Figure out just where you're going You might get caught in the moment When you feel it don't ignore it You might get caught in the..... Figure out just where you're going You might get caught in the moment When you feel it don't ignore it You might get caught in the moment Oh, you might get caught in the moment In the moment I've been feeling really down let me get up I've been having bad dreams can I wake up Gettin' so difficult to breathe Don't talk to me Don't talk to me Have you ever had doubts bout your own life? Have you fallen really low from a good time? Does it get difficult to breathe? Please talk to me Please talk to me Have you ever looked left when you turn right? Thinkin' bout what that path would've looked like I dream of you and me Don't talk to me Don't talk to me Don't talk to me (Oh yeah) Bad dreams are haunting me Oh, bad dreams are haunting me (I cannot see you and I am afraid of the dark so will you hold my hand and guide me) I can't build you up If it means that I'm down It's your fault, then you own it We're caught in the moment We're wasting our nights Oh, we wasted our lives 'Cause we waited for you We got caught in the moment We're so sick and done Say I'm not good enough No, you don't own my mind I'm getting caught in the moment If you think that you've won Know that you're never done It's getting harder to own it We're caught in the moment We're terrified to leave We've been sitting here all damn day (All damn day) We're terrified to speak We ran out of all our words to say (Words to say) (Words to...) Figure out just where you're going You might get caught in the moment When you feel it don't ignore it You might get caught in the..... Figure out just where you're going You might get caught in the moment When you feel it don't ignore it You might get caught in the moment Oh, you might get caught in the moment In the moment

She's got Short hair and a Long jacket With a rich little daddy And a nice tennis racket She's a Fashion model who's a Little artsy With some trendy friends saying She can come and join their party It's a Big world but I only see me and you My dream girl, you've been making everything less blue It's a Big world but tonight it's just me and you You're my dream girl you've been making everything less blue I know you're waiting somewhere I know you're waiting somewhere I've been dreaming for the day When I'd be with you I've been praying that my dreams might come so true And I'm hoping there's a chance You feel this too Because I danced with you In Malibu I've been dreaming for the day When I'd be with you I've been praying that my dreams might come so true And I'm hoping there's a chance You feel this too Because I danced with you In Malibu Dream girl, I've been waiting all my life Where you been I've been searching all night Saw your face at the show in the light Saw your face at the show Now she's Disappointed in just How I'm living And I'm telling her I'm sorry And I'm ending everything I'm in Love and it's not okay I'm in Love and it's not okay She's got Long hair and a Short jacket With a shitty little daddy And a broken tennis racket She's a Wannabe model who's a Little artsy With some lame dudes saying That she can't come to their party It's a Big world I don't wanna see me and you (Big world I don't wanna see me and you) My dream girl, you've been making everything so blue (My dream girl, you've been making everything so blue) It's a Big world I don't wanna see me and you (Big world I don't wanna see me and you) My dream girl, you've been making everything so blue (My dream girl, you've been making everything so blue) I know she's waiting somewhere I know she's waiting somewhere I've been dreaming for the day When I'd be with you I've been praying that my dreams might come so true And I'm hoping there's a chance You feel this too Because I danced with you In Malibu I've been dreaming for the day When I'd be with you I've been praying that my dreams might come so true And I'm hoping there's a chance You feel this too Because I danced with you In Malibu

I won't talk If you don't believe me I won't say a word if you know that I'm leaving I'm leaving tonight Leaving you behind I can't say that I ever trusted A word that you said Oh, you used all the labor From my emotions You're causing commotions I'm falling fast I'm hiding in the lost and found I don't think I'm living now I don't think I'm living now I'm falling fast I'm hiding in the lost and found I don't think I'm living now I don't think I'm living now I don't think that you ever notice When I'm feeling down When you're not around When you're not around I don't think that you understand All the words that I say When I'm trying to tell you I'm so damn tired of this I'm so damn tired of this I'm falling fast I'm hiding in the lost and found I don't think I'm living now I don't think I'm living now I'm falling fast I'm hiding in the lost and found I don't think I'm living now I don't think I'm living now

