Bled 03:24
I've poured my lifeblood All over this Endless days and torn from love To give you something to miss You've bled me dry This year has bled me dry I've lost the drive This year has bled me dry I've had conversations Across a thousand towns With people I will never see again You mean so much to me now I've seen redemption At the sight and the sound Of where I've bled my heart into Of what I've bled my heart into You've bled me dry We're far from home And I will never understand why This is all I've wanted And it's bleeding me dry We're tired and fading And i've pushed this too far This is all I've wanted And it's bleeding me dry I don't want this anymore

The year's almost over And I'm trying to forget The memories that nearly left me for dead I'd never admit to anyone But I still hear your voice Inside my head The year's almost over and I'm trying to remember What I did this year And it's almost December I've spent the past two years with nothing but a life online and a sea of faces that I don't even recognise. I've wasted so much time, money and effort on things that just don't even matter; drugs, alcohol, women and the like. And as a result, I am nothing but a minimum wage dropkick with no aspirations, no qualifications, no motivations, nothing! This wasn't how it was meant to be, this wasn't the master plan! I don't want this anymore We're worth so much more than this Give me the future beyond all my failures Give me the past for just one more chance

Newcastle 04:06
I miss not knowing your warmth in this world I swear I feel colder now That I felt your head beside mine And I felt it without I swear the earth could tremour The skies could tremble and fall But that was May, it's almost December And this is the hardest year of them all I've only been here for twenty years I've got a thousand stories and one But I can't tell them anymore Cos you're in every one I've been here for twenty fucking years And I've only just begun To envisage a world without you To envisage a world without Fate has made sure All of the good die young What would I lose to forget you What could I lose to regret What part of me could I carve out Broken limbs or cigarettes I don't want this anymore As I sit in this room alone The quiet could speak so loud Could tell you stories of where I've come from And who I've walked without You're a shadow on the wall The light just won't burn out Who will hear me now? I miss not knowing your warmth in this world I swear I feel colder now That I felt your head beside mine And I felt it without I swear the earth could tremour The skies could tremble and fall But that was May, it's almost December And this is the hardest year of them all

Expectations 03:52
The only thing that we all have in common Is that we're all born and we all die Our purpose is to make a difference Between birth and death Whether to stay idle, content with little Or to change perception of our daily living Existence should be selfish Satisfying first for you I live my life for me Woah-oh Woah-oh You can't bring me down I've spent my whole live trying to make others happy Before I even thought of my own peace of mind How can I tell you that you must be happy with your life If I can't even get mine right

Keepers 05:05
Late night drives To the middle of nowhere Fatigue fills my body And my minds in despair Lips lined with ulcers And lacerations My psyche welcomes These alterations Haven't slept right In over a year My motivation's Been replaced by fear My once bright eyes Now fade in the dark These demon's in my head Have made their mark I've said it before All I need is sleep You're all just make believe You're all just in my head The demons lie within my head You're nowhere to be seen You're all just in my head The demons lie within my head I tried screaming out But my words came up blank I tried making tears But my heart just sank The headlights inspire The final leap Before my soul Becomes one with the deep You're all just make believe You're all just in my head The demons lie within my head You're nowhere to be seen You're all just in my head The demons lie within my head I don't want this anymore You're all just make believe You're all just in my head The demons lie within my head You're nowhere to be seen You're all just in my head The demons lie within my head Release the dark in me Clear my head and set me free Release the dark in me Bleach these scars and set me free
