Burn Out Blues

Life goes by
Each and every day
I need some time
So I can find a way

To slow down
Relax and clear my head
Just unwind
So I can breathe again

Feels so right
When it starts to take
I feel like I
Could leave and fly away

Close my eyes
Forget about the day
Open wide
And float away

You fly
So high
It's all behind you
You're safe

You fly
So high
It's all behind you
You're safe

You fly
So high
It's all behind you
You're safe

Time Off

I've just been taking some time off
To really get my head right
And plan out these next few months
Figure out things
Look out and figure out
Just think about stuff man

Floating By

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday
It's all the same day
I wake up, I go to work
And I try my best to just forget about
Everything that's bringing me down

Waking up, I can't get going
I think I need some help
Need something to get me through
I want to clear my head

Breathe it in and soak it up
I'm finally feeling right
While the world is out there stressing
I'll be floating by

Close my eyes and take a moment
Head up in the clouds
Time stands still, so lost in thought
I'm ten feet off the ground

I wouldn't change a single thing
I know it'll all be fine
While the world is out there stressing
I'll be floating by

I've Been Daydreaming My Entire Life

So I basically daydream
When I'm doing anything
I daydream when I walk
I daydream when I'm in class
I daydream when I dance

Next time around
I'll watch the words I say
Next time around
I'll bury my love
And hide it away
Next time around
I'll take it slow
And try holding it back

It's fun daydreaming, you know
You get to be whoever you want
And you get to do whatever you like

Hard To Say Goodbye

You said that I was all you'd ever want
You said that we were fine
You swore that you would never break my heart
You wasted all my time

You told me lies, deep breath, my bad
I don't know where I'm at

Oh, oh
Oh, oh

You swore that we would never be apart
You only saved the lies
Even though you said wouldn't go
It's hard to say goodbye

It's so hard to leave and go, nowhere to hide
You know inside
And now it's over now

Oh, oh
Oh, oh

Down and Out

My life, you know, it's boring
I've just been busy, sort of
And bummed out, sort of
It's been a long day and I'm not in a good mood
I was going to work and I'm gonna be stuck inside

But other than that everything else is
Still boring and the same
But I like music
If it sounds good I'll listen to it
Music plays a big part in keeping me happy or
Keeping me just
From not flipping out
And keeping me sane

Zonked

America is stressed
That's according to a recent survey
Conducted by this country's leading
Non-profit mental health organization
This mental health association
I was exhausted

And I didn't realize it, like, physically
Because it wasn't physical
It was definitely 100% emotional
And just in my head, I just felt tired

That is the problem
Because ultimately, people are not able
To get control of that stress
It will start to have serious
Consequences on their health

Get Lost

Close your eyes
Open wide
Stop and clear your mind

Feel the crowd
Move in time
Surrender to the sound

Get lost inside your mind

Flashing lights
Shine so bright
You fall into a trance

All the tracks
Take you back
Makes you feel alive

Get lost inside your mind

Easy Does It

There's definitely some pressure
And stress in my life
Ah, with trying to balance
So many different activities and everything

Kinda, sometimes I just need
To step back from it
Um, and sit down and think to myself
"Ok, it's all gonna happen
It's gonna be ok
You just have to take it as it comes
And roll with the punches"

Million Miles Away

So
Need a place to hide away
A chance to find a better place
To turn it all around

Fine
Choose a little peace of mind
Break out from the 9 to 5
And try to make it out this time

Keep waiting for a sign for things to turn around
Will I ever make it out
Can't count the times I've tried to change and get it right
Instead I just keep giving up
It's harder every day to leave and get away
I need to find a better place to stay

Time
Clock keeps spinning 'round and 'round
Window's getting smaller now
If you're gonna make it out, out

Keep waiting for a sign for things to turn around
Will I ever make it out
Can't count the times I've tried to change and get it right
Instead I just keep giving up
It's harder every day to leave and get away
I need to find a better place to stay

I need to find a better place to stay
I need to find a better place to stay
I need to find a better place to stay
I need to find a better place to stay
I need to find a better place to stay
