Passing Time

I've always kept this to myself
Passing time, passing time
I know it's been so long
since I let someone inside
and the dreams I have
always rushing through my head
I've kept them inside for far too long
Ambitions are never what they seem to be
there must be something I can't see
I miss the melody, I lost all sympathy
for every person around me
and as the smoke fills my lungs and the cars pass through
beneath a plane that reminds me of the things I didn't do
I watch the lights pass by and flick my burned out cigarette
another piece of the puzzle in my ashtray head
You don't know how it feels
spending your whole life
looking for a place to call home
torn between so many things
I'm running out of perspectives
Watch me burn
to light the rooms that were my home
now I feel as if I'm pulled away
from the dullness that I used to call my life
giving up on my old habits
and the weakness that I keep inside
deep inside
I've always kept this to myself
Passing time, passing time
I know it's been so long
since I let someone inside
and the dreams I have
still rushing through my head
i kept them inside for far too long
you knew things would end this way
it's the same routine day by day
I've been lost
now I'm found
never felt like losing ground
just give me a reason to carry on
and as the smoke fills my lungs and the cars pass through
beneath a plane that reminds me of the things I didn't do
I watch the lights pass by and flick my burned out cigarette
another piece of the family I never had

Got no time to satisfy all the people who expect it from me
I've grown old, too old for this
and I don't want to go back down to the place I went to
every night that one summer
I was so happy but I knew that all of this would end
But it's so fucking hard to face the truth
and leave a part that belonged to you
and all the time I was just thinking about
where I want to be by now
The pain, the strruggle it has changed
and I don't know where this is taking me
I'm still the one you know
I've got my head in the clouds
and my feet on the ground
and I'm headstrong

Pack all your things, just go
keep running from your problems
lately I've been thinking about what you did
and who you've left behind
Just forget about everyone you know
including me but all you care about is yourself
this time I won't forget
say goodbye and make your wishes
Can't erase these thoughts
they keep running through my mind
I wish I could go back in time
it's a lie
no matter how hard I try
there's no way to fix this fucked up mess you are
All that you can do is hide in your room
always trying your best not to walk my way
and all there's left to say
is you'll get what you deserve

Haven

Bad weeds grow tall
and I want you to know
that I've lost my way
like a trail in the snow
and I don't know where to go
I've been choosing the wrong way for years
and now I'm on my own again
feels like I've lost a friend
another year in regret
just like a constant threat
And I go back to the last safe place
in my head all these thoughts that I'm trying to erase
I'm holding on
Some things will never change
I'm getting older, I rearrange
How many times can I fuck this up?
How many times can you fuck this up?
Sorry I'm not easy to understand
This time I will find my way back
Feeling my pulse beat in and out of time
Still pretending that I'm doing fine
And I keep ignoring every warning sign
The simplest words are the hardest to find
I want you to know
That this time spent alone
got the better of me
and there is a new hope
you're never on your own
no matter how hard you fall
I will be there to pick you up again
feels like I've made a friend
and all the things I do
I do them just for you
someday you'll find your way
to escape this daily hell
that you call your life
Feeling my pulse beat in and out of time
Still pretending that I'm doing fine
And I keep ignoring every warning sign
The simplest words are the hardest to find
keep your chin up high
your heavy heart will find peace in time
You'll be just fine

These nights, they made me think
of what this life means to me
I have to get up and prove that I'm
more than just another boy
who has dreams of who he wants to be
I don't even know who I am
but I know that there is
more than this
Sometimes I ask myself
if things will ever change
Some nights, I wonder
if there's a place for me
This time, I promise
that you'll be proud of me

Paths (Ready to Leave)

You know the reasons why
and I won't refuse, no I won't deny
that I'm there, I'm always there for you
but would you please, oh please
just help me through this
Thoughts remain
but I don't feel the same way
as I did back in the day
when I was ready to leave
and you begged me to stay
I don't need
your selfishness and greed
This isn't all about you
and the paths that you chose
Always willing to fight
never willing to lose
Tell me now
Do you want this?
I can't deal with your problems
This time I won't forgive
fucks sake, I was just a kid
But now that things have changed
I'm pretty sure I know
you never ever meant
a single word you said
I can't get through to you
I guess I'm just a face without a name
and you're the one to blame
that things will never be the same
Did I mean anything to you?
Please keep in mind
I once looked up to you
Do what you love
don't be afraid
let's talk about it
Just be yourself
hope for the best
and move on

Saying goodbye was such a bad idea
I thought I had it all but now I'm sitting here
and now I'm done, finding strenght in almost everthing
I still got these fucked up problems trying to fall asleep
Every time I think of you I die inside
My world turns upside down
I almost forgot what mattered most
and I'm so fucking tired
You are the door that keeps me outside
Can't find the key but I know I've tried
Bad weeds grow tall
As I roam the streets you used to walk by my side
I realized that all the words you said were a lie
and the fucked up kid I am fears to sleep at night
because I can't forget you even though I know I have tried.

Let's reflect all these days
when the only thing we had to care about
was not being caught smoking cigarettes
at our place in the woods
I was fifteen and I thought
that this world was ours
Just think of all the
stupid shit we've done
Although we hated this place back then
I sometimes like to come back
and walk these streets like we used to
I remember when we started our first band
We had a dream that would stay
I still chase it everyday
We didn't care what people said
though we were shit we loved to play
these songs that made us happy
and I still listen to them today
Let's drive this car as far as the gas tank can get us
and let's pretend we're the only people in this world
My youth is something I no longer regret
I can't sleep, I can't dream
got no place to rest my head
There's a weight on my shoulders
that I cannot bear
Things are getting better
I swear that it's true
