Survival of the fittest
I've created my own distance
hoping for a better turn
because you burned these bridges
I hoped to attain
the help that you have promised
but only to find out
what we were not promised
I've slaved through my labor
with the thought in my head
Success is only gained by buying your
way in, the only way to assure you your fame
the only road that you must take
because we told you so, that's only way
Liar, you've used us for your gain
we've lost so much because we would play your game
I have nothing else to give
every penny we've spent
has been tossed to the bin
We've worked just as hard as anyone else
only to be treated as a "B-plus player"
2 years we have stayed the same
because everyone was afraid
of the mess we "might make"
Right now, it's time for a change
and that change must start with us so that
everyone can follow, and I hope for
everyone's sake that the task is done
and so that everyone can follow

I've developed a habit
of brushing off the mistakes
that you have made
(that you have made)
I don't think you understand
the effort I put into everything
(Everything)
I lost the drive, I've lost myself
because all you could think is just yourself
Selfishness should be selflessness
Because I put you before myself
I changed how I act
to expect the love I wanted to gain
but I lied to myself thinking
that everything's okay
Now I think it's safe to say
that I've gone completely insane
Expecting things would change
but you kept them the same
It isn't fair for me
but it's all fair to you
I'm done waiting half way
I just want to forget your name

Hopeless
I feel so worthless, under the surface
What is our purpose?
I am so hopeless, everyone knows it
I can't control it.
She looks through me, burning through my eyes
eating at my soul, rotting from the inside out
driven by the things I can't control
It haunts me, you taunt me, until I feel I'm still alone
reverse this, the surface just feels so hard to reach
Lost so much sleep, you kept me up all night
in an effort to find what's never been mine
everything's alright, everything will be fine
you are out sight and now I'm losing my mind
I'm hopeless

Remember 3 years ago
when you took day by day
watching time pass us by
remember how simple life use to be
I'm trapped knowing the truth
buried inside, living a lie
These are the moments I live for
why try and take them away?
Father I'm following a path
full of misconceptions
the concept of hate is confession
and misdirection
In the midst of it all
I'm having trouble trying to believe
that these places in front of me
do my eyes deceive me?
that this is a possibility
If I find in life, desires that this world cannot satisfy
then I was made for another world
Show me the light
show me what it's like
when it all comes crashing down
Why can't I be the person you're
expecting me to be
the constant struggle
mistakes and try the life I lead
just isn't for me
I'm drowning in my sleep
my knuckles have turned to white
I won't be what you want me to be
as the glass the shatter
I hear the screams that are
bleeding for me
I'M HOMEBOUND
