Five More Years

It’s been five long years since I met you here
Another record and gallons of beer
I’ve grown a bit and a bit’s a bit and I hope that it’s enough
So the times got hard and times got rough but getting there is half the fun
So let’s all gather round
Let’s hate on this polished sound
Cause the kids don’t know what their made of
But they certainly have a lot to be afraid of
But the kids don’t know what their made of
So let’s all gather round
We’ll hate on this polished sound

Oh, I don’t need it now
I guess you could say there’s a theme here
I’ve been addicted strong for 2 years
Oh, I don’t need it now?
Ask me again in a few beers
I’ll reaffirm your old fears
And you’ll wait
Just like everyone else
Your mind makes no mistake
Yea this could all fall apart
It’s the price that I can’t pay
When the needs meet the wants we could go through this again
Oh, I could need this how?
I’ll do what I need to impress that this I don’t want to address
And you’ll wait
Just like everyone else

It’s hard to believe I let it get to this point
Another night of clawing and cracking my joints
And all I ever wanted was to do what’s right
I never thought this person I had lived inside
Of every mistake and every new need
Of every disappointment and moment of weakness
I’m not really sure if what I see is real
Another low morning and pills for meals
And all I ever wanted was to fall asleep on time
I just wanted to be fresh for you
I just wanted to be next to you
I just wanted to undress with you
I just want to lay in bed with you
I just wanted to invest in you
I just wanted to rest with you
I just wanted to be next to you
I just wanted to be fresh
I remember the first time you looked at me weird
Your voice started shaking you were hiding your tears
And all I ever wanted was to do what’s right
But stopping wasn’t going so I paced at night
And enough was enough when the stash that you flushed
Lead me to realize enough is enough
I guess I really don’t know how low I can go
I guess I really don’t know how low I can go

I got the hint about the other day
Can’t say I’ve got much to say
There’s a little more than the surface here you see
And it’s been years since I carried that flag
Worked real hard and I sped up that lag
Leave it sore and quietly walk away
Because the only fight is human empathy
I’m sorry but I can’t always be there for you just the way that you might want me to
You can scream into the atmosphere but my heart is far away from here
I’m sorry but I can’t
You can say I’m being cold that’s ok
You’ve got a lot of people near you today
I may owe you one but this is not the one
And since my life has been forever changed
With the inclusion of this fiery range
Unless there’s blood, then I am not the one
I’m sorry but I can’t always be there for you just the way that you might want me to
You can scream into the stratosphere but my heart is far away from here
I’m sorry but I can’t

A Lover's Trip

Show me all of your darkest fears
I want the roots and all the shame
Leave it all up on the table dear
You know you can not dowse the flame
We’re more than names now
I’ll shake the first thing off the branch my dear
No secrets or no winding claims
Keep the glass into your heart so clear
There’s no point to try again
We’re not the same now
You might need this, it’s obvious it’s hard for you to know
What to say when sayin’s hard
But please don’t take this any other way but checking in
I wanna know what you fear
Take a breath take a sip, let the feeling be the trip
We’ve got a little more than an hour left to kill
But we’re more than names now
A little bit more, a little bit more, a little bit more
Rest assured
A little bit more, a little bit more
I’m not unsure
No, I’m not unsure

Old Scent

There’s a ring in the back of my ears that will last for the rest of my years
There’s a scent of nicotine that will last till I’m not here
And I can feel a hot one, bringing me down, but anyway
As of today, I can honestly say I’ve given up on giving in
And what’s it mean to burning clean after almost two calendar years
And all the things that I used to love just fill me with trembling fear
And I think I forgot who, I used to be, but anyway
And every year it becomes more clear that I’ve gotten away from me
And I know now that I’ve done wrong
It sucks that it took so long
So my bad for the things that I had that I let slip through my hands
And to the years that I lost in fear of changing who I am
And I can feel my heart pound, beating me down, but anyway
So that’s it I took a human shit on myself, that’s who I am
And I know that I’ve done wrong

