Track Name: Natural Disaster
You, take your hand
Off my head, off my head
Do what you want
It's your life, it's your life

Run, while you can
There's still time, to oblige
Don't, don't look back
It's not fair, disappear

Maybe there's still time
To fix this little liar
Take you by your wrist
And watch you as you fall

Soon all will see
Your true side, your true side
Sing, sing for me
Sounds so nice, i could die

Feel so secure
I'm so quaint, ain't it great?
Please don't resist
You want it so, deserve it so

Scream until you hit
The ground and break your spine
So where is he now?
The one who made that vow
To never leave your side
Track Name: Toilet Water
Fear is on my mind as of late
Fear that something will desecrate
The words we always left unsaid
Those empty feelings in my bed

I don't care about the days of the week
I don't care about the lies you have to speak

I don't wanna grow up

Go tell your friends I'm immature
You're all boring that's for sure
Truth is I've been doing just fine
My bed ain't empty only my mind

I don't care about the lies you have to speak
I don't care about the days of the week
I don't care about your fashion magazines
I don't care about your European dreams

I don't wanna grow up
Track Name: Hard to Say Goodbye
When you look into the mirror and the face is old and blurry
And the world is coming down you
When you're far away from home and your train don't leave till morning
And your mind is pushing to get through

Look inside you'll find yourself
In the eyes of someone else
Pack your bags she's coming with you
Walk outside and count the stars
One by one they break apart
Aren't you glad she's coming with you?

Faces spin around your head once again the feeling's dead
And the monster's back from where he came
Cool and calm you walk away, feel the breeze it's early May
Feel the lovely rain that hits your face

Look inside you'll find yourself
In the eyes of someone else
Pack your bags she's coming with you
Walk outside and count the stars
One by one they break apart
Aren't you glad she's coming with you?

And it's hard to say goodbye
Wipe that tear now from your eye
We have to carry on, we need to carry on
But it's hard to say goodbye
Track Name: The Ones
I won't sink a knife for the color of your skin
I won't trade this mansion for a glass of tinted gin
I'll do my best to care for this pocketful of soil
And I won't pull a trigger for no barrelful of oil

Were one step from making it out alive
Were one step from leaving it all behind
Cuz we're the ones who always did it better
Were the ones who put you to the test
Were the ones who work hard for our money
We're the ones you who always did it best

I won't try to stop these rusted wheels from turning
I won't pretend to solve all of my troubles before morning
I won't look down I won't look up I'll just look straight ahead
Cuz we are the invisibles and our words are full of lead
Track Name: Roller Coaster Song
Some people like to wake up early
Hustle blindly off to make their due
Me I like coffee in the morning
And slowly waking up next to you

Some people like to get married
Have a big yard full of kids
Some people like to buy houses
Me I just like to roam the streets

Let's sit back and enjoy this roller coaster ride
All I want you to know is I'm here by your side
When it's all said and done you're the only ones I'll take
Just thought you should know, my friends

Some people like to steal diamonds
Some people like to kill
Some people like to think they're better than you
Me I just like to keep it real

Some people live in their selfish world
Afraid of when it's all gonna end
Me I like hanging out with my homies
And watching sunsets ride across the land
Track Name: Going Back Home
It's snowy day, there's no school today
We can go out and play

Sun is shining out, flowers on the ground
And I love you today

And I need you to follow me there
And I need you to follow me there
Cuz I'm going back home

Summer's here now, it's so damn hot out
Let's walk to the lake
Leaves are falling, wind is stronger now
And I thought you would stay

And I need you to follow me there
And I need you to follow me there
Cuz I'm going back home


And I need you to follow me there
And I need you to follow me there
Cuz I'm going back home
Track Name: Dispel
And so I fall again
And there you are to break my fall no more
And everything's the same
The sky is nothing more than space above
It's not like I became
A different point of view to see you through
So why'd you have to change
And why'd you have to love yourself so much

And as you leave before me
It's my cue

Cuz this is the last song
I will write to you

Oh no somehow I've gone too far
I'm not the same I was before
Your eyes, your lies
Your stupid alibis
Your touch, your smell
It's our time to dispel

So farewell my love
Your warning was so unappreciated
And a boy is not a man
Until he breaks that bond that he's created
Don't say it's all your fault
Even though it is, I will not persist
So let's go out swinging
Just the way you love to do it your way

And as you leave before me
It's my cue

Cuz this is the last song
I will write to you

Oh no somehow I've gone too far
I'm not the same I was before
Your eyes, your lies
Your stupid alibis
Your touch, your smell
It's our time to dispel
Track Name: Sunny Days
Sunny days are all you bring
In the summer, in the spring
Sunny days are all your bring

I hope to see you
I hope to see you there
