Picture Show

Something's been out of place
With this familiar face
I always knew that change is a constant
But honestly I couldn't change
Was this my one mistake?
Should I have walked away before?
And I suppose
That I don't know what I don't know
But your words are just a picture show
Did you think you would be the hero
On your way to the end of the road?
Try not to overstress
This shit was for the best
That I was never gonna pass your test of time
Oh, it's just my luck
Maybe I'm out of touch
Was it ever enough just to be myself
And I suppose
That I don't know what I don't know
But your words are just a picture show
Did you think you would be the hero
On your way to the end of the road?
We're on our way to nowhere
And you get what you want
What's the point of being honest
If your words betray your heart?
We're on our way to nowhere
And you get what you want
What's the point of being honest
If your words betray your heart?
We're on our way to nowhere
And you've got everything you want
What's the point of being honest?
And I suppose
That I don't know what I don't know
But your words are just a picture show
Did you think you would be the hero
On your way to the end
And I suppose
It's for the best we're on our own
But your words are just a picture show
Paint me the villain and you the hero
On your way to the end of the road

In Love

Did my words mean anything to you?
Do I need endless ways to prove
That maybe we should question
Everything that we assumed
And I'm not running from my problems
Just finding better ways to solve them
There's no reason to spend the time that's left
Comforting the lives and lies
Of people like you
Of people like you
Am I supposed to figure it's perspective?
Cause why change anything
When you're in love with the way things are
Challenging anything's taking it too far
When you're in love with the way things were before
We talk and talk past each other's ears
But you've only said what you wanna hear
To reassure yourself there's nothing
Wrong with what you fear
And all of the things that you don't wanna know
You'd rather we do what we're told
I've heard it all a thousand times
And I've never been impressed with anything
You want us to do
What you want us to do
Am I supposed to figure it's perspective?
Cause why change anything
When you're in love with the way things are
Challenging anything's taking it too far
When you're in love with the way things were before
When you're in love with the way things are
Challenging anything's taking it too far
When you're in love with the way things were before
When you're in love with the way things are
Challenging anything's taking it too far
When you're in love with the way things were before
With the way things were before

Audience Of No One
03:30

I might as well be underwater
Cause I can barely breathe
The pressure growing every time
I sink beneath the sea
And my eyes, they look like lightning
In the middle of a storm
The darkest clouds a hurricane
Don't ask for any more, cause
You're making me anxious
I'm not much for conversation
To an audience of no one
I'm starting to hate this
I don't have the motivation
The clock is chasing me to sleep
And I'm running
You swear the puzzle solves itself one day
But I'm not quite so sure
I've never heard of anyone
Who's figured out the cure
So please just tell me what the hell
You think that I should try
Cause I promise you that everything
Has crossed my mind
You're making me anxious
I'm not much for conversation
To an audience of no one
I'm starting to hate this
I don't have the motivation
The clock is chasing me to sleep
And I'm running
You're making me anxious
I'm not much for conversation
To an audience of no one
I'm starting to hate this
I don't have the motivation
The clock is chasing me to sleep
And it goes over and over
I'm running out of time
And it goes over and over
I'm running out of time

Fall Apart
03:53

She asked if I was alright
But I was emotionless
I know my reputation
And she knows how the pieces fit
Her voice was so unsteady
I said, "I think I'm over this"
It's been a long time coming
My hands can't feel anything
Let me fall apart
Take the crutch out from my arms
Let me fall apart
Don't you try to save me now
I thought this time could be different somehow
She tried to get into my head
"Couldn't you just stop giving into vices
With hands held around your own neck?"
Let me fall apart
Take the crutch out from my arms
Let me fall apart
Don't you try to save me now
It's the little things I never mentioned
It's the evidence you hold on to
My head is just a broken engine
A million things that it won't do
So I'm asking you
To put the puzzle pieces down before I go
It's alright if we never know
If we never know
Let me fall apart
Take the crutch out from my arms
Let me break your heart
Don't you try to save me now
Let me save myself
Let me learn, and let me go
Let me fall apart, don't save me now

Waiting My Life Away
03:29

Should I be spending all my time in the world looking for pretense?
Will the words I write ever make some sort of mark?
A clever reference or rhyme like it's my only defense
Against the evidence that I lack some sort of spark
Will the energy I put into this endless string of letters do?
Is it so important after all?
It's like I'm just waiting my life away
And I overthink about the time it takes
It's like I'm just waiting my life away
But maybe if I just wait a little longer
Oh, I'll just wait a little longer
Perhaps next week I'll find the words I was looking for
And maybe I'll give myself some satisfaction
More often than not I treat it like a fucking chore
Well I suppose it's not always the same attraction
Will the energy I put into this endless string of letters do?
Is it so important after all?
It's like I'm just waiting my life away
And I overthink about the time it takes
It's like I'm just waiting my life away
But maybe if I just wait a little longer
I'll just wait a little longer
