here we go
into this great beyond
here we go
my chains from here begone
and this is just the first of it
in a series to come
this is just the worst of it
this ends in the sun
here i am
waiting in my car
here i am
wondering where you are
and this is just my hopeful side
hoping you will show
this is just a part that's died
wondering where you go
here i am
i couldn't ask for a better situation
what with you not answering your phone or mail
makes me think that you don't wanna talk to me

say hello to the weekend
say goodbye to the scene
say hello to the weekend
i'll show you where you're sleeping
i saw you step into your car but i
didn't call your name
say hello to the weekend
say goodbye to the scene
songwriting can be dreary
but purples have their ways

if you find that you're living alone
look at me and find a new home
i can see its easy now
i can't wait to see you smile
i can see you're aging now
take a step in the watering lines
and one day you will find where it lies
i don't need your whispering
i can't hear you answering
stay with me you need a friend

Not Mine
03:06

why does it feel like everybody's watching me
waiting for me to explain why i am so insane
how can i be so upset when everything is right
thinking of what could of been will only make me cry
wishing you would stay with me but you're not mine
talk to me and hold my hand but i will let you down
walk around your neighborhood to see if you're around
how can i be so upset when everything i right
sing a song to stay alive but you're still on my mind
wishing you would stay with me but you're not mine
i just wanna be with you but i'm too blind

i never wanted to be
part of your animal tree
you walk alone on the street
until you fall to your knees
she would never agree
with all your animal needs
i never wanted to be
part of your animal tree
i never wanted to be
part of your animal tree
you sit alone with your back
against a wall made of leaves
if you could ever be free
would you be running with me
i never wanted to be
a part of anything
to be in love is true
i only want to talk to you
so tell me everything you know
and by the water we can go

Vapid

i hope you're happy
with the friend you've made
cause it never will ever matter
anyway
and i hope you're happy
with the time you waste
sleeping in your bed
and staying up late
it is all just empty anyway
it is all just empty anyway
i hope you're happy
standing in line
piss away your humanity
in due time
i hope you're happy
filling your cup
to the brim with beer
and nothing but
cause it's all just empty anyway
fucking vapid anyway

sometimes it feels
like we're falling out of love
like nothing's real
like there's no starlight above
above our heads
from which kissing lips part
and good things end
we fall apart
i said
i cannot be what you want me to be
everything dies eventually
"climb me like a tree" she said
i'm trying to love you
but i don't remember how
we were
and those three words we said too much
cause right now they are nothing but a crutch for us to lean on
just broken things
i cannot be what you want me to be
everything dies eventually

i tried most everything to make you one that i could blame
when i fall down to find my teeth lodged in the dirt and grime
but everything i try blows up in my face, hair on fire
like a bottle rocket aimed through my eyes, to the skies
and this
isn't the way i choose to be
if you asked me, i would rather
run to the place where i could hide my face and look away
from everything that matters like getting up and growing old
with something light inside like a bottle rocket growing bright
bursting out my head, chandelier on the ceiling going red
and this isn't the way i choose to be
if you ask me, i would pack my things and hop a train to philadelphia
