I'm the oldest I've ever been I don't know how to feel about this But I guess it counts for somethin' A proud achievement on my list Hi, you might be wondering what all this is for Well, just let me tell you about it I will never claim to have the answers My experience ain't a monolith The deepest lows of this journey Are merely brush strokes for the art Carry on! (on, woo) Carry on! (on, woo) Carry on! (on, woo) Carry on! (on, oh oh) I'm the youngest I can ever be There's so much more in this world to see But I guess I gotta be a part of it, huh I'm certain that it's worth the risk High above the clouds, a joy through the floor Fake it 'til they say that you made it That guise of good advice sure hides one spoiled core Stay true to yourself, make them commit The deep end struggles may get stormy But we can scream louder with somebody The deepest lows of this journey Are merely fresh blood for my heart Carry on! I was always told to have the answers I would just not worry about it Songs are my escape, in time you'll find yours There's only so much in my lyrics (Carry on!) Carry on! (on, woo) Carry on! (on, woo) Carry on! (on, woo) Carry on! (on, woo) Carry on! (on, woo) (Here we go)

It was a secret to everybody Even to her for the longest time But her frame is hers to embody It ain't too late for one to reach their prime She's out tonight Her parents aren't in sight It's time for this ticket to ride Inside out tonight This seed with all its might Is blooming before your very eyes She's got the groove She's got the groove She's got the groove Tonight, tonight, tonight, haa, haa Tonight, tonight, tonight, haa, haa Turned, have they, for a change The tables, her favor And as the needle plays her song She forgets her trouble and plays along The night has yet to feel long She's out tonight Her parents aren't in sight This dancefloor's the secret to hide Inside out tonight Her good friends alongside With them around we don't need no allies She's got the groove She's got the groove She's got the groove Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight She's got the groove She's got the groove She's got the groove (You got the groove, baby) Tonight, tonight, tonight, haa, haa

I... don't know what's going on with me... Can anyone offer a helping hand, Or am I really alone? I... feel like I'm dragging you with me; You struggle your way out of the quicksand, But I sink in like a stone... Is it too much to ask for your time? Sorry that it's your mind I begrime. Okay! Here we go! And alas, feeling so done Will pin you oh-so down; Who's gonna help me get above the ground? And at last, fail and you're gone While I'm about to drown; Who's gonna help me get up off the ground? Why... why don't you run with the hunted? Do you really look down on the wounded? Look who's rotten to the bone. Impaled on the field, what a sight to behold Afar from your kingdom of gold, But we're bringing the fire, So enjoy your paper throne. You trivialize our change of clime; No this ain't just a pastime, But sorry that it's your mind I had to begrime. Here we go again! And alas, feeling so done Will pin you oh-so down; Who's gonna help me get above the ground? And at last, fail and you're gone While I'm about to drown; Who's gonna help me get up off the ground? It's so damn hard to get windy sails, my days are all grayscale, Sickly synapses flee scot free while my sense of self's health pays bail! They tell me don't overthink, but that's harder than they think! The tyrant up top who tinkered with my temples must think their shit don't stink! Hippies preach the peace isn't pills but oats, yogurt and yoga; That attitude's all well and good when your ennui ain't flowin' over! But I guess should just drink in the morning dew and chew on the rising sun... ...Psyche! That's easier said than done when the good run's no longer fun! Every day I wake up just to lie right back down. Bed feelin' like a casket for this dusty dude in a clown crown; I'd stop and smell the roses but they're dead! (Blargh!) Well stuffed, snuffed and steadily bled red by the wealth of well-fed feds! How the hell do I motivate when facing hate to shift my fate into a worthy one When it's so much easier to embrace escape in the happiness of a warm gun?! But I'll find a way and rise above it just like I've always managed to: Give this plague the middle finger as I kick through the fog like kung fu! (I'm... not doing so well...) (Not doing so well...) (Not doing well...) (I'm... not doing so well...) (I'm not doing well.) (But you know what?) (I'll fight on.) (I'll forge ahead!) (I'll keep pushing!) (I'll fight on!) (I will fight on!) And alas, feeling so done, Will pin you oh-so down; Who's gonna help you get up off the ground?! And at last, frail and foregone, Well I'm about to drown! I'll pull you with me deep down underground!

Wanna play? My way. Same ol' noise, yeah: "Boys will be boys" Or do they? Was I ever one? He destroys, yeah, he's devoid of Empathy, and I can't stand it Yeah I chase what we used to be And you chase what I've come to be This ain't the first time it's happened But I'll make sure it's the last I can't change what you choose to be When you look at me sexually This ain't the first time it's happened You're committed to your craft I got you begging up for more Where no one else has gone before While I'm just dancing on the floor Can't do what you're asking for Same ol' noise, yeah: "Boys will be boys" Well, do they? Did you grow up at all? Keep the poise, yeah, we are your toys Want to play? That's what your hand is for! Childhood friend, your means to an end Aren't okay. Man, you've got the gall! But you can't have it your way And you can't stand it! Yeah I chase what we used to be And you chase what I've come to be You said you wanted us in bed Took me a lot not to laugh I got you begging up for more What no one else has done before Meanwhile I'm dancing on the floor The woman you're drooling for (One, two, three! Come on, girls) (And those who don't know it yet) (Bring it!) (Oh baby, babe) (Oh, oh, oh yeah) (I can't be your baby girl, oooh)

I killed a man And I'll damn do it again I could amend But I'd have nothing to gain Stay afloat My nails dig in your throat Your eyes turn pink You'll thank me for mercy to let you Sink I killed a man And I'll damn do it again I could amend But I doubt you feel the pain State your sin My nails dig in your skin Your eyes don't blink I think that it's time I should let you Sink I killed a man And I'll damn do it again I could amend If I take you down with me then you'll Sink

Citizen of the world, Forgotten and hurled, It must've hurt To remain unheard. You had no chance, But keep up your stance And rewrite the page; You'll refine with age. Take it easy, You are not crazy; There is a way out: Hear my shout... Take your time. Yeah you'll be fine. On your way, To the finish line... (Stop.) Now give it a break! This pretense you make— Yeah you know it's fake; Your identity's at stake! What you wanna do is long overdue; Just think twice, That is my advice. Take it easy, You are not crazy; Get in or get out, Hear my shout... Take your time. Yeah you'll be fine. On your way, To the finish line... (Why, why do I feel so nervous?) (Why is it so that we think time is precious?) (I'd stop it forever, to be honest,) (Just to enjoy the best before I'm put to rest...) (Every second falls like drops in the river,) (It's an enemy with traps ready to trigger;) (Why is it so that when I'm gone far away from her,) (It might be forever?) Is it the truth you would expect? This is a fate you should accept! Don't waste your time to regret; Move along... We wrote our name in the sand, Shores took it back; it wasn't planned, It just wasn't meant to stand; Write your own... Take your time... We will be fine... All the way... To the finish line... (Yeah!) (Wah-aah-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh) (Wah-aah-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh) (Wah-aah-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh) (Oooh, oooh, oooh) (Take your time...)
