop and go on this highway drive
We've got miles to go
Now eyes are forward, no looking back
I tell myself these things
The old me's in the past
You say I'm shifting gears to slow
At least these wheels are moving forward
But before we all drown
We've got miles to go
Still got miles to go

Like a Ghost
01:37
|
|
||
Maybe it’s the way
From the reasons that you gave to me
I just wanna say that I’m not buying it
Much like a ghost now
Contrived to search for something more
When there’s nothing left
Built these walls just to crumble
(Stress cracks in the foundation)
Built these walls just to crumble
(Come on let’s dance in the ruble)
I'm gonna do those things you never did
If I said the words you never meant
Would it make a difference?

So Permanent
04:03
|
|

Shut the door
You're letting out the warm air
Though there's no chance that we're coming back
Oh summer love tell me what you believe in
And I'll try to grasp these concepts to understand
Everything's so permanent
Was the distance so deceiving
You abandoned the reason why you came here in the first place
Fade like a ghost
This place is already haunted
Does it hurt to be honest? Tell the truth
But let's play the game
The one where it starts sinking
Is your heart still beating or did it fade away
Maybe this time's the last time you'll ever think about it
Maybe this time's the last time you'll ever have to think about it
Fade like a ghost
This place is haunted
More than you know
Let's be honest now
See I know these reasons change with the season and slip so far away

Last Call
02:08
|
|
||
Is it in my head?
Living afraid of death, doctors visits, and broken plans
I'd go through hell for you
Burning flowers in my hands
I know we're not the same
Is this my last call, last chance?
No fucking back-up plan this time
And if you want sincere, have a good night
Is this my last call, last chance?
No fucking back-up plan
And do you want sincere?
Is it in my head living afraid of this?
This is my last call, last chance,
No fucking back-up plan this time
And if you want sincere...

Light This Town
02:07
|
|
||
Waking up early, still running late
Turn the engine over, hope to see your face
And when I do will you be impressed with my smile?
Cause it's been a while since I've seen you around
And you've got a spark that could light this town
So light it up, show them something real
But you don't. Cause I know you're scared
Go it alone, it's time to face your fears
But you don't. What are you running from?
But you don't. Cause I know you're scared
Go it alone, it's time to face your fears
But you don't. What are you waiting for?
I hope you find what you're looking for
I hope you get what's yours

Sleeping In
03:13
|
|

Can't think about it for too long
Gotta move on,
Turn the sad songs down on the radio
Can't say I'll be here later, but you know just how to find me
Is it obvious that I'm losing myself?
Time to put these records on the shelf
And as the cars drive by
Cranking out the b-sides
Will you be saying it's all right?
Cause these days keep getting shorter and I can't help myself from sleeping in
These drinks keep getting stronger, strong enough they help me to forget
And if I said this year didn't bother me I'd be lying to myself again
And as the cars drive by
Cranking out the b-sides
Will you be saying it's all right?
Do you think it’s gonna be all right?
These days keep getting shorter and I can't help myself from sleeping in
These drinks keep getting stronger, strong enough they help me to forget
And if I said this year didn't bother me I'd be lying to myself again
