We must rebuild the world From ashes, ground up To crash the system fueling human doubt About time we learned to pretend To befriend all the voices Screaming in our heads Shining beneath new light The reason you're alive Despite the pain and fear To speak so some may hear Welcome to life And just to be clear Sometimes you won't want to be here Now, I know it gets so confusing Believe me, we can do this Every single tear you'll ever shed Just another song for you to sing Although I scream these words They still mean the same F**k the industry, f**k the fame Aim to inspire and motivate Through sacrafice under a fake name Words are for nothing without actions Nothing but slaves to views and reactions Dime-a-dozen sluts for popularity Welcome to life And just to be clear Sometimes you won't want to be here Now, I know it gets so confusing Believe me, we can do this Every single tear you'll ever shed Just another song for you to sing I want to thank you But I couldn't word how much it means to me That you're out there listening Together we can do this Be the difference that you want to see Be the person that you're meant to be My voice the spark, your heart the fire More will come to take it higher still Light a torch so the flame can't be killed Welcome to life I've made myself clear Sometimes we don't want to be here now Sometimes it gets so confusing But you know we can do this Every single tear you'll ever shed Just another song for Another song for you to sing

Within the world I am murder Within the mind I am plague You cannot process the thought For you are not one to obey Yet without me you are nothing But another mistake, Just a repeat So call me sick, but you're infected With the will to do as you're expected Forsake your soul just to fit the role And pray to god you make it Everyone will be forgotten Don't waste your chance I am the voice inside A shadow cast within your mind Who you can't let yourself become A bloodthirst lurking on your tongue I am fire, passion, and your rage Life's meaning brought to you be me The thought of suicide that's keeping you alive To be a killer and a creator No longer dormant, but paralyzed With infinite pain comes infinite drive When you wonder what it's like to take a life You know, some days I don't want to be saved I could just end my life and never have to think again Bloody murder, slowly torture, stab, and kill I just want things to f**king die To free them all from the pain of life I grip the knife, just make it stop Your are the voice inside The shadow cast within my mind Who I can't let myself become Though my work is never done You are fire, passion, and my rage But I'll keep you locked in this cage You'll have to fight me 'til you die Our struggle is what gives me life To be a killer and a creator No longer dormant, but paralyzed With infinite pain comes infinite drive When you wonder what it's like to take a life Don't you wonder what it's like to take a life? Time to find out what it's like Become yourself and live just for your dreams Become yourself or kill everything Become yourself and live just for your dreams Become yourself or kill everything Killer and creator Could you change the world with such little time? Believe in yourself, and never forget Everyone who needs you where you are not yet Waiting for you while they're still holding their breath 'Cause they need you and you just don't know it yet

I'm hurting too (x4) Hurt with you We all need someone To feel the way we do The world is cold, people aren't nice And they won't think twice Of the kid whose mind was broken Prying and poking, soft spoken Trapped in a shell, watch everyone choking Knife in his pack, Waiting for his chance to fight back Prepared to attack 'Til he found he had a knack For the music, a purpose He knew that everyone is suffocating And everything is so frustrating But if I'm scared, someone else is scared too So let me hurt with you-oh-oh Put your pain in what I sing And what it means to you-oh-oh Crying with your headphones in Let me hurt with you When it's all too much Thinking you aren't enough I understand, and I've been there When no one cares, I'm always here Hurt with you We all need someone To feel the way we do Everyone thinks that they know Where to draw the line I'm here to send a message On borrowed time Passive suicide has helped me find my voice Screaming the meaning of sacrafice So I can hurt with you-oh-oh Put your pain in what I sing And what it means to you-oh-oh Crying with your headphones in Let me hurt with you When it's all too much Thinking you aren't enough I understand, and I've been there When no one cares, I'm always here Hurt with you Just let me hurt with you Hurt with you I'm hurting too (x4) Jump! Let me hurt with you Hurt with you

F**k me, f**k you 'Cause when your heart is empty Your head should be too Say what you want I can't help the people Who won't help themselves Merchants of guilt Hard to swallow pills; Enablers can kill So when your heart is empty Go f**king cry about it Too bad so sad 'Cause when your heart is empty Your head should be too First things first, it's hard to sympathsize With someone who stretches truth into lies Deny all you want but I know you know The way that you want this to go I'm fluent in your guilt trips 'Bout time someone calls you on your bullshit Maybe you need to be force fed some sense It's harder than you'd think To lead a horse to water And watch them not drink When thirst becomes addiction "Someone set me free" Becomes an endless plea And it's far from easy To take responsibility Cry about it Too bad, so sad 'Cause when your heart is empty Your head should be too, oh yeah Could you know the difference When nothing's beneath you And no one has had your back? 'Cause you're not that helpless You've just come to know The pity party is where it's at F**k your disease I've heard this before But the excuses just won't cut it anymore You got yourself sick It's your mess to clean I'm not your enemy But I'm no friend of what you've become F**king wasting your life Wasting your time, never rising above Sometimes I think I hate you Sometimes I think that it's just sad Go f**king cry about it Too bad, so sad 'Cause when your heart is empty Your head should be too Could you know the difference When nothing's beneath you And no one has had your back? 'Cause you're not that helpless You've just come to know The pity party is where it's at Hahaha So f**k me, f**k you Don't care if your heart is empty Get the f**k over yourself Grow the f**k up or get out 'Cause when your heart is empty Your head should be too We're well beyond the point of tough love You've sunken too low and I've seen enough Despite all the years I called you a friend You've done more than I can defend You're sick And when your heart is empty Your head will be too Cry about it Too bad, so sad 'Cause when your heart is empty Your head should be too Go f**king cry about it

A look inside; I'm sick of feeling like this Sleepless nights, paralyzed By my inner crisis A pen becomes my knife Writing a message in my blood tonight So here I find myself Just a slave to medication Trying to escape the reality That this is the real me Again I am broken The devil on my shoulder crawls into my head I need to get him out My writing, my salvation Help me, I'm scaring myself And fetishizing death Fearful of the day I need to do this Alone Stay on the phone And hope they get here in time Become the only lifeline Or become mankind's mirror To show them what they've done The path that I'm walking Is the only one Could you see it in my eyes When you asked to see my wrists The pain I keep under lock and key Sometimes gets the best of me These feelings only shared with you Through measures, beats, and rests More than a face behind a screen They know better, we know best You're not on your own this time We'll be eachother's lifelines Until it happens again Nothing there to catch me But the noose around my neck 'Cause I never had a family And I never trusted friends Though many confide in me I can't seem to let them in If this all I live for Then I might as well be dead When you're crying for help with every song You make the party go all night long You are the reason why I keep myself alive And if you do the same I think we might survive Help me, please Could you see it in my eyes When you asked to see my wrists The pain I keep under lock and key Sometimes gets the best of me These feelings only shared with you Through measures, beats, and rests More than a face behind a screen They know better, we know best

about

8 consecutive weeks of my blood, sweat, and tears, in addition to a painful neglect for my physical and mental health conditions went into writing and self-producing this EP. Please consider following my YouTube channel and Facebook page, and most importantly, showing my music to a friend, so that I can keep doing this. Let's help some people together. - Love, Maryjanedaniel
