Black & Blue 02:45
Sending out a message.. S.O.S Heading down below Been running my whole life Now it's time to fight There's only one way I know Knock me down again Kick me in the head Beat me Black & Blue I've got my friends to see me through One left in the chamber, you're fucking dead I've got nowhere left to turn So I'll just turn away and live to fight another day This message is tried and true and if you've got my back I'll be there for you Knock me down again Kick me in the head Beat me Black & Blue I've got my friends to see me through One left in the chamber, you're fucking dead

Getting By 03:03
We had the best times We had the worst Those were the days we thought we'd rule the universe We'd sing our favorite tunes We'd drink till we ran dry We're brothers till the very end until the die we die We were young We were dumb We had the world in front of us We played our drinking songs and our sing alongs about never growing up Years passed by They flew out the door We can't drink as much as we used to anymore Now we sing this song and the message that we'll send is growing up ain't that hard, as long as you've got friends We are young We are dumb The world is still in front of us The same old drinking songs and the sing alongs about never growing up

Lock Me Away 01:27
Not sure what is real anymore If I can't even keep my feet on the floor It's all inside my head I was as worn out as a photograph Stick me in the attic and don't look back It's better left unsaid I'm the best kept secret, keep it to yourself Seal me up and put me back on the shelf I can't wait till I expire Sanity hung me out on a wire Don't expect me around anymore This is the end that I was asking for Lock me away When I rue in the night My confidence turns to spite It's all inside my head This is very familiar, my gold has turned to silver and it's better left unsaid I'm the best kept secret, keep it to yourself Seal me up and put me back on the shelf I can't wait till expire Sanity hung me out on a wire Don't expect me around anymore This is the end that I was begging for Lock me away.

The past is plagued with memories full of regret So much time is spent just trying to forget Where we went wrong We're always battling the ghosts of yesterday They'll be there to see your fall from grace You may think you can escape but they'll haunt you till you're in your grave But I won't lay down for the ghosts of yesterday. Mistakes we made are catching up to us real fast Even if we try we know we can't change the past Where'd we go wrong? We're always battling the ghosts of yesterday They'll be there to see your fall from grace You may think you can escape but they'll haunt you till you're in your grave But I won't lay down for the ghosts of yesterday

Scars 02:56
I'll never fucking learn Old habits they die hard I've got so many stories left to tell with these old scars What does it matter? I'm giving up the fight Cause I'm still haunted by the ghosts that keep me up at night I've never been so lost Broken back I'm broken down Cause I can't find no meaning in this fucking toxic town Came to look for answers but I'm going home confused Just another useless boy, who's been beaten down and abused I should have known all along You were never gonna hear my song I look in the mirror Moments pass me by The man that I once knew has gone away tonight But I'll always be that angry kid I was when I was young Cause I'm still the one A song came on the radio reminded me of you Changed the channel tried to cope but I hope you're thinking of me too I calm my nerves with alcohol With whiskey or with beer And I think about the road that brought us here Now I'm left to wonder Where did we end up? We ran around in circles trying to make it to the top Sure as the sun will rise and set Where are my friends that know me best? I might not belong, but I'll carry on I know I'll carry on I look in the mirror Moments pass me by The man that I once knew has gone away tonight But I'll always be that angry kid I was when I was young Cause I'm still the one

I wasn't listening to what you said I was busy living in my head More compelling where and when I intend because FUCK THE FUTURE I was too busy laughing in your face You didn't see it , it's written out and traced Only two people ever leave this place Freaks and losers If you didn't get the joke And it can't be explained How can anybody live that way? I don't believe that you got it figured out If you're jaded there will always be some doubt Yeah, you're jaded, you'll never quite figure out it's now or never Things are never what they seem Got to look at the lines and in between But it's tearing me apart at the seams This won't last forever If you made it this far then go back the way you came The joke is that it's all a game Cross out my number I was never here Just a spot in a place Just in case meant to disappear

Losing It 02:19
24 hours 7 different thoughts asking who I am and why There's plenty of time, but I'm losing my head and it's my excuse for life There's always loss There's always compromise I think I've figured out why If everyone's out to get you you're losing it When you're worlds caving in around you're losing it But we're all together and we've lost it all A call came on the telephone I'm amazed I'm not alone The only place I think I'd like to go is downtown or to a show There's always loss There's always compromise I think I've figured out why If everyone's out to get you you're losing it When you're worlds caving in around you're losing it But we're all together and we've lost it all

