Watch Me Drown 04:01
lyrics
buy track
I've been awake all night Cause I did not go home alone Circled the room all night That's how I learned to keep my eyes closed I use the excess to treat my abuse of the excess I'm counting to three so can we just Cross me out, cross me out Chorus: I'm afraid of the mess I'll make My tongue won't hold the truth But I'm not wasting all my pretty years on you Baby this was an accident Why can't you see it too That I'm not wasting all my pretty years on you I feel the thirst come back So I monopolize the conversation Drink till my throats gone dry How could I think I'd find salvation? I know what I wasted by just getting wasted Come Hell or high water let's sit back and Watch me drown, cross me out

Meaningless 03:30
lyrics

I had the conversation in my head Maybe that's how you got me to your bed And it's been days and I haven't been sleeping the same Without you, without you It's really just too bad Chorus: I thought I could have something meaningless with you But now I see So please don't give in to me There's something wrong with me It's really just too bad I had the best intentions when we met But now you're someone I would prefer to forget So after my one night stands and drinking so much I can't stand you Can't stand you It's really just too bad Chorus Don't take tonight to heart I will let you down lightly, but I will let you down

Come High 04:44
lyrics
The come down hits me hard I feel it in my hands I'm remembering a time That I didn't need this at all I was fine on my own Or at least better off without you Chorus: Tonight, I will be watching you all night You're the dealer, so give me the drugs This is a sign, come high, or don't come at all We're so out of touch This was supposed to be the real thing But they cut it weak, and diluted the whole thing This is the start of something terrible She whispers in my ear I'm nostalgic for a high That I haven't felt for so long Where have you been? I need a hit Chorus I want you to feel this At the base of your spine I want you to feel this I want you to feel this Chorus

Spoke Too Soon 04:01
lyrics
I bet you saw what you wanted to see Me at my worst is the best I'll ever be I wish it weren't so hard to be alone But I've got a good feeling that I'll never know The party is over Chorus: I'm afraid I can't get away And no one wants me to spend the night alone So I will open myself up Everyone will get what they want Were you really so surprised when from the start You asked for my body but couldn't have my heart Selfish everyone else won't stop selfish me I was a desperate boy in desperate need Of just one more hand reaching out to save me But rescue came and no one rescued me Chorus I spoke too soon Let me apologize to you Even though I've done nothing wrong Even though I've done nothing wrong Let me apologize to you I spoke too soon Chorus

Fame Is Relative 03:48
lyrics
It took me some time but I know your intentions You don't really like me, you just like the attention Completely superficial, but only where it counts One hell of a good time in small amounts I will make my home inside your heart And you will never get me out I will make my home under your skin And you will let me in Chorus: I spend my nights like days Until they all become the same My addiction is hot but it tries to advise me In the bottles I consume or in the girls who despise me Everything I love destroys me, isn't that what fame means? I will make my home under your skin and you will let me in Chorus: I spend my nights like days Until they all become the same Did you ever really want me? Did you ever even like me? Some days I wish I had fame I want to be the soundtrack to your summer I want to be the reason that you breathe I want to be the one that you can't let go I want to be the reason you won't leave Chorus
