LYRICS
Pieces
V1:
It’s getting really hard to breathe
But I keep an “I don’t give a crap” mentality
Gotta say something?
Don’t hold back, just give it all to me
(Keep your lies in your pockets, spill ‘em, they’ll block it)
Introspection
curiosity
What takes over in our minds is just a fallacy
There’s no need to come and give me an apology
Cause not one of them will ever mean a thing to me
PC:
I don’t care what you think of me
The less you give a damn, the better life would be
C:
Say it to my face and disrespect my name
I might be causing you some pleasure, but I feel no pain
And you can take it all from me
You won’t bring no peace
Cause pieces are what’s left of me
Pieces are what’s left of me
V2:
Figures pass by
I sit on the edge
It’s hard to really tell what goes on in my head
I lay in the dark
Try to stay awake
But my fears haunt me down at the start of my day
I say, just don’t show
But I can feel it in my bones, yeah
Sit down for a while
I breathe in and out
The devil on my shoulder won’t care if I shout.
PC:
I don’t care what you think of me
The less you give a damn, the better life would be
C:
Say it to my face and disrespect my name
I might be causing you some pleasure, but I feel no pain
And you can take it all from me
You won’t bring no peace
Cause pieces are what’s left of me
Pieces are what’s left of me
OUTRO:
(Pieces are whats left of me) [x2]
Say it to my face and disrespect my name
I might be causing you some pleasure, but I feel no pain
And you can take it all from me
You won’t bring no peace
Cause pieces are what’s left of me
Pieces are what’s left of me (left of me)
Blanket Forts
INTRO:
The thought of growing up has never scared me before
Now I just wanna lay in bed all day or just lay across the floor
Can we just tuck ourselves away and forget about this mess?
Oh, can we please just stay in our blanket forts?
V1:
Troubles in the outside world, you’re gonna have to face them
Maybe alone, we don’t know
Need a job?
You’re gonna have to deal with it
Call it quits when you’re done, now you’re living in your momma’s basement
What’s it like when you don’t know a thing but you know that you really can’t fake it?
PC:
Will I ever conquer my dreams?
Will anyone listen to me?
C:
The thought of growing up has never scared me before
Now I just wanna lay in bed all day or just lay across the floor
Can we just tuck ourselves away and forget about this mess?
Oh, can we please just stay in our blanket forts?
V2:
Growing up you fantasized about how the adult life seemed like paradise but,
you’re kinda clueless on what to do
I’m sorry kid, but the joke’s on you
You’re gonna wanna use your real eyes to realize the real lies that you’re exposed to
Now there’s not much time left to think
You can let it slip, even if you blink
PC:
And if I don’t conquer my dreams,
Will you not think highly of me?
C:
The thought of growing up has never scared me before
Now I just wanna lay in bed all day or just lay across the floor
Can we just tuck ourselves away and forget about this mess?
Oh, can we please just stay in our blanket forts?
Stay
Stay, Stay
Ah
Stay in our blanket forts [x2]
[SOLO]
C:
(The thought of) Growing up has never scared me before
Now I just wanna lay in bed all day or just lay across the floor
Can we just tuck ourselves away and forget about this mess?
Oh, can we please just stay in our blanket forts?
Stay
Stay, Stay
Ah
Stay in our blanket forts [x2]
Push Me Away
INTRO:
(I know that a life without love is no life at all)
V1:
Why’d you have to leave so soon?
Why did it have to end this way?
You left me with too many thoughts
You left me with way too much pain
Why’d you have to leave so soon?
It didn’t have to end this way.
I’m stuck here with too many thought
Thinking you might feel the same
PC:
But now that it’s over, love
I don’t wanna fade away from your memory
You left me in your shadow, love
Oh I just want you to stay
but you push me away
Push me away
[DROP]
V2:
Now I find myself wondering,
Thinking and thinking
It feels like my world just keeps shrinking and shrinking.
I can’t seem to let you go free from my mind,
My body can’t take it
I lost what was mine
I lay here in bed
Your voice in my head keeping me up at night
Picture you and me instead
PC:
But now that it’s over, love
I don’t wanna fade away from your memory
You left me in your shadow, love
Oh I just want you to stay
but you push me away
Push me away
[DROP]
Yeah you push me
Push me away
Yeah you push me
Push me away
B:
You know I still love you, baby
(I still love you, baby)
I’ll hope you’ll understand
(I’ll hope you’ll understand)
They tell me not to worry, maybe
(No don’t worry)
It all works out in the end
(It all works out in the end)
PC:
But now that it’s over, baby
I might just fade away from your memory
You left me in your shadow, baby
Oh I wanted you to stay, but you push me away
Push me away
[DROP]
Yeah you push me
Yeah you push me
You push me away
Yeah you push me
Push me
You push me
Yeah you push me
Yeah you push me
You push me away
Asylum
V:
You don’t care about my feelings, do you?
