Can't get you out of my head
But you're out of my hands now
You're always around
And I'm stuck in a crowded house
Don't walk away x3
Well I can't stop thinking all about
How you look and how you talk and how you sound
Don't want to remember anyhow
Just walk away, I'll play you out
Chorus:
You had me shaking like pistons(Don't Walk Away!)
Motor's locked and listen, I don't wanna drive anymore(Don't Walk Away!)
Summer dreams never last, you'll be a ghost in my past(Don't Walk Away!)
Won't be leaving on the gaslight anymore (Don't Walk Away!)
Ooo ooh ooh oo oo Oooh oo
Oh wow you're so smart
You know it's all you ever talk about
Well shut your existential mouth
You might learn to love something
Chorus
Are you thinking about me?
How you messed things up
And what we could be
I would have never given up
Chorus
Just burn the house to the ground
Turn all the lights out
There's no saving this anyhow
Just Walk Away

Yesterday I cried my eyes out in the parking lot of Chick-Fil-A
I'm not sure why but I guess my chemistry is off
And my body's telling me to figure out what's wrong
So I pay attention to the songs
That I've been listening to in the car
They sing a lot about loss and finding yourself and
Remembering to care for your health
Maybe I've been down too long
To know what up feels like
Unless it overcomes my mind
I think I'm stuck on overdrive
There's a weakness in my spine
That I can't shake
No I can't stand up for myself
But for anyone else I'll break (I'll break)
And everyone says I don't need another lover
Have to be by myself to recover
Stop running to every pair of
Hands that will run through my hair
Maybe I've been down too long
To know what up feels like
Unless it overcomes my mind
I think I'm stuck on overdrive
Give me something to hold onto
Cause I've been wasting away
On Saturdays, These Sadder Days
I'm gonna remember to eat today
I'm gonna drink enough water that I don't shake
Try to fall asleep before 8 in the morning
Or maybe I'll just watch the office all night
Til the world creeps away from my mind
Or maybe I'll just watch the office all night
Til the world creeps away from my mind
Maybe I've been down too long
To know what up feels like
Unless it overcomes my mind
I think I'm stuck on overdrive
Give me something to hold onto
Cause I've been wasting away
On Saturdays, These Sadder Days

Scream at the top of my lungs
There's a fire in my chest
And it's been burning all day long
Pouring buckets on top
But I still feel like I'm gonna drop
My breaths won't make it stop, won't make it stop
Chorus:
Ask me another question
Cause I've got a storm in my mind
Weigh me down with some of your burdens
I'm getting anxious about the concept of time (Time!)
Wasting my time (Time!) Oh all this time (Time!
I've been wasting my time (Time!)
So I stay focused on the ones I love
Cause they're the fire in my chest
They help me to stay above
The closet full of demons
Screaming I can't be believed in
But I won't be the victim, No I won't be
Chorus
When will the daybreak come
This is the longest night and I
Can't seem to keep warm
Or stop reflecting on my entire life
Chorus

Tunnel Vision

Spend so much time in your head
You can't unwind the knots with your hands
You try and you try but every time
You just end up back in bed
Well I'm wondering
Would it hurt you to walk for once
Accept sometimes you just have to give up
Well some problems can't be worked out on paper
And sometimes you have to save it for later
Save it for later
There's a solution you can feel it in your bones
If things would just slow down then you might just know
How to get back up from the ground
Where you've fallen down
And stumbled around
Another day, another strategy
To cope with your brand of insanity
Will you count to ten today
Or try to take deep breaths 'til the black edge fades
Another day
(repeats but heavier)
Would it hurt you to walk for once
Accept sometimes you just have to give up
Some problems can't be worked out on paper
Sometimes you have to save it for later
Got eyes like a tunnel, eyes like a tunnel
Can't see the world around
With eyes like a tunnel, eyes like a tunnel
Can't take the easy way out
(repeats)

No Ghost

Felt like a blow to the chest, cigarette between my lips pressed
Such heavy weight can't be held with all this pain
And it felt like the light had left my sky
Had this shaking laugh and an unstable mind
Well I should have known that shadows would lead me to light
Then the strength in your chest had me aching with questions
Two people convincing each other to listen
I'll calm your storms if you help me to stand my ground
What's left to be afraid of?
We've been broken and found what we're made of
I love the way you laugh when I'm clumsy
I hope you never grow tired of thinking of me
Let me hold your hand
Cause I am safe when I'm with you
Even when you're afraid too
And if you cannot stand
I will hold you up 'til you're calm
And then we'll both be twice as strong
What's left to be afraid of?
We've been broken and found what we're made of
I love the way you laugh when I'm clumsy
I hope you never grow tired of thinking of me
