Pitfall

All up in arms, red in the face
No gas in the tank so you’re losing the race
You were making decent headway
And pulling far ahead
“My time has finally come”
That’s what you said
The stars were all aligning
And we were so impressed,
But now. You can take a rest.
Hit a snag on your road to success,
Just a few things you’ll need to address
You say your misdeeds are all in the past
I think you might need to check your math
Made a promise you can’t hold yourself to
I’ll admit things are better without you
Been Dismissed and it’s none-too-soon
You’re reaching out, just learn to read the room
Your endless aggravation, we’ll learn to live without
You claim you’ve changed but not by my account
It’s time to clear the air,
It’s time to take out the trash
This time. You won’t get a pass.
It really shouldn’t be this way
You leave us here with nothing to say
I know you tried to make a positive change
But I can’t help it if it all went sideways
All up in arms, red in the face
No gas in the tank so you’re losing the race
Hit a snag on your road to success,
I don’t feel all that bad, I confess

Saboteur

Still trying to get your foot in the door
Moving up to a couch from the floor
Kick the same fucking can down the road
Can’t find an answer just a chance to unload
Can't help up fail
You'll never change
Hang it up, just quit
Please don't make me think about it
Mind is plagued, attention diverted,
Don’t act surprised when your plans fall through
In a perpetual identity crisis
Act like there’s always something better to do
Can't help up fail
You'll never change
Hang it up, just quit
Please don't make me think about it

Floating Weeds

Breaking free from the clutches,
Covering your tracks,
Start to walk without crutches
When suddenly you feel the need to turn back
I can see you’re about to implode
I can’t follow you down that road
Though I won’t come along
I’m not letting you go
When you come back to earth
Can you please let me know?
I can see you’re about to implode
I can’t follow you down that road
Though I won’t come along
I’m not letting you go
When you come back to earth
Can you please let me know?
I’m not trying to teach you a lesson
Don’t wanna kill your vibe
It’s just that sometimes I get the Impression
I’ll pick up the phone and find you’re not alive
Discomfort, Compounded
Searching for an out and you found it
A floating weed, drifting down
The river of your wasted life
Discomfort, Compounded
Searching for an out and you found it
Though I won’t come along
I’m not letting you go
When you come back to earth
Can you please let me know?

Facade

Your bed’s got two wrong sides, I know.
Can’t let it set you off, One can only hope.
You’ll make it through the day without a fight
Then come back home and get fucked up through the night
You’re Piping up, you’ve got something to say
Let’s see which face you’ll be wearing today
I’m getting tired, just keeping track
And I’m never getting this fuckin' time back
Keep me awake in the middle of the night
You’ve got nothing left to take so you can sleep tight
I Know the story so just skip to the end
There’s only so long I can sit and pretend.
Sink in self-pity, when one thing goes wrong.
Well-rehearsed, sing that familiar song.
The next day it’s a whole different thing
I see the everchanging color on your mood ring.
Life’s what you make it I know that it’s true
You make it difficult for everyone but you.
Another boast, am I meant to applaud?
Another layer, a different facade.
Keep me awake, in the middle of the night
You’ve got nothing left to take so you can sleep tight
I Know the story so just skip to the end.
There’s only so long I can sit and pretend.

It's Not Up To Me
03:04

Exchanging platitudes and half-hearted smiles,
I know you better than that, even though it’s been a while
No matter how much time had passed, never a skipped a beat,
Now here we are, and it feels like it’s the first time we meet.
Same name and face, but you’ve been replaced,
We’re all just hoping You won’t vanish without a trace
When you’re too close you don’t see the change
I’ll make another plea, but it’s not up to me
I Hate to bring this up, but you look real thin
you’ve got these tired shifty eyes,
where the fuck have you been?
Same name and face, but you’ve been replaced,
We’re all just hoping You won’t vanish without a trace
When you’re too close you don’t see the change
I’ll make another plea but it’s not up to me
Well, who am I judge,
I know I’m no stranger to having fun,
Admitting you fucked up
and asking for help Is not easy I know
Just do it for us.

Dark Turn
02:27

I’m Caught in a cycle,
Trapped in a maze,
Never coming up for air
I just gotta step away from the haze
I’m Losing my grip,
and nothing works
Nowhere to point the finger
and that’s what makes it worse
Swimming in deadly waters,
Infested with sharks,
I’m Running from vicious killers,
feeling weaker, it’s getting dark
I’m losing my grip,
and nothing works
Nowhere to point the finger
and that’s what makes it worse
Suddenly I wake up,
and Of course I find,
Nothing ever really changes,
I’m still stuck here wasting time.
Caught in a cycle, Trapped in a maze,
Sinking my time into mindless bullshit
Eyes glazed over all fucking day
I’m losing my grip,
and nothing works
Nowhere to point the finger
and that’s what makes it worse
I’m losing my grip,
and nothing works
Nowhere to point the finger
and that’s what makes it worse

Clouded

I should change my perspective you said
Easier said than done
Bad ideas are clouding my head
And I’d rather not see anyone
The goal slips further away from reach
And every new attempt is like pulling teeth
In the end the search yielded no results
Remind me once again why it’s not my fault
Despite all the second guessing and doubts
I’m doing better now as the odd man out
Held captive in this endless rut
Years thrown away, down the drain and for what?
Not sure why I believed
strength would come from within,
What patience I once had
has already run thin,
I Took a mental picture,
but I threw it away
It doesn’t help
to dwell on those simpler days
The goal slips further away from reach
And every new attempt is like pulling teeth
In the end the search yielded no results
remind me once again why it’s not my fault

Another Life

Got a request, it’s a simple thing
A small grievance, but you’ve had it coming
The next time you wanna think out loud
Do me a favor shut your fucking mouth
Digging deeper and doubling down
Spewing bile until we all fucking drown.
We go back so I’m trying to be nice,
But you’re the last person
I would ever ask for advice.
Holding court, you keep talking your shit.
Is it concern? or just an ego trip?
No one likes being told what to do
But some things are bigger than you,
It’s an attack on your pride, so it must be a lie
It’s just a shame, I gotta cut ties
The next time you wanna think out loud
Why don’t you spare us all another round!
I’ve got a small gripe, And I think I would like
to take a hammer to your windpipe
Holding court, you keep talking your shit.
Is it concern? or just an ego trip?
No one likes being told what to do
But some things are bigger than you,
It’s an attack on your pride, so it must be a lie
I gotta cut ties, I’ll see you in another life.

Wet Floor

Living the dream,
Dwelling on this reoccurring theme,
Something I can’t rid myself of,
And I’d like to think
that I’ve made my choice
But when it’s too quiet
I still hear that voice
Dragging me down
All of my instincts They return
The grand facade
So soon will burn
Never expected to feel so much pain
Moments are slipping away
Can’t stay dry so it’s Safe to say
Sun won’t shine on this rainy day
No more fun, so why should I stay?
“No harm done, have it your way”
I’m dreaming of mercy street
I swear they moved that sign
Let’s take the boat out
Wait until darkness comes
It’s only a matter of time
And I’d like to think
that I’ve made my choice
But when it’s too quiet
I still hear that voice
Dragging me down
And it’s calling me back
I Don’t know if I still have the strength
for a counterattack
I’m Unsure if I’ll ever be able
to really stray from the pack
Relearning to live in the real world
I don’t know how to act
I know you’re worried, I’m cause for concern
And it’s your trust that I still haven’t earned
I know I still have a lot to learn
I act like I got the time to burn
