You've got your girlfriend
I've got mine.
She's got the shivers,
you've got a sweater.
The temptation to sing is strong
And all you ever sing are love songs
or
Ballads about the government
I slept in, I watched 5th element
You want it all but the precedent
is that you won't work for it
Enchanted lesions of lovers old and lovers new
piercing eyes up in arms at what I've done to you
Enchanted battle cries enchant anything
With those eyes
The pain and havoc stink
as only you could wreak
Ballads about the government
I slept in, I watched 5th element
You want it all but the precedent
is that you won't work for it
Never be the one whose spending all my time alone
Never leave my bedroom
Never talk to my friends anymore
Cause I don't need em
I won't be the one to talk to you anymore
Cause
I've got big plans
I've got big plans
dude, shove them up your ass!
OO0h

Halloween Horror Story

Tacky Tiled floors
In an upbeat styled groove cafe
Playing 80's synth hits
The ceilings cyan and the walls are brick
You're a Halloween Horror story
I can see the end before the 2nd act
A few jump scares and all that
Nasty gross out crap
But I can't look away from the screen now
The plot sucks but that's entertainment
I can't look away from the screen now
This plot sucks but that's entertainment today
Tacky Tiled floors
In an upbeat styled groove cafe
(today)
Playing 80's synth hits
The ceilings cyan and the walls are brick
(today)
And it's all forgetful
They're all forgetful
She's got a lot of money
She don't even notice that my makeup is running
My stomach hurts
but I force it in stitches
By my reckoning
I'm gonna burn the witches
By my reckoning
I'm gonna burn the witches
(I gotta get these ants out of my keyboard)
Tacky Tiled floors
In an upbeat styled groove cafe
Playing 80's synth hits
The ceilings cyan and the walls are brick
And it's all forgetful
They're all forgetful

I Never want to leave my Bed
I'll stay here until I am Dead
I Never want to leave my Bed
I'll stay
Until I'm Dead
Black out the windows
Turn out the lights
Under covers I am hidden from Sight
I Never want to leave my Bed
I'll stay here until I am Dead
I Never want to leave my Bed
I'll Stay
Until I'm DEAD
Black out the windows
Black out the lights
Under cover
I am hidden from Sight

You Don't know the World like I do
You Don't wanna know the world that I do
You Don't know the World like I do
You Don't wanna know the world that I do
Here we go again you wine without fail
It's the same thing Daily
The woe is me act has grown stale
See you looking pretty in your thrift store chair
tell me your life's shitty, yeah?
I clearly don't care
Wipe the tears away
Back to combing your hair
looking this cool takes time
It takes Care
You Don't know the World that I do
You Don't wanna know the world that I do
You Don't know the World that I do
You Don't wanna know the world that I do
You say you care about others
But we know that you don't
You just think about your image
So just sit there and float
No one gives a shit about your "aesthetic"
I could say that but I won't
I guess I'm equally pathetic
On the TV screen they tell me it's gonna be GREAT
As they raise their glasses to celebrate
Promised it'd be better after they win
But I won't trust a guy with Orange skin
You Don't know the World that I do
You Don't wanna know the world that I do
You Don't know the World that I do
You Don't wanna know the world that I do
It's cool to be cool
Yeah, It's okay to try but at the end of the day,
you're living a lie
I guess I'd rather be remembered for something I said
Not some picture I posted bout some shit about Zen
Maybe it's you
Maybe it's me
scrutinizing everything you say like I'm some fucking freak
How's that Fair?
It's not!
You Don't know the World that I do
You Don't wanna know the world that I do
You Don't know the World that I do
You Don't wanna know the world that I do
atop my soapbox the crowed's getting thinner
The secrets out now it's me whose the shitter
THanks for listening gang to this crazy mans call
I need your attention to live
In this world that's so small
In this world that's so small
In this world that's so small
We don't know the world that you do
We don't wanna know the world that you do
We don't know the world that you do
We don't wanna know the world that you do

Drinking poison and driving without sleep
Because I can and I wanna make it
In an old abandon station as far as I can tell
There's a whole lotta lifeless people
And we all go through this fairy tale
Where life flies high and never fails
We all go to this fairy tale
We all Fancy ourselves
As characters in a cinematic romantic
Disenchanted fictional story tale
it's where you go to meet girls
It's where you go to reinvent yourself in strangers eyes
Reinvent yourself in strangers eyes
And we all go Through this fairy Tale
Where Life flies high and never fails
We all go to this Fairy tale
Drinking poison and driving without sleep
cause I can and I wanna make it
You could put the phone down
I could put my phone down
YOU COULD PUT THE PHONE DOWN
I COULD PUT MY PHONE DOWN
I'll go to this fairy tale
I'll go to this
I'll go to this
we all go to this fairy tale
where life flies high and never fails
we all go to this fairy tale

