On the Verge 03:54
We all make promises that we can't keep Lay awake in the night coz we can't sleep Stay awake coz you're right in the dark deep Of your mind, and you just think that you can't breathe We all take and we break all the trust, and It destroys all the love and the justice And you know that you think that you must have Everything in line and perfect, it's just that Steep lies of a cheap kind rewind To the times of your peak mind Disguised as your dreams With your weak eyes Bleak signs Seek lines in between Deep kinds of sick minds Past haunts with the last thoughts Behind But they taunt and they cast sorts of a speech, signs So distraught with your life Caught in the lights blind Every day you suffer from events from your past times You're constantly fighting with yourself Wanting to scream, you wanna yell Lifting up that blade You're fighting with the urge Crying your eyes out every night Feeling this pain, not only slight Trapped inside this cage You're standing on the verge Coz you're down in the memories of what's gone But soon you gotta found out what's the lost cause Lost all of the costs, fall down When you stall and you crawl And it cost more, what for? Coz you're stuck in a cage and you just wait And you're feeling insane but it's just fate Trust feels so real That when it's too late You can actually feel it Start to break Felt this but I dealt with These things Blades that are hellish And I'm selfish Bring me to a place where I tell shit And it stings me to the point Of a held wish And I can't breathe And I can't see Don't start please Just believe when I say these things And you'll see It's a part of me But departing me No longer after me And now I'm starting free You're constantly fighting with yourself Wanting to scream, you wanna yell Lifting up that blade You're fighting with the urge Crying your eyes out every night Feeling this pain, not only slight Trapped inside this cage You're standing on the verge

Medicine 04:06
I've got this sickness and it's eating away Biting off more of me each day I'd thought I'd fly high, land fine Then the sky went and broke right then Shattered like a land mine Had gone off and destroyed everything around me From the top And straight down to the ground see I have been stepped on Issues to be addressed on I was lost, but then you came and found me I've been searching for a cure And I lost myself Couldn't find my way back And I lost my health I've been feeling down For a couple days now Is it you that's come around now to help? I've been searching for a cure Could it be you? Oh how I hope it is My words are true And Now just tell me What would you do What would you do if I What would you do if I called you my medicine Healed me from the pain I'm forever in Coz I felt it'd never end Living like I was my only friend What would you do if I called you my medicine My blood's pumping with this shit That I can't feel My head's sending me these thoughts That just aren't real They're just dreams and it Seems that I'm stuck here I'm all alone Could I be out of luck here? But when I saw you Everything just seemed to change And thank you Coz I was getting sick of seeing the same Days flying by, lies always trying, like Eating at me from the inside, silent strikes But they were turning violent That's not my type When it comes to fight or flight I'd rather take the sky Soaring over all these problems and issues But things started to change when I met you You were the vaccine Killing off the taxi's Carrying attacks, weak From the strength I lack, please Stick around and help fight off this pain So I never have to feel this shit again What would you do if I called you my medicine Healed me from the pain I'm forever in Coz I felt it'd never end Living like I was my only friend What would you do if I called you my medicine What would you do if I called you my medicine Healed me from the pain I'm forever in Coz I felt it'd never end Living like I was my only friend What would you do if I called you my medicine What would you do if I asked you to save me From how I've been feeling lately I can't believe Can't conceive That I've been deceived I need someone to help me Getting sick and tired of yelling Whoa-oh, oh-ho What would you do if I called you my medicine Healed me from the pain I'm forever in Coz I felt it'd never end Living like I was my only friend What would you do if I called you my medicine What would you do if I called you my medicine Healed me from the pain I'm forever in Coz I felt it'd never end Living like I was my only friend What would you do if I called you my medicine

