lyrics

DAYS SPENT WRITING IN A HAZE
SPENT PINING FOR A SPACE
TO LAY MY HEAD AND DROWN THE LIGHT
AND CUT ALL TIES JUST FOR THE NIGHT

WHEN DOES THE TIME COME FOR US TO SAY
THAT IT’S NOT WORTH IT, AND FALL AWAY?

I CAN'T STAND THE BOREDOM, THE WASTED TIME
‘CAUSE MINE SEEMS TO ADD UP TO A LIFETIME
SO TAKE MY SIGHT
TAPE MY EYES CLOSED
I DON'T WANT TO SEE IN FADING LIGHT
THIS FACE GROWS OLD
SO TAKE MY SIGHT

THE THINGS WE DO TO MAKE OURSELVES ALONE
I DIG MYSELF A HOLE
WITH SIDES CUT DEEP INTO THE SOIL
THE THINGS WE DO TO MAKE OURSELVES ALONE
I DIG MYSELF A HOLE

WE CAN'T GO BACK TO THE WAY THINGS WERE
BEFORE WE FELL APART, GOT HURT
I KNOW YOU CAN'T STAND TO HEAR ME
WHEN I WASTE OUR TIME NOT MOVING ON

Never Weaken
by etcha

The official line is "5 tracks of rockin’ out, sing-a-long pop-punk that represent the band at their best" and we can't really argue with that. Starters
