II. For What It’s Worth
yeah I’m the best, the best at holding on
and you know, the worst at letting go
i cant believe this is the life i lead
and I'm still surprised you have no faith in me
i know my searching for my purpose has taken time
well its not a thing thats easily defined
hypocrite, you know your in that same boat
but still you thought you could cast the first stone
for once it falls on you to follow through (cliche)
cause this cowardice is just not suiting you.
(for once you'll swallow pride or
see i was not a fool to fall for your lies, you were wise to hide you know i can read those eyes
every lie you've told grew more absurd more bold
the distance you create will come around around when were both old .
the wounds that you left still sting
my life is now a phone that never rings
im just trying to do my best
to survive and thrive through this mess
but its so hard sometimes to see
a future where your not afraid to be seen.
what happens now that its gone?
you moved, i cant say you moved on
i wish i hadn't read you like a book all along
and to think i used to think of you as strong
but i just keep saying i made it through the war
i can help to help but its you who'll choose a door
every day i wake to fight once more
and I'm alone again when i needed the support
unfortunate the only news to report
this is my last of last resorts
soon enough you'll realize the score
i swear life is so god damn short!
this misery is killing me
im questioning what i believe
this miserys controlling me
i fuckin let you close to me
yeah well misery is not who i will be
i chose
but this misery is history
you were meant to see the future next to me

III. I Woke Up
i woke up
i wanted to tell you everything
so i rose up, but i went to the kitchen
hiding from problems i probably made up, savoring time sharing one single cup
but its time
i woke up
today id tell you everything
my throat dried up
and i didn't say a word
i knew there was something that i could do to change
all the parts of my life i left un-arranged
but its fine
i woke up
today i had to tell you everything
you broke my heart
i was helpless to fight
id do what it takes to make it alright
there is a difference in talking or having a fight
and i knew it was time
time to grow up
and i knew it was time
for you to grow up
and i knew it was time
that we grew up
and i knew it was time
that i grew up, time i grew up
yeah i knew it was time i grew up
i knew it was time for me to grow up, for me to grow up
for me to grow….up.yeah i knew

IV. 24 Years

24 years ago i opened my eyes, and no one yet told me one day i would die.
so much promise, so much inside//seeing the world through two clear eyes
and then i got older i saw things as they are //i looked in those lives that i passed by in cars//see people aren’t evil but i cant say they’re good
i cant even say we all do what we should//no i cant even say//that we all
no i cant even say//we do what i should at all
and if i could meet you, id tell you the truth
the core of a man is made in his youth
yeah if i could meet you id say the straight truth
we all do our best to hang on to youth
we all do our best
just to hang on.
cause youths never ending if you play your cards right//sleep through the days and go out at night//in youth things are hazy but you know they could be bright//but if you think the opposite you'll still be right
your words are like arrows they won't stop till they stick//and once they are loosed who knows who they'll hit
i believe in facing problems head on like a man
and even as i tell you im not sure that i can
no im not even sure
i can
i said no im not even sure
i can say that im a man at all
and if i could meet you id tell you the truth
the core of a man is made in his youth
yeah if i could meet you and say the straight truth
we all do our best to hang on to youth
we all do our best
just to…
the road to hell is paved with good intentions
but i guess they're not paved on the way to heaven
and if i could meet you id tell you the truth
the core of a man is made in his youth
yeah if i could meet you and say the straight truth
we all do our best to hang on to youth
we all do our best (just to hang on)

V. Blood, Mother, Earth
all this talk just makes life feel less real
my head is swimming in the thoughts untamed

who told you that?
who told you
earth is water? blood and mother earth?
blood and mother earth
i kept my hands off of the things you birthed
blood and mother earth
i swear to god i gave a fuck at first
blood and mother earth
blood and mother earth
blood and mother earth
i got my head sewn on
i got my head sewn on
i got my head sewn on backwards
how do i get it back? i got my head
sewn on. i got my head sewn on
backwards how do i get it back?
how do i get it back? my head
how do i get it back? my head
how do i get it back?
i had my head sewn on backwards how do i get it right?
i had my head sewn on backwards
yeah my heads not right

and i need to show you
the middle of the world
the middle of the world is churning
the middle of the world
churning turning
the middle of the world is turning baby please
forward
its churning girl, its turning churning faster now
turning turning
and i cant, i cant no
i cant stop now
i’ve got one more year
before i move on
i’m in this game of chess and stuck as the pawn
cause punching clock just ain’t no way to be
i gotta find something pure, something pure for me
and i said
just please
can you help me?
just please?
well alright!
just please?
can you help me?
just please.

VIII. Unresolved
something was hidden in your smile
caught like a reflection on the water
i see your face in hers
your fathers only daughter
you said you were cold
and i told you that you could go
so maybe i sold out
but who would know?
who would know?
who would know
who would know
and who would know the things we keep beneath the sheets
and who can see past the glass that hides this part of me?
and how did i end up inside this picture of
my life?
im stuck inside with the winds that raged yeah the winds that swept me away i said the winds that swept me away, you were the wind that swept me away i swear to god i meant it
so now im on my own
(and) i feel so far from home
i guess i never really knew
just how hard i fell for you
i see now that we were lost
if you just gave up and you forgot
you can keep the memories
the hollow words and sympathies
the worst is i couldn't tell
you’d replaced me with someone else
you made me into what im not
but i still gave you as good as i got
as good as i got
and who would know the things we keep beneath the sheets
and who can see past the glass that hides this part of me?
and how did i end up inside this picture of my life?
im stuck inside with the winds that raged yeah the winds that swept me away i said the winds that swept me away, you were the wind that swept me away i swear to god

IX— At the Gates of Old
at the gates of old
we draw our swords and wait
blood flows
no time for words now
flocks flown
our stand is made here
thunder grows
at the gates of old
untold
reign from hell, foretold
face the ocean
and embrace the swell
fire and fury
wood and rock and bone
time of madness
friends who've fallen down
count our losses
at the gates of old
armor shines, in the field, reflections hanging in our shields
time moves slow, hard to know,
whats become of whats been?
fire and fury
wood and rock and bone
time of madness
friends who've fallen down
we count our losses
at the gates of old
At the Gates of Old—-

XI. (Never)Quick Enough
what or what came and went but i said no
to go, and girl by now you oughta know
to the sea, just to see, you deceive me
i gave you all, i gave you all you needed to be
cause i trusted, i trusted you to trust me
and i never thought id have to watch my back against you
nothing I've ever said has ever been less true
turns out you were the one i had to watch the whole time
i know this mess and wreckage looks like mine but i swear to god its not mine, its not mine, its not mine i said its everywhere!
and i just needed to keep you closer
but i couldn't keep you close enough
