Long Vacation

I'm done with being the good guy
I'm done with being polite
Get away with murder
Stand up, and do what feels right
No conversations
No expectations
Just like a fucking
Fucking long vacation
Got no rules (yeah)
Hate 'em rules (yeah)
Come on, crank it up a notch
And whatever we do...
Let's not look back
Let's not look back
They wanna play me just like a fool
I'm not your bitch, we're not at school
I ain't taking your shit
'Cause I could rip your fucking face apart
No motivation
No destination
Just like a fucking
Fucking long vacation
Got no rules (yeah)
Hate 'em rules (yeah)
We could drive along the road
'Cause we got nowhere else to go
Got no rules (yeah)
Hate 'em rules (yeah)
Come on, crank it up a notch
And whatever we do...
Let's not look back
No conversations
No expectations
Just like a fucking
Fucking long vacation
They talk shit behind my back
I pretend it's alright
But I got this feeling deep inside
Like I wanna hit you with a baseball bat
Yeah, you heard me right
Got no rules (yeah)
Hate 'em rules (yeah)
We could drive along the road
'Cause we got nowhere else to go
Got no rules (yeah)
Hate 'em rules (yeah)
Come on, crank it up a notch
And whatever we do...
Let's not look back
Let's not look back
One fucking long vacation
One fucking long vacation
One fucking long vacation
One fucking long vacation

Insecure

When I look into the mirror
Yeah I can't help but turn my eyes away
And I've been wearing baggy clothes
So no one would see what my body really looks like
I know, I know, I know
This life is too short to live it like this
But I can't change it
Show me love, show me love
'Cause I'm insecure
Show me love, show me love
But I'll still be insecure
You can say that I'm special, yeah
You can tell me you need no one else
Show me love, show me love
But I'm still insecure as hell
Yeah, I'm insecure
I'm still insecure as hell
Yeah, I'm insecure
It's in my head but I can't change it
All these thoughts are killing me
Sneak eating every day, but no one needs to know
'Cause they'll think I'm not okay, well am I?
Too scared to ask for help, yeah no one needs to know
In case it has a name, well I don't need to know
I know, I know, I know
This life is too short to live it like this
But I can't change it
Show me love, show me love
'Cause I'm insecure
Show me love, show me love
But I'll still be insecure
You can say that I'm special, yeah
You can tell me you need no one else
Show me love, show me love
But I'm still insecure as hell
Yeah, I'm insecure
I'm still insecure as hell
Yeah, I'm insecure
It's in my head but I can't change it
Show me love
(In case it has a name, well I don't need to know)
'Cause I'm crying out loud when no one's around
It's out of control now
You don't know how it feels to know there's a flaw in your mind
I know there is more hidden behind the word "insecure"
But no one needs to know
Show me love, show me love
'Cause I'm insecure
Show me love, show me love
But I'll still be insecure
You can say that I'm special, yeah
You can tell me you need no one else
Show me love, show me love
But I'm still insecure as hell
Yeah, I'm insecure
I'm still insecure as hell
Yeah, I'm insecure
It's in my head but I can't change it
Show me love, show me love

Better Now

Everybody's got a story they can't tell, hm
Everybody's going through something no one cares about
Turn the lights on once again
Look around, it's 4am
Oh, the nightmares keep coming back
All the voices in your head
Follow you up to your bed
Yeah, it all haunts you at night
You're falling, you're fading
You're crashing down
Are you failing? Are you letting them down?
Always caught up in your play-pretend
Where the lies don't ever seem to end
Living through a screen with all your friends
But deep down you know you're all alone again
Can you make it stop?
Are you feeling better now?
Can you make it stop?
Are you feeling better now?
Everybody's got a story they can't tell, hm
Everybody puts on a fake smile and says they're okay
See the look upon your face
Getting gloomier day by day
Yet nobody notices that
You can't stop it when it starts
You can't mute what's on your mind
Yeah, it all haunts you at night
You're falling, you're fading
You're crashing down
Are you failing? Are you letting them down?
Always caught up in your play-pretend
Where the lies don't ever seem to end
Living through a screen with all your friends
But deep down you know you're all alone again
Can you make it stop?
Are you feeling better now?
Can you make it stop?
Are you feeling better now?
But you're not getting better, no
Yeah, you're not feeling better now
You're falling, you're fading
You're crashing down
Are you failing? Are you letting them down?
Always caught up in your play-pretend
Where the lies don't ever seem to end
Living through a screen with all your friends
But deep down you know you're all alone again
Can you make it stop?
Are you feeling better now?
Can you make it stop?
Are you feeling better now?
Are you feeling better now?
Are you feeling better now?
Are you feeling better now?

Shame On Us
02:39
|
|

|
Watch my tears go down the drain
While the faucet's running
Oh, it's getting cold again
Watch my legacy
Picture-perfect social media
No one really cares about
It doesn't feel like this is me anymore
And I don't know what I'm fighting for
We just want to forget about it all now
We get high every time we're feeling low
We keep saying that it's gonna be alright
But we know it's not, it's all for show
So shame on us , shame on us
Oh, these voices in my head
They won't leave me alone
Turning rights into wrongs
Another sip until I don't feel a thing
Just pour it all, let's make it rain
We just want to forget about it all now
We get high every time we're feeling low
We keep saying that it's gonna be alright
But we know it's not, it's all for show
So shame on us , shame on us
We just want to forget about it all now
We get high every time we're feeling low
We keep saying that it's gonna be alright
But we know it's not, it's all for show
So shame on us , shame on us (yeah)
So shame on us , shame on us

I still try to sing myself to sleep
Like I did when I was just a child
Too many questions pounding through my head
And too many answers I can't find
I gotta keep myself from giving up again
I gotta learn to move on
I don't wanna fall apart
I don't wanna be who I am anymore
We're all so young yet so forlorn, oh
I'm caught up in my play pretend
Numb the pain 'til I find the cure
Stay with me while I dream alone
So I'm screaming until it hurts
I'm the light in the dark, but I'm fading
I'm the light in the dark, but I'm fading
One, two, three, how's it gonna be?
I wish that I could feel alive
One, two, three, want a piece of me?
I'll grant your wish and then I'll smile
You won't really notice what's behind
The color of my eyes
The spark is gone, and so is my mind
I don't wanna be fake but I'm a liar
'Cause everything I say is staged
So I don't even trust what I say anymore
We're all so young yet so forlorn, oh
I'm caught up in my play pretend
Numb the pain 'til I find the cure
Stay with me while I dream alone
So I'm screaming until it hurts
I'm the light in the dark, but I'm fading
I'm the light in the dark, but I'm fading
I'm the light in the dark, but I'm fading
I'm the light! I'm the light!
I'm the light, I'm the light in the dark
I'm the light, I'm the light in the dark
(Numb the pain 'til I find the cure)
I'm the light, I'm the light in the dark
I'm the light, I'm the light in the dark
Oh I'm the light!
