Come and find me
I'm sitting a top East 9 Drive
Waiting for my girl to come
The city skies are bleak
As the gray clouds turn to black
And everyone is gone
I stand against the horizon
The sun shining through the clouds
But there's no one here but me
The ground shatters
The Earth cracks
The cracks on my lips age me back
The rips in my jeans
The holes in my shirt
They all live in harmony
But you wouldn't know of this
Because you haven't seen me in over a month
The days turn to weeks
As we go about our lives
The story progresses
As the tear drops from the sky
Fall in my arms and all around me
The record playing in that white house suddenly goes blank
And the lights go one by one
The ground shatters
The Earth cracks
The cracks on my lips age me back
The rips in my jeans
The holes in my shirt
They all live in harmony
But you wouldn't know of this
Because you haven't seen me in over a month
The days turn to weeks
As we go about our lives
I stand against the horizon
The sun shining through the clouds
But there's no one here but me
The ground shatters
The Earth cracks
The cracks on my lips age me back
The rips in my jeans
The holes in my shirt
They all live in harmony
But you wouldn't know of this
Because you haven't seen me in over a month
The days turn to weeks
As we go about our lives

Shattered in pieces
My life in harmony
Brought up in conviction
That's life at seventeen
My life is yours
It always has been
My mother wipes the tears
And the pain eases
The night I fell for you
The night you fell for me
It was all just a big mistake
I should have never fallen into this trap
You brush over me
You know you played it wrong
I'm eating out my insides
'Cause I know I've fallen in love
Fortunately, the police have no reason
To care for me
Ruby/Jem stealing crooks
That's all they really care about
I silently weep back and forth
My mind fixed on what I know and love
The night I fell for you
The night you fell for me
It was all just a big mistake
I should have never fallen into this trap
You brush over me
You know you played it wrong
I'm eating out my insides
'Cause I know I've fallen in love
The night I fell for you
The night you fell for me
It was all just a big mistake
I should have never fallen into this trap
You brush over me
You know you played it wrong
I'm eating out my insides
'Cause I know I've fallen in love

I always try to break my spine
To get us to intertwine
The close that I'll get to you
Is you eat all of my lubricant
The people around me
Keep on saying thing that are stupid
I'm in the ER
My head almost exploded from cupid
Mario asked us to restart
I said hold on, I need to fart
Shelby's crying "Cool story bro"
I'll stay in my room picking my nose
My friend said you two would be cute
I puked on her and said goodbye
And I wrote you a chorus
Letting you not to try
I spat when you told me
To wear a "Kelly Clarkson" shirt
I smiled when I met you
And I laughed when you were single
Mario asked us to restart
I said hold on, I need to fart
Shelby's crying "Cool story bro"
I'll stay in my room picking my nose

Black and white tiles
Sprawled across the floor
Seem to be looking
And staring at me
Nothing more that I can do
In this dusty old apartment
The TV's on
And I see your staring at it
Why are you still here?
The rusted walls of that old apartment
Are coming down, any day now
Check it out now
I'm screaming lies
Right before your
Uncertain eyes
Never second guess
ME!
I was always
There for you
15 years later
Nothing's changed
In this damned house
Windows are leaking
And your seeking me
I don't know what to do
But look at you, why are you still here?
I could have never guessed it now
But the rain has finally dried up
Check it out now
I'm screaming lies
Right before your
Uncertain eyes
Never second guess
ME!
I was always
There for you

Yelling Lies
05:00
|

What happened to the Good Life?
What happened to out life
I guess it was all led by lies
A dreaming thought I believed to be true
I still stand there
In that brown-ash room
Reading over memories
That for so long
I conceived as true
I picked up that old record
That slept years on that dust floor
The slightest river
Of bright blue bled into an ocean
A lake from view
Shouting from a distance
Whispering in your ear
It never really mattered
Like the color of your hair
And if you haven't really been thinking about it
And I have always really been thinking about it
The keys you stole from my desk
The house you left me homeless
I pace myself in circles
Avoiding the pot holes
Listening to your song
I heard you sing
My bright blue eyes
Grew shy with shame
I still stand there
In that brown-ash room
Reading over memories
That for so long
I conceived as true
I picked up that old record
That slept years on that dust floor
The slightest river
Of bright blue bled into an ocean
A lake from view
Shouting from a distance
Whispering in your ear
It never really mattered
Like the color of your hair
And if you haven't really been thinking about it
And I have always really been thinking about it
The keys you stole from my desk
The house you left me homeless

