I'll Get Along

I am lost
In this land
I have everything I wanted
But less time on my hands
I need her
By my side
Cause I can't crack the egg
Without seeing what's inside
I look up
I look down
I said god damn, this loneliness
Is twisting me around
Yeah
I'll get along….without… you
But I … Don't know….What… to do
Where to go
What to do
I've got everything to gain
But no time I have to lose
I need rest
I should sleep
But I can’t seem to close my eyes
Without torturing the sheep
Give me pain
Do your worst
Cause I'd rather take the hits
Than think about me first
Well alright
That's ok
Why would anybody ever
Give two fucks about me anyway
Yeah
I'll get along….without… you
But I … Don't know….What… to do

The Drain

A bullet can mean a million things
But we're always hurt from words
It's all a bit tough but you make it rough
So every little thing must be reassured
If you don't know what to say
And you're wound up too tight
Then I don't know what to say, so
We'll start another fight, so we'll just fight
All day and night, so we'll just fight
Turn out the lights
If you can't comprehend, then I don't understand
Why you know everything that's inside my head
So stop being a jerk, you think you can lurk
Around on me while I'm just doing my job
And if you don't know what to say
And you're wound up too tight
Then I don't know what to say, so
We'll start another fight, so we'll just fight
All day and night, so we'll just fight
Turn out the lights

Soul In The City

Turn around, turn around Lights over your head
Drive faster, walk slower There's a devil on my shoulder
I don't mind, I don't mind Just a wasting my time
Jay-walking through the streets Pitter-patter of their feet
Brown hair, leather jacket And a bottle of wine
Sitting down, arms crossed Scattered visions are tossed
Riding green, pink and purple Don't know which one to take
I'll just pick a location Hope I get the motivation
Oh where did I go What did I leave Behind me
Ooh what did I do I left my soul In the city
There's a smell in the air Something catches your eye
There's a man selling franks On the corner of a bank
Looking here, looking there There are people everywhere
Park your car, get a ticket Grab a stamp, and you lick it
Take a train, take a bus But don't hop on too late
Looking left, looking right Someone's starting a fight
I can't see, I can't see They're all coming for me
If I blink even once They are sure to throw a punch
Gotta run, gotta run Gotta make it on time
Hold my head in the air Hold my head in the air
Take a hit off of this Dragging down by the toes
I'll have one, two or three That's just how the story goes
Oh my god, I'm alive Just get out of my head
Gotta get to my job Then I'll go home and sob
Well alright, well okay I suppose I can stay
Just a little while longer As the city gets stronger
Oh where did I go What did I leave Behind me
Ooh what did I do I left my soul In the city

I Can't

All that's left to care about is how loud i have to shout
To get you to hear me till i turn pink
I think that i could go for a drink but i cant
Scratching off my hopes and dreams
As the kid inside me screams
Because as much as i can tolerate dicks
Eventually i'll want another fix but i cant
It's a shame, well I've already played this game
Everyday, I kick off my shoes and pray
It's hard to defeat, but in the center it's really neat
Guess it's not so bad, 'cause in the end I'm very glad
Let me sit to think awhile
Scan my brain to see what's on file
Store it like a memory chip
Man I really need a sip but i can't
Hold me close don't let me go
Touch that nasty yellow snow
Take a step 123
That's how easy it can be but it's not
It's a shame, well I've already played this game
Everyday, I kick off my shoes and pray
It's hard to defeat, but in the center it's really neat
Guess it's not so bad, 'cause in the end I'm very glad

Oreos (and Cream Soda)
04:41

4 in the afternoon, we've all just had our days
Shaky yet restless, we walk through the cold winter's haze
We can say it's been a while, since we've all seen July
Little did we notice, that's when we'd say goodbye
Oreos and Cream Soda
Now I hardly even know ya
Frozen pizza, solid friends
Seperated in the end
We'd all play music till 10 o clock at night
We pissed off the neighbors, catching them hindsight
Every day was much the same, but differed in our eyes
We were such idiots, but never realized
Oreos and Cream Soda
Now I hardly even know ya
Frozen pizza, solid friends
Seperated in the end
Oreos and Cream Soda
Now I hardly even know ya
Frozen pizza, solid friends
Seperated in the end
Looking back, that was years ago and it's time to move on
Everyone has glory days, and I suppose those are gone
I guess it might be different, when we hang out in July
But one thing I know for sure, it sucks to say goodbye
