We’re all a little lost until we lose ourselves And we’re a little nervous. Until we have something to be nervous about. And we’re all a little numb. Too afraid to feel. And we’re all a little nervous. Until we have something to be nervous about. Up goes the shield. And on spins the wheel And spins goes the wheel. This is something we have to feel So up goes my shield

Shields
this storm is breaking it tears down these walls. for the first time i'm not alone for the the fall. this is desire. it's in us all. so speak out your fire. go make all your calls. i will be standing. I will not fall. I am no liar. I am just flawed. Now I can face the truth: this was your fault. I am not blaming you. I'm moving on. I just took a moment to write you this song.

i am no liar, i am just flawed
this it cannot be explained. i cannot wish it away. every return yields the same. I want to stay, but I drift further away. where I go I can't say. I wonder when I will finally get to that last day. life wasn't meant to be fighting pain.

Loneliness is easier when your alone
what a shame. to issue baseless blame while the purpose is practical, the practice is lame. even slowed down in pace: even with such flagrant displays of grace... do ends that justify means wipe the wrong from this place? I'd rather watch them dig their own graves, but to what end does this serve the broader space? **** it. **** it, no, seriously. How many years go by and the feeling remains empty? Fill it please, by all ******* means. To the one who can, gets to see the real me.

baseless
**** it. i've said it before. when the volume rises and I see the door. what the **** are you fighting for? to maintain a false understanding that you know much more? break me, please god forbid you say anymore.

break me, please.
You are what you were Your thoughts are absurd You place your faith in other words You have no worth You walk through this life Fairytales are your lies. You place your faith in other words You have no worth The light in your eyes That fear grows in size Faith is your surprise The irony is quite wise Go drink those tears that you cry. Go walk with the other blind Go walk with your kind This won’t be new You do it all the time So stay quiet

Worth
Should have I finished school? That'd be cool. Bringing me back to feeling like a fool. Standards are discarded when you show them you don't need those rules. Stand up. Be free. Life is once. You can't believe That what you think you see Is nothing more Than the pain beneath. I just wish I could breathe At least I could find the peace to finally sleep.

Should I have?
PleAse don’t pretend Lie to a child that somehow we are friends Even if I try to extend Your moving back into the future And we won’t ever be kin If that’s a game you’d like to play Take your misery I’m not afraid to walk away I didn’t make the simple mans mistake I saw a virtue in the struggle of the wait So when I don’t care to even glance in your eyes Don’t act as if it’s some ill willed surprise You had a chance just as I And just as in that sense we are alike I too can choose to exile your kind. So this is me saying with clarity You’ve exhausted all of my charity.

Troubles
Went out to pay tribute, headed out west. Seems Santa Monica is filled with LA's best. Where have we come? Where ego survives before your own son? You keep buying that **** your fed since birth Ignorance is the summation of your net worth No. I don't abide. I've seen it happen. I just watched it with my own two eyes. Sadly, I'm not surprised. Dressed up kids **** good vibes

This one is 4 Audrey
it's a loaded term. branded and historically stern. While the shadow still remains after the setting sun -- your pain will remain. This is the ORIGIN of shame. Have you not learned? how They play game? paint us out to be insane. I wasn't given a choice. I was given a name. -- that i haven't changed.
