This Is Not A Vacation

Woke up this morning with a tear in my eye
Felt like the world as I knew it was gonna die
And I say hey, don't run away
That's when I knew that my time had come
Got to the point where I've got to move along
And I say hey, why don't you stay?
I've got the devil on one shoulder
And an angel on the other
But right now the devil's making a lot, lot more sense
This is not a vacation
Woke up this morning with a tear in my eye
Felt like the world as I knew it was gonna die
And I say hey hey, don't run away
That's when I knew that my time had come
Got to the point where I've got to move along
And I say hey hey, why don't you stay?
And all good things must come to an end
But I'm not sure this time
That I can make it round the bend
This is not a vacation
No, this is not a vacation
I've got the devil on one shoulder
And an angel on the other
But right now the devil's making a lot, lot more sense
This is not a vacation
No, this is not a vacation

Another day, another night, another bruise that don't sit right
Another broken mirror on the floor
Cracks that never heal, that exude the pain we feel
Feels like we have lived this all before
For 2 years we've had to strain and all those tears the fell in vain
All the fights and the blows that we exchanged
Though our demons still remain and it will happen again
It's never, it's never gonna change
We'll calm down, apologise, and retell all our precious lies
Remember it's not always been this way
But the writing's on the wall and we've been through it all
I just don't trust a fucking word you say
For 2 years we've had to strain and all those tears the fell in vain
All the fights and the blows that we exchanged
Though our demons still remain and it will happen again
It's never, it's never gonna change

Plastic Walls

You always knew just what I needed
You'd give it all if only you could
But when you're empty and depleted
And I'm afraid you're no longer no good
We'll stay here alone, together
Plastic walls make a home, forever
Ask myself what would I rather do
Be miserable alone or be miserable with you?
Here we are right back at the start
No longer matters who we are
2 hollow bodies locked together
2 empty souls sharing 1 broken heart
We'll stay here alone, together
Plastic walls make a home, forever
Ask myself what would I rather do
Be miserable alone or be miserable with you?

Secure Your Mask

We're all slaves to our demons
It's best to fight them now
While there's still some time
While there's still some fight left in us
Start treating yourself with respect
'Cause no one else will
We've all got our problems
Just leave it to yourself to fix
Secure your mask
Before attending to those of others around you
We're all slaves to our demons
It's best to fight them now
While there's still some time
While there's still some fight left in us
Start treating yourself with respect
'Cause no one else will
We've all got our problems
Just leave it to yourself to fix
Secure your mask
Before attending to those of others around you
Secure your mask
Secure your mask
Secure your mask
Or maybe I'll forget
Or maybe I just don't know how to live
And all this time well I thought I knew
What I was doing, what I was doing with my life
But it turns out I don't
Just another misdirected soul
Floating through this life
And I am broken
Yes, I am done
And all this time well I thought I knew
What I was doing with my life
But it turns out I don't have a clue
No, I don't have a clue

27 Years

27 years I've wasted here
I've been praying but I don't think he hears
Will my conscience ever find me
Would I be anything without my crimes to define me
I'm so fucking scared
27 years and all I've had is time to think of all the decisions that I've made
Now time is running out and my future's only clouded with doubt
What will happen now?
27 years, what can I do to make up for all of the lives I have destroyed?
When all of this is over, tell me, will salvation be any closer?
Let me go in peace
