I love you my darling you're all that keeps my going
Your nature's so sweet it's like candy one taste would keep me
And if you ever left me I don't know what would be left of me, but with you I never worry of insignificant things that bug me
Of all the guys you've seen I don't know why I'm the one that stood out
So take me, embrace me; don't let go just kiss me taste me
I love you my darling so don't get mad at this my request
I love you and you love me but I think you should get tested for STDs
You're all that I think of, if I'm without you I'm without love
I'd think you're an angel but angels like you don't fly low
And while we're enamored the rest of the world will clamor for a piece of what we've got but that won't bother us we won't stop
Bring the best out in each other when I'm with you there is no other
Hell, I'd like to thank your mother for giving birth to a perfect daughter
Of all your whole family you've got the looks and personality
I love when we fake wrestle
Your parents must be retarded, you're special
It's too bad you slept around
Before me you were on the ground
I picked you up and dust you off
But I don't want my dick to rot and fall off

Each morn the day starts the struggle begins between me and myself
When the fear kicks in I just keep thinking all of this has to stop
One day I rejoice thinking of all the different people I've helped
But now i just need to bring myself out of this unending rut
Realize my mind swings like a monkey from branch to branch
If i could slow down I'd realize all the qualities in myself
But rather block them with every stimulant I get my hands on
And wallow deep in this despair I've created all on my own
So breathe deep for me
Count 1, 2, 3
Go inwards with feelings and focus on just being
All of life is freeing your mind from caving
No moments left for saving
You'll find peace soon
And the world starts shining just a little different everyday
And the more I try to bottle it up the more it slips away
So you take what you can handle, let the rest just roll right off your back
But it gets a little harder when your focus turns to things that you lack
One day I hope I'll realize all past event no longer exist
And it will cause me to wake up and accept life as it is
After i sweep up the pieces of my soul desire's left behind
Then i can grow to face this wretched existence with a clear mind
And the world starts shining just a little different everyday
And the more I try to bottle it up the more it slips away
So you cherish what you choose no matter how it shaped your memories of past
But it always harder when your mind is stuck on what you cannot get back

Shouldn't I Be Happy??
03:48
|

I got a job that pays the bills so shouldn't I be happy
I got here from a strong sense of will so shouldn't I be happy
Got a family that loves, cares, and that would kill so shouldn't I be happy
Got American Dreams pouring out my gills so shouldn't I be happy
Got a tolerance that could blow off the roof so shouldn't I be happy
Got a criminal record but they aint got no proof so shouldn't I be happy
I've loved and lost more than can shake a stick so shouldn't I be happy
There's a naked girl next to me as i write this so shouldn't I be happy
All the world will fake like the population's happy
Making those of us feel more like we don't belong
See their smiling faces selling pills, castrate the masses
Fat on American Dreams; empty, hollow, Zoloft masses
(Swingers: "You wake up everyday and it hurts a little bit less and then you wake up one day and it doesn't hurt at all. It's like you almost miss the pain" - "You miss the pain??" - "Yeah because you've lived with it for so long")
On a warm summer day I'll sit with notepad in the shade
Thinking wonderful thoughts like how one day this will fade
Are we all meant to be like suited rats run through a maze
Could we all be artist and just create create create
I got this suit from a Brooks Bros store now don't it make me snappy
I wear it as I audit computers dont my job sound crappy
My coworkers all find this important work does that make them sappy
Got American Dreams pouring out my gills now shouldn't I be happy

You greet me like a long lost friend
Say it's been long, baby, let's pretend
Now you're smooth but you once were mean
You reach your prime when you turn 15
You turn me on when you're slightly cold
Keep my mind young but keep my soul old
You tease me darling if it's just one kiss
Know I can't stop when I sip your lips
Put on your glasses, get some ice my friend
Tonight we pour this one to you
Take out the good times and the merriment
Before you've killed that all too
Pass you the next day in the living room
Our friendship's clouded by the fog of gloom
Won't talk for hours, keep it to ourselves
Our looks are chilled but we're warmed by the hell
Let's go backwards, where did this begin
Last night we cherished like it was the end
But not we hesitate, is it all done
One more drink won't hurt anyone
You ruin me just as you soothe me
It's how you make me burn that makes sure I return
But I see through you
See that you're pointless too
So I abuse you
So the cycle will ensue

