Here in America we're all the same person Forged from the same mold then thrown in a prison And expected to abide by the rules set in place By a lying government full of corrupt politicians Constantly at war in a two party system Finding new things to fight about every thirty seconds Throw someone new in office every forty-five minutes After three or so times you'll realize that there's no difference So called land of equality More like injustice and bigotry (Untied states of hypocrisy) One nation under civil war and social segregation (One big dysfunctional family) Divided by the red and blue lines of our society

Emotional compression And damn near obsession What to say to you? And where would I even start to Explain my thoughts Cause I’m so stressed Heart beats so fast it burns my chest Anxiety is flying through my head While I lie awake in bed Thinking about words I left unsaid Because I can’t read your mind Now I’m watching the time And I’m falling heels over head for you And I’m not sure if you want me to Everyone tells me I’m insane and frankly I think I feel the same But I’m falling down for you Watching you pass by I try to hide my eyes You glance over my way I feel my hands start to shake Self-conscious and nervous My heart’s back in service But my common sense is Nowhere to be found Looking down at the ground I’m dragging my feet now Cause I can’t keep my fucking mind off of you I’m so burned out on these games of decoding I want to be the one you wake up holding But you’re probably out with him And I’m sitting here alone Wishing I was someone you wanted to know That you wanted to know heels over head for you And I’m not sure if you want me to Everyone tells me I’m insane and frankly I think I feel the same But I’m falling down for you

Hollow 02:53
Well my time’s running out now and so is my hope I got no money no friends and nowhere to go Passed out late on the floor last night drinking alone Held down the next morning by a heart made of stone Singing hey, hey I’m feeling hollow I’m broken down, tired, and drowning in sorrow With a stomach full of pills and a glass full of gin Hoping this will be the last time I feel so thin Well I wrote you a song that you’ll never hear Just another wasted hour spent fighting back tears You don’t want me to sing and don’t want me to stay That’s fine it never was that fun anyway Singing hey, hey I’m feeling hollow I’m broken down, tired, and drowning in sorrow With a stomach full of pills and a glass full of gin Hoping this will be the last time I feel so thin You're the last pretty thing in a world of bad dreams And I’m just another sad face you have to see In the background of your life on a blurry TV screen An uncredited role in your love story Singing hey, hey I’m feeling hollow I’m broken down, tired, and drowning in sorrow With a stomach full of pills and a glass full of gin Hoping this will be the last time I feel so thin Singing hey, hey I’m feeling hollow I’m broken down, tired, and drowning in sorrow With a stomach full of pills and a glass full of gin Hoping this will be the last time I feel so thin

Possessed 02:43
You have a certain way of getting in my head Keeping me up all night and making me feel sick Reaching out for your hand I know it’s not there But typically at this time of night I don't care ‘cause I’m shit faced drunk and screaming again At the top of my lungs face down on the bed And I can’t breathe, can’t fuckin’ resist These thoughts of you I feel possessed Every time that I see you do you see me? Cause just like everyone else you’re impossible to read I wish I was much more to you, something that you need But in truth I doubt you wanna hear this from me ‘cause I’m shit faced drunk and screaming again At the top of my lungs face down on the bed And I can’t breathe, can’t fuckin’ resist These thoughts of you I feel possessed Face down on the desk I saw you crying, lying, flying away from me Wishing I could say something but again I doubt you’d wanna hear me speak I’m a creep, I’m a freak, I’m the one you avoid And I suffer in silence cause I’m so paranoid Of the things you’d say If you only knew How I can’t get my mind off of you ‘cause I’m shit faced drunk and screaming again At the top of my lungs face down on the bed And I can’t breathe, can’t fuckin’ resist These thoughts of you I feel possessed I’m shit faced drunk and screaming again What the fuck did I do to deserve this? Hands on my face I’m a fucking mess I can’t remember the last time I’ve been so upset
