Can't we just stop time? It's been a long five years. And nothing feels real to me. I need this more than anything. It's haunting each moment and I know it's my purpose. I can feel their eyes on me. I'm searching so desperately. The air it gets stifling but it's my life that I'm fighting for. You can't take that away. Show me the past, present, and future. I'm at the end of all I know here. Traveling the world from state to state. Anywhere that I can go. So, how do we (how do we) focus the point? Make you look a little deeper than surface. Cause I won't (I won't) end up as a cliche. But go ahead and say no. Cmon give me your best shot. I see through the lies every time, not surprised. And it's so fucking overrated. Drop a new hit, you're all mad, send the hate in. Are you tuning in? Are you watching us now? Cause you haven't seen nothing. I've been burying bad luck again and again. Like you think I don't know where I came from? Cause there a whole line just waiting. Hoping for the fall. Watch this all fucking bury me. I hope you all know, I never forget and I won't let this go. But go ahead and say no. Cmon give me your best shot. I see through the lies every time, not surprised. And it's so fucking overrated. Drop a new hit, you're all mad, send the hate in. Are you tuning in? Are you watching us now? Cause you haven't seen nothing. No, you haven't seen nothing. I showed it all but, you missed the point. You'll feel it when you miss it and you know it's gonna hurt. (I have shown it all. You'll feel it when I'm gone.) But go ahead and say no. Cmon give me your best shot. I see through the lies every time, not surprised. And it's so fucking overrated. Drop a new hit, you're all mad, send the hate in. Are you tuning in? Are you watching us now? Cause you haven't seen nothing. No, you haven't seen nothing.

When did my friends become my enemies? When did I lose the feeling of sincerity? When did the things I hold so close change? I'm fading. I loathe the feeling like nothing else. No one around can understand how it feels to watch the sun rise and set, and to bite my tongue and live with the regret. And I've lost my feeling of purpose. Feel like an outcast, a pessimist. And I don't feel I deserve this. But it's the hole I've dug myself in. Tell me, yeah tell me. That I'm not losing the better part of me. Maybe, yeah maybe. This is worth it. (Is it worth it?) Just ignite the fire that once burned inside me. (I'm burning) Just ignite the fire. (I'm burning away.) I'm burning. I'm burning away. I can feel it in my bones. Bloody knuckles stain the truth cause the only one who knows are these four walls. Dead, alive, it's all the same. I need it fixed before it buries me. I've got a fucking problem. And it's time that I came clean. Tell me, yeah tell me. That I'm not losing the better part of me. Maybe, yeah maybe. This is worth it. (Is it worth it?) Just ignite the fire that once burned inside me. (I'm burning) Just ignite the fire. (I'm burning away.) I'm burning. I'm burning away. I'm bound by the choices that I've made. I'll die alone and that's the price that I'll pay. I need something. I need someone to tell me that, I'm worth something. Something more than what I've been. Tell me, yeah tell me. That I'm not losing the better part of me. Maybe, yeah maybe. This is worth it. (Is it worth it?) Just ignite the fire that once burned inside me. (I'm burning) Just ignite the fire. (I'm burning away.) I'm burning. I'm burning away.

Let's turn the page. It's funny watching how the time has changed so fast. I can't even remember. Crazy seeing all the friends you thought you had. I thought loyalty was forever? Time is moving way too fast for me and I know (I know). It's hard to see how much I've changed. With every year, with every day. And the respect I thought I had, so insincere. But that's all dead. I'll never be what you want from me. It's my choice and I'm gonna live my life. And I'll show just how wrong your words can be. And I know, I'm not good enough. All the words that they say, It's alright. But I won't ever let it hold me back. You'll stay where you are. Out of sight and out of mind. So go on, say your worst now. Live a lie, cause' it's all you got. And I won't ever let it hold me back. You'll stay where you are. Out of sight and out of mind. Crazy seeing how far we've came in such short time. It's all worth it. And all the pull you thought you had. With every line, it's all worthless. We don't need you. You can watch the line we're pushing. We don't need you. We'll prove ourselves and we own you nothing. I'll never be what you want from me. It's my choice and I'm gonna live my life. And I'll show just how wrong your words can be. And I know, I'm not good enough. All the words that they say, It's alright. But I won't ever let it hold me back. You'll stay where you are. Out of sight and out of mind. So go on, say your worst now. Live a lie, cause' it's all you got. And I won't ever let it hold me back. You'll stay where you are. Out of sight and out of mind. I won't let the world go and pass me by. I won't stop until you see my name in lights. I can promise, the world is ours. Nothing is stopping us. We made it this far. And I know, I'm not good enough. All the words that they say, It's alright. But I won't ever let it hold me back. You'll stay where you are. Out of sight and out of mind. So go on, say your worst now. Live a lie, cause' it's all you got. And I won't ever let it hold me back. You'll stay where you are. Out of sight and out of mind. Let's turn the page.