Everything is Clear
04:09

Let's lay out in the road dear
And think of how we got here
As cars go whizzing by we'll just catch each other's eyes
And everything comes clear
Let's smell a field of rose dear
I'll be grateful I've got you near
I won't let go your hand until you tell me I'm your man
And repeat year after year
I know that times I've told you that I need some time alone
And seem to disrupt everything that makes our home our home
It's not so simple dear
It's not as if I ran
You think that I'm so great, don't want you to know just how bad I really am
Let's steal a car and crash it
After we make off like bandits
As we drive off in that cliff I know we'll remember this
As the world leaves in our rear view
I know that times I've told you that I just need time alone
And seem that we've built on a shakey foundation that holds our home
It's complicated dear
Like the crisis in Iran
You think I'm so docile don't want you to know just how explosive I am
So we've start this journey off
And we're just at the beginning
We disagree but win or loss
Your love and level head has gave us wings
I've never let someone this close (atleast with positive outcome)
And if you think that I'm the one
A flaw is just a quality you've yet to love
If I layed down at your grave dear
I'd just smile as if you're still here
Because a life that's lived with love already takes your soul above
Now everything is clear

Dancing Chic to Chic

Don't fret your hair-dyed head
I was ironic when i smiled
Just plant your checkered shoes and quip for awhile
I can tell that we go deep because we hate all the same things
Never reveal our true selves unless we're winking
Surface existence we lead
Dancing chic to chic
Sing along whilst they weep
Open minds with souls asleep
Oh snide hipster girl
Won't you let me in your world
Oh metro hipster guy
How'd you get those pants so tight
Hey there unique masses
With your unique black-rimmed glasses
Can I wear your scarf until your collective coldfront passes
Dont frey your studded belt
I liked them before radio
Saw them back about 5 years
The sound bad, you could barely hear
Don't these drugs just smell so great
Get that nasal drip taste
I've almost wrote my epic essay
On which pop culture is passe

You're an Asshole, Jimmy
04:38

Come closer little Jimmy let me tell you about the dream
Of how one day you'll meet a girl, the likes of which you've never seen
And all the hopes that you had conjured of the one that'd finally work
Slowly play out in a way that you're sure no one will get hurt
And certain moments and whole days occur where nothing could improve
Like how adorable the awkwardness when you first made your move
And everytime things feel familiar you just take it all in jest
Nobody's perfect (includes you) so what the hell did you expect
And now you've created a headspace where this probably could work
So dont be a jerk
Can we talk a minute James, I feel the need to unburden
All these thoughts that jammed up my own head and started it hurting
Those dreams that I had mentioned soared, burst, and then came crashing down
And now I feel I'm left a'floating cause I've forgotten how to drown
And the comfort I created evaporated into smoke
Is this a joke
Just don't try too hard next time
The less you put in the more you'll feel fine
Your sanity means more than love
If you believe this than you've given up
Please pay attention to me Jim I'm doing this for your own good
So you don't confuse what you can with all the things that you should
For fuck's sake I can't be the only one that's learned this more than once
I won't ever shake these hats, especially those titled Dunce
Now all those worries that surround me have tightened the noose
Just cut me loose
Just don't try too hard next time
The less you put in the more you'll feel fine
Your sanity means more than love
If you believe this than you've given up

I just dip in then I bounce
Shut the door before I hear her pout
In control, i don't let go
I get what I want and I never slow
I take just what I need from this
Dont talk to me, we'll never kiss
I came to you for just one thing
And when it's done, you know, your phone wont ring
You get just as much as me
You know I never quit until I please
So I don't see a problem here
If you don't have my number and I'm never there
This is the way that works best for me
No sweetness and no monogamy
So fill the roll you provide for me
The one who's calling for my booty
I do it again with authority
Got the call and now it's time for me to perform
A private show, it's like a nature show but with 20 toes
I get the kick i need for now
Such a fucking stud I should take a bow
I give no respect but get much from them
You couldn't handle me fatale or femme
Things were never meant to be
I dont see why we still can't bump uglies
So I don't see a problem here
If you don't have my number and I'm never there

