Danger! (Exaggeration)

Don't stray
Stay inside
There's too much shit in the air to breathe
Stay inside
Away from the UV rays
They cripple your skin
Don't drink the water
Poison to your veins
Don't eat the food
Early coffin
Don't think for yourself
I know best
Listen to me
I don't know you
Listen to me
I know best
Don't choose for yourself
Who knows what could happen
If you had freedom?
Who knows what could happen
If you lived a life
Live this lie
It's better
I know
It's the best
I don't know you
Listen to me

Apology

It breaks my heart
(To know)
She wouldn't care
(No)
She'd never know
(I'm gone)

If I were to die today
What would my
Last words be?
(An apology)

I'm sorry
(To have never met you)
I'm sorry
(To have never loved you)
I'm sorry
(To have never held you)
I'm sorry
(Sorry)

If I could still write
I'd write to her
(My one)
My only
Somewhere
(Somewhere)
Out there

I hope she's not waiting
I hope she's still breathing

But maybe it's better
(This way)
To have never loved
To have never lost
(Maybe it's better)
If we don't know
Each other's faces
(Faces)
We can keep
Dreaming

If I were to die
(Today)
My last words
Would be

I'm sorry
(To have never met you)
I'm sorry
(To have never loved you)
I'm sorry
(To have never held you)
I'm sorry
(Sorry)

From my heart
To hers
(Find a way)
To touch her
To tell her

I'm sorry
To have never
(Known you)

Promise

Can you promise me?
(Everything will be all right)
(Everything will be all right)
Don't lie to me
(Lie to me)
Don't lie to me
(Lie to me)
Can you promise me?
(Everything will be all right)
Everything will be all right

Would you know if I told you?
The pain...

Main Street


Main Street
A perfect picture
(Of beauty)
Main Street
Where everyone
(Gets along)
Main Street
Where peace and
(Harmony exist)
Main Street
What a lie
(We buy)

[(Give me the Main Street)]
With graffiti on the walls
[(Give me the Main Street)]
With broken, bloody sidewalks
[(Give me the Main Street)]
Where strangers sell the sins
[(Give me the Main Street)]
That's swallowed by the night

[There's no such thing]
As perfect harmony
[We only want]
What looks like the best
[The lies we buy]
The lies we swallow

(Our)
Bright
(Neon)
Lights

Can't
Shine
(For)
E
[Ver]

A false memory
[We won't (remember)]

[(Give me the Main Street)]
With graffiti on the walls
[(Give me the Main Street)]
With broken, bloody sidewalks
[(Give me the Main Street)]
Where strangers sell the sins
[(Give me the Main Street)]
That's swallowed by the night

We want to believe
We'd like to think
Everything
(Is alright)
Everything
(Will be okay)

(Our hearts are broken)
(Our dreams are shattered)

Don't lie to me!
Don't tell me
[Everything]
Will be alright!
[We're, not, okay!]

And this is
(Reality)
Where we
[Hate to live]
[On, Main, Street]
It's only a dream

(Give me something real)

Depression is Set on Repeat

It's easy to get depressed
When there's no one
To hold
To talk to
It's so easy to get depressed
When the night is so cold
When you're so alone
I'm calling out
And not even hearing
My own echo
The night swallows it whole
The night swallows me whole
It's the easiest thing
To be depressed
When your dreams are shattered
There's no hope for repair
When your heart's a mess
It's broken
Lost
Confused
Yet still hoping
It's easy to get depressed
When you feel empty inside
When you've lost all meaning
When the words you write
Stop making sense
The ink spills in circles again
It's so easy to get depressed
When you keep dreaming of her
The one you can't have
It's the easiest thing
To get depressed
Your day goes dark
Over the smallest thing
That brings back the haunting memory
Of everything you've lost
Of everything you ever dreamed for
Hope is crippling
Holding out for something to happen
Holding out for eternity
It's only hope
It's nothing
It's the easiest thing
To get depressed
