The Arch 03:56
Keep still Don’t show how you feel Duty is more than what you want Hide, sacrifice what’s inside sacrifice Keep still Don’t show how you feel
2.
Big Regrets 03:32
Holding out, falling down Miss the mark, hit the ground I remember against the wall Body breaks but keeps the score Big regrets makes me wanna drown I forget how to make a sound Big regrets weighs me down I forget how to make you proud Hear it calling, call my name Is it guilt or is it shame? Overpowered by my self-doubt Can you stop it? Show me how Big regrets makes me wanna drown I forget how to make a sound Big regrets weighs me down I forget how to make you proud

Driving past the trees Thinking what could have been When the sea breeze carries me Ten years haunting Late night, caught in a loop How could we continue? When the sea breeze carries me Ten years haunting Are you still worried about it anymore? Cos I’m still haunted by memories I can’t hold I’m not so worried about it anymore But I’m still haunted by memories I can’t hold

ABSD 02:42
A brighter summer day But it gets harder every way My father will never say When they locked him up that day A brighter summer day Riding on a violent wave They’re coming for me Better toughen up boy, can’t you see?
5.
If I forget the things you said Would I sleep better in my bed? If I forget the things we had Maybe I would live instead Remember when we laughed back then? The world was whole but now it’s gone I’ll just hold on a little more Cos time moves forward Yeah, time moves on

Maborosi 04:36
How do I move on when all I hear is sounds of you all around? Hear the train pass by like a thunderstorm I couldn’t help but cry (ha ha ah...) See you walk away for the hundredth time I couldn’t make you stay Daylight dreams as I sit in the summer breeze I feel you there in the air
