i woke up this morning i was still a mess i saw it coming anything that can go wrong it sure will i don't even know why i keep trying everything i do to try to fight it is a step to realizing i can't make you love me again or understand and that's not fair i did my best to get there but there's always this one mistake that i do again and again

New plan 02:40
i didn't mean to make you cry i wanted you to notice i'd do it better next time is the only thing we lack the only thing we're buying and still we don't have enough of telling all these lies of saying that we're sorry sometimes i fear we go back to the days when we were young when you don't need to worry i guess it wasn't that bad we have to be this and that we need to take care of way too much we better be right on time i think we need a new plan i found myself trapped in this town i never saw it coming how did i make it this far from the people that i love the things that i like doing i said i wouldn't feel sad that you had to change so much that we no longer know you i knew you wouldn't give up for a day or two and down so down that i can't touch you is this where we're heading now we have to be this and that we need to take care of way too much we better be right on time i think we need a new plan

I wouldn't 01:04
how did you find the place where i was hiding i did my best not to leave any clues 'cause when i disappear i realize that I'm alive but don't get me wrong it ain't nothing you do i wouldn't ask you for a ride if it wasn't this late i wouldn't ask you to take me back home i wouldn't let you finish last if you were slower i wouldn't let you take me home anyway why would you keep such a stupid secret from me i am not hurt but I don't understand 'cause if i got it well i'm the only you should've run for when there was something that wasn't going well i wouldn't ask you for a ride if it wasn't this late i wouldn't ask you to take me back home i wouldn't let you finish last if you were slower i wouldn't let you take me home anyway

doing it only to show that you can staying up late giving more than you have when you don't even want to be here making up stories you wouldn't believe doing the faces or the big magic tricks look up here no it's not what it seems i'll tell you once, she said don't waste your time you see me now but I may change my shape or change my mind pictures of people you no longer see vaguely remember who you wanted to be in the end we all cease to believe i'll tell you once, she said don't waste your time you see me now but I may change my shape or change my mind

Empty boxes 02:26
the place is a mess all in boxes all packed in we don't talk at the table we have a lot on our plates and i look at floor I don't need to see your face but you look at the door you know that you will regret fire slowly dies in the back porch we all drink and talk by the front door sun's setting down it's still summer and we still don't know anything at all this place is a mess empty boxes dust everywhere we laugh at the table that's the best that it gets and i look through the window it’s starting to rain and you look at the door still you don't understand fire grows slowly in the back porch they all drink and talk by the front door this winter sun feels like summer but we are not around anymore
6.
The Minders 02:12
and then you would run and i would go for you it's not fun but no one said it would or maybe you'd yell and it'd feel so dark and i'd get scared but all i'd do is play that song from the minders again and watch your dying plants dance to it open doors let the light in again 'till you can see the difference it's just that simple those days that you're gone and for some stupid reason i feel sick that's all i get to be and the days that you are down and my jokes are all knives you throw me back then all i do is play that song from the minders again and watch your dying plants dance to it open doors let the light in again 'till you can see the difference it's just that simple
7.
Faces 03:08
i see faces here faces they remind me of people that i've been i see faces here faces i was you and you but now it's more like me and the night is still long and it all can go wrong but the morning it hurts when you see what you've done i see faces here faces they're exactly who i don't want to be i see faces here faces you would try to but no i won't take that shit and the night is still long and it all can go wrong but the morning it hurts when you see what you've done again
