Monocane 04:20
Call off the dogs I'm not gonna run If I wanted to leave It would have been done So just put down the knife and we'll talk We'll have a conversation But don't get the wrong idea because this is not a negotiation There's nothing left for me to prove And nothing more that you can do Humanity can be improved But you won't like the path I choose But you don't understand We don't have to agree 'Cause while you stumble in the dark I'm hitting targets no one else can see So no more hiding now and I promise no more tricks Just know you're not the captain here and this ain't your goddamn ship I won't make an apology and I won't make an excuse Because I've come too far to turn back now And I've come too far to lose So with your hands clasped in desperation or as you call it "prayer" Cry out, beg forgiveness but we both see there's no one there

Don't tell me life is short When it keeps dragging on and on I can't believe it when today's been so damn long and I know I said I wouldn't break but that was just a little lie Only cause it seemed like it'd be so much work to die I'd walk a million miles I'd journey for so long Just to look you in the eye and tell you that you're wrong No need to meet my doom I think I know it well We keep our distance now but tomorrow who could tell and I don't need time to think about it I'm already through I'd be more afraid if there was something I could do But there's not I need to find the strength So I can carry this thing through and stop the second I begin to sound like you cause I know As hard as you may say it and as much as you may try even if we all believe that shit's not gonna fly No devil to make you do it There no god to see you through it No stars to make your dreams come true No one to blame, there's only you No need to meet my doom I think I know it well We keep our distance now but tomorrow who could tell and I don't need time to think about it I'm already through I'd be more afraid if there was something I could do But there's not

Look and you'll see a sign all the stars align but it doesn't mean a thing Nothing's different now In your head somehow the stars all shine for you until All your dreams have been blown to pieces And your empire's been pulled apart for scraps All your wishes are scattered ashes and your ambitions are even less than that voice deep inside that tells you to deny there's nothing you can do and you will be forgotten too No! You'll say never me How could this be? I'm the hero of this scene But you understand it's just a part of the plan so just let it be until All your dreams have been blown to pieces And your empire's been pulled apart for scraps All your wishes are scattered ashes and your ambitions are even less than that voice deep inside that tells you to deny there's nothing you can do and you will be forgotten Too late to bail out now The ship has fallen too far down Head long towards a cliche but you got too old to die young anyway And now you'll be forgotten too All your dreams have been blown to pieces And your empire's been pulled apart for scraps All your wishes are scattered ashes and your ambitions are even less than that voice deep inside that tells you to deny there's nothing you can do and you will be forgotten

Quit 04:10
Our dreams were beautiful back when they were young and it's a shame we have to kill them now but you know Their time has come Just a little more Just a little ways to go and then then I'll walk away I know what happens when I stay I find the same damn wall and I bang my head until the surface cracks and I start again Spin in circles pretend it's new cause I know My best will never do It's so easy to stay the course and it's easier to hold pretend you're moving down the road when you're just moving the goal If I knew back then that this would be as far as I would get then I swear upon my empty grave I would have fucking quit Remember what I had I remember what I lost and I see the difference know and I realize what it cost if I could see the future I have no doubt I would have pulled the plug and opted out wrapped my hands around the past to pretend that I that I could make it last It's so easy to stay the course and it's easier to hold pretend you're moving down the road when you're just moving the goal If I knew back then that this would be as far as I would get I swear I would have let it slip I would have fucking quit

Too Late 04:35
All the good I'll do is done All the pain is gone, except for one I leave it for you now And hope you'll leave it when the time allows I thought I'd see it, thought I'd know I thought I'd have somewhere to go A little trick to pull out at the end But I'm too tired, I'm too weak If this is what they meant by peace I hope I never feel this way again I feel it slipping so I cling So I can say sorry for everything Though there's no one left to hear I hope the words can make it disappear I feel I left so much undone I should have stopped but I'd just run as if I'd never have to face the truth As all the moments add to this I wonder how much I'll be missed And if I paid for all the sins of youth And it's the cruelest joke I know That for how much we have grown I now have to let it go And face this alone So promise me you'll miss me If only for a day But even if you don't I'll never know it anyway Tried to hold together but now I'm all unglued When it's finally over I wonder if all miss you Or if I'll see you again and if I do what happens then? Do we get to move on from here do we get to just pretend that I made up for everything again and again and again for all the love I never gave to you for all the monsters that I've been Goddamn this clarity That I always sought but now don't need Where were you when I was young When you could have stopped the damage done No fate or destiny Nothing I could believe But I guess it seemed too late because It always was

