Problems 02:05
I have a pimple coming in and my friends hate my guts I think I'm having fun but really I have had enough Does it bother anybody else that it doesn't bother me at all So small, but one day I'll crawl up and I won't fall My problems, they phase me But I cover them so easily Needless to say Unlike you I won't run away I've heard three stories all are different and all come from you My friends say that's too much but to me it's only a few Too much of everything and not enough of something else Get help, or I can help you help myself get out My problems, they phase me But I cover them so easily Needless to say Unlike you I won't run away

I'm trying To get over you But that's a brick wall I can't run through You remind me of How much I mess shit up Which is nice because I don't think about it enough I'm blacking out And losing control My body's now Under your spell You are a witch I am a clown Let's burn together This whole world down Catastrophe You're at it again You really are My only friend A big mistake To assume I'm safe I want the truth But I'm too fake You are the Bee inside my Car that makes me Want to crash I am the Bug that bothers You and makes you think Fuck the Earth I'm spiraling Right to my grave Thanks for always Letting me be your slave I had some fun So I can say I'm glad I fell For you in a I'm trying To get over you But that's a brick wall I can't run through You remind me of How much I mess shit up Which is nice because I don't think about it enough I'm blacking out And losing control My body's now Under your spell You are a witch I am a clown Let's burn together This whole world down

Relapse 03:05
Baby blue eyes and bracelet My biggest weakness I like your little smile It makes me feel good It's reassuring Knowing you don't know Conversation getting boring Oh don't ignore me It's the thrill of the chase I know But it's still a blood rush Insecurities taking over Further than I thought I would make it Baby blue eyes and bracelet I fucking hate you And your little smile Ruins my day I really thought that You weren't like this Relationships getting boring Oh I'm so sorry It's the thrill of the chase I know But it's still a blood rush Insecurities taking over Further than I thought I would make it Having zero self worth really Can come in handy when you Want to get rid of one of The greatest things That have ever happened Cause I thought you were cool But it was just clearly A side effect Of me blinded by beauty I can't explain Why I fall so easily But I'm getting stronger Hazel green eyes and short skirt My biggest weakness And your funny t-shirt Makes me feel good It's reassuring knowing you don't know Conversation getting boring Oh don't ignore me It's the thrill of the chase I know But it's still a blood rush Insecurities taking over Further than I thought I would make it

Hammerhead 03:09
You're my hammerhead shark And I'll tell you exactly why If I tried to play with you Then I would probably die You'd eat me alive and swallow me whole Make sure that you are in control Throw me in your tank and we can swim around I'm so afraid of you so I will not be scared to drown I fed you live bait so you gotta appreciate All the work I've done to keep you from hating me Cause you are the bottle And I am the lid I'm screwed on to you I'm your containment I'm all uptight So you don't spill If I'm weak and you leak There's no more refills no I self diagnosed my OCD Cause three letter words really bother me I'll cross my eyes until I become blind And cross faded thoughts of you enter my mind It's been almost a year and I'm still standing here Right where you left me no place I would rather be Three dots in a bubble give me panic attacks But good for you it's your final payback yeah Cause you are the bottle And I am the lid I'm screwed on to you I'm your containment I'm all uptight So you don't spill If I'm weak and you leak There's no more refills I'm the STD for your virginity It's not irony -- it's just you and me On our wedding day, you'll say that you're gay And you'll move away, but I'll just stay Right in the same spot and it's getting hot Because I thought about how we fought Over stupid shit, but I miss it I don't wanna quit, I don't wanna quit I don't wanna quit, I don't wanna quit I don't wanna quit, I don't wanna quit I don't wanna quit, I don't wanna quit I don't wanna quit, I don't wanna quit no

Obsession 02:38
Thanks for telling me to enjoy the rest of my life I was starting to think that you just didn't care how I feel But now I'm glad cause at least I know where you stand And since it's not next to me I'll plan my final stand alone Yeah of course I've moved on what'd you expect? For me to just sit and wait for you to change your mind Cause fuck that, I don't have the time At least your heart still beats Cause that's better than mine Wait I'm sorry but you need to go back to that Did you just say that you're the one who thinks they're under attack While I was, waiting and waiting and waiting for you to make your move Time's up, now I finally get to say you lose I'm a jerk and you're cool I know that You broke me with your traps like I'm a rat Your personality like this chord is flat Sorry I'm done with all this stupid chitchat Relaxing I need therapy Just to force you Out of my body Just a common cold That's how you started But now you're a cancer Spreading to my heart and Pretty soon you'll be stuck in my head And I'll remember all the stupid things I said Look in the cabinet to get some more meds Cause I need either you or them or I'll be dead You're a risk that I can no longer take I wish I could just love you when I'm awake But for now in my dreams will have to make Do, cause fuck that, I'm finally over you I'm addicted yeah I need more of you You know I'm not lying well at least your name is true I know you're an unhealthy obsession It's just hard living in this world when You no longer have your favorite possession I'm addicted yeah I need more of you You know I'm not lying well at least your name is true I know you're an unhealthy obsession It's just hard living in this world when I'm addicted yeah I need more of you You know I'm not lying well at least your name is true I know you're an unhealthy obsession You were my favorite possession oooooo

