I've been searching for a while now The only thing I've ever found Was another reason to keep searching You think you got everything figured out We're floating down the river now Drowning in the choices that we made Is there anything or anyone that can explain to me How to cross the road with both eyes closed I need to snap out of it and get a grip, I'm losing it But I'm stuck in a daydream everyday I'm hanging on mountains, reaching for clouds I've started a fire that I can't stop now I'm burning up but not burning out I never want to hear the odds, I'll take a chance on what I've got Is there anything or anyone that can explain to me How to cross the road with both eyes closed I need to snap out of it and get a grip, I,m losing it But I'm stuck in a daydream everyday Too many times I've tried but couldn't make it Another lie I tell myself to fake it Don't forget this 'cause I'll regret this I tell myself it's all too much to hold down It slips away but I'm still holding on now All or nothing, we all stand for something

Out of Reach 03:34
Blank spaces fill the path ahead of me Nowhere to rest my head, nowhere to place my feet I can only hope that these steps I keep taking won't lead me there I've been watching this whole time Doing nothing at all, standing on the sidelines And this distance grows between me and the past Looking forward never looking back (Hold me down) I've been sinking (Turn around) I'm still spinning (There's silence now) but I'm screaming louder than I ever have I'm just trying to get by, but do I even stand a chance And if I'm letting go this time, I'm holding on to all I can I just want to believe that there's something to believe But I'm losing faith in myself I don't want to believe that this is all I can be But at least I'm standing now Pretending never gets you far A poor excuse for lying from the start Remember life isn't free And I would sell it all if I could have this to keep Let it out, breathe it in I'm so sick of this feeling And I'm thinking 'bout leaving I'm just trying to get by, but do I even stand a chance And if I'm letting go this time, I'm holding on to all I can I just want to believe that there's something to believe But I'm losing faith in myself I don't want to believe that this is all I can be But at least I'm standing now So many things I didn't say But I don't regret anything There has to be another way To keep this from slipping away (away) Away from me, but I'm still standing out of reach Give me something to believe again

There's nowhere left to hide You're out of luck this time I don't have much but I have my pride I'm just a man who believes that there is more we can see Take a step back (take a step back) and just keep your eyes on me Face the facts, things will never go back To the way they always used to be In time you're going to have to see The changes never stop so don't give up You must believe there's so much waiting to be seen The medicine that I can't find is waiting here inside But I can't open up this door within my chest holding in my very best Keeping me from being who I thought you all were seeing Face the facts, things will never go back To the way they always used to be In time you're going to have to see The changes never stop so don't give up You must believe there's so much waiting to be seen The perfect crime, the great escape You can't take back the steps you take Retrace the outline of my mind and tell me what you find And I can't help but ask you why, why you have to lie You keep on lying to yourself A constant self-inducing hell Rip off the shackles that you wear And you will see the world so clear Face the facts, things will never go back To the way they always used to be In time you're going to have to see The changes never stop so don't give up You must believe there's so much waiting to be seen There's nowhere left to hide (there's nowhere left to hide) There's nowhere left to hide

Never Learn 04:38
I'm standing on my own While everyday this weakness grows But I am not alone So are you ready to get going? I don't know what else to say 'Cause words mean nothing anyway Can't you see I'm not the same Just take a second and you'll know it And I can not describe just why I keep lying to myself 'Cause trust has to be earned I guess I'll never learn I didn't mean anything, I didn't mean anything I said to you I didn't mean anything, I didn't mean anything I said, I'm just confused And I've been waiting all along to say that it's alright I didn't mean anything, I didn't mean anything Stop pretending, the truth is hard to fake The perfect ending is the one you wrote a day too late Do you understand I don't think I can be the only one that tries to keep My head from sinking down below my shoulders? (And how can you) How can you replace something you never had In the first place? (In the first place) I didn't mean anything, I didn't mean anything I said to you I didn't mean anything, I didn't mean anything I said, I'm just confused And I've been waiting all along to say that it's alright I didn't mean anything, I didn't mean anything So do you understand I don't understand a single thing I've said these past few years? My words have no action and that is a fraction of all the Promises that disappeared I'm standing on my own While everyday this weakness grows But I am not alone So are you ready to get going? And I can not describe just why I keep lying to myself 'Cause trust has to be earned I guess I'll never learn
