1. ELEVATED

Pulled aside as if I was the wrong one
You said it all and you made me the lost one
Elevated by your greatest mistake
Now I'm all alone

I bet you couldn't tell that i felt the same way
Struggling just to get to the next day
I'm not forced fed lies
While I'm by your side

[Pre-Chorus]
Shaking your head doesn't change this
I'm preparing myself for a trainwreck
I can't be saved

[Chorus]
So tell me why can't you see
This is where you need to be?
You know, it's taken it's toll on me
But I don't feel invisible
Tell me why can't you see
This is where you need to be?
You know it's taken it's toll on me
So I'll hope for a miracle
Yeah, I'll hope for a miracle

Holidays tend to make me feel whole again
Rainy days make me feel like the dream is dead
I can show you what it's like to be down when your all alone
I'm quite aligned to your design
What's mine is yours, and thats just fine
I'm finally acquiring the state of mind that everything is gonna be alright

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

And if you want to be free
I can't be the one to make you believe
You've still got this promise to keep
Step back and wash away the reckless intentions
They're leaving me breathless
Find a way to stay in your skin

Tell me why can't you see
This is where you need to be?
You know, it's taken it's toll on me
But I don't feel invisible

[Chorus]


2. DEADLY CONVERSATION

We're indifferent to this deadly conversation
I know, you know, we both know that it's...

I wonder if you think I'm still right there
When you make up your mind slower than the changing of the seasons
Wouldn't you know I've come to terms
That you wouldn't even care if I choked up and stopped my breathing

[Pre-Chorus]
This isn't something more than life
I hope my calendar breaks tonight
Before the morning comes

[Chorus]
I hope you know that-
We're indifferent to this deadly conversation
I know, you know, we both know, that it's wrong
To stay outside like ships in the night
I know, you know, we both know, that it's wrong
So carry on

I wonder if you think I'm wasting time
I bet you got it all figured out
But must we try to break the ice beneath this heart of mine
I was perfectly lonely
I want you to show me
How'd you ever change my mind
When I was the same kid

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

So don't ever say my name
When it comes to who keeps you sane
I know that you're already gone
Cause when reality sets in place
You'll be showing the world your second face
And we can carry on

[Chorus]

[Pre-Chorus]
Before the morning comes...


3. HARD TO PLEASE

You've got a plan inside a deep breath
But it always comes out the same
I never said there'd be a last chance
Looks like I'm leaving the fast lane
I've been told to find the finer things
But you know that won't make sense to me
You followed your past mistakes
Whether you bend or break
I still wait for you to cope

[Chorus]
You ignored the call cause you grew up
You'll be thinking all our memories have you hard to please now

Maybe I'm a bad person
Maybe I don't wanna walk before I crawl
It only matters if it's worth it
Does it even matter at all?
Maybe I'm a bad person
Maybe I don't wanna walk before I crawl
It only matters if it's worth it
I think I'm just afraid to fall

[Chorus]

[Chorus 2]
Take what's left
Make it your last request
I think it's obvious we'll both escape the selfishness before I'm gone

I'm turning pages in a place that I know
You've got your wages
But you've got nothing to show
I keep turning pages in a place that I know
It only matters if its worth it
I think I'm just afraid to fall

Maybe I'm a bad person
Maybe I don't wanna walk before I crawl
Only matters if it's worth it
So does it even matter at all?

[Chorus](x2)

(Take what's left, make it your last request)
Our memories have you hard to please now
(I think it's obvious we'll both escape the selfishness before I'm gone)
Our memories have you hard to please now

[Chorus 2]


4. PREPARE TO BE NOTICED

How'd you know that I would act this way?
Turn my back, you rebel, we stay the same
You make it easy to believe that I know
Who you are and why you're insecure
I'm not certain yet, but I'll make sure
This will all get through to you

[Chorus]
I could never resist, so prepare to be noticed
I hope that you know, inside I find it hard to rewind
No, I don't wanna walk alone

How'd you know that I could break this way?
I'm in town, it feels like we're miles away
I'm still searching, while you're learning
Who you are and why you're insecure
You're not certain yet, but I'll make sure
This will all get through to you

[Chorus]

(No, I don't wanna walk alone)

That's saying something; what I'd do for you when
We both have next to nothing (next to nothing)

I could never resist, so prepare to be noticed
I hope that you know, inside I find it hard to rewind
No, I don't, no, I don't, no, I don't

[Chorus]

No, I don't wanna walk alone

I could never resist
(That's saying something)
So prepare to be noticed
(What I'd do for you when)
I hope that you know
(Next to nothing)
Inside I find it hard to rewind
No, I don't wanna walk alone


5. OVER THE LINE

What's left to lose?
I painted all these pictures but you...

(Is this distance calling my name?
I think persistence
Is this price that we pay in the end)

I can try to survive in a world of common sense
But can I stand in line and wait just like the rest?
Pain loses so much weight when I leave the ground
The most that could be presented to me is here right now

[Pre-Chorus]
Over the line every goddamn time
And you're still waiting on me to let go

[Chorus]
What's left to lose?
I painted all these pictures
But you couldn't choose
All of your company
But is this distance calling my name?
I think persistence
Is this price that we pay in the end

Not a sound can be drowned
If you don't stop listening
To the ones who believe
They only like it if you foresee
I'm seeing red
And as a result my dreams were left unsaid
How could this happen to me when I'm

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

I'm looking past the ones who fell back in the race
Another day that I can tell the wasted space
I'm looking past the ones who fell back in the race
You can see it in my face, in my face

[Half-Chorus](x3)
What's left to lose?
I painted all these pictures
But you couldn't choose
All of your company

