I ain't sleepin, I been wanderin'
I ain't smilin', I've just been lyin'
The ceiling calls while I lie in bed
Tells me to search through time
For all I've seen and all I've said
I can see your hair
And see those eyes
I can feel your love
With your hand in mine
As I reflect, take it all in
I'm torn away and alone again
The shutter closes
All else is blurred in frame
When did I begin to feel so far away from everything
So close to me?
I can't remember
Please remember

Bore it out, bore it out
The fear breeds lies, the lies breed doubt
Broken record, a frantic sequence
Questioning character at every expense
No explanation, no understanding
At the end of this, don't know if I'll be standing
Will there be anything left?
It may be best to bring on death
I would rather kill myself.
Than live a life afraid like this
Afraid for those I love
Afraid of things that don't make sense
Afraid I'll live in emptiness
Afraid for all the innocents
Afraid of things that don't exist
Self-identified existential crisis
Attempt to topple this Goliath
A recent obsession
Of all I am not
Bore it out
Or be still my heart
Stumbling across the sand
Course against my feet
Reminding every step I take
Is unfulfilled and empty
Another bottle down
I've lost count
But I am numb to nothing
There is only pain now
Light another up
I've lost count
Doesn't matter anymore
I'm torn apart from inside out
Wander into the sea
Resisting the urge
To let the tide take me out
Cause I know how it feels to drown

Tears of sorrow
Pour from my eyes
Too late and now I see
My dreams had come to life
Now, every day
Is a waking nightmare
No escape from myself
No escape from my despair
Caved in, broke down
Plagued by the sickness of doubt
The tides of the world, drag me below
Pressures, ceaseless
Crushing, ceaseless
These shoulder bear the weight
Twisting, contorting
I will never be the same
So much of me has changed
I won't hide from the pain
Never again, shy away
This is all on me.

Pass Me By

Look closely at this worn out face
Tell me what you see
November air is cold and biting
Leaving skin to crack and bleed
Withering where it can't be seen
I am ashamed
A disgrace in the family tree
Outcast within myself
Ripped away, replaced by someone else
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Pass me by, this is not a life
A manifestation of fear and doubt
Left trapped and barred in this prison cell
Going through the motions
A labyrinth of trap doors
One choice, pick your poison
Now the long dark of Night arrives
And I am compelled to greet her, entertain her
My eyes grow weary, yet she keeps me awake
I give in to Her temptation, I keep her company
The demons of old are knocking now
In search of sanctuary
Bar the doors, hope they pass me by
Please pass me by, this is not a life
Helpless, senseless, left alone

This house feels emptier
Since you left your home
I hope you've found greener pastures
Wherever you roam
It was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do
To leave that room and say goodbye to you
Wracked with guilt and selfishness
I yearn for you, yet now you rest
You were so loved, it will never end
All you taught me, I won't forget
Failures, time lost, I can not atone
You deserved more than I did provide
Wisdom with age has cursed me
Petty fixes left me blind
Through thick and thin, you never left your brother
The void that you left behind will never be filled by another
You are loved

These tapes haven't been played in some time
And this camera's hardly working, worn out with use and age.
Oh, but the things it has seen
So many of those moments came to define, a part of me
And lately, I've caught myself years for a way back
Cause with every day that passes me by
I feel a step further away
I feel myself inching away from all these memories
And inches closer to heaven
Defined by that which I lack
With each of those who pass away
My grasp on the connection to this place, slips a little more
Between these narrow fingers
I'll be the first to admit I'm scared
With every smile and laugh that flashes on the television
There's an explosion of joy and sadness
Knowing I've got to live that love
And knowing its nearing its end
And now I'm
Knowing its nearing its end
Its so damn hard to accept, I know I don't want to
I'm not ready, but I don't think anyone ever is
Is this what it means to grow up?
Cause if it does
I don't want any part of it.

Please Remember Frederick, Maryland
Born out of long nights alone with nothing but a restless mind and an acoustic guitar. A culmination of anxiety, sadness, fear, longing, and regret.