Childhood 02:57
When I was younger I was afraid of meteors Now one thing I'm frightened by Is becoming a corporate whore When I was in 7th grade I listened to Nirvana Now they're telling me grow up But I don't wanna When I was younger I wanted fame and fortune Now I'm older and I'm trying But it's pain and it is torture When I was in 1st grade I thought I needed a wife Now I am an adult And I need a life These crooks are in my thoughts again And why they're back I can't explain I don't think that they wanna talk I think they want a piece -- of my brain Now that I'm older I finally feel protected Or maybe when I grew up I gave up and defected When I went to private school I wore their tacky uniforms It felt weird matching all of them I guess that's why I can't conform I wanted to be in Teen Titans I wanted to be in Kids Next Door But now I'm old and all alone Cause my dreams aren't with me anymore One time I had a goldfish His name was Speed Racer When he died he went down the drain And I said see you later These crooks are in my thoughts again And why they're back I can't explain I don't think that they wanna talk I think they want a piece -- of my brain These crooks are in my thoughts again And why they're back I can't explain I don't think that they wanna talk I think they want a piece -- of my brain

Escape 03:42
I hate you I hate your guts Half the things you do You only do to drive me nuts I miss you But that’s a lie Cause every time I think About you a part of me dies Oh how You’re ruined reality I love the time I spent with you But I hate the memories I try to hide But thoughts of you find a way through I’m just one in a million Stranded on a raft for two But I can make room for you You're under my skin But now it's grown thin Once you get out You can't get back in You silenced my mouth Yeah your lips are duct tape You tied me with your words but now I can escape I start to ponder while I wander down an empty road Will I be better off without having your feeding hand to hold Emptiness looks pretty nice because it cannot make a sound I wander down an empty road and hope that hope will soon be found Destroying my Lungs is relaxing Cause I hate the fresh air Life is so taxing The thought of therapy Threatens my sanity Blink a little slower So you’ll see what you do to me And then will you please just leave You're under my skin But now it's grown thin Once you get out You can't get back in You silenced my mouth Yeah your lips are duct tape You tied me with your words but now I can escape I just wish that you’d hate me too Tell me I’m free now please You're under my skin But now it's grown thin Once you get out You can't get back in You silenced my mouth Yeah your lips are duct tape You tied me with your words but now I can escape I can escape I can escape I can escape

Oxygen 04:10
You can throw me away I’m your garbage man You were a mess I could clean At least that was the plan Thinking of you makes me bored Living has become a chore You meant the world to me But I didn’t know what you meant I wish that I could say I didn’t care at all Why did you have to go When I needed you most It’s tough living life When you’re not feeling tall I wish that I was above you I think it’s hard to think about you anymore My head hurts more than the day you slammed the door Right in my face but it’s my fault I was out of place And I’m over it now can’t you see I’m doing great You’re like carbon dioxide to me Cause too much of you is really unhealthy But without you I cannot breathe This is how I try and get you out of my heart I wish I could just make more of you Then you’ll be absorbed by the trees Then I’ll fall to my knees And I’ll try and take you back I wish that I could say I didn’t care at all Why did you have to go When I needed you most It’s tough living life When you’re not feeling tall I wish that I was above you I wish that I could say I didn’t care at all Why did you have to go When I needed you most It’s tough living life When you’re not feeling tall I wish that I was above you

Postcard 04:42
I miss when we’d Cut class together, it wouldn’t de- Pend on the weather I could I could always count on you not being there Whether it was Raining or sunny you thought my Stupid hat was funny and I could I could pretend you understood what I meant And that’s because Something is wrong with my everything Look at all the unhappiness it brings I know cause I’m one of them too (You’re just like me, I’m just like) You are running your own train And I’m tied to the rails cause I’m insane And you’re on track to kill me again (This time I hope it’s the last time) You said I should Wait for you next semester but I had Already been festered by all the Bullshit and lies you spewed at me So I Couldn’t wait much longer I tried Getting much stronger but you Still had the hold on me And that’s because Something is wrong with my everything Look at all the unhappiness it brings I know cause I’m one of them too (You’re just like me, I’m just like) You are running your own train And I’m tied to the rails cause I’m insane And you’re on track to kill me again (This time I hope it’s the last time) Building a bridge just wasn’t enough I thought I could just pass over the rough times And I would be in the green But from Running in circles I have Finally come full circle And from the outside I can see I’m stuck in between And that’s because Something is wrong with my everything Look at all the unhappiness it brings I know cause I’m one of them too (You’re just like me, I’m just like) You are running your own train And I’m tied to the rails cause I’m insane And you’re on track to kill me again (This time I hope it’s the last time) I want to Write you a postcard I know it Doesn’t sound like it’s that hard But I can never get past your name I don’t know why So maybe I’ll Carve it in stone one night When I am all alone And it’ll be stuck there Until the day that I die
