These Hospital Halls
02:34
|
|||
I wake up every morning
And I just wish I was somebody else
And I toss and turn as my home town burns
Agoraphobia starts setting in
And I can’t see shit in the mirror
Guess I shouldn’t have sewn shut my eyes
Holding on for the moment to come
When I open my eyes
Pull this knife out my spine
As I dance down these hospital halls
I broke my back on the speed that I lack
And I feel like I’m losing control
And I’m so scared that I’ll end up alone
In an unmarked grave far from home
And I can’t feel my legs any longer
Guess I shouldn’t have jumped from the third floor
But here I am
Holding on for the moment to come
When I open my eyes
Pull this knife out my spine
As I dance down these hospital halls

Suicide City
03:35
|

I press these pages to my chest
And I hope it amounts to something
Without you, I couldn’t stand myself
I just couldn’t go on living
I need your voice to tell me
That I’m gonna be just fine
As I’m latching on to a distant scream
From 1999
(And she said) ”I don’t wanna listen
I don’t wanna hear it
I don’t wanna know”
And it’s taken me until just now
To realize she should go
I’ve had enough
This is who I am
And I mean it just because
I don’t wanna stay in Suicide City
I don’t wanna live on Murder Street
And I don’t wanna give up, it’s too easy
And I don’t care if I’m all wrong
I was born and raised out of loud love
And it’s all I’ve ever wanted
A scream, a picture of a ghost
Inside a house that’s far too haunted
Torn between the beautiful
And the freaks of New York City
Heading down where palm trees grow
With a head full of graffiti
(And they said) I don’t wanna listen
I don’t wanna hear it
I don’t wanna know
And it’s taken me until just now
To realize that they don’t know
That I’ve had enough
This is who I am and I mean it just because
I don’t wanna stay in Suicide City
I don’t wanna live on Murder Street
And I don’t wanna give up, it’s too easy
And I don’t care if I’m all wrong

The Best I Never Had
02:05
|
|||
I’d do anything for you
And you’ve got nothing for me
I guess what I expected was a little sympathy
But I’m not that surprised, I really must admit
I get a little anxious
I get so fucking anxious
If you just give me one more try
I’ll make you want me this time
You’re out of sight and I’m out of my mind
I thought this time it would be different
But it’s all just the same
A slow walk in the park and then a gunshot in the rain
Just one kiss good bye, then I promise I’ll leave
I’m just a bit dramatic
I’ll run straight into traffic
Baby ain’t it obvious
I want you so bad
Light brown hair and blue, blue eyes
You were the best I never had
And when the night comes
I dream of how I hold you in my arms
And when the daylight comes, I curse myself
For all the far too late night bars I’ll see you from

Dead At 21
02:44
|
|||
So here we are again now
Bored and apathetic
Raise a glass to failure
Suicide is now expected
I am a freak of nature, dressed as a lazy cynic
Born into mass confusion, void of all motivation
Fear is my conviction
Nine to five constriction
Kissing the mouth of a gun
I’m not the only one
I don’t know who I am
I don’t care where I’ve been
All I know is I’m here and I don’t need you
I’m the prodigal son, dead at 21
Dumbfounded, alone
And I don’t need you
There is no breaking even
I’ll never get to heaven
I don’t respect or care about any kind of fucking discretion
If you want my head, just take it
You name the vow, I’ll break it
When all the problems are solved
We’ll all be long gone

Blacked Out
02:53
|

I’ve been wanting something, I’m reinventing glory days
A destructive habit comforting me
We ain’t stopping until I fall face first into the sky
I’ve come to terms with how I’ll never be alright
I’m dancing right down the line between heaven and hell
The ambulance outside my door is not ringing any bells
The wrong record on the turntable
Last night across the floor
’Cause I only fuck up when I’m bored
Waking up to the same old thing again
Fall asleep when the room starts spinning
Down the bottle all the way, I’ll be your friend
We’re going ’til the walls are closing in
It’s a disappearing act
I’m the saddest fucking clown around
Here we go again
Blacked out

