Break Me Down

Break me down so I see what I'm made of
Break me down, feel the pain we're afraid of
Do you feel me now, do you feel me now
I won't say that you live in a lie
I don't care if I'm gonna survive this
I won't say it's all okay
When you wake up, I may be gone
If we're using words but they're losing their meaning
Then how can we talk?
Am I losing you or getting lost again?
Break me down so I see what I'm made of
Break me down, Break me down
Break me down, feel the pain we're afraid of
Do you feel me now, do you feel me now?
Is this what we're supposed to be?
It's killing me!
I don't want to let this die
I don't want to let this die
There's no reason to burn that bridge
When our ship is already sinking
And we're both drowning
But I can't hold my breath no more
If we're using words but they're losing their meaning
Then how can we talk?
Am I losing you or getting lost again?
Break me down so I see what I'm made of
Break me down, break me down
Break me down, feel the pain we're afraid of
Do you feel me now, do you feel me now?
Do you feel me now?
Is this what we're supposed to be?
I don't want to let this die,
I don't want to let this die
Answer me, answer me
Why are you crying?
Answer me, Answer me
Why did we let this die?
Break me down so I see what I'm made of
Break me down, break me down
Break me down, feel the pain we're afraid of
Do you feel me now, do you feel me now?

You're so cool, I see you trying so hard
You're so cheap but you're still someone's credit card
What’s your number? Could you write it down for me?
I've done some math and something tells me
That you need a wake up call
Don't expect me to pay for your game
Thank you for the noise pollution you create
Annoying and loud it woke up the walking dead
Oh, zombies are looking for brains
But don't worry, you are safe
Zombies are looking for brains
You are safe
Zombies are looking for brains
Copycat, nobody's waiting for you
Dogs in hell sharpen their teeth to chew you
You never care, you know how to fake it
You never share, you love when you're taking
Want some, get none
I'm sick of you, sick of you, sick of you
Bitch, you better move
Bitch, you better move
Open up your mind before your damn mouth
A piece of cake you’re about to enjoy has expired
It's scary that you seem so goddamn ordinary
Too scary, so get the fuck out of my face
It's scary that you seem so goddamn ordinary
Too scary, stop trying to deal shit painted gold
Twinkle, twinkle, little shit,
Don't wanna be a part of it,
Twinkle, twinkle, little shit,
I don't care, get over it
Open up your mind before your damn mouth
A piece of cake you’re about to enjoy has expired
It's scary that you seem so goddamn ordinary
Too scary, so get the fuck out of my face
It's scary that you seem so goddamn ordinary
Too scary, stop trying to deal shit painted gold
It's scary that you seem so goddamn ordinary
Too scary, so get the fuck out of my face
It's scary that you seem so goddamn ordinary
Too scary, stop trying to deal shit painted gold

I don't need your compassion
I fall apart and I'm to blame
But I feel somehow masochistic
Trying to find comfort in my pain
My heart's on fire
Desperate desire
My heart's a liar
I'm gonna rip it out to watch it rot
I'm gonna rip it out just to watch it rot
I am done skipping beats for you
Do you fear tomorrow like I do?
Have you found another way to survive?
Do you see tomorrow through our history?
Do you fear tomorrow like I do?
Even though I am barely alive
This won't be my last breath
My mind's eating me alive
What a greedy little shit
So I buried all the feelings I got left
'Cause you can't kill,
'Cause you can't kill what's already dead
Watch me slowly fade away
Do you fear tomorrow like I do?
Have you found another way to survive?
Do you see tomorrow through our history?
Do you fear tomorrow like I do?
Even though I am barely alive
This won't be my last breath
Give me a reason to hate you
Do you fear tomorrow like I do?
Have you found another way to survive?
Do you see tomorrow through our history?
Do you fear tomorrow like I do?
Even though I am barely alive
This won't be my last breath

