Expectations 02:28
I want to tell you 'bout the end of the world It didnt happen like you expected Cuz everything imploded when your soul met my eyes I want to tell you about the end of the world I want to tell you how it happened when i let go of your hand And i could see again the death of wonderland Fell in love with expectations again Fell in love with expectations again I want to tell you bout the end of the line Deep inside deep inside its in your mind Its in your eyes Oh you lie I wanna tell you i wanna tell you bout the end I want to tell you how it happened when i looked in to your soul And we would try to talk But it would speak in code Fell in love with expectations again Fell in love with expectations again I wanna give you the forecast of my mind It’s raining from all thoughts I've idealized But its getting better Fell in love with expectations again Fell in love with expectations again And again and again and again

Take My Hand 03:55
Lately I feel lost Forgetful mind, Regretful thoughts They eat away my soul Peculiar taste with a heavier Toll on my body, becoming somebody else I needed to hold on But I cannot recognize myself But you take my hand To remind me im here That im not invisible Life's just a means to an end You take my hand So Take my hand T-take control I’m pulling back Behind my skull A breathing cadaver Just walking so brainless so aimless Forgive my struggle and constant stumbling I want to be better But I cannot recognize what's right But you take my hand To remind me im here That im not invisible Life's just a means to an end You take my hand And say all is forgotten Share the weight of my problems Cuz they won't change how you feel When you take my hand I'm calling your name But if I wanted to set the weight of my thoughts free I'll have to forgive the ones that have harmed me But I just can not forgive me But I'm not alone no I'm not Cuz you take my hand To remind me im here That im not invisible Life's just a means to an end You take my hand And say all is forgotten Share the weight of my problems Cuz they won't change how you feel When were hand in hand I’m calling your name

Gimme 04:08
Frozen out in space She's far too beautiful She wont notice me My camoflauging soul Hopeless telescope Bring me closer to her lips She'll be out of reach And I cant wake her from her sleep Gimme your hand Gimme your heart Gimme your love love love Her gravitation pulls At my aimless floating mind If i could set a course To keep her by my side This cold would never feel so warm out here In the stars we'll disappear Gimme your hand Gimme your heart Gimme your love love love If i could only let go For just one night I wish to be one with her soul And hope to make this Night live forever inside my head So let's make a memory Gimme your hand Gimme your heart Gimme your love love love

Childish 03:30
Anger Reds the color Can't distinguish between friend or foe Because i want something i can't afford Fire Quick to throw a fit Making scenes like I'm dicaprio But The greed makes me an animal Danger My claim to fame I wear shoes to big for me to fill But im bullet proof so shoot to kill Ah The world is at my feet At the center you'll find me Ah Forget about the give and take Cuz i will always want it all Dont you know that I cant hear a word you say Im at the top of my lungs I cant always get my way But i want it i want it Don't be dont be childish Insane But not to blame I’m a victim of the gluttony give me something new so i can feed Ah The world is at my feet At the center you'll find me Ah Forget about the give and take Cuz i will always want it all Dont you know that I cant hear a word you say Im at the top of my lungs I cant always get my way But i want it i want it Don't be dont be childish

Retreat 03:37
To the man in the darkness Who's hiding all of his darkest routines Don't be afraid when the light covers your eyes And we can see the truth We see you Ooo I keep seeing life in different colors But somehow I end up in the gray Cuz I’m afraid to tackle all of the giants That cast a shadow Over me I'm calling retreat But I’m afraid to run away from my feet I’m calling retreat But courage keeps on coming over me Think again think again think again stop Running in circles scared gettin myself caught Getting with the wrong crowd wrong time wrong sounds wrong Words wrong turns Raw fish putrid Get sick stupid Nah man I'm miss calculated The he said she said Mr exaggerated I wanna run away but ill stand corrected This man keeps talking in secrets Keeps spitting truth against the wind on his cheeks He’s saying light is a choice in this darkness I am your enemy I'm calling retreat But I’m afraid to run away from my feet I’m calling retreat But courage keeps on coming over me Retreat to the man in the mirror you’re not a failure til you choose to retreat

Hands pressed high Pushed through the sky And you said your scared of dying alone But theres no more pain or suffering but I said I'm scared that you died alone Your two hands your two feet Trying hard to Reach the ground and Hold on memories Dont leave Dont leave The fear, it left, you’re right Go go Into the light I always thought id get to say goodbye But my words never reached your ears And now that you are gone id love to tell you That I love you But my words will never reach your ears Your two hands your two feet Trying hard to Reach the ground and Hold on memories Dont leave Dont leave The fear, it left, you’re right Go go Into the light Go go Into the light Go go Into the light into the light Into the light Into the light Let it shine Into the light Into the light let it shine
