Displaced 03:04
The bedroom walls are closing in each time I picture how life could have been back then. But now I want a brand new start hopelessly clamoring to feed that dying flame, move away and take the opportunity to stop this slow decay I saw shade in their colors (Stifling me) Overwhelmed and outnumbered (Take me away) From the weight and the pressure (Weight and the pressure) It keeps pulling me under And one by one I told them all The plans I made last night with- Out a second thought. But in return, they retaliate With uninvited lessons, Hoping to persuade me to stay I'll take the opportunity to Stop this slow decay I saw shade in their colors (Stifling me) Overwhelmed and outnumbered (Take me away) From the weight and the pressure (Weight and the pressure) It keeps pulling me under All these naysayers Who I thought were my friends Telling me I'll burn out in half a year Save your breath for when You retire ’Cause at least I'm alive While you might as well be dead I saw shade in their colors (Stifling me) Overwhelmed and outnumbered (Take me away) From the weight and the pressure (Weight and the pressure) It keeps pulling me under

10 years ago, we had a dream Why did it end so abruptly? Our never-ending conversations Stranded in the cold meant nothing Truth is, I always thought We'd be there till the end together Naive delusions and A personality self-centered You make me sick all the time With that look in your eye Unaware of all your ignorance, you Lack the nerve to say you're sorry Saying these lines Without questioning why or what the Consequences would be So just cut the ties and leave me buried In present-day, tension is stretched To the point of no return Arguments tearing at the seams You never listen, never learn You make me sick all the time With that look in your eye Unaware of all your ignorance, you Lack the nerve to say you're sorry Saying these lines Without questioning why or what the Consequences would be So just cut the ties and leave me buried Underneath the weight I carried Leave me buried Underneath Outside Standing in the California air I’m free You and I were never meant to be Open up your mind and you will see You make me sick all the time With that look in your eye Unaware of all your ignorance, you Lack the nerve to say you're sorry Saying these lines Without questioning why or what the Consequences would be So just cut the ties and leave me buried Underneath the weight I carried Leave me buried Underneath

Take Care 03:30
I swear On the presence of these feelings I apologize for leaving The best I never had Take care That you live the life you're leading While I'm forever healing And wishing I was back Falling from the sky just like a bird without its wings I try to grasp at anything for one more chance to sing A song about a person unlike any of that I found I mustered up the strength to sing a note before I hit the Ground Memories flashing back all at once Getting caught in between the nights under palmetto trees And bedroom eyes locking into place But now the tears won’t dry when I think of what could’ve been my life I swear On the presence of these feelings I apologize for leaving The best I never had Take care That you live the life you're leading While I'm forever healing And wishing I was Back Distracting myself isn’t as easy As I thought it’d be, I’m pulled in by the gravity Of your design, calling out to tell you For the second time, but we both know how this will end tonight I swear On the presence of these feelings I apologize for leaving The best I never had Take care That you live the life you're leading While I'm forever healing And wishing I was Back to when we met each other (So I can avoid this blunder) Choosing now to move away (Regretting every single day) Having to accept this life (Cutting like a thousand knives) Living with the realization (I fucked up the situation) That we could’ve spent each night (Sleeping by each other’s side) So entwined by wrapping arms (Feel the beating of our hearts) As we’d be safe and secure (With no worries in the world) Nothing but a fading dream (Now that you are far from me) I swear On the presence of these feelings I apologize for leaving The best I never...

Coastlines 03:54
Let me drive On the coastline of a west coast summer Leave me where I belong They say the grass is greener on the other side That's where I want to be Giving up comfort and security is worth a try If this is destiny All that I need to do is have the guts to leave Let me drive On the coastline of a West Coast summer Leave me where I belong Chasing signs And the dashed lines and the mile markers Leave me where I belong Reminiscing on winding roads of the old times From birth to 23 I finished packing but I still have space inside my mind For future memories Another chapter will unfold in front of me Let me drive On the coastline of a West Coast summer Leave me where I belong Chasing signs And the dashed lines and the mile markers Leave me where I belong I took a risk and made a choice I hope it wasn't wrong Even if I fail I know I am not afraid to move on I'm moving on (I'm moving on) Not giving up till I'm satisfied Of all that I've been through (I'm moving on) Not giving up till I live my life The way that I want to Let me drive On the coastline of a West Coast summer Leave me where I belong Chasing signs And the dashed lines and the mile markers Leave me where I belong Leave me where I belong Leave me where I belong
