Ghost Town 02:35
When the dark moon rises The shadows come to life Dancing in the fog Under phosphor light A melody of whispers Poetry of lies A mesmerizing rhythm That creeps into the mind Whoa-oh oh oh Whoa-oh oh oh It's a ghost town When the sky turns black It's a ghost town When my mind attacks In this ghost town All the streets are cracked I've got to find My way back On the crowded sidewalks Where no one makes a sound Standing all alone Staring at the ground Broken buildings lining The empty streets to roam A chilly wind reminder That the ghosts are all still home Whoa-oh oh oh Whoa-oh oh oh It's a ghost town When the sky turns black It's a ghost town When my mind attacks In this ghost town All the streets are cracked I've got to find My way back

The Road 03:22
She rolled in on the greyhound bus Another lonely town Yeah no one, can hurt her now And she all alone and she’s living Down the road Yeah we're living Down the road Down the road He said "darlin give me your hand, I've got a place that we can go, So far away, no one will know" he said "it's only a few miles down the road" Yeah we're living Down the road Down the road Yeah we're living Down the road Down the road

Weird Boy 03:13
He's a weird boy And he's out of step And he's out of style And he's out of time He's a weird boy He's a weird boy And he doesn't show But he always knows Which way to go He's a weird boy He's a queer boy And he's all mixed up Head is all fucked up But he can't give up He's a queer boy He's queer boy But he doesn't show No one can know Which way he goes He's a queer boy Weird boy Weird boy walking Weird boy talking Weird boy singing Weird boy Weird boy walking Weird boy talking Weird boy singing (Woah oh oh) Woah oh oh He's a queer boy And he's on the run Having some fun Looking for love He's a queer boy He's a weird boy And he doesn't know Oh he doesn't know How much he's grown He's a weird boy Weird boy Weird boy walking Weird boy talking Weird boy singing Weird boy Weird boy walking Weird boy talking Weird boy singing (Woah oh oh) Woah oh oh Weird boy walking Weird boy talking Weird boy singing Weird boy Weird boy walking Weird boy talking Weird boy singing (Woah oh oh) Woah oh oh

Every Day 03:48
There's a little kid sitting in his room He's got his headphones on and his angry songs There's something heavy coming down And he don't know why it's so easy to cry Every day feels like the end of the world Another day just like the last He's been thinking bout the lessons that he learned Reliving moments from the past There's a man on TV and he's preaching doom He says it won't be long till we're all gone There's something awful going round And it's hard to try when you have to hide Every day feels like the end of the world Another day just like the last We been searching for some comforting words Feels like we're going nowhere fast Every day feels like the end of the world Another day just like the last Keep on searching for some comforting words And try to let the moment pass

Breathe 01:51
Swimming in shadows, the tides rolling out Riding the current, and spinning about About to go under, and gasping for air Starting to lose, it I don't fucking care Over caffeinated Understimulated Little room has got me aggravated Heart is pounding Head is drowning I can't fucking breathe Deeper and deeper I sink like a stone Darker and meaner and swimming alone Vision is fading, my chest starts to burn Patiently waiting for when it's my turn Over caffeinated Understimulated Little room has got me aggravated Heart is pounding Head is drowning I can't fucking breathe (Fuck) Breathe In Breathe Out Breathe In Breathe Out Breathe in Breath out Breathe in Breath out When it's all over, I'll back alive Ready to talk about how I survived May not be much, I'll call it a win Keep an eye out cuz the tides rolling in Over caffeinated Understimulated Little room has got me aggravated Heart is pounding Head is drowning I can't fucking breathe

Put Me Down 04:04
I don't know who I am Or if i belong Which memories are mine Oh yeah been too long I just wanna see clearly I wanna see the light One way or another I'm getting out tonight Put me down and let me run away Put me down and let me run free Put me down and let me run away Put me down I'm not here for answers I ain't here for word I'm still alive and kicking Despite what you've heard I'm not here for life I don't want no revenge One way or another It's gonna end Put me down and let me run away Put me down and let me run free Put me down and let me run away Put me down Put me down and let me run away Put me down and let me run free Put me down and let me run away Put me down

It's a chemical reaction It's the dissatisfaction It's a total lack of action It's the endless distraction It's the fire and the fuel The liar and the fool The trial and the sentence It's the voice of ridicule It's the shadow in the closet It's not always platonic He's typical neurotic Who's about to go atomic It's the stranger in the rain The anger and the pain The dangerous conditions That can never be explained Carved into the stone The oldest written song Buried in my bones It's been there for so long Feeding off the fear The voice inside my head Whispers in my ear Babe you better off dead It's the hand holding the bottle It's the mouth around the nozzle It's the newest make and model It's laying on the throttle The ever burning flame The never ending rage The clever beast that's waiting To break out if it's cage Carved into the stone The oldest written song Buried in my bones It's been there for so long Feeding off the fear The voice inside my head Whispers in my ear Babe you better off dead

Fed up, beat down, back against the wall Push back, move forward once and for all Give up, control, of the things you never knew Take back, the power inside of you All the things that creep inside The corners of your mind Monsters in the closet That bump in the night White knuckles There's trouble under the bed Another nightmare A storm in your head Clouds hang in the sky Like cyclones Green eyes looking down Feel the wind blow We're spinning I'm sinking Hear the thunder crash When I'm thinking Fuck up, go off, show em how you feel Step back, take time and learn how to heal Break down, the bias deep in your mind Accept, the beauty in all that you find The tired eyes that scrutinize Telling only lies Sirens in the darkness Listen to their cries It's over Roll over bury the dead Another nightmare A storm in your head Clouds hang in the sky Like cyclones Green eyes looking down Feel the wind blow We're spinning I'm sinking Hear the thunder crash When I'm thinking Clouds hang in the sky Like cyclones Green eyes looking down Feel the wind blow We're spinning I'm sinking Hear the thunder crash When I'm thinking
