Choke Artist 03:39
lyrics
I can hear you grinding your teeth down to the gum Squeezing tight, your fingers, they must be numb This isn't about you It's about who you thought I would be I can feel your heartbeat I can feel it from a mile away It drives you crazy that I'm getting up again Standing taller after each time I fall You Can't change me I'm never breaking down I know who I am and this is where I belong Guess what, I'm not going anywhere I'm staying just to watch you fold When you find yourself face down in the dirt tell me Well how does it taste? How does this taste? It drives you crazy that I'm getting up again Standing taller after each time I fall You Can't change me I'm never breaking down I know who I am and this is where I belong It drives you crazy that I'm getting up again Standing taller after each time I fall You Can't change me I'm never breaking down I know who I am and this is where I belong I can feel your heartbeat I can feel it from a mile away I may have fallen more times than you But you're a coward you know it's the truth I may have fallen more times than you But you're a coward you know it's the truth I may have fallen more times than you But you're a coward you know it's the truth It drives you crazy that I'm getting up again Standing taller after each time I fall You Can't change me I'm never breaking down I know who I am and this is where I belong It drives you crazy that I'm getting up again Standing taller after each time I fall You Can't change me I'm never breaking down I know who I am and this is where I belong

Winners Always Quit 03:13
lyrics
I can't fight this I gotta get away Nothing changes when I close my eyes I can't keep on living this way And If I see your face again I hope I can stay away from you Please just go away She's so good At making me shake the way she takes my breath away I can feel her coursing through my veins I'm giving up just not the way that you think I'm sick of lying always tired never getting sleep I think I'm loosing my mind I'm gonna be fine Hey! Hey! Hey! I'm gonna be fine Hey! Hey! Hey! I'm gonna be, I wanna be fine Let go we're breathing deep These monsters never sleep (they never sleep) They take away everything (take away) You could ever be If you ever leave promise you'll never leave I could stay in this place forever with you (with you) Just tell me you need this too I'm giving up just not the way that you think I'm sick of lying always tired never getting sleep I think I'm loosing my mind I'm gonna be fine Hey! Hey! Hey! I'm gonna be fine Hey! Hey! Hey! I'm gonna be, I wanna be fine From all the memories we made From all the memories we made As the flames rise high I set a fire with your name I'm giving up just not the way that you think I think I'm loosing my mind I'm gonna be fine I'm giving up just not the way that you think I'm sick of lying always tired never getting sleep I think I'm loosing my mind I'm gonna be fine Hey! Hey! Hey! I'm gonna be fine Hey! Hey! Hey! I'm gonna be, I wanna be fine

Remember When 02:45
lyrics
I've given up I just can't take it anymore This empty room is killing me When you're walking out that door I used to think Things would be okay I simple smile meant You'd wanna stay But I was wrong and I know I need you here Stay a little bit longer Don't disappear Don't disappear This is my only regret I left my heart with you Did this to myself I've come unglued Now time is my only true friend Told myself "I won't do this again" Keep swimming and staying afloat with me Now I'm breathing on my own Remember when We would stare for days and talk about the life we would make Nothing seemed to get in the way Remember when we would just hold hands and everything we did always made sense the hardest part about life is paying rent I can't let you go I'm just afraid of moving on I can't let you go Was it wrong? was it right? I took a chance and let you go Now I'm paying the price How could I have known? This is my only regret I left my heart with you Did this to myself I've come unglued Now time is my only true friend Told myself "I won't do this again" Keep swimming and staying afloat with me How could I have known? I can't let you go This is my only regret I left my heart with you Did this to myself I've come unglued Now time is my only true friend Told myself "I won't do this again" Keep swimming and staying afloat with me

Against the Ropes 02:43
lyrics
Wake up, Wake up, I see the enemy Get up, Get up No time for apathy We can't fight if our arms are tied down By the ones who think that they know how Look around and see the flames extinguished By their lies We're dying slowly without knowing how Stand up and be the one Be the one Wake up and feel the sun Run, don't run, don't run away We won't live to fight another day All I know is this is all we have All we have We'll stand, we'll fall, we'll carry the call Pour the hope inside us all Living for the truth that sets us free I'll hold you up I won't let you go Don't give up Don't let the world steal you soul So light the fires and light the sky We'll watch the flames as they rise high As they rise know this (know this) We won't go away We are all we hope to be let go and let your life be free designed for more than this we'll set the world free we are all we hope to be we are all we hope to be So light the fires and light the sky We'll watch the flames as they rise high (we are all we hope to be) As they rise know this We won't go away(we are all we hope to be) We won't go away We won't go away

Letters (From a Hopeful Romantic) 02:36
lyrics
Every time you told me lies It reminded me of the moonlight When I look back did we really try but It doesn't matter no more, It doesn't matter no more If we try to analyze what hides behind your hazel eyes Maybe we'll find just what we've been looking for Maybe we'll find just what we've been looking for If we were young then What are we doing here? We shouldn't be here again Wasting this life taking our time I think it's time to go It was never right I should have never gambled With your heart on line I think I really messed up this time This is me looking at back at you And all the things that make this right I will never forget the night of our last fight 'Cause I found me and it's not with you It pains me to say this truth Together we fall Together we fall apart The worst of me's when I'm with you It was never right I should have never gambled With your heart on line I think I really messed up this time If we were young then What are we doing here? We shouldn't be here again Wasting this life taking our time I think it's time to go If we were young then What are we doing here? We shouldn't be here again Wasting this life taking our time I think it's time to go What I'm sayin' Not gonna stand here to watch you drown I'm gonna plant my feet on solid ground (you think I wanted this?) So why you're choking I'll stand here broken Sorry to say it's time to go

The Villain 02:49
lyrics
I know what makes me free and I know what fractures me I never want to be the hope of Everything that you can't see I'm giving all I can Some twisted form of Superman Instead of flying high above it all I'm dying in the mud that Caught my fall You say stand taller and I can do this by myself But lately I'm falling, can't get up I'm barely crawling And don't let go I won't be afraid To hold you close and not push away All the hopes and dreams of life I had This heart of a broken man I push through, I always push through There isn't any other way On down this one way road and you (we push through, we always push through) I'll see you another day Don't rely on me 'cause all I am is me You say stand taller and I can do this by myself But lately I'm falling, can't get up I'm barely crawling And don't let go I won't be afraid To hold you close and not push away All the hopes and dreams of life I had This heart of a broken man Just walk away Walk away I tear my heart in every way Just to hear you say Don't need your sympathy It come to this All I am is me You say stand taller and I can do this by myself But lately I'm falling, can't get up I'm barely crawling And Don't let go I won't be afraid To hold you close and not push away All the hopes and dreams of life I had This heart of a broken man

Bandits 02:14
lyrics
Killing me the way you walk around Can't be shown in order to be found Your life starts with you The game is up It's great to know You're thinking for yourself If it's effortless then Your bragging rights are dead to me Post it up, hit it up Claim you short time ticket to fame But one day they'll ask what and who you are Who are you? It's pathetic that you said it but now that you get it I know you regret it I'm never changing my mind You can hold out hope We're on another road Out of town Killing me the way you walk around Can't be shown in order to be found Your life starts with you The game is up We stand we fight we are alive We hope we bleed from the inside Don't feel alone we'll make a moment from this Hold tight and don't let go We only have this time to pass us by Can't let these day go by Don't walk away from me I'm never backing down Killing me the way you walk around Can't be shown in order to be found Your life starts with you The game is up You're playing games I don't have the time To listen to all of the things that you're crying about Save me from all these pointless debates It starts with you
