Monster 02:46
I've nothing to offer but anguish and torture, but you keep running back here Falling to your knees, you ask the question : "Why can't you just let this happen?" And no matter how hard I try, These are the hardest words to find - Don't stay with me, I'll wreck you from the inside out Don't stay with me, I'm a monster, and I'm gonna tear you down. I've tried resisting but each kiss on my skin Clouds my better judgement. But the more that you assault my senses, The more I'm aware of my weakness. And I know now that the kindest way Is to face my demons and say - Don't stay with me, I'll wreck you from the inside out Don't stay with me, I'm a monster, and I'm gonna tear you down.

Charlatan 03:01
(do it) I've grown to hate the way you breathe When you're sleeping next to me As far away as you can be Why don't you turn and face me? We've had months wasting our time While you had legions on the side If you didn't want me Why don't you just fucking tell me? Don't you owe me that at least? You had the nerve to toss me out Fucked my best friend in our own house Were you always so callous? Or are you just fucking bat-shit? I deserve better than this I deserve better than this I deserve better than this Woo!

Sing 02:27
In our unusual way The word was for us only The kings and queens for just a day... And when the sunset came And warmed us with it's embrace With every you, With every me, With everyone we would sing La, la la la, la la la, And in the morning rays We travel home with memories Of every smile, Of every drink, With all our love we would sing La, la la la la... But it's not enough We're all alone If just one song could guide us home So let's just sing, can we just sing? Maybe we'll change everything La, la la la ... But it's not enough We're all alone If just one song could guide us home So let's just sing, can we just sing? Maybe we'll change everything x 2 La...

Jack & Coke 03:54
Everyone has said that it gets better as you get older But now I'm 25 and still looking past my shoulder, this world gets colder But that my friends is what beer is for! So lock the doors, blast the tunes and I'll pour! Here is to each darkened room each 4am, each sleep 'til noon! I tip my hat, here's to you! Here is to each loyal friend each jack & coke until the end I've got your back, here's to you! I raise my glass to you! Everything is shit! and maybe we are stuck, so come on, fill your cup! 'Cuz we won't get out alive and the sun is coming up, so come on let's get fucked! So my friends let's have a drink or four! Lock the doors, blast the tunes and I'll pour! Here is to each darkened room each 4am, each sleep 'til noon! I tip my hat, here's to you! Here is to each loyal friend each jack & coke until the end I've got your back, here's to you! I raise my glass to you! Here is to each darkened room each 4am, each sleep 'til noon! I tip my hat, here's to you! Here is to each loyal friend each jack & coke until the end I've got your back, here's to you! I raise my glass to you! (Kay - "Is pepsi ok?!" Matt - "Fucksake!")

And as the sweat falls free from my head Mixing with the blood splashed back by the dead I think to myself that it's not worth it in the end Just one more step, and away I'm lead And as the wind whips against my skin Mixing with the dust that settling in I think to myself "I'm never gonna win" Just one more step, maybe I can give in? The hordes can come closer, The world can get colder, But my time on earth is far from over. And as the light gets chased down by the night I do my best to hide from the outside I think to myself "It's never gonna be alright!" Just one more step, maybe I can get by The hordes can come closer, The world can get colder, But my time on earth is far from over. x 3
