The legs I’ve got, they’re all my own
My eye's a coin that reflects the sun
Running through the green and I see your promise
You start the chase and it’s all in fun
Until I realize you’ve got the gun
You close your eyes because I’m the fool now
Picture a scene that I see in my dreams
And I can see it’s not as good as it seems
You tell a lie that’s fully masked in truth
You start the chase and it’s all in fun
Until I realize you’ve got the gun
You close your eyes because I’m the fool now
Give me a time, give me a place
Another chance that I know I’ll waste
Our path’s a circle but still, I'm hoping
We’re all guilty being pursued stock
It’s hard to walk when you only talk for talk
Chalk it up to all your lying and living
You care too much, or none at all
But can you realize it’s all your fault?
Your aim is sharp and I’m a fish in a barrel
Give me a time, give me a place
Another chance that I know I’ll waste
Our path’s a circle but still, I'm hoping
Now I’m a pile of bone and dust
A product of your untruthful trust
My legs are yours and now I’m taken over
You end the chase, you’ve had your fun
And now I realized you’ve always won
Open your eyes because I’m the fool now
Give me a time, give me a place
Another chance that i know I’ll waste
Our path’s a circle but still, I'm hoping

Losing Streak
02:55
|

I'm feeling weary
I pushed myself too far, this time
I'm on a losing streak
I'm on a losing streak and I'm falling apart
The life I'm leading is a dangerous thing
I'm losing myself and I'm killing my brain
I can't take this for another day
My breaking point's nearing
I'm being followed
I'm being dragged around in my body
My mind is going insane
My mind is going insane and I'm falling apart
The life I'm leading is a dangerous thing
I'm losing myself and I'm killing my brain
I can't take this for another day
My breaking point's nearing
I'm on a losing streak
I'm on a losing streak and I'm falling apart
(Fool myself one time, shame on me
Fool myself two times, I'm falling apart
Fool myself three times, breaking point
Fool myself three times and I'm falling apart)
The life I'm leading is a dangerous thing
I'm losing myself and I'm killing my brain
I can't take this for another day
My breaking point's nearing

Allison, be knowin'
You really got me goin'
I saw you sing your songs to make me cry
Allison, she's older
I wish I could have told her
How far she really made it in my heart
And maybe one day our paths will meet
She's got a cooler boyfriend
Who sings and plays guitar
She hides away from all those paparazzi motherfuckers
She'll never know it
She's really got me goin'
The sparkles in her eyes look like a star
And maybe one day I'll be the one you sing about
And maybe she could take me out
Allison, be knowin'
You really got me goin'
I saw you sing your songs to make me cry
Allison, she's older
I wish I could have told her
How far she really made it in my heart
Oh, baby, you gave me a fucking heart attack
And maybe we could be friends with no strings attached
Allison, be knowin'
You really got me goin'
I saw you sing your songs to make me cry
Allison, she's older
I wish I could have told her
How far she really made it in my heart

You told me yesterday that I was not the one you want
But you regretted it, something that I had never thought
You closed your eyes and by now I had left you for the stairs
Mistakes were present but I never really seemed to care
When the sun sets, you bet I’m going down
And then your eyes said “you know what I am thinking and I know you’re thinking the same thing”
Your lies are petty and you do it just to drive me mad
A circumstance that seemed familiar, one that we once had
Your eyes are pretty, pull me in, send fire through my bones
And if you kiss me, I’ll tell you everything you don’t know
When the sun sets, you bet I’m going down
And then your eyes said “you know what I am thinking and I know you’re thinking the same thing”
And your eyes fade, that’s when the lies change
And when the lies change all bets are off and I think I know what you'll say
When the sun sets, you bet I’m going down
And then your eyes said “you know what I am thinking and I know you’re thinking the same thing”

Show me clearly what it is you need
Kiss me sweetly, weakening my knees
Give me your problems
I'll die just to solve them
You know that I could not lie
Your effortless beauty
Your hands that could do me
No harm I've not got inside
Feel my feelings and waste away with me
Hold me softly and tell me love finds a way
The night that I left home
Stayed out 'till tomorrow
The rain froze inside my heart
Your vices and virtues
I'd die just to hold you
The end's not far from the start

