To Breathe Again
I feel your hands around my throat I'm pushing back But the more I do The more I choke I'm just trying to find a way Through this life Before becoming a candle on the roadside All I need is space To get lost and away from the haze Can we look up to the sky and Become the choir in the night We can forget that everything's wrong If you just keep me here for one more song I'm not going down I won't back out till we're shouting Oh ooh whoa ooh whoa Fight whatever comes our way and Just so you know, we'll all Make it out alive Manipulated We congregate and we lick our wounds Put us back together We lift our heads to shout at the moon Where no one can bring us down It's in our nature To combat the hatred So just hold your ground Hold your ground Can we look up to the sky and Become the choir in the night We can forget that everything's wrong If you just keep me here for one more song I'm not going down I won't back out till we're shouting Oh ooh whoa ooh whoa Fight whatever comes our way and Just so you know, we'll all Make it out alive Can we look up to the sky and Become the choir in the night We can forget that everything's wrong If you just keep me here for one more song I'm not going down I won't back out till we're shouting Oh ooh whoa ooh whoa Fight whatever comes our way and Just so you know, we'll all Make it out alive

Shadow of Regret
To Breathe Again
Regret Pick apart all the things you said to me Another lie Masked by jealousy Once again Begging you to stay When everyone has walked away Never been the one to forget Sold my soul to pay back all your sins Could have told you this would come to end But you wouldn't listen As my heart turns to stone (turns to stone) Set fire to this house of gold (house of gold) Break away from the hell you put me in And bathe in the shadow of regret I can see clearly now for the first time Now that I'm free from your line of sight Sold my soul, but I'll take it back I refuse to go out like that Never been the one to forget Sold my soul to pay back all your sins Could have told you this would come to end But you wouldn't listen As my heart turns to stone (turns to stone) Set fire to this house of gold (house of gold) Break away from the hell you put me in And bathe in the shadow of regret I built these walls And I forged your crown But if looks could kill I'd burn this whole fucking Place down BLEGH! Burn this whole fucking place down Oh Never been the one to forget Sold my soul to pay back all your sins Could have told you this would come to end But you wouldn't listen As my heart turns to stone (turns to stone) Set fire to this house of gold (house of gold) Break away from the hell you put me in And bathe in the shadow of Regret

Moments
To Breathe Again
Of all the moments that I wish I could take back I'd take back the one that ever gave you a chance I give up On being your problem I give up on trying to fix you just to solve them The rope you tied is only getting tighter But this time we're gonna suffocate in silence I lay down my weapons I lay down my fight The only thing that I have left Are these open wounds and my regrets Of all the moments that I wish I could take back I'd take back the one that ever gave you a chance Of all the demons that I ever had to deal with My constant craving you would make the top of that list Now! I'm finally moving on Now! I've finally had enough Of every broken promise in this desperate endeavor for love The one thing that I wish I had never done Is give you the one chance to fuck it up The sky is falling around me still Lightning strikes then proceeds to Course through my veins To stop my brain I try to fight back But there's no time left Of all the moments that I wish I could take back I'd take back the one that ever gave you a chance Of all the demons that I ever had to deal with My constant craving you would make the top of that list Now! I'm finally moving on Now! I've finally had enough Of every broken promise in this desperate endeavor for love The one thing that I wish I had never done Is give you the one chance to fuck it up I lay down my weapons I lay down my fight The only thing that I have left Are these open wounds and my regrets Of all the moments that I wish I could take back I'd take back the one that ever gave you a chance Of all the demons that I ever had to deal with My constant craving you would make the top of that list Now! I'm finally moving on Now! I've finally had enough Of every broken promise in this desperate endeavor for love The one thing that I wish I had never done Is give you the one chance to fuck it up

Give
To Breathe Again
You wear Me down Build me up just to drown me out You tear Apart Skip the seams Go straight for the heart Your hatred is a detriment Your words unthought Only said Your snide remarks pierce my skin Like the knife you twisted further in But nothing that you say will change my mind that it's Not right But nothing that I say to you will get through to your mind I'm begging and I'm pleading for somebody to Hear me While you just go ahead and Take what you want from me Because there's nothing left to give Claim your crown You well known thief Prove to yourself that you can You picked a fight to prove your worth You faked your might As you stood On the backs that were never meant to Bear your burden now Your time is up The fuel is lit The match I used has snapped your grip It was all a game Your creation And it's all over now But nothing that I say will convince you it's Not right But nothing that you say could ever fire the gaslight You manipulate and cheat and tonight is the Last time That you just go ahead and Take what you want from me Because there's nothing left to give Claim your crown You well known thief Prove to yourself that you can Rule the world and consume until You begin to descend And that is when you'll finally see That this is where it ends This is where it ends Take what you want from me Because there's nothing left to give Claim your crown You well known thief Prove to yourself that you can Rule the world and consume until You begin to descend And that is when you'll finally see That this is where it ends

Forevermore
To Breathe Again
I feel this hole inside my chest That I laid to rest, is Beginning to decay Just know I can never sleep Without your arms wrapped Around and holding me Can you even suffocate If you're still breathing No No I never said that you could sleep forever No No I never said that you could sleep forever The more I break Cuz you couldn't stay The more I circle down this drain No No I never said you could sleep forever- More (Sleep forever) More I hear you knocking at my door But I've learned before You're not there You're not there I'll ask the Raven once more If you're ever coming home But quoth the Raven Nevermore No No I never said that you could sleep forever No No I never said that you could sleep forever The more I break Cuz you couldn't stay The more I circle down this drain No No I never said you could sleep forever- More BLEGH No No I never said that you could sleep forever No No I never said that you could sleep forever The more I break Cuz you couldn't stay The more I circle down this drain No No I never said you could sleep forever- More (Sleep forever) More (Sleep forever) More (Sleep forever) More

