- Track Name: Can't Stand You
- All she wants is a little attention. I’m aware, but I won’t give in. All she wants is to see me suffer, but I’m ready for another chance to make her stumble to the ground. Chance to make her wish she never found me. I won’t wait for you. I know you’re listening, and I know you’re still wishing you didn’t miss me, but I’m glad you’re so unhappy. I know you’ll listen to this song, and wonder what went wrong. That’s okay. We’re better off this way. I can’t stand anything you stand for. I can’t fall for all your lies. So many questions running through my head, “Why did I even try to make us work?” I knew I was in over my head-phones play our favorite songs. You won’t catch me singing along. I can’t stand anything about you.
- Track Name: Disastrophe
- I never knew how dead this city could be. Without you here, I thought that I’d be free. But I wake up late just to sit here and wait for something, anything to come my way. My days remain the same. Was never much into drunken games. Since high school, my friends slipped away. Nothing will ever change. My days remain the same. There’s nothing to do on this Friday night, but I won’t go down without a fight. Whether I finish first or I finish last, you’ll forget my name because I’m not coming back. It never fails I’m always in the same spot. Nothing is new. It’s always the same old plot. Don’t want to deceive. Just hear me speak. Never wanted my friends to look down on me. And now I wish that you could see.
- Track Name: Swinging For The Fences
- This time I’m swinging for the fences. I’m putting it all on the line. I’ll answer all your wishes, if you just give me the time. I’m standing in the batter’s box and it’s a full count. I’m not going home with a loss, ‘cause this time, I’m not striking out. You’re so perfect. I’m not worth it. Your heart’s not mine, but I’ll do anything for it. The clock is ticking. My heart is racing. And I’m running out of things to say. The look in your eyes caught me by surprise. I get a feeling that says it’ll be okay. You’re my whole world. You’re my only pearl. I can’t tell you enough that I want you to be my girl. This song I’m writing, the things I’m saying, I want you to know that it’s all for you.
- Track Name: Close To Home
- Lately, all these lyrics hit so close to home. I feel like my life’s being narrated by the voice in my headphones. This white trash town and this hardcore crowd will be the death of me. Why can’t this town help itself? I will never sink as low as everybody else. I don’t think it’s worth getting down about. I won’t sink my head into the ground. Can’t say that I’m proud of where I come from. I’m the only one I know not strung out on drugs. I’ve got my head up in the clouds. I’ve got my feet planted on the ground. I won’t follow behind this crowd. I won’t let them drag me down.
- Track Name: No Regrets
- Back in this place, I can’t forget the look on your face. That night, I had to let go. Please tell me all that I need to know. I’m tired of standing still. Time just moves without me. And now what seems fake is real. And I’m just stuck here waiting. Well that’s all over just brush off your shoulders and pretend it never meant a thing. As we all grow up, we give up too. We forget about whatever mattered. Not that we ever knew. Stuck in space, another time I thought I’d misplaced. Your eyes, cut through my lies, as if I’d ever try to hide. And when it really counts I won’t come through for you. I’ll try to climb my way out of this rut I fell into. Deep down inside I have regrets, but regrets are mistakes I won’t forget.
- Track Name: You're Still In Our Hearts
- It seems like yesterday, we’re sitting on front porches telling childhood stories. I hate the fact that we all grew up. This was never supposed to happen to us. Those were the best times of my life, a chance to look up to you and idolize. Now the world is weighing down on me, and you’re not here to show me how to lead. When you left, you took a piece from me. I keep thinking that you’re still here, and when it runs through my mind, I hold back tears. I never knew that life could be so harsh. I hope this scars keep me from falling apart. I’m falling apart. I’ve still not convinced myself that you’re never coming back. I play this scene over in my head and you open the door with your contagious laugh. I think that’s what I miss the most. I miss being happy. I’m not even close. I know you’d tell me not to hang my head, but it gets harder at 3am in my bed. It’s getting harder to breathe. I’m falling apart. I need you here. I’ll never get far without you here. We’re falling apart. You’re still in our hearts.
- Track Name: Popularity
- We were so caught up in popularity. We wish we had it all. Now we wonder what counts for the most, missing our brags and reasons to boast. So hide your show behind your smile. You built up this thoughtless style. We’ve heard every hopeless lie. You won’t escape this town alive. High school drama never bothered you. You could call this fates last move. This town will bury you in rumors, but that would be just what you want. This town will pull you to the ground. All your grudges will be found. You’ll be stuck at drama’s end. I guess that secrets don’t make friends.
- Track Name: Streetlights
- It’s a long drive on a Friday night. We’re heading out. Let’s leave this town. Darkness is falling on the evening now, and I find myself alone in the crowd. We’re moving faster for what we’re after. I’m sick of running in circles. To the next city over, we’re only getting older. Passing these streetlights and street signs, I’ve never been so happy. Been on the road with my best friends, playing this song over and over again. I hope this never ends. It’s a mistake that we stay up late, but we’ll do it again as we place this pen on this paper to write this song. We know this is where we belong.
- Track Name: A Tidal Wave
- 4am and we won’t sleep. Our style won’t be beat. This is our time, it’s our year. We’re taking off. No more fear. Streetlights cover this sacred ground, a reminder to this worthless town. These past five years have taught me well, how to live a life in hell. Let’s hit this summer hard. Let’s give it all we’ve got. Let’s make a run so far from here. We’ll leave this town behind us. No one will ever find us. We’ll make this summer time last all year. We’ll rough up this endless sea, a tidal wave of things to see. Bruises and scars will mark our past. A million more will come and pass. Autumn’s come and we don’t care. This town’s run down from wear and tear. So throw your hands up. Sing it loud. “We’re still kids and we’re still proud.”
- Track Name: Stand Up, Stand Out
- Don’t sell yourself short and don’t just follow in line. Don’t let yourself be brainwashed into thinking that you’re falling out of time. I don’t believe in this American dream. 2 story houses never meant much to me. The interstate is where my heart will always be. In the end, I’m not listening. To all the voices telling me I’m wrong. The same ones said I could do what I wanted when I was young. Stand up, stand out. Live your life without a doubt. No matter what may be, I’ll promise you can count on me. Stand up, stand out and we’ll forget all about those lost dreams, those memories and everything that we’re expected to be. The thoughts in my mind are what keep me alive. The dreams I’m following are what keep my heart going. I’m not asking you to change your mind. I’m just letting you know that I’ve already made mine. And it will always be this way. I may sound wrong, but I have nothing more to say. I can honestly say I love sleeping in new places, seeing all new face, filling up these holes and empty spaces. It’s something I’ve come to realize. Nothing will feel this right. This world’s a great place to see you’ll never take it from me. You’ll never take this from me.