Why won't you just talk to me?
Now I'm starting to feel the heat
I've got these voices inside my head
Who never listen to what I say
You said you'd promise to get better
But now that's starting to drag me under
I love you too much to let you go
Because I know I'm nothing on my own
Don't be a cheat
You know it fuels my insecurity
I'm starting to see
You give me something that I've never had before
You said you feel like shit
And I can see that you're starting to prove it
You give me everything that I've ever wanted
Because you're the only thing that I ever want
Don't be a cheat
You know it fuels my insecurity
I'm starting to see
You give me something that I've never had before

I cry sometimes when it hurts
There's never a feeling that it worked
I try sometimes just to see
What if you had loved me?
There’s never a feeling
I think I'm in need and
You tell me you’re waiting
But I’m never going back
You never knew that you were wrong
It all worked out and got along
Took so long for you to see
I never knew that you loved me
I know that you’re feeling
I know you’re believing
You better be seeing
That I’m never going back there
I cry sometimes and it hurts
My blood and hope is in the dirt
Tried to hard just to see
The reason you never loved me
There’s never a feeling
I think I'm in need and
You tell me you’re waiting
But I’m never going back there

I’m looking for something that I know I’ll never find
I wake up for bedtime and the day stays up all night
Your voice, it dilutes me and it fills me up inside
I ran away shaking but now I’ve got to be alright
You’re becoming a person, I never thought I’d see the day
My state of immersion no longer stands the one to blame
My brothers, my sisters, we drink a blood that toxicates
My weapon of coping burns as it’s going up in flames
I don’t know why you lie to my eyes
When you know I cry all night
I can’t decide if you have tried
To fix all the pain in my life
A crystal push needle holds the scriptures on my walls
Stops me from wondering if my fingers could be claws
My mother, my father, they gave their best shot at it all
A bundle of impressions, it’s gotta be my fucking fault
I don’t know why you lie to my eyes
When you know I cry all night
I can’t decide if you have tried
To fix all the pain in my life
My heart denies a hand that tries
To reach out and cleanse my life
I’ll never try to change my life
Where would i be if you had never lied?
I don’t know why you lie to my eyes
When you know I cry all night
I can’t decide if you have tried
To fix all the pain in my life

High Beach

You’ve got a ticket to ride
A bonafide child to hide
Shy to my eyes and clear to my mind
I asked you but you said you’ve tried
Spent a year around the bend
Figured you were always a friend
Got glass, still could never see
You wanted to take me to high beach
I gave her to my brother
A guaranteed plan to suffer
She was there and over the summer
Found out one way or another
Spent a year around the bend
Figured you were always a friend
Needed glass, still could never see
You wanted to take me to high beach
Spent a year around the bend
Figured you were always a friend
Needed glass just to see
You wanted to take me to high beach
Blown and blown again
Shown and shown again
Around and round again
Bound and wound again
Spent a year around the bend
Figured you were always a friend
Needed glass, still could never see
You wanted to take me to high beach

Take my bones
Take my eyes
Take my blood
Take my life
Take my veins
Take my skin
Take my lips
Take my limbs
I’ve got a knack of destroying beauty
The ones I love who are never deserving
I need to start over and turn my short life around
Another start to give back more than what I’ve found
Take my hope
Take my joy
Take my peace
Take my love
Take my friends
Take mom and dad
Take everything
That I’ve ever had
I’ve got a knack of destroying beauty
The ones I love who are never deserving
I need to start over and turn my short life around
Another start to give back more than what I’ve found
I’m on my way
To fix my minds hate
I’m turning back on all
The pain that i made
Please tell my mother
Please tell my father
I’ve made a mess
And I’m picking up all the weight
I’ve got a knack of destroying beauty
The ones I love who are never deserving
I need to start over and turn my short life around
Another start to give back more than what I’ve found