Restart
To Breathe Again
I don't want to seek your help I don't need your sympathy I just want to be left alone, and count Scars that you can't see And I can't tell you all the answers When I feel like they're all lies And I can't look at you with a smile, and not Know if I'll survive But I don't want to know the answers Cuz I don't want to know the truth I just wanna stay in my bubble And act like there's nothing Left for me to do And I don't wanna hear nobody ask me If I'm going to be okay Cuz the truth is that I'll fight it Til I find out either way Leave me in the dark To tear this place apart I'll burn this structure down To ashes on the ground From there I will restart Reach again for the stars And see if I make it that far Doesn't seem it'll be that hard Stay where you are, and Leave me in the dark Oh, whoa, oh, oh Leave me in the dark Oh, whoa, oh, oh I don't want to know the secrets I don't need the codes to cheat And I can't afford to push myself ahead without Crawling on my knees And I don't want to take direction I wanna forge my own path And leave behind the broken pieces For a sleek and brand new mast But I don't want to know the answers Cuz I don't want to know the truth I just wanna stay in my bubble And act like there's nothing Left for me to do And I don't wanna hear nobody ask me If I'm going to be okay Because the truth is that I'll fight it Till I find out either way Leave me in the dark To tear this place apart I'll burn this structure down To ashes on the ground From there I will restart Reach again for the stars And see if I make it that far Doesn't seem it'll be that hard Stay where you are, and Leave me in the dark I won't be defeated I just need a minute I won't let you down I just need to step out I've got something to Finish Leave me in the dark To tear this place apart I'll burn this structure down To ashes on the ground From there I will restart Reach again for the stars And see if I make it that far Doesn't seem it'll be that hard Stay where you are, and Leave me in the dark Oh, whoa, oh, oh Leave me in the dark Oh, whoa, oh, oh Leave me in the dark Dark Dark Dark Dark

Past Life
To Breathe Again
You won't find me in the past life Fighting for a breath I'm only looking forward I'm not running away Fight off all my demons Put nails in their coffins This is my story you cannot erase You come around just to keep up appearances Show your face when it's nice and convenient You play the hero at all the best times And paint me up as all the victims and the bad guys Never mind all the lies you made The sleepless nights that you kept me awake With all my doubts and insecurities Scared to fight back in spite of my dignity I won't entertain your pointless delusions I won't hesitate to block and remove them Stepping forward into my own existence While you just turn and flee You won't find me in the past life Fighting for a breath I'm only looking forward I'm not running away Fight off all my demons Put nails in their coffins This is my story you cannot erase The sands of time have sealed our fate With every moment you try to instigate You cut your tongue on a razor's edge Yet want a shout out about lies and revenge I'm sick of being lied to I'm sick of being scorned I'm sick of all the tales of how your family adores you You backed us into a corner for the last time And now you'll find out what the concrete tastes like I'm cancelling all of your subscriptions To all my feelings and thoughts and convictions Your best bet moving forward is to keep your distance You won't find me in the past life Fighting for a breath I'm only looking forward I'm not running away Fight off all my demons Put nails in their coffins This is my story you cannot erase You won't find me in the past life Fighting for a breath I'm only looking forward I'm not running away Fight off all my demons Put nails in their coffins This is my story you cannot erase So grab your tails and your suit This red carpet's for you Here's your accolade for Best role in best song too Your bad habits came from me Chosen like the prophecy That you spin when the fire returns to you You lash out when you're to blame Barely speak when you're okay But the minute I fall I have gone insane Always counting down the days Till you finally push away Everything I have worked so hard to reclaim You won't find me in the past life Fighting for a breath I'm only looking forward I'm not running away Fight off all my demons Put nails in their coffins This is my story you cannot erase You won't find me in the past life Fighting for a breath I'm only looking forward I'm not running away Fight off all my demons Put nails in their coffins This is my story you cannot erase Shit

Perfect
To Breathe Again
It's 3 a.m. and I'm panicking Tryna find a way to navigate Not trying to cause an explosion But all these thoughts are intrusive Sick of being all gas just for everyone to break No plan for what's next Guess I'll make that mistake When I come to it Just tired of all the bullshit It's a green light So why haven't we made a move It's too late to be too soon Not into being tied down Can't stand being chained to the ground If I am all or nothing Then I just need something to do Somewhere to go A chance to prove what I already know I might not be perfect But at least I can show I'm worth it Spent years trying to put together Something I'm proud to remember Had to make sure everything was just right Didn't want a half-ass - full tilt till I die Calculate every move that I make And prepare to fall Right down on my face If I hadn't been afraid I couldn't say I did this They all laughed when I was talking up my game But when I'm dead, they'll remember my name I'm ready to cut all my ties Ready to throw everything away If that's the game you wanna play Pack your bags We've got something to do Somewhere to go A chance to prove what we already know We might not be perfect But at least we can show we're worth it La la la La la la La la la La la la la la La la la La la la La la la La la la la la Send it Everybody! Got there on 3 1 2 3 Got there La la la La la la La la la La la la la la La la la La la la La la la La la la la la Something to do Somewhere to go A chance to prove what we already know Yeah, we weren't perfect But would you say it was worth it La la la La la la La la la La la la la la
