Another waste of headspace Got dumb on the tracks Never knew the facts 'til I wised up For years, I been toe to toe with the heavyweights Never thought I'd size up It's got me thinking 'bout the rise up You said no strings attached And now you got me tied up You talking that shit And you're blowing that smoke But your card got declined at the nightclub And every single pointless conversation Is breaking down the walls that kept the demons out I try to find the signs that might reveal The secret to what we're missing But maybe time is all that we need now A blessing in disguise Or just broke and pitiful I don't fuck with these mind games, baby But if one thing's right I saw with my own eyes I know your tricks, don't act so proud I'm moving up while you're slowing down I own it now, you want it now And you can put it down, hey But you're nothing but a waste of headspace Every single pointless conversation Is breaking down the walls that kept the demons out I try to find the signs that might reveal The secret to what we're missing But maybe time is all we need now A blessing in disguise Or just broke and pitiful I don't fuck with these mind games, baby But if one thing's right, I saw with my own eyes Oh yeah, you're a waste of space in my head Hey-hey, you're a waste of space in my head, oh-oh A blessing in disguise Or just broke and pitiful I don't fuck with these mind games, baby But if one thing's right, I saw with my own eyes A blessing in disguise Or just broke and pitiful I don't fuck with these mind games, baby But if one thing's right, I saw with my own eyes Oh yeah, you're a waste of space in my head He-hey, you're a waste of space in my head, oh-oh I try to find the signs that might reveal The secret to what we're missing, oh yeah You're nothing but a waste of headspace Hey-hey, you're a waste of space in my head, oh-oh

You've grown irrational I'm too selfish to let myself flourish Stuck at the bottom, yeah But I'm fine with where my whole world is I'd like to think that my body’s out there somewhere Alive and breathingBut my soul is a race and you envy the pace Of this life I'm leading Be a little stronger in your mind You can hold the weight of time, oh whoa I try making it easy on you What more can I say or do? You only see half of what's there Just hold on, you know me better, better Highway love’s gonna mess me up (Alright, alright) Nights like these when I need your touch (Alright, alright) Kicking it high in the back of my bus (Alright, alright) Thinking 'bout you, while you're thinking 'bout trust I'll be home soon Throwing names and drawing lines Impossible when you mix your jealousy with mine I'm on the phone and you're hating me There's a million bottles and I'm trying to free My head of all this chaos There's a hook, but you don't let me off, no You don't take my word for an answer It's hard to choose from the life I live And the one I love, either way I'll lose I know you're gonna use this against me I'm stuck with the burden, you're stuck with the envy Be a little stronger in your mind You can hold the weight of time (Oh) And if I'm holding you back, let me know What's complicated should be so simple I try making it easy on you What more can I say or do? You only see half of what's there Just hold on, you know me better, better Highway love's gonna mess me up (Alright, alright) Nights like these when I need your touch (Alright, alright) Kicking it high in the back of my bus (Alright, alright) Thinking 'bout you, while you're thinking 'bout trust I'll be home soon Baby love West coast days go by so damn slow Caught up in the star glow West coast days go by so damn slow Caught up in the star glow (Star glow) Your intuition's problematic When I just wanna lose myself In the city of angels I'm thrown I try making it easy on you What more can I say or do? You only see half of what's there Just hold on, you know me better, better Highway love's gonna mess me up (Alright, alright) Nights like these when I need your touch (Alright, alright) Kicking it high in the back of my bus (Alright, alright) Thinking 'bout you, while you're thinking 'bout trust I'll be home soon

Lost and found, I found myself In a hopeful place, in a hopeless state And I crossed the line between what's wrong and right-fully so I gave my dignity to make it on my own Abandonment adopted me When being true to myself did all but set me free Birth giver, tell me how could you give Your offspring to the darkness you've been hiding in I spend my days fighting off my bad luck If these streets could talk, I’d conversate And they'd tell me to stay up Ay sleepwalker, tell me, where have you been? All of my life, I've been trying to fit in I've been talking to the walls Feeling my heart rate, feeling so small This world is a big place And I ain't got nowhere to go, so take me on a roll At my lowest, means hit the ends and I'm so ashamed Sinking further into sorrow and regret I've paved my way through a maze I'll never complete I can't see the sun from how dark it's gotten impossible to dig out I spend my days fighting off my bad luck If these streets could talk, I'd conversate And they'd tell me to stay up Ay sleepwalker, tell me, where have you been? All of my life, I've been trying to fit in I've been talking to the walls Feeling my heart rate, feeling so small This world is a big place And I ain’t got nowhere to go, so take me on a roll I found myself inside a self-created bliss And now I'm more alive than I have ever been I spare no expense Shit, I ain'’t even got none to spend Ay sleepwalker, tell me, where have you been? All of my life Ay sleepwalker, tell me, where have you been? All of my life, I've been trying to fit in I've been talking to the walls Feeling my heart rate, feeling so small This world is a big place And I ain't got nowhere to go, so take me on a roll Ay sleepwalker (Yeah, yeah) Tell me, where have you been? (Take me on a roll) Oh

