Will you quiet down to the boaters of this town I'm festured up at the way they Parade around I hold this grudge when they've done Nothing to me And honestly I'd like to join your club Cause you'll never feel Empty Ever again Will you please move to the cyclists of this town Clogging the mid-lane are all these Hand signal clowns I hold this grudge when they've done Nothing to me And honestly I'd like to join your club Cause you'll never feel Empty Ever again Ills not articulate Are they not granular Another day off the calendar Ills not articulate Are they not granular Call it Another trip as a passenger Ills not articulate Are they not granular Fuck it, fuck you, and fuck me I'm out of here Ills not articulate Are they not granular No please Come on and help me out here I don't know why I hate you Proud people of the pines I'm bearing blame while dodging eyes I see sunshine and expect for it to rain So tell me why I'm so unsatisfied I hold this grudge when they've done, Nothing to me And honestly I'd like to join your club Cause you'll never feel Empty Ever again Ever again

Nothing Ever Happens 02:08

I woke up Feet falling off the couch Had to laugh At the basement scene Is that a plane No its pounding in my head Do you feel different No I'm just about the same Nothing ever happens With the help of friends Nothing ever happens Have you caught the bends Nothing ever happens Oh have no fear Cause nothing ever happens down here Cause nothing ever happens down here I woke up No illegal smile A spinning head man Just from your scent Was that butterflies Felt more like upchuck That's not right I'm still in my youth Nothing ever happens With the help of friends Nothing ever happens Have you caught the bends Nothing ever happens Oh have no fear Cause nothing ever happens down here Cause nothing ever happens down here Everything is new But nothing has changed My self is still attached And I resent him for that Nothing ever happens With the help of friends Nothing ever happens Have you caught the bends Nothing ever happens Oh have no fear Cause nothing ever happens down here Cause nothing ever happens down here Cause nothing ever happens down here Cause nothing nothing nothing nothing nothing happens down here

End of the week End of the week End of the week Don't want to hear about anything I've come to hide inside a drink Not for me Not for me No its not for me It's the end of times Raptures come at last Hand me an axe I need to blow off steam Cause when I wake up And I throw them covers I know deep down Everything will go wrong But when I pull them back After a great big night It's a great big lie But the only thing That we've got right End of the week End of the week End of the week Just couldn't wait To get a drink The worlds fucked now I'm in sync Not for me Not for me No its not for me I'm headed east Out to the sea So I can swallow the whole thing Cause when I wake up And I throw them covers I know deep down Everything will go wrong But when I pull them back After a great big night It's a great big lie But the only thing That we've got right

New City 03:44
lyrics

Take a walk through the park The one closest to home Say hello To the first jogger That you come across Talk to him about music The replacements Or his favorite type of weather He says “No, I ain't buying, any of what your selling” Cause I'm bankrupt Bankrupt bankrupt In the city Not a penny to my name Market me all the same Cause I'm bankrupt Bankrupt bankrupt In the city Don't want to look like I'm alone I pretend to read my phone Oh yeah Take a seat in the front car Right on Across from an elderly lady She old Lean over And ask her out Will she come down to your party Drive up to the market On 8th street Put a price on your head And its low Then wait The hitman can't come cause he's home sick in bed Cause I'm bankrupt Bankrupt bankrupt In the city Not a penny to my name Market me all the same Cause I'm bankrupt Bankrupt bankrupt In the city Don't want to look like I'm alone I pretend to read my phone All right now Call up an old friend Michael Ask him how he's been Oh hello Chit chat Between the yelling of his two small children Then I hear a crash Says that he must go Adios And suddenly I've never felt Any more alone Cause I'm bankrupt Bankrupt bankrupt In the city Not a penny to my name Market me all the same Cause I'm bankrupt Bankrupt bankrupt In the city Don't want to look like I'm alone I pretend to read my phone Again and again

There he goes again Look he's always late Turning out the leftmost lane that's oddly marked straight He's headed to the top No, not really the top of anything That's just the location of some Empty parking spots Oh yeah Now he's playing cameo While killing time in the breakroom Trying to remember all of the snacks in order Stuck at d8 well Then what comes after Dare to be different reads the walls lined with plaster Ain't that just the way Oh yeah How many miles can you drive On the skeleton of a t rex How many circles can you run Before your feet get up and go We got a call And it starts promptly at three Like the work of a clock man We all turn to the hall Now I get that bit In the masque of the red death While we're counting down to meetings with perpetual ends Oh yeah Oh I'm smiling now and if I stop to think Stare out the window the whole world seems to shrink From up here all of the streets look just the same Except for one that's always under construction Spare tools left out in there forgotten functions How many miles can you drive On the skeleton of a t rex How many circles can you run Before your feet get up and go To the meeting room where I turn my attention With paint pulled from the uncanny valley collection Have I seen this before Maybe in a dream And just right then my boss starts to scream But its not words No its a rising a alarm Its 6:53 And I'm running late And I'm always running late And I'm running running out of time And I'm only running out of time How many miles can you drive On the skeleton of a t rex How many circles can you run Before your feet get up and go

