it’s nice to meet you, that’s my name too
a face to remember to forget about soon
we could have been your favorite band
we could have been the black hole in your head
you’re all the same you know
but i’m here, i’m waiting, and i’m watching you
it’s nice to meet you, that’s my head too
we can’t let the monsters pick and choose
we could have been your favorite band
you could have been my reason to live again
but you’re all the same
i’m in your head

this is our sound

i’ve been spending my whole life waiting for you to call
i’ve never been that good but i’m ok
i’ve been spending my best nights screaming, hoping you’ll hear
i’ve never had the sound but i’m still down
i’ve been learning to crawl
taking fewer steps towards the bar
i know those simple ears are hard to please
i’ve been learning to count on nothing but counting me out
i’ll cut this nose to spite but what else is new, right?
i’ve been trying to slow down
breaking every rule that i’ve found
still trying to make a fool out of all of you
i’ve been wasting your time for yours
but now i feel like you’re wasting mine
i feel like I’m wasted

i’ve sold my old weight in smiles
sucked the road and crawled a thousand miles
now you’re here and i’ll watch it die
feed the earth
because i’m going to make you feel the way you made me feel
i tried to find myself but you looked away
i’ll never forgive you for what you’ve done
and don’t ask for me to stay because i don’t think i could
i want the time to crawl on you
like the time flew by for me
i’d pick a million roses to pick a million noses
and it’s a popular trend but i was never your friend

hello world, i’ve got a life
and i see what the pigs are selling
i try to live below
but above the shit whose scene i’m smelling still
you’ve got to make this war your own
like jesus said per ronnie, my love is ready to go
hello world, i’ve got a home
and i see what your money’s missing
i try to live with soul but not the soul they want existing here
you’ve got to make this war your own
like jesus said per ronnie, my love is ready to go
you hang around like i’m someone
but i’ve never found just who i am

you're a loser

you are my friend despite how hard it is to stomach her
i care about you all so much its fucked
i know i may seem intense but it’s just a front
you saw me through even though i’m easy to ignore
and i know i can be too much at times
but that’s just because i want inside your mind
they all say i’m sick but i can’t get enough
my friends all say i’m sick but I can’t get enough
you are my lungs even though you aren’t
give me your ears and i’m gone
some birds won’t sing for you and i

if you can hear me now
than i hope you’re feeling fine
you really helped push me to be myself
and i hope you enjoyed saturdays
for as long as tom and i
i think about it almost every weekend
i made a choice last year
to live straight from the heart, there’s no turning back
i’ve learned to love the life i live
you girls made the most of me
and i can’t thank you enough
i hope my sense of humor wasn’t too much
everybody knows it’s a lonely world for some
and i don’t care about anyone or anything
except the things and ones who care for me
it’s hard being alone
and it’s hard living through a phone
when time is the only road home
and you and i both want to know we’re ok

hi friend

you’re on my favorite list
it’s been too long, how’s things?
the kids are getting old, eh?
you are the reason I’m alive
please tell me alive
longtime good friend, no joke
we’ve spent years far from fear
and asking where will we be?
you are the song i try and sing
please tell me i can sing
and i thank you from the bottom of my heart
you know i can still smell the way your basement smells
and if you ever think of coming home
i’d love to quit the world and get old

we’re pushing the lie for tomorrow at best
and heaven’s a joke again
but i’m thinking we’re better this way
if they only knew, their heads would explode
and we’re the ones cleaning the floor
i’d rather be the one holding the door
it’s been nice to know you
we’re pushing the lie for tomorrow at best
and heaven’s what it’s always been
but i’m thinking we’re better this way
if they only knew, their heads would explode
and we’re the ones closing the store
i’d rather be the one smashing the door
it’s been nice to know you
since i don’t know when i’ve been trying to lose
it’s a game for the slow but now i’m slower than you
try and sell me a broken hand
try and make me a better man, daddy please
i gave you my heart and then you threw it away

i’ll be sleeping at your front door no matter where you’re from
living slower than secure but your house is not a home
it’s who’s better than me and who’s selling who
you’re better than me but i’m fucking you
you begged me for my eyes
and made this collect call for years
i’d trade you this skull for legs
so i could outrun my brain
i swear it’s every time i’m done, it’s every time i wake
it’s every time i think i’ve taken all there is to take
there’s got to be an out, i’ve got to find a friend
i’ve got to feed this cold world’s heart again

i lost my heart learning to read
and found some faith for reason i couldn’t see
you know i’m a mess, it’s entirely true
you know i’m a mess, but it’s the best i can do
i lost my voice learning to read
it’s a language of love
through hate you could never understand it all
you know i’m a mess, it’s entirely true
you know i’m a mess, but it’s the best i can do
i’m coming over cuz there’s nothing to do
i’ve been down before but i’d rather be there with you
let’s smoke our brains into a steady stew
of what should we do now?
