Prism 03:12
Another chance to rid my mind of all the things I can’t escape You’d think I would’ve gone and lost it all by now But the truth is I’ve grown accustomed to this life of hell For years I’ve spent knowing only to hate myself I’m afraid to get better because I don’t know how Another chance to rid my mind of all the things I can’t escape Spending day after day hoping that the world will bring change But I’ve spent the past few years in this hole If I want to get better, I’ve got to do it on my own All alone As I drown in apathy I try not to break from the anxiety I’d let death have me but I’m just not ready For years I’ve spent wanting it to end But there’s just so much of this life that I’ve yet to live So sick of this misery All I want is to be happy Hello to uncertainty Give me a chance to break free Another chance to rid my mind of all the things I can’t escape Spending day after day hoping that the world will bring change But I’ve spent the past few years in this hole I want to be better, I want to be better I want to be something more I want to be more

Failure 03:30
Constant waves of never ending grief I do my best to live while gritting my teeth Is this all there is? A life wanting nothing more than successfulness And I'm done Trying to please all of those around me It’s the bad that seems to always find me Held down by a life that seems so rough And I’m done Pushing myself for the sake of others Regardless if I'm their son, friend or lover To them, I'll never be good enough Constant disappointment If they only knew how hard it is To wake up and wish you didn’t I don’t care what the future holds I swear if this goes on for another year I won’t be able to stop it And I'm done Trying to please all of those around me It’s the bad that seems to always find me Held down by a life that seems so rough And I’m done Pushing myself for the sake of others Regardless if I'm their son, friend or lover To them, I'll never be good enough Constant disappointment Always seeking affirmation Void of hope A waste of space No need for hesitation Get in the car Pull the wheel Let the world take reclamation A failure in the eyes of everyone I know I do my best to try but that’s all that’s expected of me I won’t be the one to make you proud But I swear I’ll do whatever it takes to be happy Constant disappointment And I'm done Trying to please all of those around me It’s the bad that seems to always find me Held down by a life that seems so rough And I’m done Pushing myself for the sake of others Regardless if I'm their son, friend or lover To them, I'll never be good enough Hope for a better life or pray for it to end I’ve always wanted nothing more then to live a life content (I don’t wanna be a failure) Escape those wasted years and make sure that this one counts Cause the truth of it all is I’m finding it’s hard im breaking myself apart

Nothing 03:41
I am nothing And that’s all I’ll ever be I’ve spent most days Feeling like I could’ve spent them better We’re not promised today And that’s something I’ll always remember No time to waste Because times the only thing that never stops It’s sad to say I’ve wasted so much with that in my thoughts Within my thoughts I am nothing And that’s all I’ll ever be Believe that it gets better At least that’s what I tell myself To keep me from losing my fucking mind I hate this feeling of always being miserable But I’m fucking miserable You see the reason why I want so much more then what’s expected Is because life is so much more then the value of your successes I’d rather end it all right here and now Then spend a life fixated on how Some of the best things in life Come from nothing I want something more then to just exist I am nothing And that’s all I’ll ever be Believe that it gets better At least that’s what I tell myself To keep me from losing my fucking mind I hate this feeling of always being miserable But I’m fucking miserable And I don’t want to be anymore

Bliss 03:18
A constant chase for a high I’ve never felt It’s the way they all seem so at peace that fills me with jealousy I wish I could throw away all this sense of reality But it’s hard to change fact It’s hard to change the fucking facts I want to succumb to the fantasy I just want to believe in anything This loneliness makes me feel like I can’t coexist As days go by I just want to live in ignorance I cant believe in anything anymore The walls I built up don’t work like they did before Fill my head with ignorance So you can drown me in bliss All I want is to rid my mind of this reality To give my life some sense of comfortability I try to leave, but you keep pulling me back. Back just to watch me drown. These memories will fade away, but your ghost still makes a sound. Can you feel this misery? Can you fill this void in me? Can you promise me it’ll be worth it (in the end) To see this life for what it isn’t. This loneliness makes me feel like I can’t coexist As days go by I just want to live in ignorance I cant believe in anything anymore The walls I built up don’t work like they did before Fill my head with ignorance So you can drown me in bliss

Deteriorate 02:35
There are thoughts in my head That I wish I could forget So much I’ve tried to put in the past I don’t think I can move on from yet Constant fear of the next episode Days or weeks That’s not something I get know. Maybe this time I’ll finally take control It can’t happen again if I just end it all So as I go on I forget nothing and everything Try to make it up as I go But the truth is I’m fading I’m not asking for help I don’t need saving Save your prayers For someone with less understanding I’d trade it all for a piece of mind Something to help the ups take Take away the filth inside I’m running out of smiles to fake Grasping at something just to fill the spaces I’m getting so tired of always saving faces Free me from the darkness inside I want nothing more then to escape this life So as I go on I forget nothing and everything Try to make it up as I go But the truth is I’m fading I’m not asking for help I don’t need saving Save your prayers For someone with less understanding I’d trade it all for a piece of mind Something to help the ups take Take away the filth inside I’m running out of smiles to fake
