The phrase "it's a slippery slope", I'm told,
Is nothing more than fallacy
But why is it when I let myself go,
My senses don't come back to me
Complacency
It's an act that happens so rapidly, oh no
No one is free
From the throes of taking it easy
Oh, woah
I can't believe how hard I've fallen
To think, woah
That I used to be at the top
I built this tower with diligence
But the fall happened so naturally
And the path of least resistance
Is trudged on by the guilty
Health, wealth, good deeds and morals
Are at the top of my list
But when I just take a measly break
All my hard work ceases to exist
Complacency
Funny how it happens so rapidly, oh no
No one is free
From the throes of taking it easy
Oh, woah
I can't believe how hard I've fallen
To think, woah
That I used to be at the top
I built this tower with diligence
But the fall happened so naturally
And the path of least resistance
Is trudged on by the guilty
This isn't me
I was used to climbing the mountains
Not fearing the molehills
(x2)
This isn't me
I was used to climbing the mountains
Now I fear the molehills
Oh, woah
I can't believe how hard I've fallen
To think, woah
That I used to be at the top
I built this tower with diligence
But the fall happened so naturally
And the path of least resistance
Is trudged on by the guilty
Oh, woah
I can't believe how hard I've fallen
To think, woah
That I used to be at the top
I built this tower with diligence
But the fall happened so naturally
And the path of least resistance
Has made me feel so guilty

Undisprovable, the eeriest concepts
You can’t deny
They break your mind, and so
Seeds of doubt remain forever planted
It’s by design
I see the signs, always
I don’t trust a soul
This fate I have sealed
Since I’ll never know
If they’re even real
(Chorus)
Every trick of the light
Throws me into the darkness
When I fall asleep
I’m scared of my dreams
Were they real?
Even with all of my might,
I can’t shake off these feelings
This vile disease
Makes a coward of me
I’m not sane
Can a fish’s eyes ever deceive him?
He’d never know
He couldn’t go risk it
He can’t trust a soul
Lest he’d turn to bones
(Chorus)
Paranoid
It’s obsessive
Some questions
Can’t be answered
How could I
Stand a chance, oh
Am I alone?
(Chorus)
Was it a trick of the light?

STOP!!! feat. Ruby

Power flowing through my body
Coursing through my veins like it's a drug
Electrons from a plug
My muscles being tugged outward
Supersonic, speeding through the
Little things I never could have done
It's faster than a run
A mental megaton, like nothing
"I wish things could be like this
perpetually," I whisper aloud
My body is a cloud
I've never been so proud of me
Not sure if it's mania,
my diagnoses never have been clear
But I won't interfere
Lest it would disappear, momentum
Immoveable object
Please, don't let me stop
Losing steam, I feel I'm crashing
I hope I can understand my pain
A plague upon my brain
It's trying to contain my spirit
Weight is pressed upon my shoulders
Creeping from my crown down to my toes
And only heaven knows
If this will be imposed forever
Feeling like a nuissance
Wish I wouldn't stop
Give me back the time my mind has wasted
Lying, sprawled out, crying in my cell
And the clock strikes 4, my soul is fading
Stewing in my unproductive hell
"Get used to it, this is chronic.
Do your medications work at all?"
A vilifying call
It's making me feel small and helpless
Knowing how you think of me,
I'm shocked you haven't blamed all the caffeine
I'm sorry I'm so mean
But you know what I mean, don't you?
Call it mid-day sadness
I wish this would stop
Is this really what my life has come to?
Wake up, eat, sigh, sleep, rinse and repeat
Though I'm always sad, I have it easy
I apologize, I'm incomplete
Start Stop Start Stop Start Stop Start Stop
Start Stop Start Stop Start Stop Start Stop
Give me back the time my mind has wasted
Lying, sprawled out, crying in my cell
And the clock strikes 4, my soul is fading
Stewing in my unproductive hell
Is this all I will ever amount to?
Hoping that this path of mine will change
Even optimists have our limits
I'll trudge on, my life I'll rearrange
Start Stop Start Stop Start Stop Start Stop

Sweet bright-eyed child you will learn
Every life meets its end at the urn
Terrified you'll turn to the things you'd never believed
Hoping God gives you mercy
For the things I've said
And the things I've done
And the demons I gave in to
And now that I believe
I will live forever
Can one be born without a soul?
Is there a chance I can't be whole?
Does God know my mind betrays me?
Praying has become so scary
This eternal life
Leaving me behind
All the ones I love
Wonder where I've gone
Could this be my fate?
Or that I have strayed?
And have I been
Doomed from the start?
Could this be my fate?
And have I been
Doomed from the start?

14 feat. Oliver

Small world of my past
I've grown quite a bit since I've seen you last
I haven't been around
I'm always in some different part of town, but
Every now and then I miss the days when
Everything I needed was nearby
Although I had taken it for granted
I look back on those times with a smile
Oh, take me back to when
I'd mess around in class with all my friends
Oh, I'd love to read again
And draw all my art with a ballpoint pen
Though I don't want to be here forever
We all need to grow up's what I mean
But I periodically remember
How much I loved being 14
