Blackout 03:24
I have lost touch with myself I’ve become consumed by the things of this world And all that I’ve held dear has been laid to waste In an attempt to bury my selfishness Round and round again This cycle never ends In this bottomless ocean of defeat What will tomorrow bring Just madness on repeat? The undertow just pulls me in deeper and deeper So I try to breathe again But the waves keep crashing over my head The torrents keep sweeping me under I have lost all self control I’ve got to find my way home Find my way Find my way Find my way home This is a black out Losing consciousness... Fading away... I’ve got to find... My way home... Lead me to shore, where the sun can dry my skin And the sand can cover all of my shame

Better Days 04:24
Take a look into the mirror and what do I see Who is that person staring back, staring back at me A man who is desperate and longing for hope From his demons he wants to break free Searching far and deep and wide for a place to call his home, for a place to call his home Lift your head up, there will be better days Do not let all of these things, try to bring you down Believe in yourself and do not lose your faith Stand up relentless and fight through the pain Do not give up now, you've only just begun. You’re not alone, this storm will soon be over You’re not alone, just keep pushing through If you look into the sky, you can see the clouds begin to recede just long enough to see the sun shine. It's all we know and everything has meaning Now and forever more Finally whole in the most peculiar way Bear, tire, sleep

Live your life in a way that makes you think that life is supposed to be this way Fixate the pain, the joy, the life you crave on better things Simple steps to gain a fortune open your eyes you'll adore it. I made them for you. Simple steps to gain a fortune, you closed your eyes and ignored it, now all you're seeing is blue. With arms stretched wide, look to the sky find new meaning in the word flight Simple steps to gain a fortune open your eyes you'll adore it. I made them for you. Simple steps to gain a fortune, you closed your eyes and ignored it, now all you’re seeing is blue The sun rose today, theres a new opportunity to progress in this journey How humble must you be to proceed in the very things that grant you your being And when the time comes grab ahold of what makes you, you And trust that everything you do is love Does my logic outweigh my emotions Or do have new steps in motion?

Oxygen 03:54
Trapped inside my mind With nowhere else to hide I’ve placed these thoughts away To face another day I’ll go where the wind takes me Wherever that may be And any clarity that I possessed is now fleeting I have become just a shell, a feeble being Apprehensive to the act of living in fear Frightened by the outcome of the ending Just breathe, and you will find your peace Serenity, a place of calming release Just breathe, trust and see that you hold the key to lucidity Just breathe in the oxygen that brings new life Breathe in, breathe out Inhale this infinite oxygen Breathe in, breathe out Let it consume your entire being Just breathe, breathe Just breathe There I stood perched high above all To see what these hands built To see how far was my fall The road meandered and danger was always near But trust I’ve had, in you my dear For the toil of a man can never be calm For the life we live is what makes us strong But my strength is found when I’m near you I’m a boat without rudder, a man in his tomb You’re the peace that I seek The hand I long to hold You're the comfort I need, for my tired soul Be still my mind Hold on to hope Don't give in this time Hold these thoughts far at bay just to make it through another day See their faces brings me peace I just want to be free Just breathe, and you will find your peace Serenity, a place of calming release Just breathe, trust and see that you hold the key to lucidity Just breathe in the oxygen that brings new life

Separate, Me 06:32
Pain, distress, and misery are all that I feel these days Heartbreak has become my mistress as I dance with desolation and despair How long will this torment last? Back and forth The struggle The tension grows You left me here, broken and incomplete A shattered heart and empty dreams Now I must rebuild but I have nothing left Is this my destiny? How long will this torment last? Back and forth The struggle The tension grows When will this madness end For I am growing weary I’ve tried and tried to let this go But I have reached the end of me There is no sense in moving forward We owe it to ourselves to turn and walk away What remains when there is nothing left to give... Nothing more to give Sunder Disconnect Tear away Separate Separate, me Blood sweat tears and labor Oh how we found favor rising with the sun How quickly it has faded Our beauty all negated Crashing with the tide Torment and turmoil Were the only gifts received with our palms out towards the sea And captain, my sweet captain We're losing everything Everything we know Everything we know Maybe it's time to let this go Maybe it's time we let this go Maybe it's time to let this go Maybe it's time
