Another pendulum is swinging towards the left and to the left again
I tried to stay to the right and do what's right and we're all aware it's a constant fight You know it I've been the one away I'll be the first to say Now I've become the rat in experiments that I invent and I put myself through I can't explain the process in my brain when all I say comes out the same Like white noise I've been the one away I'll be the first to say As a way I've been, it's not cool To be the one with nothing I've always got nothing |

That's the way I like it
That's the way I want it That's the way I like it And that's the way I want it I'm a dumb ass, I go too fast When I shouldn't be moving at all I know I'm the last and your only chance At having something meaningful I won't ever be tricked into thinking that she loves me Because no one does and no one will And that's the way I like it And that's the way I want it I jump into things, buying wedding rings When I can't keep myself in line Try to stop myself, put it on its shelf And save it for another time I won't ever be tricked into thinking that they love me Because no one does and no one will And that's the way I like it And that's the way I want it That's the way I like it That's the way I want it Here I am again, left to my own devices This is the last time anyone can bring me down I won't ever be tricked into thinking that she loves me Because no ones does and no one will I won't ever be tricked into thinking that they love me Because no one does and no one will |

I feel the train changing tracks
The sound of that, I reminisce I try so hard to stay intact No one knows, no one cares I'll take whatever you've got I'll take whatever you feed me When it's time for me to come down There's never a compromise, you know I'll take whatever you give And what you give I'll put in me When it's time for me to come down There's never a compromise, you know it, you know it I feel the thoughts that you don't have Think of me, you probably don't Disappointment's all I know And all I do but I say I won't I feel the train changing tracks The sound of that, I reminisce Disappointment's all I know And all I do but I say I won't I'll take whatever you've got And what you give I'll put in me I'll take whatever you've got You know it, you know it |

Now that I'm out of the nut house and on my own
Having worn out my welcome in every home I'm to blame For all of the things that went wrong I'm just a case away From losing it all, I slip to fall I live two minutes from where I bought medicine Escape as the guy on my way to sober friends Time creeps by when out in reality Sometimes my feet start walking unconsciously I've got some time, but I've got my life to go I wish the best for us all, but I don't know |

You fall like a waterfall
Pulling down your insincerities I erode you to your bedrock And, in the fossils, the inscription reads If you think you've made history You're not as huge as you thought So pull the safety pins out your palms There's no more room on the cross So step off Your presence is a gaping hole A wound from which your contradictions bleed It's documented in my laptop And it just reaffirms statistically that If you think you've made history You're not as huge as you thought So pull the safety pins out your palms There's no more room on the cross So step off |

I've been trying my hardest, but it's not good enough
I'm back where I started, when life was tough on me There's only so much you can do when it's started Pull away, pull away, just pull away You can try to no avail to discard it Go away, go away, just go away Just go away Solve all of my problems, for everyone but me How is that a solution or recovery? I've done it again, let down my closest friend At least he used to be until I pushed you away You'll never understand and I'll never understand How I could do these things when I miss you more than anything I stopped my ill behavior and I'm up off the floor It didn't stop the pain, it cleared the way for more, much more I've done it again, let down my closest friend At least he used to be until I pushed you all away from me You'll never understand, I don't understand How I could do these things when I miss you more than anything I've done it again, let down my closest friend At least he used to be until I pushed you far away from me You'll never understand 'cause I'll never understand How I could do these things when I miss you more than anything |

Yes, hello, it's me
Sir Positivity So turn the mic gain up Let's force another one Should I grin and stay hopeful When we both look to different lights About what we perceive as high? It's not the same It won't ever be the same We're not the same And we'll never be the same Well, I've been crowned the king of Insensitivity So put your thick skin on Let's force another one Should I grin and stay hopeful When you're here with your eyes half-closed? But that tired routine gets old It's not the same It won't ever be the same It's not the same It won't ever be the same We're not the same We won't ever be the same Respect the fact That I feel it everyday It's not the same It won't ever be the same Respect the fact That I feel it everyday |
