It seems alright It seems so bad It’s just the bitter taste that makes you mad Don’t be mad at the world Because it doesn’t do what you do Don’t be sad all the time When you think no one loves you Do you miss me? Do you hear me? Do you love what you do when no one cares about you? All this laughing drives me crazy This confusion gives me no room These walls are down, down, down But they don’t leave me alone This is all my fault Or am I thinking wrong The weight of the world is tearing you apart But the flower grows from the tears of your heart Do you miss me? Do you hear me? Do you love what you do when no one cares about you?

Whispers 04:44
Stay where you are Don’t run away Do you know who I am? My voice is not the same Are you thinking of the way you pushed me away from you? I’ll try and forget As you walk away Did you have a thought? A thought that we were the same Sometimes I think about you And sometimes I can barely breathe They’re all laughing at me You can’t touch the words I say They’re just whispers anyway Stay where you are Please, don’t run away Do you know who I am? My voice is not the same Are you thinking of the way you pushed me away from you? Smile and forget Yeah, I’ll just walk away Did you have a thought? ‘cause I thought that we were the same Sometimes I think about you And sometimes I can barely breathe They’re all laughing at me Tell me the difference between love and pain, ‘cause to me, they feel the same. Hold my while I’m down Screams are just sounds that push you away It’s all the same Nothing but the rain pouring down on me

You know what I’d do all your love I can’t lose When I wake up will you be there again? You know I would, it’s just those things you said I’ll pick you up even if you fall But you can drop me as far as you want And I can’t sleep 'cause I’m dreaming of you A million miles away Dreaming over what I’d do All I can think of, all I can dream of is you Words can’t tear us away And I’m still thinking of what to say But all these things. they don’t mean a thing And all my words just slip away Everyone runs just to see your face And I’ll just wait for you to say I can’t sleep 'cause I’m dreaming of you A million miles away Dreaming over what I’d do All I can think of, all I can dream of is you

Hush (2013) 03:41
Out on the street and blind to the light Your eyes say that nothing's right But still I believe in you Pray for me and I'll pray for you Hush, Hush, so I can hear you sing Hush, Hush, it's on you I lean Hush, Hush Hush Listen to the sound, the beat of your heart You're so on fire it tears you apart And still I'll be there for you Take my hand and we'll make it through Hush, Hush, so I can hear you sing Hush, Hush, it's on you I lean Hush, Hush Hush Hush, Hush, so I can hear you sing Hush, Hush, it's on you I lean Hush, Hush Hush

The October sky seems to go by I look up at the stars And I wonder where you are And I found a way But you're too far away Memories stay You teach us something new Beauty and love we know as you Feelings tear us down But you pick us up and off the ground And I found a way But you're too far away Memories stay The October sky seems to go by I look up at the stars And I know where you are
