The Worst

You'll be sitting on the sidelines waiting,
wishing it was you who was making it.
I've always known you were so fond of jealousy.
And I'm not the only one who's noticed,
believe me, it has gone around.
I'm tired of your bullshit logic,
the way you preach it, and wear it link a
crown.
It always brings you down.
This is your epiphany.
If you never got it yourself,
well here it is, courtesy of me.
By now you should have heard
you're not why this world spins and
you're not exactly who you thought you were.
Let's put exceptions aside and get right to the point.
You never wanted to be in the picture.
You're not my friend, and you were never the one to trust.
Stop pretending like youre some sort of savior.
You'd sell me out in a second if it meant
that you could let this go.
I'm sorry you're the one who's waiting,
but I just had to go.
AND YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW.
This is your epiphany.
If you never got it yourself,
well here it is, courtesy of me.
By now you should have heard
you're not why this world spins and
you're not exactly who you thought you were.
This is your epiphany.

well here it is, courtesy of me.

Hold Me Down

It's been nine months now and I'm calling out to
anyone to help me cope.
I've never told anyone that I got this low.
I'm crashing from a peak of hope.
She lead me up here to let me go when
I swore to god that I had it all.
I loved and lost and was left with nothing more, than
a "Fuck you and get well" card, where she says
she says she's sorry.
But some days, I think they're going to find me
washed up dead or drowning,
but it's not the fear of death that scares me.
I'm just so scared of who I am.
And it's killing me to see us get like this again.
I swear I hate this shit, what have I gotten in.
I can't help thinking that I try way too hard to
control the fact I'm in over my head.
I need to grow up, she said, lets just change the subject again
but I'm so sick of changing.
You see, it gets worse from here.
But some days, I think they're going to find me
washed up dead or drowning,
but it's not the fear of death that scares me.
I'm just so scared of who I am.
And it's killing me to see us get like this again.
She said I'm perfect, just not perfect for her.
It may be worth it, just not worth it for you.
This is the process of me, helping myself back up.
I can't let this hold me down.

Aspirations (Acoustic)

Well it's dark, dark where it used to be light
and it's more than this daylight savings time.
I don't mind the four-o-clock moon but it feels like
I'll never be done here.
And I'm tired of being tired.
And I'm sick of being sick.
I'm too high strung for being so young
I'll cut back and let it loose,
Rid the fear of being outdone.
I've only got this life to live so;
I won't fuck up again.
What the hell is normal?
I don't know where I am.
For all I know I'm dying but
I have unfinished plans.
I want to go to college.
I want to start a band.
17 years, I still have empty hands.
I'm too high strung for being so young
I'll cut back and let it loose,
Rid the fear of being outdone.
I've only got this life to live so;
I won't fuck up again.
So take my word, I'll turn this around.
I've learned there's nothing more than the here and now.
Dont mistake me, don't mistake me, for someone I'm not.
I'm too high strung for being so young
I'll cut back and let it loose,
Rid the fear of being outdone.
I've only got this life to live so;
I won't fuck up again.
Well, it's dark, dark where it use to be light.
