Welcome Home 03:05
There's nothing to be afraid of. I must stand strong. My feet aren't tied down any more; the rope was never that long. Now I'm back here, where the wind isn't warm but the cold on my nose brings back the memories more. Growing up, growing up is something I'm not used to. I'll never get enough of everywhere at once. Take me to another place I bet I'll stay for a while. If I'm off balance, then will pick myself back up. I've seen too many things fail to make it all up. Inside my head, there's a person making my life tough but I can pull through the hell and show I'll never give up. I've got the city in my eyes. I've got the city. If this happens any other way I'll live it up until I'm old. I see a sign it's calling my name it says, welcome home.

Mountains 03:06
I don't, don't want to wait around for something positive but I don't want to break down. Does it feel better? Does it help you sleep at night? It helps me close my eyes and wake up never feeling right. It's so hard. I'm fighting battles on my own. I can't make it without something pushing me through the door cause it's so hard. I'm all alone. Next time I'll try and smile wider then you do. If my pain is your pleasure then why should I be called a fool? Dos it feel better? Does it help you sleep at night? If you walk around with your head high then I swear you're losing your mind. Surrounded by things that are frightening and don't mean that much to me. Surrounded by all the mountains I can't reach and the ledge at the end of the peak. Surrounded by things that are frightening and don't mean that much to me. I never once told myself to believe.

The Ship 03:48
The call is the only thing I can wait for. If this voice could yell loud enough I'd make sure you'd hear the echo. Answer me this, is this pinky promise going to be worth it? I need and answer on how to keep this whole thing going. Making you smile makes me want to smile. 2 months down but 5 more to go. The rock hit bottom but this glass won't break at all. How many days will it take to finally get you home? I'll wait, I suppose. This last week has by far been the hardest. The calendar won't even move an inch. I haven't got the chance to see August. Making you smile makes me want to smile. Being as honest as I can be the patience is hurting me. The distance between the restrictions out of key. I beg myself over and over to breathe. I'll ask my heart once to believe it's not a dream but if this wasn't a dream there'd be nothing to reach.

My Eyes 03:35
I have fallen again but that doesn't surprise me because when something as perfect as you comes along. It's hard to decide all the rights from the wrongs. I fought for the right, but it wasn't enough. Next time I'll tell myself to decide before I jump into something that's not mine. I gave it all for something I only cried for. How easy is it for you to walk away? I should have wrote a chorus about love and made a song of who you're dreaming of but tonight I'm not just anyone. I could have been your number one. I'll give everything. I'll take all of my time and stare at the clock to see how fast it can change. I'll fight for the morning where you wake me up and tell me everything was as simple as this dream seems. I should have wrote a chorus about love and made a song of who you're dreaming of but tonight I'm not just anyone. I could have been your number one. If tomorrow you can realize, I am worth more then just those butterflies. When someone tels you how to live your life, it isn't worth it in my eyes. If you runaway I'll find a million things to say. Just give me one more day to get you back here with me.
5.
Too many years have gone by. I made a name for myself and I sat back and tried to live a whole new life. I didn't realize that it would take time but I've already crossed the line. I can't see myself turning back anymore so I am taking what's mine and running as fast as I can until I soar through the sky. I know how it goes after the sun's supposed to set. I'd lay down under the stars reminiscing through all of my regrets. If this is what panic feels like call me in. It's feeling good and I can't learn how to shut my mouth, it' okay I'll scream out loud. I've already won a war. I fought harder then anyone ever could. When I opened this new door as calm as I could I grabbed my guitar and flew further. You'll never see me step down. I'm standing as tall as I can without touching the ground. You'll never see me break down cause I've got it all in my hands. You'll never see me step down.
