Nobody Knows
02:26
|
|||
Two weeks ago I didn't know
I had a heart and now it's broken
True love I thought I found but now
I guess it's clear I’ll keep on lookin’
I used to wonder if you knew that I existed
Now I know you are aware not interested
And nobody knows
'Cause nobody cares
No one remembers
When I was there
Nobody sees
Nobody cries
Nobody questions
My lying eyes
We're still friends 'cause I pretend
I'm over you and it's alright
You live your life I fake a smile
My injury you'll never find
I loved you more than any girl I've ever known
But I guess it's fine I'll spend my life alone
And nobody knows
'Cause nobody cares
No one remembers
When I was there
Nobody sees
Nobody cries
Nobody questions
My lying eyes
Yeah, go talk to that guy over there.
He's way more attractive than I am
He would never hurt you
I'm sure he'll exceed all your hopes and dreams
And nobody knows
'Cause nobody cares
No one remembers
When I was there
Nobody sees
Nobody cries
Nobody questions
My lying eyes

Pressure
03:01
|
|||
Sweaty palms and a shivering heart
Mind giving out when I need to play a part
Clenched teeth in a circumstance
What I would give for my brain to understand...
...the pressure's on
Oh the pressure's on
Out of time to deliberate
Wasting away as I'm deciding fate
Losing grip on reality
For honor or panic or pain it's up to me...
...the pressure's on
Oh the pressure's on
Meditate on the consequence
Dodging commitment as I sit on the fence
Run away from my pride and shame
What will they know that I've done when they hear my name
...the pressure's on
Oh the pressure's on

Menial Meaning
04:00
|
|||
What can you feel when your heart is past feeling
Working for some menial meaning
Building a boat that will never stop leaking
Dream of money, spend your money on dreaming
Lift up your head, look into the sky
Or so they say, I don’t know why
I’ve tried to let go and fly away
But when I dream, I feel the same!
Crawl into bed, doubts are better unsaid
Tangling and fighting inside of your head
When finding a purpose is too large of a feat
Each battle of reason another retreat
Lift up your head, look into the sky
Or so they say, I don’t know why
I’ve tried to let go and fly away
But when I dream, I feel the same!
[bridge]
Lift up your head, look into the sky
Or so they say, I don’t know why
I’ve tried to let go and fly away
But when I dream, I feel the same!

The Struggle
02:28
|
|||
Tryin' to be kind
Do you think I'll lose my mind?
They're hiding in their lies
Will they ever come to light?
Lying in the haze
Where reason goes to waste
Fight it out a million ways
Until we're fully fazed
Am I ever free
To but pretend I'm who I'd be
Why can't they ever see
That the problem isn't me?
I should just move on
Since we never get along
They're right and I am wrong
So let's sing a song, like
[instrumental chorus]
I get to decide
'Cause I'm so sure I'm right
I say enough to slight
And finish in a fight
Wait and look at me
I'm a frozen harmony
I rule hypocrisy
Bite my tongue until I bleed
Will I ever earn
The right to be assured
Can confidence occur
When my thoughts are in a blur
What am I to do
When my mind is under coup
No solution comes to view
So let's hum a tune, like
[instrumental chorus]
Where else can I go
I have nothing more to show
Why can't I take it slow
Will I ever knoooooooooooow

Coming My Way
03:39
|
|||
You ask me why I'm still in school
I know you finished years ago
It's easy when your cares are few
Your balance never low
But my grades won't be recorded
If I'm working to afford it
So I'll never graduate
Good things keep coming my way
They never quite get here
but who’s gonna say
That I’m not bursting with joy
'cause good things keep coming my way
With each new job my rate goes down
What gives if I'm more qualified
I haven't graduated yet
I promise you I tried
They don't care that I'm earning it
Just that I have an internship
I'll never get a raise
Good things keep coming my way
They never quite get here
but who’s gonna say
That I’m not bursting with joy
'cause good things keep coming my way
Oh we've been writing several months
And we've been kissing several weeks
I make her feel so special
And I pay for what she eats
But when I ask her for her hand
She won't commit to any plan
So kids will have to wait
Good things keep coming my way
They never quite get here
but who’s gonna say
That I’m not bursting with joy
'cause good things keep coming my way
[instrumental solo]
Good things keep coming my way
They never quite get here
but who’s gonna say
That I’m not bursting with joy
'cause good things keep coming my way
Good things keep coming my way
Good things keep coming my way
Good things keep coming my way
Good things keep coming my way

One Day Closer
04:10
|
|||
[Verse 1]
Sail against the wind just to run the ship aground
Overcome your fears when no one is around
To see
Clear the desert sand using nothing but your hands
Keep on cooking rice 'cause it's all you have
To eat
Tell yourself again that you'll terraform Mars
Someday not before you stop all the wars
On earth
Insist on working hard when you see no return
Try to love again right after you've been burned
It hurts
[Chorus]
You're one day closer to never
You're one step closer to nowhere
You're one thought closer to knowing
One move closer to showing
Should you keep on going?
[Verse 2]
When you were a child and you wanted the world
Your dreams ran wild and your heart would burn
Enough
Now you look back if you even have time
Remember the days when your life was a lie
Of love
You're running just to sleep, sprinting just to eat
Staying alive being no easy feat
At all
Work has made a someday out of you
Your drive meanwhile has slowed down to
A crawl
[Chorus]
You're one day closer to never
You're one step closer to nowhere
You're one thought closer to knowing
One move closer to showing
Should you keep on going?
[Bridge]
How will you know that you're done?
Will you slow or carry on? (When)
[Chorus]
You're one day closer to never
You're one step closer to nowhere
You're one thought closer to knowing
One move closer to showing
Should you keep on going?
Should you keep on hoping?
