The Flood 03:02
Shallow minds and lovesick hearts never beating from the start Still taking shots from yesterday trying to make up for the games we play I'm drowning in this just like a flood it fills my lungs I'm giving up You keep telling me I'll be just fine but this shit happens all the time I'm finally seeing what's in front of me No more hiding from this I can't stand it help me sing this Darling i confess this flood is higher than the rest And I will do my best to keep my head above this There I was time I thought that I would look back on these days But when I do it's in disgust, I'll tell myself it's just a phase I left my home for this and you took it away, don't think you'll be missed I wish that you'd stay gone Locked doors no escape and now I'm gasping for air don't think for a second that I still care about you

Take Me Back 03:25
I always wondered how these things would turn out And where I'm gonna be I didn't think it'd really be this hard, in fact, I thought that it'd be easy I told myself that things would change That faith and hope would find a way But I still stand here waiting for that day Take me back to the times that were easy Take me back cause life is getting hard Take me back cause I'm scared to fall Take me back before I have nothing, nothing at all Remember when everything was just a game? But this game turned out unfair When we could stay out all night, it didn't matter cause we didn't care We used to say we're having fun but look where we are now The games have just begun and i have nowhere to run Oh please help me someone save me it's not easy I need to run away I need to figure this shit out I hate this mess we made but we made it somehow I made a huge mistake I went left instead of right I fear I don't belong here this burning feeling inside I used to push away the ones that mattered but I never understood I had to realize I was wrong in the end you're nothing good I tell myself that I have changed my faith and hope have found a way Now I can move on from those weary day

It's not the first time I've been the bad guy The sad part is I'm getting used to it now Happiness becomes over rated You're everything that I've ever hated Step back, give me some space So just in case you fall from grace I won't be there to catch you while you shake I'll be waiting for your back to break Suck it up walk it off like it never happened at all And now your backs against the wall so you're begging to come home Take it back watch your step and try to stay in line I won't save you again this time I'll take the cheapshot of the year Tell me what I have to do to get through to you After everything you already put me through Who am I to be your perfect alibi? Who am I t be the truth beneath your lies? I'm bending, you're breaking I'm giving, you're taking I'm running, you're crawling I'm singing, you're falling down Your grace is gone and there's nowhere to hide now Curtains fall, lights dim, take your final bow You played your role there was never an encore Exit left to no roses at your door Soon enough you'll never hear from me I'll just be part of your memories Tell you're friends that I'm the one to blame All that pain with nothing left to gain

Everyone's talking all around me but I can't seem to hear a sound These words are stuck inside my head just begging for me to let them out Now I'm all alone in a crowded room the walls are covered in pictures of you I'd break them down but it'd break me too Here we go again your head in the clouds and your feet in the sand It's all or nothing baby come on and take my hand what a tragedy your majesty it's getting harder and harder to breath Won't you come back with me Back when we were Royalty I dream of the day when you realize just what you did to me You fall to your knees and tell me how you're truly sorry The more you see the more you forget I always put you above the rest Between you and me there's nothing left
5.
I used to think my life was perfect when we were together Why were we together again? I kept a closed mind I painted a picture of our perfect future But I'll never paint it again Tell me something I'll remember I'll never forget the way you called my name Somethings can't be replaced but somethings they will never be the same Don't tell me You've changed at all That's okay I'm better without you You cheat, you lied please tell me why I ever cared or even tried I'm done with holding on It's time to let you go I have a hold on things I'm done with listening to all your cries So all I have to say to you this time it's goodbye I'd say that I want you back but I can't say that cause I'd be lying I know you secretly regret it I won't let you forget it I'll make sure you know that Please tell me you're going home That's okay I'm better without you I'm better Without you
