Becoming exceptional
At faking I’m fine
In one vulnerable moment
I became everything I feared
Feels like I’m wearing a mask
My inhibitions are constantly low
Ask no questions
Tell no lies
So this is what rock bottom feels like
I blame myself, I blame myself
I won’t let this experience define who I am
I blame myself, I blame myself
Brace this storm, brace this storm
The only way up is from here
I have made it hard for myself
But I’m fighting through this
No more searching for an escape
A new day, a new challenge to face
With desperation and persistence
I will stand defiant
Falling into bad habits again
Bury my head in the sand
Looking down, I know I shouldn’t do this
But I still do
Ask no questions
Tell no lies
So this is what rock bottom feels like
I blame myself, I blame myself
I won’t let this experience define who I am
I blame myself, I blame myself
Brace this storm, brace this storm
The only way up is from here
I have made it hard for myself
But I’m fighting through this
No more searching for an escape
A new day, a new challenge to face
With desperation and persistence
I will stand defiant
Keep standing strong
Never going to throw it all away
I will continue to grow
I’ve always tried to see how much I can get away with
Brace this storm, brace this storm
The only way up is from here
I have made it hard for myself
But I’m fighting through this
No more searching for an escape
A new day, a new challenge to face
With desperation and persistence
I will stand defiant
Keep standing strong
Never going to throw it all away
I will continue to grow
Because it’s all I know

So close to being abandoned
But it’s still the two of us
Apathy has grown
So big it’s lonely
Jump off this sinking ship
Love is not always equal
Drifting apart
Even with our anchors lowered
How can we come back from this,
And share a union?
Our hearts beat the same
But mine is falling apart
Our hearts beat the same
But mine is falling behind
Question mark in my heart
The more I try, the more it hurts (the more it hurts)
Out of sight, out of mind
Is that how I find the strength to move on?
Will I ever find it? Will I ever find it?
Is that how we find the strength to move on? (Will we ever find it?)
If you want to know where your heart is
Look to where your mind goes when it wanders
Have we have past the point of no return?
Have we reached the summit?
Are we running towards a dead end?
I’m running out of time
I’m running out of time
Nothing lasts forever
I don’t want these feelings to end
I don’t want these feelings to fade
I don’t want these feelings to end
I don’t want these feelings to fade
Our hearts beat the same
But mine is falling apart
Our hearts beat the same
But mine is falling behind
Question mark in my heart
The more I try, the more it hurts
Out of sight, out of mind
Is that how I find the strength to move on?
Will I ever find it? Will I ever find it?
Is that how we find the strength to move on? (Will we ever find it?)
We’re not there yet
But we’re getting closer
I knew it would hurt
But not this much
We are not there yet
But we’re getting closer
I knew it would hurt
But not this much
The more I try, the more it hurts
Out of sight, out of mind
Is that how I find the strength to move on?
Will I ever find it? Will I ever find it?
Is that how we find the strength to move on? (Will we ever find it?)
Is that how we find the strength to move on?
Our hearts beat the same
But mine is falling apart
I don’t want these feelings to end
I don’t want these feelings to fade (the strength to move on)

Survive
03:36

Manic grieving is pulling me under
I’ll take this energy and turn it into a strength
Competition in your tears
Recognition on your mind
Go through the motions
But just a pantomime
Cry your crooked tears
But you are still a fake
Overwhelmed hysteria
Then return to normal
Seeking attention
Within a tragedy
Accused emotionless
It’s there but you can’t see it
And now I’m moving ever closer to the edge
And now I’m moving ever closer to the edge
And now I’m moving
Manic grieving is pulling me under
I’ll take this energy and turn it into a strength
Through the dark clouds, through the dark nights
I will survive in silence
I will survive in silence
I won’t search for sympathy
Just like I suffer in silence
I will survive in silence
I heed but I won’t
I heed but I won’t
Finding it harder to believe you
Your see through life
What makes you think you have the right?
To avoid the truth
Your transparent narcissism
Enrages me
And on my own
Display resilience
Competition in your tears
Recognition on your mind
Competition in your tears
Recognition on your mind

Skeleton Key
03:23

Tip the scales in my favour
I can open up any door
From strength to strength
And always wanting more
Asif I’m walking on air
Own the day, won’t let the day own me
Catch me if you can
I’m not slowing down
My spark will light up the whole sky
Don’t tell me I can’t be what I want
I am not defined by your opinions of me
In my hand I hold the skeleton key
I don’t need a leader (I don’t need to be led)
Where most fear to tread
No fear, no trepidation
In my hand I hold the skeleton key
Create my own luck
I won’t wait for it to come to me
Flying close to the sun
As I create endless barriers
Live in the moment
I won’t wait for it to come to me
The fire will continue to burn
I won’t be a throwaway
Active not reactive
My euphoria has taken control
You can’t knock me off
I’m holding my ground, I’m holding my ground
Active not reactive
My euphoria has taken control
You can’t knock me off
I’m holding my ground, I’m holding my ground
My spark will light up the whole sky
Don’t tell me I can’t be what I want
I am not defined by your opinions of me
In my hand I hold the skeleton key
I don’t need a leader (I don’t need to be led)
Where most fear to tread
No fear, no trepidation
In my hand I hold the skeleton key
My euphoria knows no bounds
Now I am relentless
I can’t slow down
The future is mine

Evolve

If I continue there will be no endgame
Living this way, I cannot sustain
No more breaking promises to myself
Try to justify
000
I tell myself time and time again
I tell myself time and time again
Even in darkness
My will won’t be broken down
I’ve made mistakes, I’ve made bad choices
Stand up, live with integrity
My conscience is just a whisper
Evolve into a scream
So I can start to obey
And live with integrity
Stop giving in
You get what you deserve
Need to withstand
Problems I create for myself
Losing balance
I can’t keep walking this tightrope
Losing the battle
Against myself
I tell myself time and time again
I tell myself time and time again
Even in darkness
My will won’t be broken down
I’ve made mistakes, I’ve made bad choices
Stand up, live with integrity
My conscience is just a whisper
Evolve into a scream
So I can start to obey
And live with integrity
Starting tomorrow I’m gonna change
Starting tomorrow I’m gonna change
Starting tomorrow I’m gonna change
Starting tomorrow I’m gonna change
Starting tomorrow it starts with me
Starting tomorrow I’m gonna change
Even in darkness
My will won’t be broken down
I’ve made mistakes, I’ve made bad choices
Stand up, live with integrity
My conscience is just a whisper
Evolve into a scream
So I can start to obey
And live with integrity
Starting tomorrow I’m gonna change
Starting tomorrow I’m gonna change
Starting tomorrow I’m gonna change
Starting tomorrow I’m gonna change
