You Know It

Staring in the mirror and wonder, “What the Fuck?”
Try to keep it together but you know you pushed your luck.
Understanding there's no going back.
You've called it quits before, but either way this night's a wrap.
Is it truly worth the high, knowing that you'd fall?
Take a breath, breathe it in. I'm guessing that you're lost.
Day to night, back to day, better sleep this off.
Don't mind the mess, it gathers up, but you knew it all along.
This place is torn. The shadows turn to dust.
Fumes intoxicating. Revolting lack of trust.
Understanding there's no going back.
No need to stoke the flames, you've burnt this place enough.
But, is it truly worth the high, knowing that you'd fall?
Take a breath, breathe it in. I'm guessing that you're lost.
Day to night, back to day, better sleep this off.
Don't mind the mess, it gathers up, but you knew it all along.
Well, you went and fucked this one up.
It's really not that difficult.
I'm going to give you some pointers on how to get your shit together.
Grow up! I know that you're fiending.
Those aren't your friends, but you're trying to please them.
Your move! You ghost on your real crew.
It's not the first time, but we clearly see through.
Wake up! I hope that you hear me.
I'm that voice in your head, cue that sick fucking feeling.
Last call! Better get it together.
I'm sick of your shit. I know your mom raised you better.
I know you could have done better.
Just try to keep it together.
What the fuck is really going so wrong to make you think that it's alright?
I hope to hell that you figure it out before I see you in a body bag.

This slippery slope is easy to find, but how many miles will I slide?
Before I end up on my face.
I'm young, drunk and confused, but I have an idea of what to do.
This voice of reason went silent long ago.
Welcome in these shattered dreams.
Come in, take your coat of please.
It's a little cold and dark tonight.
Push aside these cluttered thoughts of mine.
Welcome in these shattered dreams.
Come in, take your coat of please.
It's a little cold and dark tonight.
Push aside these cluttered thoughts of mine.
This basement party never stops!
So converse amongst yourselves.
I'm doing just fine.
I said converse amongst yourselves.
Just trying to find my stride.
So just converse amongst yourselves.
Don't need a place to hide.
I'll just converse amongst myself.
I'm doing just fine.
Welcome in these shattered dreams.
Come in, take your coat of please.
It's a little cold and dark tonight.
Push aside these cluttered thoughts of mine.
Welcome in these shattered dreams.
Come in, take your coat of please.
It's a little cold and dark tonight.
Push aside these cluttered thoughts of mine.
This basement party never stops!
Wake my eyes to another sunny day.
I grab my board and head out on my way.
Motionless but digging my own grave.
This platform never seems to change.
Let's go!
Grab my board and head out on my way.
This platform never seems to change.

Leaning stance you better be prepared.
Reluctant cast as my words will fall.
Your validation is far from needed.
Share your thoughts, move along.
Trending voice broken on repeat.
Mull the options as they're undeclared.
Friction gained, lack of direction.
Share your throughts, move along.
For now, we'll see, I'll drink, you'll glare.
Then you make your move.
Dragging me upstairs.
Then you lock the door.
That's when shit got weird.
I was doin' her.
I was wearing heels.
This party sucks!
Let's make it crystal clear.
Pictures start to fall down, one by one.
Sort it all out once we get done.

Break Away!
It's everything you need.
It's everything you'll see, but these things just aren't right.
Take away!
The things that you perceived.
The things you just believed, but these things just aren't right.
I could never tell you why some people choose to lie.
Speak the truth, it's not that hard.
You don't even seem to try. Can't grasp the reason why.
Sell your words for what they're worth.
Break away!
The bullshit that they'd feed.
The time they steel for greed, but these things just aren't right.
Take away!
The script that they would read.
The efforts to deceive, but these things just aren't right.
I could never tell you why some people choose to lie.
Speak the truth, it's not that hard.
You don't even seem to try. Can't grasp the reason why.
Sell your words for what they're worth.
But then again. Everybody's got that friend.
Just take what you think you need to belong.
Then we'll see. If you could ever let it go.
Just try to take care as the days move on.
'Cause I don't know if I could go.
'Cause everybody's got a face they love to show.
We are alone.

Some of you might notice, but most of you won't see.
Facing this world head on is the best reality.
Knowing when to stand up and fight for what you need.
Fuck the ones who tell you what the fuck you're supposed to be.
Take control!
Break the mold!
Stand your own!
Take Control!
Break the mold!
Stand your own!
Make them the target.
Holding those accountable for the actions that they choose.
Make them pay the consequence of fucking with your truth.

Following the footsteps of lesser men above.
Throw back all the anchors. This ship has all but sunk.
Holding onto shadows. They're flying in the wind.
Try to find the ending. Never to begin.
Never repeat what you've said a thousand times before.
Take it all for granted. I will not be ignored.
This concludes the options. Exhausted from your noise.
Haunting is what follows. The peaceful will recoil.
This too shall pass with time!
Just not today!
Forced to create reason from mirrored broken space.
Be prepared to witness these shattered empty plains.
Fill the void with substance. The smoke leads you astray.
Isolate the vision. The course will show it's way.
Never repeat what you've said a thousand times before.
Take it all for granted. I will not be ignored.
This concludes the options. Exhausted from your noise.
Haunting is what follows. The peaceful will recoil.
This too shall pass with time!
Just not today!
Take it all for granted. I will not be ignored.

Haunting is what follows. The peaceful will recoil.
This too shall pass with time!
Just not today!
Just not today.
Not today.
Just not today.
Just not today!
