- All You Are Is History
I'm a realist and an optimist
But I swear to you, I'm not getting over this
Walking tall in a small town
Full of yourself when you're feeling down
And that's all that matters to you
Can't pretend anymore
Talk is cheap, I said that before
- Around The World And Back
[Verse 1: Derek DiScanio]
Been around the world and back this year
Told myself I wanna face this fear
But I don't think I can stand on my own
She's got eyes like spring, legs like the summer
Everybody says she looks just like her mother
But I think she wants that left alone
- Critical
I’ve always wanted what I can’t have
and I’ve been making it a note to feel what’s left to feel
and put my shoulder to the wheel
Everything about me used to have a mind of it’s own
I’ve got what’s left of me, some positivity
and no more waiting on a dial tone
because I’ve loved and lost a cause
and that’s enough to never let you forget me
- Crystal Ball
When it all began, was it time that we asked for?
Or was it anything to feel complete forevermore?
Wanna see myself like I used to back then
But every time I turn around I’m in LA again
Don’t take this for granted, That’s not how we planned it
I know, we’re tearing these pages
Before we get to watch it unfold
- Deadly Conversation
What indifferent, to this deadly conversation,
I know that you know that we both know it is
I wonder if you still think I'm right there,
You would make up your mind
Slower then the changing of the seasons.
Wouldn't you know that I have come to terms?
That wouldn't you care if I choked up and stopped my breathing
- Easy Enough
You've got me thinking about it.
Don't know my way around it.
Got me wishing I could say the things I don't.
See, I was traveling; the mess that we were in
could only make me wanna stay out on the road.
But when the trust falls, missed phone calls,
long live the problem child.
- Elevated
Pulled aside as if I was the wrong one,
You said it all and you made me the lost one.
Elevated by your greatest mistake, now I'm all alone.
I bet you couldn't tell that I felt the same way,
Struggling just to get to the next day.
I'm not force fed lies while I'm by your side.
Shaking your head doesn't change this.
- Hard To Please
You've got a plan inside a deep breath,
but it always comes out the same.
I never said there'd be a last chance.
Looks like I'm leaving the fast lane.
I've been told to find The Finer Things,
but you know that won't make sense to me.
You followed your past mistakes.
- Losing Myself
I said I'll always remember the wood grain
Beneath my feet in a busy street
I never said I was angry but I think I'm still in misery
But it's what I needed and you took me by surprise
Sometimes I think I'm bound for losing it all
And I thinking I'm weighing, I think I'm weighing us down
But no, I won't fall, and I wouldn't trade it, I wouldn't trade it
- Mind Bottled
Sweat the days away
When I was waiting and no one was around
To be interesting
And I tried to find a way
To follow footsteps away from my hometown
I wasn't listening
My heart's beating so you know I'm alive
- Mine is Gold
Wait just a little bit longer
Before you stab me in the back and walk away
‘Cause I’ve grown a little bit stronger
And now you’re choking on those deadly words you ate
I can’t wait to watch you fall
Like the castle you built on sand
- Secrets Acoustic
You caught me in the right place at the right time
So I'll just dive right in
Say you've got a blank space in your right mind
Well here's my second wind
Oh, your idea of me blown away, away
Something in the past tense didn't make sense for this to follow through
What did you expect to happen? Were you mad then
- Shades of Gray
Back and forth we always take our time growing up,
not knowing what's at stake before we change.
So give me a chance and I'll take it, make it or break it.
Time can only tell us who we are.
So, can I please just have your name.
So they say, there are shades of gray in a lifetime.
If that is so, I'll let you know that I'm looking on the bright side.
What's the point of being at this party?
