Anymore 03:15
There’s a voice in your head And it really wants you dead It won’t stop cause I tell it to There’s a knot in your gut But it’s not coming undone Though I’ve tried to cut it loose Is this really worth the pain I don’t think you’ll ever change I’m coming down I can’t save your life And I can’t save mine We’re stuck here on the floor Try to pull you up But you won’t budge I can’t give you what you’re looking for Anymore Anymore Used to sit on this couch While you scrutinized yourself Always there to soften your rage What I’m starting to think Is I float more than I sink But I let you wash me away There is novelty In this joint suffering I’m coming down I can’t save your life And I can’t save mine We’re stuck here on the floor Try to pull you up But you won’t budge I can’t give you what you’re looking for Anymore Anymore I hope someday You wake up And you won’t remember what it’s like to bleed But as for me I can’t save your life And I can’t save mine We’re stuck here on the floor Try to pull you up But you won’t budge I can’t give you what you’re looking for Anymore There is no novelty In this joint suffering I’m coming down There is no novelty In this joint suffering Here I am suffering I’m coming down I’m coming down

Remission 03:14
There was a time I couldn’t breathe Without you sinking into me All in my lungs, I’m coughing blood again You always knew the string to cut To send me in another rut All in my head, and pulling threads again But I’ve become too raw To play dead While you open me back up Maybe I’m getting cured And I’m not waiting for You to love me more than I can Maybe I’m feeling fine And I’m not wasting time Ruminating my remission I found your chord, I cut you off You’re not the only friend that I’ve got Not in my lungs, or coughing blood Again ‘Cause I’ve become too raw To play dead While you open me back up Maybe I’m getting cured And I’m not waiting for You to love me more than I can Maybe I’m feeling fine And I’m not wasting time Ruminating my remission ‘Cause I’ve become too raw To play dead While you open me back up Maybe I’m getting cured And I’m not waiting for You to love me more than I can Maybe I’m feeling fine And I’m not wasting time Ruminating my remission ‘Cause I’ve become too raw To play dead While you open me back up

Montreal 03:51
You’re states and streets away And I miss you all the time So we'll make calls that'll cost us every nickel To get us through the night Keep me on your mind Someday This'll be over It's temporary We'll be together I'll meet you at the border You looked at me like crystal Now I shine when I’m alone Still it gets dim when I'm floating without you You are my home Someday This'll be over It's temporary We'll be together I'll meet you at the border I’ll walk outside See you in streetlights Just say you’ll wait for me Wait for me You’re states and streets away But I'd do it any time Someday This'll be over It's temporary We'll be together I'll meet you at the border It's temporary We'll be together I'll meet you at

Everybody 03:26
These days I can feel my bones as my Body shakes I know I'm alone 'Cause I feel the sting on everyone I see We're in shock And we're lost There's no space there They've got their pioneer We've been dreaming for so long And everybody knows where the dreamers go And we've been waiting our whole lives And everybody knows Everybody knows This year Nothing's slightly simple And I don't know where The hell I'm supposed to start 'Cause I've got my rage but there's so much more pian I can't know And I won't There's no space there They've got their pioneer We've been dreaming for so long And everybody knows where the dreamers go And we've been waiting our whole lives And everybody knows Everybody knows Was I just dreaming this whole time Everybody knows we're only waiting For everybody else to be as angry Give me a reason to say That this isn't over and we've still got our brains Fight back the headlines and make a new name Let's start a fire and we'll burn down the dream Make our world a reality (Give me a reason to say) I'm fighting the headlines day after day I can't pretend the world feels safe When all we see is heartache I know this can't be right Give me a reason to say Please give me a reason to say

