Gravity 03:22
The fear of leaving stops me dead in my tracks My search for meaning puts a weight on my back Let's turn the page to find the thing that I lack Turns out I'm nothing but a framed train-wreck Find my composure just to lose it again My fragile frame just getting tossed to the side Always asking to tell me when My choice was made when you didn't care that my dream died Tracing the pavement where I use to lie The rooftop I came from piercing the sky I'm sorry you have to see me this way It's my fault for my chances that day Calm back down , take a step back now We're on the edge of who knows where or how Forever feeling like falling down Gravity don't fail me now

Turn the lights off I never wanna see this place again Just let me know and I'll jump when you say when I'm on the sidewalk Of the place that I grew up in but never left I'm just stuck living in the same old mess Take me , take me now I'm just begging, begging to let go But the more I think about it , the stronger my grip gets Break me, break me down I'll never get out , just get out of my head. What if I could Put in the effort to fix the mess I'm in Pacing myself Trying to maintain the only thing I know The sinking feeling in my chest won't go I'm never getting through this These thoughts are ever constant Was it something I missed It's now a foreign concept Still scarred with my past problems My thoughts are ruined daily Too bad I still can't stop them You ruin my life daily
3.
Break my mind into a thousand pieces Make me numb until the madness ceases Tear out the floorboards, break out the matches Burn this place down and bury the hatchet This place was never my home, don't make me stay its getting harder to be on my own. Take this road you thought you'd never walk on On my own is how I'll keep on walking You only made matters worse, You made me feel like the worst What's a family to you What's a family at all You'd think it's something we all want to have The closeness and warmth of a good healthy home You never cared at all Watched me take the fall While thinking you were right all along The creaks in these old floors Sound like crashing airplanes The room starts to shake and my hands are like earthquakes And I don't sleep anymore There's a constant war outside my bedroom door The sounds they haunt me Dragging me back, To the place where I thought we Could just get along, to the place where you think I belong. You always said I was wrong, Why can't we just get along.