Keeping Up 03:30
lyrics

Tell me everything that you know Where you live Where you like to go Are you still stuck in school Maybe you've married And have moved It's sort of weird to hear a starting gun Especially when You never knew You joined a race I saw your name on a blank page Next to a haiku you had left me It said Be well and to avoid meth Don't you worry I won't forget It's sort of weird to hear a starting gun Especially when You never knew You joined a race Sorry to respond so late Things are good and I've lost weight Maybe you wouldn't even recognize me Don't you worry I held on to your tape It's sort of weird to hear a starting gun Especially when You never knew You joined a race And for both our sakes I hope the finish line Will be there By the time we get there

Storm 02:54
lyrics

Staring at the ceiling again Lost count at 200 holes Calling out There's no sound Straining hard to turn the wrist Feeling nervous no catching breath Moonlight smothers The room in dread And when you shift foot to foot I wonder if you'll Always stay put I feel so strange Do I only slow you down Are snowflakes all supposed to look the same I feel so strange I think back to the overpass The first time I heard you laugh when We saw what Someone had painted Snap out into the muted gray Stare out to the burdened clouds Each one is Blasting to shreds Blankets all pulled over to your side and That's a sign must mean it's cold but I can't help Feeling warm Sharing a storm And when you shift foot to foot I wonder if you'll Always stay put I feel so strange Do I only slow you down Are snowflakes all supposed to look the same I feel so strange

Sarcastic Laugh 02:31

We don't need to check up I count each an every step Your presence is on my watch I'll make sure your eating right Don't feel uptight We're closer than ever How bout a new purchase You're only living better now It happens so fast My sarcastic laugh Trust me I understand Laugh at what you can't control Those phantom rumbles aren't there Speak clear into the microphone Smarter when connected Are you feeling detached Apathy to irony As nascency to selfish acts It happens so fast My sarcastic laugh Everything that happens And all that sits around me Something too far out Well it's the shock that's trendy Life outside the person Spirits on the tv Now I'm just in the way And that's how it must be It happens so fast Now you're just in the way that's how it must be My sarcastic laugh Now you’re just in the way that's how it must be Everything's a joke Now you’re just in the way that's how it must be When nothing is Now you're just in the way that's how it must be

For Me You're Everywhere 03:50
lyrics

Sing me a line From your favorite song Twist and turn But you're out of sight Here again I fear waking From this nightmare To your eyes in the dark Were you here Or were you there The answers yes For me you're’ everywhere Blinds say more Then I ever could Closed uptight For you or I locked inside Your shape Frozen in the folds Is that us Up there on the mantle Were you here Or were you there The answers yes For me you're’ everywhere The cold breeze finds its common ground Through open cracks Of opaque windows And looks sent out Are met with life For there you are Lying in the grass Were you here Or were you there The answers yes For me you're’ everywhere

Places to Go 05:15

Tall mountains You are wrong Who wants to live Where its always cold Its not about How you can learn to adjust You're much too close to heaven And I'd rather not Have to deal with that Big cities You are wrong I think you forgot To color in the lines Maybe I am allergic to horns You somehow make grids difficult And if I'm to tell the truth Well id rather not Have to deal with that Small towns Did I mention that you’re wrong What there is Is nothing to do One stop light is not enough Everyone there Knows too much And if I'm to tell the truth Well id rather not Have to deal with that All the places You are wrong All the places Well you don't match up I don't know where I'm supposed to be Now there's something caught in my teeth Flossed out lies It seems that the problems is me Well where are you supposed to be At least we have each other How could you want anymore I've been here too many times Way too many times before I am losing my reflection Whose that there in the mirror Doctor please help me out What’s inside of my shirt There's so many things to do And even more places to go It's catching up now Who are you to turn from How slow it all works The thoughts that you've learned Do I fear the flying Is it flying that fears me Please open that fountain I need just one sip I'm starved upon rooftops With each step I might slip Gimme your hands Gimme your hands Gimme your hands You're not alone today Not today or anyway Never and or anytime Give me your hands and we'll try

A Short Story With No Ending 03:39
lyrics
buy track
She asks me why This night last longer than any other And I tell her a lie She asks me why Sometimes I wake with a funny face and I tell her a lie A short story with no ending See I talk about Such boring silly things That only trick myself Like playing cards Being called toys Despite the places you find them in She asks me why This night lasts longer than any other And I tell her a lie She asks me why Sometimes I make that funny face and I want to make her laugh So I dance with my shadow To a short story with no ending What lies behind might be better Bu there's so many doors to open Crisis or drugs, drink, and social Either way What was isn't now A short story with your ending A short story with your ending
