either way I always fail to recall this and either way its falling slowly to me but every day is long and takes it all either way there’s nothing left for me to give either way I remember everything in every way this will repeat itself again either way an affection remains the same but either way we can’t ratify either way I forgot what I do this for and either way its got me further than I know either way an affection remains remains the same but either way there’s no use for blame there’s no way I’ll ever stop this cycle and there’s no way to get this back on course any day it will collapse and take us down just find a way...........its life there’s no way I forgot what I do for you and there’s no way we won’t do this all again either way an affection remains remains the same but either way there’s no use for blame and every day it finds a way everyday I think I put this to bed but no repeat repeat repeat repeat and then wait for a change either way I forgot what I do this for and either way its got me further than I know there’s no way I forgot what I do for you and there’s no way we won’t do this all again

The Wait 03:46
Every day here Lost its presence Flesh and touching you Reverses the way I’ll break in two (waiting for you) If I wait for you Resist all these pleas Despite all the tears I’ve mistaken you For someone who cares I’ll break in two (waiting for you) If I wait for you Resist the patience Resist the path Resist the patience Patience only leads to contempt The wait takes so much time I'll break in two always Left with no path I can't Only you can tell me I'll break in two If I wait for you Vast indifference Fills this nothing Blatant cutting through Pulse left ruptured I'll wait for you

Disconnect 03:13
The destruction of a dream Can I say that I did the best I could? Forgot what it’s like to make believe Wish I could say I still believed that dreams Only die when they come true I’ll disconnect, I’ll disconnect, its over It’s better now this way Cause this direction isn’t quite so star-studded Can I convince myself that this is better? Disconnect I’m disconnected A rude awakening when dreams meet reality And you’re forced to wake from sleep Oil and water, fire and ice, when getting close will not suffice But it’s not the only way No it’s not the only way When you take this in Then you find there’s more out there for you For me

Upside down I'm still in one piece Turn around Concern this fall the least When all the while, when all is defiled There's still no clarity But when is it time To say I cannot see Always find this wall Obstruct the view of it all But I'll always test its strength I'll always try to break Through before I can't escape I'm always tempting fate (This is my solution, This is my dilution) I'm no good for you like this I'm no good for anyone So let me remain like this Detached from everyone Admission to tempting fate In this epiphany Admission to testing my Inferiority It's just no good

The Pedestal 03:22
You hate that anyone else exists I'm finally sick of the intolerance Someone remind me what is healthy About that pedestal you're on You're no exception to the rule We're all here sharing the same air Who really cares about the battle It's a war that no one wins The nerve to say you're better than The man who built what you're standing on There's pride in your intolerance Say it out loud, does it still make sense? I don't expect to change your mind But there's some truth here for your kind You claim to have all of the answers Take a look around, you're wrong You're wrong It's time, get down Down, down, off your pedestal Come, come, come show me the way Tell me that I'm lost in who I am today Make sure to ignore every word that I have to say You've second-guessed yourself too much To truly trust your righteous crutch Forget and forgive, live and let live But maybe that's too much for you Let me hear your view on pride And let your ego then decide You claim to have all of the answers Take a look around, you're wrong You're wrong It's time, get down Down, down, off your pedestal Come, come, come show me the way Tell me that I'm lost in who I am today Make sure to ignore every word that I have to say You don't get it, you won't ever get it, no You don't get it, you won't ever get it, no You've reached the point of no return Tell me, tell me Come share your wisdom with us all Tell me, tell me Tell us how we're destined to fall Tell me, tell me How to prepare for the curtain call Tell me just how you'll save us all Tell me just how you will save us all Come, come, come show me the way Tell me that I'm lost in who I am today Make sure to ignore every word that I have to say Tell us that we're lost in who we are today

Masochist 04:43
I've filled my life with failures And here's a new one for the list Can't pass up a chance to lose No matter how much I insist I couldn't find a way to be I guess I still can't, so I give in Masochist Everything everything falls apart again Won't you say, won't you tell me Everything everything comes around again Make me pay. Start this all again Broke down all my walls Exposed the one that I abhor So now they're built back up Thicker and stronger than before My shoulders can't hold the weight I'm keeping it all inside, it's my only way Masochist Everything everything falls apart again Won't you say, won't you tell me Everything everything comes around again Make me pay. Start this all again Everything everything comes around again Everything everything falls apart again
