Let's go
A younger me just dead end kid
with his heart on his sleeve and temper in his chest
Sitting in my anxiety
I refuse to believe that I’m stuck in this mess
I remember being thirteen
Writing my first songs in front of a computer screen
My friends are throwing parties while I’m watching I love the 90s
(I never walked this path alone but I guess I’ll make it on my own)
It feels like 17 all over
melting through my fingers
Praying to a god I don’t believe in
But I’ll hold my head up high
Tory told me to stop wasting my time
Concerning myself with what others think of me
I told her I couldn't help it now
I always seem to over think these things
Now I’m learning to be cautious
While keeping myself grounded to reality
Trying not to get my hopes up
But I’m still having trouble falling asleep
It feels like 17 all over
Melting through my fingers
Praying to a god I don’t believe in
Taking every chance to break my bones
No sticks and stones
Your words will never hurt me
But I’ll hold my head up high
Hoping you could save my life

Lately I've been wasting my whole day
Watching Law and Order fuck you
I've been running low on things to say
And all I've got are questions about
Why you like to get fucked up and
Hand around in shitty dive bars
Talking to those kids who used to make
Fun of you for being different
Friends and family all feel distant
Better off just stay in bed all day
I'll be okay
Lately I've been wasting my whole day
Watching Law and Order fuck you
I've been running low on things to say
I'm past the point of ever learning
How to cope with my depression
Between working 40 hour week and sleeping my whole life away
Or staying in till 4 am
Wishing I could make some sense of anything other than my mistakes
I stay awake
Lately I've been wasting my whole day
Watching Law And Order, fuck you
I've been running low on things to say
But I'm not giving up that easy, now
I'll find my way
I'll make a change
To better days
I'll be okay

If You Really Knew Me

I wake up at 6am
Lay in bed till 8:45
See my reflection in the tv that's in front of me
I've spent weeks worth of days
Counting the hours till I get paid
I hate to admit that I'm afraid
You don't know me
Or how I respond in these kind of situations
What have I gotten myself into
Look how I've changed
Maybe it's for the better
That I don't see you every day
We've grown apart and that's okay
Just slow down
I can't understand
You're talking way too fucking fast
Where were you when I needed you the most
I've made some plans
Set some goals
But I'm too busy staring at my telephone
While my whole life passes me by
Well how have I been?
I'd say that's a loaded question
I'm still a mess of course I am
I can't help but feel this way

Content With You

I see you standing in the kitchen with your arms held open wide
Like it was the first time
So distracted by the sunlight in your eyes
Trying not to say my thoughts out loud
I fall apart,
I fall to pieces every time i see you move,
So content with you
I fall apart,
I fall to pieces every time I see you move
The price I pay for staying up so late are dreams about your face
Hiding in the background
Some times I think too much about how different things could be
And I hope that you’d be proud of me
I fall apart,
I fall to pieces every time I see you move,
So content with what I’ve made
I fall apart,
I fall to pieces every time I see you move,
And things will never be the same
Whenever I fall asleep
I’m taken back to the same old dream
Of how I did it all for you
And I’d do it all again
Same old story lets pretend
That everything turned out fine
So I’ll keep these thoughts of you
Remember all that we went through
Like it was the first time
I fall apart,
I fall to pieces every time I see you move,
So content with what I’ve made
I fall apart,
I fall to pieces every time I see you move,
And things will never be the same

This is the hardest part
Knowing where to start
In my living room
This will be over soon
We got into your car
And things went way too far
I hope you don't hate yourself
For playing out your part
The least I could do is help
Figure out where we parked the car
This wasn't what I meant
By a day well spent
We sit here patiently
Both wishing we could leave
You sip your coffee black
I have a panic attack
I hope you don't hate yourself
For playing out your part
The least I could do is help
Figure out where you parked the car
I lost my temper when
You lost your sense of self
I went home alone
Despite my mental health

You Asked Me Not To
03:18

I know it’s hard for you to see inside my head
I’m going over all the stupid shit I said
You told me not to worry I guess you were wrong
I couldn’t tell you this thats why I wrote this song
I know it wasn’t worth it
To think that I deserve it
I know you asked me not to
But I wrote this song about you
Difference in values should have been the first red flag
And being pushed around was always such a drag
I’m sorry that I couldn’t tell you how i felt
What’s wrong with me just wanting to express myself
I know it wasn’t worth it
To think that I deserve it
T
I know you asked me not to
But I wrote this song about you
And I hope you know you know I’m not I’m not trying to be rude
I just wanted you to know that I’m so better without you
I’m not usually the type to pretend that I am fine
So when you asked me to shut up I
guess its time for me to shine
I know it wasn’t worth it
To think that that I deserve it

Fell asleep on the ride home
I guess you could say we cut it pretty close
Bury myself in my headphones
Passing out to sticks and stones
I couldn't believe I saw you there
Running your fingers through his hair
You don't even like this fucking band
But you still got the tattoo on your hand
And I'll never go back to that place
No
That fucking bar sucks anyway
Barely remember those summer nights
With pbr at half price
We got into a big fight
Cause you were hanging on some other guy
Some memories are better kept
Left in the place where we first met
Only 40 miles left
And then I can sit and just forget

Joel's Song

We used to make up stories
In your backyard
Plastic weapons and a
Princess to save
Remember when I got lost
In the field behind your house
You were laughing your ass off
When you found me said that you had
Saved the day without me
Cause I got scared and ran around way
And I can remember
The smell the tall grass
And your voice
it is still clear
But the picture
is too out of focus
Cause my prescription wasn't filled
We used to talk about growing up and getting out
On the streets at 3am
Then I started smokin cigarettes
At the house off Battle Creek
Last time I saw you , you we're riding your bike
Outside my apartment
I couldn't believe it
You were only skin and bones
(Don't let me down)
I lie awake and think of this
(Don't break my heart)
Of how you lost your chance at life

I wish that I was brave enough for
Planning my escape
I lost my faith
I've began to get so critical
With every single line
It's my mistake
Press forward
Pretending
My feet are stuck on solid ground
I'll take my chances
Jumping to conclusions
(Where are my friends)
Way in outer space
(I need you now)
You're giving up on me
While you were questioning the little things
all the parts
Start falling into place
You went over it in your head
But you just didn't know
How to relate
With your
Surroundings
You were pushed over the edge
I'll take my chances
Jumping to conclusions
(Where are my friends)
Way in outer space
(I need you now)
You're giving up on me
(When the lights go out I’ll say)
I don't know what to say
(When the lights go out I’ll say)
Is this the end?
(Never have I been the type to say what I've
been thinking all along)
I don't know what to think of all of this.
(Just one more step out the door and you are gone just like you have done before)
I'll get it right this time I'll straighten up my life
(I've heard that line a thousand times
It's time to wash these hands of mine)
Just give me one more chance
I've had enough