Good To Be Bad
03:45
|

Another night, I'm resetting my memory
Ready to make myself a joke again
I'm just looking for a single serving friend
but it's not working out as I'd planned
The knife I'm holding up to my neck
Makes me feel alive, makes me feel alive
the knife I'm holding up to my neck
Makes me believe a lie
That it feels good to be bad again, again, again
Feels good to be bad again, again, again
Feels good to be bad again, again, again
Just for tonight, for tonight, for tonight
Another morning in a room that doesn't feel like home
Another sign that I fucked up again
Struggle of the heart, the body and the brain
All these things look the same
When the world gets dark enough
So don't tell me to slow down,
My demons are faster than the one I'm riding on
Don't tell me to bite my tongue
I’ve been silent for too long
Don't tell me to bite my tongue
And rather lend me yours
My weaknesses have never been so strong
Being left in darkness never felt so wrong
My weaknesses have never been so strong
Being left in darkness never felt so wrong
My weaknesses have never been so strong
Being left in darkness never felt so wrong
Feels good to be bad again, again, again
Feels good to be bad again, again, again
Feels good to be bad again, again, again
Just for a night, for a night, for a night

Lost And Forgotten

Have you always wanted something else?
'Cause now you're just a memory that's tapping at my window
When I'm trying to sleep but my body is shaking
and it hurts me to see that you're not lying next to me
So look at me now
What do you see?
Am I the boy you want me to be?
Am I the man you've always wanted me to be?
So tell me I'm right, tell me I'm wrong
But you are the reason I'm writing this song
You were the only thing that kept me hanging on
Give me a sign
You left me finding yourself, finding yourself
Give me a sign
I lost you finding myself, finding myself
If words can hurt, silence kills
So let me freeze till we burn it all down
If words can hurt, silence kills
Silence kills
So look at me now
What do you see?
Am I the boy you want me to be?
Am I the man you've always wanted me to be?
So tell me I'm right, tell me I'm wrong
But you are the reason I'm writing this song
You were the only thing that kept me hanging on
This doesn't feel like home
Will you remember me?
Will you remember me?
Tell me, what do you see?
Who do you want me to be?
We just run in circles
Tell me, what do you see?
Who do you want me to be?
The room we used to share
Is now full of despair
So painful to be alone
Don’t leave me here tonight
This doesn't feel like home anymore
So painful to be alone
Too painful to be alone
Were you scared of what this could have been?
Were you scared of what this could have been?
Tell me, what do you see?
Who do you want me to be?
Who do you want me to be?
Have you always wanted something else?

The Dark Matters

Where should I begin?
I was looking down the abyss
Ready to give in
Choking on the darkness, full of doubts
What is wrong with me?
Wrong with me?
Another loner standing in my sight
Do you wanna stay with me?
Just stay with me
'Cause it feels like it's the end of the world
And it feels like you have nowhere to go
May I join you so you're not alone tonight?
The moon shines on our way
Two souls lost in space
We left our flesh on the ground
Ten thousand miles away
And we're not coming back
'Cause it feels like it's the end of the world
And it feels like you have nowhere to go
May I join you so you're not alone tonight?
Don't hesitate
I'll meet you on the other side
Don't throw away our resurrection
Now just don't hesitate to cut me open
Don't be afraid to feel again
'Cause it feels like it's the end of the world
And it feels like you have nowhere to go
May I join you so I'm not alone tonight?
'Cause it feels like it's the end of the world
And it feels like you have nowhere to go
May I join you so you're not alone tonight?

Return To Zero

Why did I end up on this road again
Heading nowhere fast till I crash my face
Already sowed the wind, I'm ready to reap the storm
Already sowed the wind, I'm ready to reap the storm
My heart, spoiled and greedy, never had enough
I didn't give it my blessing to kill in the name of love
So tell me now
Did I waste it all away?
Is it the taste of regret I inhale?
Or is it just too late?
(For you to forgive me)
Everything's my fault
But don't you know that
Every cloud has a silver lining?
so why don't we return to zero?
Follow your bliss, that's what they say
now I'm just somebody you used to call your friend
Baptized in the Church of Sin
My confessions hurt like hell
Baptized in the Church of Sin
My confessions hurt like hell
My heart, spoiled and greedy
Blood is boiling in my veins
Give me a chance to justify this
Invincible force I can't explain
So tell me now
Did I waste it all away?
Is it the taste of regret I inhale?
Or is it just too late?
(For you to forgive me)
I'm just a drop in a black ocean
Don't pretend you're swimming somewhere else
'Cause I can see you from the inside
Without looking at your face
So tell me now
Did I waste it all away?
Is it the taste of regret I inhale?
Or is it just too late?
(For you to forgive me)
