Don't call this a fight when you know that this is war This has gotten out of hand Just shouting out things that we regret How did this go this far? I see everything much clearer Is it time to shed my skin Or time for me to give in When you know I've tried And failed so many times before So don't call this a fight When you know that this is war I’ve lost my voice again Screaming my lungs out just to pretend That this is a dream? Will this ever have an end You know this fight has come to last You made fake promises in the past When you know I've tried And failed so many times before So don't call this a fight When you know that this is war There’s a pain to find in my carefree heart I think I found my way But by the test of time, I overplayed my part It seems I've lost my way You told me I was worth your time But instead, I'm drowning in your lies You told me I was worth your time But instead, I'm drowning in your fucking lies When you know I've tried But failed so many times before So don't call this a fight When you know that this is war There’s a pain to find in my carefree heart I think I found my way But by the test of time, I overplayed my part It seems I've lost my way

Reverie 03:34
When I Bleed I can't comprehend All the thoughts and energies haunting my head oh What happens when, I let them out Will they, stay around When I bleed I pour my thoughts into the sinking sand wear my heart up my sleeve I need I'm only searching for a helping hand Or someone to believe In the light in me Even though I have lost my sight I see doubts in every eye Dreams can make you believe But In mind I'm just an empty memory My greatest fear is that the words I say That they would fade away When I bleed I pour my thoughts into the sinking sand wear my heart on my sleeve I need I'm only searching for a helping hand Or someone to believe In the light in me Hoping for someone to find me Hoping for someone to find me But I need to believe In the light in me With my thoughts buried in the sand I leave myself behind And when I close my eyes I see signs That I can’t read My heart is marching for you Will you come and save me now? I need to belive In the light in me I bleed I pour my thoughts into the sinking sand wear my heart up my sleeve I need I'm only searching for a helping hand Or someone to believe In the light in me I need to know that I am here not just a faded memory is there no one else who care My dream, my reverie

What am I supposed to think? About these circumstances Second chances Am I left to swim or sink What am I supposed to do? When hope has left me And fear it strikes me And I can't seem to make it through We just need to fight Fight for our lives Why am I Still standing after all this time How could I Make it when I'm speechless, deaf, and blind I thought that I was left to the undertow Turns out the currents lead you to the light below The chances that we once had Is there anything left To save us From the mistakes we made When the good among us Have lost their way And all the hope that we thought we lost is the only light that remains Why am I Still standing after all this time How could I Make it when I'm speechless, deaf, and blind I thought that I was left to the undertow Turns out the currents lead you to the light below (even in the darkest waters) the brightest light will glow I've never been so far away I've always known just what to say I've never been this much astray always known I'd find my way I've never felt so On my own I know I'm all Alone I've always known Hope will lead me Home Can someone show me a reason a chance to see things clear Let me know there's a time where all of the shadows will disappear Why am I Still standing after all this time How could I Make it when I'm speechless, deaf, and blind I thought that I was left to the undertow Turns out the currents lead you to the light below (even in the darkest waters) the brightest light will glow The chances that we once had Is there anything left To save us

Don't you ever get tired of these shallow waters? If we could just find something that matters We're blinded by the light For all, we used to be And all we thought that we could keep To wake up somewhere else Without a clue of where to run We gave up everything Just to see if we could fly I became everything I swore to save you from Are we all so blind? Have we lost sight of where to run Have we lost our minds? Looking down of a barrel of a loaded gun Don't you ever get tired of these shallow waters? With no reality left in sight If we could just find something that matters Instead, we're blinded by the light Blinded by the light I guess this is it this is as far as it gets And now there's nothing left we were never meant to fly With no one to lead Just a few searching for the remedies Look at the scars we leave Turning stars into enemies Where will it end? When we all escape into make-belief? Are we all the same? Have we lost all sense of me? Don’t you ever get tired of these shallow waters? With no reality left in sight If we could just find something that matters Instead, we’re blinded by the light And what are we to do with all the other? All the ones who care When all our hopes and dreams have shattered Can we still breathe the open air? Can we still breathe the open air?

Atlas 04:24
I don't know why This is the time and place Or why we have to say goodbye I'm setting you free As I carry this weight I hope you'll always be deaf to my screams For now just live and breathe Don't you worry about fighting my demons with me I'll give you wings so you can fly Forget everything about you and I I will lift the weight for you I'll wither away for you When the stars align We close our eyes And watch the night come alive We both know it’s time No more lies Its time we say goodbye This is my curse This is what I endure So that you'll be safe for better or for worse when I'm gone I'll still hold the stars All for you to carry on I will take the pain for you I'll waste away for you All for you And though it breaks my heart I can finally fall apart When the stars are line We close our eyes and watch the night come alive (come alive) We both know it's time No more lies it time we say goodbye (goodbye) So don't hang on when the weight it breaks me Just let go when the darkness takes me I can feel the hole in my heart But you can't see the void in my eyes And I can't carry on Carrying The weight of this world I know we spent a long time thinking That you would never end up being On your own All alone But this is the way it has to be This is the weight I carry On my own All alone When the stars align We close our eyes And watch the night come alive (come alive) We both know it’s time No more lies It’s time we say goodbye (goodbye) So don't hang on when the weight it breaks me Just let go when the darkness takes me All I want is for you to break free Promise me that you won't remember me
