1.
It’s all in the past We both had regrets Some I still have I can’t find comfort In what I lack I said I’d try To be what you want You said I could Never be enough But I’m still alone With no comfort in What I've become So I’m skipping stones Made from old homes And broken bones Of the friends that haunt The smoke in my clothes I watched the flame flicker and fade away And then I knew I’d do the same I'm holding to What I’ll never be Two years too many Of being nothing So here’s to the past The laughs we had I’d give it all back If I had the chance We both can't be happy It’s either you or me
2.
Street talk and all the situations that make me feel awkward And the words that I can't stand I'll try to shuffle out of every conversation I don't want to talk about your cats or feelings of depression Cause its easy to say I’m feeling fine I just sleep to much and don’t eat enough And I feel like jumping from a cliff But that’s too long of a drive So I'll just stay in bed passing the time Thinking back to a lost kid Box haired, socially impaired Scared to death of a world Outside of his four walls And these blind eyes still see Through broken lenses But he can't feel a thing And its all closing in Nothing makes sense in a world so greed driven I'm trying to see over the hill But it's more oncoming traffic Brought on by panic And I'm fucked
3.
I was the mountains You were the sea I parted the waves But you dried up and left me So I am crumbling Full of regret Stuck with the hole That you left in my chest I am weathered Down to my core And what’s more I’m feeling hopeless I begged the sky To bring the rain Soon to be rust I will decay
4.
I pretend that being ok Is hiding your problems in a bed Where I get no sleep I’m mirroring the bad things That became apart of who I am And I was stagnant long before I stopped feeling a thing So I let go I stopped looking for hope In the cracks on the wall Where I told the world goodbye I’m pushing off into the distance In the fog where I hope the waves will crash And tear me apart like you did So I sank I could never swim And it shows in the depths Where I’ve been alone Because depression got a hold And it doesn’t let go without Taking what you love most It’s my head and the thoughts I can’t control Hating myself has become my home I got lost somewhere along the way And I don’t want to be found Just let me dig my own grave
