I've done it again I've rushed into it I can't seem to quit I'm losing my wit I can't read my own mind If only I could wait And get out of this state My mind's been hangin' in And get some perspective I'd take back my own mind Whoa I wish that it were easy I don't wanna do What I know I've gotta do But that's what keeps it even (But that's what gives it meaning) The harder that I try The less that I can hide The feelings that I find Are causing these problems No I don't think I'll be fine I need to get a grip My bearings have been flipped A loss of all control And now I'm falling downward I'm waiting for an answer
2.
I wake up You're not there I can't sleep So I lay and stare I hear you In my head I inhale Every word you said V2 (I walk around like I'm ok) (I walk around like it's all ok) Wait, wait I didn't know you would go And leave me down here on my Own, oh Everything has to go on Without you, oh my weary soul
3.
All the time That we spend Worrying about the end Makes us all Unaware Of the place we’re living it If you go Before I go Will you save a space for me Every day That I wait I'll be living patiently When I was young I was told "Don't buy in to what you're sold" I took my time Figured out Life is faith and life is doubt I watched my friends Desert their souls And saw them drifting off alone One day the tension From the hole Inside their heart will bring them home We're living with the dying But we just leave them lying alone We're living with the dying Let's give them what they're dying to find
4.
Let me first say that I'm sorry You know you know I don't want it this way I tried to have a conversation But found you had nothing to say I'm still tryin' to be your friend now But you but you You just walked away No I don't want to But I think I have to No I don't want to Let this end But what else can I do Ohh It's dead and gone Ohh time for movie’ on Let me take a step back now I don't I don't I don't like what I see The situation's gone downhill And how could you do this to me I'm not here to be your friend I just want you to leave We just don't see eye to eye That's just how it's gonna be
5.
If I would tell you I'm a good man It would only be a lie I've got rebellion Buried deep down In the spaces of my mind I'm waging wars and Fighting battles For the thoughts inside my head I wanna do good But I only End up doing bad instead I, I, I Got a weight, weight, weight It's bearing down, down , down on my soul I, I, I Gotta fight, fight, fight it Gotta get, get, get control What a wretched man that I Have become Who will rescue me from my Web I've spun I’m not right But I keep trying

Pass Me By 03:50
When I woke this morning And I looked outside my door Saw the sun was shining When I breathed the air and Filled my lungs with oxygen I was grateful for it All the times I should have died But I'm glad to be alive I have crossed the country In a van with my best friends And I wouldn't trade it I've had times of comfort Been through days of constant pain Cherished every minute There's been good and there's been bad But I'm better for it Every day That goes by I've got one thing on my mind What a gift My own life It won't ever pass me by
