Carefree 02:54
I've been trying to get it out of my brain, That I made it out of the worst of the rain. Summer sun has appeared, and it's here to stay. See we're here now, not sure how, Never gonna call it quits 'til our last bow. This is just the beginning of a nice thing, Quit your worrying, just sit back and sing. Carefree Just pretend you're carefree It was supposed to be the summer where we did it all, Make things and break things and tear down walls. Now you're too busy working and growing up, Why can't you see that our time here just ain't enough? But I promise I won't complain, Since we've been through the worst of the rain. Now the light has appeared, and it's here to stay. Carefree Just pretend you're carefree

Hope You 02:43
You gave me what I need Cuz I need nothing Don't wanna waste my time if what's what ain't something I hope you, I hope you, I hope you see it all Your heart's so full of me, Why do I feel empty? You left no time for me, Tell me you're happy I hope you, I hope you, I hope you fall in love I don't wanna take more time from you, Hold you back from what you wanna do, Promise me you won't take me back, You always saw more white than black

The Place 03:28
This ain't the place that we once knew, The times have changed and now all I got is you cuz This ain't the place that we once knew We've been searching long and hard, For what we used to call ours, And now that we got here, It's nearly brought us to tears. And I know it's been a long time but I'm gonna Take back what's mine We took a drive up the coast all night Towards those old familiar lights We passed the shops and the bars that were downtown, But all the places we knew were closed down. I don't know where the life I knew went to, All I know's that the hard times ain't through And I know it's been a long time but I'm gonna Take back what's mine
5.
Roadtrips 02:54
Road trips with no stops, High as the treetops Problems, they'd look so small, Then we'd have it all All the lines we'd cross Drive an hour to get lost Answer every call, And then we'd have it all Wake up with the sun, No rest while we're young, And you won't let me fall asleep Then you'd have it all with me But what we have is good, I'd stay here if I could
6.
Too Late 03:00
I wore a mask with the face cut out, I tried to speak but they didn't hear a shout. Trapped down deep inside is the person that I once was, But I can't hear him anymore because I'm thrown into the sea, Senses abandon me, Can't hear and I sure can't see What the future holds for me Tell me that it's all gonna be fine, Just sit back and give it some time But I won't wait to see my fate, And I won't wait till it's too late. Now I'm not usually like this but I Can't shake the feeling that I'm Living in a bad dream where the things I do don't help me in time And everyone I know is posing as a friend of mine, But I can clearly see the masks they hide behind Chorus It's time to wake up and break outta this place, And while I'm at it tear this mask off my face. I know there's more to see outside this routine, Cuz everything I see I've already seen Chorus
7.
Used To Be 03:15
You're already blaming me for shit I didn't do yet, How's a man supposed to live with constant regret? You're taking your own side, fighting your own fight, But I don't see a reason why we can't both be right. Now you're trying to find parts of me that you don't really like, Cuz you're trying to find a reason why I can't be in your life. But let me stay another day, I'm here to say don't back away, Don't back away from our love. Now why don't you smile like you used to, Now why don't you cry a little like you used to, Baby why aren't you mine like you used to be Now you're runnin round telling your friends about something I said, Something I did but never meant to do to you, And all the little rules that I bent. And I've tried to take it all back baby, Said forget about the shit your friends say, None of this will matter when we rise above If you walk out of my life I'll fall apart, You know I gave you full control of my heart, Maybe that was wrong, but you're gonna leave me scarred, I just wanna restart I just want a new start