If you'll live forever I'll just end it now If you're the future You can plant me in the ground 'cause I want No part of the lies you're telling and I'm not buying the shit you're selling Tomorrow's coming soon but I hope it doesn't come for you All of your misery makes all of mine worthwhile and through it all there's still one thought that makes me smile We're all gonna die We'll all just rot away inside We're all gonna die We'll all be brought down to our knees in time you'll see Our bodies break and there's no escape No exit you can take We're all gonna die You say time is running short But I don't think that's true From what I've seen it isn't time that ends, but you We've all suffered for so long I hope your time comes before I'm gone but even still I know some day it will And when my final nerve begins to fray One thought can get me through the day We're all gonna die We'll all just rot away inside We're all gonna die We'll all be brought down to our knees in time you'll see Our bodies break and there's no escape No exit you can take We're all gonna die I know you think I don't understand But I don't think that's fair I get every word you say I just don't fucking care And when we all look back among the ruins in your wake What you call a life we all consider a mistake C'mon and die We're all gonna die We'll all just rot away inside We're all gonna die We'll all be brought down to our knees in time you'll see Our bodies break and there's no escape No exit you can take We're all gonna die

All is Lost 03:28
No more to do Nothing to say No string of empty words to make it all okay but here But here they are to no one's surprise Among the unaccepted truths and accidental lies we told While I can't take them away We can ignore them for today because All is lost and now forgotten cast into the sea And I don't care what hurt you darling but you can blame it all on me It doesn't matter it never did Nothing to save and nothing left to forgive because You know I'm sorry and I know you're right But we don't have to fight about it tonight because What difference would it make? No need to prove how much more we can take All is lost and now forgotten cast into the sea And I don't care what hurt you darling but you can blame it all on me Cast aside until tomorrow Right where it should be And if I had just one more minute I'd spend it finding what you need

I have my reasons I've got my regrets But the light you said was coming hasn't found me yet because The wounds are open The lesions are fresh Old ghosts in the blood New weakness in the flesh and I I know the hunger I've tasted the fear I've told the little lies to make them disappear but I Still hear them whisper I feel them stir I thought that they were dead but you can never be sure and now Your mouth is moving but there's nothing to say And all the lies I couldn't get to take are heading to a graveyard filled with past mistakes The skeletons left their closets for this ghost town Their bones are breaking but they won't lie down They chant: "I'd say that I was sorry but I meant every word I'd say that it was over, but that's not what I heard because Nothing is finished, nothing is through Now what will you do when we find you?" For all of your empty threats for all of your rage You're just standing in the ocean and pissing at the waves Have you come to destroy me? Have you come here to make me whole? Do you think I care? Have you come to absolve me? Tell me it's out of my control? Just what I need to hear To let it all burn down Cough up some blood and kick the ashes around Just to see what I find And when the pressure releases Pretend I see a million patterns in the pieces and there was a reason this time My good intentions decayed and I keep standing in my own goddamn way and I'll never learn
9.
You shouldn't have come here I just want to sleep The morning comes early and excuses are cheap Why did you come here? I'm not what you need You're just unfinished lines Corrupted memories I'd rather forget Where have you been? I've waited so long Outside your door I gave you everything and still I regret that I didn't have more But now We'll never set the world on fire Yes, if I try I can feel the spark I'm just too goddamn tired So let me go Please I can't watch you bleed Tell me a secret The night's getting old Give me an anchor Something to hold Cause I feel us drifting Like we'll burn in the sun I thought I was ready But what have I done? So maybe just one more time We can take the night and see See what we find
