Take It 04:01
Take it And fake it All I am saying Is come back for me It's a mess You're reckless There's horror in protest Don't start a fight I've been looking over my shoulder When I turn the best part's always over And you, shake me You try your best for open eyes Wake me I sit up looking dead A dry mouth, dizzy head As last night lingers All over, not sober Wise words grow colder I'm shakin', shakin' I've been looking over my shoulder When I turn the best part's always over And you, shake me You try your best for open eyes Wake me

Walking for the first time down on midnight street Looking for a bar, looking for a place to drink Passing by a dance club, they try to sell me Ecstasy I'll be fine if I keep my faith with make-believe Living indecisive comparing the next Happy with the outcome, out of context Life could be like living, life could be like death Living with a gamble, shaking on a bet Looking for some small talk, don't know what it means to me Putting down a shot, never paying for what's free Watching other people, sometimes I don't care what I see When I am bored sometimes the only choice is to leave Living indecisive comparing the next Happy with the outcome, out of context Life could be like living, life could be like death Living with a gamble, shaking on a bet

At least I know I can breathe for a second At least I know Time will slow down for me 'Cause the finer things come and they go I can take it or leave At least I know The things that really matter are with you At least I know You'll be making it out just fine 'Cause your focus is number one to keep your things in line And I, and I can see it now And I, and I can hear it now And I, and I can feel it now At least I know I can breathe for a second At least I know Time will slow down for me 'Cause the finer things come and they go I can take it or leave

Last Place 03:34
I feel like the last person left in the room My time for waiting is done The unfamiliar is coming soon I can't be the only one Waking up to a brand new sun Feel the seasons as they roll along I would tell you if I could But the last time I was here was so long ago I don't remember a single thing from before It's hard for me to say anymore Is this a race and you're in the front row Or am I just being dumb? If I came in last would you call me slow? Distractions greater than one Fast asleep to an aging sun In my dreams I'm always on the run I would tell you if I could But I never figure out where I'm gonna go Even if I try to find my way I'll never know It's hard for me to say anymore

Play It Cool 03:43
When I try to think of something else Cycle of thoughts just come around on itself Too much aware of the things that I do Look far into the distance like I'm playing it cool Then I realize I can take this off my back There's no certain way I should or shouldn't act If I fall it's only written in the sand In the end it's what we had Sometimes I wonder how long will it take It feels so empty now the longer I wait After all of the things I've been through I'm still telling myself to play it cool Then I realize I can take this off my back There's no certain way I should or shouldn't act If I fall it's only written in the sand In the end it's what we had

90 Days 04:12
90 days Until I finally know what it feels like on my own Take away the love of things that I've set in stone But right now It always feels like night time When I'm tired of thinking I'm always the last one left behind I let the moment sink in And watch it past Try to make it last Counting all the seconds like a pocket full of change Is it okay to feel the same? Many ways To spend each golden hour And I'll try not to count But I can't help keeping track of everyday Cross it out It always feels like night time When I'm tired of thinking I'm always the last one left behind I let the moment sink in And watch it past Try to make it last Counting all the seconds like a pocket full of change Is it okay to feel the same?