I'm sad
She said, "I'm sad too,
I wanna spend a little more time with you"
We don't argue and
we don't complain
Happy New Year
Sure, I'll have your champagne
In vain I swear I love you
But I don't think that I'm in love with you
I wish I could pay more attention to you
I've just got more important things to do
I think you're special and I know that it's hard
The stress of living is really tearing this apart
Sometimes it's work,
Sometimes I wanna die,
You should go be special with some other guy.
"I'm sad" she said
Guess that's the end of that.

I'm Talking on the phone across from the
Security desk in this cold lobby, ya see
In this lone lobby with me
The man stands behind a barricade which he winces while I walk past
It's okay
it's okay
I get upset
I go to bed
I think of things
I haven't said
I think of things I wanna do
I think of my time I never earned
it's okay
The place, had a hexagonal tiled floor
the kind ya see in a bathroom of a rest stop floor off
the 90 EAST
exit 24
I get upset
I go to bed
I think of things
I haven't said
I think of things I wanna do
I think of my time I never earned
I fear I'm wasting a special gift to front a band that will never start
oooooooooooooooo
oooooooooooooooo
I'd rather stand outside and chain smoke
Cigarettes just so I don't have to be at this party alone
Party alone
Party alone
Party alone
This is a party of one
Party alone
Party alone
This is a party of one

A cute song plays in a coffee shop
There's some boys outside being shot by cops
It's a hurricane of internal affairs
The girl who beats her wife lives right downstairs
and I'm feeling over emotional today
yeah, I'm feeling over emotional today.
"Hi"
"Hello, sir your order please?
Care to donate to some kids in need"
"I'd love to man, but can't you read?
The sign outside says a mouth to feed"
and I'm feeling over emotional today.
Yeah, I'm feeling over emotional today.
and I just want to help
and I just want to help
A cute song plays in a coffee shop
There's a body on the blacktop
Is he dead or is she alive?
The TV screens will make that shit archived
and I'm feeling over emotional today
Yeah, I'm feeling over emotional today
And I just wanna help
And I just wanna help
And I

It's getting old it's getting sad,
this unapologetic dream I have.
Why'd you have to be so
existential all the time?
For the time being enjoy the sunshine.
Enjoy the sunshine.
It's the burn you know whats real!
It's the burn you know how to feel!
Take a breathe of fresh air,
put on your favorite fabulous denim wear and watch.
Watch the sun explode.
David Byrne he had it right
"Say something once, why say it again"
Should I say it again?
no no no no no no
it's the burn you know whats real
it's the Burn you know how to feel
It's the burn you know whats real!
It's the burn you know how to feel!
Cali called me casually she had something to say,
Started with a sorry baby but hey,
Hey Matt
Will we really talk nevermore?
I found your picture on my floor.
You found my picture in your phone.
Will we really talk nevermore?
I found your picture on my floor.
You found my picture in your phone.
If you had the time it'd be nice to hear from you
or see you too
but I don't want to
I DON'T WANT TO!
It's the burn you know whats real!
It's the burn you know how to feel!
It's the burn you know whats real!
It's the burn you know how to feel!

I remember sitting out on the beach
Wondering what the hell we'd do next week
I remember stopping trains in your name
Hopping hotels and shit
Depressing summer heat waves at me goodbye
goodbye
She was scrapping weed crumbs off tobacco pieces
as she pieces out as she pieces out of here
And I thought you would have had it figured out
When you wind up in the hospital
Why won't you figure out
Repeat it if he's in the same state as you
Come on, Please Please Leave
I wake up my back hurts and I'm back
to the place where I've always been
Just a sucker with a notebook in a corner at some party
I'm not that drunk I'm on the roof okay now I'm leaving
Just a sucker with a notebook in a corner at some party
I'm not that drunk I'm on the roof okay now I'm leaving
Just a sucker with a notebook in a corner at some party
I'm not that drunk I'm on the roof okay now I'm leaving
I'm Just a sucker with a notebook in a corner at some party
I'm not that drunk I'm on the roof okay now I'm leaving
I'm just a stoner at a party in your bathtub
I'm not that drunk I'm on the roof
okay now I'm okay now
now I'm leaving
ooooh
