Forget and Not Slow Down

How many times

Can I push it aside

Is it time I befriended all the ghosts of all the things that haunt me most

So they leave me alone

Move on with my life

Be certain the steps of left and right don't fight the direction of upright

I'd rather forget and not slow down

Than gather regret for the things I can't change now

If I become what I can't accept

Resurrect the saint from within the wretch

Pour over me and wash my hands of it

It's time to decide

Which is out of my mind

Cause it'll be me unless I put some thoughts to rest and leave some faults behind

I'll watch the glint in my eye

Shine off the spring in my step

And could be blinding depending on the amount of you that I reflect

Cause I could spend my life just trying to sift through

What I could've done better but what good do what ifs do

Oh oh

Oh oh

There's something I should tell you now

I Don't Need A Soul

I listen to the sirens as they sing me back to sleep

I pray that no one's seriously hurt

It feels like everything is dying at the pivot point of me

I listen to the sirens tell me things could still be worse

'Cause if you close your eyes and listen close

You can hear the chapter close

And its all rebound in better clothes

And you like the way this story goes

'Cause the sun still burns the shadows out

And there's nothing to complain about now

'Cause if this was our destiny I'd treasure the fact

And I'd give you whats left of me if I'd held back

But I don't need a soul

No I don't need a soul to hold

Without you I'm still whole

You and life remain beautiful

Departing from the hospital

Ill news shows on your face too well

You're trying not to cough at all it hurts

All options are exhausted all your numbered days are numbered small

I miss you now

I loved you

And I know things could still be worse
