Here you goGiving me pieces and partsThe cheapest parts from the shittiest placesAnd theres no guarantee youll make it home with meIm not like you I get comfortableIm not like you I get comfortableShut up! Shut up! Shut up!Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!Im not like you I get comfortableIm not like you I get comfortableSometimes what you give you returnFor what you get.Sometimes what you give for what you get just isnt worth it.

You never missed a word I tried to fitInside a chorus inside a verse all my intros and the bridgeThats where I put all the awful things I think I amAnd if you still respect me I guess Ill have a second chanceI want my hands in your hairI want my hands in your hairPulling your face closerI told you last night you gave me butterfliesYou surprise me with new cocoons everytime they start to flyI instantly felt like an idiotEmbarrassed of the person controlling my mouthMy mouth its always in a meleeFiguring out how as it talksYour response was comfortingI guess I gave you butterflies tooI want my hands in your hairI want my hands in your hairPulling your face closerand closerand closerand closerand closerand closerand closerYou never missed a word I tried to fitInside a chorus inside a verse all my intros and the bridgeThats where I put all the awful things I think I amAnd if you still respect me I guess Ill have a second chanceYou never missed a word I tried to fitInside a chorus inside a verse all my intros and the bridgeThats where I put all the awful things I think I amAnd if you still respect me I guess Ill have a second chance

You were only there because you shared DNAYou wore a mask but I could read your eyesYou were spared the trouble of being an audienceYou reflect to the good times the only times you caredYesterday it was a casket full of loss and loveToday its a safe full of money and funTomorrow will always be yesterdays lunchThe critic wants to be a writerThe archaeologist never thought shed be digging gravesEverybody wants more when they already have someEverybody wants some more of that someUntil nobody remembers yesterdays lunchIt doesnt matter that you succeededBecause youll never feel youll never feel.Youre always looking out for your futureBut you have as much future as the sands of SaharaI tried to find a mirage of an oasisIt doesnt matter nothing is stirring in the weedsEverybody wants a lot when theres only enoughThe loss the love the money the funAnd a pound gained from yesterdays lunchIt doesnt matter that you succeededBecause youll never feel youll never feel.Its not enough that you succeededbecause youll never feel because youll never feel.Its not enough that you succeededbecause youll never feel because youll never feelBecause youll never feel successful until all of your friends fail

I found the pack of cigarettes that you were always quittingYou always leave a mess purging your pockets in the laundryAll your clothes were donated because none of them fit meMy legs are too longThe thrift store is so cold and the service is lousyI want to punch the clerks lights out as he accepts the shirtThat was a present and the first time that I ever spent moneyI was two or three counting on my fingersI shouldve bought you a drinkThe events move faster than I can show my angerI want to practice my contempt to not be pushed overI tell your story like a thrifty bookWith the previous owner who highlighted the parts they liked the most

I feel like youve died and I want you backBut I know that I will never see you againWalking around trying to keep my mouth shutWhile the pity piles upWhile the pity piles upLike a goddamn dog with its tail between its legsAshamed of trying to butter up your obituaryAt least I can say I tried with you At least I can say I tried with you

Youre wide awake before the alarm starts ringingThe house is coldI know the feeling of wishing the sun would rise fasterIm doing alright (alright alright)Im doing alright (alright alright)Im doing alright (alright alright)Alright alright alrightIve always been so bad at thisLetting you know how much you mean to meI cant resistI cant resistI cantI cant resistI cant resistI cantIm sorry if that way of thinkingHas kept you from all of your dreamingI cant resistI cant resistI cantI cant resistI cant resistI cantWith a little bit of luck the sun will rise fasterIm doing alright (alright alright)Im doing alright (alright alright)Im doing alright (alright alright)Alright alright alright

You shouldve laid the clothes you were to rest in peace withOut for the people doing the buryingTheyre going to spend hours trying to decide what you wouldve chosen what you wouldve chosen.A big heart with a failing mindAn appetite for moonshineIf you believe in god and the saints of heavens gateA hawaiian t-shirt might look badIf youre expecting judgement dayA big heart with a failing mindAn appetite for moonshineBut every funny guy has a serious sideBut every funny guy has a serious sideBut every funny guy has a serious sideBut every funny guy has a serious sideBut every funny guy has a serious sideBut every funny guy has a serious side

Never point unless its your thumbs to your chestIts a small frame but someone has to fill itIts a small frame but someone has to fill itLike adolescents showing their adulthoodWhile their friends sniff their fingers behind the bleachersAnything anything for a round of applausefor a round of applausefor a round of applausefor a round of applausefor a round of applausefor a round of applause

Jet fuel and traffic lines Pulling up to the delta signs Distant shape of my hometown Black stain where the wheels touch down I pick up the morning news I pass the man who's never shined my shoes Through security and to the train That will take me to the airplane Count the miles on the highway ( ...
