Six Months 03:10
Posters up on every door: "Look after your head" But when you're just a box to tick You might as well be dead Left six months to keep afloat If they start to drown Tell them they're just growing up; "Everyone gets down" So ungrateful You've no right to cry Take these tablets You'll be alright Six months left out on the battlefield with no defence (Six months) Six more months and every day it's getting more intense (Six months) Six months left out in the cold; why can't we see that's wrong? (Six months) Cos six months when you're sinking could be half a year too long Give a child a pamphlet If they cry for help And a six month waiting list Six more months of hell Six more months of struggling To get out of bed Six more months of fighting Every thought inside your head So ungrateful You've no right to cry Take these tablets You'll be alright Six months left out on the battlefield with no defence (Six months) Six more months and every day it's getting more intense (Six months) Six months left out in the cold; why can't we see that's wrong? (Six months) Cos six months when you're sinking could be half a year too long

No Excuse 02:29
So you ask me to calm down a bit You don't like it when I talk about it Makes you uncomfortable, makes you feel bad Well I'm not being quiet so get used to it, man Cos I can't see how we've become so elevated To such heights and it frightens me so And I can't believe we're so inebriated On apathy, on human greed and it's all getting on top of me Keep your eyes closed Enjoy the taste Step aside for the human race Keep your eyes closed It's all a dream Of milkshakes and murder and protein We love the flavour of a lifetime of pain When will we learn that want and need are not the same? Because it's preference Don't tell me that you don't have a choice To stand up for those who do not have a voice And it's the age of information All the facts are there So ignorance is no excuse, my friend "Have some humanity" What does that mean? If this is humane, then I'm no human being Keep your eyes closed Enjoy the taste Step aside for the human race Keep your eyes closed It's all a dream Of milkshakes and murder and protein

Pick it up, nothing yet Wait a minute and check again Nothing quite like the rush That I get from that electronic buzz And I see you every day Never met you but hey You give me what I need When you're on my feed It's an addiction and I feel My electric life is almost real I'm a better version of me Behind a filter and a caption and a screen So won't you like me and be my friend? I won't be happy until you send me A message through the air So I can convince myself someone cares Do it for the likes Do it for the validation Do it for the high You get with every notification Do it for the likes This is your new fixation You're gonna have to try To find your good angle and your perfect smile If you wanna fit in with this connected generation My whole reason to value my life In my pocket at all times I just can't seem to bring myself to leave a room Without you in my hand And I'm never really alone When I'm sat on my own Should be asleep, it's 2am But I need my friends It's an addiction and I feel My electric life is almost real I'm a better version of me Behind a filter and a caption and a screen So won't you like me and be my friend? I won't be happy until you send me A message through the air So I can convince myself someone cares Do it for the likes Do it for the validation Do it for the high You get with every notification Do it for the likes This is your new fixation You're gonna have to try To find your good angle and your perfect smile If you wanna fit in with this connected generation

Inside Out 03:04
Every day you lie in wait I see you lurking at my window pane In the corner of my eye I see you hiding in the back of my brain I don't know why you hate It when I'm happy, when I feel okay Leave me alone, I'm on my knees How much longer till you go away? You wanna be my little secret Burn my body from the inside out You wanna scare me, keep my quiet Well I'm scared but I'm still gonna shout I'm gonna tell everyone your name I'm gonna tell the whole world About your twisted game I'm gonna tell them we are not the same Everyone is gonna know It's you who is to blame So you're back, you wanna fight I may be broken but I'm far from done I'm getting stronger every day We've had some battles but the war's not won I'm not alone and I may fall But now there's people who will pick me up So come at me, do your worst But if I were you then I would just give up You wanna be my little secret Burn my body from the inside out You wanna scare me, keep my quiet Well I'm scared but I'm still gonna shout I'm gonna tell everyone your name I'm gonna tell the whole world About your twisted game I'm gonna tell them we are not the same Everyone is gonna know It's you who is to blame

Bad Days 03:48
Bare feet, broken glass Sorry I ever asked Here it comes: "what's with you?" But it's nothing different and it's nothing new I am tired yet again Can't even pick up my pen Maybe I should be more strong But it's hard when the bad days Last so fucking long (Bad days) Glued to my phone (Bad days) I'll sink like a stone (Bad days) Burning my brain (Bad days) I think I'm insane (Bad days) Frozen in time (Bad days) Where is my mind? (Bad days) Trapped in my head Cos it's the bad days When I wish I was dead Warm sun, dressing gown Trying hard not to drown Here it comes: razor cloud I can't speak, my head's too loud I am tired yet again Can't even pick up my pen And I think maybe I should be more strong But why is it the bad days That last so fucking long? (Bad days) Glued to my phone (Bad days) I'll sink like a stone (Bad days) Burning my brain (Bad days) I think I'm insane (Bad days) Frozen in time (Bad days) Where is my mind? (Bad days) Trapped in my head Cos it's the bad days When I wish I was dead
