Dead Weight
03:02

Looks like it is time to jump ship
They're screaming mutiny like I'm some kind of captain
I didn’t sign up for this
This is not what expected
But I’m standing on the edge
Looking for a new perspective
Before you even know it, everything will go wrong
And all that you can do is stand your ground
Keep moving on
Listen to the voices as their cheering you on
Do everything you can, yes don't back down
This is your chance to prove them wrong
I told myself I'd be better than this
I need to separate and stop dragging this dead weight
I can push myself some more
Yeah it’s worth the deprivation
I will use this as my fuel
To spread a little motivation

Watch Me Swim
02:44
|

I like to spend my time learning things the hard way
I always have and I always will
Still there's a chance to grow
I just need to pay attention
Before I make another mistake
So just like that I am jumping feet first
I'm welcoming the water with open arms
I used to think I’d drown if I was on my own
But it is looking like I am better off
Watch me swim
Sometimes I put my trust
Into people undeserving
They'll play the part to enjoy the ride
So I’m left confused
When you bite the hand that feeds you
This is where I draw the line
You gotta keep on move forward
Leave it all behind
Focus on yourself now
Yeah it's your time

You Got This
03:29
|

I put it all on the line
Feels like I've wasted my time
Still this just doesn't seem right
But all you want is a fight
This isn’t what we were searching for
But we still found it
Yes you will learn things can fade away right before your eyes
So when you make it through the day
And wonder how you survived
Just know you have the strength to face
Everything in life
All you need is to believe that you got this
You're gonna be alright
How did we end up like this
The world left taking a piss
We bottled it in our fists
Please tell me what did I miss
This isn't what we were searching for
But we still found it

Who You Can Trust
03:33
|

Somebody try to reign him I've lost control and the room spinning
Yeah anxiety is on the prowl
And no ones here to calm me down
So I'm forced to watch you play this game
And now this life we built is up in flames
So I won't tag along or be misused
There nothing left for me to do
So I’ll take my things and go
I’ll be alright on my own
I just thought that I'd share this journey with the ones I love
Sometimes you never know who you can trust
Here we go again
While you point the blame
Doesn't look like anybody's listening
Try to bring me down and steal my name
But I'll rise above and keep on singing
It’s shame it had to come to this
I never thought I’d have to abandon my ship
But I can start anew
I swear I’m through
Yeah I'm sorry to disappoint you
I've worked too hard to let this stop me now
Yeah this time I am coming for you
this time I've got something to prove

What It Takes
01:58
|

How could I let this go so far?
I am ashamed at myself for letting you tear me apart
So no more sifting through the dark
Yes I will do just what takes
To prove I have the spark
To light up the room when I’ve got to
Yes I’ll light up the room if I want to
I'll say to myself I’ve got what it takes, this time I will be brave
So say to yourself I’ve got what it takes, to learn from my mistakes and slowly find my way
After all that we’ve been through
I never thought it’d go like this even with all of the clues
But there’s really nothing I can do
You’ve made your bed and lied in it
And you won’t listen to the truth
So I’ll just light up the room when I gotta
I’ll light up the room if I want to

Walk The Plank
03:25
|
|||
Sometimes I hate myself
When life’s not quite my way
It’s hard to erase
The things that cause you pain
And I know the hurt that you’re hiding away
But this is your chance to seize the day
So I guess I have you to thank
The choice was easy I’ll just walk the plank
Cause now I’m thriving by myself
Don’t need anybody else
To hold me back
I’m in control of my path
I had turn around and quickly walk away
Still this is all because the choices that you made
And I see the pain that you’re hiding away
But this is my chance to seize the day
I’m in control of my path
|

There's something greater at play
A beautiful mess to be made
I should've seen we were in trouble
I took my chance to walk away
I'll try and carry on
But some days I'm scared
I don't belong
But this time I'll make the rules
Yes a weights been lifted
No more playing the fool
I'll embrace existence
I wanna be alright
To see another night
Take a breath and close your eyes
And enjoy that you're alive
Somehow I missed all the signs
They were hiding in plain sight
And now that all of this is over
I’ve learned a lot along this ride
So I will carry on
Someday I’m scared I don’t belong
So when the rain comes
You tell it to go away

Telescope (b-side)
03:27
|
|

Well it's late
And I'm not sure which way to go
Shoot for the stars and simply try to float
Don’t let the current pull you under
When the waves
Start billowing over the boat
Hold on tight I swear you're not alone
Sometimes you need to face the thunder
I’ll use a telescope
To find my way to land
Our vessel is taking on water
I don't think this was part of the plan
I’ll use a telescope
To search across the sky
The horizon isn’t much farther
Cause now I’m finally seeing the light
When the rain
Does it’s best to drown you out
Or overshadows you with doubt
Don't let these thought consume you
Don't let those thoughts consume you
Fight the pain
When you're left not knowing what to do
Keep looking till you find the truth
Sometimes it's right in front in front of you
Storm clouds keep moving in
I won't let them win
