Nervous wreck Breaking at the seams, why am I so upset? Won't forget, tried so hard to please and live without regret, Found it instead These bitter lines, times left me jaded From severed ties to memories faded I can't accept what I have done, I can't believe what I've become Just let me out I wanna run Leave my problems in the sun My mind is inconsistent, Pull me close now leave me distant Try hard but lack persistence, Dwell on every poor decision This friendly disposition Leaves me open to confliction I'm under supervision, Just let me go These bitter lines, times left me jaded From severed ties to memories faded I can't accept what I have done, I can't believe what I've become Just let me out I wanna run And leave my problems in the sun I'm a wreck! I can't accept what I have done, I can't believe what I've become Just let me out I wanna run And leave my problems in the sun

Michigan 03:07
Cigarettes on the streets of Michigan, City weeps in the shade of yellow What I'd give to feel like this again Doves flee from marching citizens, City streets a shade of grey 12pm, white tall business man, Ties in wasting his life away Ohh picturesque Michigan Don't throw these lives away Ohh picturesque Michigan Show me how to live again x2 Light glistens at the break of dawn, Citizens wake up in scorn Same routine plagues those who are busy, Shade of grey blend into the city Footsteps and a sense of pity, Encapsulate, a once young city Ambience and sincerity, A memento a memory... Ohh picturesque Michigan Don't throw these lives away Ohh picturesque Michigan Show me how to live again x2 You can't take me, you won't take me away You can't take me, you won't take me away You can't take me, you won't take me away You can't take me, you won't take me away Leaves begin to fall from these yellow trees These lives are lost it's a cemetery Michigan I'm here to stay

Loser 03:19
It's been years now And nothing has changed This still feels like a nightmare I'm suffering in pain I was given a hundred chances I didn't act on one I guess this is just punishment for What I haven't done (what I haven't done) And I don't blame a single wounded soul For walking out on me in a time of need Through everything Now I've got no one at all And I don't think I'll make it through the brawl Cos I'm a mess, and I confess, I took the hit and now, I'm passed out on the floor I'm in fear now, I still feel the same, Will I ever get back up? Will I ever fight again? You can see it in my eyes, And the way I drag my... Feet I'm all alone, I've been knocked out to face A crippling defeat (a crippling defeat) And I don't blame a single wounded soul For walking out on me in a time of need Through everything Now I've got no one at all And I don't think I'll make it through the brawl Cos I'm a mess, and I confess, I took the hit and now, I'm passed out on the floor x2

Bridges 03:12
We build bridges just to tear them apart, We end up right fucking back where we started, Love drunk, teary eyed and broken hearted All alone in the land of those departed Our love was oak, luscious and green Who would have thought I'd be a lumberjack at seventeen? I tread the morning away on grass and dew, Wasting time in a life I lost with you I'm lost and uncharted, there's no place left to hide Keep coming back to the same trail I left behind The sun soaks sincerely into roses Had we seen it through, we could have blossomed too Instead you prove a thorn in my conscience, Stumble and wonder, how will I survive this? I'm lost and uncharted, there's no place left to hide Keep coming back to the same trail I left behind I witnessed you, break in two under the pressure, Once so supported, you contorted, you fell apart You have no place here, maybe this is nature's way To take away and let life breath again I'm lost and uncharted, there's no place left to hide Keep coming back to the same trail I left behind x2

Daze 03:40
I always wake up in a daze Try escape the morning light Must have skipped the sleeping phase, Another restless night It's a feeling in my head, Makes me swear that I could fly Must have skipped the sleeping phase, Another restless night But If I could get some sleep, And get you out of my mind It's been over two weeks now I've lost all track of time You've got a grip on me, I fell right under your spell It's been over two weeks now My sense is week at your will Who needs to dream when I can feel like this? I swear this summer breeze has never felt so crisp Let's live right in the moment, In eternal bliss I'm asleep, please don't wake me up It's been over a month, I can't tell If I'm awake, Let's drop our things and run It's a feeling in my chest I think it's spreading to my lungs, I think I'm running out of breath And it's only just begun... But If I could get some sleep, And get you out of my mind It's been over two weeks now I've lost all track of time You've got a grip on me, I fell right under your spell It's been over two weeks now My sense is week at your will Who needs to dream when I can feel like this? I swear this summer breeze has never felt so crisp Let's live right in the moment, In eternal bliss I'm asleep, please don't wake me up If these words don't mean a thing, Or if you're just not listening That's alright but don't pretend, That you're fine to let this end... x2 Just stay alive for one more night, Take my hand and hold on tight, Wipe your tears and let me say, I'm awake!
