Intro 00:59

i am the empty shell. stuck outside your doorway, hearing every word you dare say. and i've had about enough drinks to last a lifetime but its just not enough. so well pour some more rounds, and ill drink myself into the ground. and as i start to choke, as the water fills up my throat. i know, i am. dying down here at the bottom of this ocean watching you as you sit up above me and say its getting colder and i'm getting older, i couldn't wait here forever for you, your not who you were when. when i knew you. you wouldn't let, some apparition from your past convince that the fears you harbor only help make up your past. cause when your alone, deep down you know im on my own, all alone. and it shows how much i've grown bitter and cold. dying down here at the bottom of this ocean watching you laughing and dancing around me as you sing "yeah it got colder, and i got older, i couldn't wait here forever for you." your not who you were when. when you decide to come up for some air, i think you'll find that there's no one there. and you'll just die in that trench where i left you drowning.

baby how can i feel what i feel, when my world isn't real. and how could you think, that hurting me is gonna make it any better. do i not see greens and blues? cut off my arms do i not bleed all over you? cause my world is as real as you. when i'm older and gray, wiser still than yesterday. dreaming of those good old days, and hating how they went away. but i live my life for today, loving every breath that i take. so that i, don't waste away.

In Love 02:52
if we work hard, and we try hard, and we fight for what we love. than we're not just fools in love. god i love you, yes love you, forever if i could but you feel we're no good. are you always so quick to, kick me when i'm down? does it make you feel proud. but i love you, yes love you, forever if i could. but maybe we're no good. when did decide to burst every wound i have? is that really all you had. if we work hard, and we try hard and we fight for what we love. am i just a fool in love? i'm just a fool in love.

Kyle's Song 02:28
you held strong for nine long years your strength inspires mine you finally made it home far too quickly, you left us you held strong for nine long years your strength inspires mine you finally made it home

each empty page like centuries. they may be blank, there still history. from the brain out through the hands into every open ear. from the brain out through the hands the words just disappeared. each empty page like centuries. they may be blank, they're still history. and in the back of every mind there sits a fear that lives inside that we are weak. and in the back of every mind there lives a fear that sits inside that we've already peaked. each empty page like centuries. they may be blank, they're still history. from the brain out through the hands into every open ear from the brain out through the hands the words just disappeared. each empty page like centuries. they may be blank, they're still history. and in the back of every mind there sits a fear that lives inside that we are weak. and in the back of every mind there lives a fear that sits inside that we've already peaked. each empty page; we've already peaked.
