All alone and your floating through the days and you're not quite sure which way to go Years go by and you try to do what's best for you but the cards just don't line up Take your time with the love you had in mind but you feel afraid that you'll mess up I guess I'll be the scapegoat Catching all, a thousand tiny cuts Pain and solace, I feel it on the inside Catching all, a thousand tiny cuts Don't freeze up, it's ok to be into the deep end We'll never know, the sun doesn't shine till it wants to We're all losing, by a foot or a yard or a hundred miles You hate to swim and it's hard to admit when you're drowning You got the job but you don't know what it means to you when you're walking out the door Lets be real if you'll ever get the chance to be who you are inside your head, before you're dead I guess I'll be the scapegoat Catching all, a thousand tiny cuts Pain and solace, I feel it on the inside Catching all, a thousand tiny cuts Don't freeze up, it's ok to be into the deep end We'll never know, the sun doesn't shine till it wants to We're all losing, by a foot or a yard or a hundred miles You hate to swim and it's hard to admit when you're drowning Before you're dead Before you're dead Before you're dead

I saw that stare, I feel it in those eyes Taking all my lust, never looking back Deep inside is where I want to be You're always on my mind I'm addicted to your love Fell deep and in love with your body and your soul I can't believe how much I love you Your lips that stare, they make me wanna kiss you I can't believe how much I love you I'll keep you on my mind And I'll be watching you I want you in my arms all the time until the end And I'll keep you on my mind And I'll be watching you I want you in my arms all the time until the end You are the one that stole my heart I never want this to stop, you're beautiful Please take my hand you'll be the one And I'll always be there for you, you're beautiful Fell deep and in love with your body and your soul I can't believe how much I love you Your lips that stare, they make me wanna kiss you I can't believe how much I love you Fell deep and in love with your body and your soul I can't believe how much I love you Your lips that stare, I'm addicted to your love

We had such a beautiful day Underneath the evergreens Puffy clouds and the slightest breeze Holding tight on these memories You poured the wine and I picked the tune Spread the blanket out then I kissed you We laid for hours, forgot about the time Oh here's to better days, oh here's to better days Sittin' down in our cloud of smoke Checking up on my fishing line We cast our love right into the lake And everything is doin' fine You poured the wine and I picked the tune Spread the blanket out then I kissed you We laid for hours, forgot about the time Oh here's to better days, oh here's to better days It's times like these where we all feel alive And forget the darker days where we're just trying to survive

Scarecrow 03:21
There's someone in my head that I can't describe No one knows about it, it makes me wanna cry In the mirror there's a costume over me I'm afraid to die but nothing's better than sleep Paint the windows black All the shadows fall I'm embarrassed of what my life's become The scarecrow stands in front of me A living puppet with all its strings It lives to eat all of me This reoccurs when I dream Every now and then I need a rainy day Makes me appreciate the light we all crave Paint the windows black All the shadows fall I'm embarrassed of what my life's become The scarecrow stands in front of me A living puppet with all its strings It lives to eat all of me This reoccurs when I dream Put me on reset I think I'm out of my mind Put me on reset I think I'm losing my mind The scarecrow stands in front of me A living puppet with all its strings It lives to eat all of me This reoccurs when I dream When I dream

Catatonic 05:17
Check the tombstone for the name Everyone ends up the same Take for granted what we have until it all comes crashing down I'm as guilty as you all We're born to rise until we fall Summer's over once again and now we feel the cycle spin I'm not worried bout tomorrow It's within the coming weeks Tidal waves with raw emotion make you weep beneath the sheets The ones we lost are never gone I'd like to think they are ahead But the answer lies in days to come for you my friend Time felt longer when we were young My eyes saw you're just a dream We live our lives inside our heads with no one else that sees Feel the cycle turn and spin We all just find our ways within Remember the ones we lost who mean everything And I don't if I am right Everyone puts up a fight Something tells me that I'm here for you if you would like to talk It's hard to comprehend the way We're not prepared for the big day All I know is we all go through the same mistakes Time felt longer when we were young My eyes saw you're just a dream We live our lives inside our heads with no one else that sees Feel the cycle turn and spin We all just find our ways within Remember the ones we lost who mean everything

The Patient 03:45
And on the day, we are born, will our lives have significance? Days are feeling very short, not enough time to dwell on it And in this prison cell of mine, the walls keep on growing in See my reflection in the glass, a face that's unsure of it all A face that's unsure of it all In the morning I feel alive, where nothing is stopping me And then the panic begins to rage, can't do nothin' about it And have a drink, feel the burn, my body is settling The greatest part of this routine, I'm starting to feel like myself The doctor said I'll be ok The patient doesn't have a say The doctor said I'll be ok My time is here now, I spend half of it just here on the ground The darkest shadows are the ones in our head who take over the crown There are no heroes who help me out when you come around I think you're the devil who lives under my bed and makes sure when I'm found The doctor said it'll be ok The doctor said

Run 03:21
You hide from those who know your face We cannot deal with you To say goodbye is all you know The end is here to come Run, they all know your fear And we'll cast this stone I'm in the clouds of emotion You see a red balloon, it's over there Let’s celebrate the day We're all a part of one big make believe There is no great escape Run, they all know your fear And we'll cast this stone I'm in the clouds of emotion We all fall apart, come back restart
8.
I cannot turn around she said I feel you in my heart you're on Searching for the best of me We take on all the truth, I'm coming for you Will we end up falling all apart? Do you feel your heart on mine? We hide from what we don't know
9.
You're so wonderful, you're like a sunbeam You're so beautiful, like the open sea You're so complicated, like a daydream I think I love you, become a part of me In the silence, I'm ashamed don't you know? In your shadow, there's no way I belong I'm so tired of myself I don't know if I'm ready to receive all of you You're so magical, you're like a castle You're so musical, like a symphony You're so independent, like an eagle I know I love you, please come and save me In the silence I'm ashamed don't you know? In your shadow there's no way I belong I'm so tired of myself I don't know if I'm ready to receive all of you

Brothers 05:10
As I take this road of faith, I wonder what comes next No destination up ahead, the bravest spirit learned I'm losing it, the clocks don't wait around and the candle wax is running low Our safest routines will never give us sunlight I feel at ease Something in me say's we're hanging onto nothing A fantasy seems like a broken-down dream All we're after is a land that's more superior To build a palace far away from home In the deepest tunnels of our mind I believe we will illuminate just fine It's in my veins, I feel it My eyes light up, I'm coming for you It never stops, there's pressure in my bones with no excuse Something in me say's we're hanging onto nothing A fantasy seems like a broken-down dream All we're after is a land that's more superior To build a palace far away from home In the deepest tunnels of our mind I believe we will illuminate just fine And lately I've been by myself and keeping covered When my life begins to shine, I'll be with my brother's Never hold back, in the darkness see the light And one day we will see the crowds all come together Everyone get on your feet and help each other Let's be grateful we have a chance to live a life
