Division 03:45
You chose to surrender the best thing that's happened to you What were you missing? Were you just tripping? Running away from your fear was the best you could do You made this decision You chose our division And I have no regrets I wish you the very best In all that you do Congratulations Now you are free You have earned your degree Yeah, you graduated This is your last separation from me There'll be no more trying again No more coming back No more forgiving you No more thinking that somehow the sum will be different By using Division Half of your friends would attend before they ever knew Why they are going To this party I'm throwing They would be thinking that I would be pleading to you To get back together Well how about never? You're gonna miss me, bad So funny I had to laugh You did this to you Yeah you did Congratulations Now you are free You have earned your degree Yeah, you graduated This is your last separation from me There'll be no more trying again No more coming back No more forgiving you No more thinking that somehow the sum will be different By using Division Congratulations You've graduated You finally got your degree in your last separation from me Congratulations You've graduated To being alone by yourself Let me throw you a party, farewell Farewell, farewell, farewell, farewell well well well ...

Karma 04:25
Keep it simple Keep it clean Keep it short Keep it free Don't make it hard to understand s'not like I'm dumb or hard at head you will see boy that it really didn't matter More than sad, I'm annoyed that our little play just shattered cause I am a sucker for a cheesy happy ending but you're too condescending for this to be offending I know that I deserved it and I'm just being honest I will not wallow in self pity because in truth, I'm almost any-thing from The victim here, Have I made myself clear It hurts, but I know that karma doesn't care at all. The person I am, the individual.. It isn't strong enough—I know I'm not invincible but I know that it's okay, I know that it's alright at least I know I'm strong enough to make it out alive I know, cause I tried. Keep it simple Keep it clean Keep it real save a tree be a rock star date a model train a walrus learn to grovel bu y a rat trap go to Boston eat a bread roll hiccup often Do the moon walk sleep a week I don't care as long as you don't lie to me it's too late for me to want to know the specifics its true hate's not what fuels my hard decision Some where in my heart, I wish this wasn't all the case if I could make you love and stay with me I'd do it in a day. I'm not the victim here, have I made myself clear? It hurts, but I know that karma doesn't care at all. The person I am, the individual Isn't strong enough—I know I'm not invincible but I know that it's okay, I know that it's alright at least I know I'm strong enough to make it out alive I know that I tried. I know I can't see you anymore but I can't help thinking about you boy I know you won't ever understand so Leave me or don't let go of my hand Karma has got me I'm down and I'm out Karma has got me inside and out Karma has got me out of my mind Karma has got to make it's shrine

Idle Hands 03:40
So we sing and we pray and we preach and we say how things were way back when even though way back then Even now don't believe in the things that I see because here here and now you should stop take a bow Ooooo Take a bow, ooooo So I wander the streets placing both of my feet where I think they should be constricted when I'm free So I gaze at the sky when I laugh wonder why I'm still here in this place when I don't want to stay Oooooh When I don't want to stay, ooooo I breathe in and I choke on the falsehoods the world has embedded on me I'm waiting for the time when someone can love me for beyond what they see and I knew that this was the last time you'd ever say that you loved me But I drew one last breath before you left me for my best friend oo baby mm And I don't want to sing on lost love when clearly it's his loss even still I stay up hoping he'll change his mind call me back but I know it's a fact that she's better for him so I stay at a distance Ooooo At a distance, oooo So I stare at the wall nothing plays nothing falls yet somehow it is life it is here in this knife No, that's wrong it's not true even if I love you I'm not dumb enough for this so I'll call where my heart's always been Ooooo Where my heart's always been, oooo I breathe in and I choke on the falsehoods the world has embedded on me I'm waiting for the time when someone can love me for beyond what they see and I know that this was the last time you'd ever say that you loved me But I drew one last breath before you left me for my best friend oo baby Idle hands prone to sin or whatever the bible says So I take my guitar and I scream and I charge to nowhere in particular with no one cause he's with her I'm not fine but I'll be okay I'm strong enough to live another day. To live another day

