All these nightmares
Stopped staying in my dreams
Now they are following me
Or maybe I'm just crazy
I'm haunted by your ghost
And you're not even dead
A slave to these shadows
Surrounding my bed
Maybe I'm scared of myself
Or what I'm capable of
Maybe it's something else
Lacking explanation
And when you bury me
After my last day's done
Make sure that it snows there
That's the one thing I want
Something cliche like that
For my romantic heart
Make sure it's beautiful
A fucking work of art
Maybe I'm scared of myself
Or what I'm capable of
Or maybe it's something else
Lacking explanation
Tired eyes Tired eyes
My disguise is wearing thin
I don't know how this got started
But I know how it'll end
Pretty smile, been a while
Know I miss you all the time
This distance is fucking killing me
I just want you to be mine
Tired eyes Tired eyes
My disguise is wearing thin
I don't know how this all started
But I'll show you how it ends

I'm just another twenty something year old white guy
so please forgive me while i whine
I won't say anything that hasn't already been said
It's so easy to get away with
And I don't know about you but I'm a little sick of this...
I want to live a life of poetry and romance
Just like every other hopeless fuck
I'm not unique I'm not a special little snowflake
I'm just going the the motions
And I don't know about you but I'm pretty sick of this...
Oh fucking well Kiss and tell Cest la vie Just kill me
So it goes Status quo Day by day In cliches
Self deprication's cute so get on your blog and cry
Or maybe drown yourself in wine
Let's date for the summer and have and awful break up
Let me know when you're had enough
And I don't know about you but I'm pretty sick of this...
Oh fucking well Kiss and tell Cest la vie Just kill me
So it goes Status quo Day by day In cliches
Any asshole can pick up a guitar
Play some chords and spill their guts

War

I'm starting a war
Against you and everything that you stand for
Cause I'm so damn sick and tired of your
passive aggressive facebook posts
Is this supposed to be a joke?
I think missed punch line long ago
I'm starting a war
Against this town and everything that it stands for
Cause I'm so damn sick and tired of the
Douchebag cops and hardcore bros
The pseudo-intellectuals
I think that now would be the perfect time to go
Or waste away another year
I don't know what's keeping me here
Working odd jobs to pay the rent
Is this living really?
I guess we're all just getting by
With cheaper drinks and wasted time
I know I'm hard to be around
But I swear I'm trying
I'm starting a war
Angaint me and everything that I once stood for
Cause I'm so damn sick and tired of the
Fact that I always complain
And then never do a damn thing
You think I'd listen to those songs I sing
Or waste away another year
I don't know what's keeping me here
Working odd jobs to pay the rent
Is this living really?
I guess we're all just getting by
With cheaper drinks and wasted time
I know I'm hard to be around
But I swear I'm trying

Never think again!
(The 'rebels:')
"I got a plan to make you see my way
I got a gun yeah I bought it today
I'm gonna show you how to feel my pain
You better run before I start my reign
I've got a deal with all your enemies
We're gonna rape, we're gonna steal, and all your land we'll seize
I'm gonna tell you how it's gonna be
You're gonna squeal and then bow down to me
You can't live you piece of shit you deserve to go to hell
And if I have to kill us both I'll burn this motherfucker down"
So put your peace sign on his head, before you blast it through his brain
It was the last thing on his mind and now he'll never think again
(The 'war machine':)
"They got a plan but we've got loyalty
They've gotten guns but we've got an army
We're gonna put them back into their place
We'll leave the scars written across their face
We got a man inside they'll never know
We'll fuck em up, we'll beat em down, and stop the overthrow
I'm gonna tell em how it's gonna be
They're gonna squeal and then bow down to me
You can't live you piece of shit you deserve to go to hell
And if I have to kill us both I'll burn this motherfucker down"
So put your peace sign on his head, before you blast it through his brain
It was the last thing on his mind and now he'll never think again
So put your peace sign on his head, before you blast it through his brain
It was the last thing on his mind and now he'll never think again
Never again.

