You’re stuck in a rut You need something different Wouldn’t call it taking a chance More getting the fuck out Won’t be resigned, won’t reconcile, It’s black and white, and not single file Trust my gut for once and drift away They said I was colourblind I’ve been searching for the destination Why is it so hard to find? Forget about your outlook It all depends on luck That brought me to a dead end Don’t get your hopes up Jumped off a sinking wreck Thought I’d touch solid ground Hit the water face first, never been so wrong Built an image up, too bad it had to come down (and now this) World is fucking killing me And there’s no one else to blame They said I was colourblind I’ve been searching for the destination Why is it so hard to find? Forget about your outlook It all depends on luck, That brought me to a dead end Don’t get your hopes up Recognize what you created, this gut instincts overrated Getting sick of this deflated Feeling in my chest Recognize what you created, this gut instincts overrated Getting sick of this deflated Feeling in my chest They said I was colourblind I’ve been searching for the destination Why is it so hard to find? Forget about your outlook It all depends on luck, That brought me to a dead end Don’t get your hopes up (They said) Don’t get your hopes up, get your hopes up (They said) Don’t get your hopes up, get your hopes up (They said) Don’t get your hopes up, get your hopes up They said, don’t get your hopes up

I don’t know how it came to this but I think I blacked out this entire month 25 and still growing up I’m on the couch with a heavy heart and A notebook of people I used to call Can’t bring myself to dial the phone It’s been two whole weeks. Since I’ve left my apartment. Wish I could leave my own head Thought I knew how my life would turn out But these thoughts weigh me down, my friends say I’ll come around Months go by without a trace of what's left Am I stuck in the past or Keeping up at best Is this the state of my depression Or just a form of self expression I can’t tell, (they say) this pill will help I know its been this way for months I tried to hide behind this front Realized that it’s my own delusion It’s been three damn weeks. (Since I’ve) been off my medication About time that I pick the pieces up Thought I knew what my life would become But these thoughts weigh me down, my friends say I’ll come around Months go by without a trace of what left Am I stuck in the past or Keeping up at best This Bitter feelings left it hard to breathe I’ll try to get some sleep And see that the worlds not out to get me. I thought I knew how my life would turn out But these thoughts weigh me down, my friends say I’ll come around Months go by without a trace of what's left Am I stuck in the past or Keeping up at best (I just need some sleep, I just need some sleep) It's been four damn weeks, and I just need some sleep.

Pass me that kerosene And don’t forget the spark I’ve been over-served And the lights are getting dark Point of no return You can see it in my face Still I’m waiting for these pieces to fall They say that no one wants to be The last one at the party But these stronger drinks and later nights Are starting to get the best of me I can’t Help but feel that it’s Far from Over you can’t See That I’m getting older And better off sober Maybe It’s just out of reach My bloodshot eyes are failing me Holding back the truth Its something I refuse to see Can’t seem to make it out I’m running in place Friends have come and gone And my life hasn’t fucking changed The party’s over I can’t Help but feel it’s Far from Over you can’t See That I’m getting older And better off sober A wake up is what I need From this intoxicated dream Can’t stop, it’s never-ending There’s just no point resenting I can’t Help but feel it’s Far from Over you can’t See That I’m getting older And better off sober

It's getting loney here on the shelf Becoming clear that you wish I was someone else Collecting dust in the back of your head A dog-earred page in a book you've never read Conversations don't get far Seems like taking my own advice is too hard My second nature makes me wanna hold on But next time you look back, I'll be good as gone So if I can't change your mind And if I can't turn back time There's no way out from where we've been Cause you know There's no going back I realize that I'm losing the plot Recognize that it isn't what I want Buried in the dark, I can't find the light Sinking feeling, no way home tonight Comatose from your hit and run What happened then, it cannot be undo Came away with a new point of view It's time to burn the memory of you So if I can't change your mind And if I can't turn back time There's no way out from where we've been Cause you know I crossed that line It's funny how quick your future can turn into your past Cause I can see that bridge is burning and there's no going back So if I can't change your mind And if I can't turn back time There's no way out from where we've been Cause you know I crossed that line It's funny how quick your future can turn into your past Cause I can see that bridge is burning and there's no going back There's no going back

I left this place for colder weather Just let it go, it’s gonna get better Wish this could be temporary Change of scenery sure to scare me There were promises that you couldn’t keep And they echo in my mind when I try to sleep, Broke and bruised but not defeated Too damn proud to ever concede it When there's nothing left to lose And you’ve found every excuse to hide your face When your story’s turning bleak, and morals growing weak Just say sorry These days are wasting away (These days are wasting away) I can't ever make you want me (Nothing more than a hometown story) I can't ever make you want me Something's gotta give Never said I could make it on my own But you’re telling me everything is wrong You chose this, you know this Never said I could make it on my own Fed up with your sticks, but now you’re throwing stones (You chose this, I know this) When there's nothing left to lose And you’ve found every excuse to hide your face These days are wasting away (These days are wasting away) I can't ever make you want me (Nothing more than a hometown story) I can't ever make you want me Something's gotta give You chose this, I know this You said that nothings worth it You chose this, I know this You said that nothings worth it These days are wasting away (These days are wasting away) I can't ever make you want me (Nothing more than a hometown story) I can't ever make you want me Something's gotta give

I don’t see your face when I go to sleep now anymore Thought it would be a long drawn out process, extended detour Turns out you weren’t so great, and better yet I’m in the right space We needed this to end You built me up To break me down You left me begging and pleading Just want You to Know that I’m over you I’d wish the same thing back but Lately I don't give a shit Those days Insane Past few months were in disarray Come closer I’ll tell you I’m better this way On the road, a hotel bed, i’m holed up in this room With two potential paths – you forget or get swallowed up “Easy choice” (yeah right) it’s not, the mind plays tricks on you. But, I picked the first road - haven’t looked back, skipped the miscue Just want You to Know I’ve gotten over you I’d wish the same thing back but Lately I don’t Give a shit Those days Insane Past few months were in disarray Come closer I’ll tell you I’m better off this way Moving On All’s well that ends well Moving On All’s well that ends well Just want You to Know I’ve gotten over you I’d wish the same thing back but Lately I don’t Give a shit Those days Insane Past few months were in disarray Come closer I’ll tell you I’m better off this way
