Life For Granted

I don't know how, but I'l learn to love the things around me.
And accept that life isn't as bad as I make it out to be.
I'll stop complaining. But who am i kidding?
I'd have nothing left to say.
I'm beginning to dread the moment I leave my bed.
It all just feels the same.
Day after day it all seems to blend. I'm wasting away, I'm wasting away.
I never thought I'd be okay with settling.
I never thought I'd be okay with just being okay.
I'm just a ghost in this room, clinging to the walls.
Filling my hands, doing all that i can to avoid holding a conversation with you.
I find comfort in being uncomfortable with my life.

Dream State

Does it even matter? It’s all about to go to hell.
Does it even matter? It all seems so insignificant now.
Give me five years and you won’t recognize me.
I’m selling out my dreams, so I can be,
the person the world expects me to be.
I’m terrified of having nothing to show, for all that I’ve tried to do.
I guess I’m better off just giving up.
I want to be your downfall.
Fall down with me, rise up with me, we’ll get back on our feet.
Give me five years and you won’t recognize me.
I’m selling out my dreams, so I can be,
the person the world expects me to be.
I’m terrified of having nothing to show, for all that I’ve tried to do.
I guess I’m better off just giving up.
I know you don’t care, that I don’t care, that you don’t care at all.
I just wish you could see the change in me.
I wish you could see that I am trying.
I know the pain you feel, caused by the pain I inflict,
cause I’m a pain, stubborn, and so resistant to change.
But I am.
Wake me up from, this constant dream state I’ve been stuck in.
Wake me up and show me something real.

Stumbling
03:38

I’ve been living today, trying to make tomorrow, more like yesterday.
And I’ve glorified, all those memories,
where I was never that happy in the first place.
I’ve been hoping for good news,
I’ve been hoping you’d write back soon.
I’ve been thinking about how you left and how nothing could ever feel the same. I’ve been wandering, drunkenly stumbling, past your house,
hoping to get your attention.
I’ve been living today, trying to make tomorrow, more like yesterday.
And I’ve glorified, all those memories,
where I was never that happy in the first place.
You did what you had to, to get my attention,
but I didn’t care, you knew that I didn’t care.
I did what I thought would get your attention.
But you didn’t care, how could you really care?
You’re a constant reminder of not being good enough.
I never meant a fucking thing.
Never again will I let myself get this desperate.

Eventually Forgotten
02:44
|

|
I sat front row at a funeral, and watched a world end.
As the rest kept on moving, my anxiety set in.
We live, we die, and are eventually forgotten.
So why am I so concerned with everyone’s opinion,
when everyone’s opinion is irrelevant to my life?
Why do I even listen? I suppose that’s my fault.
Your bad times won’t last, so spare me the details.
I’ll keep drinking wine from pop cans,
coping with the thought of mortality.

Death Bed

Sure I see you sitting there, ignoring my existence.
Now you're concerned for your life,
you're concerned with how you lived it.
Save it for your death bed.
So save your breath.
I don't have the patience or the time.
Your apologies, they're too late for me to ever see you differently.
So save your breath your apologies are too late for me.
We were forced into each others lives.
You made it clear that I was worthless, a waste of your time.
Your time is up, bridges burned.
If you couldn't care for me then, how could I care for you now?
Save it for your death bed.
So save your breath.
I don't have the patience or the time.
Your apologies, they're too late for me to ever see you differently.
So save your breath your apologies are too late for me.

Don't Forget About Me

I'm not the bad guy, but I'd like to be.
I'd love to say that I was the one that took all that you cared for.
You only wanted me so you'd feel less alone.
But now that you're done with me, I'll fade into the background.
Don't forget about me.
I threw you a life vest while you were drowning in self pity.
I loaned you a wall of excuses to lean on when your life became to trying.
I'd be lying if I told you I wasn't disappointed, but thats what I get for expecting anything from you.
I let the best of me die in your memory. But don't forget about me.
