An Anchor's Ship 04:20
lyrics
buy track
something is changing inside this self-obtained heart of gold. starting to doubt and repent, so wipe the tears and regret. something has taken me. slowly, it's changing me, all that i've ever known is waiting for me. so give me the answers. so give me what i need so i will never feel low again. so give it to me. if i won't dare think twice to sell myself short...my only goal is to put myself first. so give it to me now, something that i've never felt or seen. before it's over before it started. over and over, i never amounted to anything, sorting reasons to remind myself of better days. forcing me to perform under pressure. giving everything that has ever fallen on to me because i'm willing to reap what i sow for the better. nothing is ever what it seems. i feel it change me, it gives me what i need so i will never be the same again.

I’ve dug a hell of a grave one to fit all this disease I see the tears in my mother’s eyes I’d given up on myself, and put my faith into you in hopes that very decision would bring me somewhere new I’ve been killing myself for your entertainment I’ve been killing myself to bring me back to life I’ve been running in the dark covering my eyes killing myself for your entertainment I’m afraid I’m afraid of what I’ve become Sinking into a lucid coma I’ve dug a hell of a grave one to fit all this disease I see the tears in my mother’s eyes I’d given up on myself, and put my faith into you in hopes that very decision would bring me somewhere new I look into my future What I’ve become just might kill me I’m scared it might kill me I’m afraid I’m afraid of what I’ve become I’m losing my sense of self I’m losing my sense of self Killing myself for all of you to see killing myself for your entertainment killing myself for your entertainment nothing ever mattered if I died because I’ve created a reality where everyone’s a part of me but only if you believe, well otherwise, you’ll have to see… I’m afraid I’m afraid of what I’ve become Sinking into a lucid coma I don’t care I don’t care if it kills me This is something so much bigger than just me I’ve created a world where everyone’s a part of me Control was never lost, I spent too much time searching for my home When there’s a perfectly good one in front of me that I’ve created

Carry Me Through 03:42
lyrics

I have placed all of my faith into the hands of someone else (someone else) I don’t want to bleed this dry place the guilt over my head There’s a part of me that has died that you are still keeping under your covers You saw me lifeless there was nothing that could be done With nowhere to go, carry me through to the other side Carry me to the other side I have lost my way With broken wings, I fall to the surface Only so I’ll fall down that hole again I don’t know if I deserve this Now you know that I am hollow inside Now you know I’ve been stuck here in my lowest of lows Now I’m contemplating things that I would never have known Bring me to the other side I hold my hand out to you in desperation I found closure in the separation I have found all of this distance could bring us closer together You could say that I’m going through my darkest of days, I know Carry me to the other side I have lost my way With broken wings, I fall to the surface Only so I’ll fall down that hole again I don’t know if I deserve this Now you know that I am hollow inside I never knew what this distance could bring Carry me through to the other side of the world The World Carry me through to the other side, other side I don’t really want to wait for the tides to turn Show me a place where I can rest my head Carry me through, Carry me through

Shark Song 03:37
lyrics

Open my eyes, this world is weighing itself down day by day Will we ever see the sun. Show me a world with the greatest intentions Because all I see here is a broken time with pointless inventions I know, it takes time to build yourself and the roads you take and the mistakes you make all build a better you Something's telling me to stay I wouldn't have it any other way You might see me again some day I'll be different then I will learn on my own I will be better off I will be better These eyes have seen better days But they'll see worse and I will be prepared I've been running in circles and it's destroying me Prepare yourself for when demons come and play Out come the wolves and here come the sharks Stand your ground This is a test, this is the first obstacle I will learn on my own

Composure 03:25
lyrics

Friendly faces in familiar places share the warmest embraces Head it’s all sung in phrases I’ve (been) handed a shoulder to wear a smile on my heart (smile on my heart) Frozen in time, we no longer share the same air We tread the same terrain with easy hearts Never to meet in the middle There’s no safety at all I’ve been living… I’ve been living A hollow shell Connected to what surrounds this feeling I’ve come as far as I can go Unable to see the light I am trying not to let you in How do I take it seriously? What the world wouldn’t do for me Let go of the darkness That is what they all will say But how do you fix what’s never complete? Because I’ve been thinking of all my mistakes As if it will do anything at all I’ve (been) handed a shoulder to wear a smile on my heart (smile on my heart) Frozen in time, we no longer share the same air We tread the same terrain with easy hearts Never to meet in the middle There’s no safety at all Friendly faces in familiar places share the warmest embraces Head it’s all sung in phrases I’ve been living A hollow shell Connected to what surrounds this feeling I’ve come as far as I can go Unable to see the light I am trying not to let you in How do I take it seriously? What the world wouldn’t do for me (the day you left, was the day I lost everything) Let go of the darkness That is what they all will say But how do you fix what’s never complete? (listen to me) Because I’ve been thinking of all my mistakes Friendly Faces