Sleep 03:21
One dollar, two dollars there are five buyers bidding at my heart without realizing it isn't up for sale One lady, two ladies yelling at my doorstep like it's fucking art without realizing I'm not really there Everything seems darker bleaker, harder too see and I haven't a flashlight, nor the batteries to power it with one dollar, two quarters can I buy back an inch of my old happiness? 'Cause currently, I don't really own shit So I just sleep to kill the time mama don't weep I swear that I'm fine let me just sleep sleep the dark away so that there can come a day when I want to stay awake Cue lights, cue sing I'm acting, faking all throughout the day because saying how I feel doesn't get me anywhere Pop quiz? F me wait until the bell rings loosen up these chains to pretend life is fair flat iron burns me V-Neck, Skinny jeans can't say portray how I'm feeling but I'm too damn lazy to do much else Some how maybe for a dollar fifty the yellow won't dull and instead with blind me then I won't need your help So I just sleep to kill the time mama don't weep I swear that I'm fine let me just sleep sleep the dark away so that there can come a day when I want to stay awake Dear Let me make one thing perfectly clear I'm not damaged beyond repair 'cause when I breathe in the air I remember I remember how It felt to see faces in a crowd when conviction was so easily found when I could hear the sound past December I remember sleep to kill the time mama don't weep I swear that I'm fine let me just sleep sleep the dark away so that there can come a day when I want to stay awake
8.
The Other 04:49
We talk about nothing and everything laughing in harmony, arguing harmlessly We smile about something the phone rings you pick up cause its me and your teeth are gleaming We sing about well almost anything You feel or I feel relates to our thinking We feel the honesty honestly proceeds the hours on nothing but flowers ooooooooo I feel at home just being around you ooooooooo and it feels like you can see right through me ooooooooo I feel like home can't exist without you ooooooooo and it feels like maybe I'm not crazy Tell me what's on your mind You're not a burden or bother Cry on my shoulder in the night even if I'm not your mother the bond we share can't be put into words because it's limitless; only felt, and not heard But when I look at you The fire keeps dancing, red and blue I like to think I'm right on everything that life can throw at us and so you shake your head your cranium stadium livelihood understood that sometimes I forget I'm not dead and you lack all conviction in all jurisdictions It's hard to get you out of bed and when you pull me lovingly down in the sheets and we're clinging like it's the last moment oooooooo I feel so strong just being around you oooooooo It feels like I got to know you you are oooooooo I feel like nobody knows me better oooooooo to pick up the pieces of my mangled heart Tell me what's on your mind You're not a burden or bother Cry on my shoulder in the night even if I'm not your mother the bond we share can't be put into words because it's limitless; only felt, and not heard But when I look at you The fire keeps dancing, from red to blue From red to blue I don't love you like a sister or a brother or a father or a monther but you're not quite my lover you are the other I don't love you like a friend or an idol or a pet what's this feeling that I see what is coming over me it's undefinable; but completely reliable I cannot pretend that I do not feel an attraction but then again, I suppose I am, or I have been acting because this facade that I put on everyday that makes it seem like I'm just when I'm more than okay when every time I seem I'm glowing inside unready to hide and glide when really I'm on top of my "I land" where only you and I fully exist in this magical bliss I reminisce Tell me what's on your mind You're not a burden or bother Cry on my shoulder in the night even if I'm not your mother the bond we share can't be put into words because it's limitless; only felt, and not heard But when I look at you The fire keeps dancing Tell me what's on your mind Tell me what's on your mind Tell me what's on your mind Tell me what's on your mind

We're alive 02:19
Why are we all so naturally vicious and tear each other down? why did you have to hassle that girl when she never even made a sound? did you have to pick on that boy when didn’t do a thing to you? why does the world hate what's different when the world is different too? and there's a girl who's bigger than other girls trying to kill herself and there's a boy who likes other boys who thinks he's going to hell there's an insult written on a bathroom wall that makes everyone sit in the stall and crawl, singing why me? why me? Why me? Why me? Why don't we all let go and remember what it's like to be alone pick up your fallen comrade, and stay with him for awhile singing ooooh please smile Because to night we're alive and it's alright we're alive

Hajile 03:01
We could make a fountain of beauty just by being We could make a river of music just by singing We could make a picture of promise just by joking we could make a dinner from heaven just by loving You can make me smile a shit-ton just by being You can make me leave all my crummy past behind me You can make me want to remember how to let go You can make me want you by playing the piano at the end of the day, I'll be there for you when you need it at the end of the week, I'll still want you every minute at the end of the year, I'll be here, waiting by the wall for you to notice me just to notice me at all We could make the wind blow by looking at each other We could make the sun know when to begin the summer We could make the world stop just by holding hands We could make ice hot by finding a romance You can make my knees weak just by looking my way You can make my heart beat really fast by saying “hey” You could make my world spin by saying I've got talent You could make my hurt end by asking me to dance at the end of the day, I'll be there for you when you need it at the end of the week, I'll still want you every minute at the end of the year, I'll be here, waiting by the wall for you to notice me just to notice me at all you're so wonderful at everything you do and it inspires me requires that my music follow through to the standards you set, while I know in my head I could never really measure up to you So I drown wile surrounded by the thoughts of not knowing what you think of me even though you can't think much when we don't talk enough my love but at the end of the day I'll be there for you when you need it at the end of the week, I'll still want you every minute at the end of the year, I'll be here, waiting by the wall for you to notice me just to notice me at all

about

This was my first "Official" Album, which while I don't pride it on be particularly musically mind boggling, every song was an emotion that I felt, and they follow the progression of an up, down, and back up again couple of months during 2011.
