Bloody hands and dirty secrets All the ones that you’ve been keeping A lie you’ve told for so long That I’ve started to believe it But I gotta know (Somethings gotta give) What’s going on? (What’s happening?) What’s the breaking point or the purpose Cause I don’t think your bullshit’s worth it Fell asleep on the sofa counting ceiling tiles Barely rolling over just to get up for awhile And so I want you to know… It’s all your fault (It’s all your fault) That we were fucked up for so long It’s all your fault (it’s all your fault) And I guess this is just so long So long Yea I probably could’ve done things different Yea I probably should’ve stopped to listen Or maybe just got sober and put you first But I didn’t And done dirt don’t change (What’s done is done) Guess I gotta start acting my own age And come to terms with all the mistakes that I’ve made Fell asleep in the basement counting carpet stains Barely rolling over just to whisper your name And so I want you to know… It’s all my fault (It’s all my fault) That we were fucked up for so long It’s all my fault (It’s all my fault) So I guess this is just so long So long Breath into me, I’m not breathing Please catch me if I fall Wake me up I keep sleeping And I’m wasting away, and I’m wasting away Breath into me, I’m not breathing Please catch me if I fall And wake me up I keep sleeping And it’s all my fault, it’s all my fault My fault

Could I catch a fucking break for a change Cause the way that shits been going I don’t think that I’ll last another day So I’ll complain about everything, about everything And I think that I failed to mention That the path to my grave’s been paved with bad intentions And don’t think that I failed to listen To all of the good advice you were giving To me like I should; fuck off, get lost Kick rocks, eat shit, drop dead, oh yea and burn in hell I see the worst in me Is bringing out the worst in you as well But we’re all fighting for our lives And waging wars against ourselves Finding ways to go along and cope With the shitty cards we’re dealt But I’ll scream at the top of my lungs And let every syllable roll off my tongue Because the fact of the matter is that I hate your guts And for all that I care you can go and die young Or get fucked And I meant every word that I said And I hope that you just drop dead And I’m waiting, but I won’t hold my breath But I had to get it off of my chest And despite how I feel, you were probably just doing your best
3.
There’s enough of this nothing for everyone There’s a little bit of something for somebody Other than me, it seems I’m missing out on everything And then I’m falling back into dangerous habits And I’m sick of the bullshit, I think that I’ve had it Cause I don’t really want to be like you but I guess that it’s all that I got GO! And last I heard, the newness had worn off And all your best friends were no longer best friends at all And all along they were singing, waiting, praying for you to fall And now that your friends and all your family aren’t around Now that your stay and your welcome has run out Where will you go, what will you do with yourself now With a bottle and a bullet on your bedside table, just drink it down Cause I don’t really want to be myself but I guess that it’s all that I got No I don’t really want to be myself but I guess that it’s all that I got GO!

Oh you’ve been holding your breath in And I’ve been counting the seconds between them I can see through your contact lenses That you ain’t even here But you got nothing better to do with your… Time in this city and I’m almost over it I’ll be alright by tomorrow at least that’s What I’m hoping and I’ll hope for the best We’re trying harder than fuck to try and get out of this Of this I ain’t been sleeping much lately I’ve been up for what seems like days on end It’s starting to drive me crazy But I can hear you moaning, breathing, singing, screaming At the tope of your lungs… “Goddamn it to this city” out of our bedroom window And yea I know it’s bringing us down Fucking pretend if you want, but don’t call it home Lets be real with ourselves, this place is Hell Down along with it We’re going down along with it I can’t stay in this place but… I can’t get away from this place I can’t stay in this place but… I can’t get away from this place
(I won’t stay here, you won’t leave here) (So fuck it, lets roll the dice or I might pack my bags tonight)
5.
I’m sorry if I haven’t called or kept in touch in what seems like forever But you can blame it on the inconsistencies and faulty patterns in my behavior Fuck it, or whatever they’ll say as they lay you in your grave But I swear to god that I’ll watch him hang (I will see to it) And watch the poison flush his veins (I will see you again) Cause you said that you’d take him in and heal his head and make him better And you thought that he’d be better by now but he’s barely holding it together Just waiting to come untethered and take the life that gave him life and made him matter… In the first place This is the worst case The news I heard today I wish that I could have saved you Just like you saved me Back when things were still okay And that I could’ve told you How much you mattered Before he took it all away I’m a take it in my hands If they don’t To fix this situation Buddy… Oh you should have stayed in California Cause you don’t know what you got coming now And there ain’t gonna be no warnings Cause when I find you, I’ll make sure to leave you… Lifeless in some cardboard (An eye for an eye) Lying in the garden (A life for a life) Lifeless in some cardboard (An eye for an eye) Lying in the garden (A life for a life) I hope that you didn’t feel anything at all And I hope that you find out your way where you go I wish you would have stayed in California

