Verse 1 Can somebody help me I commited a crime, and I can’t seem to undo it. I hoped to find a way out, but it keeps on following me. I ran as fast as I could, but the fear kept catching up. And now I’m driving fast, on that same old gravel road. I fear I’m about to crash, something bad is going to happen again. So I drive the car out of the road, into a black hole. Chorus Can somebody help me? 2x Verse 2 Can somebody help me I feel so scared. I know the consequences of what I did. How can you not understand, I was pressured into it. I shouldn't have trusted them, they left me in the end. And now I’m all alone, and all my life is gone. Chorus Can somebody help me? 4x Bridge I started this war with myself. And how do I escape? Will I ever get out of it? Can somebody help me? Outro I swear this is the end, can somebody help me? I promise I won’t do it again. Can somebody help me? 2x

Small Talk 03:03
Verse 1 The room is half empty and the topic is gone. There’s no way out for you. Silence scares you and you can’t move on, so you try to fill the empty space with your, small talk. ‘Cause that’s just what you do. Chorus It’s such a shame, that you waste your time with it. It’s always the same, cause that’s how you communicate. It’s such a waste, ‘cause all I hear, it is. Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla .. Verse 2 You have a need for attention, and when somebody describes your type, you seem to get insulted just because you know they’re right. Small talk, is the way you get around. Chorus It’s such a shame, that you waste your time with it. It’s always the same , cause that’s how you communicate. It's not a game, but of course you think it is. Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla .. – Instrumental – Chorus It’s such a shame, that you waste your time with it. It’s always the same , cause that’s how you communicate. It’s such a waste, ‘cause all I hear, it is. Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla .. It’s such a shame, that you waste your time with it. It’s always the same , cause that’s how you communicate. It's not a game, but of course you think it is. Bla bla bla bla .. Small talk

Verse 1 Don’t stare into the sun, it will burn your eyes. You’ll break your heart again, and loose your sight like I did. I kept looking for a reason not to turn away. I didn’t listen to what they said, now my heart is catching flames. Vers e2 Don’t stare into the sun, it will burn your eyes. The heat will pull you in and you’ll die like I did. I kept looking for a reason to stay by your side. I didn’t listen to what they said, now my heart is on fire. – Instrumental break – Verse 3 Don’t stand out in the rain, you will get a cold. The rain will freeze to ice, and the ice will melt to snow. I kept looking for a reason not to go inside. I told myself it’s better out, I feel so right. Verse 4 Don’t stand out during thunder, have you lost your mind? When the thunder hits you, you will lose your sight. I told them that I had been blind my whole life. So I let the lightning hit me, ‘cause it makes me feel alive. Chorus I’m so lost where am I? I’m so alone in this life. I discovered the truth. That love it causes pain and the heartache is the proof. Bridge I’m so lost where am I? I’m so alone in this life. I’m just floating in space. Feeling my life go to waste. I’m so lost where am I? I’m so alone in this life. I discovered the truth. That love it causes pain and my heartache came from you. Chorus I’m so lost where am I? I’m so alone in this life. I discovered the truth. That love it causes pain and the heartache is the proof. I’m so lost where am I? I’m so alone in this life. I discovered the truth. That love it causes pain and my heartache came from you.

Verse 1 Good things, come to and end. The house burned down, the ashes covered it. The water overflows and takes up all the land, to seed a new beginning for a better man And in the end when there’s nothing left, you don’t need to worry about death. Because the water overflows and takes up all the land, to seed a new beginning for a better man. Chorus You shoot me, so I'll shoot you. That’s the most fair thing to do. You take my land, and I’ll step into yours. And I’ll make sure it goes down with a war. You shoot me, so I'll shoot you. That’s the most fair thing to do. You take my land, and I’ll step into yours. And I’ll make sure it goes down with a war. Verse 2 The sun went down and the moon came up. I felt the temperature of the airdrop. The house was quiet, and the rooms were dark. The silence of death had left its mark. I called out your name, to see if you were there. But I didn't get any answer. So I went to you room, to look for you, to find that they had killed you too. Chorus You shoot her, so I'll shoot you. That’s the most fair thing to do. You take my land, and I’ll step into yours. And I’ll make sure it goes down with a war. Chorus 2 You shoot him, so I'll shoot you. That’s the most fair thing to do. You take my land, and I’ll step into yours. And I’ll make sure it goes down with a war. Bridge An eye for an eye, trade a soul for gold. Don’t think about emotions, maintain control. The last man standing is the one who wins. After blood, life begins. Chorus You shoot me, so I'll shoot you. That’s the most fair thing to do. You take my land, and I’ll step into yours. And I’ll make sure it goes down with a war. 2x

Verse 1 People tell me that you’re no good, but I don’t listen. I know we have a lot of issues but it’s none of their business. Loving you is like a good drug, and I’m addicted. There’s nothing they can do, to make me stay away from you. Verse 2 Break the glass into pieces, break my heart. I’ll always love you for the man you were in the start. Whatever you say, i will do. There’s nothing they can do, to make me stay away from you. – Instrumental break – Verse 3 Blood stains on your hands, broken glass on the floor. Oh they pray, that the addiction would go away. But there’s nothing they can do, to make me stay away from you.
