Our hearts won’t race Our hearts won’t race forever I can’t hold on Can’t change the fact I’m always stale Can’t change the fact What’s coming next? I can’t shake this feeling On and on, it’s the same old I’ve got to get away Vacant eyes, empty soul I’m trying to make this right Where my heart’s supposed to be I’m still holding on with everything I’ve got Soon enough I’ll have my way Every moment I try so hard But this gap between us grew It’s worth more than I can show But you turned me down once again I resented you and my hate is growing I’ve got nowhere else and I drift away The pressure is weighing down, but it's coming down on you Soon enough I’ll have my way This is my redemption My redemption to make you fall This is my redemption Either way, it's my closure motion Find your mark and tie your faith Because you know I see right through you I won’t align Cast aside Embrace the hate I can see misery Cast aside Embrace the hate Misery Do you know what it feels like? I can see your misery

Circles 02:02
I feel my body rotting My faith dies with me My future embodies nothing but self-regret Not everybody feels this I made the wrong choice I hate myself for trusting you I’m sinking faster and faster Quicksand's got me by the neck As I count the days, I’m slowly changing To become better than I was before You have watched me suffer through this endless game Convincing me that I was a burden With my veins full of rage Nothing stands in my hatred way It feels facile to breathe with my hands around your neck Spitting blood it thrills me Thrill I’ve just woke up from this dream And realised that I’ve been walking in circles

Second Last 04:09
So save your words and I’ll fade away now Give me a match and I'll burn it all down Pick yourself up as I walk away now Because it's dark inside and we’re all alone I tried to find the meaning of it all But the weight is just too much to hold These roots run dry inside of me I see myself crawling through this pain Gently bending but never broken I’m just another fool to this rat race of life Maybe I’m just deemed to be as weak as everyone else So self-doubts have brought me closer to hell I seek this exile to bring me further I can’t resist, I feel disconnected My own self-worth has been deeply kept Tracing back to the time it started I wish that I could change my facade Steps were taken Measures made I could never imagine anything else What it's like on the other side Another night Another tale Waiting by the phone There’s nothing I can do Smoke to numb the bitter strife Another night Another tale Waiting by the phone It feels empty in this hallway I know you left to save yourself Keep what's left of yourself It's time to move on now I can't practice what I preach But I’ll make amends to myself I know I’ll hurt as time passes by Keep what's left of yourself It's time to move on now I write these things when I'm not sober So I'll mull on it and pretend everything's fine Keep what's left of yourself It’s time to move on now Pull the strings on my heart to make it beat once again You’re not alone

When I lay my eyes On the one thing that I embrace I can see what’s left of your reckoning This is what makes me feel alive The colours that run through The brightest smile you gave This is me, seeking love from you Break my vows, untangle my tongue at last If I could find you one more time I’ll place my words perfectly It’ll be a new dawn Start again and begin anew (Breathe in hope, it’s been so long) Start again and begin anew (Find a way to pull me out) Ever since then, I’d just falter every single time I pick myself up Losing all the patience I had Time alludes me to be a slave to my heart Suspended in nature, brushing my skin away bit by bit Did it have to be this way? My reflection blinds me Do you perceive to be worthy of my hope? The beauty of life Now turns into something I can’t escape I lie awake from time to time I can’t sleep through the night Like the pictures in my head Are fading away And I remember it like a dream That there was nobody else to confide in When you walked away
