Missing Pages

Verse:
These nights I’ve been looking for some insight
From these long drives, ‘cross state lines
In hopes I’ll find somewhere that I belong
And tonight, it won’t be long
Just like the 100,000 other nights
And other times before
I’ll scream fuck it all, I’ll stop myself
I’ll slam the breaks, I’ll hear the squeal
All before I pull the wheel, another night, I am here still
Chorus:
On every one of these late night drives
I scream and cry, I wonder why
I’m alive, and what I’m doing with my life
And if life’s a book, I feel that I’m
Torn out pages, thrown aside
Missing pages in the book of life,
Just missing pages in the book of life
Verse:
These nights I’ve been forgoing a seatbelt around me
In hopes I, get my car, wrapped around a tree
Scattered, out on the concrete
I’ll be poured out on these empty streets
Won’t be nothing left to bleed, won’t be nothing left of me
Bridge:
I’m sick of feeling like I’m torn out missing pages
Sick of all these nights of playing suffocation
Something’s gotta change, I’m sick of playing games
And I just wish that you could see my point of view

Verse:
I’ve come to terms that I hate everyone involved in my life one way or another
Constantly questioning everything that ever crossed my mind
It’s about that
Prechorus:
Time again where I start fucking screaming, staring at my ceiling
Wondering where everyone has gone again
Chorus:
It’s happening, I fucked it up this time
Think I’m losing my mind as well as everyone I know
You left a note on the door, and a knife in my chest
But now that you’re gone, there ain’t nobody left
God damn
Verse:
Not quite sure what to say when you feel like everybody’s just a bother
Another week, only me, that I see, nobody in my sight, about that
Prechorus:
Time again where I start fucking screaming, tearing down my ceiling
Wonder if anyone is coming back again

Fault

We always want the things that we don’t have
Always on the prowl for greener grass
But I’ll swallow my pride, I’m transparent, can’t hide
What’s written on my face, as well as my mind
All these things I’ve done, I don’t know why
Well aware of mistakes that I’ve made
And the outcomes of my actions, I’m afraid
Will follow me beyond the grave
Through it all and everything
By the worst of ways, I’m coming clean
We always want the things that we don’t have
Always on the prowl for greener grass
But I’ll swallow my pride, I’m transparent, can’t hide
What’s written on my face, as well as my mind
All these things I’ve done, I don’t know why

Dropout

Verse:
Since I was 15, I’ve been scared shitless to age
And all these years later, not much here has changed
I’m still just that same boy, I’m still just as scared
I was never quite ready, I’m still unprepared
Chorus:
Just gotta remember, I’m my own worst enemy
Been like this forever, it’s myself that’s against me
And that only little help, I’ve given to myself
Are these words I’ve carved out here
Drop out while you’re still on top kid
Verse:
A whole quarter, it seems, of my life has gone by
Been feeling quite empty, and losing my light
Looking for answers, where questions are due
It’s all right, it’s all fine, just missing pages in the book of life
Bridge:
I’ll pick myself up off the ground, I’ll keep my head up, won’t look down
I’ll keep my eyes straight, I’ll keep my eyes set dead ahead
You’ll hear my voice clear, crisp and loud, it’s myself I’ve finally found
I’ll keep my eyes straight, I’ll keep my eyes set dead ahead
Verse:
My greatest motivation, is just my greatest fear
The thought of living with regret, too scared to face my fears
So I’ll never let myself down, never forget who I am
Remember how my voice sounds, against myself, once more I’ll fail

INTRO D A# F C - D A# A A
VERSE D A# C Am
Monotony has gotten quite the hold on me
And every day just feels the same like nothing's ever gonna change
Empty habits and old routines are the only things I ever see
Ironically I'm afraid you see of repeating history
CHORUS D A# F C - A
So save me from myself
- Find me a reason to go on
I can't do it alone so
Save me from myself
I cannot find one reason to go on
And I can't do it alone no
VERSE
I've had too much and I've had it rough and frankly dear I've had enough
Of this same old story's daunting repetition
- Barely holding on as I beg and plea
Hoping that you'll break me free from chains of monotony
CHORUS
OUTRO
I can't do it alone no more

Young and Angry

Verse:
Growing up, starting fires
Fist fights with the race of time
In a war that I never knew I combatted
And that is, or that was
Everything that I thought I’d ever be
Back in those days, done with those ways
Back when I was
Chorus:
Young and angry, I’ll never be
Young and angry, no never again
Young and angry, no I’ll never be
Young and angry, no never again
Verse:
Used to sing these molotov dreams
We wanted to set the world on fire
Roamed these streets, thought you could be
Another revolutionary
Bridge:
Looking back on our yesterdays
We didn’t know a god damn thing
We’ve finally died down
Looking back on those younger nights
The fires in our eyes have
Finally died down

VERSE 1
They tell me that your life is what you make of it
As I've always done, I've made a mess of this
Whole ordeal again, over again
Lying wide awake all night and morning
Lost all hope that you'll make my phone ring
Like old times, again, over again
CHORUS
Every other night, I'm playing back old voicemails
Time, it heals all wounds but only time itself tells
If I decide, to leave you behind
Stitch up every wound in my heart, my soul and mind
VERSE 2
I'm reading your old letters over open flames
I never have the strength to let them burn away
Like I've done to you this time again
I promised to myself that I'd someday change
Someday always turns into I'd rather wait
So I have failed, again, over again
BRIDGE (QUIET)
VOICE 1
There's nothing that I wouldn't do to turn back time
I'm screaming every night, I'm so far from fine
Fixated, I am caught on when you were mine
Elated, I will never be, this broken mind
VOICE 2 (BUILD)
I've told you time and time again to get it together
This is my last call to you, goodbye forever
We've tried this far too many times, this weary endeavour
I know you far too well by now, change you, I'll never
And so, I will go
KEY CHANGE HALF STEP UP
CHORUS
VOICE2
Every other night, you're playing back old voicemails
Time, it heals all wounds but only time itself tells
If you decide, to leave me behind
Stitch up every wound in your heart, your soul and mind
Your soul and mind
CHORUS
VOICE 1+2

Verse:
Feel free to consider this
The very last time that you'll ever hear from me
Honestly
These past few months have turned around the better
With eyes set straight, momentum forever
And I've been doing just fine
Prechorus:
But every now and then you still cross my mind
With these same ideas, time to time
I'm lying if I'm denying that
I still think of how
Chorus:
You've had your own flames, I've had mine
But still I ponder time to time
If there's still embers or if only ash remain
Now it's far too late to apologize
I've waited long enough, pain subsided
Without you, I've been doing just fine
