Hey what's taking you so long? I feel the tension in my spine it's building up I just can't seem to get through to you Before you know it I'll be up and running Just for the hell of it So you don't have to worry cause I'll be okay I never had you in the first place anyway How did we end up in this situation I'd make it right if I had some motivation I can't wrap my mind around it You're just not willing to fight for it So go ahead and just take it all away Just for the hell of it So you don't have to worry cause I'll be okay I never had you in the first place anyway How did we end up in this situation I'd make it right if I had some motivation Take it all away Just for the hell of it So you don't have to worry cause I'll be okay I never had you in the first place anyway How did we end up in this situation I'd make it right if I had some motivation

Can I get a second chance? We could bring back some memories Can I say anything at all that you would believe in? So hang on a minute I'm not the only one to blame here Yeah there is nothing you can say to get me to stay here Feels like we've been here for hours Without any progress When we get speechless but we hardly even notice So I'll be on my way Yeah I'll be on my way Tell me are you ready? Are you prepared for a letdown? Cause that's the only thing that you can really count on So can we get a move on? I'm not getting any younger We're so delusional and noone understands it So I'll be on my way Yeah I'll be on my way So can I get a second chance? We could bring back some memories Can I say anything at all that you would believe in? (oh no) So I'll be on my way Yeah I'll be on my way Yeah I'll be on my way

Let Go 05:00
I've been thinking about you lately And how things used to be It's been so long since I've seen you Tell me how have you been You said «It's too late for me and I don't have any dreams left» Don't let them hold you back Let Go Forget what they think they know Let Go Forget what you think they know Let Go Do you remember how we used to laugh? Don't think I ever could forget Do you ever feel like it's all for nothing? Like you don't even have a say You said «It's too late for me and I don't have any dreams left» So come with me and don't look back Let Go Forget what they think they know Let Go Forget what you think they know Let Go You said «It's too late for me and I don't have any dreams left» Don't let them hold you back Don't let them hold you back Let Go Forget what they think they know Let Go Forget what you think they know Let Go You can do what you wanna do Let Go You can be who you wanna be Let Go

Rolling with the punches Won't listen to your nonsense I think that it's about time That we called it even Can't keep a straight face You've got your game-face I'm beyond depressed now And don't even know why Something always comes up And it feels like I'm going down Something always comes up And it feels like we've hit the ground Desperate for the spotlight It's your highlight I need someone to talk to But not someone like you It's out in the open We're all alone and I can't put my finger on it We've reached a point now Something always comes up And it feels like I'm going down Something always comes up And it feels like we've hit the ground Something always comes up Something always comes up Something always comes up Something always comes up

Whats all the noise about? You said you didn't care if I was leaving So believe me now You've heard the last of me Were up against the wall Not surprising after all And you look at me like I'm suppose to say something But what the hell am I suppose to say You don't care about me anyway It's not like you ever pay attention When I try to have a conversation with you Whats with your twitching eyes? Suddenly you care and expect me to do the same I have been patiently waiting So don't expect a call This was easy after all And you look at me like I'm suppose to say something So what the hell am I suppose to say You don't care about me anyway It's not like you ever pay attention When I try to have a conversation with you Don't tell me what to do I say you Don't care about me Anyway And you look at me like I'm suppose to say something So what the hell am I suppose to say You don't care about me anyway It's not like you ever pay attention When I try to have a conversation with you

Nothing 02:06
Take it from me You'll never know How it could be I can't let it go But there's nothing I can say to make you feel this way There's nothing I can do Anyway I may be hopeless But I'll be home When you're alone But there's nothing I can say to make you feel this way There's nothing I can do Anyway

Lose Ground 02:54
I have been dying to tell you That I don't need you and I don't miss you I'd make it right if I knew how But I don't so why should I try I know if I could find a way to relieve all this built-up tension Yeah I'm sure that that would give me your attention Don't want to lose ground So I prepare for a let down Don't want to lose ground So I prepare for a let down I will do my best to show you That I'm not so disappointed But I can't think straight at all so Your emissions go right through me I know if I could find a way to relieve all this built-up tension Yeah I'm sure that that would give me your attention Don't want to lose ground So I prepare for a let down Don't want to lose ground So I prepare for a let down I can't stand these god damn conflicts So I'll spill my guts for you I don't care about tomorrow So I'll spill my guts for you Don't want to lose ground So I prepare for a let down Don't want to lose ground So I prepare for a let down

