You're screaming,
but not like I can hear you
through this shitty beer,
no one else is here.
And like I'd care if you beat me down,
'cause no one really cares if you don't stay around.
Maybe it's my fifth,
or maybe it's my sixth,
or maybe you should back up,
and mind your own shit.
(I was seeing lights that weren't there, I was slipping down the downstairs stairs. Heading to the bathroom where I would spend most of my night. And I was looking at myself in the mirror. Tripping over things that weren't there, and I fell asleep there until I went upstairs and fell asleep in a kitchen chair, but I don't really remember it from there)
And I'm back to the sink,
on my hands and cheek,
and I'm back to the sink,
Maybe you should leave me.

Wasting Away
02:45

I can feel my skin starting to rot,
I can see your arms drifting from mine,
and I'll never tell my mom and dad or they'll be getting behind the guy flashing his lights.
Wasting Away (x4)
[Let's Go]
And I plan to shed my skin,
and start a whole new life in college, maybe get some new friends,
'cause the ones in the high school,
they're all just assholes
Wasting Away (x4)
Wasting Away (Just a punk ass kid wasting away)
Wasting Away (Trying to get my fix wasting away)
Wating Away (Give me one more hit wasting away)

Better This Way

I used to wake up with a clear head,
Now you can tell by my nightstand how my night went.
I remember how I used to get high there, now I need to fight this.
Did you see where my light went (x2)
Don't you think it's fucking stupid?
I think it's fucking stupid.
Constant attempts at unneeded rehabilitation.
And do you have my light Chris? (Um, no)
I was doing fine with my human interaction.
You know I try every weekend,
I guess it depends,
on how I'm feeling (x2)
I saw you walked by,
just take a seat man,
look me in the ears,
and pass the judgement.
Or just,
Just pass the fucking blunt man!
You know I try every weekend,
I guess it depends,
on how I'm feeling (x2)

Ballad of Grandpa Bob

So this is where souls go to die,
I've got nothing left to leave behind,
and I think that I've got just enough time,
to see you before I go and split my mind.
There's less stars in St. Martin,
and I've noticed since you've been gone,
there's less stars in St. Martin,
and I don't think you were wrong when you said,
there's nothing left.
No I don't think you were wrong.
Where will you go when you're not here?
Where will you go when you're not here?
There's less stars in St. Martin,
and I've noticed since you've been gone,
there's less stars in St. Martin,
and I don't think you were wrong when you said,
there's nothing left.
No I don't think you were wrong.
Where will you go when you're not here?
Where will you go when you're not here?

The only friend I need is my bank account,
Glass people always let me down,
and I'm losing sleep from my nocturnal mind.
And I can't seem to find,
a very comfortable state of mind,
the deer stole the world and killed all its' inhabitants but no one blinks an eye,
writing on the wall is more than lines and symbols, but they will never tell.
The only friend I need is my bank account,
Glass people always let me down,
and I'm losing sleep from my nocturnal mind.
And flashing lights they show more signs,
than all your buildings filled with lies,
you're a serpentine but portrayed clean and bound with cocaine dreams,
and no one blinks an eye.
Writing on the wall is more than lines and symbols, but they will never tell.
The only friend I need is my bank account,
Glass people always let me down,
and I'm losing sleep from my nocturnal mind.
The only friend I need is my bank account,
The only friend I need is my bank account.

Comic Books

I grind my teeth too much to get through the day,
work stresses me out, but I need the cash to take you out on a fancy date,
and I always say I'll quit, but today's just not the same,
I'm feeling tire and frustrated from the moment I'm awake.
Barely looking with matching results and blood burning through,
all completely accurate signs that have nothing to do with you,
I've shown you all my comic books and you know my walls are blue,
This building mass and bottles passed with lips stuck like glue.
Never leaving and never sleeping,
hoping you don't get sick and tired of me constantly complaining.
Burning out and drowning down.
Everyone but you (x6)

Like She'd Care
03:18

What does she care?
Ever asked what I think,
Try to sink this whole family in endless streaks of,
self collapsing doubt in me.
Double me up,
so I can forget all the times I ever fucked up.
I don't think she'll mind,
and I don't care,
would it be bad if I stepped outside?
'Cause I really need some air.
I know it hurts,
I know it burns,
don't try and tell me that it can't get worse because,
you know I hate leaving,
you know I don't need treatment.
None of this would have ever happened if I hadn't left my fucking basement.
I don't think she'll mind,
and I don't care,
would it be bad if I stepped outside?
'Cause I really need some air.

As You

Just because you wear all black,
that doesn't make you bad.
Just because you hate your dad,
that doesn't make you sad.
Just because you smoked once or twice with two guys you didn't even fucking like,
that doesn't make you bad, it only makes you worse.
God only knows what god only knows and,
I only know what I find out on my own.
God only knows what god only knows and,
I only know.
Just because you're on your own,
that doesn't mean you're all alone.
Just when you fully believe I'm wrong,
is when you know I'm right.
God only knows what god only knows and,
I only know what I find out on my own.
God only knows what god only knows and,
I only know.

Nowhere Forever

I fell asleep in class dreaming of empty beer cans,
and how I can't stay at your place past 1 A.M.,
Why's the summer got to end?
Why's it got to end?
I swear nothing's wrong with me,
I swear I'm doing fine without it,
I just don't see the point in,
The point in keeping,
keeping it continuing on.
I was never meant to leave my public shool,
I'm scared of the dark and girls too,
I never want you to leave,
Why can't we just stay nowhere forever?
I swear nothing's wrong with me,
I swear I'm doing fine without it,
I just don't see the point in,
The point in keeping,
What's the point of keeping,
keeping it continuing on.
