Dylan's Song 03:31
Take a step back And look in the mirror to see what you've become I can't tell which one is the real you From everything that you made up All I know is I hate it And these memories, they leave me jaded When the sun doesn't rise You'll always be my sunshine My mind finds a way to break but never bend You used to put a smile on my face But now it tears me up It's not the same I remember when the days were so much longer But felt so much shorter Everything was going great until you messed it up I don't need you in my life But I must admit you cross my mind from time to time When the sun doesn't rise You'll always be my sunshine My mind finds a way to break but never bend You used to put a smile on my face But now it tears me up It's not the same It's not the same (Bridge) When the sun doesn't rise You'll always be my sunshine My mind finds a way to break but never bend You used to put a smile on my face But now it tears me up It's not the same It's not the same

That's Easy 02:57
I need to take a breath of air to clear my head 'Cause all this nonsense that you're telling me Is making this all worse instead You say you want it all but you don't try You just converse with the sidelines Just stick to the guidelines It's not that easy is it 'cause you can't do that You don't look cool with you're twisted cap and All jokes aside, you're pride won't make it through alive So put the strings down Pick your bags up Take a step back It's not your close up I think you should get a clue You stole a mark not meant for you And followed through with interfering And not hearing that the crowd's not cheering for you (You said that you wanted this) All bullshit lies that I won't miss And that stupid tattoo on your foot I thought that you should know that It's not that easy is it 'cause you can't do that You don't look cool with you're twisted cap and All jokes aside, you're pride won't make it through alive So put the strings down Pick your bags up Take a step back It's not your close up (Bridge) It's not that easy is it 'cause you can't do that You don't look cool with you're twisted cap and All jokes aside, you're pride won't make it through alive So put the strings down Pick your bags up Take a step back It's not your close up

So please explain to me How I'm the one who's wrong But you don't even know what's going on in my head I would say all that I could say And in the end it didn't matter to you Now we've gone our separate ways So the weather's just a little bit colder Now we're getting just a little bit older But in a perfect world this wouldn't happen And we'd sing "Woah Oh" (Woah Oh) "Woah Oh" You'll never know What it's like to be honest so What do you have to say about it I'd put everything aside for you And I Would kill for another shot 'Cause these words are all that I've got to speak my mind So I hope that you know I wrote this song about you Now it's 4AM And just like every night I'm losing sleep Over and over again If I could sleep I'd dream That we would watch the sunrise or walk through the snow But in the end I see that it's not worth it You'll never know What it's like to be honest so What do you have to say about it I'd put everything aside for you And I Would kill for another shot 'Cause these words are all that I've got to speak my mind So I hope that you know I wrote this song about you (Woah Oh x8) You'll never know what's going on in my head And now there's someone around instead of me To try and make your whole world perfect Now I see you never cared at all You never cared at all (x4)

Stoop Kid 04:21
You used to be so different Then you let yourself get pulled in by the current The current of conformity It's not for the right reasons It's for selfishness and greed Which is wrong in every way Where's your morality Right now is the time To let yourself grow You're holding it all back just let it go You've lost yourself And all your true friends 'Cause you're holding it all back Just let it go I remember when you said That you'd never be the one To do the things you did But you did it anyway You're caught in the undertow But between you and me This isn't okay Right now is the time To let yourself grow You're holding it all back just let it go You've lost yourself And all your true friends 'Cause you're holding it all back Just let it go You can't find a single reason That backs what you say This isn't what life's about Don't live it so cold and grey Like the color of a heart that doesn't know what it wants The weight is getting heavy now you're changing your thoughts So look at the world and open your mind The colors are changing, your world's redefined It's what you could have like a whole new start A better life in which you could take part Right now is the time To let yourself grow You're holding it all back just let it go Right now is the time To let yourself grow You're holding it all back just let it go Right now is the time To let yourself grow You're holding it all back just let it go You've lost yourself And all your true friends 'Cause you're holding it all back Just let it go Just let it go

I'm done with this I never wanted to let you go It's too late for that now I should have learned long ago These mistakes that I make Will be the death of me It seems like everyone has their own way with words And I'm still looking for the answers Even though they're right in front of me I wonder what the feeling is supposed to feel like When everything is how it should be I don't understand why I feel this way Do you feel it too? I need to break away I wrote this off as something I could handle In the end all you did was tear down my walls I never knew what all your words could do It seems like everyone has their own way with words And I'm still looking for the answers Even though they're right in front of me I wonder what the feeling is supposed to feel like When everything is how it should be I don't understand why I feel this way Do you feel it too? I need to break away (Bridge) It seems like everyone has their own way with words (x4)
