Yeah, I'll admit
that life hasn't
gone as planned so far.
I've made mistakes,
I haven't caught some breaks,
but I'll keep pushing forward.
It's gonna take some time,
but I know I'll be alright.
You can try and write me off,
but I won't be pushed aside.
At the end of it all,
no matter how many times I fall,
I'll just roll with the hits
and find a way through all of this.
I know I'm not
the shining example
that you wanted from me,
but I'm trying my best
to put my troubles to rest
and find some stability.
It's gonna take some time,
but I know I'll be alright.
You can try and write me off,
but I won't be pushed aside.
At the end of it all,
no matter how many times I fall,
I'll just roll with the hits
and find a way through all of this.
One day we'll look back
and simply just laugh
at how things were.
It's gonna take some time,
but I know I'll be alright.
You can try and write me off,
but I won't be pushed aside.
At the end of it all,
no matter how many times I fall,
I'll just roll with the hits
and find a way through all of this.

Pass The Blame

You’re spineless
It shows
when you have to react to a challenge
that's thrown your way.
You just look for the easy way out
and leave others
to carry the burden,
while cleaning up
all of messes that you’ve made.
Don’t think that it ever
went unnoticed.
Don’t just think that
I’ll just let it be.
You define what it means to be
undeserving.
You won’t take any more
time from me.
I see straight through
the ambition that you lack,
the shadow figure that you try to cast
over everyone, and everything.
I won’t let you get away with this
I’m sick of putting up with your shit.
It’s time for you to face your consequence.
I know that
you’ll try
to paint yourself as the victim
just like you do every damn time
that you’re called out.
And come up with
another sorry excuse
that you will try to use.
To clear your name.
I see straight through
the ambition that you lack,
the shadow figure that you try to cast
over everyone, and everything.
I won’t let you get away with this
I’m sick of putting up with your shit.
It’s time for you to face your consequence.
You’re no wolf in sheep’s clothing
just another sheep in the herd.
Just admit to your shame,
from the way you behave,
and quit trying to pass the blame.

Sunshine State

I don't know how,
I don't know when,
but you wound up inside my head again
as much as I would hate to admit.
Even though
it's been so long
since that summer when you left me
torn apart.
And as the rain keeps pouring down
Over this same, old Midwest town.
I know you'll never think of me the same
as long as you're in the Sunshine State.
I know it's better off this way,
but I still find myself sitting here hoping.
To this day
seeing your face
still fills me up in ways that I
can't explain.
Just wish that I
still had a chance
to let you know how you still manage
to drive me insane.
I know you'll never think of me the same
as long as you're in the Sunshine State.
I know it's better off this way,
but I still find myself sitting here hoping.
Chances came, and I let them fade.
And it led to watching you walk away.
I'm never one to let things build up.
This time around I just can't blame bad luck.
I know you'll never think of me the same
as long as you're in the Sunshine State.
I wish it didn't have to be this way,
but I will always have myself to blame.

In Complacency

You keep telling me
those same old cliches
of how I'm doing everything right,
but there's just something off,
you're just not ready,
now is not the right timing.
But I'm not gonna sit in complacency
I've only got one life to life, I'm not gonna waste it on waiting.
Here's the bottom line: I'm asking one last time to get out of my mind
because I'm moving forward, and getting on with my life.
I'm so sick and tired
of having this same conversation.
Every time I ask for your
explanation.
But I'm not gonna sit in complacency
I've only got one life to life, I'm not gonna waste it on waiting.
Here's the bottom line: I'm asking one last time to get out of my mind
because I'm moving forward, and getting on with my life.
You just can't seem to make up your mind.
You're constantly changing from side to side,
so I'm leaving you behind.
I've given you so many chances to make things right,
but you just keep changing from side to side,
so I'm leaving you behind.

Empty Handed

I've wasted too much time sulking over what you did to this heart of mine,
but I can't keep living my life this way.
Picked myself up too many times when I lost myself inside my mind,
I'll never be the one you hoped to find.
I won't let you drag me down to where I used to be.
Going back to living my own life for me.
Found a reason to get back on my feet again.
It all comes down to making sure you end up empty handed.
So save your breath.
Look around and see all the things you've taken from me,
and realize I won't show you any sympathy.
I've come to terms with what you are to me: another distant memory
that I don't think of fondly,
I won't let you drag me down to where I used to be.
Going back to living my own life for me.
Found a reason to get back on my feet again.
It all comes down to making sure you end up empty handed.
I've pushed myself too far ahead
to turn around for weight that's dead.
You had your chance to mend all your mistakes,
so I think it's best we both just walk away.
I've pushed myself too far ahead (I pried)
to turn around for weight that's dead. (through your lies)
You had your chance to mend all your mistakes, (so I'll just)
so I think it's best we both just walk away. (say goodbye)
