As I try to gather myself it feels like some things never change
People and places may be different, but the lines still stay the same
As I try to gather myself, I can't help feel something strange
I can see you in the distance but I can't place your name.
Is it all in my head?
Am I making my bed?
I'm crawling out my grave
Is it all in my head?
I'm waking up
To all that you said
It's buried now
As I try to gather myself it feels like some things never change
I'm still running through the motions, but I can't keep the pace
As I try to gather myself, I can't help feel something strange
Sights and sounds still so familiar
It's something I can't shake
Is it all in my head?
Am I better off dead?
It's more than I can take
Is it all in my head?
I'm waking up
To all that you said
It's buried now
Such strong convictions
We'll hold these true I swear I swear

Tell me why I still see you in my sleep
Tell me why it's been years but you still haunt my mind
Is it comforting to know that every song I ever wrote
You helped play a part along the way

All I wanted was to be loved
To be cherished and accepted for who I really was
I guess my all's never enough
The feeling leaves every time that you walked out through that door
They say it's better to forgive
To forget and let go
So if i'm cutting all my ties
I only thought that you should know
You are a thorn in my side
You are an ache in my chest
I'm letting go of my pride
I'm moving on for the best
You are a sore on my cheek
You are a scab on my knee
You are the dirt to me

Fade to Gray

Was it my own fear that made me push you away
What made it hard to open up?
What made it so hard to trust?
I shut you out
I couldn't let you in
You only came to me with golden intentions
And as the days turned to nights
I watched my nights to to days
Don't let myself feel a thing
Just let me numb and decay
I wasn't always this way (I wasn't always this way)
I wasn't always this way (I wasn't always this way)
I couldn't lie to you
I couldn't lie to me
I couldn't stay
I couldn't stay
As the dust settles let it all fade to gray
Would you forgive me?
The mistakes that I made?
I am not the man you wanted me to be
I'll wash the blood from my hands
Cleanse myself of the guilt
I'll lay waste to the land
Watch it wither and wilt
Block out everything
Shut out everyone
Replace the memories with artificial ones
Block out everything
Shut out everyone
Replace the memories
Replace the memories
Fade To Gray

Walls

Some days seem longer than others
whether it's due to the position of the sun
Or maybe it's simply the fact that you're gone
And now I count down the hours until I can sleep
Regardless of whatever it is, it's slowly killing me
Some days more often than not I find myself focusing on the what if's, the could have beens, situations I've made in my mind.
Like a movie reel
The same scenes on a constant replay
This is not what I wanted
This is not what I planned
Sometimes life just happens
And you're left with nothing at all
Tell me was it worth the pain you caused?
Tonight i'm climbing up these walls
I'm climbing up these walls you're putting up
I'm tearing down these thoughts i've fought
I'm climbing up these walls you're putting up
I'm not sure exactly what it is that makes me so afraid to change
To let go of the damage you placed
And allow myself to grow
I know that it won't be easy
But it is not an impossible task
One day i'm sure I'll get there
It's just hard to say when that day will be
You left me broken
I swear i'll make it on my own
You left me hopeless
Now all that I have is hope
