Falling Together

(album: Zzyzx Road - 2013)

7: 00 AM he hops onto the bus with some
Long sleeves to hide all of his cuts would ya
Even stop if you noticed or ignore the facts
'Cause you don't know him, he just sits in the back of class
Never talks, what a shock, you think he is weird and different
Never take the time to see how someone else is living
The hate is given and the smiles are earned by being fake
Give him some hope and let him know its gonna be ok
Don't wanna stop, but you don't wanna go, and you don't want to see what you already know, and you don't wanna be what you hate but can't escape what you ain't so let it go
He's painfully normal and strange
The history of the cycle of things that never change
It's hard to see life standing from that tower ain't it?
If all that matters is the popularity conveited
That bus stops and you couldn't say hi
You find a week later that he died from a suicide

Tried to pretend we were blind
But the only thing it left is this hole in your chest
So you stare into space hoping for change
But you're still trapped in this maze
And now you're only to blame

The bell rings she walks into the lunchroom
Like "can I sit here?"
"Naw there's not enough room"
There never is at the table of popular kids
Not at all until she eats inside the bathroom stall
Nothing new because alone is constant
You see her getting picked on but never stand up to stop it
Things are different but that reputation is earned
And she never had a friend that felt that ever felt like a friend to her
Don't wanna go but you don't want to stay, so you live on a hope and that hope is to make, to take it break it down until there's beauty in these damn mistakes
Another change killed the cycle of monotony
Shes praying for another option
Tell her that there's gotta be!
But you won't you're gonna watch her suffer
And not because you want to
You're scared to help one another
All it takes is some words and a smile
But you don't have the time and she ain't even worth your while

Tried to pretend we were blind
But the only thing it left is this hole in your chest
So you stare into space hoping for change
But you're still trapped in this maze
And now you're only to blame

Tried to pretend we were blind
But the only thing it left is this hole in your chest
So you stare into space hoping for change
But you're still trapped in this maze (uh, yeah, uh, yeah)
And now you're only to blame

And do you have what it takes
Takes to make a change
Do you have what it takes to change?
'Cause if we all say nothing, it all stays the same
Do you have what it takes to make a change
Heart to heart, we got you on this one man
It's a moment it won't last forever
And if you fall we all fall
Together
