Happiness
Happiness eludes me still
I try to find my way through
The mess I made
Cuz I'm still caught up in you
And all the while
I tried for you
And all the While
I lied to you
Again
Loneliness
Loneliness consumes me still
I try to find my way through
The maze I'm in
But I gave the map to you
I'm lost again
And all the while
I tried for you
And all the while
I lied to you
Please forgive me
Please forgive me
Cuz I am lost
And I can't find my way home
Please forgive me
Please forgive me
For my sins
To you
Loneliness
Loneliness consumes me still
I'm lost again
And all the while
I tried for you
And all the while
I lied to you
Again

You look through the window
Into darkness searching for a sign
Is there life within there?
Or is it time to say that final goodbye?
But I'll be fine
I just need you too
Stay for a while
And hold on too
My heart while I
Try to see this through
See this through
A figure emerges
Body beaten,
Bruised and broken from the fray
The glass won't break
But with your hand remind him
That there's life beyond the cage
But I'll be fine
I just need you too
Stay for a while
And hold on too
My heart while I
Try to see this through
See this through
I'll be fine
I just need you too
Stay for a while
And hold on too
My heart while I
Try to see this through
See this through

There's a wall
Inside of me that I
Cannot climb
Been struggling all these years
But still I find
The floor beneath my feet
Is feeling fine
I could stay another year
But time is moving faster than a bullet train
If I don't fucking move
I will lose the will to try
And I will never breathe
Why am I afraid?
The finish line is
Not too far away
As I go
To make the change
My shadow pulls me
Into the dirt again
There's a door
Infront of me and I
Have the key
But I'm still struggling
To move my feet
And all this time I've wasted being "here"
When "here's" not happening
So time's still moving faster than a bullet train
If I don't fucking move
I will lose the will to try
And I will never breathe
Why am I afraid?
The finish line is
Not too far away
As I go
To make the change
My shadow pulls me
Into the dirt again
So time's still moving faster than a bullet train
If I don't fucking move
I will lose the will to try
And I will never breathe
Why am I afraid?
The finish line is
Not too far away
As I go
To make the change
My shadow pulls me
Into the dirt again
Why am I afraid?
The finish line is
Not too far away
As I go
To make the change
My shadow pulls me
Into the dirt
Into that dirt again

A warming summer day
Keeps the Autumn leaves at bay
Our home begins to change
The old becomes the strange
But I won't be afraid
No I won't be afraid
The colour changes red
In the dark the fire spreads
Our chemicals are checked
Breathe anew
And start again
But I won't be afraid
No I won't be afraid
And now it's time to leave
A simple turn is all
It takes to make me see
That I'm no longer afraid
No I'm no longer afraid
I am no longer afraid

It was a cold November evening
Alcohol flowing through our veins
It was a pain that brought us closer
Though circumstances weren't the same
As the morning crept in closer
Nothing could calm the storm you raged
I thought the one thing that could cure you
Became the start of this cascade
And you said
You are the one I've been waiting for
When it's said and done
Let forever know
We're waiting at his door
It was a February evening
Intoxication held my sway
After a monumental absence
We knew the feelings hadn't changed
As the morning crept in closer
Nothing could calm the storm I raged
I took a leap that drink had shown me
I took a leap that lead to today
You are the one I've been waiting for
When it's said and done
Let forever know
We're waiting at his door
You are the one I've been waiting for
When it's said and done
Let forever know
We're waiting at his door
Now
Where do we go from here?
The future's ours for the making so
Let's give it all we know
But time is on our side though
So hold on tight and let the fear just go
And we said
You are the one I've been waiting for
When it's said and done
Let forever know
We're waiting at his door
You are the one I've been waiting for
Let forever know
We're waiting at his door
At his door
At his door
Let forever know
We're waiting at his door
