All Mess 04:36
I’m doing time and my prison is this town Can’t wait to get out, can’t wait to burn it to the ground When my sentence is over, I’m gonna turn this place over, and leave my mark All over the place, you’ll be seeing my face Now all I want to go to is anywhere I would do anything just to get there For all the time you spend staring at the wall Cos when you think about it there’s nothing here at all I’m getting sick of walking down the same streets And driving down the same roads And working in the same job There’s gotta be something else out there Now all I want to go to is anywhere I would do anything just to get there For all the time you spend staring at the wall Cos when you think about it there’s nothing here at all

I'm sitting here It's my time now So long before Oh three hundred Gave up the ghost Everyone else did Ideas start to flow The lining round the black cloud Fades away as morning sunlight cracks Around my window Through gritted teeth Fists tightly clenched I declare false feelings of fineness A sharp pain However still tame The grinding gears It's not so severe The lining round the black cloud Fades away as morning sunlight cracks Around my window Through gritted teeth Fists tightly clenched I declare false feelings of fineness A sharp pain However still tame

Insomnia 04:25
I went to bed a little earlier last night It’s such a struggle, such a fight My body doesn’t do what I want it to do It’s like the ceiling is a contrast to my busy mind at night So plain and white, I don’t feel right This isn’t what I would call rest During the day I can relax I feel like I can go to sleep at any time But in my bed it is a different story I try to think about nothing But how can you do that when Even nothing, is still something I give up, I get up Shut my eyes only to blink It doesn’t make me feel any better I give up, I get up Shut my eyes only to blink It doesn't make me feel any better There’s so much I could do With all these extra hours Spent in my bed It’s been this way for years now And I don’t see it changing Until I’m dead It’s getting bright outside now It’s morning and I’m wide awake My eyes are so bright I’m losing track of everything I’m losing track of when it’s day And when it’s night I give up, I get up Shut my eyes only to blink It doesn’t make me feel any better I give up, I get up Shut my eyes only to blink It doesn't make me feel any better I give up, I get up Shut my eyes only to blink It doesn’t make me feel any better I give up, I get up Shut my eyes only to blink It doesn’t make me feel any better

Not everything Is as it seems They use you They pull your strings I’ll take a back seat Take a look from the outside While they control you While they take over your mind Lost in a sea of apathy Cos thinking isn’t cool these days There’s no such thing as variety What do you think it is that pays I’ll take a back seat Take a look from the outside While they control you While they take over your mind And when you dream tonight Think to yourself Is this what I want And not someone else I’ll take a back seat Take a look from the outside While they control you While they take over your mind I’ll take a back seat Take a look from the outside While they control you While they take over your