If you ask me why I'm never there I'll just tell you what you want to hear Makes me question what I did for you Makes me wonder how to make it through It's dangerous to listen Don't pay attention So could we tear down these walls Or could we break down these doors I never saw it coming never thought you'd see through all the little lies I've been telling to you Oh it hit me like a punch in the face I think I need some kind of embrace Can't you see how much I hate this place Makes me look like I don't give a damn Makes you question who the fuck I am It's dangerous to listen Don't pay attention So could we tear down these walls Or could we break down these doors I never saw it coming never thought you'd see through all the little lies I've been telling to you Oh it hit me like a punch in the face It's dangerous to listen Don't pay attention So could we tear down these walls Or could we break down these doors I never saw it coming never thought you'd see through all the little lies I've been telling to you Oh it hit me like a punch in the face

I'll be waiting, but not for too long Not in my nature to depend I'll keep you waiting, for hours on end Let's pick it up when I get back It's a risk of gaining more and losing all that we have I'm open for the leap If you're ready I am all in So when I say this to your dismay it could go either way I'll try to let my guard down I should be leaving, any moment But something seems to hold me back I'm gonna leave this up to you so Let's pick it up when I get back It's a risk of gaining more and losing all that we have I'm open for the leap If you'reready I am all in So when I say this to your dismay it could go either way I'll try to let my guard down Do you know what it would be like You seem so sure of it. Is it that obvious How do you know what it would be like Don't be so sure of this. It's not that obvious It's a risk of gaining more and losing all that we have I'm open for the leap If your're ready I am all in So when I say this to your dismay it could go either way I'll try to let my guard down

All rise, I'm pleading with urgency Just another case of insurgency Stand resolute against the enemy That's what we learned from our history The authority rebels That's what they practice The black economy pays no taxes Be seated I'm prone to indecision Faced with an optimistic opposition I've learned to never trust a politician This is a good time for an intermission It's corrupted and that's no understatement Nobody cares if your puns are unintended (objection, rejection) Get down you'll never get a second chance Just another victim of circumstance Nobody cares what you have to say Don't you know that that's hearsay You play the system and you will get burned And at this very moment court has been adjourned
11.
I don't need you here Don't even care I don't want anything from you I don't need no smile It's not worth while I don't want anything from you Cause it's not easy To fall in love with you Oh I'll never fall in love with you Oh you can't tell me what to do Don't want to fall in love You don't have to stay I'll be okay I don't want anything from you You don't want me here Not anymore You dropped my heart down to the floor Cause it's not easy To fall in love with you Oh I'll never fall in love with you Oh you can't tell me what to do Don't want to fall in love I don't need you here Don't even care I don't want anything from you I don't need no smile It's not worth while I don't want anything from you Cause it's not easy To fall in love with you Oh I'll never fall in love with you Oh you can't tell me what to do Don't want to fall in love

On the surface I couldn't tell On the surface I couldn't tell Your gonna eat your words When I prove you wrong You put me in my place For now I'll hold my tongue There's nothings else I can do so I gotta Adjust to the rhythm/ Adjust to the rhythm There's nothing else I can say so I gotta Adjust to the rhythm/ Adjust to the rhythm I feel it in my spine You better keep it together I don't want to know That is the bottom line You better keep it together and just let it go On the surface I couldn't tell On the surface I couldn't tell There is no doubt in my mind And I have nothing to prove There's nothings else I can do so I gotta Adjust to the rhythm/ Adjust to the rhythm There's nothing else I can say so I gotta Adjust to the rhythm/ Adjust to the rhythm I feel it in my spine You better keep it together I don't want to know That is the bottom line You better keep it together and just let it go You can rely on me for hesitation I'm in the need for some consideration I feel it in my spine You better keep it together I don't want to know That is the bottom line You better keep it together and just let it go

No Progress 03:27
I show up just to turn him down It feels like I've hit the ground Needs must when the devil drives You can't say you're that surprised So tell me how can we decrease The disturbance of the peace There are some mistakes you just can't make So make your case while you still have my attention You seem to think you have all the information We tried so hard to undo this situation It's time to face that this is our destination I don't know how to make it last I keep it locked up inside A golden key can open any door But it's not like it was before So tell me how can I forget All the things that I regret There are some mistakes you just can't make So make your case while you still have my attention You seem to think you have all the information We tried so hard to undo this situation It's time to face that this is our destination I'm not making any progress I'm not making any progress at all I'm not making any progress I'm not making any progress at all So make your case while you still have my attention You seem to think you have all the information We tried so hard to undo this situation It's time to face that this is our destination
