MY TICKET HOME LYRICS

1. Surroundings

This life wont be another failed attempt, a life wasted.
This wont be left to chance.
I've found, a message, a meaning.
This is something to stand for.
Faith is the message, the meaning, the answer.

As we live together, we fall too hard,
forgetting our actions have consequences.
Watching our lives passing by
as we look to our neighbors for guidance.

There is no greater truth,
No finer example of the truth.
He is our anchor.
I cannot stand alone
but maybe I can make a difference in this world.

Will you make a difference?
Can you just stand by and watch this happen?

2. Desertion

(Cast off these crutches and leave behind it all.)

These diseases, will tear us apart one by one.
It seems this storm will never pass.
It feels like this will never pass.
These conditions we embrace will start the engines of decay.
Cast off these crutches and leave behind it all.

The clock is ticking now.
We watch as time passes by.
I cant believe we didn't see this coming.
The pace is quickening.
This fight will swallow us alive.

Can we all stand by as all these years rot away?
I feel shame in the wasted potential.
How can we turn away?
We never learn.
How long will this take?

The clock is ticking now.
We watch as time passes by.
I cant believe we didn't see this coming.
The pace is quickening.
This fight will swallow us alive.

Now embrace the end.
If only we did not desert him.

3. Refuge In Purpose

Where has all of your time
been spent, been wasted
if you don't know the reason?

If only we could look past the surface
to end the cycle spinning over and over.
If only we could look to our neighbor,
we will all be closer to him.

We cannot relieve
this strain, this tension,
of unbearable routine.

Why, why don't I ever feel complete
When I know it's all privilege?
We have no rights.
We have nothing.
We have nothing.

If only we could look past the surface
to end the cycle spinning over and over.
If only we could look to our neighbor,
we will all be closer to him.

Are you listening?
Do you understand?

Are you listening?
I am talking to you.
Are you listening?
Are you listening?

4. In Regret

In times of need we seem to find ourselves alone
Maybe the day will come, when the ground that we stand upon, stand upon

Is gone, and then you'll finally see exactly how it feels
To lose everything we had

I can't believe I ever beared
Your burden for so long
Everything that I went through, that I went through for you

I can't believe I ever cared
But now I'm moving on
Cause everything we thought we had is gone, everything we had is gone.

(I bet you thought) This dream would never come to an end,
I've stripped away all the lies
And now I'm removing the dead branches.
Day by day I failed, I failed, to see. The. Truth.

I can't believe I ever beared
Your burden for so long
Everything that I went through, that I went through for you

I can't believe I ever cared
But now I'm moving on
Cause everything we thought we had is gone, everything we had is gone.

I, I created the problem
It seems that I, I created the problem
I, I created the problem

Don't even apologize, the word sorry means nothing in your mouth
Don't even apologize, because, your words mean nothing to me now.

All that you'll ever be is a pathetic excuse
And I won't waste a moment missing you.

5. Half Hearted

Some things are better left unsaid.
This is the sound of silence.
You should learn to shut your mouth.

This is where you walked away.
The trust we once had only goes so far.
Where have your decisions left you?
There are no excuses.
You should have known.
Was it all worth it?
Take a look around.
Take a look at yourself.

You can only run from yourself for so long.
Maybe one day you'll change.
Maybe one day you'll find the truth
Because I promise you'll find nothing but regret from me.

Tell me, how do the lies taste in your mouth when you speak?
And how does it feel when they crumble beneath your feet?
Are you ashamed to know that we will go on without you.
You walked away from this, and now that you're gone we'll be better off.
Your selfishness has left you with nothing.

6. Dead Weight

[feat. Caleb Shomo of Attack Attack!]

Every day is a new day, an opportunity to love like never before.
Open up your mind and see that we are surrounded by perfection.
Take a second, close your eyes, and think about who you truly are.

Disregard all your flaws and prepare for conclusion.
We are all ungrateful, complaining to ourselves.
We crawl out from beneath insecurity.
I hate this process.

Realize, take a second.
What is it that you live for?
The truth will collide into your mind's vacant memory.
What is it that you live for?
Trace back these lines.

Collecting light from the furthest corners shows the darkness inside us all.
[Caleb:] (One day our potential will sink, collecting like dust on the ocean floor.)
It's leading us in circles.
It's leading us in endless circles.
Abandon fear and bathe in love.

Realize, take a second.
What is it that you live for?
The truth will collide into your mind's vacant memory.
What is it that you live for?
Trace back these lines.
[x2]

7. The Opportunity To Be

You've chosen your path
But when you look back
Your empty trail won't be there to guide you
Just open your eyes
And see what you've left behind
All that's left inside you

Turn around, there's nothing left to see
There's nothing left for you and me
Go on your shallow ways
Turn around, there's nothing left to see
There's nothing left for you or me
You chose this so go

You chose this so go
You chose this so go

You can't hold back the lies
There's no sign of slowing down
Your lies they can't hold water
You're flooding this town
I can't hold back my eyes
Watching you lay on the ground
I can't believe the lies
That flooded this whole town

Turn around, there's nothing left to see
There's nothing left for you and me
Go on your shallow ways
Turn around, there's nothing left to see
There's nothing left for you or me
You chose this so go

Turn around, there's nothing left to see
There's nothing left for you and me
Go on your shallow ways
Turn around, there's nothing left to see
There's nothing left for you or me
You chose this so go

You chose this so go
You chose this so go
