I never get my hopes up they tend to always get torn down
I let myself get choked up, never let myself turn around
I never get my hopes up they tend to always get torn down
I let myself get choked up...
Now you find that everything you want from life is inside your mind
But your brain’s already splattered on the floor
Is that all that you needed to know
Is that I’m losing all control
Is that all that you needed to know
That I’m losing all control
Now I want everybody else to go fuck off right now
Just leave me by myself I’m hanging out on the couch
I’m not perfect but I’m not worthless
No I’m not perfect but I’m not worthless
Is that all that you needed to know
Is that I’m losing all control
Is that all that you needed to know
That I’m losing all control
Just take a knife and stab my stomach, everything’s outside
Well I swallowed every feeling that I left in mind
I said I’m fine, I said I’m fine
Just leave me by myself you know I’m hanging out on the couch

Little that you know that your worst has come to show
Drop your curtain down because the crowd is far from wowed
I don’t want to always be the bearer of bad news
Looking forward to not talking to you (not to you)
And hey, yeah this is true
I can’t always be the one that you abuse
The punches that you throw are at the belt and far below
Through your highs and lows, meadows and your dirty clothes
Little that you know that your worst has come to show
Drop your curtain down and do that now and know that
I don’t want to always be the bearer of bad news
Looking forward to not talking to you (not to you)
And hey, yeah this is true
I can’t always be the one that you abuse
If you keep your nose down you won’t drown

I’m desperate, misunderstood
You’d forget just like I knew you would
I wrote this down a million times
I know what’s wrong but not from right
I’m desperate, misunderstood
You’d forget just like I knew you would
I wrote this down a million times again
I swear I handled it
I wrote you back a million times again
I thought I handled it

You're Lucky I Like You

Stumbling over your words that you’ve said and heard
You can be such a jerk, you can be the worst
On the other hand you can understand
You can be my friend
You’re lucky I like you
You’re focused on the things that matter shouldn’t bring
You never stop to rethink the thoughts that you need to keep
It’s cause you’re not helping even when needed
Are you trying to lose a friend?
You’re lucky I like you
You’re a snake in the grass, here’s another pass to enter my life
You don’t try to analyze the things I fear inside
Well, never you mind
You’re lucky I like you

Today I’m waking up
Kind of feel I’m stuck in a rut
But progress is un-linear
So, I guess I’ll just suck it up
I am tired, I can’t sleep
Am I expired, or just weak?
Today I don’t know my place
Feel like dirt was thrown in my face
Now I feel so displaced
Sinking into a slower pace
I am tired, I can’t sleep
Am I expired, or just weak?

I started wondering why
You put your fingers in my sides
To test my confidence
To see if I abide or resist
In spite of me
In spite of everything
You disagree
Coming over this again
I want to control this I want to win
Coming over this again
I want to control this I want to win
This game
Your animosity
Brings un-needed hostility
In spite of me
In spite of everything
You disagree
Coming over this again
I want to control this I want to win
Coming over this again
I want to control this I want to win
This game

I wrote down my problem through all afternoon
I can’t escape them when I talk to you
A hole in my gut is where they like to live
I need to replace them with confidence
With some confidence
Coming down the wrong pipe this time
Stuttered so I had to say it twice
Choking on my words every time
In front of you
Tired of being in these situations
Skewed fluency and terrible cadence
The pen or the sword I can never choose
I don’t want to be a prick or hurt you
Don’t want to hurt you
Coming down the wrong pipe this time
Stuttered so I had to say it twice
Choking on my words every time
In front of you

Tired of wasting my time
Not knowing wrong from right
Now I can’t come down to hold you tight
Well if I’m not mistaken
You gave it, so you’ll take it
Now I’m feeling jaded
Cause I’m not worth taking
Sorry for wasting your time
But this has planted a spine
Maybe it will grow in the meantime
Well if I’m not mistaken
You gave it, so you’ll take it
Now I’m feeling jaded
Cause I’m not worth taking

Long in the Tooth
02:37

Everyday I’m getting along
Counting on my best bygones
There’s no point of attack
Just a rat on my back
I’m prepared to collapse
And I know I’m getting long in the tooth
No way back and no redo
I wanna come back through
And I wonder in twenty years
If I’ve met all my goals and I’ve faced all fears
No I cannot turn back, I’m carved into a plaque
Live my life on my back
And know I’m getting long in the tooth
No way back and no redo
I wanna come back through
Lamenting on the old days
Need to focus on the good things
And I know I’m getting long in the tooth
No way back and no redo
I wanna come back through

Take a sit down
Brother and mother both left town
Father doesn’t know what to do without them around
Now it’s too late
Break up for past mistakes
Sleep it off for now wishing for you to be right here when I wake
I won’t forget
Just what you said
About a family that’s been broken
It’s been broken

At the age of ten I said I have these feelings in my head
And I don’t know what to do
But then you say
That it’ll be okay
Well I know it won’t
And I’m all alone
Experience has grown on my bones and blood just know
That I haven’t changed with the times
But then you say
That it’ll be okay
Well I know it won’t
But I’m not alone

My backbone is breaking, it’s bending the wrong way again
Saw my lines in half to start, cook my meat and tear me apart
I’m overthinking to be the best I’ll always be
It’s overwhelming to always try so hard
I’m overthinking to be the best I’ll always be
You know, it’s overwhelming to always try so goddamn hard
Missteps in my ways don’t always need your say
Anxieties aside, I need you to step back and rewind
I’m overthinking to be the best I’ll always be
You know, I’m overwhelming to always try so goddamn hard
As you know this is overwhelming
Thanks a lot
Thanks a lot for nothing
