We were good when we were young
That's when we had our fun
On the town striking fear
Let em know the gang is here
Could have stopped the bleeding wound
Elephant in the room
Bury it deep inside
Let me find a place to hide
From the boom the collapsing machine
Let the shrapnel put you in the tomb
Of the dwindling dream
Every time I reached out you would call my name
Someone new to blame
It was looking bad from the start
But we took our chance and let it get away
Somehow woke from the deep
Coma and whisky sleep
I've been out a year or two
That's what giving in will do
Could have said what's on my mind
As if I had a spine
Bury it deep inside
Let me find a place to hide
From the boom the collapsing machine
Let the shrapnel put you in the tomb
Of the dwindling dream
Every time I reached out you would call my name
Someone new to blame
It was looking bad from the start
But we took our chance and let it get away

You Lose Continue

Every day that I took on the world
I didn't see the face and I didn't see the curls
Of the one who passed me by
Laughing in my eye
You and I were overtaken
Family banished and forsaken
Do you have a coin
I need another life or two
Every day that I tried to relax
I got spun around and I wound up on my back
With the buzzards up ahead
Waiting for the dead
You and I were overtaken
Family banished and forsaken
Do you have a coin
I need another life or two
With the buzzards up ahead
You and me were overtaken
Family banished and forsaken
Do you have a coin
I need another life or two
I gave up I need place to play the fool
I'll come home running back to you

Crawling Now
01:37
|

Leave me nestled in my puddle of bile
Holding in your laugh as I take a while
Cuz it's just another day in
The story of a pawn
But I feel like a natural born killer
As I dream into the dawn
Maybe one day I'll conquer my fears
Maybe one day I'll say no to the tears
But in the heat of the moment
I'm always grasping straws
If my face does seem peculiar
Guess what that's not all
Ask for someone to take me home
Away from the demons with whom I roam
Cuz the streets are feeling empty
And I don't have the buzz
And the walk home is familiar
Away from the things I've done

Some Silly Reason
02:42
|
|||
If you need a shoulder to lean on
What would the solution be
If you need an ear to hear you
I probably got a place to be
If you got a strong opinion
On principal I'd have to shrug
Just another day in paradise with you
Shoving it beneath the rug
If your fears all came true
I'll tip a glass to you
Maybe for a minute I'll keep going with it despite you
If you're worried bout the future
I'll worry bout it in a year
If you're worried we're stagnating
That ship already left the pier
You're just the Tom to my Jerry
Chasing me around the house
You cough up a million fur balls and counting
I'm quiet as a mouse
If your fears all came true
I'll tip a glass to you
Maybe for a minute I'll keep going with it despite you
Some silly reason
Reason to hang on
If you try to deny
The last bit left inside
Maybe for a minute
Maybe for a minute
Maybe for a minute I'll keep going with it despite you

My Boy
02:08
|

Wouldn't do it if I was sober
But at the bar one night
We both discussed the things we hated
And myself came to mind
Don't ask me what i'm thinking
I could say too many bad things in response
Your father looks like a fat turd stinkin'
Oh no here I go there I go you got me going
Again
There goes my boy
There goes my boy
There goes my boy
Watch me now

Automatic Worry
02:54
|
|||
Some days I might act too strange
Tell me when I'll see you again
If you wanted to set me straight
I'll stay up and take the bait
If you wanted
Anything you wanted
If you wanted
Anything you wanted
I'm just worried I'll miss the train
I'm just trying to make the change
If you wanted to be my brain
Don't hold back and take the reigns
Who would save me If I fell from the boat
Time is ticking I don't know how to float
No need to hurry
The automatic worry
Take a chance to see me through
Take a chance to be there too
Close my eyes and run away
Not this time I'll say it again
If you wanted to be that way
I'll be here to do it again
Who would save me If I fell from the boat
Time is ticking I don't know how to float
No need to hurry
The automatic worry
Take a chance to see me through
Take a chance to be there too
If you wanted
Anything you wanted
If you wanted
Anything you wanted
If you wanted
Anything you wanted
If you wanted
Anything you wanted