You tore me into bits
You should’ve done it sooner
Wishing you and had never even met
Would’ve been better for the both of us
Wouldn’t have been obsessed
I’m the violence in the pouring rain
I’m the hurricane inside your brain
I’ll make you run in circles
I’ll make you go insane
But nothing can compare to the way you make me feel.
C:
Lock me in your Asylum,
I just wanna have some fun
Sounds like the perfect place to be when you’ve got nowhere else to run
Lock me inside your Asylum,
Maybe now I’ll have some fun
You can spend a day with me
Before you start wanting to run
La La la di da
La la la la
La La la di da
La la la
V2:
It’s alright
I’ll arrest myself today
Take me to a mental place
Where they keep each mental case
I’ll just take myself away
So that once you’re left alone
you’ll know that you won’t see my face
And you’ll feel so much more at home
C:
Lock me in your Asylum,
I just wanna have some fun
Sounds like the perfect place to be when you’ve got nowhere else to run
Lock me inside your Asylum,
Maybe now I’ll have some fun
You can spend a day with me
Before you start wanting to run
La La la di da
La la la la
La La la di da
La la la
B:
Oh, can you help me?
But, it’s probably too late
I might be missing from my cell
Oh, can you help me?
But, it’s probably too late
I might be missing from my cell
C:
Lock me in your Asylum,
I just wanna have some fun
Sounds like the perfect place to be when you’ve got nowhere else to run
Lock me inside your Asylum,
Maybe now I’ll have some fun
You can spend a day with me
Before you start wanting to run. [x2]
La La la di da
La la la la
La La la di da

Numb
V1:
Oh, I’m feeling like I never have before
Sort of like I wanna rush out through the door
Let me open up your mind
Let me open up your mind
With you around, I never needed nothing more
Now I’m feeling like I never have before
Can I open up your mind
Let me open up your mind
(Ah)
PC:
“Come up to me, I need to talk to you”
I had a funny feeling that I knew where this was going
“It’s not you, it’s me”
But was that really true?
I’ll take the blame cause I already told you
C:
I’m numb in every way
And I really won’t care about what you say
Every time you pass me by I’ll wish you well
Cause I’m numb (yeah)
Cause I’m numb
V2:
(Oh no no no no no)
When I close my eyes I can’t see a thing, yeah
Looking over shoulders feeling pity for me, eh?
Say what you say
I won’t care anyway
(Yeah)
PC:
“Come up to me, I need to talk to you”
I had a funny feeling that I knew where this was going
“It’s not you, it’s me”

I’ll take the blame cause I already told you
(That…)
C:
I’m numb in every way
And I really won’t care about what you say
Every time you pass me by I’ll wish you well
Cause I’m numb (yeah)
Cause I’m numb
B:
When I close my eyes
I’m numb in every way
Numb
It’s not you, it’s me
(It’s not you, it’s me)
I’ve already told you
*gasp*
C:
Numb in every way (come up to me, yeah)
And I really won’t care about what you say (need to talk to you)
(Oh, I had a funny feeling)
Every time you pass me by I’ll wish you well
(Oh I wish you well, yeah I wish you well)
Cause I’m numb (yeah)
Cause I’m numb
Remedy
V1:
Take a look at me I’m everything to everyone
Best believe I’m anything
Oh, to anyone
I know you better than you know yourself
You know I do
You know I do
You know me better than I know myself
You think you do
You think you do
PC:
Come and listen closely
Come and see the words fall out my mouth
The night ain’t getting younger
I can be your remedy while we sit and watch the world burn down
C:
Anything you want
Anything you need
Everything all in the palm of my hands
Who was it that hurt you?
Stole the light from your eyes, cut a whole in your heart and let the love run dry?
V2:
Even though your heart is broken
Leave it open and find hope in trusting someone new
Trusting someone new
I know you better than you know yourself
You know I do
You know I do
You know me better than I know myself
You think you do
You think you do
PC:

Come Over
V1:
(1, 2, 3…)
Feeling lost again
Stuck in my head in isolation
Staring at the wall all day
My best friend is my imagination
PC:
There’s something wrong with the way that we’re living,
Haven’t seen your face in so long, it’s no longer vivid.
Can you come over,
Can you come over,
Can you come over for a minute?
V2:
Walking down an empty street
Silence taking over because all I’ve got is me
And when you say you’re on your way, it brings a smile to my face cause…
PC:
There’s something wrong with the way that we’re living,
Haven’t seen your face in so long, it’s no longer vivid.
Can you come over,
Can you come over,
Can you come over for a minute?
C:
Because I’m falling into a mental state I can’t regulate no more
And I don’t wanna forget my name
Oh I can’t do this anymore
B:
Help me find a place where we can run away to help us live our lives again
Tell me it’s okay to make me wanna stay awake in what feels like a dream.
PC:
There’s something wrong with the way that we’re living,
Haven’t seen your face in so long, it’s no longer vivid.
Can you come over,
Can you come over,
Can you come over for a minute?