Living the dream, whoa-oh Living the lifestyle that we want Not a damn thing gonna change me I'll tell 'em where I'm from We're all young and dumb Running wild through the streetlight Like we could fly when the time's right Before you know it'll pass by I'd give anything for a minute back Then it was midnight We were speeding with the top down Disturbing the peace like we ain't got none Our minds were stuck on getting older, but we found out The music dies when you forget how to turn it up loud Living the dream, whoa-oh Living the lifestyle that we want Not a damn thing gonna change me I'll tell 'em where I'm from We’re all young and dumb, hey Living the dream, whoa-oh Living the lifestyle that we want Not a damn thing gonna change me I'll tell 'em where I'm from We’re all young and dumb And throw your hands in the air Go stupid like you just don't care The best part of being young Is when you make a mess you never clean it up Tomorrow's another day We'll be burning rubber on the asphalt Reminiscing all the times we never got caught We got the world at our fingertips now These idle hands only know how to turn it up loud Living the dream, whoa-oh Living the lifestyle that we want Not a damn thing gonna change me I'll tell 'em where I'm from We're all young and dumb, hey Living the dream, whoa-oh Living the lifestyle that we want Not a damn thing gonna change me I'll tell 'em where I'm from We're all young and dumb We were speeding with the top down Disturbing the peace like we ain't got none Our minds were stuck on getting older, but we found out The music dies when you forget how to turn it up loud All we have is the good times And all we need is the moonlight Got the stars in our young eyes Living the dream, whoa-oh Living the lifestyle that we want Not a damn thing gonna change me I'll tell 'em where I'm from We're all young and dumb, hey Living the dream, whoa-oh Living the lifestyle that we want Not a damn thing gonna change me I'll tell 'em where I'm from We're all young and dumb We're all young and dumb, hey We're all young and dumb

Do you ever look back and no one's there? I feel thunder, I won't pretend you're not Shaking up my world No, I, I took you for granted, yeah But now I see, so let me be the man I know I can be I've been changing Can't believe how long that I've been waiting After every single dream has faded I can bring them back to you Heart's done breaking I promise I'm a risk worth taking This time it won't be complicated 'Cause all I want is you We were made to last Do you ever ponder the sparks we had? No explanation, just two madly in love wild cards Playing against the odds No, I, I took you for granted But now I see, so let me be the man I know I can be I've been changing Can't believe how long that I've been waiting After every single dream has faded I can bring them back to you Heart's done breaking I promise I'm a risk worth taking This time it won't be complicated 'Cause all I want is you We were made to last (We were made, we were made to be) We were made to last (We were made, we were made) We were made to last (We were made, we were made to be) We were made to last (We were made, we were made) We were made to last I paid for all my mistakes And I know you'll suffer, all I can say We were made to last (Come back to me) We were made to last (Come back to me) We were made to last (Come back to me) We were made to last (Come back to me) I've been changing Can't believe how long that I’'ve been waiting After every single dream has faded I can bring them back to you Heart's done breaking I promise I'm a risk worth taking This time it won't be complicated 'Cause all I want is you We were made to last We were made to last (We were made, we were made to be) We were made to last (We were made, we were made) We were made to last (We were made, we were made to be) We were made to last (We were made, we were made) We were made to last (We were made, come back to me) We were made to last (We were made, come back to me) We were made to last (We were made, come back to me) We were made to last (We were made, come back to me)

Once I was molded by the cruelest intentions I remember the days, I would justify all the speculation And if you're gonna plant a rose expect some weeds to grow, yeah And if you ever get that far, everyone's a critic of your every move I used to find time to be defined by the public eye Fuck it, I rose above it In a mental prison, searching for my big break I need less attention on all of my mistakes What if I gave it up and they'd stop tripping? All the doing dirt gone in a minute Just my luck, it makes no difference 'Cause all the while I'm blind, I'm doing fine (I'm doing fine) I walked the walk and earned something If you quit the talk, you might fucking learn something I grew up a fucking screw up Got disrespect from the cliques All the kids I fucking knew of I used to find time to be defined by the public eye Fuck it, I rose above it And if you're gonna plant a rose expect some weeds to grow, yeah And if you ever get that far, everyone's a critic of your every move In a mental prison, searching for my big break I need less attention on all of my mistakes What if I gave it up and they'd stop tripping? All the doing dirt gone in a minute Just my luck, it makes no difference 'Cause all the while I’m blind, I'm doing fine Success is a two-way street, yeah But you never wanna meet halfway So we can share this victory When I said success I meant love Through all of the hate, I must've forgot what it was Trying my best to be impartial to the bullshit But nowadays love is blind I'd like to think we doing fine I fell victim and I caved in to a flawed perspective Had it stuck in my mind, tried hard to cut the ties I fell victim to what I bet the whole world was concerned with You'll never know what it's like Unless I gave it up and they stop tripping All the doing dirt gone in a minute Just my luck, it makes no difference 'Cause all the while I'm blind What if I gave it up and they'd stop bitching? All the doing dirt gone in a minute Just my luck, it makes no difference 'Cause all the while I'm blind, I'm doing fine Yeah, We doing just fine I'm doing fine You fucking puss'

