SUBWAY
Franklin Gotham
(lyrics by K. Adkins)
—
I never understood the subway
I know it's filled with people and long delay
Hollowed out corridors
Fortified steel frame
Think about the men who built them
And what they might say
They are picking up the pieces
Laying down the track
Holding the line
While no one's cutting them slack
They are picking up pieces
Laying down the track
Knowing from the start
They can never bring us back
They'll never bring us back
And we are picking up the pieces
Laying down the track
Holding the line
While no one is cutting us slack
We are picking up the pieces
Laying down the track
Knowing in my heart
I can never bring you back
I want to bring you back
I know nothing last forever
So let's enjoy this time together
(We can) Live short or make it last
Have a good time
Don't think about the past
(We can) Be together or stay apart
You're always with me
Inside my heart
And Nothing matters anymore
Cuz You're the one I wrote this for
And we are picking up the pieces
Laying down the track
Holding the line
While no one is cutting us slack
We are picking up the pieces
Laying down the track
Knowing in my heart
I can never bring you back
I want to bring you back
I know nothing last forever
So let's enjoy this time together
(We can) Live short or make it last
Have a good time
Don't think about the past
(We can) Be together or stay apart
You're always with me
Inside my heart
And Nothing matters anymore
Cuz You're the one I wrote this for
Kiss me gently on the lips
Wrap my arms around your hips
Take me dancing across the floor
Could I love you now more than I did before
I'll be the ocean
You're the moon
Don't sink so fast
We're dying soon
It doesn't matter anymore
Cuz You're the one I wrote this for
Wrote this for

SICK OF MYSELF
Franklin Gotham
(lyrics by K. Adkins)
—
It's unfair
I was unaware
You had evil behind those eyes
Come hither
Lipstick with glitter
An innocent disguise
So wicked
Simple and suspicious
Minds think alike
Big city
Streetlights so pretty
Reflected in your lies
I'm sick of my mess
I'm of your texts
I'm sick of messages to me
I'm sick of my friends
I'm sick of romance
I'm hating everything
You know I love you and you’re not to blame
I'm sick of myself
So sick of myself
So sick of my…
Self pity
I'm not so witty
Easy to make you smile
Tall order
Lives getting shorter
These things take awhile
Stole your thunder
Left me asunder
With no alibi
Todd Bridges
No longer Willis
Still in denial
I'm sick of my mess
I'm sick of your texts
I'm sick of messages to me
I'm sick of my friends
I'm sick of romance
I'm hating everything
You know I love you and you’re not to blame...
I'm sick of myself
So sick of myself
So sick of my…
Lost and lonely
Won't you hold me
Stole my heart
But you don't own me
Arms wide open
I'm so broken
Leave me to
This life I've chosen
I'm sick of my mess
I'm of your texts
I'm sick of messages to me
I'm sick of my friends
I'm sick of romance
I'm hating everything
You know I love you and you’re not to blame...
I'm sick of myself
I'm of your texts
I'm sick of messages to me
I'm sick of my friends
I'm sick of revenge
I'm hating everything
You know I love you and you’re not to blame
I'm sick of myself
So sick of myself
So sick my
I'm sick of myself
So sick of myself
So sick my
Self

FEEL ALIVE
Franklin Gotham
(lyrics by K. Adkins)
—
Lie, lie
Tell me what you need to feel alive
Lie, lie
Explain to me the things you can't describe
And I'll survive
Whether or not your with me by my side
I'm alive, I'm alive
Can't remember what I believe in
Seeing things while you're still sleeping
Cold creatures thrive in the night
I confess it's so damn easy
Steal my soul & then you leave me
Covalent bonds holding tight
Lie, lie
Tell me what you need to feel alive
Lie, lie
Explain to me the things you can't describe
And I'll survive
Whether or not your with me by my side
I'm alive, I'm alive
Clean break but I'm still bleeding
Throw my back upon your ceiling
Tear me down from the sky
Manic thoughts & anxious feelings
Can't move but I'm still breathing
Pain is just part of life
Nightmare
So clear
Feel scared and alone
But you're here
No fear
Now I'm not the only one
Lie, lie
Tell me what you need to feel alive
Lie, lie
Explain to me the things you can't describe
And I'll survive
Whether or not your with me by my side
I'm alive, I'm alive
Lie, lie
Tell me what you need to feel alive
I'm alive
Explain to me the things you can't describe
And I'll survive
Whether or not your with me by my side
I'm alive, I'm alive
