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

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
