Mountains

Even though I've overcome so much in my life
It feels like I'm in exactly the same place
I've always been
All these dark thoughts
They're surrounding me
Barricading like a mountain
My head is crowded,
I am drowning
In these dark thoughts
They're surrounding me
Barricading like a mountain
I feel shrouded,
I wouldn't doubt it
When I usher them away
It's never moving mountains
It feels like I've got frostbite
I can't stomach it
Being eaten away like a tripe
Yeah I know you thought it
'cause I talk shit
And now you think I'm crying wolf
But the moons aglow
And guess what I'm turning into?
A fucking sheep, I'm ashamed to be me
Cry in my sleep, too afraid to break free
What do I gotta do to get some peace?
'cause I've only got one piece to the puzzle
Nobody gives a fuck about my rebuttal
I'm like an exile being sent into space on shuttle
They trying silence me but I don't fit their muzzle
You can't contain me,
Release the genie from the bottle
All these dark thoughts
They're surrounding me
Barricading like a mountain
My head is crowded,
I am drowning
In these dark thoughts
They're surrounding me
Barricading like a mountain
I feel shrouded,
I wouldn't doubt it
When I usher them away
It's never moving mountains
Even when I'm feeling like I'm gonna succeed
The negative thoughts niggle away
Knocking me down like a damn stampede
I'm pro-life but I should'a been aborted
I fantasise about my demise
'cause I despise my fucking life
Yeah I know my opinion's distorted
I know it's a mental disorder
But still,
The feeling is so palpable it could kill
I dunno if it will, but fuck it
I'm gonna make it to the top of the hill
I will not stop until I reach the summit
And when I look down at the view
I tell myself,
Anything's attainable if you really want it
All these dark thoughts
They're surrounding me
Barricading like a mountain
My head is crowded,
I am drowning
In these dark thoughts
They're surrounding me
Barricading like a mountain
I feel shrouded,
I wouldn't doubt it
When I usher them away
It's never moving mountains
I'm standing on this promontory
Will anybody recognise me
When I'm disfigured at the bottom of sea?
This is a perfect time to end my life
But why can't I decide?
There's always a mountain to climb
But that's the point
We chase the high
So please try

Reckless Teens
03:08

I remember when we first met
You looked so perfect
My heart was yearning
For all of your love
The heavens opened up
You'd fallen from above
Right into my arms
We will always be together
And you know we'll last forever
Hold my hand
And we'll fight through the weather
Let's run away and never say never
We will always be together
And you know we'll last forever
Now we're older
Things have changed
Doesn't mean we can't stay the same
Back when we were reckless teens
Getting lost in our dreams
Doing what we wanted for free
How else were we mean't to be?
Here we go again fighting every night
What aren't we getting right?
Just want you by my side
For the rest of my life
We can make this work
It doesn't have to hurt
We've been through the worst
We will always be together
And you know we'll last forever
Hold my hand
And we'll fight through the weather
Let's run away and never say never
We will always be together
And you know we'll last forever
Now we're older
Things have changed
Doesn't mean we can't stay the same
Back when we were reckless teens
Getting lost in our dreams
Doing what we wanted for free
How else were we mean't to be?
Time goes by so quickly
It's a mystery
How the heck we have such history
'cause now we're over
Swerved and hit the hard shoulder
Thought we were stronger than that
Ready to grow and to adapt
When the going gets tough
Packed your bags
And ran away so off-the-cuff
After all my love
Back when we were reckless teens
Getting lost in our dreams
Doing what we wanted for free
How else were we mean't to be?

