Tonight’s the night, nothing else to do
(do you mind if I waste some of my time with you?)
We’re heading there now you can come through
(can you guys give me a lift or can I follow you?)
It’s a quarter to nine, it’s all that’s on my mind
Sitting in a broken chair, hoping you’ll soon be there
Tell me am I the game or can I be your player 2?
I can tell you’re leading me along
So I’ll stop listening
Cuz in the end you’ll never leave my chest bleeding
I’m far to grown to be your boy
Won’t get emotional
You had me going for a minute, but I’ve already seen this sad show
Once you’re finally here, you’re just on your phone
(I thought my friends were coming, I wish I would’ve known)
It took so long to get you alone
(I think you’re a liar you just wanna bone)
It’s a sad display of insecurity
Which if I’m being honest, usually comes from me
But not tonight, you just wanted to start some drama of your own
Do you remember the pictures that you sent to my phone?
Looks like I’ll be keeping those
Do you remember the pictures that you sent to my phone?
Stay on your toes, cuz I still got those

Is This Safe?

Sometimes I get anxious
I know there's no one around
That really cares about me
So what would stop them
From ripping out my entrails
And dumping the body
There's a knife
In my pocket
I wouldn't know how to use it
At a time like that
But fuck it, who cares
Maybe They'll use it on me
And end it quickly
I don't care for myself or anybody
But I'm still just as selfish
As someone like me could be
There's a knife in my pocket
At all times
You're probably right
Right to think
I'm out of my mind
I'm fucking out of my mind
Sometimes, I get desperate
For somebody to tell me what to do
But no, I don't mean that
Not gonna listen to you anyway
Every day we're facing something
There's so many ways to die
Something as little as tripping on the stair case
Could be the end of our fucking lives

Jim & Pam

I'm making progress on my weekends
My Monday nights and Wednesdays are both free
So I'm wondering what your doing
Wonder of you wanna go get lost with me
So take my hand
Baby I'll be your man
I'll be your Jim
If you'll be my Pam
And we can watch the stars in Ryan's office all night
Cuz I'm working late you see
A little distractions all I need
I want you to fall in love with me
I've been spending my life searching
Wasting time in places I don't wanna be
With Is A Real Boy playing through my speakers
Getting ready for work, but there's gotta be more for me

I guess it’ll never be okay
To have more answers then you
Well I have the facts, I’m voting no
On your conservative views
It’s not like I care for politics anyway
Why are you trying to persuade me anyway
(Hey wait a minute)
Do we gotta fight about this every time
(I’m wrong you’re right)
You should do some research on your hate crimes
(Hey wait a minute)
I’m not the brightest bulb but I’m not blind
(I’m wrong you’re right)
I just ain’t the god fearing kind
So let’s talk about you
And your new pickup truck
How the president sucks
Dude I couldn’t give a fuck
If your exhaust farted rainbows
Or killed the ozone layer
You’d still be a dick
And tell me my pants couldn’t be "gayer"
Let’s just agree to disagree
And stop friend requesting me

Autumnal

It’s seems I’m dying with the trees
October will bring different leaves
And their coloration will be astounding
And throughout this winter cold
I will cast a better mold
So I can fill it with our hopes
Oh the web we weave
When we are trying to perceive
Why we endure this course of action
Oh the web we weave
When we practice to achieve
A new found state of satisfaction
I will try my very best
To build you a worthy nest
With whatever I can gather
And I swear that I alone
Will construct our new found home
And talk of our past will only bring us laughter
It’s seems I’m sitting on the breeze
I’ve never felt this calm, this ease
For once I know which way I’m heading
When leaves fall of the trees
So must I be free
To guide this love, this family
Oh the web we weave
When we are trying to perceive
Why we endure this course of action
Oh the web we weave
When we practice to achieve
A new found state of satisfaction

