[Verse 1]: Alex-Ander
Now how many can say that they’re literally mentally ill
Years gone by, but in the penalty still
Trying to escape the pain, escape the hate
Always by myself trying to erase the fate
Yeah I know my life’s like comedy central
‘Cause you all love seeing people when they’re mental
Possessed by the devil, left with paper and a pencil
Just to bitch about how I’m on another level
People wonder why I’m always so fucking lost
It’s because most of my life I’ve been stuck in thoughts
Zoned out, thinking about every poor decision
Like all those narrow fucking doors I’m missing
To open, and go through, maybe see a better life
Shit like this crowds my brain through every night
That’s not even the half of it why I have insomnia
There’s always tomorrow, but I can never promise ya
[Chorus/Hook]: Alex-Ander
1 cut, 2 cut, 3 cut, 4
Living life is just another daily chore
Nothing is left in this ripped open heart
So I always gotta deal with these fucking thoughts and open scars
[Verse 2]: Switch
They tell me I’m unstable, won’t let me near a rope
Fuck that I got this cable, or a gun on this scope
But I still have purple, it helps me stay stable
A big fuck you to April, far from a angel
A slut go get some anal, slut, yeah that’s your label
I say this ‘cause I’m able, my words are that fatal
They tell me I’m unstable, won’t let me near a rope
Fuck that I got this cable, or a gun on this scope
I’m a fucking lose cannon, weird and fucking random
And I’m causing mad damage, aggressive a phantom
I feel like I fail everyone
So fuck it I think I’m that done
I’m a failure I had my run
Pop until everything is numb
I’m missing where I come from
And now I hate who I’ve become
[Verse 3]: Alex-Ander
There is nothing funny about being in the hospital
Days pass through, shocked because I haven’t lost it all
Brothers and sister coming in for a timed visitation
Confused out of their skulls in this situation
Drugged up on medication that people never heard of
Surrounded by people who have attempted murder
Still to this day I can see my siblings and hear them cry
Just thinking about all that shit gets me teary eyed
Sick off my past that’s gripped on, and being pissed off
Sick of writing shitty lyrics like the ones in this song
Life’s been broken into a million little fragments
I don’t even understand why all this bullshit happens
But here I am trying to make my life into a prodigy
Take out all the nasty thoughts, or at least possibly
Fuck it, hustle through and speed past all the traffic
And forget about my past and my bad habits
[Chorus/Hook]: Alex-Ander
1 cut, 2 cut, 3 cut, 4
Living life is just another daily chore
Nothing is left in this ripped open heart
So I always gotta deal with these fucking thoughts and open scars

[Verse 1]: Alex-Ander
I try to close my eyes after I dim the lights
Life passes through, seeing things from different heights
A messed up past makes for a messed up mentality
It’s challenging, every life obstacle that battles me
I remember each one, and it gives my constant headaches
And when you look at me next, you’ll know why I have dead face
I know, trust me, I need to see a psych. doctor, quick
‘Cause the insomnia’s back and there’s no stoppin’ it
I never used to be the stupid fuck I am
I developed this way from the people who didn’t understand
Downing these pills, like I’m dying to overdose
Bitter taste and the headrush brings Satan closer, though
It doesn’t matter, I’ve been possessed since the age of eight
Been thinking of ways to die, violently, day-to-day
And people are giving me mixed signals, they say to pray
Been there, fucked that up, now I’m waiting to fade away
[Chorus/Hook]: Alex-Ander
As soon I get that gun, I’ll lay my hand on the trigger
Let one go off so it’ll stop everyone’s pain quicker
No one by my side, I’m just a faded loner
Killing to die, gotta wait until the headache is over (x2)
[Verse 2]: Alex-Ander
Remember me? I'm the one that ruins lives
I go out of my way just to make up stupid lies
If tears didn’t dry out, man, I’d be drowning
Dying slowly, while every cell in my brain is pounding
With these fucking thoughts which are always a disturbance
And when a person walks by that I hate, it worsens
Thinking of ways to kill them violently
I know, I’m fucked up, this is why I speak my mind silently
Life’s a highway, I guess I’m stuck in a traffic jam
Years and years go by, and I still can’t pass it, man
It sucks, I hate it, and I’m starting to lose patience
And if tears burned, I’d be left faceless
I cry way too much for a growing young adult
For many reasons and most of them aren’t all my fault
Too many years wasted, I’m done, I’ll make it official
Set me off, I’ll kill you too with that pistol
[Chorus/Hook]: Alex-Ander
As soon I get that gun, I’ll lay my hand on the trigger
Let one go off so it’ll stop everyone’s pain quicker
No one by my side, I’m just a faded loner
Killing to die, gotta wait until the headache is over (x2)

Here Without You

[Verse 1]
100 days, the number that replays
Last time I looked at you and saw that pretty
Were there more good or bad times, yeah, I don’t know
But the good times in my head honestly won’t go
1000 miles away, that’s what it feels like
And every since I moved away, it just doesn’t feel right
But I gotta deal with real life, no turning away
Sorry for this song, but my heart is hurting today
100 days since I felt your hands on mine
And it’s killing me inside that you’re numb and blind
To the fact that I care so much that you’re in every nightmare
And I know you’re not but I wish that you could be right here
[Chorus/Hook]: 3 Doors Down Sample
A hundred days have made me older
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face
A thousand lies have made me colder
And I don't think I can look at this the same
But all the miles that separate
Disappear now when I'm dreaming of your face
I'm here without you, baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you, baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you, baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight it's only you and me
[Verse 2]
If only you could see how much I’m broken inside
And many tears falls when I hopelessly cry
Then maybe you show a little bit more sympathy
Maybe care about how 100 days will be century
Without seeing each other, not that you even care
But I wish that you were here or even I were there
You say you’ve changed a lot, well, I have too
But that doesn’t mean I’ve changed the way I look at you
So I don’t know what’s up with your personality
Just stuck here, hoping that this isn’t reality
But it had to be me getting thrown off the galaxy
In your eyes at least, and to me that’s all that matters, see
All I wanna know is what you even look like
Even go back to our stupid little Facebook fights
Forget it, it won’t happen, I gotta move on
And forget about rapping about who’s wrong
[Chorus/Hook]: 3 Doors Down Sample
A hundred days have made me older
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face
A thousand lies have made me colder
And I don't think I can look at this the same
But all the miles that separate
Disappear now when I'm dreaming of your face
I'm here without you, baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you, baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you, baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight it's only you and me