I'm driving 'round it's killing me Please oh baby can't you see I'm fucking sick of partying It's peaking my anxiety I don't wanna go now I wanna be home now Guess I'll see myself out Drink until I might drown Take a look around, crowds Wishing I could melt down Rockstar without lifestyle Flipping on my fake smile I'm driving 'round it's killing me Please oh baby can't you see I'm fucking sick of partying It's peaking my anxiety It's peaking my anxiety Oh, it's peaking my anxiety (I just wanna be alone) (Please, oh please don't make me go) I just wanna be alone and never leave my comfort zone I sit in silence on my own Reflecting on the things I don't do 'cause I'm afraid Of the mess that I might make Lay in the bed that I have made And waste away my days 'Cause I'm fuckin sick of being me It's peaking my anxiety I think I'm gonna go now 'Cause I don't even know How I feel or what's real How I feel or what's real I'm driving 'round it's killing me Please oh baby can't you see I'm fucking sick of partying It's peaking my anxiety I'm driving 'round it's killing me Please oh baby can't you see I'm fucking sick of partying It's peaking my anxiety I just wanna be alone Please oh, please don't make me go I think I've reached my pinnacle And now you're blowing up my phone I just wanna be alone Please oh, please don't make me go I think I've reached my pinnacle And now you're blowing up my phone I just wanna be alone Please oh, please don't make me go Now you're blowing up my phone And I can't breathe And I can't breathe And I can't breathe And I can't breathe.......

Sittin' here in a coffee shop Writin' words just to pass the clock Daydreamin', good thinkin' You came and saved me You look so damn cool I wish I could tell you You're shining and glowing You don't even know it I see that you notice that I think you're pretty Can you take my hand, we can leave to the city Where no one will find us We'll leave it behind us Fall deep in love Let the love blind us (We can let the love blind us) (We can leave it behind us) I don't think it's real and I've been falling for it (Falling for it) Maybe I'm not dreaming and it's real life this time (Real life this time) 'Cause I've been daydreaming And I don't know what to believe in It's really getting me thinking 'Cause lately I've been daydreaming 'Cause I've been daydreaming And I don't know what to believe in It's really getting me thinking 'Cause lately I've been daydreaming (I've been daydreaming) (Lately I've been daydreaming, yeah) (Lately I've been daydreaming) (Baby I've been daydreaming) I don't even know just when it's real

Don't you ever look back and think of it? Don't you ever look back to what he said? Do your thoughts form clouds inside your head And then rain Do you ever look back and wonder if The words you said would have saved him If the thoughts you think inside your head Would go away (You can build the clouds, and then rain) (You can build the clouds, and then rain) All of the things you said you wanted A big huge family and a garden A little swing for all the toddlers And their alcoholic fathers Just to grow up and be bothered Little things turn into problems Would he be here in the long run If I played the part of his son? .......................................

Apartments And streetlights And you right By my side By my side By my side It felt right I hated that We stayed up Cultivated that Never made it back Never made it back Now you're a New York baby You're a fashion lady Oh you're a New York baby You're my fashion lady Dancing on rooftops Taking photographs Playing hide and seek Making each other laugh Memories take me back Oh the memories take me back Drinking cheap wine Smoking cigarettes That we couldn't buy We weren't old enough I wasn't bold enough I couldn't be your love Do you wanna go back to the summer We were young Flash forward to the winter I held my tongue And we danced without the sun And we sat until the dawn Do you wanna go back Do you wanna go back Say you wanna go back Say you wanna go back Say you wanna go back I don't wanna go back You didn't care What I did You trusted What I said What I said I fucked up The relationships I moved out You hated it You hated me Dancing on rooftops Taking photographs Playing hide and seek Making each other laugh Memories take me back Oh the memories take me back Drinking cheap wine Smoking cigarettes That we couldn't buy We weren't old enough I wasn't bold enough And I couldn't be your love Do you wanna go back to the summer We were young Flash forward to the winter I held my tongue And we danced without the sun And we sat until the dawn Do you wanna go back Do you wanna go back Say you wanna go back Say you wanna go back Say you wanna go back Do you wanna go back Do you wanna go back Say you wanna go back Say you wanna go back Say you wanna go back I don't wanna go back If we went back there would be A time and place for everything And I don't think that we could be Everything I said that we could be And if you need me I don't think I could be there after All these years I don't wanna go back I don't wanna go back I don't wanna go back I'm afraid to go back I'm afraid to go back I'm afraid to go back

Better Days 04:25

(Gibberish) ..................... It's a brand new sunrise And it feels like a brand new day I used to feel the sunlight And I miss the feelings that came With waking up and feeling good With having something to look forward to I sunk myself but I'm not doomed I've got a brand new attitude I just noticed sunlight And it feels like a brand new day And I feel OK And I think I'll stay For better days For better days For better days For better days I been praying that we'll have no fear I been on edge for a whole damn year We found our way to the golden city Found out life ain't all that pretty We both see our lives beginning But I've found that ours is ending For a new beginning we both part ways It's all in store for better days We fell into a hole But we found ourselves And now things are working out A new family by our sides And they're watching out In case everything goes south We'll see who is by our side We'll see who is there at night They said we couldn't be it And that we're only dreaming Oh can you see it We'll see who is by our side We'll see who is there at night
