In the beginning I knew just what I wanted to do
Write these songs to help all of you pull through
I have always thought that we should a positive mark on those we meet
And always leave things better than we found em
But now I see I’m angry, I’m fucking bitter and depressed
So I am sorry if I’m not there
Now I see I’m angry, I’m fucking bitter and depressed,
So I am sorry if I’m not there
In the last year or two, I watched my friends all move away
My path in life crumbled beneath me,
And my heart, I damn near killed
In the beginning I knew just what I wanted to do
Write these songs to help all of you pull through
I have always thought that we should a positive mark on those we meet
And always leave things better than we found em
But now I see I’m angry, I’m fucking bitter and depressed
So I am sorry if I’m not there
Now I see I’m angry, I’m fucking bitter and depressed,
So I am sorry if I’m not there
I don’t know if I think about suicide more often than I should
Just a pulling a fucking trigger
And painting the walls with my loneliness
But know that’s not an option don’t even let it cross your mind
If I can share my only piece of light
I’ll scream it til I die
I will never give up
The dark will never win this fight
It may be a never ending pursuit of what I need
But if that’s what it takes then I’ll claw until I bleed
I’ll never stop climbing from this pit I’m in
Until I’m standing top side, face in the wind

Walk Away

Don’t you lie to my fucking face
I asked you for the truth
Trust is all we have in this life
And you ended that tonight
Now you’re asking for a third chance
You must be out of your goddamn mind
The sad thing is I still wish
I could be there for you
There is no doubt in my mind
You’re heading for tough fucking time
But I risked my ass before
And I’m not putting it on the line
Won’t be your proving ground
The sacrificial lamb that saves your soul
This time I’m walking away
And leaving this black fucking hole
I don’t know what to say
You have dug your own grave
I am walking away
Walking away now
You say you learned your lesson
That you’d never do it again
But that’s not a chance I’ll take
There is no doubt in my mind
You’re heading for tough fucking time
But I risked my ass before
And I’m not putting it on the line
Won’t be your proving ground
The sacrificial lamb that saves your soul
This time I’m walking away
And leaving this black fucking hole

Never Alone

So many times I’ve been in this town alone
Driving down the highway I pick up the phone
Knowing that you’ll be there
Doesn’t matter what we say
Sanity is always
A satellite away
If you came here alone tonight
Just grab the family at your side
If you came here alone tonight
Just grab the family at your side
I hope this a place of safety
A place for boys and girls
A place for any cool kids
And square pegs in round holes
I hope this is a place of safety
The place that you were told
Don’t have to deal with bullshit
A harbor form the world
If you came here alone tonight
Just grab the family at your side
If you came here alone tonight
Just grab the family at your side
