No one told me this shit is for real (They tried, they tried)
The effort must come from somewhere ( I can't find, I can't find)
My mind was pried open and my mouth shown shut
and my pride stuffed deep within my beer soaked gut
NO ONE TOLD ME THIS SHIT IS FOR REAL
Don't say it gets easier with time (Please don't lie, please don't lie)
Life is shirt so I can try one more time (I can try, I can try)
My mind was pried open and my mouth shown shut
and my pride stuffed deep within my beer soaked gut
NO ONE TOLD ME THIS SHIT IS FOR REAL

Booze
03:18
|
|

Let me sweat out the Boston booze before I say what I think
Every time I go back east that coast gets the best of me
I have no control, Can't think on my feet
But I'm proud to be a west coast freak.
The hungover long haired slob, the who I was while I was there
Well, he had to leave, got a job, and cut his hair
I spent my time selfishly
Now I'll face my penalty

Nervous
03:51
|
|

I wasn't built for conversation, I wasn't put here to talk
Wasted words come form your mouth, a pointless waste of breath
There's few words I haven't heard, words just make me nervous
I have tied my own tongue, to stop the pointless flow
Of words that are not helping me, aren't helping me at all
I'm still where I was, with no plans to go
Silence is golden, words just make me nervous
Silence is golden
Words just make me nervous
Words just make me nervous

Soft Californian
05:21

I'm a soft Californian with no shell
stab me in the back and I'll still wish you well
Sorry, I don't mean to dwell now
I've been up for way to long
and I'm sure I'm singing this wrong
just like all the rest
Tell me, how do you stay
open to constant change?
I'm frozen now
We just gotta get out of our heads
We just gotta get out
We just gotta get out of here
I'm a soft Californian with no shell
and I don't think I'm dealing with it well
Just repress and move on
I've been dragged through the dirt and grime
I can't wash it off there is no time
Just repress and move on

Can't
05:38
|
|
||
The worlds a scary place I guess I should stay inside
Im scared to show my face but Im not afraid to hide
No one knows what will happen so please don't say you do
I can't shake this feeling that it'll happen to you
I may hide it well but I'm always terrified
and if you asked me to my face I'm more then sure I lied
I'm older in age so these feelings I should mask
But sometimes I can't
The words a predator and we are all its pray
Anxiety comes with questions go unasked
I'm older in age so these feelings I should mask
But sometimes I can't
Sometimes I can't

Could Not

(For Grandma)
I didn't recognize your face as you laid there
It wasn't the face that raised me
It wasn't the face that took me home from school
I wish our goodbye wasn't over the phone
weeping in the middle of the grocery store
even though you told me no to cry,
then I saw you on the day you died
You couldn't talk, and you could hardly breath
but you said please don't leave here without me
'Take me home' is all that you could say
I'm sorry that I couldn't help you home that day
I wish I could've taken you home
I wish I could've taken you home
Like you asked
Like you demanded
But I couldn't
I wish I could've taken you home
I wish I could've taken you home
Like you asked
Like you demanded
But I couldn't

Thinking
04:47

|

Yes, yes it's true
I only slept for 2 hours
But I feel fine
better then I thought I would
I feel fine
it's just All of this thinking is making me tired
It's not my fault it's the way my brains wired
All of this thinking is making me tired
It's not my fault it's the way my brains wired
It's not my fault it's not my fault
(I have seen this all before)
All of this thinking is making me tired
It's not my fault it's the way my brains wired
All of this thinking is making me tired
It's not my fault it's the way my brains wired
I can't silence my mind
It's not my fault it's not my fault
All of this thinking is making me tired
It's not my fault it's the way my brains wired

Goodbye
02:52
|
|

Nothing sounds worse then the words Goodbye
I've said it so many times, my mouth cracks dry
My throats cramped from saying
Goodbye
The sound squeaks out as I look away
Next time those words I refuse to say
I'm done saying
Goodbye
They say that I'll never see you again
I can taste the words as the rip into the air
Disgust rolls in and resentments there
I just hope I see you again
and that this isn't
Goodbye
They say that I'll never see you again