Hell so Deep
03:10
|
|||
When I look into your eyes
I see the sadness deep inside
Most people they couldn't tell – no
Lost in the crowd, people walk on by
A world so cruel doesn't care you cry
For what it's worth
I will always be by your side
Why oh why are you so sad?
It breaks my heart and makes me mad
The slope you're climbing is so steep
And now you're falling into a hell so deep
You must go on, learn to be strong
Against the world who've done you wrong
But will you ever tell me? No
I look for you within the crowd
You always make me so damn proud
I wanna be right here with you somehow
Why oh why are you so sad?
It breaks my heart and makes me mad
The slope you're climbing is so steep
And now you're falling into a hell so deep
The blame I feel is oh so real
How do I deal with the scars that won't heal?
How do I mend a broken heart
When all the pieces are falling apart?
Like the last leaf falling from a tree in Autumn
I don't wanna be the cause of a post-mortem
But now I see it's not you it's me
I'm the one that's bringing you down
And I'm the one in hell so deep
It's time for me to let you be free
And I'mma take one final leap
Why oh why am I so sad?
I break your heart and I make you mad
The slope I'm climbing is so steep
And now I'm falling into a hell so deep

Board Games

All day long
Been listening to your shit
I’m sick of it
Fuck what you think hunny
Why do you think
That I should listen to you?
Step in my shoes
Then you will see hunny
(Then you will see hunny,
Come on and see hunny)
I will stay true to who I am
I won’t change
Don’t need to prove myself to you
You’re not all that
I will stay true to who I am
I won’t change
Won’t be a piece in your board game
No checkmate
You all talk the same
I’m bored of your board games
I'm so done
One thing I wanna get clear
Is if you ain't here
That's up to you hunny
Gone like a blink
Of an eye, you can try
You will never kill my vibe
There's no changing me hunny
(So now you see hunny,
What will it be hunny?)
I will stay true to who I am
I won’t change
Don’t need to prove myself to you
You’re not all that
I will stay true to who I am
I won’t change
Won’t be a piece in your board game
No checkmate
I don't need the stress in my life
Can't believe the mess you supplied
I'm happy the way I'm living
You're all take, you're never giving
And this is my take – good riddance
You are nothing to me anymore
You're a hinderance
Dive into the unknown
I'm gonna thrive
Living a life that's worthwhile
I will stay true to who I am
I won’t change
Don’t need to prove myself to you
You’re not all that
I will stay true to who I am
I won’t change
Won’t be a piece in your board game
No checkmate
You all talk the same
I’m bored of your board games

Goodbye Angel
03:28
|
|||
I am walking away
Even though it's far too late
No words will heal the pain
Our world ends today
Goodbye angel
Please just let me go
Don't want to love you
You mean so much to me
But you refuse to see
This twisted love is wrong
Was never meant to be
Don't want to stay
Please world, end today
Goodbye angel
My life has changed
Don't know who I became
I never meant to be
My own worst enemy
But did you even care
That I was in despair?
Still feel the same
The world's not to blame
Goodbye angel
I never was the one you needed
I could never've fixed the pieces
You drained me of my feelings
The scars too deep for healing
I should never've been your angel
Incapable; I couldn't hate you
I don't think I deserve to get by
Never really wanted to say goodbye

Every day is quickening
The plot is thickening
People won't stop bickering
What is the point in that?
I look up at the sky
And wonder why
The world is filled with war
The world is filled with crime
It makes you think
Have these people lost their minds?
Lost them in time
Because it is the 21st century
And not the Middle Ages
So I think it is about time
For some changes
Let's rearrange this
Put down your guns
And all your materials of war
And see the outcome
See what you were doing wrong
Quit praying to a false god
And find a new one
With better morals
Then see how good we all get along
We can all live in tranquility
Because if we're supposed
To be the dominant species
Then by God we have the ability
To make a change,
To make a difference
The countries they divide us
But we all live on the same planet
And that is our home
So why take it for granted?
I put this message in a bottle
And throw it out to sea
I look up at the sky
And wonder why
World peace
Will only ever be a dream
We should not be categorised
By our colour or our nationality
Whatever happened
To the human rights policy
That we are all so blind to see
Behind every decision
Ever made is a human being
We all make mistakes
So lets mistaken this social hierarchy
I'm not talking anarchy
I'm reporting tyranny
People of a higher status
Taking advantage of the lesser few
One message in a bottle will just not do
But a few hundred thousand might suffice
And we could maybe make a change
Lets quit being so stubborn
And get ourselves heard
Unite as one
And turn these dreams into words
We call a democracy
And preach "Pangaea."
I put this message in a bottle
And throw it out to sea
I look up at the sky
And wonder why
World peace
Will only ever be a dream
World peace
Could be more than just a dream
