Are we going anywhere We were all taught  to consume To keep progressing its unrelenting There is no end to this room Were left in constant motion Running with nowhere to hide They smile and shove it down our throats With no concern for our lives "Give us your money, give us your time Give us your soul, it will be fine" When it all busts into flames Theyll blame it on the ghosts "Give us your money, give us your time Give us your soul, it will be fine" Take a second look and see Their hands are soiled with our insides In the shadows theres a way Looking around, up and down Just keep hoping, the doors not closing Hurry up our time is now The rivers never ending Fighting upstream, cannot find A way to solid ground But who is really in control? There is no way to stop it The pieces here they never fit But who is really in control? There is no way to stop it The pieces here they never fit And all we want to do is quit And when it all busts into flames They'll blame it all on the ghosts Take a second look and see Their hands are soiled with our insides With our insides We gave you our money, we gave you our time You took our soul, so why isn’t it fine? Thats the price you fucking pay You took it all To feed your hollow existence We paid the price And you threw all of us aside You took it all Locked up inside you labyrinth We paid the price You took our souls

Kelly goes Can we get a steady movement? On this plane of abnormality. Losing sleep. And I can't find out what the truth is. I'll find it buried somewhere within me. My life's a fucking game of hide and seek I'd rather be Six feet under ground. Silenced by the sound. Of all your cold regret. But don't forget me yet. Six feet under ground. Silenced by the sound. Of all your cold regret. But don't forget me yet. Bury me with all my insecurities Bury me with all my insecurities Solace seems to be Six feet under ground. Silenced by the sound. Of all your cold regret. But don't forget me yet. Six feet under ground. Silenced by the sound. Of all your cold regret. But don't forget me yet. but dont forget me yet As I watch the floor cave in. I sink into my seat. Never understanding why, Things can't be the way they should be. As I watch the floor cave in.I sink into my seat. Never understanding why, Things can't be the way they should be. Be the way that they should be So, let's perpetuate this motion. I'll be there when it all falls down. And while your reaching for the ceiling You'll find me six feet underground.

The time has come To leave this place when i wake up It’s just begun I know That ill find my way I hope I look for brighter days, and better things A place that's calm and clear A chance to hit reset In a world I’ll call my own. Its days like these
Where I sit and wait For something to come and Fucking take me away 
They tell me that its just temporary 
Just breathe and Ill be fine
 With the pressures rising 
And my heart rate climbing 
All I want to do is leave
My mind starts turning 
And my stomach’s churning
I don’t know what I believe Make a vow that when I wake up I will throw this in my car We’ll leave this town, Bury my fuck ups I look for brighter days, and better things A place that's calm and clear A chance to hit reset I look for brighter days, and better things A place that's calm and clear A chance to hit reset In a world I’ll call my own. Starting with my best foot forward I look ahead This time Ill try not to fuck up If not now then when Sometimes its just impossible 
Never seeming to let up
Believing its improbable 
Not sure if I should give up Give up on my friends

Frenemies 03:07
Fuck you, I hope you burn in hell.
You think you're so damn special
Yeah, I'm talking to myself.
It's true, you brought this on yourself
You couldn't keep your mouth shut
You nee to fucking grow up 
Here I am making enemies of friends.
Burning bridges, killing time.
So it ends, now let me find find myself once again.
Cause i know I’ll make it out alive And hey, I hope you're doing well.
Just know you don't deserve this
I hope it was all worth it Worth the time spent Lost where my mind went When the thinking stopped Our lives were blocked Here I am making enemies of friends.
Burning bridges, killing time.
So it ends, now let me find find myself once again.
Guess I'm staying in tonight. So leave it up to me, To fuck this whole thing up And since we won’t agree Just shut the fuck up Without out conversation Can’t fight this frustration With no motivation Mutual procrastination And as perspectives change, they unveil new shadows Shedding light on what once was in the dark, I felt it slip from between my fingers There was no attempt to stop it, I didn’t try to grab it I felt it slip away, it might be for the better We let it slip away I felt it slip from between my fingers There was no attempt to stop it I felt it slip from between my fingers You didn’t try to grab it

Flying so high, you sometimes will get burned When you wait for whats right, you’ll never need to turn And take a step back, so you can take two forward Never forget whats been lost, and be ready to learn Racking my brain, but it just wont fit Faster and faster, this shit never seems to quit Vision blurred from these bloodshot eyes But nothing else matters, we will always try Cut the ties, draw the lines Assess and adjust, follow your plan Assess and adjust, the plan for progress I won’t let apathy, get the fucking best of me If I could get my head out of these fuckin clouds Then if wouldn’t be so hard And flying so high, sometimes I won’t get burned When I wait for whats right, ill never need to turn And take a step, back so you can take two forward Never forget whats been lost and be ready to learn Never forget whats been lost Never leave it up to them Not in their hands Waiting on what will never come But wishing it would As I sit here Where I’ve been so many times before It would be a lie to tell you That i wouldn’t like to walk right out that door As I sit here Where I’ve been so many times before It would be a lie to tell you That i wouldn’t like to walk right out that door As I sit here
