Thin Blood

Bitter friends, better enemies
And all the fights that we had in between
Collaterally speaking
The odds aren't looking good
For you at all
Best of friends
But we're still enemies
I fight you but you fight for me
Collaterally speaking
The odds aren't looking good
For you at all
Well my friends
We're alcoholics now
It's like they found a way to find a out
'Cause we got thin blood
Pour up a shot
Let's rally it's the weekend
Did you think I had a better plan
We told secrets that we swore we'd never tell
And you didn't listen as you sat there and stared at your phone
I know I'm just wishing and I have too high of hopes
But I swear I'll never tell you anything when we are alone.

Do you remember we first met in May
It was cold outside and it smelled like rain
I picked you up, we headed back to my place
Little did I know for some years you'd stay
It wasn't long till we were more than friends
From afternoon walks through the places we lived
And when you got tired I could pick you up
You always reminded me we all get stuck
So I stuck by your side and time moved so fast
I never did realize this just couldn't last
And I still recall the way your skin felt
A constant reminder we all need help
And I know that we'll fuss and we'll fight
But life is too short so the time's never right
And I know you'll never know how I felt
It's a constant reminder we all need some help
And I know that we'll fuss and we'll fight
But life is too short so the time's never right
And I know you'll never know how I felt
It's a constant reminder we all need help.

Mothers

My mother told me she was proud of me
I always listened to every word she said
Now I know what disappointment I can be
But I never questioned any of it
My mother told me that I would go far
But I'm still standing in the place I started
She always gave me all her best advice
But I never listened or asked her twice
And all those bumps and bruises earned over the years
All those tissues you used to wipe away the tears
And I know I'm not the perfect kid
We've had our differences
You know I miss you when you're gone
And all those bumps and bruises earned over the years
All those tissues you used to wipe away the tears
And I know I not the perfect kid
We've had our differences
You know I miss you when you're gone
You know I miss you when you're gone
You know I miss you when you're gone
You know I miss you when you're gone
You know I miss you when you're gone.

Happy To Be Here

Making out in the hotel lobby
Almost fell from the balcony
Used a mailbox as a weapon
Silly girls down on their knees
Gettin' stoned in your brother's apartment
Making fun of the police
Mother said I should probably stop it
Guess I'll grow up eventually but
Oh how I know this isn't highschool
I'm feeling younger everyday
I don't feel the same as did
When vodka was the only way
I guess I should say I'm sorry
I'm twenty-three this year
Let's make one thing clear
I'm happy to be here
Thank Doug I'm finally done with highschool
I'm getting older everyday
I don't feel the same, I've gained some weight
But I take my whiskey straight
I finally said I'm sorry
If you're seventeen don't fear
That you'll never make it away from this because
I'm happy to be here.

Fact Or Fiction

You're holding onto this feeling, you never let go
On false premises you based all that you know
No second chance for the truth, you've got it all figured out
Call me insane but you don't know what you're talking about
I've heard it all before, like a bad fairytale
Crossing the facts with fiction you'll never know what's real
So pick a place and time, we said we'd figure this out
Just keep your story straight so I know what you're talking about
You piece together the story, try to figure out how
This all took place and how the final events went down
You said it's all a blur, your memory is blacked out
Why did this happen to me, can someone please tell me now
We're out of sympathy for you, there's no reason or doubt
Your whole perspective was skewed, do you see clearly now
You always miss the point, when will you figure it out
Wasting our time away, we'll are you happy now?

Things About Us

I need a social situation
To take me out of my head
I am drowning and reluctant
To say I see any light at the end
Waste me away
I'm just a pawn in your stupid chess game
We're all the same
And I just don't see it going any other way
A dead end job
And I'm standing on the sidewalk
Counting the seconds to the minutes that im losing
Suffering in silence
At at the sound of the last call
And it's two in the morning
Wasted away
Yeah we're all the same
We're all the same
Chase me away
And I'll be moving on to better things
Wasted away
Yeah we're all the same
We're all the same
Chase me away
And I'll be moving on to better things than this
I love to gloat (I love to gloat)
I love getting stoned (I love getting stoned)
And in spite of what I've seen
I've never once had hope
I wouldn't change (I wouldn't change)
I'd play make believe (I'd play make believe)
I faked it till I made it
And acting so obscene, I'm not sorry
That I'm no good.
Wasted away
Yeah we're all the same
We're all the same
Chase me away
And ill be moving on to better things
Wasted away
Yeah we're all the same
We're all the same
Chase me away
And I'll be moving on to better things than this.