A Devil, A Friend Every time I see your face, I want to fucking watch you suffer I will bleed you fucking dry for you’ve done to her Hate doesn’t do justice to what I feel for you Mark my fucking words, I’ll do what ever I can do to ruin you Every night i’m facing the same guilt and anger within keeping you close enough to reap my opportunities you will hold out your hand for mercy just watch and see I’ve stolen your hollow crown and what you left behind for me The way you look at me, What evil changes, just a “price to pay” I am at a loss for words for what I could possibly say the worst parts of you, the best parts of me I’ll erase you publicly deface you, what a fucking disgrace you are You lied right to my fucking face you are the worst piece of shit that I ever have graced I’ll make damn well sure that you burn in hell if they don’t choke you to death, I’ll fucking do it myself She’s been to hell and back, fighting away the hands of death because of you before you hesitate, no one has deceived you you can try and prepare yourself, no one will believe you I will be waiting for your darkest hour I recognise a snake when I see one I’m not blind to what you’ve done because I don’t trust a word you say
You’ll always be waiting for their weakest moment I just can’t wait I just can’t wait for your darkest of hours it’s true, I’ll your “higher” words way down to the ground I could watch you die I broke his jaw that crooked smile I’ll make you suffer for the girl you’ve defiled your dirty tongue, your dirty fucking tongue I will rip it from your face Every time I see your face, I want to fucking watch you suffer I will bleed you fucking dry for you’ve done to her Hate doesn’t do justice to what I feel for you Mark my fucking words, I’ll do what ever I can do to ruin you Every night i’m facing the same guilt and anger within keeping you close enough to reap my opportunities you will hold out your hand for mercy just watch and see I’ve stolen your hollow crown and what you left behind for me I recognise a snake when I see one I’m not blind to what you’ve done because I don’t trust a word you say
You’ll always be waiting for their weakest moment I could watch you die (I wish you would)

One Foot In The Grey 04:20
lyrics
buy track
Please save me, I'm half living Teach me the ways of the world Losing sight of what's important, I turn the other cheek When faced with my prize possession I freak out, cut and run, never amount to anyone Why I feel the need to make everything complicated Crossing rivers and oceans, the best sight of the world in your eyes When my days are numbered, I give myself a second chance Take a step back to give you the world that promise I can keep I never knew what I had 'till it's gone, I've taken you for granted You'll never know what you had 'till it's gone Never again This heart is beating, one foot in the grey

Life Amongst The Trees [bonus track] 02:48
lyrics
buy track
Facing fears is never a walk in the part when your one and only light forces you blind in the dark Hatred can control your life and the ones around you but even the devil himself can be overthrown Fathoms of hate is all I feel Refusing to believe that all of this is real Suffocate me if you think that you can How can you make a god from only a man? Wash away the blood, sweat and tears How can hope be found without all your fears It’s about time I deserve a heaven when Hell is all I see Wash it away, wash it away I feel so out of place When the fog clears and parts, I only see the dark Years and Years of waiting and this is the thanks I get I’m sick of falling for the devil, I curse the day we met Five years and barely standing strong Was I right to keep trying or was I in the wrong? Life amongst the trees has made me blind to beautiful things Five years and barely standing strong Was I right to keep trying or was I in the wrong? Life amongst the trees has made me blind to beautiful things I feel so possessed The question is Will I make it out alive? Make it out alive

To Whom In May Concern [bonus track] 03:59
lyrics

To Whom It May Concern Your mindset I need to convert The joy you find in bleeding others dry is pointless This hollow man didn’t use to be lifeless I’ll ask once and demand an answer The false hope flowing through his veins brings a vicious cancer He’s talking of suicide and he can’t go back I’m begging you, I just want my brother back Give him back to me You don’t even need the tools you use But I will not step down I refuse The Man stood before me used to be so content So full of life, now so lifeless Make a decision that’s set in stone these mixed signals won’t bring him home release him into the world false expectations of a life made of gold I’m staring into the eyes of the deadpan You’ve ruined him, now he is a walking dead man Now you’ve ruined him, now he is a walking dead man To Whom It May Concern Your mindset I need to convert The joy you find in bleeding others dry is pointless This hollow man didn’t use to be lifeless I’ll ask once and demand an answer The false hope flowing through his veins brings a vicious cancer He’s talking of suicide and he can’t go back I’m begging you, I just want my brother back Make a decision that’s set in stone these mixed signals won’t bring him home release him into the world false expectations of a life made of gold Make a decision that’s set in stone these mixed signals won’t bring him home release him into the world Release him into the world Make a decision that’s set in stone these mixed signals won’t bring him home Look around you, we are all here At some point, life should be more clear

So lost with no sense of direction I only walk deeper into the dark The river guides me as I pace by myself at night Well, seeing as you know me so well You could be the one to offer your help You'll watch me descend into the further My last vision will be you watching me suffer My head is a wasteland, no clarity Make me blind so I can't see all the horrible things that life can be Take my hand and you will see the loneliest soul that walks these streets as you watch me descend as you watch me descend I don't blame you for leaving me behind to my own devices I have become an entity that is out of hand pure evil in a nutshell (we all float down here) pure evil in human form (we all float down here) I can only hate you the love i feel has mutated something is wrong with me end this pain I don't blame you for leaving me behind to my own devices I have become an entity that is out of hand pure evil in a nutshell (we all float down here) pure evil in human form (we all float down here) I don't blame you for leaving me I don't blame you for leaving me behind I can only hate you