Got me sitting in this different place of mind Everything I'm doing leaves me way behind Drugging up on bottles kinda makes me blind I'm wasting time, sitting in this caged device Ever since I made myself be living here Knowing now that it's cause I'm filled with fear Though I'm feeling everybody's hurtful drilling leers Spinning gears Sitting here, I'm still in tears During high school I was teased and bullied When I went home I cut my arm fully No one ever asked if I was fucking harmed Could he ever go back to the place Where he was always down, pulling Breaths from the space that was left in his chest Detest all the rest We're best now they're left in the dust And you know that I must try forget Coz I'm blessed with repent And I'm sent to defend I know that it hurt And they know that it worked Coz they left with a smirk Now I'm left with rebirth Coz I rose from the ground Without making a sound Though I'm drowning it out Coz I am king of the world And you will know my name I am king of myself And now I'm feeling sane I'll defeat all these scars Until my skin's the same Colour as it was before Before the hurt and shame You gotta get given the power to save yourself No matter how much you might want that razors help But I hope you know that these blades can tell That you've been sitting here thinking bout raising hell Your mind's drawing lines Making deals with demon's Going against a god That you don't believe in Even though sometimes You feel that you're dreaming Try to hide that inside You're screaming Haunted by thoughts of the past They lurk Never go away coz they last And they hurt They're absurd And you know that they're purpose is burnt By the flames of their words And the pains of their smirks With a knife to the wrist You can cut all the pain Out of your mind And out of your veins Without a life you've got nothing to lose But on the same page you've got nothing to gain Yeah you've taken their shit Yeah you've taken their hits And yeah you've taken their spit Go home with split lips And bruised eyes that you tried To disguise with lies Hiding away when you'd sit and you'd cry Coz you bury yourself In all the sorrow and shame But you gotta get back on your feet again To show them that you've won And not lost in the end That you're the only one On whom you can depend And it hurts and it hurts And it hurts worse, and it's worse Than being stabbed in the back A heartless attack, and it lacks Justification With endless suffocation You can end this situation Coz I am king of the world And you will know my name I am king of myself And now I'm feeling sane I'll defeat all these scars Until my skin's the same Colour as it was before Before the hurt and shame You were king of my mind You led me to defeat I am king of the blind I'll lead them till they see Coz I am king of the world And you will know it's true Coz I am king of the world So who the fuck are you All these lies And all this pain Is running through my veins All these marks And all these scars Coz I am king of the world And you will know my name I am king of myself And now I'm feeling sane I'll defeat all these scars Until my skin's the same Colour as it was before Before the hurt and shame You were king of my mind You led me to defeat I am king of the blind I'll lead them till they see Coz I am king of the world And you will know it's true Coz I am king of the world So who the fuck are you

Save Me 03:10
Lately I've been feeling a little under the weather But I don't know whether to tell you or not Lately I've been feeling that I can't get better So I just take a shot Then I take another Coz I'm down in the drinks Don't know what to think That maybe I should rot And destroy my body On alcohol and coffee But it doesn't seem like a lot Coz when you start You just can't stop Drop everything is falling apart Cough medicine Heart's pumping anything But the blood Thick as mud Bud's better than Fuck, no synonym To explain feeling this way Deranged, killing my brain Stains wanting to stay away Drilling So insane, still isn't tame Names running my brain To blame you for this game That I'm winning in (Drink) You know I wanna sink every last drop (Drink) You know I wanna drink till I can't stop Drink till my words slur Worse than a curse word Ride home in hearses And write verses That concern her (Think) You know I cannot think when I drink this (Think) You know I can't resist doing this shit Think about these words Sit, hitting up a verse Lit cigarettes to nurse Pit, edging up my nerves And I just want someone to come And save me from myself I am crying out for help Right now So please Save me from myself I'm sitting in the corner Feel so insane My life's all out of order Not in the right Frame of mind I came to find Everything that's made inside This case of mine Did you hear that? This here is a story It needs to be told It's not really that gory It's about how I mould myself And hold myself Killing off the cold and well Going to hell Sitting in this (Prison cell so) Tears running down my cheeks (And I fell low) Straight from my very peak I'm weak and tired I seek to find My little wires decide These different signs Try to hide em But if you let me speak Straight from the heart, you'll see How everything was Falling apart for me It was my only option to drown in seas Of expensive little friends Their name's whiskey This reality's haunting me Scaring me, taunting me Honestly it's frightening It's striking me as hard to see With these dreams, memories Put to rest with this Turkey Failing tests My fuckin' vision's blurry I learned to put my faith into something else Something that's in a bottle and sits on the shelf Something that's always there when I'm needing help Something that listens to my screaming yells And I just want someone to come And save me from myself I am crying out for help Right now So please Save me from myself I just want someone to come Save me from myself I am crying out for help Right now So please Save me from myself

Reflections 03:40
Don't know where it started Don't know how I got here All I know is that I Don't wanna have them leering Over everything I do Just believe me, you I'll get out of this place Hopefully one day soon It hurts to have them hating I'm in such a state and It's so infuriating And from the mouths of Satan They speak words of injustice Because I did you wrong But I should have known From the start, all along that It's hard to trust someone And let them get so close And when the day is done They're the ones that you love most And they break down that wall And they find a way inside And you regret it all So many nights you've cried I wish I was a better person That I treated you right I wish I had enough courage in me To lose a fight, but I always was too proud My voice was way too loud It always lifted itself up Way up above the clouds I've always had trouble telling you how I felt, but Leaving you was the thing That most probably dealt the Biggest blow Of this entire situation here Just listen to these words and think Just forget my dear All the troubles we had And all the time we lost I always thought I was right Now look what it has cost I was so happy Now I'm sad and lonely and depressed Constantly reminiscing Hoping we have something left Ohh-whoa-oh-oh Ohh-whoa-oh-oh Ohh-whoa-oh-oh Ohh-whoa-oh-oh I look in the mirror And what do I see A reflection of uncertainty I try to see clearer But it's not up to me What I've tried to be Ohh-whoa-oh-oh Ohh-whoa-oh-oh Ohh-whoa-oh-oh Ohh-whoa-oh-oh
