Fade in and out of consciousness. See life as you think it should be, Watch it crumble. Fade in and out of reality. Everything you wish was real Is just a dream.

Cadence 02:20
Some people say that "We only have what we remember," And that just makes me so happy, That all you were to me was a blur. We're all talking about these sleepless nights, And how much they get under our skin. But I feel like lately the sleepless nights are what I need, Not to remember, But not to forget, To temporarily put these aching thoughts into storage for a while. I continue to wonder around my house late at night, Drink coffee, Light a cigarette, And sit down to write these things down. Only to have them be forgotten; Float away with the smoke I exhale. It's kind of funny how much I contradict myself sometimes, Being that these lyrics will be engraved into my mind For the rest of my days. When my eyes rest for good, All I'll have left is these words I just jotted down on a piece of paper. Sometimes I think that maybe this isn't all worth it, But there's this constant pattern inside of me; This constant rhythm guiding me. I could never really make out what it was, And although I'm not too sure, This is what I think: My life is a cadence. Constantly repeating itself, So I learn what to do different the next time. When I make a small change to the piece, it gets better. And once I finally get the perfect composition, Death will arrive.

And there I was, Standing at my own funeral, Watching as people nonchalantly just stared at my corpse. Did I even amount to anything? Or did I just fail myself? It's weird to look at everything from the outside. I don't see anyone that I recognize here, And it doesn't seem like too many people seem to care. Is this what death is like? Everyone just accepts that you're gone And then they continue on? I feel selfish, I want there to be more than this. Will I even be remembered? Or will I wash away with the tide Just as I have before? What is to come of me? What is to come of me? I feel like I didn't say everything I needed to; The anxiety fills up inside of me. There are words that are left unspoken Inside my brain. Did the coroner find those? Or did those leave with me? I want to know what happens after all of this. I want to know if had any meaning. I can't be too sure right now, But from the looks of it, The chances seem to be slim. Is this what death is like? Everyone just accepts that you're gone And then they continue on? I feel selfish, I want there to be more than this. Will I even be remembered? Or will I just wash away with the tide As I have before? What is to come of me? I feel like I didn't say everything I needed to; The anxiety fills up inside of me. There are important words that are left unspoken Inside my brain. Did the coroner find those? Or did those leave with me? I want to know what happens after all of this. I want to know if had any meaning. I can't be too sure right now, But from the looks of it, The chances seem to be slim. People say their goodbyes, And I'm slowly lowered six feet under. Stuck in my brain, My questions unanswered.

I walk around aimlessly at night, Constantly trying to figure out where I am. I'm not entirely sure if I mean that literally, Or if I'm trying to figure out Where I am in my head. I feel like I'm permanently stuck in a daze; I'm awake one minute Then dreaming the next. I'd like to say I have a firm grasp on reality, But I can never be too sure anymore. The truth is, I don't know about most things. I dive into things Thinking I knowing what I'm doing, But the outcome usually seems to be the opposite. I want to go back to when I got A good night's sleep. I'm sick of watching the moon rise quickly, And then waiting for the long process Of the sun to replace it. I always feel like I'm stuck in this daze; I'm awake one minute Then dreaming the next. I'd like to say I have a firm grasp on reality, But I can never be too sure anymore. Waiting is all I ever seem to do anymore, anyways. I wait for the seasons to change, Hoping things will get better. I wait for people to hear me out about what I say, But then again, I'm always waiting for a chance to speak. So I'll wait until the sun replaces the moon, When most people start their days; And I'll just fall right back Into my uncomfortable daze. I'll wait for the sun to replace the moon. I'm permanently stuck waiting.

Better Off 02:24
Why do I let these things happen? Back into consciousness I fall. Maybe I'm better off six feet under. Why do I let these things happen? Back into consciousness I fall. Maybe I'm better off six feet under...
