Fear 03:54
Lyrics: You know sometimes I feel pretty average Like I'm just abiding in my old habits Staying in these dreams of my old friends Staying young trying to understand That life can twist and turn into rotten things And make one lose the sense of time Is it strange that at night when the light flickers Everything seems so much brighter The smiles The slipping The untrained blind is wishing for something it's never seen I walk through the valley of shadow and death but I fear my evil And I try and count my steps as I walk to the steeple And I ask why I regress when I'm around other people Even though I stay in my head I lose all control Of my feelings at night Everything will change with time Even with a spotless mind Everything will change with time

Sarah Newman 04:43
Lyrics: Sarah marks her desk with a pen With a heart she writes an S and an N She says to herself stop crying so much As she hides in the bathroom stall with her lunch She is on her bike when the school bell rings No one notices as she leaves early As she slips into a neighbor's pool She dips for fun as she skips school The sun bakes right down on her face As she claims the backyard as her space But her mom The beautiful old blonde Who used to be the queen of the high school prom Mary arrives at home And she asks her what she is doing alone Mary is getting tired of this She is trying hard not to reminisce Of those times back when Sarah was three When everything seemed so easy Cause ever since Sarah was six Her teachers have been asking How come Sarah doesn't smile that much And she doesn't have a lot of friends at lunch Now the medication is too much to pay As Mary sees her daughter slip away Then one night While Mary sleeps Sarah stayed up And she goes to the bathroom and sees A stranger staring back Whom she hates So she gets a razor blade And She decides She's had enough And Sarah is so damn tired Of wearing long sleeves cause She's afraid That if she wears a tee Well then everyone will see The coward for whom she Thinks she is Cause she feels like she is Permanently branded On her skin with the evidence Of all those lonely nights when she gave in When the voice in the back of her head Took the win And she's afraid that they'll notice that she's a sin But she's just a kid Now Sarah sleeps somewhere between grace and infinity Mary breaks the bread and makes a heart with an S and an N

Lyrics: Bite my neck So I will remember it Just sink those teeth in Everything Fine Take my lungs Fill them with blood From losing my tongue Feel my death In every step The taste of it On my breath From the life That I eat Everything Fine

Fade 05:05
Lyrics: I feel stuck in the same place where I'm searching for Some way to crawl back towards Laughing faces and all my friends Sitting around and doing nothing Can't help but get this pull in my chest to Constantly lie and reminisce of Long nights singing songs of Dumb fights and always being wrong I enjoy the dark because I can't see how broken I am And the way that life breaks suddenly without plan Waking up trying to do better now Try my best to keep my feet on the ground I've lost hope You were my hope Can we turn back time So I can see those eyes That always wanna live Oh god we were just kids The strictness of pavement keeps me afloat As my feet seem to move without being told Moving in a line to allow me to breathe Moving so that I don't permanently fall asleep The strictness of pavement keeps me afloat Oh God, I'm missing home Cause God I'm missing home Oh God, I think I'm turning Grey And I'm worried That I'm presently Starting to fade (Get up fool you gotta get up this time Don't let yourself sink into the pavement Your life is still worth saving) Oh God, I'm not feeling great No matter how much I try to be And how much I push me I think I'm starting to fade I think I'm starting to fade We were just kids

Sunday Drive 01:34
Lyrics: It's like a Sunday morning drive And it's about ten and you're heading to church But lord knows that I'm tired I'm being choked by this starched shirt Cause you stayed up late watching TV again The preacher is going on about something But you're too focused on what's for lunch Moving so that I don't permanently fall asleep God, it's just like any other day Inside of this place God, it's just like any other day Inside of this

So Fall 02:21
Lyrics: And you fall You try your best to get up But fall Cause that just means you know where the bottoms at So fall So you know how far you'll have to climb back So fall They say When you fall You won't be able to get up again Well I'm here to say That's not quite true At least not to me Cause when I fall I'm still alive Just bleeding internally
