I haven't seen you in a while now 
Thinking about you really brings me down 
I heard you're out of the hospital gown 
But you're still too fucked for me to be around 

I've felt old since I was a kid 
How did I inherit this morbid shit? 
Manic depression, bi-polar II 
Or just another 20-something with nothing to do 

School has been over for eternity 
Now I work until 5:30 
Would my grandparents be proud of my degree? 
Does my dog smell defeat on me? 

I've felt old since I was a kid 
How did I inherit this morbid shit? 
Manic depression, bi-polar II 
Or just another 20-something with nothing to lose

20-Something

Like a puréed fruit 
My time in the blender has changed me 
I just need time to regroup 
I'll get it together eventually 

Will you trim away the grey from my green thumb 
Would you love me without this young cum 
How would you feel if I lost all my hair 
When I'm a walking corpse, will you still care 

What rough beast 
Its hour come round at last 
Slouches toward Poughkeepsie 
To be born 
Sips a tallboy 
Charges a phone 
On the way from New York 
Via Metro-North 

It took me a year to write this song 
26 now but I won't be for long

Young Blood

I like the taste of beer on your lips 
But I worry about you in between sips 
I sit to your left and brood quietly 
Because I know each drop is a piece of me 

I try to forget this OCD 
Because in three months you're gonna leave me 
Tell me it will be ok 
Queens isn't that far away 

I just wanna rest my head on your king-sized bed 

You know me so well now 
You think you've got me figured out 
I cover my lips to hush the sound 
But these words just come pouring out 

I just wanna rest my head on your king-sized bed 
I can only rest my head on your king-sized bed 

I've seen beauty in your flaws, your family, and your dogs 
I've found that living in regret will only make this harder 

I can only rest my head

Deepest/Darkest

I've lived a life that I'm not ashamed of 
I've known darkness and I've known love 
Done things that my parents never did 
I've raised dogs like I would kids 

I am standing at the precipice 
With a crumpled dollar in my fist 
Pants are filled with so much piss 
Is this what it's like being 26? 

I've made art just to be dismissed 
Had my heart broken by a kiss 
I've been burned by friends that didn't care 
But I still put myself out there 

I am standing at the burning bridge 
And here I thought I was just a kid 
Thrust into the world from the tit 
Is this what it's like being 26? 

I've been hurt by my own mother 
But I swear that I still love her 
I'll be on the playground after school 
Somewhere in time, we're still kids swimming in my pool
