[Intro: Henry D'Arthenay] Quiero darte una respuesta Que no puedo responder Y si me quedo a medias Si me quedo a medias, recuérdame Quiero darte una respuesta Que no puedo responder Y si me quedo a medias Si me quedo a medias, recuérdame [Verse 1: Jhariah] I can’t seem to escape from the place I stand Without fail, I end up right back In the comfort of tracks I’ve Permanently scarred On the same proverbial yard That surrounds me so It’s all I know I promise next time the words will come out [Chorus: Jhariah] If I take a step and give two back Will you take or bow or dance? (I swear) It’s the last time (Just give) Just give me one more try If you have to hear this song again Can I pray it’d have a chance? (I swear) I swear (Just give) Just give me one last try [Verse 2: Choir] Try, fall Try, fall Try, fall Try again Try, fall Try, fall Try again [Chorus: Jhariah & Choir] If I take a step and give two back Will you take or bow or dance? (I swear) It’s the last time (Just give) Just give me one more try If you have to hear this song again Can I pray it’d have a chance? (I swear) I swear (Just give) Just give me one last try [Chorus: Jhariah & Choir] If I take a step and give two back Will you take or bow or dance? (I swear) I swear (Just give) Just give If you have to hear this song again Can I pray it’d have a chance? (I swear) I swear (Just give) Just give [Outro: Henry D'Arthenay] Quiero darte una respuesta Que no puedo responder Y si me quedo a medias Si me quedo a medias, recuérdame Quiero darte una respuesta Que no puedo responder Y si me quedo a medias Si me quedo a medias, recuérdame

[Verse] This time around’s no different I’ve played with chance like you I loved to toy with fate but oh I didn’t have a clue [Refrain] That I would lose Oh I would lose Between my left and right, one day I’d have to choose “You’re not like me, I’m not like you. I’m not who these things happen to “ And that’s exactly what you say before they do [Verse 2] I can’t dance like I used to I don’t have the same moves as you But that’s okay Fortune find your way To someone who needs it much more than me [Chorus] Hand in hand Come human error And plain bad luck It seems the timing’s always wrong For the ones who wait too long You’ll never catch a break you’ll have to make your own [Verse 2] My legs drag behind me And they creak In syncopated time But I know that one day I will lose them too I didn’t have a clue [Refrain] That I would lose Oh I would lose Between my left and right, I’d one day have to choose You’re not like me, I’m not like you. I’m not who these things happen to And that’s exactly what you say before it catches up to you Before you play with knives and find yourself in two, you, you, you You, you, you, you [Outro] I finally climbed to heights I No matter how I try Can’t descend Still somehow they’re looking down on me Laughing cause I got what I deserved (You got what you deserved) And I would do it again I’m not sorry but thank you For enduring me As long as you did That’s more than I’d ever ask of you

[Verse] I’m so glad I woke up today A different life in a brand new place I think I maybe outgrew the last I needed a change of pace No more talk of what my burdens say They’ve been left behind and that’s where they will stay Fled the scene, nimble, my hands kept clean I needed a change of pace Needed a change of pace [Chorus] Oh, how could you love me so? Oh, with all I’ve done and the things you know? My dearest You better never forgive me Cause if you Forget what I’ve done I’ll do it again [Verse 2] I died that night and killed god in the morning Left without a warning or even informing the coroner I was a foreigner Never belonged in that place Played along in that place Till I had enough of the games I couldn’t find the time From the afterlife To apologize Or even say goodbye Oh, how could you love me so? Oh, with all I’ve done and the things you know? My dearest You better never forgive me Cause if you Forget what I’ve done I’ll do it again [Bridge] (Needed a change of pace) I’ve come to realize (Gone without a trace) I’d rather flee than fight (Needed a change of pace) To fake your death is (Gone without a trace) The most honest life (Needed a change of pace. Gone without a trace) All it takes is an agile step and the vigilance to (Needed a change of pace. Gone without a trace) Spot that blink of an eye [Chorus] Oh, how could you love me so? Oh, with all I’ve done and the things you know? But still, you plead with me Baby, I guarantee You’re better off if you let me go Cause even eye to eye I’m not afraid to lie A curse and a kiss goodbye [Outro] My whole life all I wanted was a change of pace

[Verse] "Please you must excuse me I cannot help but think I've Overstayed my welcome" "Please", she said "It's hardly a bother The company's quite nice on Crimson nights like these" [Pre-Chorus] Then he exits To the street below Knowing he has no intention to return [Chorus] Well I think that I've gotta go and I don't know why But I need you to promise that you won't cry Cuz you'll be fine, and so will I So just let the thought of me die [Verse] And please let me know Let those old memories go Feed me to the crows Please Understand that I Will find a brand new life My golden second try Suddenly, in the mirrors of the windows that night He found the man before him had died [Chorus] Well I think that I've gotta go and I don't know why But I need you to promise that you won't cry Cause you'll be fine and so will I So just let me out of your mind In the morning you'll learn I disappeared off into the night so quietly That your love for me will vanish too

[Chorus] Slow down Those words mean nothing My brain just revs up faster Pressure bomb in a goddamn knifefight [Verse 1] Ecstatic pathways runaway, flood my mind Overstimulation makes me feel like I’m alive Oh I wish there was a way that I could sing these lines A million miles a minute maybe then I could begin to feel like They could keep up with the semi-automatic Static that’s keeping me up It drives me forward every moment Makes sure I don’t stop too long to Smell the flowers I been here too long I might burn up and explode [Chorus] Slow down Those words mean nothing My brain just revs up faster Pressure bomb in a goddamn knife fight [Verse 2] I get in the way of myself And it hurts to admit That sometimes I’m unequipped To handle It all on my own But why do it alone? You might burn out and explode [Chorus] Slow down Those words mean nothing My brain just revs up faster Pressure bomb in a goddamn knife fight [Bridge] I’m at the end of my means From idolizing a made-up man who one day could be me But does that version sleep at night? Or ever take a minute to just breathe? Or Just to be? [Chorus] Slow down Those words mean nothing My brain just revs up faster Pressure bomb in a goddamn knife fight Slow down Those words mean nothing My brain just revs up faster Pressure bomb in a goddamn knife fight

[Verse] It's all catching up to you now Hope you can run Cause soon your past will come and drag you Down down You scammed your way into heaven Til the angels realize you're not one of them [Chorus] Here comes the debt collector Seems you owe him again Dollars and coins can't cut your check This time around Here comes the debt collector And you owe him again Kind words and lies won't save your head This time around round round [Verse] Gravedigger Cordial killer Your payment is due They're looking at you We've done what we can It's out of our hands Sooner or later it comes back again [Chorus] Here comes the debt collector Seems you owe him again Dollars and coins can't cut your check This time around Here comes the debt collector And you owe him again Kind words and lies won't save your head This time around [Bridge] Please don't think I have no empathy For you What you've been through but There's nothing I can do now but stand here and watch It all catch up to you [Chorus] Here comes the debt collector Seems you owe him again Dollars and coins can't cut your check This time around Here comes the debt collector And you owe him again Kind words and lies won't save your head This time around