I'm not exactly sure what you expect from me
I'm sure to let you down eventually
I know that this is not what you wanted to hear
But this is for the best I promise you my dear
Maybe it's just me always over the top
Melodramatic afraid of commitment
Cause I've been through the wringer a few too many times
But fuck it stick around I've been known to change my mind
Hey I don't know what I'm thinkin
Might be out of line
But hey I know one thing for certain
I'll be up all night tonight tonight
I only wish you knew how much you meant to me
Hold on to your seat things could get messy
I hope you prove me wrong and sweep me off my feet
Let's gamble with our friendship but we'll be getting laid at least
Hey I don't know what I'm thinkin
Might be out of line
But hey I know one thing for certain
I'll be up all night tonight tonight
All the little lies we tell ourselves to make it through the night
When you're too weak and you're too tired to care or try
Day in day out another bout you wonder if you'll get your fill
When every night's a Friday night you're waiting for that kiss that kills
Hey I don't know what I'm thinkin
Might be out of line
But hey I know one thing for certain
I'll be up all night tonight tonight
I'm not exactly sure what you expect from me
I'll probably let you down I guess we'll wait and see

Feedback
Heart attack
Noise maker
Heart breaker
Cold war
Bed sores
Kill me now
Make me proud
Entertain
The mundane
Bought and sold
It's gettin old
That's just the way it goes
I'm not such a nice guy
It's a problem yeah I know
I'll roll over and die
Spread thin - Hated - Distrust - Discussed
Mean streak - Seems bleak - On the line - take your time

I've wasted my breath for the last time
If you could only just read my mind
I've gotten good at being clumsy
And breaking bones and feeling tired
I just don't remember most conversations these days...
It's finally just getting warm here
The colder days are at their end
I wouldn't say I mind it at all
Say goodbye to bitterness
Sorry I don't see you that often
Not nearly as much as I'd like
You never stray too far from my thoughts
You won't ever be left behind
And one more thing before I go
I always meant it
Any time I told you so
I'll always love you

I Quit
03:28

15 Hours a day
7 days a week
2 o'clock pm
9 more hours til sleep
7.25 times 7 times 15
Take off 20 percent for taxes
Comes to 231.18....
I don't think so, I said that you're full of shit
I don't think so, it's safe to say I...
Lunch break at 1
Dinner at 7
Too tired for eating
I'll just sleep while I can
Manager's on the cellphone
Supervisor's on comm
My boss is coming in on the talkie
And I got head phones on
I'm not sorry, I said that you're full of shit
I'm not sorry, it's safe to say I...
And this stupid job is not what I want for me
I'm losing myself, I'm not where I want to be
And this stupid song will answer your reasons why
So you can fuck off, you can fuck off and die
I'm sick of working and I'm sick of your shit
I'm sick of being kicked around I said I'm sick of it
Maybe I'm a lazy ass, maybe it's not right for me
I'm sure it's possible I'm a no good fucking piece of shit
I don't care, no I don't care cause I'm right here and I'm not there
I don't care, no I don't care save your comments I'm aware
Well I think it's safe to say I quit.
(I don't care, no I don't care save your comments I'm aware)

Pabst Blue Livin'

A crowded room filled up with kids singing along covered in sweat
These fleeting moments far too few, we're letting go of our regrets
Those records got me through the days, I owe them more than I could say
And growing up means moving on, but never forgetting those songs
It was the best of times it was the worst of times
It was the best of times when I was with you guys
It was the worst of times it was the best of times
It was the worst of times when I was with you guys
Swimmin' in the Charles
Getting into fist fights
Driving 90 hours
Sleepwalking at midnight
Too tired to argue I hope I never see your face again
We slept on floors and on couches, we played in dives and in houses
Those memories were built to last, we won't be haunted by the past
With dreams built on blood sweat and tears, we're letting go of all our fears
So raise your glasses one last time, it has been one hell of a ride
It was the best of times it was the worst of times
It was the best of times when I was with you guys
It was the worst of times it was the best of times
It was the worst of times when I was with you guys
Swimmin' in the Charles
Getting into fist fights
Driving 90 hours
Sleepwalking at midnight
Too tired to argue if I could I'd do it all again
I'll find a place where I will belong
Get by Working and singing my song
Sometime I'll see you but until then
Good night I know I'll think of you when
We were Pabst Blue livin'
