Are you awake I see the dread upon your face Take it away By sleeping all day And where have you been You have been absent my friend I miss the old you you’re not the same lately I I wanna fight this feeling But I can’t get up out of bed It’s like an endless cycle  And I want it all to end Feeling lost I think I need some help Cause I’m starting to Not feel like myself And it’s Days like this That last the longest On & on How is your pace you’re falling behind In your day to day It only gets worse The more that you age I see what you eat It should be a crime How you treat your body But you’ll over consume And then you’ll fall asleep I wanna fight this feeling But I can’t get up out of bed It’s like an endless cycle  And I want it all to end Feeling lost I think I need some help Cause I’m starting to Not feel like myself And it’s Days like this That last the longest On & on Oh my god boy What are you thinkin’ Every time I close my eyes You’d rather be somewhere dreamin’ Than have too face this life I wanna fight this feeling But I can’t get up out of bed It’s like an endless cycle  And I want it all to end Feeling lost I think I need some help Cause I’m starting to Not feel like myself And it’s Days like this That last the longest On & on

Verse 1 I probably told you I was fine but I lied I know you don’t really care So I’ll just hide how I feel inside I’ll make up stories Tell you things that you’d like I know you like when I Fabricate the truth I make you laugh the most When I am in pain Hold back these tears I’m a clown I know I must entertain you all when I go home And I am all by myself I take my make up off And I donno who I am anymore Chorus Why are you so Scared of the truth You always wanna Hideaway from everyone Cause every time I tell the truth They always runaway, runaway Why are you so Scared of the truth You always wanna Hideaway from everyone Cause every time I tell the truth They always runaway from me Verse 2 You say you love me And I know that it’s fake But I don’t wanna be weird So I just smile and say the same You’ve always hid Behind that beautiful face But when I look at you I see a masquerade You say you’ve got my back But I know you don’t We may share the same blood But that does not mean A thing at all Where were you at when I got punched in my face You were standing there Keeping me restrained Chorus Why are you so Scared of the truth You always wanna Hideaway from everyone Cause every time I tell the truth They always runaway, runaway Why are you so Scared of the truth You always wanna Hideaway from everyone Cause every time I tell the truth They always runaway from me

Red Eyes White Lies You spent your life Hiding from it all We were involved  But since you’ve been gone I up and moved to another town Sometimes I phone When I get lonely and I hate that you don’t Pick up my calls Flipping through photos of us Wondering if you’ll come around Why’d you go off and leave? Be honest with me Do you still care for me? Answer me honestly Very first time We met we danced The whole night away How could I forget Such a pretty face I’d come to your place Read you poetry I miss you night & day I had to go I had work on myself And I had to be on my own I know that it’s selfish But I’m wondering If I could see you now You’re still the one for me I’m being honest with you You’re still the love of my life I swear it’s the truth I’m so surprised You feel the way you do Are you truly being honest? Do you still care for me? Be honest with me Do you still want me? (don’t lie) Answer me honestly I still want you in my life I’m being honest with you You’ll always have my love I swear it’s the truth

Alone III 03:22
Verse 1 Take me far away from here Literally anywhere All these people they hate me I must be a fucking creep You see my back up on the wall Everyone leave me alone Take a pill to ease the pain Everyday feels like the same Chorus I wanna take this mask off But I’m afraid what They’ll think of me So I drink until I feel numb It makes it easy To keep pretending  Verse 2 Why do I always feel Like I’m suffering I’m stuck running in place I’m trapped inside my dreams I often see my life through someone else’s eyes Like I’m outside my body I must be losing my mind Chorus 2 I’m always feeling stuck and I need to get out of this place I always seem to give up  And give in to this mental state Bridge You need to go Why are you still here? No one likes you everyone made that clear Hurry and go You don’t belong here *You’re better off alone* Verse 3 All of these feelings started When my shorty up and left Ever since that day happened I haven’t quite felt like myself I need a little remedy I wish you were next to me Since you left me Everyday feels the same Last Chorus Ill drink until I feel numb it makes easy to keep pretending that one day you’ll come on home Come home Back To Me I’m always feeling stuck and I need to get out of this place I always seem to give up  And give in to this mental state
