Good For Me 05:53
Verse: When did shit just get so serious? And why have I fallen down again? I speak in tongues thoughts of delirium And I can’t find my way Monsters feed on all the fear in us And they keep writing down my name I guess my tears just aint sincere enough They’re burning out my brain Chorus: Cause you’re so cruel to me Its the truth, the fear has always been But its so good for me Its so good for me Verse: I daren’t speak what ive been thinking of Lest villains hear what ive became They tried to trick me with these feelings once So help me out, and bring me down again (Chorus x 2)
2.
Verse: Do demons deceive you at night? Do doctors demean you when you cry? Do you have a fever in your mind? You feel it won’t leave the more you try? Chorus: If you don’t feel like your heart is true (I’m telling you) That ive been afraid of the darkness too. If you’re a receiver of thoughts of fools (and they keep telling you) You’ll never escape from the hurt in you. Verse: Do brothers believe you when you lie? And sisters conceal you when you hide? ‘Cause you’ve got a clever in your side You feel you can’t breathe the more you try? (Chorus x 2)
3.
Verse: There must be something good inside of me Im stuck here on the roof while you’re all fighting in the streets Please don’t rescue me Chorus: ‘Cause im just trying to do something new, Instead of lying in a state of fear. ‘Cause feeling strung out aint nothin good, and thanks to you my dear. Ive been squeezing all of the juice from the space between my ears I don’t know how you pull all the shit you do and you’re doing it to me. Verse: You must think there’s a fool inside of me What you show me on the news and what you want me to believe. Who’s my enemy? (Chorus x 2)
4.
Verse: Im sat here waiting for death. But I aint worth the taking, I see the lights aint fading. Hot nicotine stains on my breath. That my lungs are laced in, but my tongue can’t taste it. And I can feel it as it threads through my chest. My head is aching, from all the shit ive been taking. Im obsessed with feeling upset. My hands are shaking, see the mess im making. Chorus: (And) I can’t breathe the air in here Im so deep in my head, my head (And) I can feel the flames of fear Burning in my bed, take me Verse: All I want is one vision of peace. But under my eyelids, all I see is violence You can come but you can’t rescue me They don’t care what I did, its all been decided (Chorus x 2)
5.
Pour It Down 02:49
Verse: Come roll me round and fix the speed of my speech, by breaking my teeth Come on close my mouth Its easy for me, in fear I don’t feel, im only week when I sleep (come on) I’ll show you how, heaven holds no place for me, when im feeding the freak. Chorus Just pour it down - Just pour it down. Verse: Come fold me out You won’t find no crease, or cleaving on me. (Chorus)
6.
Verse: Don’t make a sound Im coming unbound Right about now I seem to have found The walls in this house Breathe in and breathe out The shape of your mouth Is freaking me out Your whispers and frowns Chorus: Darlin come down with me Let me wash down your fear Pieces of doubt come clear When you come down to here. Verse: So spin me around Talk to me too loud And run me aground (Chorus) (Chorus x 2)
7.
You When You 04:21
Verse: Have you ever been feeling strange? Theres something in your heart just don’t feel the same And you never wanna be this way, you never wanna be this way? Have you ever been a fool to kneel? On anything left of any good that you feel And it aint ever gonna be the same, its never gonna be the same? Have you ever just needed change? For all the love in your heart’s only been feeded hate And its taken on all the blame, for shit it never should have been ashamed? Have you ever been a fool to feel? Like you’ve been getting what’s left of the rest of the deal And things for you aint ever gonna change, they’re always gonna stay the same? Chorus: Who do you choose to lose your heart? And who moves to you when you’re in the dark? In the dark? Verse: Have you ever been so deranged? There’s something in your head and it makes you afraid And it aint ever gonna go away, its never gonna go away? Are you sick of just playing games? You sorta say what you mean but never mean what you say And all the weight in which your words will weigh, are dragging you down today? (Chorus X 2)

So Bizzarre 03:57
Verse: I can’t sleep (My heads got the best of me) I can’t breathe (Theres a hole in my chest and it) Cuts deep (and its making a mess of me) These lips (Im putting my medication in) Wont speak (Cause im putting a face on it) Talks cheap (Just like my education is) Chorus: Cause losing you feels so bizarre, and choosing you Gave me the bruised blood that beats in my heart Verse: I speak deep (When there’s nobody next to me) I don’t see (That im arresting my destiny) I keep keep (Keep on wasting the best of me) I don’t freak (When im feeling affection) This scene (Dont ever give it a question) You see (Im something of an infection) Chorus: Cause losing you feels so bizarre To chew the truth, I didn’t know it would be this hard Confusing too - You left these marks Cause choosing you, gave me the bruised blood that beats in my heart. Verse: I can’t sleep (My heads got the best of me) I can’t breathe (Theres a hole in my chest and it) Cuts deep (and its making a mess of me) Chorus: Cause losing you feels so bizarre To chew the truth, I didn’t know it would be this hard Confusing too - You left these marks Cause loosing you feels so bizarre Feels so bizarre - feels so bizarre - It feels so bizarre And choosing you gave me the bruised blood that beats in my heart.
9.
Verse: The fear of falling out, and in of it Is like the ceiling coming down on me So what’s it all about, the state of the rain? I hear it coming round again. Chorus: (See I never noticed) you’re all I talk about (When im stuck in a moment) that I feel I can’t get out (And I try not to show it) each time I open my mouth (But everybody knows it) and I guess you’ll know by now Verse: You’ve never liked the sound of me on tape It just seems to creep you out, you say? And aint it funny how the sound of it Is in the space between us now again? (Chorus x 2) (Chorus)
10.
Keep Movin' 03:33
Verse: When you run out of uses And you’re too tired of losing. When there’s no more excuses I keep movin’ Verse: When they don’t care what you say And they’re telling you you’ve failed. When there’s no point in choosing I keep movin’. Chorus: (I keep movin’ keep movin’) When the accusers accusing. (I keep movin’ keep movin’) When there’s no point in proving. (I keep movin’ keep movin’) When the abusers abusing. (I keep movin’ keep movin’) When they’re burining your bruises. (I keep movin’ keep movin’) I keep movin’.
11.
Verse: As ever this world will turn we’ll forever have books to burn we don’t need we don’t need. They’re touched by the words of gods forever bringing you down and never getting you up from your knees from your knees. Bridge: And I won’t find my faith In lies that hide disgrace. Verse: And I’ve never known what you mean Of “never getting enough of laying love on me” I can’t feel? I can’t feel? You see they never talk about your hate But its written all down your face fo me to see. Bridge: No I won’t find my faith And I won’t hide it. You don’t seem to like that Ill find my own way You’ve said enough to me, you’ve said enough to me Outro: (You’ve said enough to me) *repeat*
