i wanna know your love but i'm just mopped in soggy answers
it makes no difference when every week is new years eve
echo chamber warrior with a big ole' feel for laying around
still feel nothing for you cause my head is weighing towards the ground
Oo whoo hoo hoo, oh woo hoo hoo, oh whoo hoo hoo, oh woo hoo hoo
Maybe i can get down like that
get busy like i'm in the city the city the city
but just a flash in the pan a cathartic release
i wanna have big plans you wanna have no ends
i wanna have big plans you wanna rear you're head
i wanna have big plans i'm sick of these idle hands
you wanna have no ends you want
oh whoo hoo hoo, oh woo hoo hoo, oh whoo hoo hoo, oh woo hoo hoo
and when you're slaving away for some minimum pay
and you wanna knock off but you know that you need the cash
when the one that you love's walking right out the door
for the things that you said that you know that you can't take back
when the name of the game is attacking the pain
and you can't land a punch and you fall back on your ass
when you're sick and you're drunk and you wanna go home
but you know that you can't let your family see what's left
oh whoo hoo hoo, oh woo hoo hoo, oh whoo hoo hoo, oh woo hoo hoo
take your lumps and shudder, a love goes undercover, with a hate that stands real tall
hit me with a headshot, circle round the deadspots, buzzards beck and call
cause i'm dying when it seems you're doing okay, and i'm dying when i'm here all alone
and you were lying to my face when you said don't ever change, cause i've never felt so small
holy roller stutter, but i can't even cover the holes left in my head
sitting in the water boat without a rudder shipwreck left for dead
cause i'm dying when it seems you're doing okay, and i'm dying when i'm here all alone
and i was lying to my face when i said i needed a change, cause i've never felt so small
okay i think i've figured it out, a lie i tell to everyone else, but i'm still waiting for some luck
wanna feel okay with myself, but know i feel like someone else, trap door i never figured it out
wanted to clear my head, and we were never perfect but this lonely walk's got me caught on things from yesterday
we were silent in the kitchen, we were smoking in your car, you were hiding in the basement, but your parents knew for sure
we were lying in my bedroom, when i didn't know your name, wanna feel your love up, don't wanna feel this pain
when i broke your roommate's mirror, and i blamed it on my friends, none of us remember, so we watch the story bend
don't wanna hurt you baby, but i think this is where it ends, cause you can't give me no options
hate to say these words but i miss you
hate to say these words but i miss you
hate to say these words but i miss you
hate to say these words but i miss you
Lying awake in the ditch I dig, run it back up the stairs
Riding through the warm old fog that's tangled me for years
I've been stuck on something, Been gone so long
Hold me in its arms and give me flesh and blood
Stepping in the mud again, splash my back time to pretend
I am on and I will win, in my youth and in my head
I just wanna be like you, never caught between green and blue
Seem to lose the happenstance, cut my teeth on ritalin
You say you don't know but you tell me anyway
You say you can't go but I see you there
I'm almost crying, I'm almost crying
So just tell what did I say, I just want a redo
Thought that you were my friends, but I never see you
So just tell what did I say, I just wanna redo
Thought that you were my friends
(You say you don't know but you tell me anyway
You say you can't go but I see you there
I'm almost crying, I'm almost crying)
These things take time
Take my time, take my time
If it's a part of who you are
Don't know the words but I got the scars
Wanna step back like who are you
All on my own with nothing to prove
If it's a part of who you are
Don't know the words but I got the scars
Wanna step back like who are you
All on my own with nothing to lose
a glorious mess
we wake and we find our best
a partial mask
fades in the morning trap and you're still
taking your pictures, watching the floor, sitting in traffic in newark
semi's on fire, my boot weighs a ton, woke up this morning and got a gun
garden state, roll me away, take me to beaches, cover my hate
i've been afraid, of what i might say, is it too real or is it passing
But time won't wait
sat in my car as you're walking away
cause i can't face my problems when something's at stake
and i know that you're tired and i know that you're weak
cause i feel the same way can't stand up to the heat
in the Florida sun, as we sat on that beach
watched it all fall down
watched it all fall down
wanna find words that don't sit like the others
cause nothing i've said can put wind in your sails
to change your direction right back to before
with eyes wide at coffee like how do we know
late nights i call you but no one picks up
so i'll just lay here and stare at the wall
running through big sky country
ernie's grinning through his teeth
plane's blinking and it fades in star light
your body aches and it's hard to sleep
heard casino's running wild
heard his mother's feeling weak
hopscotch and needles under sneakers
when Jesus comes we will be at his feet
but the martyr fakes it
and the saints get stricken down
wash away sin but it's spit right back
and i just wanna find a way to take your love and turn it all back round
just wanna find a way to say...
goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
running too far, i've been frustrated
running too fast, i've been sedated
running too far, i've been frustrated
running too fast, i've been sedated
(things you build inside till they all come round)
(things you build inside till they all spill out)
(things you build inside till they all come round)
(things you build inside till they all spill out)
the martyr fakes it
and the saints get stricken down
wash away sin but it's spit right back
and i just wanna find a way to take your love and hold it for another
day when i'm falling out, draw the shades and hiding under covers
how can we define ourselves when all we have is faith in one another
how come we can't find the words to say
goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
running through big sky country
an exodus or a summer treat
sun beaming in the cracks in plaster
till Jesus comes we will be on our knees
passed out on the couch again
feeling like the end of days is fast apporaching
crick my neck and curl my toes in
but i want to let my hair down
wanna feel the light, the love, the rush
of all the people i can barely stand
a perfect way to turn your frown around
to finally say the things you couldn't say out loud
in the morning you might find you're not too proud
what kind of person could ask for more
friday night's even so we settle the score
falling asleep under highway lights
yeah...
think you're so easy
but what's your choice?
crack night open and lose my voice
cigarettes sips take on the weight of everything else
and i'm so excited
fate rewinded
i wanna feel something more
than just my heavy eyelids
round the margins
but talk is all that it is
waist deep and bottled up, trace the line down through my chest
eyes laid on a new day, or time to regress
my morning reprieve gives way at the seams then i'm struck, then i'm stuck in mud
with lilacs that loom in the darkness
with liquor and love in my heart
with Ritalin and Reds, they mess with my head, but somehow i feel more alive
sticks and stones and the weight of your bones are the things that we carry
through highschool, to heartache, to college, culdesac Dreams
rather lay in your bed than have your face turn red cause you know you always say the wrong thing
this migraine has lasted for hours
this comedown has lasted for days
when the weight of the world falls down at your door you need a pick-me-up to tip it your way
no honor in our crumbling standards
but the mirror stands to shoot dirty looks
i hate myself, i'd face myself but i ain't got the guts to just
stand in my heart and stare on
with lilacs that loom in the darkness
with liquor and love in my heart
with Ritalin and Reds, they mess with my head, but somehow i feel more alive
but lilacs don't bloom in the darkness
and liquor don't put love in your heart
and Ritalin and Reds, they fuck with my head
but i guess i knew that from the start
yeah, i guess i knew that from the start
well your whole life has been billed to this moment
but you stutter and the moment has passed
you think how could i hold such gold in my hand
well for people like us it don't last
and the morning is fast approaching
i can see the glimmer of light
when you're caught on the things you used to be
you think "God, could i have one more night?"
you think "God, could i have one more night?"
i read your face and it looked you said you don't know me
well the years they go by and the bruises they start to add up
cement the cruise control riding around on my highway
and the exits they come and they go but i never get off
and the kindness you show don't matter to me cause i'm angry
and i bark and i bite at the people who i love the most
when you're over the hill and you know the best days are behind you
it's hard not to wallow when you know that you've let them down
taking another drag
holding your deepest breath
wondering when things will change, they have to get better
but everybody's moving on
writing stained on the wall
and i all i can think about is the shit that got stuck in my head
you're stuck in my head
stuck in my head...