Do you remember what you did last night when the well went high and dry? Too young to stand up to drunk to get up left screaming at the sky Same old story chasing down the glory There's more to give in letting go If you never take a drink than you're never gonna know Do you remember what you did last night when you were drowning in a dream? No one there to pull you out it's exactly as it seems Same old story chasing down the glory There's more to give in letting go If you never take a drink than you're never gonna know It's not what you think but it's all that you know. I don't wanna live in world so cold It's not what you think but it's all that you know The bottles getting high and I'm getting low Same old story chasing down the glory There's more to give in letting go If you never take a drink than you're never gonna know

My patience is wearing thin and I can't take anymore Of your never ending need, to be seen and to be heard You talk too much and you feed your ego You think you're some kind of fucking hero You undermine every goddamned thing I say That's not my definition of being a friend Let's put an end to your passive aggression It's time to show your cards Cause I don't have the strength I need to be guessing What it is that tore us apart All those little digs that you throw in They always seem to find their way under my skin You talk too much and you feed your ego You think you're some kind of fucking hero You undermine every goddamned thing I say That's not my definition of being a friend Let's put an end to your passive aggression It's time to show your cards Cause I don't have the strength I need to be guessing What it is that tore us apart Let's put an end to your passive aggression

Here lies my self esteem Sent into the ground by my apathy Never said I learned my lesson No regrets! No confessions! Truth be told I never was one to care I couldn't tell you why everyone was there What mattered most didn't matter at all you're looking down I'm waiting to fall It's all absurd and unbelievable But I want you all to laugh Take what they give you and throw it back Here lies my self esteem Sent into the ground by my apathy Never said I learned my lesson No regrets! No confessions! Of course I'm old and it's harder to create With one foot in the past one in a sorry state I'm still believin in a life worth livin where we laugh and we sing and we can't stop grinning because anyone bitter never worked for minimum wage and anyone if bitter never works for minimum wage they were forced to act their age But I want you all to laugh Take what they give you and throw it back Here lies my self esteem Sent into the ground by my apathy Never said I learned my lesson No regrets! No confessions! Every last part of me is expendable That's what you get when standing in a Loser's Circle What do you recommend when you gotta go through a lot of shit before you reach the end

Wasted weekends were all that we had Hanging out in empty parking lots Having nights that never end Seems we're doing all the same shit that's been done before Chasing teenage fantasies became such a fucking bore But we didn't know that there was so much more to life We were young and angry, full of rage and full of spite It's cause we're stuck inside this shitty place where we can't get things done right Fuck this, cause our paths aren't set in stone This small town, just ain't big enough You gotta get out while you can before you're stuck Cause we'll be dead right where we stand Trapped in the hell that is this small town wasteland Another weekend has come and it has gone We're still searching for a purpose, trying to find where we belong But I know if we keep looking for a better place to go We'll finally find all the answers, that we've been looking for If we stay too long we'll sure as hell be left behind to spend the rest of our days slowly losing what's left of our mind If we tread these waters carefully, we're gonna make it out alive Well fuck this, let's pack our things and go This small town, just ain't big enough You gotta get out while you can before you're stuck Cause we'll be dead right where we stand Trapped in the hell that is this small town wasteland

I've got an anger deep within Don't know if I'll sink or swim I'm always standing in the Loser's Circle cause I know I'll never win No matter how hard I try, I'm never gonna win this fight There's no sense in moving forward, I'm a loser till I die Cause I'm falling faster everyday All these insufficiencies that plague my brain won't go away I'm trying to understand the ins and outs of all these thoughts inside and what they're all about. Gotta get this off my chest or I'll never get no rest I'm still waiting in the Loser's Circle and I'm cleaning up your mess I can't stay here anymore See me walking through that door I'm down but I'm not out, I've lost the battle not the war Cause I'm falling faster everyday All these insufficiencies that plague my brain won't go away I'm trying to understand the ins and outs of all these thoughts inside and what they're all about.