C:
Because I’m falling into a mental state I can’t regulate no more
And I don’t wanna forget my name
Oh I can’t do this anymore [x2]
Consequences of a Troubled Mind
V1:
Flick up your trigger
Light up for fun
Swallow the bullet that escapes to your lungs
Daddy left, no goodbye
Oh and you don’t wanna see your mommy cry
Your mind says you’re living, you’re flying, you’re trying to quit, but you die for the high.
PC:
Roll up
Roll up
I need someone,
need you
And I can’t see why you can’t think twice about the things you do.
C:
Secretly, everyone’s depressed and obsessed with the fact they feel alone
Find another way to cope and feel hope to color up your black and white
It’s okay to feel this way, Oh I know
Consequences of a Troubled Mind.
V2:
Blokes in the bathroom doing coke,
Strobe lights and you’re drowning in the smoke
Party to forget the past you know
But now you ain’t got a clue of where to go.
You don’t wanna head back home,
So you’re staying out and getting stoned
Cause you feel your world will fall down and crumble
PC:
Roll up
Roll up
I need someone,
need you
And I can’t see why you can’t think twice about the things you do.
C:
Secretly, everyone’s depressed and obsessed with the fact they feel alone
Find another way to cope and feel hope to color up your black and white
It’s okay to feel this way, Oh I know
Consequences of a Troubled Mind.
[SOLO]
C:
Secretly, everyone’s depressed and obsessed with the fact they feel alone
Find another way to cope and feel hope to color up your black and white
It’s okay to feel this way, Oh I know
Consequences of a Troubled Mind.
Don’t Let Go (w/Billy Wales)
V1:
[Billy]
Late nights, I stay awake
Never sleeping
Reflecting off my bad days
Overthinking is an evil that I can’t escape
No one ever hits me up to ask if I’m okay
So I just toss and turn and deal with my depression
Live or die,
I don’t know which direction
Lost myself, no longer feel connected
For me, this life’s a curse and not a blessing.
What did I do wrong in life?
And why I gotta fight this fight?
And why it feel like everybody always having a good time, while I can’t sleep at night?
I think it’s time I go,
I’m sorry to the people that I left back home
I truly wish I could travel another road
My life’s long gone, I’ma tie this rope.
Dear family,
This is my final goodbye
I never meant to hurt you,
But I had to end my life
So if you’re reading this letter just know I am alright
I’m in a better place now,
It’s a beautiful sight
I couldn’t take it no more,
I couldn’t take all the wars,
Body depleted
I was weak, I couldn’t stand me no more.
Fighting these demons everyday,
I never opened my door.
Fighting and screaming,
Haunted dreams,
When I wake up, there’s more.
These pills wouldn’t help, so I just drank and drank
Drown my body with liquor to avoid the pain
I cried out for help, but now it’s too late
I cried out,
I yelled, but hey it’s okay
I just want you to know whatever happens
Always know you’re never alone
I’ll be by your side no matter where you go,
It’s just my time to let go and I…
PC:
[Alain]
Can’t take all the suffering,
Come and give me a hand
Before I call an end to my life.
Don’t know if I’m sorry
For the pain that I’ll cause,
I’m just over it all.
C:
[Alain]
(Don’t let go)
Take a look at those who love you and know we’ll always love you
(Don’t let go)
We need you more than ever,
Those demons should know better
Than to mess with the mind of such a powerful soul
I thought I should let you know
We’re always here to hold you close,
Just promise us you won’t let go.
V2:
[Billy]
(Yeah)
Yo this ain’t a coincidence
If you’re hearing this now,
Just know this song is heaven sent
The power in your thoughts are clear and evident
If you look at yourself, just know the mirror is evidence that you have a purpose
I know it ain’t perfect
You can’t give up based off struggles and burdens
The evil is burning
Don’t hop in the furnace
The power in you is a light that can’t be burnt in
And where do I begin?
If you don’t feel love, then you need new friends
Cause the real ones stay and see the hurt from within
Let the fake ones go,
Bodies heal in the end
(Yeah)
I’ll hold you close at night
Don’t let go, just fight
Only love and light
No more pain in sight
No bad dreams, alright?
You are strong and bright
Don’t let go, tonight.
[Alain]
I’m worried sick about you
Every single night I stay up,
thinking ‘bout each and every one of your moves
You say nobody loves you,
That you have no purpose in life
But see the bigger picture,
Know that you mean so much in mine
And I don’t know what I’d do if I lost you
Especially if it was cause of something you caused, too
You said you’d care for friends and family, is that true?
So then why would you want your precious life to end soon?
Take your time
To speak your mind
It’s okay
We’ll be here
To listen to you closely
Don’t do anything stupid,
Something that you just might regret
You’ve got so much ahead of you,
Now know that your time isn’t over yet
(No)
PC:
[Alain]
Can’t take all the suffering,

[Billy]
The scars on my body remind me
Of every word you said to hurt me,
Of everything you laugh why I cry
so I cut til I’m numb and watch my arm bleed
The scars on my body remind me
That I’m weak at times, I can’t speak
That I’m weak
I’m trapped
I’m not free
The scars on my body remind me.
