Looking out among these silhouettes tonight, I feel the tension building up inside my throat. Oh knees I plead you don't buckle under me. If this energy takes hold of you then it's worth all of the strain that we've been through.
2.
Just face it, you have no idea what you're screaming about. You're wasting your whole life writing words that they won't figure out. I know there has to be another place to go. We're all headed out to the same old shows. And if you knew what this could be we would all be working towards a different kind of scene. Things are not looking to good. These kids are lost and they're all tuning out. But if there's stages, chances are that we'll be finding another place to go - You stand on the backs of your forefathers and you fail their every word. And I try to be what they're NOT talking about. Let's try to be what they're NOT talking about.

An Endeavor 02:51
A little bit of effort is all that you'll need to get over yourself. Everybody's fluent in shit talk. You'll see that it weighs down on your shoulders. From this town to the next one over. And all along I should have warned you this goes on and on. It can't hurt to get it wrong. What's your next course if you can't make the cut now. And it sure seems like you have lost all of your dignity. All your heart... Your feet have grown tired. You're the same, only your not what they desire. Your feet are not alone. Who would have known?

Day and Age 03:01
Would you understand if I was taking off from this land, and all we've grown up on? But it's hard to say if we will make it far when our history is sinking under us. What we've become, it won't destroy our opposition. They never knew they fucked up the whole system. So give us credit when it's due. For the few of us who make it through.... Exploration is in our nature. We began as wanderers and we are wanderers still. We can't avoid our own transitions. We'll never know what brings them. Just close your eyes. You'll find a galaxy inside your mind. So let's go right the wrongs we made. Travel back to a simpler day and age. Cause' we've been coming on strong. Just a little too strong. Relax.

In a simple world it is simply not enough to settle for a limit of sight. So tell me, will you wait to gain wisdom as you age. I'm sure that you'll live, alright. I've been living for this clarity. If I miss it for a second I'll surely become lost. This is everything it's supposed to be. A dollar every minute - I'll tell you how much that costs. Their advice - You can take it or leave it, but never believe it. And someday I'll tell you... We could all use a kick in the ass when it comes to getting motivated. Set a little spark off, set your mind straight and forget your old situations. We could all use a helping hand when it comes to getting it right and getting in. Motivation - Such a sight for sore eyes. Rip it up, get your thoughts situated and forget your old situation. I won't tell you how to live your life, but I'll mention that you're missing out. You'll be missing out.

The Constant 03:45
Better days wrapped around my mind. I knew I had to see you. And the light blinds surrounding sights until I couldn't see you. Bracing myself for your eyes. I could be a while... It's all the same, it's all you get. It's all a race from life to death. Regret, in the mean time, that could eat me alive. But she sure is something, all it takes to survive alone. You anchor me in time, even though we both exist on different lines. We could use a course correction. Point me in the right direction. Headed for a course correction. Forward in the right direction. From another perspective we sure seem like we're hopeless. But put me in the right direction and my faith in love will gladly do the rest. Bring me back. You've got me tripping through the very fabric of our universe. If I could only focus maybe time would be on my side. And I shouldn't be alone.
7.
Fuck your friends, they drown you out. You're an individual and only I can tell you that we never stood a chance. Don't need no second glance. You're part of the good for nothing and it shows. Just trust me, I should know. It's been a pain in my back and I couldn't relax until I let those days go. They can't stand on their own feet (like they ever could). Let's try it again now... In the end you've got just your back. Don't you realize you can't rely on your friends, no? Oh, to all of those who thought we were so close. I'm sorry to let you down, but I thought that I'd let you know. I couldn't stress enough the importance of this. As if I wasn't stressed enough to begin with... With the good for nothing. They can't stand on their own feet. Well I can stand for myself. In the end I had all your backs, now I realize that I don't need no one else.

Fluctuations 03:59
So much for starting over... Was it a big ordeal? Something I never fell for. I'm honestly just trying to be someone you'll notice here. You'll know the notes you hear. Everybody could learn a lot from the hear and now. I can take all that you're throwing at me. I can't get enough. Maybe he's breaking out of his shell. No. I'm just shaking off the roots that held me down for years. Find a connection, I'll stand corrected. When all that you've worked for is gone there's no more playing around. Silence is bound to break. I know you've been here for a while and I hate to make you wait. Through habits I can't escape. Anticipating is one of those things I can't take.
