Matrix 03:43
It's all in the water You're just not looking hard enough A word to the wise Don't leave your girlfriend stranded in the middle of the night She'll never forgive you And after all I've done I'll never fit in society Because emo punk's not accepted But it is to me I'm taking a bus down to Boston You can come if you want There's room just for two And I'll buy your love And you'll buy mine We'll sleep all day And party all fucking night Just keep looking Because I'm sure they're still down there My car keys, wallet, and old cell phone All drifted down the drain And after all I've done I'll never fit in society Because emo punk's not accepted But it is to me I'm taking a bus down to Boston You can come if you want There's room just for two And I'll buy your love And you'll buy mine We'll sleep all day And party all fucking night But we don't have to if you don't want to Party all fucking night

The book sat with empty hands upon it In the room On an empty table A light lit that room She walked in through closed doors And hit the floor Half drunk, half stoned And covered in blood Please forgive me now I feel like we're being watched From across the way You've got to believe me And in the end I'll say it, you left me out to dry But that's all over Just come with me And we'll be fine You keep saying you are fine You keep saying you are fine You keep on saying you are fine You keep saying you are fine Please forgive me now I feel like we're being watched From across the way You've got to believe me And in the end I'll say it, you left me out to dry But that's all over Just come with me And we'll be fine

I'm digging a hole for me to hide So you won't see me, crash and burn Why can't this just be like old times? We can kiss in that car parked in that old alley way Life's sadness Comes from me I'm sure Oh nevermind me I'm like bobisnothing.com Brock showed it to me on Facebook last Sunday And I've never been the same since But now I'm three meters stuck underground From my digging, some one better save my ass Blood red signs point east to west But I'm heading North anyway Lies seep in and tears weep out When all is for nothing is nothing for all Life's sadness Comes from me I'm sure Oh nevermind me I'm like bobisnothing.com Brock showed it to me on Facebook last Sunday And I've never been the same since But now I'm three meters stuck underground From my digging, some one better save my ass I'm three meters stuck underground!! Someone beter save my ass!!

My life completely changed today when I saw you grasping hands with a complete stranger I's never seen before It was almost like that time When I ran into you at the mall And you didn't even recognize me In my red cut off shorts Because we're trying to keep a balance in our lives More than ever before And it's already starting to hurt my head And when I pick you up You always throw me down a hard set of stairs And I never fully get back up I always try to listen to your thoughts But now their invading my mind More than ever before Now your back inside my arms I guess Spraynard was right Life Is Something To Laugh About! Because we're trying to keep a balance in our lives More than ever before And it's already starting to hurt my head And when I pick you up You always throw me down a hard set of stairs And I never fully get back up

I just thought I should apologize for all the things that I never meant to do Your mind is under rainbows somehow but my face is still blue I never meant to give you off as someone that you were not And I'm not doing too hot. I just thought I should apologize for ruining both of our lives Oh wait I spoke too soon I should get a clue because I'm making me wanna die And you're so cool How are you so cool And the worst part is Is that I can't stop emphasizing That perfect night It was the time of my life They say that new leafs turnover But I don't want the wind to blow.

Absolutely 02:44
Why do we have to go to North Carolina with him? Why can't we just stay back and watch the sun set and rise? I'm getting fed up with your talks about leaving this town And going on, when there's nothing to go on for There's a big storm coming up I can feel it in my bones And I'm never giving up on you You can try to shake me year after year But I'll keep coming back for more Maybe this is just a big joke to you And you don't really care how I feel But blood's been split since I last saw you And I've given a whole new meaning to sad There's a big storm coming up I can feel it in my bones And I'm never giving up on you You can try to shake me year after year But I'll keep coming back for more

Sometimes 02:34
Have I gained any knowledge from my actions Can I say that everything I do is right Has she made up her mind on whether or not to move on Can I be anymore awkward Sometimes I feel like dieing sometimes I hate myself Sometimes I'd rather be alone than be jealous of everyone Sometimes I feel like nothing Sometimes I wish I didn't know her Sometimes I think of ways to get rid of everything f my life was perfect I wouldn't change a thing But isn't that last part just obvious You could say I'm under the weather Or you could say I wanna disappear Sometimes I feel like dieing sometimes I hate myself Sometimes I'd rather be alone than be jealous of everyone Sometimes I feel like nothing Sometimes I wish I didn't know her Sometimes I think of ways to get rid of everything Sometimes I feel like dieing sometimes I hate myself Sometimes I'd rather be alone than be jealous of everyone Sometimes I feel like nothing Sometimes I wish I didn't know her This is a story about how I hate everything

She lives a thousand miles away from here Maybe she will come some time next year I still think she loves me all the same And better yet I still think she is not insane I keep on twirling inside my head Wondering why I still seem to get on by And without your thoughts, I'd be sure as dead As I walk past the park off Kearsarge Way Cheap clothing districts lie below her apartment She's got five fucking patches on her favorite jeans I always loved her from the start when we met back in Toronto And I'm gonna quit this life if she doesn't move back I keep on twirling inside my head Wondering why I still seem to get on by And without your thoughts, I'd be sure as dead As I walk past the park off Kearsarge Way

Don't complain to me You're the reason you're stuck in this house You came here on your own It's not like I'm going to do anything about it I really like you But you don't know that At least for now The sun burns my eyes As I wake up in a cold sweat Lies bounce back in forth Inside my war torn mind It's not like I tried It's not like I ever Try But now I'm putting this 12 inch on repeat And I hope to god that I'm still awake Because the sky's so gray Just be fucking blue All my plants are dead And I don't give a shit about you Please tell me That this was all a dream But I know it wasn't Just look at me and all you'll see is gone She made me move Out of my own fucking house! That was just a metaphor For all of those lost solemn nights I will now live free And I'll try not to die young But all I know is nothing As I'm forever unlucky Because the sky's so gray Just be fucking blue All my plants are dead And I don't give a shit about you Please tell me That this was all a dream But I know it wasn't Just look at me and all you'll see is gone
