Begin Again

I knocked on your door but no one was home
I left the letter I wrote on your doorstep to greet you hello
But every now and then I think about how things could have been
If I had been slightly considerate or thought about your feelings back then
Do you think we could begin again?
In weather so cold, my shivering bones
Will long to keep yours company, I would hate for you to be alone
But every now and then I think about how things could have been
If I had been slightly considerate or thought about your feelings back then
Do think we could begin again?

It's getting so hard to say goodbye when you're so invested in my life, but I have to go. I'm getting quite sick of this. Of feeling so powerless. Where we end up, I'll never know.
So many friends have walked away, but you never gave enough reasons for me to stay. So I'll turn my back, hang my head in shame. I cant believe I let you make me feel this way again.
I'm still waiting for my goodbye before I erase you from my life, but I have to go. I swear I'm not the kind of guy to swallow all my pride, but you need to know. This home is like no place I've known.
And as he starts to sing, I see the pain begin to show. The way you look at me leaves me oh so vulnerable. Can you inspire me to stay?
I'm still waiting for my goodbye before I erase you from my life, but I have to go. I swear I'm not the kind of guy to swallow all my pride, but you need to know. This home is like no place I've known.

Transparent

Bitter taste in my mouth when I try to speak but nothing comes out. Replay it in my head, all the words I never said collecting dust like vinyl on the shelf.
I did some things I cant take back. Regret has never felt this heavy. I said some things I cant take back, but you've gotta know.
I'm sorry that I wasted all your time. I wanted yours more than you ever needed mine. And now its not enough to tell you that I'm sorry. The damage has been done.
I wish I could explain these stupid thoughts that keep running through my brain. If I could take things back and make everything okay. Then I wouldn't have hurt you after all the things you've been through. I wasn't transparent, but I promise that will change.
I did some things I cant take back. Regret has never felt this heavy. I said some things I cant take back, but you've gotta know.
I'm sorry that I wasted all your time. I wanted yours more than you ever needed mine. And now its not enough to tell you that I'm sorry. The damage has been done.

Drown

Downward spiral, I start to feel alone again. I wish you'd understand the things I said, but exchanging conversation seems to strengthen all my woes. I wish you'd get to know my pain. I've been falling down this darkened hole, lower than I had before, I wonder if I'll make it out again? Will I ever be the same?
But just like a thought, drifting out to sea. I felt my legs give up on me.
So we'll separate like rotting teeth, splitting off piece by piece with hopes of being whole some day. My mind begins to decline quite similar to cheap wine so don't expect me to get better with age.
But just like a thought, drifting out to sea. I felt my legs give up on me. So fill my lungs with water as my thoughts begin to wander incesantly

Never Be

Coming to terms with the past, those years I swore I'd never let go. I'm still afraid to look back and face those years I'd never promote. Keeping secrets, housing deep regret. Forgetting all those times I've spent alone, wasting away. With this weight on my back, is it too much to ask for some type of sign of peace of mind? I've nothing left to sacrifice. I've got nothing left to sacrifice.
More than what I tried to be.
I know that I'll never be, more than what I tried to be.