I feel it coming to an end And I don’t think the ones you love are gonna make it When the world finally gives in Beneath the cities where we live and fucking takes it all And swallows it up Leaves you alone with that hole in your heart and in your guts, well I hope it was worth the wait I hope it wipes that stupid smile off your face Your face Cause you live and you learn You crash and you’ll burn, and at the end we’ll just laugh it all off Fuck what you heard Earliest bird always bites the bullet, it dies all alone Alone, Alone! Was it ever really enough for you to stay silent? Was it ever really enough for you to be happy here? Was it ever really enough for you to stay silent? Was it ever really enough for you to be happy here? Cause I feel it coming to an end and I don’t think that we’ll make it When the world finally gives in beneath the cities where we live I feel it coming to an end and I don’t think that we’ll make it When the world finally gives in beneath the cities that we’ve built And all along you all were just waiting And all along you all were impatient
7.
You’re at the bottom now and no one’s there to lend a hand Because they’ve all found out, that you’ve been lying right through your teeth And it’s always raining in Suffolk skies, so get ready for the weather In a few more years, I hope that you’ll be doing better But I know that you won’t Another bottle, it bites the dust and Another close friend loses trust in You completely, it’s almost as easy as Chewing razors to talk to you lately But I know that it’s almost the weekend again And you’ll be at it, rolling full steam ahead For all the wreckage I know that you’ll leave in your wake For every smile that I know that you’ll fake Don’t fuck around, don’t say you planned it this way The truth is much brighter on cloudier days like these Like these Like these Like these Now the walk home is longer than you were hoping And you’re soaking wet and cold and oh so fucking broken Like every bottle you sent down that river floating When 40 ounces wasn’t enough to fill you up And one of these days, it’s all gonna catch up to you One of these days, we’ll watch it all catch up to you One of these days, it’s all gonna catch up to you And one of these days, we’ll watch it all catch up to you

Drive Home 03:10
Here we are again, kick in the door We’re screaming out loud and I know that you wanted it And by now you’re probably aware That you’ve been kicking and praying, screaming up to nothing And I don’t want to be the one who Breaks all the bad news to you I know that it’s my role So here we are and here we go again And you said that you wanted it but I don’t think you did What’s the worst that could happen when it’s as bad as it could get? When every love song that I write turns out like this With me trying to find a way to forgive or to forget or to move on And I know that things have been better And I hope they’ll get back that way real soon I’m losing my mind, sitting here trying to make something work for you Tell me if you want out and I’ll be all open ears But for now I’m sleeping on the floor again Underneath the hum of an old rotten ceiling fan And you said that you wanted it but I don’t think you did What’s the worst that could happen when it’s as bad as it could get? When every love song that I write turns out like this With me trying to find a way to forgive or to forget or to move on On the drive home, we’ll scream and shout On the drive home, we’ll call it quits On the drive home, we’ll work it out Just like we always do but then On the drive home we fell apart On the drive home we called it quits On the drive home you sat in silence Waiting for this drive to end
9.
I know you said that you’d be something when you grew up but You’re not going anywhere, and not doing anything And you don’t seem to give a fuck And you’re not growing up, you’re not talking to anyone We’re all just trying to help But you’re probably pacing around in your basement Fucked up and talking to yourself And you’re eating hamburger helper off the floor again And listening to the same old records we bought way back when Back when we were younger and things were different But they’re not that way no more at all, so grow up and get old with us… And I know what you’re thinking Time keeps on changing, pacing, moving by too quick And as hard as you try, you just can’t keep up with it Cause you’re hanging around that stupid crowd That brings you down and keeps you right where you are And you’re on the ground, cause you’ve fallen down You’re screaming someone help me now because I’ve got to get out Of the house that I grew up in I’m acting dumb and doing nothing Getting stoned, talking to no one And I’ll never go back, to living like that In the house that I was raised in I’ll Spend my days down in the basement Blacking out from being wasted And I’ll never go back, to living like that At all Oh my goddamn, I’ve got to do something different Oh my goddamn, cause I know you won’t wait forever
10.
I’ve been trying to cope with the fact that I won’t Amount to anything, I won’t become anything And no amount of hope is worth a dollar to the broke So if you give a shit then why won’t you give up anything? And my life’s a joke to some folks who don’t like Anything about me and it’s easy to see; That I’ve been doing it all wrong for so long that you’ll be Happy when I’m gone, oh you’ll be happy when I’m gone Away… And I’ve been writing some tunes to try to cure my winter blues But every single song that I write’s about you So I ain’t got no better, no I’m still wearing sweaters Round’ the house this time of year because I hate this fucking weather And no matter where you are or how nice it might be I still wish the worst on you and I hope that you’re freezing To the bone and you’re sleeping all alone On a bed made for two, like a coffin just for you On your own… So if you want to play the victim Then I don’t mind being the killer Cause you held me down almost forever And you treat me just like mid December And you take all of me away You fucking take all of me away I swear you take all of me away You know you take all of me away And you take all of me away
