For all the sleepless nights spent searching for identity.
For the broken hearts never knowing who they are
to the disenfranchised I sing it out. I’m taking back my life.

I let you down and all it took was five words.
I’m confessing secrets to ghosts of the golden age
Are we stronger than this?
I’m not stronger than this
Everyone I ever was and could ever be
washed away in a moment that can never be undone.
I sacrificed the world to chase ghosts I will never be.
I just want to close my eyes.
Take me away from this strife
Can I rewrite how this ends?
When I wake will I still be the same?
Everyone I ever was and will ever be
washed away in a moment that can never be undone.
I sacrificed the world to chase ghosts I will never be.
There’s no going back.
I’ve lost it all tonight.
No chance to make this right
This was never meant to be
I’ve lost it all tonight
It will never be alright
It will never be alright.
and I will never wake again

Abandon Me

I can’t bare the weight of another day
and I know it’s a cliche
but I’m giving up, I’m giving in
I’ll write the world “I’m sorry that I’ve forsaken you but I’ve been fighting the long year.”
In a failure’s war between fate and insecurity, I’ll never make it out alive.
The only hand to pull me up holds my head in shame
So I’m taking advice from empty bottles telling me it will be alright.
Replied the world “but it’s time like these you’re supposed to find yourself”
Written in rough outlines of better times,
“Get used to solitude if you want to survive or else you’ll never make it out alive.
Bloodshot confessions please guide me home.
These endless nights are wearing thin
I’ve given up on tomorrow, daybreak will never come.
Moonlight abandon me. I will never sleep again.
Bloodshot confessions please guide me home
These sleepless nights are all I know
Tired eyes keep focus on the end.
Moonlight abandon me. I will never sleep again.

Dead Man Walking

You could walk these streets a hundred times (and they’ll still never feel the same)
Every step you make is one further from the truth
You’re clinging to burned out streetlights just to find a way
to let the shadows hide the cracks of your old decay.
How long can you play this game
of hiding insecurities in a false identity?
The veneer is wearing thin, the sun is coming up
A walking tragedy. You’ll never make it out.
You’ll never make it out.
In time all of this will fade
and you’re out for the world to see.
Say goodbye to privilege (you didn’t deserve)
You’re out for the world to see.
For thieves there’s no going back
Dead man walking

New Histories

Tonight we burn forever. If this is all there is then scream it fucking loud.
Caution? We left it states ago and now there’s nothing to hold us back
So let’s bury misery for one more night
and maybe it’s just bad luck that we’re not dead.
we shout “hail to the damaged kings” cause we don’t give a fuck.
tonight we are infinite in skylines
‘cause this is all we’ll ever need.
We can build forever in six hour drives
Create new histories in the passing lines
Abandon youth in idyllic prose
and shed the weight of yesterday
and if this is all there is then let’s make it fucking loud.
and maybe it’s just bad luck that we’re not dead.
we shout “hail to the damaged kings” cause we don’t fucking care.
tonight we are infinite skylines
‘cause this is all I’ll ever need.
Sights set on city lights to guide us home
Turn it up again to drown the sounds (so I can never sleep)
Sights set on city lights. Don’t take me home.
Tonight we burn this city to the fucking ground
*For Jake, Dom, Joe, Evan, Erik, Sam, and Huff.

No Hope

I’m screaming into door frames with a heavy hand and an empty heart,
spilling contradictions from the top of my mouth.
Are you following?
I’m too tired to play along.
So share your voice with me and drown the disappointment out.
I’m praying to a god that isn’t there
to find the courage to take me there.
No hope will deliver me while I suffer this indignity.
To find the person I want to be. I pour I myself out. I’ve come undone.
No hope. No control.
So share your voice with me and drown the disappointment out.
No hope. No control.
