(verse 1)
Sit alone and contemplate my life and who I really am
Never thought that it would be like this when I devised my master plan
(pre-chorus)
Now I wonder what it’s like to really feel alive
’cause I’m wasted, I’m worn, I’ve tried
(verse 2)
Spent the years trying to make sense of my past life events
Everything seems so pointless now so my head is hung to the ground
(pre-chorus)
And I wonder what it’s like to live outside my head
Can I enchant this dread? No I can’t
(chorus)
Wait for a new design
For the stars to align
For something divine to show me where to go
(bridge)
When will I finally be free?
Because it’s the waiting that’s killing me
(chorus)
Wait for a new design
For the stars to align
For something divine to show me where to go
I hate how there’s never time
For me to feel fine
I need a sign or I’m gonna lose my mind

Love Machine

(verse 1)
Well all you do is waste your day on your love machine
I’ve watched you slowly fade away, into nothing
And now you try and play me, like I’m in your world
But baby you’re alone and it seems that your
Machine is malfunctioning
(pre-chorus)
Oh it screams at me to…
(chorus)
Turn down your love machine
x4
(verse 2)
Would it bother you to know, what you feel isn’t really real
I’ve seen it all before, the door to your heart is sealed
And you say you want to break away but baby that’s a lie
Because it’s evidently clear that your fear is why you never try
(pre-chorus)
So goodbye, goodbye
(chorus)
Turn down your love machine
x4
(bridge)
And I feel our time is just slipping away
Sinking into yesterday
I can’t stop feeling strange for you
After all that we’ve been through
It’s time to make a choice
Does your machine have a voice
That comforts you tonight
Or will you follow me into the light
(chorus)
Turn down your love machine
x4
Your love machine
So turn it down
Turn it down x 3

(chorus)
I try to remember
But it seems that I don’t know myself these days
And it seems every November
When the leaves fall I begin to change
I change x2
(verse 1)
The air grows cold
My story’s getting old
As I walk down familiar roads
Reaping what I’ve sown
(chorus)
And I try to remember
But it seems that I don’t know myself these days
And it seems every November
When the leaves fall I begin to change
I change x2
(verse 2)
Looking for a sign
Something to remind me I’m alive
I’m under attack
Packs of wolves at my back
(chorus)
And I try to remember
But it seems that I don’t know myself these days
And it seems every November
When the leaves fall I begin to change
I change x2
(bridge)
And I feel the days I knew aren’t quite as true
Now I know, what’s real
’cause everything now is echoing loud that
One of these days I’ll run to you, and I’ll say it
One of these days I’ll run to you, and I’ll say it
Open, let’s open the doors of misery so
Open, I’ll open the doors of misery x2
Tonight…
(chorus)
And I try to remember
But it seems that I don’t know myself these days…

The Times
05:09
|

(verse 1)
Waking up in this place I knew
The window’s stained but the sun shines through
It’s not the same my friend
I’ve lost to gain what I feel
But it’s nothing new
No I’ve already seen this through
(pre chorus)
And I feel cold
As I try and wonder
How I made it back
Into my home
(chorus)
I miss you x3
All of you
(verse 2)
Stranger days have drifted by
These familiar walls refuse to lie
It’s not the same my friend
It’s too strange to feel
This all again
Oh it all again with you
(pre chorus)
And I feel cold
As I try and wonder
How I made it back
Into my home
(chorus)
I miss you x3
All of you
(bridge)
And what will it take to see this through?
And how do I feel when I love you?
Take me back to all the times when it was true
For us…
(chorus)
I miss you x3
I love you

Ghosts of You
03:57
|

(verse 1)
My heart is dead lying on your bed, it’s cold
As your arctic wind blows
The chill in my spine is probably from all the time that we spent
Time I know regret
(chorus)
And it feels like there’s ghosts inside my head
Haunting me with all the words you’ve said
I never knew a kiss could taste so black
But when I tasted yours I knew I’d never want you back
(verse 2)
These days are dark walking through the park in my head
Where all the green has turned to red
The sound of your voice gives me no choice but to leave
Our history under my sleeve
(chorus)
And it feels like there’s ghosts inside my head
Haunting me with all the words you’ve said
I never knew a kiss could taste so black
But when I tasted yours I knew I’d never want you back
(bridge)
How could you be so cold?
It’s a side of you that I have never known
You hate me you must
You hate me you must
Because how could you do this to someone who loved you?

(verse 1)
Where are you tonight?
You’re starting to give me a fright
Are you feeling alright?
Is your heavy burden feeling light?
(pre chorus)
And where have you gone now?
Why have you left me here?
Are you broken on the ground?
Is your body filled with fear?
(chorus)
And I can’t feel
You anymore
What is real?
’cause I don’t know
(verse 2)
Is there any life left in you?
Does your mind remember what’s true?
Is there anything that you can do?
Anyway that you can make it through tonight?
(pre chorus)
And where have you gone now?
Why have you left me here?
Are you broken on the ground?
Is your body filled with fear tonight?
(bridge)
And are you ever coming home?
And are you ever going to be done being alone?
And what the hell am I supposed to do?
When I have no control over you
I hate the choices that you’ve made
But my love for you will never change
Even if you go away
I will follow you someday
(chorus)
’cause I can’t feel
You anymore
What is real?
’cause I don’t know
