Perfect

Nobody's perfect
Yeah right, as if
Doesn't mean that I'm perfect
I'll try, I'll miss
Why can't I be perfect
Be everything that you want me to be, yeah
I'll never be perfect
I'll always be the same old usual me

Groundhog Day
02:50
|
|||
|
Every day, feels the same
Up at noon, nothing new today
I didn't think I'd hate it this much
But it's the hardest thing to take
Medicine, forgot to take
Feeling worse now every day
I didn't think I'd hate it this much
But it's the hardest pill to take
Hold your breath and close your eyes
You say life is changing all the time
You think it's worth it in the end
But nothing seems to be changing
When will it end?
Will we be saved?
Will all the madness go away?
Do I have to relive the same damn day?
Eyes half closed
Holding phone
It's 1 PM and I'm still at home
Weeks pass by
It's routine
This can't be
Healthy
Life is hard when your mind is sick
But I'm sure that you know this
Getting up is a chore
I don't want this anymore
(Chorus)

Head Rants
04:34
|
|||
|
There’s no reason
For me to feel the way I do
No rhyme or reason
For me drown in gloom
A word of caution
I’m annoying to some
That’s the reason
I feel so spent and
Nobody listens to the shrieks that leave my mouth
Nobody cares enough to hear me scream and shout
Nobody takes a moment to just let me vent
My head is full of rants that I just need to let
Out
I’m overflowing
Please take me far away
I need a moment
To make sure that I’m sane
My minds explodin
Gunshots inside my brain
I wanna scream and shout
I wanna scream and
Take a second
To regain all my trust
Don’t bother textin’
Cause I will not respond
You’re just an obstacle
That’s standing in my way
That’s why my head is full
Of curses to your name
Nobody listens to the shrieks that leave my mouth
Nobody cares enough to hear scream and shout
Nobody takes a moment to just let me vent
My head is full of rants that I just need to let
Out
(Chorus)
There’s a thunderstorm of lies inside my brain
The constant sound of it makes me feel oh so drained
I can’t afford to lose myself to all this noise
And to be honest never sleeping’s quite annoying
(Chorus)

Back Again
03:26
|
|||
|
I've seen the light
I know it's right
But the words can't come out, can you help me say
I want to scream
These noisy dreams
Are ones of loss of love, and loss of faith
I'll never be, the man you wanted me to be
And it makes sense why you're never around
My mind will race just to find you,
My time I'll waste when I try to
I'll never hold you back, because you won’t come back again, back again,
You'd never come back here for me though,
I'm not the one you think that you need, so,
It doesn't matter because I'll never get you back again, back again
It's been a while
Since I've seen you smile
Is something going on, are you okay?
You need some time
And I need mine
But can't you try and talk to me today
I'll never shake
The feeling that you're faking
But you would never listen anyway
(Chorus)
You don't know what I'm feeling
You don't care how I'm feeling

Take Me Back
03:53
|
|||
|
I got a fear, feel some trouble lurking near
But I’m never gonna let myself scare.
It’s like a clock, always hear it, tick tock
I can feel it now, it’s raising my hair
But I won’t let you down
Least that’s what I say before I disappear
My words will fail me now
But that’s the opposite of what you wanna hear
Take me back to what I once knew
I’m never gonna hear the last of you
Take me back to what I once loved
Is it too late, or will you strike me from above
Take me back to when I once cared
Just listen to the words I say if you dare
Take me back to what I once knew
I’m never gonna hear the last of you
I got some time, gonna hear myself whine
While I’m waiting for someone who’s not near
I’m gonna lay in this sleep deprived brine
While I’m waiting for someone to come here
But I can’t hear you now
Least that’s what I say when I’m soaking in fear
My life force is draining now
But that’s the opposite of what I wanna hear
(Chorus)

