You could burn my name
if you're evening the score
This is all a shame
but I can no longer afford
to overwhelm myself
to the weight of every single doubt
I was not feeling well
and I'm far from it now
I needed to breathe
I was choking on the guilt
It was hard to speak
I was empty on the thrill
Well don't you ever say
that my heart was not involved
in every single moment
and at your every single call
If it's over
well it barely even started
Claim to know just how I feel
it pains me that we parted
For all of the frustration
you could tell was all on me
Ask yourself if it was obvious to see
Could you still blame me?
Maybe I was wrong
or too sudden in approach
There was no other way
in letting it be known
I am not as strong as the shell
I count to cover up
Where did I belong?
I questioned all along
For our sake
We're in dire need of break
I'm at clear despair
Please be aware
That I will take the fall
and swallow every last excuse
If I did not say it all
I left it all for you
If it's over
well it barely even started
Claim to know just how I feel
it pains me that we parted
For all of the frustration
you could tell was all on me
Ask yourself if it was obvious to see
Could you still blame me?

Small Town

Goodbye my failed lovers
or acquaintances of mine
Who I could not know any longer
We had our run
Intricacies of broken trust
I'm on the move sooner than inclined
I'm reaching towards a finish
Like I owned it from the start
For any moment I am skipping
As of now I want no part
I never meant to be so stationary
I'll speed up the pace
I'm at my breaking point
I played out this place
You can keep your small town
I'm leaving mine
So long my fellow comrades
Through the peaks that we now find
We lost the stride we once had
I must confess
In this lack of outcome I won't invest
I stand by that I had other things in mind
The way our world worked out
Not all goals at our defeat
We both knew for damn sure
It had us shackled by our feet
I can't straggle on much farther
Tested the limits of our range
and emptied out my pockets
I need change
You can keep your small town
I'm leaving mine

You're sick and tired
of being in this circle
of being used, being abused
like you have done no wrong
You were well knowing to the fact
that it's all reoccurring
Your eyes fall blindly to this track
Let me be reassuring
You do the same damn thing
You say the same damn thing again
You do the same damn thing
It's just the same damn thing again
You sleep alone
with every other option left
A long and winding list of failures
that you wish you could rest
Looks like it caught up in the end...
Looks like it caught up in the end!
You do the same damn thing
You say the same damn thing again
You do the same damn thing
It's just the same damn thing again
I'm critical
I'm cynical
with every right to be

Then There Was You

My instincts told me walk away
but the better part of you won over
If I don't turn around and I stay
Will you lead me through the kindest of blurs
Back to where we started it all
When I dialed out the first phone call
So curious I was not afraid
I knew you'd have me full swayed
For better or for worse I was struck
I could not bare any bad luck
All my friends spoke the truth
I disregarded them all for you
With no single moment to spare
What may come of outcomes is not fair
For anytime I spoke too soon
Then there was you
You have not been easy to forget
You run to me every chance you get
As much as it hurts to admit
I would not change any part of it
Now where do I turn? What have I learned?
I'm back to old habits again
While I was your quick fix I thought this was love
Oh cupid lead me on
For better or for worse I was struck
I will not bare any bad luck
All my friends spoke the truth
I disregarded them all for you
With no single moment to spare
What may come of outcomes is not fair
For anytime I spoke too soon
Then there was you
We sit across the bar acting like we never met
and glare at one another with nothing to be said
Went over it a thousand times, I made up my mind
I wish you safe travels from all we left behind

Not To Be Of My Concern
05:18

I am done
with misguided fools like you
I don't belong
in your rapture
in your cage
in your shoes
Your regress
Your hassles
Your problems
are not to be of my concern
The old you
I used to know
was better than this pattern you have left behind
of wrongful behavior
wrongful crime
wrongful and out of mind
Your regress
Your hassles
Your problems
are not to be of my concern
