how do you choose to be alone
when the devil that you know
still keeps you warm
it’s a moving sidewalk
so doing nothing wrong
is not enough anymore
you’re heading down that path
unless you do the math
and you go twice as fast the other way
but if you just sit still you’re stuck
you’re bound to go that way
well sitting still’s kinda been my thing these days
natalie depends on me for structure and consistency
but she’s the one reminding me to eat
and sleep
if i can’t even take care of myself
then i’m not sure what the hell
i ever thought that i could teach
that leaves me caught between
reluctantly trying to be a role model
while praying she grows up to be
anyone but me
it’s not too late for her
but it’s too late for me
to be anyone but me
i only get this way after a rough day or if i’m drunk
but all my days are rough and i’m always druuuuuunk
when every last distraction
or medicated lack thereof
can only come up short won’t be enough
to clear up all the traffic in my head
or the static in my blood
it’s not just bad moods or bad habits
it’s the fact that i am stuck
counting bus stops
obsessing over jayne from that sharpless show
i think i put my name wrong in her phone
spend the ride back to crown heights
thinking of what it would be like
if everybody had a head like mine
what a fucking joke

it seems like i’ve forgot a lot
like how to help the ones i love
and how to tell the difference between medicine and drugs
while it feels like i’m just biding time until some god above
gets his grimy hands around the throat of
someone else i love
if i were you i’d hate me too
so i guess we’re pretty lucky ii’m not you
‘cause i hate you too
the last thing i wanna see
is movies of my dreams
cause they’re usually dumb and someone always leaves
lately feeling better just feels weird
i almost miss feeling bad
i like making people laugh
but i hate being late to everything
and always being mad
seeing double every morning
and by night i’m seeing red
if i were you i’d hate me too
so i guess i’m pretty lucky ii’m not you
‘cause i hate you too
the last thing i wanna see
is movies of my dreams
they’re usually dumb and someone always leaves

Busy (Ugly Before)

tell myself today is almost over
tell myself tomorrow will be better
if the methods never change
the results just stay the same
but i still tell myself tomorrow will be better
spend a friday afternoon in bed
so i can go out, spend a friday night
stuck inside my head
a backpack full of forties
a ford fiesta full of friends
but i’d rather just go home and back to bed
you don’t have to go home baby
you just can’t stay here
i like you too much to let you wait on me this year
maybe next year will be better
i can tell you what you wanna hear
tell myself today is almost over
while i tell myself tomorrow will be better
but the methods never change
so the results just stay the same
i still tell myself tomorrow will be better

you were in til you were out
i was here til i was gone
you insisted i was different til the day i proved you wrong
and now it seems like these days
i only like the way i look
in pictures with strangers
‘cause they’re the only ones who know the new me, not the old me
and god knows that’s the only way anyway finds me funny these days
these dark, dark days
“i know she hurt you bad,
i know what you’re going through
you wish that things were different?
well i sure as hell do to
hey man, what gives you the right
to go and try to fix yourself on someone else’s time?
you wasted mine
fuck you you wasted mine”
well i’d rather be drunk the back of a cab
that you called me
to come meet you at some party
where i’ll surely hate everyone but you
but i’ll find some wall to talk to
and wait for you to be able to
take me to your apartment
cause no one ever felt like home like someone i could never call home

Never Lucky

dad left me a pretty short to do list
but like most things it proved to be too much
so i haven’t paid the bills but i’ve got excuses
for why i’ll be a little late this month
i've needed you more than ever lately
mostly cause i don't know how to use
half the shit you left me
you’ll never get to hear this song
or any for that matter
i miss that stupid face you made
we should have started that ska band before it was too late
but when your minds made up like that
you know mine doesn’t matter
no matter how much i wish you were here
outside killing cowboys with kate
while our friends do the same thing they do every day
the same thing i do every fucking day
when the going gets rough
the cowards get drunk
point fingers in their sleep
it’s so much easier than waking up
when the going gets rough
the cowards get drunk
point fingers in their sleep
you got to leave
but we still have to wake up

Bury Me at Penn Station

learning to be happy where you're at
doesn't really change the fact
that where you're at isn't where you should be
'cause where i'm at is the cul de sac
my dad lived as a kid
katie's moving mountains
and i haven't moved an inch
from the place i keep my stuff
can't earn my keep just keep on saying thanks for
the roof i'm doing nothing to keep up
it's gonna take some time to realign
but if i'd look inside i'm sure i'd find
wherever i wanna end up when the shows are all over and i'm back in charge of my life
i think it'd be nice
if you were here and things were different
or if you were here and they stayed the same
put your hands over my ears i swear i can hear the ocean
i finally found something good
in the very last place i looked
and if it's all right with you
then i think i'll hang here tooooOOooOo
i finally found something good
in the last place i looked
and it'd be all right with me
if it's the last place that i'll ever be
cause all things considered things aren't all that bad