I've had it up to here with you. I'm really tired of spending everyday, Fighting for things that don't matter. And I deserve better and I can't let you stay. Baby, I'm over it. It feels great to know we're through so go ahead, Cry to your mom and your friends that I'm gone. And don't forget there's a place in hell for people like you. Make me believe it. Tell me the reason that you got here. You know you're caught cause you're shaking now. Screaming words I don't care about. And it's too late. (Too late) Too late to fix this mistake. And when it all comes down to it, I just don't give a shit. I've had it up to here with you. I'm really tired of spending everyday, Fighting for things that don't matter. And I deserve better and I can't let you stay. Baby, I'm over it. It feels great to know we're through so go ahead, Cry to your mom and your friends that I'm gone. And don't forget there's a place in hell for people like you. Woah, you think you got it bad? So tell me, what's the point chasing you? Cause you know, you know it's a lost cause. And it's too late. (Too late) Too late to fix this mistake. And when it all comes down to it, I just don't give a shit. I've had it up to here with you. I'm really tired of spending everyday, Fighting for things that don't matter. And I deserve better and I can't let you stay. Baby, I'm over it. It feels great to know we're through so go ahead, Cry to your mom and your friends that I'm gone. And don't forget there's a place in hell for people like you. And I can't wait another day. So tonight, I'm seeing red. Get your words out my head. You're okay, it's not right. I'll pick up the pieces and try to move on with my life. Tore down my walls, Gave you every part of me. I just hate the way you changed. I've had it up to here with you. I'm really tired of spending everyday, Fighting for things that don't matter. And I deserve better and I can't let you stay. Baby, I'm over it. It feels great to know we're through so go ahead, Cry to your mom and your friends that I'm gone. And don't forget there's a place in hell for people like you. I've had it up to here with you. I'm really tired of spending everyday, Telling you words that don't matter. Go find someone better. It should have never got this way. But baby, I'm over it. And now I don't care what you do so go ahead, Cry to your mom and your friends that I'm gone. And don't forget there's a place in hell for people like you.

And every word I spoke, has been written over and over. And every time I sing, I choke. All I needed was closure. And I gave you your dream. I got endless nights I screamed myself to sleep. I'm sorry, I did you wrong. Left your heart in pieces, now you're gone. To find something that I can never be. I know he'll give you what you want. I'm young and I'm reckless, but I always thought... I could give you give you everything. And I'm sorry. I'm sorry for being me. There's just no place like home. You're the ghost that's haunting these walls. I'm like a moth to the flame. Try to run, but I'm drawn in so close. And I don't want to sleep hating you. But, I know that's just what you do. So maybe I should too. I'm sorry, I did you wrong. Left your heart in pieces, now you're gone. To find something that I can never be. I know he'll give you what you want. I'm young and I'm reckless, but I always thought... I could give you give you everything. And I'm sorry. I'm sorry for being me. I'm afraid that I've lost my mind. Every step I take. Every word isn't enough this time. Carry on, do what you know is best. Find a way to let me fall apart tonight. I'm sorry, I did you wrong. Left your heart in pieces, now you're gone. To find something that I can never be. I know he'll give you what you want. I'm young and I'm reckless, but I always thought... I could give you give you everything. And I'm sorry. I'm sorry for being me.

So let's move on. Find a place to hide and stay gone. Don't twist my words like I'm wrong. (I'm not wrong) It's a little too late. So I'll keep my space from the void that you've made for so long. I've been thinking that you should probably stay the fuck out. Listen to you go on and on and on. It's just too much to take right now. So let's stay apart. A little space between us maybe I can start, To close that little space for you inside my heart. No more feeding off my worth to help yours. So let's move on. Find a place to hide and stay gone. Don't twist my words like I'm wrong. (I'm not wrong) It's a little too late. So I'll keep my space from the void that you've made for so long. Step back. Don't want your burdens on my shoulders. One more word and you know it's all fucking over. And I hate that I let it ever get the best of me. I'll set the pace. Maybe I can get better. I think you better leave. So let's move on. Find a place to hide and stay gone. Don't twist my words like I'm wrong. (I'm not wrong) It's a little too late. So I'll keep my space from the void that you've made for so long. How you think that I've been lately when you'll say anything? Cause' I'm sick and tired of chasing you and all your problems. I'm left with the weight to hold up. I'm left with the weight to hold, and I need to let this go. So let's move on. Find a place to hide and stay gone. Don't twist my words like I'm wrong. (I'm not wrong) It's a little too late. So I'll keep my space from the void that you've made for so long. Let's move on. Don't twist me like I'm wrong. It's a little too late. So I'll keep my space from the void that you've made for so long.