If you weren't so vain I would compliment you
If you weren't so insane I would talk to you
If you weren't so horrible I would miss you
and if you weren't so ugly I would kiss you
Girls like you, they come and go
You better cherish me before it's all over
I'll thank you for leaving but I won't miss you
And if you weren't so ugly I would kiss
On the lips, give you my syphillis and let you taste the pain
On the lips, give you my syphillis and let you go insane
Things won't ever quite be the same
Unprovoked kisses make you seem like you're a dame but then you're ugly again
If you weren't so vain I would compliment you
If you weren't so insane I would talk to you
If you weren't so horrible I would miss you
and if you weren't so ugly I would kiss you
On the lips, give you my syphillis and let you taste the pain
On the lips, give you my syphillis and let you go insane
Things won't ever quite be the same
Unprovoked kisses make you seem like you're a dame but then you're ugly again
Maybe in time you'll be forgiven
But father time has bastard children

Why fear the site of the coming moon
When the sun is right there in front of you
Why trim the beard that hangs down from you
When it's your head that you're gonna lose
And you lose...
So stand tall and rise up
Raise a fist with me
Appreciate all around you and love what you see
There are those that might spite you, bring you down with me
There's no use to be jaded when there's much more to see
So let the 4 horsemen ride and fire rain in the sea
As long as I've got sarcasm it's a site to see
If the world falls away does it mean that I can't play
In the ashes and ruins that made this place great
And it's great
So stand tall and rise up
Raise a fist with me
Appreciate all around you and love what you see
There are those that might spite you, bring you down with me
There's no use to be jaded when there's much more to see

One glance, one look, one fucking kiss
Is all it took to get me back to this
No chance, no hope, no purpose too
New friend, lost love, one more girl I've screwed
Because I've never met a lady that I couldn't charm
It's just I tend to lose all interest when the night gets long
Wake up holding and caressing some new stranger's rack
But now I'm sober, it's too late for me to take that back
The next day, new light , and a different mind
Fresh look, eyes dead, sorry sweets they're mine
Instincts all wrong, this time I'll tough it out
Interest all gone, let's see how this plays out
Because the ones that pull me in always turn out wrong
But I committed and was smitten now I have these thorns
Stuck to my side but that's not always the one I show
To my next victim and that's just how the cycle goes
You met me, we flirted, you bought that nice guy act
I'm just a shit whose been burned
You'll help get over that
I've dug a hole too deep and want to get out clean
Won't break it off, let's hope you will when you see the real me
I'm just a jerk that got lucky, found my true love twice
It was a ruse, a dirty trick, got steamed for it like rice
But now I'm done, I'm off, I'm out
Just got to cut one more
I'll just be myself, vulgar, vain, and jaded to the chore
It's funny how these things all come full circle
When you're bored of drugs and drink and find a girl to cling to
You come back to what you hate
Commitment, jealousy
And now your life is John Cusack in High Fidelity

Mortal Distraction
04:06
|

|
Have you ever pondered
That one day we'll cease to exist
Our perception of reality and consciousness will go up in smoke
Does it make you worry
Like all the anxiety that it's caused me
I'm so scared we're doomed to go on forever and ever again
The other day I realized
When an epiphany crept behind me
We are meant to be happy but all of it's temporary
While we sputter and spit everything just an excuse to keep our minds off of
Dwelling on the sad truth that there's no end
So what will become of us
This whole damn thing feel like one fucking big distraction
We just drift through days and days with no rhyme and no reason
Our whole damn lives feel like repellants and attractions
Until we realize existence is based on distraction
And if I think that there's no end
I admit that there's beginning
Just like we're all products God made up in factory
And if I know that I don't know the point
I know that there's one out there
And I'm too small to comprehend where it starts and how it ends
I'll read the bible, I'll read Koran
Just tell me how it's gonna end
I'll be real good, i can pretend
Just tell me how it's gonna end
I'll praise your name and bring a friend
Just tell me how it's gonna end
Just give me peace, I'll comprehend
and tell me how it's gonna end
