Worthwhile

They’re down on their knees and praying
They’re begging please send him home
They often feel no one’s listening
They often feel so alone
Should we give up?
Is he your child?
Should we keep on?
Is this worthwhile?
Should we give up?
Is he your child?
Should we keep on?
Is this worthwhile?
They’re wondering what he’s doing
They wonder where he will roam
They figured he wasn't searching
They figured the seed was sown
Should we give up?
Is he your child?
Should we keep on?
Is this worthwhile?
Should we give up?
Is he your child?
Should we keep on?
Is this worthwhile?

Mess
04:32
|

I know I'm far away
From where I should have been
Show me where I belong
And where I should begin
Something is holding me
It just won't let me be
Its grip envelops me
Won't you please break me free?
There has to be a way
Out of this mess I've made
I'm giving everything I've got
There has to be a way
Out of this mess I've made
This life is everything I'm not
Something is holding me
It just won't let me be
Its grip envelops me
Won't you please break me free?
There has to be a way
Out of this mess I've made
I'm giving everything I've got
There has to be a way
Out of this mess I've made
This life is everything I'm not

Give

We need a reinvention
We need some inspiration
We need something to happen
Before our expiration
Something’s gotta give
I can’t take much more of this
Something’s gonna blow
We can’t do this on our own
Something’s gotta give
I can’t take much more of this
Something’s gonna blow
We can’t do this on our own
I need your love and patience
Not your aggravation
Let’s raise our expectations
And have determination
Something’s gotta give
I can’t take much more of this
Something’s gonna blow
We can’t do this on our own
Something’s gotta give
I can’t take much more of this
Something’s gonna blow
We can’t do this on our own
Something’s gotta give
I can’t take much more of this
Something’s gonna blow
We can’t do this on our own
Something’s gotta give
I can’t take much more of this
Something’s gonna blow
We can’t do this on our own
Something’s gotta give
I can’t take much more of this
Something’s gonna blow
We can’t do this on our own

Quit Me
07:34
|
|||
Thought I knew what we're about
Now I'm not so sure
Times like this are why I doubt if we are secure
It's obvious we're on a brink
I've felt this way a while
I never know what I should think when I make you smile
I can tell you wanna quit me
So just go ahead and do it
You were never gonna fit me
Gotta say I always knew it
I'm tired of the arguments
I'm tired of the fights
But I admit I'm usually wrong
And you are usually right
If only we could find a way
A way to start again
Or do you think we've been okay
We really haven't been
I can tell you wanna quit me
So just go ahead and do it
You were never gonna fit me
Gotta say I always knew it
Nothing is for sure
Nothing is for certain
Nothing is for sure
Nothing is for certain
Nothing is for sure
Nothing is for certain
Nothing is for sure
Nothing is for certain
I can tell you wanna quit me
So just go ahead and do it
You were never gonna fit me
Gotta say I always knew it
I can tell you wanna quit me
So just go ahead and do it
You were never gonna fit me
Gotta say I always knew it
I do love you
But it's up to you, too

Against Me
06:01
|
|||
I am functioning on empty
I have little left to lose
This dysfunction has consumed me
Where has my lust for life run off to?
Time refused to stop its ticking
Even though I was not ready
While it used to be forgiving
Now it's shown to be against me
My conclusion is unfolding
There is nothing I can do
This confusion is engulfing
Where has that lust for life run off to?
Time refused to stop its ticking
Even though I was not ready
While it used to be forgiving
Now it's shown to be against me
Now it's shown to be against me
Now it's shown to be against me
Now it's shown to be against me
Now it's shown to be against me

Breaking Down
04:36

Mother
Why is it worth it?
I won’t ever be perfect
I’d been tired of faking
Help me
I think I’m breaking
Down
Down
Down
I think I’m breaking down
Father
Why all the worry?
You don’t need to be sorry
I know your heart is aching
Let go
I think I’m breaking
Down
Down
Down
I think I’m breaking down

Enemy
05:31
|

Guess it's goodbye
It was fun while it lasted
No that's a lie
It was quite a disaster
You didn't try
You just wasted the last year
Of both of our lives
I'm just glad that we're done here
But you weren't supposed to be an enemy
No, you were supposed to be a friend to me
But you weren't supposed to be an enemy
Oh no, you were supposed to be a friend to me
I'm sorry I lied
It was just to protect me
I wish that I tried to not let it affect me
See I'm a good guy
But you lost my respect when
I couldn't deny
What you seemed to neglect then
But you weren't supposed to be an enemy
No, you were supposed to be a friend to me
But you weren't supposed to be an enemy
Oh no, you were supposed to be a friend to me
This might've worked out
But you gave it up
You're right to back out
'Cause our time is up
But you weren't supposed to be an enemy
No, you were supposed to be a friend to me
But you weren't supposed to be an enemy
Oh no, you were supposed to be a friend to me
But you weren't supposed to be an enemy
No, you were supposed to be a friend to me
But you weren't supposed to be an enemy
Oh no, you were supposed to be a friend to me

Control
06:08
|
|||
Do I do everything I could do
Do I do everything I should do
About the problems that persevere
I'm losing more of myself each year
They take control
They take your soul
They take control
They take your soul
Do I know everything I could know
Do I know everything I should know
About the reasons for why things are
I never thought that I'd get this far
They take control
They take your soul
They take control
They take your soul

Prayers
03:56
|

I fell right into this again
There must be something wrong with me
I’ve been here many times before
And maybe many more to be
Am I doing something wrong?
Or is this where I’m supposed to be?
Will I ever get it right?
Is it even up to me?
Why was I saying prayers
To a god who won’t care?
Why was I saying prayers
To a god who’s not there?
I’m losing certainty again
I’m almost ready to concede
The little voice inside my head
Is ready to take over me
I cannot manage a defense
Surrender would be a relief
But something greater than myself
Is telling me I can’t believe
Why was I saying prayers
To a god who won’t care?
Why was I saying prayers
To a god who’s not there?