Life Is Gone
03:11

Living it up in my room 20 hours a day
Playing with the circuits
Knocking myself out cold
Who knows where we are
The lights flicker out
Clouds role in from far where the rain trickles down
The windows are cracked
Thunder in the skies is making me believe
I should have stayed home
The puddles around my feet have been slightly increasing
In depth
I walked with you on that night awhile ago
Hoping for some answers that I've been searching for
I never thought it would ever lead to this
Trapped in my shitty room after all of this
Life is gone
Thunder in the skies is making us believe
We should have stayed home
The puddles around our feet have been slightly increasing
In depth
Life Is Gone

Gray House
Dim lights
Nothing could ever feel so right
Water still leaks
From the roof above
Inside my house
I find myself an armchair
A broken room so filled with thought
Pain torn from anger slips out here
A curse never be told
Falling darkness
Surrounds that crimson-red house
The glow of candles
Light my window sills with white
Cool breeze
Winter's on its way
No more sunny days at home
I find myself an armchair
A broken room so filled with thought
Pain torn from anger slips out here
A curse never be told
I find myself an armchair
A broken room so filled with thought
Pain torn from anger slips out here
A curse never be told
And everyone's love for him has gone

Coming out of my cage
And smoking all of the bath salts
I just pre-ordered my casket
I sift through all the pages
Inside your book
And now we're stabbing it
With pencils
I cut off all of the wires
With scissors
I burned all of the metal
With fire
The timer has no sand at the top
There's blood all over the rocks
I came here to destroy it
Put it on a grill and fry it
I'm writing on the paper
I'm shutting off the TV
I'm destroying all the destruction
(I never had to begin)
I'm closing all the windows
(It's too fucking hot in here)
I'm crushing all of the bottles
(And I'm breaking all of the glasses)
And I'm not going to fuck about who to be with
(About who to be with)
I came here to destroy it
Put it on a grill and fry it
I'm writing on the paper
I'm shutting off the TV
I'm shutting off the TV

En Route

Today
We are leaving home
On a starry skied blue night
Searching for ourselves
We hope to find our way
The road maps are fine
The current flows East to West
Inside my heart lives yours
The love grows and grows until
It finds a way
Sacred meanings written on the walls
Try to tell us to turn around
But we walk right though them
Trying to get further from this town
I'm on my way to find you
I've been searching for three days
And I know it will be alright
I hope you know that I'm for you
Sacred meanings written on the walls
Try to tell us to turn around
But we walk right though them
Trying to get further from this town
Sacred meanings written on the walls
Try to tell us to turn around
But we walk right though them
Trying to get further from this town
We have left home

It's All In Here!
03:31
|

Listen here
This ain't no shit
I'm sick of all this tiring shit
I don't know how to put it
But there once was a time
Where we both understood each other
And I'm now moving on to different places
And hoping it gets better
But we both know that I could change
At this very instant
All is gone forever
But not today!
Walking through the halls
Of an abandoned house
Reading through the riddle
I finally get it
You don't want me back
Grasping on to the air
Like a bird flys over head
I finally get it so clearly now
The end is ever so near
All is gone forever
I guess it's today!
I don't see it through
But you don't have to
See it differently than I do
I don't see it through
For you
It's gets me so fucking angry!
But I know I should stay calm
The anger rages inside me
I wish I could go home

Fine, Don't Believe Me
03:00
|

You know you mean everything to me
I know you don't see it this way
Broken lips and shattered sky lines
Pierce my mind
The memory fades and it dies
I know it's gonna happen
It's happened to me before
Don't even think about lying
I know when you tell the truth
I live in this toxic world
With nothing to believe
False writing tells all
For I have gotten from you
False writing tells all
No shit, dumbass!
I have answered to your calls
I know it's gonna happen
It's happened to me before
Don't even think about lying
I know when you tell the truth
I live in this toxic world
With nothing to believe
I know it's gonna happen
It's happened to me before
Don't even think about lying
I know when you tell the truth
I live in this toxic world
With nothing to believe