Breathe 04:07
I'm here again Down in this hole I dug Don't know how I fell Guess I'm just so easy to shove I can feel them, spiders creeping Eating the wires in my brain And I'm down again Sinking into nothing Breathe now, breathe more Maybe I should just try breathing Choke now, choke more Til I'm free Am I better yet Thought I'd be by now Spent so much time Tryna climb my way out I'm a failure and I'll die here Choking on dirt and decay While spiders crunch on what's left of me Breathe now, breathe more Maybe I should just try breathing Choke now, choke more Til I'm free How does it crack my soul And how does it seep in Where does my body go when My head's missing And how does it crack my soul And how does it break in Where does my body go when My head's Down Down Never really wanna be Never really wanna be Down Down Never ever wanna me Never ever meant to be down Am I better yet Thought I'd be by now Spent so much time Tryna climb my way out I'm a failure and I'll die here Choking on dirt and decay And you'll wonder what I let take me Breathe now, breathe more Maybe I should just try breathing Choke now, choke more Til I'm free How does it crack my soul And how does it seep in Where does my body go when My head's missing And how does it crack my soul And how does it break in Where does my body go when My head's Breathe now, breathe more Maybe I should just try breathing Choke now, choke more Til I'm free

In the Dust 03:01
So here we go quitting As you talk yourself into thinking It's okay and I won't even miss a thing I'm better off with no one anyway And I was just trying To leave you far behind But it didn't work out Bet you'd break my heart every time And that's just fine So when you're on the warped tour saying "I'm sorry", then I won't be there, I won't be your biggest fan Go on crying that's all I really ask And yeah, I'm okay but hey, I'm lying Wishing you could see that I'm still trying 'Cause I wanna be the one better off The one who's leaving you in the dust Man, you're doing great And I won't be the one to tell you off But oh, how I just wanna scream 'Cause your prom date, she's hot But she can't shake her ass like me And I wish that I could shove it al In your freckled face, how I got through the fall But now my band's gone And yours is up shooting How I wish I wasn't losing now So when you're on the warped tour saying "I'm sorry", then I won't be there, I won't be your biggest fan Go on crying that's all I really ask And yeah, I'm okay but hey, I'm lying Wishing you could see that I'm still trying 'Cause I wanna be the one better off The one who's leaving you in the dust The one who's leaving you in the dust The one who's leaving you in the dust Won't leave it alone 'cause this sucks You suck So here we go quitting As you talk yourself into thinking It's okay and I won't even miss a thing I'm better off without you anyway So when you're on the warped tour saying "I'm sorry", then I won't be there, I won't be your biggest fan Go on crying that's all I really ask And yeah, I'm okay but hey, I'm lying Wishing you could see that I'm still trying 'Cause I wanna be the one better off The one who's leaving you in the dust The one who's leaving you in the dust

I wake up Think that I have changed But I'm just my plain old self Nothing's wrong I should feel okay But I feel nothing at all Let me come alive Let me come alive Give me a reason Worth grieving Give me something I can sink in So at least I won't drown myself Just give me a reason Give me something to cry about Give me something to cry about Could've had my home blown away But I'm stuck in my own bed Nursing all of my petty pain That's outside of my head Let me come alive Let me come alive Just give me a reason Worth grieving Give me something I can sink in So at least I won't drown myself Just give me a reason Give me something to cry about Give me something to cry about Just give me a reason Worth grieving Give me something I can sink in So at least I won't drown myself Just give me a reason Give me something to cry about Give me something to cry about Give me a reason to drown

I'm losing sleep But could you blame me when it's hard to breathe Feels like a knife's against my throat I can't escape And I know the heartache's hear to stay I think it's made itself a home So guide me Watch over me The darkness that surrounds me can't erase what you have done Won't spend my life Face down on the floor 'Cause I hear your voice More than ever before I'll never say These words enough Oh, I miss your ways Keep on lifting me up Keep on lifting me up I'll live for you And I'll chase the dreams that you shared too It's how I keep your words alive They guide me They comfort me The darkness that surrounds me can't erase what you have done You've show me What it means to be A person free of hatred now I welcome what's to come Won't spend my life Face down on the floor 'Cause I hear your voice More than ever before I'll never say These words enough Oh, I miss your ways Keep on lifting me up Keep on lifting me up Keep on lifting me Won't spend my life Face down on the floor 'Cause I hear your voice More than ever before I'll never say These words enough Oh, I miss your ways Keep on lifting me up I'll never say I've had enough Oh, I miss your ways Keep on lifting me
