Something Left To Prove

Your battle ships are sinking
Cause you can’t carry your own weight
OWN WEIGHT
And the moment I try to tell you
You look for the great escape
And you’ll forget about it
Feel regret, there’s no doubt about it
And you’ll try to run around it
But suffocate from your surroundings
Coast to coast we’ve been waiting for this
And we’re ready to make our mark
X MARKS THE SPOT
and if you can’t understand it
well you know it’s coming from the heart
cause I’ve been waiting a long time to tell you everythings not right
you’ve been running through my head and I’m better off dead
staring at your bigger lights
and I’ve sold all my possessions
just to try and make it through the night
but it’s a waste, it demonstrates
I’m back pedaling from where I came
But oh no, well there you go
Running your mouth but we already know
And try to justify all the lies that you despise
Cause your new disguise is fading, and we’ll keep on waiting for something new.
Coast to coast we’ve been waiting for this
And we’re ready to make our mark
X MARKS THE SPOT
and if you can’t understand it
well you know it’s coming from the heart
FROM THE HEART

Falling Short

You know you were destined for failure
You knew it all along
And every moment that your heart stops beating
You get for falling short
And that feeling’s oh so familiar
Taste the pride that’s going down your throat
And now I’ve met every rule and consequence
It’s three AM I’m up again
Trying to erase you from my mind
But you’re just so important
Youv’e got no shame and show it
I’ve got to get myself together before you drop the time
And you’ve always known it, you were just wasting my time,
It’s become so clear to me, that I’m not who I used to be
We’re headed straight for a melt down
And you’re the mark I’ve got to take down
And we were destined for failure
Watch your back cause she’ll trail ya.
She can smell the heart on your sleeve, cause she’s a disease
And oh it’s no fun, she’ll have you circled when it’s all done.
I knew it right away, when red flags went up I should have stayed away
But I like what I cant have. Can you blame me, am I crazy?
So now I’m wishing on shooting stars and laying in clover yards
Am I losing my sanity, or did she take that away from me?
I got one chance to get it right, cause I don’t wanna be up all night
We’re headed straight for a melt down
And you’re the mark I’ve got to take down
And we were destined for failure
Watch your back cause she’ll trail ya.
She can smell the heart on your sleeve, cause she’s a disease
And oh it’s no fun, she’ll have you circled when it’s all done.
And every moment that your heart stops beating
You get for falling short
And that feeling’s oh so familiar
Taste the pride that’s going down your throat

Mediocre At Best

I make the worst impressions that reflect upon myself
I’m a lost cause for a reason that I hoped in better health
And you’ve been trying to cut me down just to get a step ahead
But you’re walking on backwards, getting closer to the edge
And it’s the more that you doubt me, the less that I fear.
Put me in water and watch me grow
I’m not a banker but I’ve got my weight in gold
So build me right up so I can take myself back down
I’m holding my confessions that you were the best thing around.
And you’ll snowball the arguments to make yourself seem great
But your loyalty’s distasteful waiting for the lies to fall in place
You know that I will hold my ground, and dig my roots in deep like trees
This story has no happy ending, I guess it’s your tragedy
Put me in water and watch me grow
I’m not a banker but I’ve got my weight in gold
So build me right up so I can take myself back down
I’m holding my confessions that you were the best thing around.
And it’s just so fitting to see you pushing through
The obstacles a test with the answers you can’t undo
The words will travel fast, whispered from ear to ear
You’re throwing rocks at glass, but it’s bullet proof my dear
Your feet in the air, and your head on the ground
You ain’t going no where cause you’re upside down
When you sit in the throne feel the weight of the crown
And you know that you’ll never be found unless you make yourself come around
When you’re all alone and you wish you had me now
Well you should have known, instead of asking how you threw it all away
Just keep wishing for that lucky day
And you’re built as strong as paper that’s blowing in the wind
Thrown out in the rain trying to get a chance back in
You’ve been getting on my nerves and you’re starting to be a pain
I guess that I’ll cut the tension cause you’ve only got yourself to blame

You cross the I’s I’ll dot the T’s
Just sit back watch you stare at me
We ain’t got anywhere else to be
And I know that it’s all wrong
Cause you’ve got me singing this old song
Our fate: we can’t belong.
She’s one of a kind
I’m inclined to fall behind
She keeps me waiting
And anticipating
She never falls in line
Can’t make up her mind
So frustrating, She’s amazing
She’s like saving the best for the last one
On a long walk all alone
And I’m calling all my chances
So can you PLEASE PICK UP THE PHONE
And I wanna write you a love song
But I could never find the words to say to you
Hey girl, you’ll be alright tonight
You know I’ll save you
No way girl, You can’t run from this fight
Miss unpredictable.
I’ve got this feeling in my knees
Your heart FIGHTS making my heart bleed
But you know we’re unstoppable
She’s one of a kind
I’m inclined to fall behind
She keeps me waiting
And anticipating
She never falls in line
Can’t make up her mind
So frustrating, She’s amazing
I’m placing my bets on a long shot
Trying to find my way back home
And I’m searching for the answers
But the questions are unknown
and I’m over writing a love song
so I’ll come right out and say these words to you
Hey girl, you’ll be alright tonight
You know I’ll save you
No way girl, You can’t run from this fight
Miss unpredictable.
She’s all that I’ve got, she’s all that I need
Don’t take yourself away from me
Miss unpredictable