All against me, you're all against me. I feel you all against me, you're all against me. And I can see it clear. Oh, it's every word, it's every line. All against me, you're all against me. And I fear, the truth is so much more than I can bear. All against me, you're all against me. Wait, just wait. Haunted by the lips that I believed loved me. Stay away, please stay away. I just can't breathe. I can't breathe. My only bit of company has been misery. And when does it end? Sinking, and I'm sinking and I'm... Feeling so exposed. Spill my blood and out come the wolves. Sinking, and I'm sinking and I'm... Feeling so exposed. Played me a fool to an old wound. My head, it spins. Let go. Why'd you take more than you had to? You're sick! You're sick! Let go. And when does it end?' Wait, just wait. Haunted by the lips that I believed loved me. Stay away, please stay away. I just can't breathe. I can't breathe. My only bit of company has been misery. What? Was giving all of me just not good enough? No heart. And I'm gone forever. All against me. I feel you all against me. Wait, just wait. Haunted by the lips that I believed loved me. Stay away, please stay away. Wait, just wait. Haunted by the lips that I believed loved me. Stay away, please stay away. I just can't breathe. I can't breathe. My only bit of company has been misery. Wait, just wait. Haunted by the lips that I believed loved me. Tell me that you won't go and that you'll stay. Just stay. My only bit of company has been misery. Sinking, and I'm sinking and I'm... Feeling so exposed.

Start this off honestly with every word, And tell you how much I hate all this. Every good thing I've ever had, I've pushed away. What is this hell? Where am I going? Who am I now? I'm haunted every second by this town. Everywhere your eyes follow and nothing helps. Is this what it feels like to have nothing at all? And I will make it out of here. Say goodbye to haunting eyes. Share my story state to state. And smile at every mile sign. And how can I call this home? When there's nothing that keeps me here. Live my life day by day. Never looking back at all I fear. This isn't home. Home is a place that I have never known. That's why I write all these sad songs you can sing to. Because they are what help me cope. Here's a cheers to the people we are. And everything that we can be. Here's a fuck you to my past. And all the hurt that you brought me. This isn't home. And I will make it out of here. Say goodbye to haunting eyes. Share my story state to state. And smile at every mile sign. And how can I call this home? When there's nothing that keeps me here. Live my life day by day. Never looking back at all I fear. This isn't home. I'm on the run. Away for my life. I'm not strong enough to do this but you know that I'll try. I can't make you understand. The roads are calling, I've been here long enough. Put my heart into things I want with no suck luck. So, I'm running for my life. And I will make it out of here. Say goodbye to haunting eyes. Share my story state to state. And smile at every mile sign. And how can I call this home? When there's nothing that keeps me here. Live my life day by day. Never looking back at all I fear. This isn't home.

I want you to tell me how you’ve been. I want you to say we’ll be just fine. I want to see those Maryland eyes fall in love with me. For just one last time. And if it’s space you need from me. I’ll do what it take to make you happy. Do what you need to. So you can find your way back home to me. Where did I go wrong? Apologies only go so far tonight. Wherever you are, I hope this finds you. When did this all fall apart? Why can’t I say something to make you change your mind? Cause’ we’re running out of time. And oh I, I’ve tried. To keep you out of my mind. I’m wrong, and you’re right. So, lets set it off tonight. I want you to tell me how you’ve been. I want you to say we’ll be just fine. I want to see those Maryland eyes fall in love with me. For just one last time. And if it’s space you need from me. I’ll do what it take to make you happy. Do what you need to. So you can find your way back home to me. I’m a fool with regrets. That I wish I could take back now. It doesn’t make any sense. To push away the things I love cause’ I hated myself. Oh I, I’ve tried. To keep you out of my mind. I’m wrong, and you’re right. So, lets set it off tonight. I want you to tell me how you’ve been. I want you to say we’ll be just fine. I want to see those Maryland eyes fall in love with me. For just one last time. And if it’s space you need from me. I’ll do what it take to make you happy. Do what you need to. So you can find your way back home to me. Where is the fire? The fire in our hearts that faded away. Tell me, where’s the desire? Desire to change your ways and to make you stay. Where is the passion? Because all i feel tonight alone. Baby, how did this happen? To give up on everything that we called our home. I want you to tell me how you’ve been. I want you to say we’ll be just fine. I want to see those Maryland eyes fall in love with me. For just one last time. And if it’s space you need from me. I’ll do what it take to make you happy. Do what you need to. So you can find your way back home to me.