But is this distance calling my name?
I think persistence
Is this price that we pay in the end


6. SIMPLE EXISTENCE

I'm in a wasteland, but nevertheless
I can try to see this clearly
And I can say that
The day that we met
I just had to have you near me

[Pre-Chorus]
I fell asleep in a city that doesn't
Thought I was special but you know I wasn't
It's just hard to believe that I won't be
Held responsible, for the things that you now know

[Chorus]
I'm coming for you
I'm coming to make sure everything I heard is true
What's it like to be the one who waited
Long enough to see the day that I could feel again
I'm coming for you
I'm coming for you and your simple existence

Let's re-arrange this
When everything falls, I can't make out all the signals
But it's strange that
The distance is how we keep it so original

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Hearing all the words you kept inside your head
When the struggle came to construct these lies instead
No telling you where this will go
But as long as you know

You're responsible, for the things that you now know

[Chorus]


7. REMEDY

[Chorus]
We played through the seams
Called it a remedy
You can take care of me
But you know nothing about me

You started talking about how lately the weather compliments my mood
Cause when the sun doesn't shine
It rains in my mind
Like I've got nothing left to prove
Well, baby it's diffcult to call you out on being cynical
Maybe you're beautiful but that doesn't mean I'll stay amused

So I'm just saying

[Chorus]

I started thinking about your smile that you buried in my pillow
But the present disaster made you choke on your own laughter
And it's something I don't know
When did I do something wrong besides stay up way too late to write these songs?

So I'm just saying while your still waiting:

[Chorus](x2)

[Outro](x4)
I've got no time to make it seem like I've been trying
And I've got no time for staying true

[Chorus](x2)


8. NOTHING'S WRONG

Personally, I think I'd much prefer to stay
Between you and me, there's too much standing in the way
But you'll go on
Keeping everything in belief as you sip on something strong
Wishing you could make your own history

[Pre-Chorus]
All in all I'm doubting everything lately
So tell me what's it like to fly?

[Chorus]
Here's to something that you said would be nothing
Well I braced myself for this
(Only you could ever hold me back)
Here's to hoping you put thought in your judgement
Or this is how it ends. (This is how it ends)

January, I took the time to settle down
Between you and me, that stress comes crawling back
But you'll go on saying, "Can you sing to me?"
And pretend that nothing's wrong
We still know it's not how it used to be

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

And all this time we could be changing our ways to find out

[Bridge](x2)
We've been here before
Nothing ends up the same
We've been here before
The promises made fuel the game

[Chorus](x2)

This is how it ends


9. MIND BOTTLED

Slept the days away
When I was waiting and no one was around
To be interesting
And I tried to find a way
To follow footsteps away from my hometown
I wasn't listening

[Pre-Chorus]
My heart's beating so you know I'm alive
Don't hold back on your chance to decide

[Chorus]
Was it all worth it?
(I'll build the highest bridge only to burn it)
Was it all worth it?
(All the love you gave when I returned it)
Oh I returned it
You know I think about it now and then
I bet you thought that I would start it again

Counting down the days
Until we leave and move on to the next town
I'm in that state of mind
Where I bottle everything inside my head
And stare at the ground
But it's gonna be just fine because

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

I'm not afraid of what I'm worried, worried about
Can't stomach the thought of an endless doubt
I'm not afraid when I've got something left to give
So I want to know

Was it all worth it?
(I'll build the highest bridge only to burn it)
Was it all worth it?
(All the love you gave when I returned it)
Oh I returned it

[Chorus]

Start it again...


10. CRITICAL

I’ve always wanted what I can’t have
And I’ve been making it a note to feel what’s left to feel
And put my shoulder to the wheel
Everything about me used to have a mind of it’s own
I’ve got what’s left of me, some positivity
And no more waiting on a dial tone
(Because I’ve loved and lost a cause
And that’s enough to never let you forget me)

[Chorus]
We’ve been gone for too long to see this happen again
Then again, you’re too gone to say that’s not what you meant
You’re crying, I’m not trying
I won’t let this life get so critical

Remember the time you asked me to let go?
Where did you want me to begin?
Take a stand
You know you haven’t got what you came for
And recently, my counter seems to be the place to be at night
You were right, I must be wrong for wanting you to know
I let go of the old
And you don’t deserve to see where it leads me to be
And doesn’t that make you question why we were here in the first place?
We were here in the first place

[Chorus]

I’m like a boy lost in a city
Not wanting to be found
Everything is a sight to see until you come back around (You come back around)
I’m like a boy lost in a city
Not wanting to be found
Everything is a sight to see until you come back around

[Chorus]

You’re crying, I’m not trying
I won’t let this life get so critical


11. EASY ENOUGH

You've got me thinking about it
Don't know my way around it
Got me wishing I could say the things I don't
See, I was traveling; the mess that we were in
Could only make me wanna stay out on the road

But when the trust falls, missed phone calls
Long live the problem child
But I think I'll stay a while
Now I don't think I'll ever feel like this again
I'll never feel

[Chorus]
We're suspended in time
From the likes of you
But I'm willing to prove
You've got more fight left in you
We're suspended in time
From the likes of you
Yeah, it's true
So you can take it from me
I just wanna be more than a memory

(You’ve got me thinking about it
Don’t know my way around it.)
Impeccability is what you said to me
See, I was busy trying to figure out
What it is that you were talking about
Don't think I'll ever feel like this again
I'll never feel

[Chorus]

[Bridge](x4)
It's hard enough for me to say this
Easy enough when you're the faceless
It's impersonal
I just thought you should know

[Chorus]

[Bridge](x2)
