Freaking Out 03:50
Freaking Out Some say I'm cold on the outside And it burns so bright, like a badge and I wear it With pride on the inside And I canā€™t escape, got me feeling myself forever and a day Some say I'm freaking Some say I'm freaking out Some say I'm freaking Some say I'm freaking out And now youā€™re setting the tone Iā€™m feeling something stay Like Iā€™m wide awake Couldnā€™t keep away Couldnā€™t keep away You suffocate me into safety, I donā€™t hesitate I fall asleep, itā€™s like you lull me into a state of mind And if I died Iā€™d resurrect and crawl into your bed And if smile do it again, the cycle never ends And now youā€™re setting the tone Iā€™m feeling something stay Like Iā€™m wide awake Couldnā€™t keep away Couldnā€™t keep away And every time you go I feel like I decay Into yesterday Couldnā€™t keep away Couldnā€™t keep away Some say I'm freaking Some say I'm freaking out Some say I'm freaking Some say I'm freaking out Some say I'm cold on the outside And it burns so bright, like a badge and I wear it With pride on the inside And I canā€™t escape, got me feeling myself forever and a day And now youā€™re setting the tone Iā€™m feeling something stay Like Iā€™m wide awake Couldnā€™t keep away Couldnā€™t keep away And every time you go I feel like I decay Into yesterday Couldnā€™t keep away Couldnā€™t keep away

Hindsight 03:39
Hide away from the cold Wear me out but call me home Pulling me through the cracks My head in your hands I will follow you I was just stuck under your thumb Chorus And in the clarity it stings a lot like hindsight Play it all in vain and wonder How did we slowly descend You got into my head I thought that Iā€™d know better Some may say it is the tide mind Pulling in what pushes back, defined Am I awake or am I asleep Am I awake or am I asleep, or am I Am I awake or am I asleep, or am I Chorus And in the clarity it stings a lot like hindsight Play it all in vain and wonder How did we slowly descend You got into my head I thought that Iā€™d know better Stings a lot like hindsight Play it all in vain and so that I would be taking the blame You put me in my place I thought that Iā€™d know better I thought that Iā€™d know better And if you think I should smile Well thereā€™s a change of pace I only wear a mask When Iā€™m off my face Come and face me Fuck your reality Come and face me Fuck your mortality Now that I know better (better) Chorus And in the clarity it Stings a lot like hindsight Play it all in vain and wonder How did we slowly descend You got into my head I thought that Iā€™d know better

Out Of Time 03:31
\Donā€™t wake me when it's over My eyes are tired, only I can tell That the days are getting shorter Thereā€™s no time to believe in myself Feels like I left a piece Of me in my dreams A life I never lived, is it too late for me? A life I never lived, is it too late for me? Chorus Cause Iā€™m holding the ocean While walking the sea bed Iā€™m cold, I fold Under the weight of the water, yeah I am sinking so swiftly My head is a weapon Love to turn the barrel on me Or when it gets old I turn on everyone I can see Questioning all that I am and all Iā€™ll never be All I hear are echoes of a fucking memory Of a time where I could create anything Hallucinate anything Was looking forward to everything Now itā€™s taking me to a place Where Iā€™m saving face I feel Iā€™m losing faith And youā€™re telling me that itā€™s over Iā€™m not ready to go there So take me back in time To a life that I never lived, is it too late for me? Chorus Cause Iā€™m holding the ocean While walking the sea bed Iā€™m cold, I fold Under the weight of the water, yeah I am sinking so swiftly Are we out of time? Are we out of time? Chorus Cause Iā€™m holding the ocean While walking the sea bed Iā€™m cold, I fold Under the weight of the water, yeah I am sinking so swiftly

Like A Ghost 03:50
When I had intention not to be Clinically numb, diseased Or frozen whilst pretending just to be Can I shake you from the comfort that you need? Defined, like we live just to die Show what youā€™re made of The apple of your eye A thought you canā€™t deny How blind a crater Is left to pacify Your mind is taking over Chorus All you said to me and honestly My own eyes look to deny The fall that I fear most of all Burning bridges in your own mind Whatā€™s left behind when the silence takes it all? I wanna float like a ghost with a human touch So climb, just climb So catch yourself and brace for impact So climb, so climb, so climb, brace for the impact Chorus All you said to me and honestly My own eyes look to deny The fall that I fear most of all Burning bridges in your own mind Whatā€™s left behind when the silence takes it all? I'd say I've seen it all too much Mountains got you feeling down I'd say stir it like a storm How you fail is how you rise after all Chorus All you said to me and honestly My own eyes look to deny The fall that I fear most of all Burning bridges in your own mind Whatā€™s left behind when the silence takes it all?

Afterglow 03:24
Afterglow If I fell into the afterglow Youā€™d never see me The way I was before In a vacant, a vacant, a vacancy It would give me some peace of mind To know that you are happy now So young, elicit with that spark in our eyes I bet we put on quite the show Dank cult on a highway served up Hotel with the stylin' blown up Falling asleep to the sun on the edge of a knife, did you know I'm the one? Made it down to purgatory In the end it's everything you are Chorus If I fell into the afterglow Youā€™d never see me The way I was before In a vacant, a vacant, a vacancy Have you met my friend, she's an icon I see your friend he's an ex-con We break it down with the big guns And youā€™re no rockstar but you're sure acting like one So hot it's paralysing And you like when I get that fight inside me You know that I started a lie We couldnā€™t end cos itā€™s keeping me high Poppinā€™ the Mā€™did you know itā€™s a ride? Keeping my cool ā€˜cause Iā€™m dignified Lights out and retrace the steps that keep us sane Writing my name on the wall in the night Carving my name in your back and itā€™s fine Chorus If I fell into the afterglow Youā€™d never see me The way I was before In a vacant, a vacant, a vacancy And if we didnā€™t love the gasoline Then the fact Iā€™m selfish Wouldnā€™t be the thing that burdens, that burdens, that burdens, that burdens me Have you met my friend, she's an icon I see your friend he's an ex-con Dank cult on a highway served up Hotel with the stylin' blown up