Oblivious
03:20
|
|||
|
My voice is one of ghosts
Its like no one can hear
The pain that hurts the most
When nobody feels near
Can't even come to you
Because I won't be true
And even if I was it's not like you would even care
I don't think that it's hard to see
It's not anyone but me
Plainly clear and obvious
I am just oblivious you see
I am just oblivious you see
I am just oblivious you see
My time is running out
What is this all about
Seemingly no one's home
Inside my empty dome
The words are spilling so
I can't control their flow
I'll hurt and scar and bruise myself with this verbal abuse
I don't think that it's hard to see
It's not anyone but me
Plainly clear and obvious
I am just oblivious you see
I am just oblivious you see
I am just oblivious you see
You don't tell me when I mess up
You don't tell me when I'm wrong
I don't notice when I mess up
I don't notice when I'm wrong
You don't tell me when I mess up
You don't tell me when I'm wrong
I don't notice when I mess up
I don't notice when I'm wrong
I don't think that it's hard to see
It's not anyone but me
Plainly clear and obvious
I am just oblivious you see
I am just oblivious you see
I am just oblivious you see
I am just oblivious you see
I don't think that it's hard to see
It's not anyone but me
Plainly clear and obvious
I am just oblivious you see
Days when I don't hate my speech
Are now few and far between
Someone put a knife in me
I am just oblivious you see

I'm Cool [Interlude]
00:50
|

|
You know I’m cool when all the guys wanna be my friend
And every little girl here, they all wanna hold my hand
But I sold all of my songs
I’m probably gonna get sued
But that’s alright, as long as I get screwed
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Pieces of Me
03:25
|
|||
|
Can anyone really say there’s a reason we’re on this earth?
Can anyone give a reason for our lives from death to birth?
Can anyone truly know what our purpose is for life?
Can anyone really say that they know what’s right?
Pieces of me, pieces of you
Falling in line like they’re meant to
Pieces of love, pieces of truth
Passage of time, passage of youth
Pieces of me, pieces of you
Sat in their place like they’re meant to
Pieces of grace, with time it grew
Pieces of me, pieces of you
Can anyone really say they control the life they choose?
Can anyone really claim that they choose the things they do?
Can anyone really say that our lives are in our hands?
Can anyone really say they don’t have to live by demands?
(Chorus)
Pieces of me, pieces of you
Falling in line like they're meant to
Pieces of love, pieces of truth
Pieces of me, pieces you

Short Message
00:25
|
|||
|
I know what you’re trying to say
And I know the true meaning
You don’t like me, and that’s fine
But you don’t have to be a bitch
About it

Baby you’re so complicated
The way you’re putting me down
And when we go out with your friends, you act like you don’t want me around
And I get so frustrated
It always ends in a fight
Why bring out a candle when you won’t even see the light?
And every time you make me cry
And every time you make me cry
And every time you make me cry
I love you a little bit more
And every time we start to fight
We never seem to get it right
And every time you make me cry
I love you a little bit more
Baby we’re so complicated
Took a good thing and turned it around
I scream so loudly and you pretend not to hear the sound
And I get so frustrated
I feel like you cross the line
Sometimes you love me, and then you act like you don’t have the time
I’m ready to give up, then you remind me why I even started loving you
It’s the hardest thing I ever had to do
And I get so frustrated, it always ends in a fight
You say you love me then change your mind by the end of the night
(Chorus)
You're so complicated
I must make an abrupt statement
I just hate that your lust faded, I'm frustrated
I'm suffocating cause you're choking me blue
You pushed me off the edge and now I'm broken in two
Where half of me decides not to recognize your lies
And the other half of me just wants a moment of truth
My emotions are through
Twisted like the chains of a park swing
Cause you're a puppeteer pulling on my heart strings
You're an alien mothership with a tractor beam
Pulling me, attracting me back into this catastrophe
I put Novocaine on my solo game
And still the pain hurts
Lemme tell you how my brain works
I love you and I hate you
I love you then I hate you
I love you then I hate you
I love you then I hate you
I wanna leave but I'll be back, I'm sure
But every time you make me cry
I love you that much more
(Chorus)
And every time we start to fight
We never seem to get it right
It always comes back down
Baby you're so complicated
