Lyrics:

All my life I’ve been my favorite enemy
Knocked myself out with my own anxiety 
And I was breaking the gate
Always running late
Swimming in a hole; all those nights put a weight on me
(Didn’t need it)
Gave myself these bruised and blacked out eyes before
Tried to reach my high, but only cracked the floor
Couldn’t stand alone
Skin with no bones
Walking on a piece of a broken memory

Gotta stop myself from
Going backwards
Going backwards
Why didn’t I try doing that before?

I don’t wanna go on back 
Four corners in the ropes, and I got no shade
Punch a hole in this heart attack 
I don’t wanna be that way
Gotta tell myself, “relax”
Running, but I’m going backwards 
Backwards
Oh
Handling all these stacks
Twelve rounds and the timer’s coming at me
Gotta keep my brain intact
I don’t wanna feel halfway
Gotta let myself relax
Running, but I’m going backwards 
Backwards
(Oh)

Used to think that I was better on my own
Your lips met mine, and now your face is my home
Couldn’t date a friend
I was wrong and then
Knock on the door
It was like you were sent for me
(And I need it)
We close our eyes together; time for me to change
Not only for you, but so we’ll both have better days
Your mouth is my drug
But I know I’m enough
My mind pulls the rug, but it won’t get under me
 
Gotta stop myself from
Going backwards
Going backwards
Why didn’t I try doing that before?

I don’t wanna go on back 
Four corners in the ropes, and I got no shade
Punch a hole in this heart attack 
I don’t wanna be that way
Gotta tell myself, “relax”
Running, but I’m going backwards 
Backwards
Oh
Handling all these stacks
Twelve rounds and the timer’s coming at me
Gotta keep my brain intact
I don’t wanna feel halfway
Gotta let myself relax
Running, but I’m going backwards 
Backwards

Handling all these stacks
Twelve rounds and the timer’s coming at me
Gotta keep my brain intact
I don’t wanna feel halfway
Gotta let myself relax
Running, but I’m going backwards 
Backwards

Lyrics:

It's unfortunate that when we feel a stone
We can roll ourselves over 'cause we're uncomfortable
Oh well, the devil makes us sin
But we like it when we're spinning in his grip

Love is like a sin, my love
For the ones that feel it the most
Look at her with her eyes like a flame
She will love you like a fly will never love you again

It's unfortunate that when we feel a stone
We can roll ourselves over when we're uncomfortable
Oh well, the devil makes us sin
But we like it when we're spinning in his grip

Love is like a sin, my love
For the one that feels it the most
Look at her with a smile like a flame
She will love you like a fly will never love you again

Lyrics:

Spiral up
Keep it right
Feet above the ground
Standing from new heights
Steady on a line

Irony 
Show my hand
Let you see it all 
When I wanna hide
Made me realize

That you help yourself to more than you give 
You help yourself to more than you will know
I keep trying to let it go

Still you got me trippin on your wave
Strip me all away
When I see your face 
Losing nights and days
Before you go 
You seem like you got something to say
Letters being sent
Tryna wreck and play
Breaking what we saved
You got me trippin up

(You got me trippin up)
(You got me trippin up)
(You got me trippin up)

Light ‘em up
Keep it tight
Fingers wrapped together 
Ready for a fight
Made me realize 

That you help yourself to more than you give 
You help yourself to more than you will know
I keep trying to let it go

Still you got me trippin on your wave
Strip me all away
When I see your face 
Losing nights and days
Before you go 
You seem like you got something to say
Letters being sent
Tryna wreck and play
Breaking what we saved
You got me trippin up

Still you got me trippin on your
Still you got me trippin on your wave
(You got me trippin up)
Still you got me trippin on your 
Still you got me trippin on your wave
Your wave

Still you got me trippin on your wave
Strip me all away
When I see your face 
Losing nights and days
Before you go 
You seem like you got something to say
Letters being sent
Tryna wreck and play
Breaking what we saved
You got me trippin up

You got me trippin up

Lyrics:

You want me to stay
Do things your way
I'm starting clean

Mountains, cascades
Kissed by the rain
Leaving for the green

You gotta let go
You gotta let go
You gotta let go
For the good of it all

You gotta let go of this
You gotta let go
Gotta let go of this
You gotta let go
And the chips are falling
And the chips are falling
And the chips are falling

You gotta let go of this
You gotta let go
Gotta let go of this
You gotta let go
And the chips are falling

You gotta let go
You gotta let go
For the good of it all

You want me to stay
Do things your way
I'm starting clean

Lyrics:

Fighters covering a burning coast
Crying over shades of gray

And the waves  
They’re breaking on my shoulders
But I wait
I’ll walk along the water 

Looking inside
Knowing we are the same
If you bleed, I’m bleeding, too 
Making the climb 
Over embers and flames
When you need me, I’ll see it through
Clearing out the smoke
Pushing to the shore 
Starting up again today
Clearing out the smoke
Pushing to the shore 
Starting up again today

Sifting through remains of what we knew
Drifting far away to sea

And the waves  
They’re breaking on my shoulders
But I wait
I’ll walk along the water 

Looking inside
Knowing we are the same
If you bleed, I’m bleeding, too 
Making the climb 
Over embers and flames
When you need me, I’ll see it through
Clearing out the smoke
Pushing to the shore 
Starting up again today
Clearing out the smoke
Pushing to the shore 
Starting up again today

Prismatic skyline
Claims the fire 
Taking on the karma
I will hold you
Keep me close and
Let me bring you higher 
Prismatic skyline
Claims the fire 
Taking on the karma
I will hold you
Keep me close and
Let me bring you higher

Lyrics:

Pour a little water over my head 
Gonna sanctify all the things I said
You can lay with me, but I own this bed
Keeping out the noise; gonna leave what’s real
Common sense tellin' me, "There’s no time to kill"
Try to numb myself, but I feel it still 

Make me want it
Bring me to my feet again 
Lead me to an ecstasy
Purify me
Elevate my being
Don’t let heaven close from me

Roll up, roll up
Give it to me straight or
Get out, get out
Just give it to me straight
Hold up, hold up, will you hold up, hold up?
Wanna give it to me, give it to me
You gonna roll up, roll up
Got me in a state
Don’t backup, backup
Keep me in a state
Hold up, hold up, will you hold up, hold up?
Wanna give it to me, give it to me

Take a little air to clear my brain after 
Cuttin’ through the streets on a black Mustang
Leave it alone, unless your head’s in the game

Make me want it
Bring me to my feet again 
Lead me to an ecstasy
Can you
Purify me?
Elevate my being
Don’t let heaven close from me

Roll up, roll up
Give it to me straight or
Get out, get out
Just give it to me straight
Hold up, hold up, will you hold up, hold up?
Wanna give it to me, give it to me
You gonna roll up, roll up
Got me in a state
Don’t backup, backup
Keep me in a state
Hold up, hold up, will you hold up, hold up?
Wanna give it to me, give it to me

Get out, get out
Get out, get out
Get out, get out

Purify me
Elevate my being
Don’t let heaven close from me
