These silly people never forget what we know and who we are
They have their mind in a glass jar
It wont be opened until were too far
These open minded closed minded vegan individuals they
They know whats in their pot tonight
They know whats lucky, know whats not right
They lay low. We can lay low
Don't try to lay with me anyway
I'm hearing those ways, I'm not hearing what they say
I don't care what they say, I wont say it anyway
Haunt me, softly now
You take off your dress and you toss it out I don't care
I didn't care, I cared the first time but now your dresses are everywhere
You need to pick your clothes up and go home
You say I'm the best person you've seen
I believed that, but now I don't believe
I just believe that you want everything
Everything I have, I don't have much to give you
And now its time that I give stuff to myself
To myself, myself!

Life's not how it used to be
Life's not how it used to be
Life's not like it used to be
Life's not like it used to be
I cant fall asleep but tonight i'm tired
Tired of coughing up demons
Tired of spitting in the eyes of some hopeless opus
Shes taking the notion
Alone in her ocean we brave the commotion
And this Chinaskian lifestyle wont commit
Your Orwellian nightmare wont exist
Well that's not like it supposed to be
Life's not like its supposed to be
Well life's not like its supposed to be
Life's not like its supposed to be
Harmlessly fallen, life crystal bullshit
For those who don't believe in God but believe in rocks
Touchdown Jesus here we come
We walked for a mile
Shes leaving Ohio
Packing up her car and just driving for miles
Well.. somewhere she supposes she belongs
Life's not how it used to be
She just needs to go home
Life's not like it used to be
She just needs to fall asleep on the road

Hang around that same place every night
Those people that never get old
Those songs that never get old
Those times that never get old
You hang around that same old car
Those roads those roads that never get old
They lead us to the same place that we go every night
A place with the light always on you can hang around
You can slang those songs, you can bang those toms up now
And you don't even know what to say
You never even know what to say
Take the fish hook out of your brain
You're sounding the same
And everybody's starting to throw your records out the door
And I don't know if I appreciate them anymore
So how can I even back up or get behind some ship that sailed a long Time ago the songs are over
The night is boring
The night is boring, you're boring me i'm going to go back to sleep
**There he goes, a leopard in the snow, a bastard in a bar another Asshole who doesn't care. A million and one affairs, were all sick of Climbing stairs
Another aspect feeling of a crude; another asshole feeling
The night is over, the night is over you're killing me i'm going to go back To sleep**

Sickening

One small wish led to this, your innocence is a dismal echo since this genesis of the magazine model, the american gal, the skin-tight gentrification you belong to now.
Pull your teeth out for them.
Pull your teeth out for them.
Pull your teeth out for them.
September 25th, when you first flipped
And I was already too addicted to quit
You took some things and left me as a bleeding ruin
Laying against the old chain fence was probably my favorite memory of this
You cant recall at all, I find that symbolic
Old news is old and you are so sickening
Nobody cares what you have to say so no one is listening
You continue to disappear
You continue to disappear.

Searching for Something
02:47

Searching for something that doesn't exist
Surfing this highway looking for exits
I think you're lost
None of your stories are touching
You'll amount to nothing
You're in need of something to black out your lung
Break all your teeth
You don't mean anything to me
I don't mean to beg but will you please leave me alone in peace to grieve
My fleeting memory of pleasant things revolving around you and me
And my own curse; conversations make things worse
You're vomiting i'm choking on dirt
You're always type B
The short film actress
Its in your practice to leave me wondering
So i'm no longer thinking of anything
I cant be responsible for any tidal wave your unbalance perspective may create
I wont answer the calls others were forced to make just to pretend i'm not on a dinner plate
The others cant believe
Ego is under siege
Our dreams are suffering yet we don.t feel a thing
Others cannot believe our dreams are suffering
Yet others don't know how we go to show that we must drown six feet down
We must drown six feet down

Don't you worry we'll always be there
Don't you worry we'll always be there my lover
My lover
Don't you worry where we'll end up cooking supper dear 'cause I know
Once we hit the road, nobody can put brakes on our fire
Were an immovable object, were an un-movable object
Once we get out on the road we'll tell all the friends we know
They'll hook us up, they'll shake us around
That's all we need while were in that town
Ill tell her "don't you worry 'bout that, you'll drive i'll sit back i'll relax"
She didn't like my joke about that.
Now its getting sour, now everything's bad
Everybody told me how did you ever suspect to live this way I said I don't know but ill try, anyway ill try anyway and now i'm slipping, sliding, and fading away.
Nobody knows, I really don't care
I really don't post my feelings anywhere
Everybody with their blogs and feminist zines
her favorite author's a sexist racist, but the favorite author isn't me
*So i'm treated differently*
UHM, I COOKED A STEAK

Faulty and not so "there" all the time
She knows I don/t know where to go but I run home
Another perspective on how to run away
Its just another man attempting to dig his own grave
And I know you wont help me buy out all my debt it is over
My own is over
My own is over, my ego is over
Love life is over, my happiness over

Your eyes say you're an angel but i've been lied to before
I don't know who to believe my heart or my mind
Who are we to fight who are we at all
I just want you by my side, who wouldn't, who wouldn't?
Hear my cries through my shutters at night
Think that i'm alright?
I know it isnt real, I know it isnt real
I know it isn't real, I know it isnt real at all
Hear me out, you're out having your fun
I'm here and I don't know what to think at all
I don't know what to think at all
Thank god i'm not thinking
..wait, say: Thank god i'm not here
Trying to be an angel when you're also a devil
Baby you're an evil substance
I hope you understand these references cause they're not subtle
You're an ancient beast
See the fog but i don't want to know
No no no I don't want to know.
No no no
Dont love me and i'm sleeping
Oh i'm all alone, oh i'm all alone
Don't come in here and kick me down
I'm already low
I know cause every dream happy is lost
I know ill never be happy again

*Amy's hanging outside of my house she told me she'd be there at 7:30 Shes a bit late
And I don't know what to do or where to go for dinner I gave up and I Already ate*
I'm full on beer, shes sitting out there
And I went out and complimented her on her hair
She said that we could go to the ball all the other kids were there
So I put on my shoes and had a twirl around
I put my arm around her as this moon settles down
And I asked her if there was someplace that she wanted to go the next day
I'm always trying to plan the next date
Oh, its all in your heart you don't care about love
Oh, its all in your heart