Well We Built this City on Alcohol
Threw our shells up against the wall
And All the while we felt so tall
We built this place on hunger pains
Got so drunk we forgot our names
And all the while we went insane
It’s classic game of live and let shame
Yea we built a monument on Adderall
Took too much and hearts did stall
And all the while we felt so small
We became one when I changed the game
Shoved to much inside my brain
Never looked up only looked away
We’ve never been the same to this day
I wanna tell you all you want to know right now
I’ll tell you anything you want to know right now
Well I never thought I’d be back in town
At least not with a sober brow
A disconnect this time around
10 years gone they’ve past away
I honestly remember 8
Probably they weren’t that great
Yea I’m sorry if I forgot your name

Broad Shoulders
03:50

I’ve been shaking in the bathroom stall
Telling myself I can have it all
I’ve been waiting on the moving van
To take the stuff that’s in my hands
The sun will shine just as much here
But it’s way colder and your bones will feel it
They say the lake is the reason dear
But In know we can survive the year
I know we can survive the year
All we know, is we planted these roots and we need them to grow
And all we need, is some sun in the morning and some shoes on our feet, aint that neat
It’s hot it’s humid, a man got shot
The horns don’t stop till 3 o clock
I think I saw a roach that’s cocked
Another day in the windy state
Broad shoulders can’t define our fate
It’s colder than the red planet I feel like I’m starting to die
The wind is strong and the nights are longer than the sun gets a chance to shine
And the guns you hear in the distance they sound like the fourth of July
But we’re sure we’re sure that we're not to sure that we probably won't die....
So I’ve been waiting to get my chance
To pen this page with cheap romance and
I don’t think I have it yet
But time keeps going and we can’t forget
Time keeps going and we can’t regret

Yeah, I’ll impress upon you all the things that you do leave me shaking down to my knees.
It’s the way you speak when you’re walking down the street that’s got me wishing that you couldn’t breathe.
Just say what you mean instead of trying to burn clean you better ask yourself what your trying to achieve.
Stop looking so spry when your trying to imply that I never really give you what you need.
I don’t need to give you what you need.
It’s a trap man.
You’re a sick man.
You got me round got me round got me spinning all around all around.
It’s a trap man.
You’re a piece of shit man.
Ya gotta leave me alone fucking hang up your phone I bet you can’t wait to say your shit to me.
I’m gonna need some time before you take me alive, I don’t subscribe to your shit diatribe.
I wish you weren’t fucking alive.

Oh,
I wanna know it's true before I waste my time on you.
Oh we've got some learning to do before we make one outta two.
And oh we've got some growing you see before we make two into three.
And every word has its weight
And we know just the thing to say
To properly perpetuate that sinking feeling of honest hate
And I know this love is real
And I know just how you feel
And I want more than anything to make this work.
And oh we've got to learn to speak before we call ourselves a team.
And oh, I've got some things to change before a life as one we can arrange.

Temporary Displacement

My heart aches like any pulled muscle
And my veins bleed releasing ten thousand vessels
My lips grow chapped from the stresses of Frenching
While my friends scream loud with horrid depression
So I canceled our last reservation
Packed my car with fluids and vague desperation
10 brand new 20’s stashed under my dashboard
A striking desire to press metal to the floor
Like a flashlight to the dark
You were that fire starting spark
And if hates all that remains
I won’t regret a thing that we’ve been through
Well you caught me in the center of my bluffing
I trust way to much and I mistake it for loving
But with love comes trust you know I’ll thank you for asking
The error of my ways is in witless romancing
So I find myself now always retracing
The mistakes I’ve claimed I’ve grown after making
I’ll take that road when it bears it’s corners
I’ll take my chances and disregard warning
Dark Times
Neon Signs
If We Run Away We Are Left Behind
Money Owed
Growing Cold
How Much More Can Our Young Brains Hold
You would not believe what just happened to me. I got lost on my bike at a quarter to three. I rode in the rain I was retaining water remembering the words that you couldn't say softer to me.
