YEAR AFTER YEAR

track title: year after year 

When did life become a bad trip
And when will you get over it
Can you believe the nights are over
I pulled you down and got you closer
I carried stone
Mixed concrete with my blood and bones

What are we doing here?
How do we disappear
You can’t run from this
You can’t run from here
And everything I see
Just the same machines
As they watch us bleed
Year after year

I’ve been out here, I’ve seen em’ dying
What’s it like having no one want to see you in heaven?
For the first time, you can cut in line
No one expected you, but the dice are loaded
Roling and rolling, high off controlling
They want a fight?
How about a fucking war.
You weren’t raised like that
Do you even know who you are?

What are we doing here?
How do we disappear?
You can’t run from this
You can’t run from here
And everything I see
Just the same machines
As they watch us bleed
Year after year

When you wake up, you will say that “you should have known, all along”
When I wake up, I will say that “you should have known, all along”
When you wake up, you will say that “you should have known, all along”
When I wake up, you will say that “you should have known, all along”

What are we doing here?
How do we disappear?
You can’t run from this
You can’t run from here
And everything I see
Just the same machines
As they watch us bleed
Year after year

They want a fight?
How about a fucking war.
You weren’t raised like that
Do you even know who you are?
(Can you believe that the nights are over
I pulled you down and got you closer)
They want a fight?
How about a fucking war.
You weren’t raised like that
Do you even know who you are?

i'm done not waking up

artist: anxious club
album: midnight at smoke permanent
track title: i’m done not waking up

the only thing that matters is the thing that I neglect
I think I’m done with it, think I’m done with it
and I don’t want to talk right now
I think I’ll hide behind this door
I’m almost done with it, almost done with it

and you know how it haunts you
that electrical wave through your body

I don’t want to sleep here anymore
I’m done not waking up with you, here anymore
I’m done not waking up with you

and that smile
it melts my body like fire
it paralyzes me
and that’s the only thing that matters
that should matter to me, to me

and you know how it haunts you
that electrical wave through your body

I don’t want to sleep here anymore
I’m done not waking up with you
here anymore, I’m done not waking
I just want to drive all night to see your closed eyes
I don’t want to sleep here anymore
I’m done not waking up

he just got here, all alone
(here with these thoughts again)
All alone, are you distracted by my screaming baby?
you said you’re living the same day, over and over again
(here with these thoughts again)
we’re so blessed to have him, to have them
I don’t want to sleep

I don’t want to sleep
(the only thing that matters, you’re the only thing that matters,
you’re the only thing that matters to me)

I don’t want to sleep here anymore
I’m done not waking up with you
here anymore, I’m done not waking
I just want to drive all night to see your closed eyes
I don’t want to sleep here anymore
I’m done not waking up
I’m done not waking up with you

FIND YOUR MONSTER

artist: anxious club
album: midnight at smoke permanent
track title: FIND YOUR MONSTER

i’m not your monster
i’m not your enemy
i’m not your monster
we’re our worst enemies

but there’s chemicals running through my head now
running through my veins now
and I’m trying to stay the same
oh, it happens everyday now
perception runs away now
and I’m trying to stay the same

am I distracted
same bottles getting concentrated
and I, I don’t think it’s really my fault at all
is it really anybody’s fault at all
times so short everybody’s heading home

but there’s chemicals running through my head now
running through my veins now
and I’m trying to stay the same
oh, it happens everyday now
perception runs away now
and I’m trying to stay the same
trying to stay

they said it was best
they said it’s okay
they said it’s the lesser of two evils…for now

the chemistry changes
it’s not a thought you can stop having
a state of mind, a state of emergency
(are you bringing this to life)
i know it grows inside of you
scream for change all remain– escapes will keeps you here

another day, another year
you need a real plan
how strange that “the easy road”
was so damn hard, was so damn hard
i’m just trying to stay the same
trying to stay…

broken glasses

album: midnight at smoke permanent
track title: broken glasses

i woke up in broken glasses
i thought i could see just fine
but i didn’t know i couldn’t see
thinking the world was crooked
and only i could see
this isn’t the first or the last or the 600th time

do you mind if i turn the room upside down

i can barley take a step without falling
tripping over everything, locked in the same room that i
put myself in, we’re all so guilty
but it’s so damn dark
cant stop dropping things
now my foots soaking wet
and these hands are shaking

do you mind if i turn the room upside down
now you’re standing on the edge
waiting for someone to wake up
now you need to wake up
god I need to wake up

we gotta learn to live tonight
without thinking about dying
really need to live tonight
without thinking about dying
we gotta learn to live
without thinking about dying

we just gotta live tonight
without thinking about dying
we just gotta live
(do you mind, if i turn the room upside down)
without thinking about dying, without thinking about dying

we just gotta live
we just gotta live
we just gotta live
like there’s one life that were given
one life that we’re given

all i see are colors fading
the thought of you saying my name
drags everything out
what if you’re wearing broken glasses
what if this, what if that
now my hearts moving mountains

that’s not fair
that’s not fair at all
there was, was all the time I needed
