Haunted Without You
02:34

All I hear is noise
Drowning out the trail of your voice
I live my life haunted
I live my life haunted
Without you
I live my life haunted
I live my life haunted
Without you here with me
Time to change
Has come and gone
Stuck in this moment I can’t move on
I live my life haunted
I live my life haunted
Without you
I live my life haunted
I live my life haunted
Without you here with me

Get what you’re owed

Go
Go back to 97
Go
Go back broke
Run back
Run
Run back

Run back
Run back

Narnia
02:21
|

|
When we were just boys
We had big imaginations
We played after school
We didn’t care that we weren’t cool
But then one day we changed
The blindfolds fell away
You and Me weren’t friends anymore
We went our separate ways
Oh how I cried
At the changing of our world
You left me behind
Taking with you my peace of mind
And on that day I changed
My innocence betrayed
You and me don’t speak anymore
Forever walking away

In my car I don’t give a fuck
Windows down and the volume up
Got Alice in Chains and Depeche Mode too
My life goes on and on and on
My life goes on and on and on
But I keep listening to the same old song
Back of the mall we shared a smoke
Marlboro lights and a diet coke
If I knew now what I new then
My life drags on and on and on
My life drags on and on and on
But I keep listening to the same old song
In that car it meant so much to me
In that car is where I wanna be
Please take me back I want to go back

Accutane
02:04
|
|||
|
I was on accutane
Heart on sleeve when did I change
We were young and naive
Denied our god we felt so free
Below the water we couldn’t see
The impending tragedies
We lost our faith
First you then me
Tried to fill the void endlessly
You and me together
You and me forever
You and me were wrong
Time has past
Where did you go
What you’ve seen I’ll never know
We haven’t spoke
In many years
A hardened heart replaced the tears
Time speeds up
And now I’m old
You passed away or so I’m told
We had it right so long ago
I never should have let you go
You and me together
You and me forever
You and me were wrong

His name was Jay
I knew him way back when
He was my friend
Back when I didn’t have many of them
Oooohhhhhhh ohhhh
Ooooohhhhhh You were gone way too soon
Oooohhhhhhh ohhhh
Ooooohhhhhh I still remember you
His name was Blake
Had a brother looked just like him
When the bullies came
He stood right beside me
Oooohhhhhhh ohhhh
Ooooohhhhhh You were gone way too soon
Oooohhhhhhh ohhhh
Ooooohhhhhh I still remember you
His name was Ken
He could draw with the best of them
In after care
Showed me how to be a good friend
Oooohhhhhhh ohhhh
Ooooohhhhhh You were gone way too soon
Oooohhhhhhh ohhhh
Ooooohhhhhh I still remember you

Dazzle me with lights and sounds
Keep me under your gaze
I’ll be loyal to you
On my side for the rest of my days
Please please keep me entertained
Please please hold me in your gaze
Trick me with silicone magic
Keep me starved and weak
I’ll always return to you
The only god that I seek
Please please keep me entertained
Please please hold me in your gaze
Trick me with lights and sounds

Hijack My Brain
01:46
|
|||
|
My brain is fucked
And I don’t know what to do
I’m ruined neurochemically without you
I’m so fucked
And I don’t think I can move
Hijack my brain is what you do
I can’t get you out of mind
It trails me like footprints left behind
And I beg you to stop
And I beg you

Dry
02:55
|
|||
|
I hadn't realized
Just how dry I lived
A common mistake
A lack of perspective
I stared at the sun
Until I couldn’t see
The waves I was feeling
Were just sand beneath my feet
And I made a mistake
Please save me from myself
I’m tired of living for no one else
And my bullshit has got to stop
I woke from my dream
And shook off what I’d seen
Stubborn in my ways
My life went on repeat
Please save me from myself
I’m tired of living for no one else
And my bullshit has got to stop

Doubts remain
But faith returns
Like light under the door
Please please please let me believe
Oh please please let me believe
Doubt remains
But faith finds a way