I've lost the only part of me I ever felt was really honest. I'm lacking purpose. So tense, so full of doubt. Yet I know, it's finding its way out of my heart and to the surface. You are the only one that I let get under my skin. Cause' to feel you at all is better than feeling nothing. And I'm terrified that I just lost everything in the past few years, That has kept me breathing. I just want the person that you promised me. Now I'm stuck in the middle of hate and envy. Caused by the two hands that made me whole. Now I can't get enough. You are the only one that I let get under my skin. Cause' to feel you at all is better than feeling nothing. And I'm terrified that I just lost everything in the past few years, That has kept me breathing. Woah. Writing over and over, again and again. It's always the same end. Maybe I was never enough? Fought my way to shore. Cast back out just like before. Empty spaces remain wide open. You don't get it, no, you don't get it. I've hit, trust me, I've hid it. You are the only one that I let get under my skin. Cause' to feel you at all is better than feeling nothing. And I'm terrified that I just lost everything in the past few years, That has kept me breathing. Woah. Writing over and over, again and again. It's always the same end.

This is it. This is the moment where everything, Feels like slow motion. So tell me again, that it's all gonna be okay. And every venue in every state. Every memory along the way. I'll never forget so please don't forget about me. I'm trying to write these songs but my words just aren't enough. It all went so fast and now it's gone. We're saying thank you and goodbye. Said hello, now goodnight. All we have are these photographs and memories of good times. So thank you and goodbye, As we're signing off tonight. We all fought for this, but we're running out of time. So thank you and goodbye. And I'm not ready for the ending. The heart and time that I've invested. I've got two worlds and they're pulling me apart. I've gotta believe that the best is on the horizon waiting. Yet it seems like I'm just so far away from the start. I'm trying to write these songs but my words just aren't enough. It all went so fast and now it's gone. We're saying thank you and goodbye. Said hello, now goodnight. All we have are these photographs and memories of good times. So thank you and goodbye, As we're signing off tonight. We all fought for this, but we're running out of time. So thank you and goodbye. And there's no poetic words for the loss I feel inside of me. I just have to accept failure. I just haven't found my way there. In and out again, have I lost hope? I just have to accept failure. I just haven't found my way there. No not yet. Please, not yet. We're saying thank you and goodbye. Said hello, now goodnight. All we have are these photographs and memories of good times. So thank you and goodbye, As we're signing off tonight. We all fought for this, but we're running out of time. So thank you and goodbye.

There's a story to be told here. Don't ignore a word I say. Here's to the end my friend. You're now an obstacle in my way. I can finally breathe. As the ink's pouring out and my stories been told. See this through my eyes. Because I see all you do. The ammunition runs through me with every beat of my chest. Get your story straight. Tonight, I've shown my truth. Now can you? Go. You're a pawn in a king's game. And I promise you won't keep up. You've burned every bridge. Now it's all in your way. I see the fear in your eyes. Talk to me like you're tall, When you're two steps away from demise. When will you learn from your childish actions? You'll fall. There's a story to be told here. Don't ignore a word I say. Here's to the end my friend. You're now an obstacle in my way. You won't ever surpass me I'm stronger than you. You're a pawn in a king's game. And I promise you won't keep up. You've burned every bridge. Now it's all in your way. You've ran your mouth so long, it's come to this. Bounce. And I promise you won't keep up. You've burned every bridge. Now it's all in your way.

This is the end. This is the only truth. I feel I've lost my way. I've been going back and forth again. Makes me sick. Makes me hate him. Back and forth again. I won't bow to a coward king. I've been playing the fool for far too long. I'm a lost cause, maybe I'm too far gone. I don't care what they say to me. No it's not okay, no, I'm not okay. And I hate it. I can't fake it. I needed love and you know you had your chance. So I'll draw the line. I'll draw the fucking line. With every beat, my heart grows alone. Empty shell, built with blood and bone. I'm a hateful breed. Can't stand the way that you made me. And I will never know. I'm my own heaven and hell. And I don't want your love anymore. I've been playing the fool for far too long. I'm a lost cause, maybe I'm too far gone. I don't care what they say to me. No it's not okay, no, I'm not okay. And I hate it. I can't fake it. I needed love and you know you had your chance. So I'll draw the line. I'll draw the fucking line. Help those who need the help. I don't want to hate this way. The only faith I need is the faith in myself. I'm not blind to this hollow love. This is the end. There's always a price to pay. This is the end. This is the only truth. I feel I've lost my way. I've been playing the fool for far too long. I'm a lost cause, maybe I'm too far gone. I don't care what they say to me. No it's not okay, no, I'm not okay. And I hate it. I can't fake it. I needed love and you know you had your chance. So I'll draw the line. Tear it down. I'm the great mistake. And I don't want your love anymore.
