Bad Timing 03:25
Killing for time, but I'm just ill-adjusted I never got much control over my wish anyway You really have all of it under control You must get tired having everything just so Just your fate And I'd tell you What I could do If I could do What I want to But I'll tell you What I need to And get through you And get through you I get the glance when I'm here every now and then I get a chill every time I think what you said So it goes I never wanted this whole thing to happen I was fine, I was gone, I was good then I'm sure you know And I'd tell you What I could do If I could to What I want to But I'll tell you What I need to And get through you And get through you

She's just a girl I know And if he's coming home She'll never let him go But when he goes away He never thinks of it He didn't want to stay He never let her down She went to visit him Traveled through many towns It was another dream That kept her scared to find Things weren't what they seemed She fought it all alone In another state It was a different tone It never meant to last Scared to say the words Or try to face the past

Saw the one for a moment Didn't know, off she went Felt myself get too fleeting Glad that it's still repeating I know what you will tell me So it's not meant to be here Letting go of your distance Just to join the resistance

Real 06:01
So we're here now Sitting on the floor There's a picture of you in my head Thinking of my war that I gotta face now But I can't think too logically And just let it go now But you're just better than I'll be Doesn't matter now Laying outside Getting close to you was better than it should have Has it hit yet? Hope I'm getting through my apologies now But I can't think so logically And just let it go now But you're just better than I'll be Doesn't matter now

Sleeping in Don't know where my friends are Getting colder But I can't get up so far I'd like to see you I'd like to see myself And where I'm going I think I'd hurt myself I should've known now I should've known you care Getting older Sucks if you're not there I hate the seasons I hate the days indoors Wasting time Waste as much before Sleeping in Don't know where my friends are Getting colder But I can't get up so far I'd like to see them I'd like to see myself Wasting time Waste too much myself

Cities 01:25

Killing time has never been so easy now I got off thinking that no one will show me how Further and further, I can't even do my own math Sputtering sentences, I'm forging a broken path She's coming back from what feels like an eternity (Coming back again, they just don't quit) She doesn't notice that she's void of apologies (Coming back again, they just don't quit) Forget your closest people, they are going to die I never got the chance to get up and ask them why But they'd just tell me to forget my systematics I get the feeling that I'm too dramatic I'm going back to school to show off what I don't have (Coming back again, they just don't quit) They'll just applaud me, give me pity on my behalf (Coming back again, they just don't quit) Supposed to try and care about what I could make I never wanted anything that I could take She left her house, left her things, left herself at the door But it's just something that I felt was gonna come before My friends will tell me that I'm way too gone to know my own fears (Coming back again, they just don't quit) But even then, I'd like to think that I'm beyond my years (Coming back again, they just don't quit)

Alone 04:44
Said I never once cared before Maybe that much is true Guess it's too late for everything Nothing ever came true Wasn't a man when I woke up today Telling myself I'm not fine There's really nothing here Scaring myself til' I'm blind Too all my different fears Locked all alone in my room It's really just a dream Knowing that I can't assume It's just not what it seems Us kids never will go anywhere That we try to go Told it never would be so fair But I don't want to know Wasn't a man when I woke up today Telling myself I'm not fine There's really nothing here Saving myself til' I'm blind Too all my different fears Locked all alone in my room It's really just a dream Knowing that I can't assume It's just not what it seems
