Someone Else

I'm still awake
How can I escape?
These thoughts
Create
Space I cannot erase
Still hiding
Covert disguise
A hold on my mind
I really wish you were someone else
I really think you should seek some help
You took what we had and we won't take a step back
Did you mean anything you said
Did you think of the overwhelming debt
That you left over my head
But now I'm moving on
So open up, create a bond
Give someone hope to carry on
Cause you always say you could do better than me
I really wish you were someone else
I really think you should seek some help
You took what we had and we won't take a step back
I won't let it
It's pathetic

There's a time in everyone's life
That we have to say goodbye
Between you and I, I love you guys
And I'm sorry I don't say it all the time
So thank you for the bed
The roof over my head
You cried for me, you tried to see
The world from my eyes
And forget all my lies
This is how much you mean to me
So now you are my rock
How have I learned so much?
What I owe to you
Is more than this song can touch
I believe in me, and I just wanna be
Everything you want for me, I hope I make you proud
I don't want to see
The day when you leave
And I know you've seen
That other side of me
I say what I think but it's not what I mean
Cause I'm selfish but thankful for everything
I'll always be
Thankful for everything

I'm at this job with this clock and its ticking away
I'm trying to figure out how this is worth the pay.
So, I need a little stress off my mind
I need to know that I'm not wasting my time
But you ignore all the problems that you find
So here is what I suggest
(Chorus)
Give a little less
and take it from the rest
What do I gain from all this stress ?
Give a little less
and take it from the rest
There's nobody left to call
And nobody left to blame
Cause you threw them all away
No mistakes or breaks it's just a waste of pay
So I need a little stress off my mind
I need to know do you value my time
I don't think you even know I have rights
So here is what I suggest
Chorus
And I think that this is how we sink
Were drowning in the problems that we can't fix
We need to narrow down what we want
I'll be happy
Even if it kills me

Heart Swell

I'll tell you how this started
I called one of our only friends
I asked him if he's at your place
But he told me to listen
The person I called my friend
No longer had my back, instead
You told them all my secrets
And you were fucking with their heads
Did it change you?
Cause it changed me too
And everything that you said was true
The only last question I had for you
Is....
(Chorus)
Did it ever make your heart swell?
Or do you feel let down?
Did it ever shake you?
All and all I wish that I'd
Find a better use of time
Then scroll threw all things you do
I can't deny that I still miss you
So come and pack up all your stuff
The sovereign nature of your touch
The cut of what just had me stuck
Won't hit as hard as it once struck
But I'm the same and you are too
I won't confront those things you do
But I'm still trapped with it wrapped in my head
I can't believe those things you said
There's no weight in what we say