I Hate Everything
01:29
|
|||
I don’t like politicians
And I hate social media
I don’t read the papers
I’m an egocentric social deviant
I don’t like television
Fuck all the radio stations
I’m the gun to the head of all the phony celebrations
I locked the door, I’m staying in
I guess I just hate everything
Just nuke it all ’cause I don’t care
I’m not losing myself out there, I swear
I hate environmentalists
And I hate the fucking nationalists
I don’t eat fast food
And I refuse to take my fucking medicine
Fuck governments and anarchists
I just can’t take no more of this
The only thing I love is hating everything and getting pissed
I locked the door, I’m staying in
I guess I just hate everything
Just nuke it all ’cause I don’t care
I’m not losing myself out there, I swear
Fuck you all ’cause I don’t care

Gasoline

On my mind
There’s nothing really on my mind
A broken record spinning all the time
There’s nothing really on my mind
Bite your tongue
Until the blood is filling up your lungs
Because it really doesn’t matter what you have to say
So save your breath and baby, bite your tongue
’Cause we’re all going to hell
So pretty please, don’t waste your time
Desperate and belated wishes for a better life
All the time
Gasoline and kerosene
I’m setting this whole town on fire
Life repeats like movie scenes
I’m gonna set myself on fire
Radio, I feel the static from the radio
I think I need a fucking overdose
Don’t make me listen to the radio
’Cause we’re all going to hell
So pretty please, don’t waste your time
Desperate and belated wishes for a better life
All the time

I Need A Doctor
03:04
|

So let it out while you want it
I’ve gotta say what I need to say
I think I want a short breather
I think I need a new place to stay
I tried falling in love, but it wasn’t that great
And now I’m all alone again
I don’t think I need these eyes anymore
’Cause I just don’t see an end
Am I falling apart
Or was I broken from the start?
I don’t need your loving, but I think I need a doctor
I need the wrong prescription for the right kind of problem
I wasn’t ready to be born, can I please be undone again?
Pretty please nurse, is the doctor ready yet?
Now she’s dancing on the table
Like an ulcer in my heart
I’ve bled for twenty years straight
I feel dead, but life goes on
And now everybody’s leaving
They packed their cars and now they’re gone
I wish I could
But I’m chained to the porch of the house where I grew up
Am I falling apart
Or was I broken from the start?

Rooftops
02:40
|

A punch in the face and a trick question
That’s all I really need for the panic to set in
It gets pretty dark from time to time
How many more days ’til I feel a bit alive?
I followed the cracks in the concrete floor
But then I painted myself into a corner again
I always lose my sleep from never staying up late
But now I’m jumping over rooftops
And I don’t feel like coming down tonight
No, up here I’ll be alright
Oh sweet angel, I’m a mess today
Tell me what I want to hear, make the monsters go away
I’ve got my head in the sand as I’m dancing on my grave
Oh anxiety my darling, I am but a humble slave
Your lips are moving, I feel your breath
But I don’t hear a sound, the static’s screaming so loud
But I’ll deal with it later, I’m a little busy tonight
Just don’t look down right now

She whispered softly
I felt her breath on my face
She said: ”I’ll keep you as tight as loose change in my back pocket”
I felt so right, I didn’t need no injection
I sent a signal flying low and high across the nation
Cut the cord, I’m leaving
And then I got the call
My baby girl was leaving
She took my money and she burned the house with me left in it
It seems like I’m stuck here
I’ve got so many questions
I turn to the bottle and I hope next time I learn my lesson
Cut the cord, I’m leaving
Cut the cord, I’m leaving you now
And they said:
”Just wait, life'll get you dead”
But I won’t give in to pressure, won’t admit that I’m scared
I’m just a hired gun without somebody to shoot
Yeah, I’m locked and loaded
Give ’em all the boot

A shotgun blast from the bast
Barbed wire around my heart
As the radio burns, I’m still waiting for my life to start
And when she goes away
An atom bomb on holiday
A gun shot in an alleyway
A crackling wire inside my brain
There she goes
All the streetlights fade when she glows like a black light
And my heart explodes
With the sweet words that she never said
Where are you, Felicia?
I can’t let you go
This nuclear winter’s so cold
And I will wait here forever
Or until the stars fall down
She finally moved to the city, like she told me when we were younger
Now it won’t be long ’til the highway turns us into strangers
I wish I told you then, just how much I needed it
Just a little kid scared half to death
I guess some things just never change
Here she comes
She’s a discotheque on the run
Like a heart attack just for fun
And she takes me oh, so far away
The neon in her heart is pumping to my brain
And I’ll make the same mistakes
All over and over again
