clear my head / it’s not over yet / a few more drinks and i’ll be home again / this small town heart / oh these big city dreams / there’s another world out there for me / but all i know is letting go / yes all i know is letting go / put a record on / until i fall asleep / i want to dream about rock n roll and james dean / but it’s not happening / i’m fading fast / the last thing i remember is the bottom of that glass / cause all i know is letting go / yes all i know is letting go / i’m coming home / can’t go this alone / all i know is i need you

it's alright to tell me / what you think about me / i won't try and argue / or hold it against you / i know that you're leaving / you must have your reasons / the season is calling / your pictures are falling down / the steps that i retrace / the sad look on her face / the timing and structure / did you hear who fucked her / a day late a buck short / i'm writing the report / on losing and failing / when i move i'm flailing now / it happened once again / i'll turn to a friend / someone that understands / sees through the master plan / everybody's gone / and i've been here for too long / to face this on my own / well i guess this is growing up / maybe i'll see you / at a movie sneak preview / you'll show up and walk by / on the arm of that guy / and i'll smile and you'll wave / we'll pretend it's okay / the charade it won't last / when he's gone / i won't come back

take my photos all down no one wants them around 
with that fake smile on my face
with tears in your eyes you’ll finally realize the kind of toll it takes 
no one’s ever prepared for death 
even when it’s on your doorstep staring you in the eye
I’ll do my best to meet you in the middle 
though admit it’s kinda hard to gamble with things like life and death
missing you is the hardest thing I’ll ever have to do
and if I’m headed off now maybe somehow this song will do you well 
only time will tell

I've been working all day 
for half a day's pay just wanna come home to you
I've been working long days 
and these lines in my face remind me that soon I'll be gone
I love the city I love the sea but I can’t help but wanna leave 
along that old county line like someone's chasing after me 
I'd like to sleep enjoy a drink maybe write late into the night 
in some run-down town where no one's ever heard of me
I fell asleep the Summer heat with the radio playing 
my favorite song as if it knew I just needed to sing along
sure life is short and times are tough but you can't go on giving up
hear you me my friend you and I make our own means to an end
I've been working long days
and these lines in my face remind me to live for today

this just might be the last song I ever write 
till I take to growing up and treating you right
we’ll move away from this mess and tend to ourselves
put those dreams in some dirt and plant them on the shelf
there’s no telling what lies on the other side
we’re born to believe we deserve this right to breathe
it’s tearing me down these words I bleed 
when no one knows the difference between heart and apathy
stay with me stay true this house ain’t a home without you

I am a good man and have been most my life
though naive to the evil hid deep inside some people
like a good friend and ex-lover hell-bent on keeping secrets under cover 
oh lord I'm afraid it's true 
I won't be made a fool on all accounts
see I loved her then he fucked her right after she fucked me over
the only problem beyond reason lies in the unforgiving truth
when I see them again I swear I'll shove it down their goddamn throats
oh lord I'm an honest man oh lord I am honest
I hope that they both lie alone in the middle of the night 
and realize the damage that hides behind both their eyes
the mistrust and disgust is bound to catch on up 
while they're lying face down in the filth where they made their own bed

we grew up inside of parking lots 
hanging outside of car windows 
while the radio exclaimed 
just how hard it would be to leave 
when all we wanted was to go
we fell in love with the first one who would 
and held hands on the hill behind our high school
we kissed so hard that it made our lips bleed
so afraid that this feeling might leave
this empty orchestra rings out in my head 
louder than the words you swore you never said
we were drunk off cheap vodka and cigarettes
snuck around having sex in our friend's apartments
this might be the end of everything

like an old country song we've been singing for far too long 
picking at our stitches shooting stars and wishes oh when will change come? 
we hurt for hope that ain’t there while our friends well they just don’t care 
we tire of this way of living burnt out on grieving we've all got guilt to bare 
the rain came down 
hurricane it came around 
it made no difference 
we lost them in the wreckage 
while the rain came down 
well what can we truly do with some white male middle class blues? 
we're tired of feeling hopeless, worn out and restless, have we done just all we can?

we can lie awake waiting on the sunrise 
we can lie awake waiting on our own demise 
we are lying to ourselves to counteract 
all the lying that’s been done behind our back 
all this time I thought I’d be the one to let you down 
all this time I thought we’d be sure to figure it out 
the tables they turn when you got your back against the wall 
promises kept well they meant nothing no nothing at all 
I’ve been down I've been down this road before 
I’m still searching for a better way to live 
all you’ve bled will never amount to the times you’ve tried 
to hold your breath we’ll never make it out of this alive

this apathy is killing me 
kids these days if only they could see how it used to be 
sure I used to be a melodramatic tragedy 
but I knew right from wrong and how to get along with reality 
this apathy is killing me 
kids these days if only they could see how it used to be 
maybe I'm still a kid, lost and wandering
