Every morning we wake up
In a foreign, but familiar place.
I know some people get tired.
But, I could never get tired of this.
To be afraid is to feel alive
I'm afraid all the fucking time.
I should say what I really mean.
But, you know I won't say a fucking thing.
I got a taste of the open road.
Now I fill my plate til it overflows.
I just couldn't imagine
anything different, cause I'd fucking miss this.
To be afraid is to feel alive
I'm afraid all the fucking time.
I should say what I really mean.
But, you know I won't say a fucking thing.
Success isn't found in your wallet.
Stop listening hard when they say
to go make that money, and buy all those things proves you made it.
Sometimes I think we've forgotten, in the end we'll all just be dead.
And someone will sell all your stuff, or worse throw it away.
All these people keep talking.
Telling me there's a right way to live.
I should really start talking.
I'd say it doesn't get better than this.
Success isn't found in your wallet.
Stop listening hard when they say
to go make that money, and buy all those things proves you made it.
Sometimes I think we've forgotten, in the end we'll all just be dead.
And someone will sell all your stuff, or worse throw it away.
I'm just a human. Blood, flesh, and bones.
Don't think you know what I'm capable of.
I can do anything.

I used to see the world around me with confidence and clarity
It used to guide my sense of self, capacity for sympathy
I couldn't write a song of heartache because nothing ever seemed wrong
and it's been hard enough so far, just to sit and write this song.
As time goes on I'm noticing, things seem a lot less clear
these experiences fade and I start to fear the end is near
of this ignorance I've carried, the weight of it has really built up.
I'm still cognizant of good. I see it almost every day,
but it's hard to block the images that chase spirits away.
Still, it's been a long time coming and I think my shell's finally worn off.
And this naivety inside of me is not who I choose to be.
I've been exposed to things I've come to think really did not exist
even though I knew of fountains and tattoos upon their wrists
Can this really be the world that we've all been taught to love.
Well there's this voice inside that says just don't give up.
There's a future that's worth living, you've just got to say enough
There'll be trials there to test your diligence and true resolve.
Because you've got something they never had
Yeah you've got something they never had
Yeah you've got something they never had before.
(And it means that much more)

I have to find myself
I have to save myself
This urge is chasing me, this unconscious crux of familiarity.
And before I know it I'll be waking up staring at the darkness underground
I found a new meaning for the walking dead
Not those brought back to life but on their way there instead
You think you're creeping up those stairs but you're really just falling through.
There's no saving me, I'm already dead
There's no saving me, I'm already dead
There's no saving me, I'm already dead
(We all have our vices, crutches all around us)
There's no saving me, I'm already dead
(We all have our vices, crutches all around us)
There's no saving us, we're already dead
(We all have our vices, crutches all around us)
There's no saving us, we're already dead
(We all have our vices, crutches all around us)

Scared to Death

It scares me to death, to think of a world without you.
It scares me to death, to picture myself alone.
You build me up, give me confidence, and courage.
You build me up, and in my heart I believe that I can take on the world.
So I hide behind myself. I'm the brick wall that's getting in my way.
I built a solid foundation, with a fear that runs so deep.
Now you're pulling on one arm. I'm still pulling on the other.
We both know this is what it is.
I know where I want to be. I've gotten comfortable that's where I'll stay.
I wish I was great at living life like I could lose it.
One day I'm gonna lose it.
But I'm just great at picking all my scabs.
We've all got our scars.
I've gotten cold, and I know it. In fact I think that it suits me well.
I put a distance between us, don't expect me to get too close.
Now you're looking for answers, I'm still searching myself.
We both know it is what it is.
We know where we want to be. We've gotten comfortable that's where we'll stay.
I wish I was great at living life like I could lose it.
One day I'm gonna lose it.
But I'm just great at picking all my scabs.
We've all got our scars.
It scares me to death.

I might be late to the party but the cops haven't shown up yet.
Let's use the rest of the night to show that we are not faking it.
One plus One used to equal two more miles to go.
We used to sing of what we know. Yeah we still know things are the same.
Are we too far gone, or can we come back from this hell we have created.
We can't all be that jaded.
We are so young, and the passion hasn't yet escaped our lungs.
I haven't felt this alive since 2005
I used to be 15 years old and that was the first year that I was told,
things would never be the same.
I wanted to work from 8 to 3, but they said they didn't want me.
Unless i would work for free, somewhere else.
Are we too far gone, or can we come back from this hell we have created.
We can't all be that jaded.
We are so young, and the passion hasn't yet escaped our lungs.
I haven't felt this alive since 2005
I look at the past and we've fallen ill
We're running low on our good will
takes all we got trying not to kill
all that's left around here still
I'm not okay but I've not given up
I'm fighting away this apathy
So take a breath and breathe on in
and sing this melody with (me)
Nah Nah Nah....
