Take me back from where we came
The police have gone away
All of the things that the singer just said
Finding its way to the back of your head
Always remember to turn down the lights
No need to keep it so bright
Was it all that she wanted to leave
Just please say no but it's like a disease
Just please say no oh oh
Just please say no
So we can go
Take me back from where we came
The police have gone away
All of the things that the people have said
Finding its way to the back of your head
Always remember to turn down the lights
No need to keep it so bright
Chorus
Now she hates me
Cuz I don't say
All the things that
That she wants said
It's never easy
It's not my make up
Just know I'm probably thinking all of the same

I'm trying to forget the way you looked when we walked out that room
I'm trying to remember the way you looked when you came inside
of our homes and our lives
I'm trying to forget the way you looked when you got sick
it seems so hard to do now it happens so God damn quick
1st you're here and now you're gone
never got the chance to say
I'm sorry
I'm sorry we couldn't save you
I'd Ike to that whatever made it possible
To give you life
Wherever you are Tonight
Its time for
The time now to remember
How you made it better
When you came into our lives
Wherever you are Tonight
V2
I'm trying to forget the way you looked when we said goodbye
I'm trying to remember the friends you'll make on the other side
It's not Good bye
it's just good night
Never had the chance to say
Chorus
Outro
Wherever you are Tonight
We'll celebrate your life
You came and were loved and you gave ya you gave it right back

Something From Nothing

Every morning raise my head
waiting for the news to say
we could pile up in a room
just to sing again
You could take my temperature
in the car or at the door
these trusty cords will make it feel
like it's all a dream
Are you out there
and are you listening
cuz we're screaming out in the abyss
And we've got more
Isn't that something
left here with nothing
would you believe it's all we had
gotta take Nothing
and turn it to something
using the songs to reconnect
Every night we go to bed
Hoping that the world ain't dead
So we can pile up in a room
Just to press record
We can scream these messages
Out into this microphone
Messages in 0's and 1's
that we sing along
Pre chorus
Chorus
Outro
I figured out
and there's no doubt
We're picking up the pieces and we could use a soundtrack to clean this mess we've made

Voices Of The Dead

Think of all the time you wasted
Trading shots when they disagree
So young and full of answers
Hey everybody just look at me
No longer will I make this hard for me
No longer will I waste my time
Was it everything that you
Thought that it was gonna be
Back when everybody told you
be all that you can be
Think of all the leaves that've fallen
Covers ground beneath your feet
But it's just a small distraction
Cuz you could walk to where you see
No longer will I make this hard for me
No longer will I waste my time
Was it everything that you
Thought that it was gonna be
Back when everybody told you
be all that you can be
And Was the ringing in your head
just the voices of the dead
That don't help anyone
that linger in this place
To live to laugh
Go through it all
Be glad be sad
Survive the fall
And after all
You live to lean
To embrace it all
Was it everything that you
Thought that it was gonna be
Back when everybody told you
be all that you can be
And Was the ringing in your head
just the voices of the dead
That don't help anyone
that linger in this place
