Back and forth we're headed down
I'm running out, we're running out
Our choices falling all around
We're gonna hit the ground
Hold on, I don't want this to end
Back and forth we're headed down
Reasons gone for holding out
We've changed too much to stay this way
I've tried, you've tried, we can't erase
the past, and now we can't escape
our buried thoughts, concealed hate
We've opened up, can't take it back
It's clawing at our heads and even
though we tried to make it out
we're still always falling down
Breaking up and breaking out
We're gonna hit the ground

Relapse

Her fingers brushed against my arm
As I walked right past I turned
and she had just a little blush, just a little playful smile
I didn't have the nerve to talk
just enough to taunt a smile back
Now she's on my mind all night
And when I see her again
I push a little more, but it's still so innocent
That's what I tell myself cause
everything about her is something new, so different
I can't help myself from holding on
I never should've let it get this far
Now she's becoming something more
And my baby girl, I wonder if she knows
It hasn't been the same, but she hasn't said a thing
I justify my dwelling thoughts, they're nothing more, it's nothing more
Relapse you're slipping through my arms into someone else's
This isn't making any sense I've never felt so helpless
It's pushing me to nobody
while you're mind's on somebody else
Force back the premonitions
My mind's lost in the distance
Won't realize fully what I'm doing til it goes way too far
A painful end is promising
I'll push those thoughts away from me
This little fantasy's just a fantasy
Where nobody sees and everyone knows
Always hiding ourselves in different clothes
Why are we so different when we're all alone?
An allusion to safety, and i'm striving to go
out of my mind and into yours
A better place, a better world
This perfect girl is nothing more
than a pack of lies shoved down my throat
Come captivate me just don't make this something else
I'll stick to harmless just as long as I can make it sell
Some perseverance before you become my veil
It won't be wrong if I can sift through the details
Cause clarity just makes it hurt
Transparency is all that is breaking apart
Cause clarity just makes it hurt
Sincerity is all that you want the start
This isn't helping let me drown
I'll never come back
Too busy sifting through your lies
I'm never gonna forget
I'm never gonna forget
So this is really it? This is how it's gonna end?
Liars never forget, liars never forget
Don't call my name anymore
This isn't yours, this isn't yours
Don't call my name anymore
This isn't yours, this isn't yours
This isn't yours

I can't keep myself distracted long enough
to make this worth
just a second of your time
That time you won't get back
Just a whisper, something great
something you can't stand to pass on, but maybe one cheap
trick will make you fall, get you hooked
No, I'm an honest guy
Left with hardly a choice, left with hardly a
chance to make this right
Your presence like
oxygen tanks, keeping me sane
I can't refrain from breaking out, calling your name
This lingering atmosphere
Shouldn't be mad at her
Sedated with fears for years
Feels like I'm outta here
A break for thoughts, I can't unwind
Her problems imprinted on the back of my mind
I can't find the time
Making up, making out, making a fight
But I tried, just a little
A little too much
You're way too familiar
Try a bit less
Come on, I'm not feeling it
Just some stress, impressed with the way you confess to me
Why can't I be
happy with the way that you are?
Not happily growing apart
But every time we try to restart
it comes back down to stubborn hearts
If this isn't working let's give up on trying
and maybe someday we'll look back on our fighting
and see that the pain and the scars were all worth it
We'll push pride aside and we'll hold onto something
that satisfies deeper than all our obsessions
Our guilty mistakes are all thrown from our heads
and everything easily falls into line
And we'll never question why back then was never the time
That time's not now
It's so hard to figure out
when our lives are falling down
It's so hard to figure out
So why keep trying now?
(I'm falling out, I'm falling down, down, down)
(Can't figure out, where I am)

I'm not worth this
Where is my faith?
I left forgiveness as a memory
I watched as that part died in me
So where did my hope go?
That light was burned out long ago
I'd bleed for rescue, I beg for rescue
I'm screaming for your help
Where are you God?
Where are you God?
I once saw you so clearly
Then I saw something I wanted more
Pressed my heels and turned
Then it started to hurt
Can't find where I came from
I don't even know if you're still there
I'm watching and waiting
There's not even a trace of you anywhere
I have turned from your love
without mercy or grace
I'll deny affiliation
though I've seen your face
So curse in damnation
or become my salvation
Broken and used
Your silence is deafening
I've become my abuse
And it's hardly the first time
Give me faith to be faithful
Give me rest or I'm breaking
I blame you and you alone
I know I'm worthy of something
I thought that I knew you
and I thought you knew me
So detached, you're so distant
You're cold and you're hidden
You turned when I called
How can this be my fault?
Death's haunting me
It's watching and calling my name
These words in my heart are all blurring to pieces
I've written and hidden them, they're hiding from me

Cyclical

I felt your fear
and it enabled me, your fear
to start wandering
Time is showing ourselves clearly, this is only temporary
I called your bluff
You never had enough to call me out this
Time is showing ourselves clearly, this is only temporary
Temporarily I was convinced
that I had to be this way
Stuck on regrets
feeling trapped inside this languid estate
You're the only one who gets me
isn't that sad irony?
The selfless gets the pain of setting all the selfish free
Now we choose to fall
I don't care what others say
we'll do it our own way
I swear that we pushed but too much is enough
Time has eroded all that we struggled to
keep strong, alive, but barely the same
They'll say that we gave up but we know that we gave our
all to this time, our all to this fight
But some things have to end
It just hurts to hurt a friend
These words aren't stable enough for their worth
I'm trying to make them much more
All these excuses are catching up to me and falling apart
