Restart this past year
When we all came out through the cracks
Self branded we've reincarnated to be
Bolder, louder, and strong
So we'll make the most of what we've got
Succeeding cause I've got a plot
To bring this world to its knees
For all of you to finally see
So first and foremost
My back is straight to the wall
With nowhere left for me to fall
But with our hands bleeding
My voice is screaming for you
You know what to do
Bring it back home
Flashback to when we sat in the back row
Watching the crowd flow
I can't stand for the old we
Budging the new we
I won't let this break me
So set in stone
This is what I was made for
I'm not gonna struggle
We're better off now that we know
Where we want to be
So first and foremost
My back is straight to the wall
With nowhere left for me to fall
But with our hands bleeding
My voice is screaming for you
You know what to do
And I can't see this world without
The stars that light up the sky
And I can't feel the pleasure of this life
Without my brothers by my side
Can you hear me
(Screaming, screaming)
Can you feel me
(Breathing, I'm breathing)
Well first and foremost
My back is straight to the wall
With nowhere else for me to fall

No you're not a God to me
You are no golden eagle
Move your mouth around
To produce the sound of a wannabe leader
Across the grass land stands me alone
Staring up at your mile high ego
I'm looking down at your miniscule dreams now
How does it feel to know that you're all alone
It's not a secret I don't care
You're educated I'm aware
It's so obvious you need to share
But for the last time I don't care
Well
I don't wanna let the world revolve
Around a scratched up broken record
So get up. shut up, go on, get out
Do what you have to do to put your mind to rest
I'm not here to impress
I've always sat alone and kept to myself
But I think it's about time that you worry about somebody else
You're just a boy in the world
You're just like everyone else
There's nothing new here
Or cool here
Just another expensive and happy life
Get off your high horse
Boy, there's no need to strife
Keep your mouth shut
Get on with your own life
It's not that you're a bad player
But you make me really hate this game
Cross out your mouth for a little bit longer
And for the last time I don't care
Well
I don't wanna let the world revolve
Around a scratched up broken record
So get up. shut up, go on, get out
Do what you have to do to put your mind to rest
I'm not here to impress
Well I've heard you've been calling me out
But if you're trying to get hurt boy
Give me a reason
I don't wanna let the world revolve
Around a scratched up broken record
So get up. shut up, go on, get out
Do what you have to do to put your mind to rest
I'm not here to impress

What a Story, Mark

Stay away from me
I hope you've heard the rumors
The story's out
Your fucking time is up
It's time for me to make my way out
By the hands of my maker
Your rule has come to an end
So now you'll know
Our worlds will never blend
Don't ever try to rip me out or pull me down
This is my golden crown
Maybe next time
I'll be able to read between the lines
I have found a new place
In the right half of my mind
Don't ever take me for granted
I knew I'd be handed
A moment for sincerity
(Sincerity)
This world is littered with your fucking payments
It's so easy to say this
"Shut your mouth"
I don't need charity
So keep away from me
No need to follow through
After this past year
Yeah we would all be better off alone
Maybe next time
I'll be able to read between the lines
I have found a new place
In the right half of my mind
Don't ever take me for granted
I knew I'd be handed
A moment for sincerity
(Sincerity)
I signed the papers with the devil's pen
The ink bled red
Off with your head
Yeah it takes one small step
In the wrong direction
To start the burning
To raise an army
So big and still so small
You put us through it all
Take no more than one

Well I've been lost and I've been found again
Yet I've never heard of your sin
I'm just here
To try to be your monument at hand
Yeah I have travelled far and wide
To find a way to heal you inside
Believe me
I have screamed like I know you have everyday
All you wanna do is run and hide
But I'll be the mind to which you confide
You alone are the limit to yourself
See I've been there with no place to go
Only closed off empty rooms for me to call home
What a lonely life
Just give it time
I know you'll make it through the day
I've been told
All the places that you've called home
Give it time
I know I'm not alone
I've been thinking about
The things you've been through
And I'm just finding out
What it is to be you
Throw your thoughts to the side
I see a really faint light
Coming from in the last known
Burning bush around
(Tyler Reed)
Oh yeah
You know that I've been through this before
This world is getting crazy outside my door
And I no longer wanna explore
So come on
Ask yourself what you're all about
Think about the words that go out your mouth
Don't fill the world with doubt anymore
I've been told
All the places that you've called home
Give it time
I know I'm not alone
I've been thinking about
The things you've been through
And I'm just finding out
What it is to be you
Throw your thoughts to the side
I see a really faint light
Coming from in the last known
Burning bush around
I've been told
All the places that you've called home
Give it time
I know I'm not alone
Not alone
I'm not alone
Not alone
With all the pain
It's hard to even think that you're alive
With every breath
I don't feel right
Well I've been lost and I've been found again
Yet I've never heard of your sin
I'm just here
To try to be your monument at hand
I've been thinking about
The things you've been through
And I'm just finding out
What it is to be you
Throw your thoughts to the side
I see a really faint light
Coming from in the last known
Burning bush around

I built this house upon the ashes you caused
Yet you never gave an overwhelming round of applause
When I speak I always held the highest apparel
But deep down in your mind
Your whole body trembles
I see a red girl at the edge of the room
Looking into a mirror at the different shades of you
I gave you once chance, no two chances, no three
God no more
Cope the depression acquired with the drugs you adore
With all the bullshit
With all the moods that you swing
You're awaited by the silence social actions can bring
Yeah you've been played before
And you'll be played again
No control for yourself
Or for the boys that you let in
This is a callout
An overwhelming shot of the truth
With all the lies you brought into the other half of you
From castles to cardboard
Compared low to the rest
There's not a thing of pride
To carry on your chest
With every breath I take
You slowly turn your head away from me
With broken bottles helping you to see
I wrote the code on what it means to hold
Another life in yours
Please don't remember me when you're alone
You made your own choice
And now you're hearing your own voice
Speak the words from the wise
To the thoughts that cause your demise
Tell me how it feels to know that you have
No place to go
You're on your own
No thoughts of relapse
To a time when a smile could make a day
To a time when you'd look to him
And he told you
You'll be okay
With every breath I take
You slowly turn your head away from me
With broken bottles helping you to see
I wrote the code on what it means to hold
Another life in yours
Please don't remember me when you're alone
In a world filled with a million shattered eyes
With no space for haste when it comes to your lies
As the king of this thrown
I see all that lies
I'm telling you now
You won't survive
You think you'll get the best of me
But in time you'll see three times is up
Make way for the man that I am
Upon this pedestal
Which I stand
With every breath I take
You slowly turn your head away from me
With broken bottles helping you to see
I wrote the code on what it means to hold
Another life in yours
Please don't remember me when you're alone
When you're alone