Let’s pack up our shit and head out the door
Find out what this body's really made for
Cuz there’s no way you wanna be in Massachusetts
For your entire life
I wanna see some mountains, the clearest blue oceans
Get as close as I can to a perpetual motion
Cuz there’s no way I’m gonna sit on my fat ass
For the rest of my time
It all seems so unreal
So beautiful
Someone like me can barely believe
Those white mountains, that clear blue water
a boat, a plane, I’ll keep going farther
I wanna see, I gotta believe
I swear I’ll get my shit together
Maybe this guitar is gonna get me there
These bar chords bring a sigh of relief
I wanna play in Bristol on fucking a boat
I wanna jam with some cool kids in Tokyo
So let’s hit the US next summer and start heading East
I just can’t live in Mill city for my whole life
I’m too fat, too lazy, too stupid, but next year we’ll see
I’m done preparing to try
Cuz there is thinking and there is doing
I’m 21 god damn years old
It’s time to put these ideas in motion, finally
I’m just so tired of being sad all the time
It’s time I get a fucking life

They say it's not what you know, it's who
So I guess I'll never get a job cuz all of my friends they need one too
And as I wake up at noon, although my was alarm set for 8
I can't help but think that tomorrow might not be that great
But I hide this pessimism with a most arrogant stride
I'll never be that guy whose feelings keep him tied
Down to a bed whose owner makes him sick
No, I'll always be this stubborn prick
Cuz I already know where I have set my eyes
And I caught your face
Your body’s lissome ways
Accepting my listless embrace
I'm so in awe
Of what your smile did to this room
You made my crap stained city feel like some bucolic place

Looking through my wallet and thinking about
How college just won't work out
Maybe Ill leave and find a real job
But come back some day
I've been thinking a lot about your plans
And how you said I wouldn't understand
I hope you find yourself a real man
But god, come back some day
Hey Matt Perez
Could you turn my vocals up
Cuz we're the only ones who ever listen
Hey Man
Do you think I'm wasting time
Cuz we're the only people who are gonna hear this
I swear I've been here before

Worry About It
02:15

It started in my dreams
you were an earthquake, a virus
screaming out to me
now it's something I can see
beautiful in color
impervious to me
how will I make it through
this hell that tries to keep me from you
how will I make it through
You're my unnecessary weight
You're love, you're all the things I hate
You're the final judgement, you're a whore
I'll never get enough of your more
oh how will I make it through?
How will I destroy all that I want?
I have no clue
but I'm sure I can work something out with you

I take a step outside
The screen door shuts
It’s still freezing
This new England weather is pissing me off
I head to my college
A community
To take a class at 7:30
That doesn’t mean shit to me
I may not be much for science
But my professor’s kinda hot
I guess that’ll be the highlight of my day
Now it’s time to clock in
Come on man you’re 2 whole minutes late
Hey man your attitude is getting old
every day it’s the same damn thing
And lately when I see my reflection
I’m like shit, is that me?
And I know it’s so cliché
But it’s time for me to change
What did we do with last year?
It seems like once you turn 18
Every day it’s the same damn thing
I let the years fly by like weeks
And I’ve done close to nothing
I want a car I want a house
I want a Japanese girlfriend
That listens to into it. Over it

Every day I feel their eyes are watching
How could someone like you be this insecure?
Between the tattoos and the new car
Do you even know who you really are?
Please tell me who you have to impress anymore?
Sorry I’m so quick to pass my judgment
I didn’t know the problem honesty could be
But when they lit their cigarettes, I just simply left the room
I’m not into smelling like smoke and that doesn’t seem rude to me
I have my fun without making a mess
But I ain’t saying that I’m smarter than you
I might grab a snack, you grab a 30 rack
And if it’s a holiday, you’ll grab two
Are you even having fun?
You’re gonna hurt someone
And I can only hope it’s you
Maybe my life’s all wrong
Maybe my life’s all wrong
Or maybe you’re jealous

So lay down, this is only gonna hurt if you let it
You’re gonna have to forget it
Maybe I should leave town, cuz I’m not the person I used to be
Not the person I used to be
And I’ve tried so hard
To push aside this need
But it’s all I see
When I close my eyes, my dear it’s harrowing
Such an unspeakable thing
A feeling only eclipsed by you
A battle meant for two
This is so unreal
We’re still not even half way there, my darling
It’s unsettling
Right now I’m nothing