Hands up! Easily temperamental, dangerously equipped Impossibly avoidable by proving their contempt Bastardizing the justice and living above the law Black and blue don't get along, blue just want 'em dead and gone Empty your clips on the victim And then you look the other way Your nation will crumble And you'll just look the other way Got a hood rat and the alley cat heard The city got a kid hesitating to leave work At the right time in the wrong place got served An extendo, not a miranda head first Get down, already knocked out face on the ground We're at war with the ones who protect and serve Empty your clips on the victim And then you look the other way Minorities perish And even though he got his hands up Caged like animals Wound up and released with their badges Brutalize our streets, savages How many have to die To put an end to crooked swine? And you just look the other way Empty your clips on the victim And then you look the other way Your nation will crumble And you just look the other way They will not fear the system anymore They will not cower like they did before This cannot be ignored The machine will not hold us down

Hopeless, just a kid with a craving To make memories with my father It's taken a lifetime to chase 'em That's why I seem to reserve this space in my head For the grudges of all the nights you didn't tuck us into bed Never showing up to my games Never taking us to arcades Seems like nothing has changed When you don't show up for my shows But straight up wait 'til the day of To tell me that you can't make it So I hit the stage and it's raining I'm a man, no thanks to you, Dad You're so quick to move on What about the ones you left behind? How am I supposed to be strong When you're the weak one? I've had so much I could say to you But you'll never get the chance to know me It's all I've ever asked for And I've had this craving to be close to you But you'll never get the chance to know me It's all I've asked for Selfless, a mother who wouldn't eat Just so we could have the money to keep up the same routines She got a new job, and a new house And a new life and a new love So next time you call, we probably won't pick up, no I see visions of a perfect family And what the fuck that even means Then I see the way you sacrifice everything For everyone except me You're so quick to move on What about the ones you left behind? How am I supposed to be strong You're the weak one? I've had so much I could say to you But you'll never get the chance to know me It's all I've ever asked for And I've had this craving to be close to you But you'll never get the chance to know me It's all I've asked for Tell me 'bout how you're so damn proud I know you love me, but you gotta leave now Nah, you don't care about us Tell me how the hell you sleep at night I hope your new life is worth the sacrifice You don't care bout us But I know someone who does I know someone who does I have so much I could say to you But you'll never get the chance to know me It's all I've ever asked for And I've had this craving to be close to you But you'll never get the chance to know me It's all I've asked for But I know someone who does But I know someone who does Got a new job, and a new house And a new life and a new love Got a new house, and a new job And a new life and a new love Got a new love, new love New love, new love, oh-oh

Somehow I always knew I'd bite the curb out, spills the proof The letter in your pocket, now I can't escape the truth Surprises so violent, stop with the silence Who is she to you? Tell me why, tell me why my whole world's starting to shake 'Cause ain't nobody ever tell you what it feels like When you're 'bout to break I get nervous, tell me what's her name I see a lot of missed calls and now I'm going off Don't tell me it's okay A storm is swallowing this interstate When it rains, it pours and the pain is coming in waves Stay surfaced, love can't hold you down So I will drive Slow me down, I'm burning out of control So far from heaven now (Pull me back) Slow me down, it's like you've stolen my soul So far from heaven now I can't stand that streetlight, I'm rolling out of bed Again, I belong to the night, I'm a mess Pull me over, I can't forget her name Or my urge to put this barrel to your face This storm is swallowing my sanity And all our memories are tainted with her cheap perfume 18 years thrown away in a day Somebody stop me now before I get to you Slow me down, I'm burning out of control So far from heaven now (Pull me back) Slow me down, it's like you've stolen my soul So far from heaven now My son, I gotta thank you for calling Not sure who I would be if you stopped looking out for me (You stopped looking out for me) Somehow I always knew Let me know when I need to Slow you down, you're burning out of control So far from heaven now Slow me down, I'm burning out of control So far from heaven now (Pull me back) Slow me down, it's like you’ve stolen my soul So far from heaven now And you've got to slow me down, I'm burning out of control So far from heaven now (Pull me back) Slow me down, it's like you've stolen my soul So far from heaven now
