You make a scene
Slam a car door parked out in the street
Too numb to believe
I only watch you out through my window
Out through a window
I watch out through a window
What part of me did you pretend to like for company?
Ignore what’s true
I finally feel like I can too
I watch, I watch you
I couldn’t stop myself
You’d fake it and I’d take it and my hands push through
Right through the window, slam into the mirage of you
Fighting the urge to crawl over glass to get to you
From up on the second story
I could rewrite the story
But I’ll be damned before I do
You said you’d do it your own way and I hope that I hope you do
You said you never meant to betray me but I see now
I see the truth

Self Help

Take it all away this time
Pain is worth the gain
A story they all sold
Put your hand to the flame
Get burned again
I’m so sick of these lessons the universe keeps sending over my way
Over and over
Again, again, again
Take it all away this time
Self help is no help at all
“Pride comes before the fall”
I remember the last time I couldn’t fix it for a friend
I still pretend
To change, to change, to change
It doesn’t matter. If I can see the calamity coming from far away.
I won’t change. I can make the same mistakes.
I’m not better than the last time.
Self help is no help at all
Pride comes before the fall

The Weight

The debt it drags me way down
Priceless hours the pain is ours
The debt it drags me way down
These hands will pull me down
A sweet departure the devil watches me
Nurture all of my devotions
Tangled in the emotions
These hands will pull me down
Crabs in a barrel pulling victims back in the spiral
Priceless hours I don’t meant to start fires
You put out for my sake
A price to pay the debt, the weight
It drags me down
I avoid the fate
A price to pay
But change feels like death when
Change feels like death when
Change feels like death when done
You’ll sleep alone
I’ll leave at sunrise when the colors bleed in the sky
It’s 5am - I’ll drive alone
I hope you forget I was there
Hands will pull me down
Change feels like death when done right
Hands will pull me down
What was there dissolves in daylight
I’m pulled to a new destination
The road is lonely but peaceful
I remember your face as you soundly slept
But I still chose to walk away
I feel the hands begin to tighten
Their grip on my perception
They begin to pull me down under
Into the pitch black of solitude
Hands will pull me down
Change feels like death when done right
Hands will pull me down
What was there dissolves in daylight

Sitcom Show

I want a shock just to feel it
Hits me so hard it chatters my teeth
I’ve been down this path before
When I feel this need
When I’m feeling low
I want you to know
None of this was unplanned
When I’m feeling low in my sitcom show
Play me on demand
It’s not that it’s unappealing
But we’ve been down this path before
When we force these feelings
I’m left wanting more
Feeling so light
Feeling low
You’ll crack the same jokes
The punch line hasn’t changed since before
For all for the same folks
Each day can be such a chore
I I think I’ve seen this playing out before
The kind of lie I’ve been looking for
Looking for a shock to jolt my routine
So hard it chatters my teeth

Keep moving on
Just like the last time
Head down eyes up
Just like the last time
Just like the last time
Things will work out just fine
Just like the last time
Cause it's not the first time you've survived
This is a fight song
You've got to keep striking on
This is your fight song
Sing it loud and we’ll sing along
Keep moving on
Keep going on
Just like the last time
Keep moving on just like the last time
Keep moving on
Just like the last time
But don’t give up
You might be tired
Do not go gently into the night
Just like the last time
Rage against the dying of the light
It’s not the first time
You’ve got to keep striking on and on
Never the last time
Sing it loud and we’ll sing along
Keep moving on
This is a fight song
One of the many people will sing just for you
