What I’m listening to...


I'm so ashamed of my vicious problems
Keeping the worst of me all to myself
It's overwhelming, not ever telling
The ones I love that I gotta find help

Yeah, this is way too much, just give me the rush
Yeah, this is way too much

I'm done explaining my pain, this is way too much
I wanna feel euphoria, give me the rush
'Cause it's the last time that I romanticize
The riptide that's trying to drown me
Full of excuses for way too long
Don't wanna sing another hopeless song
'Cause it's the last time that I romanticize
The riptide, it's a riptide
 

She's as real as it gets and there ain't no way around it
There's a road that's been through hell and she's been down it
She's been mistreated, she's been lied to, she's seen her share of trouble
But that girl, she's the beauty in this trouble

'Cause she ain't all about herself
She ain't one to ask for help
She's that diamond that you find when you've been left behind
You're sifting through the rubble
Yeah, that girl, she's the beauty in the struggle
 


Settle down for a moment, 'cause your heart is beating hard
Baby, you've been my lover, and I told you from the start
Better no promises, and I'll do you no harm

But you're keen on the question I tell you not to pop
But maybe it's been a hurting, it's been hurting from the start
Do you not coping, then tear it apart

Never wanted it this way
Oh baby, I'm dying, I'm crying over it
Maybe you feel it too, oh baby, I'm blue

A barren winter came over and your mood was like a fire
Seven years and a summer, and you still sit there and cry
You're better without me, and you're one of a kind
 

The willow, it weeps today
A breeze from the distance is calling your name
Unfurl your black wings and wait
Across the horizon, it's coming to sweep you away
It's coming to sweep you away

Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird, fly away
May you never be broken again

The fragile cannot endure
The wrecked and the jaded, a place so impure
The static of this cruel world
Cause some birds to fly long before they've seen their day
Long before they've seen their day

Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird, fly away
May you never be broken again
Beyond the suffering you've known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken again
 
I don't feel this way... but I used to

Oh my god, wish I was dead
Wish I could turn off the noise in my head
Oh my god, wish I could breathe
Enough air in my lungs to muster a scream
Oh my god, wish I was numb
The weight on my back didn't feel like a ton
Oh my god, wish I could pray
Believe in the words your religions all say
 
I can't stop from sinning, my halo's just a hole
The deeper that I get inside you, the deeper you will fall
They say that God's a weapon, well, I'm a hand grenade
Try to take this ring from me, watch me detonate
You might as well bury me
 

Wrap me in a bolt of lightning
Send me on my way still smiling
Maybe that's the way I should go
Straight into the mouth of the unknown
I left the spare key on the table
Never really thought I'd be able
To say I merely visit on the weekends
I lost my whole life and a dear friend
I've said it so many times
I would change my ways, no, never mind
God knows I've tried


Call me a sinner, call me a saint
Tell me it's over, I'll still love you the same
Call me your favorite
Call me the worst
Tell me it's over, I don't want you to hurt
It's all that I can say
So I'll be on my way
 

All the years, I've tried with more to go
Will the memories die? I'm waiting
Will I find you? Can I find you?
We're falling down, I'm falling

Every time I'm falling down
All alone, I fall to pieces
Every time I'm falling down
All alone, I fall to pieces
 

With peace of mind so hard to find
We're dwelling on the drastic signs
Another way to numb our mind
And as you close your eyes tonight
And pray for a better life
You'll see it flying helplessly away


We've all been lost for most of this life (lost for most of this life)
Everywhere we turn more hatred surrounds us and
I know that most of us just ain't right (most of us just ain't right)
Following the wrong steps, being led by pride
