So many times // I’ve gone through life
Wondering // what if, when, and how
With no progress // and when it circles back
It’s all because I’m
Scared for my life // pressed between my thoughts and them
The nay-sayers and dream-slayers // weighing in and crushing me slowly
I begin by slipping // I can’t make up my mind
Growing more uncertain // as I begin to cave
I’m ready to ascend // and realize my worth
C
Right as I give in to doubt // I look inwards and I shout
I won’t give in
‘Cuz if I’m truly wanting more // to go down in legend and in lore
I will stand tall // and push through all this spite and hate I hear
V2
Just stop with the reasons // I don’t need your scales of justice
For once hear me out // I don’t care for your approval
In the longest time I thought that // that’s the key to life
But no one cares about me // so I don’t care what you say
I bit my tongue for so long // now it’s time to make my move
One time for the haters // and one time for my self
Watch me succeed // I’ll do it on my own
C
Right as I give in to doubt // I look inwards and I shout
I won’t give in
‘Cuz if I’m truly wanting more // to go down in legend and in lore
I will stand tall // and push through all this spite and hate I hear

V1
Let’s get up tonight
By now I’m sure your packed
what’s a night of rest worth
to night you wont forget
Meet at Mercer’s pier
we’ll jump the fence once more
run to the edge of the dock
Where the lights fingers barely reach
C
Turn the lights out
we can both get lost tonight
if it’s you and i
V2 pt.a
don’t think of time
let it fly on by
enjoy this moonlight with me
cuz once you board that plane
And the engines start to turn
they shred apart my lungs
V2 pt.b
Hey
don’t forget
these few days
you changed my life
and now you’re gone
C
Turn the lights out
we can both get lost tonight
if it’s you and i
B pt.a
I could write how
You changed my life and
I will forever
recall this weekend
The pictures I took
Of you standing
On the ledge are
ingrained forever
The night you spent with
Me at my place
so many smiles
So much laughter
I felt like I had
known you for
a life time
A time and a life ago
B pt.b
I guess I can’t complain
In history our time’s been swell
C
Turn the lights out
we can both get lost tonight
if it’s you and i

Goodbye Carolina, it’s nighttime where I’m at
the oceanside hasn’t lost it’s shine, cuz you’re my summer moon
but the hours dark so I’m looking for where I parked my jeep
I’m gonna stop the thoughts and leave these memories at Access 43
until next year—
C
On the one hand I lose on the other I break
It's the first time I see a choice
I've been fooled by my pride which was riddled in love
Both of which now lay buried in the sand
V2
A short drive down 74
I’m quickly taken back to your door
My weary legs anchored on your porch
My hands balled in a fist
but how pathetic am I really
you moved away after your sophomore year
You left a note saying, “I’m so sorry”
done up in his handwriting
C
On the one hand I lose on the other I break
It's the first time I see a choice
I've been fooled by my pride which was riddled in love
Both of which now lay buried in the sand
Outro
Waves crashing down // it's a sound that overwhelms me
Thoughts begin to drown // I let them go gently
Every star I wished on was just a lie // now my conscience is clear and my souls open wide
The road is my own // I'm going where it takes me
Volume up I won't be back next year

V1P1
Too many nights we went to bed upset
Too many nights we threatened to leave
How did we get here
How did we let it get this far
Too many nights spent bickering back and forth
Taking jabs at each other’s tender spots
We said some awful things
Pouring salt in all the wounds we left
V1P2
Where is your heart tonight
We’ve always recovered from these nights
C
Why do we do this to each other (time after time)
We’re not content with who each other is
V2P1
I can’t stand to bare this pain I’m in
I just hate to see us suffering
You use semantics to bring up how I’m wrong
You wont admit you’re wrong to spare us tonight
V2P2
Where is your heart tonight
We’ve always recovered from these nights
C
Why do we do this to each other (time after time)
We’re not content with who each other is
It’s our life, our lie, that we live in (look what we’ve done)
What’s the point of seeing who gives up first (that’s not love)
B
I guess all that time and all that love we spent
Meant nothing to bring us closer, to bring us from growing apart
C
We’ll no longer do this to each other (I’m happy without you)
We’re not content so whats the point of dragging knuckles
Let’s agree on heading our own ways (I’m moving on)
Its for the best, let’s lay to rest, all this anger (I’m happy without you)
