Ropes 03:17
Voiceless in the midst of the voices, poised with a little bit of resolve I've still got that sickening feeling, that it's just not enough so you get what you give until there's nothing left my patience is fleeting, my faith is wearing thin never gonna be what you want me to be, and I'm only gonna choose the path I please enlighten me so I can see more of the fallacies that we adorn I'm losing myself to the weight of this moment, am I living my life or the lie that they sold me? now the tables turn (so you get what you give) so you get what you give until there's nothing left my patience is fleeting, my faith is wearing thin so you get what you give until there's nothing left my patience is fleeting what did you know about the path I chose? what do you know? You're just tangled in the ropes

Living Now 02:35
Alone, I cope with a clouded mind and a shred of hope I gripped, that rope and it felt like home Cheers to all my absent friends -the recompense I’ll never get -the distance and the dissonance between my kin A toast, to those that are looking down from the totem pole lo and behold, this parting note: If I’m not living now, then I’m dying slowly no need for sympathy, though this path is lonely and I don’t give a damn what you think you told me here’s the simple truth - you don’t fucking know me Been standing still for far too long won’t hold my breath, won’t hold my tongue recollect what keeps me strong and contemplate how far I’ve come

Void 02:40
Left it all behind, trying to ease my mind One step at a time Sticks and stones Take no toll This road is still my own I'll fill the spaces Inside this void Made some changes Left me no choice I know my place but you know I'll never run out of these things I said cause I got a lot I'm not proud of Did you fake it, or did you mean it Either way I still felt cheated

Chain 02:10
Feeling the weight now everyday Stuck inside that fucking rage A bitter taste and a mind misplaced Keys to the cage Another dead end and my passion is dead Can't revive or relive all the things that we said So I sulk and I sin till I find it within to get out of my own head I'll break the chain of my hatred Put all my weight into changing I'll break the chain of my hatred Put all my weight into changing Spent so much of my time Over-pacing these tiles Run until my feet find A place to take the right strides Truth is, I wanted to It won't come to me So I've gotta start reaching We choose, The rope we use My noose, Is every single weakness Death, decay, only in my mental state The poison in my veins Death, decay, only in my mental state, I will find a way

Never Wanted 03:42
There we broke down Outside an old town No escaping the shade as the light drowns beneath the promise of fading sun, and now your cross your fingers behind every one. Here we are singing the same tunes, The same bars, biting the bottle in back booths I couldn't make sense of the changes How I felt or were I could place it You're not complacent with anyone, you're just searching for a reason to turn and run Go and read the stars and signs now, so you can find your easy way out I never wanted this, I never needed any of it I watched you wain, and sway Like the willow by my window pain On bending branch the raven sings Cut it all down and count the rings Does it even make a sound When it falls down and your not around Your ears won't catch echoes of ache So watch me bend until I break I know that I do this to myself, But I won't just break for someone else

Prosper 03:56
What I want to say and I should say Are not the same so I will wait, Hope and pray that the day comes When fortune falls away And you’re left with honesty Where were you when I needed you? It doesn't even matter I just need the truth, Don't know how or why I expected you to come through. I know I don't belong here Held captive to pride and my fear Hate is written in blood and stone A filthy bandage over my wounds Despite the burdens that you bestow, I'll find the patience to let them go The innocence left my eyes, Blissfully when I was blind. Now I see forests for trees, what we see is what we reap Failure, I tasted something bitter but I will not spit fear, Nor will I stay here Prosper, my wish for you is proper, All that it could be, just as it should be

Happier 02:54
Sick and tired of dragging my feet down a one way street and looking over my shoulder, and again the cycle repeats stuck inside a time and place when we were free I finally found something in this silence I'll make my noise and you'll say your prayers even though it still falls on deaf ears falling on deaf ears now thought I heard the way that you said my name resentment and full of disdain and I resent the way that we play the game I finally found something in this silence I'll make my noise and you'll say your prayers as we watch the clock spin through these years Happier, yet I feel the sadness let it burn, then scatter the ashes past and present forever clashing flowers bloom, place them on the casket.
