Now that I'm older I feel so much colder Wade through the water It won't be too much longer "Till the end Now that I'm older I don't know if its over I never told her That I sold my soul To the world Get it out of my head Can't get out of this bed Get it out of my head Its easier to pretend Easier to regret Easier to descend Never again Never again Never again

Open slow Close up fast Stand up straight And make it last If I could find a way To be nothing again Could I be more than this? I could be something again Hold your breath For the time It takes to make Another crime (In your eyes) If I could find a way To be nothing again Could I be more than this? I could be something again If I could go back If I could go back If I could go back and change the way I would go back and make the same mistakes If I could find a way To be nothing again Could I be more than this? I could be something If I could find a way To be something again Could I be more than this? I could be nothing again

Remains 04:28
Its not too late To make amends Please show me how To live with everything that remains Summer comes and it Takes away All that we had Burns away Its not too long Before it comes Please show me how To live with everything that remains Summer comes and it Takes away All that we had Burns away Someone comes and they Leave a trace All that we had Goes to waste

Everything Everything That has not left me yet Remains Everything Everything That has not left me yet Remains Falling leaves and Idle breezes Falling leaves but I can't breathe... easily Remains Everything Everything That has not left me yet Remains

You Know 04:02
You know I don't want to But you make Make it hard to Leave here as I am I don't Want you to know What I've been Going through So please be patient with me I spent Way too long Tracing worried thoughts Through all these empty years I still think of you, dear Do you still think of me?

The lightning strikes before my eyes Every shade turned white In an instant, the truth is revealed But still I keep on lying I've become my own mask But none of this will last I've been waiting for a sign But until then, I'll keep lying I put on my elephant skin I keep my skeleton hid I put on my elephant skin I keep my skeleton hid I put on my elephant skin I keep my skeletons hid I put on my elephant skin But all the lies are wearing me thin

Take My Time 03:10
Take my time if you don't mind Take my time and I'll be fine Stay inside my head too long Making patterns, making songs Makes me stronger everyday But I "get weaker", still you say Take my time if you don't mind Take my time and I'll be fine I'll be...
