Can't get your shit together
it's the same old tired lines
fast approaching the collision
to go head on through midlife
thinking back to what we'd do
we must have seen like such dumb fools
trying so hard to be someone
when you just don't have a clue
Youth Attack the nineties ugly fast and loud
There ain't no way you're
just not fooling anyone
your shit's gone on for too long
there's just too much damage done
your best times have all come and gone
Intrusive thoughts keep you awake
you pour your life straight down the drain
make sure no one ever knows you might not be all that you say
forget the shit talk and the kids
the wife that hates the things you did
I don't know what was the reason why I always wasted time with you
You know where to find me when all your times run out
you're relentless
we're not friends
can't say I hate to see it end
all the fuck you's in this lifetime could never be enough for you

Head in the clouds
we'll travel dusted off like nothing matters
just a skipping stone's throw down to your old street
I'll pick you up on time
and we're gonna to take that ride
looking through your windows trying to see inside
there's something about the way they stop and stare on the street
we don't give a fuck what happens
inertia keeps you moving or standing still forever
no time for freak out trips man
cause every day's is a new jam
time is still never changing just feels so right
for now we run this town
and we're always gonna to be down
fucking with the cool kids
hang around all night

Ever After

Straight out of the movies
pulls off the look
you blink and you missed it
she's gone for good
with the saddest story you ever knew
wide-eyed with the best intentions
everlasting lonely stuck in the same old rut
does her best to save face swears nothing's wrong
bring it back around again yeah
it's the same old song
she falls hard too hurt to mention
ever after always unthinkable
she walks the walk
talks all paradoxical
laugh it off
it's all for the visual
always be that way to me
hopeless feeling helpless
heart feels condemned
nobody could choose this
it's all in her head
she's weary going through this
she goes again
always end up empty-handed
did you think there was some chance that this would turn out like you planned
no will to see it through
I guess she's got to understand the cycles spin in circles right down to the bitter end
she comes around

Empty head, what's the word
dumbstruck in that mind of yours
captivate the wrong kinds
bound to break that heart of hers
she's got eyes
the superficial kind
the world she sees ain't all like mine filler
lines just by her time customized right down to size
superficial accessorized
counterfeits fakes replicates
glassy looks not much to say
so good feeling so naive
cool headed like you can't believe
sorry being stupid approach you'd never understand talk so much about yourself brain vacation wasteland absolutely advertised

We said all that we could say
and it's just not fair
there's got to be a way
we say we're making changes
but the connotation just feels fake
just falling on your face
trying hard to fill the void
can't make it if you faked it with a bait and switch ploy
did you reach out for help
I know it's so hard to find a line sometimes
left to your own devices you self destruct your mind
and these unfamiliar voices are taking all your time
your whole life's in your hands
how did you let it all slip right by?
did you try?
anytime anywhere
I'll be there
it's something I swear
it don't pay to play the game it's much more than you can stand
do we live this whole thing again and again?
I just can't stand to lose another friend
tied down to the place where there's no hope left to feel
Watching days go by there's an unlimited supply
youth's just like a well that can't run dry
until you turn around one day you understand what they meant to say in time
but this lifestyle kills and you can't slow down
it's why the old familiar friends don't make a sound when there's nothing else left
will your new ones care to come around with you in the ground?
