January, Backdoor

Walking ‘round the park where we first met
are you from the suburbs? born and bred
going to extremes to sound interesting is your thing

made it to the backstop--smoked a few
faced towards a dirt pile--what a view
then you kissed me right there no one else around
knew what we found

oh, I know you now
oh, I know you now
oh, I know you now
oh, I know you now

January back door soaking wet
the elevator scares you but I haven't died yet
you're staring at my bookshelves they're all over my head
and unread

tones begin to wander in and through
you know me in the same way I know you
I am just a roadside and you are on your way
All day

oh, I know you now
oh, I know you now
oh, I know you now
oh, I know you now

oh, I know you now
oh, I know you now
oh, I know you now
oh

I’m Gone

Feelings fade after time
Nothing's broken wheels that turn start to bind
And the windows turn frozen

You make me angry overnight
In a dream you came to me you seemed so uptight
Could it kill you to calm down

I never meant to make you cryyyy
No it’s alright I’ve been acting petty this time
And I wish I was sorry

I never liked your little lies
“Don’t worry baby, you’ll be alright,
you’ll be just fine”
Would you just be honest

I’ve been feeling lost for far too long
Now i'm gone

Can't go out the way I came its dark
Not a spark, not far away, I couldn't stay
Now I’m gone

Take me back a couple years
Hope you don’t mind don’t you know you were my first time
And it was over in a moment

An apex never fit us right
We weren’t meant to blow up like a display of lights
Just to flicker as we drove off

I’ve been feeling lost for far too long
Now i'm gone
Can't go out the way I came its dark
Not a spark, Not far away, I couldn't stay
Now I’m gone

Feelings fade after time
Never always certain saying goodbye

I’ve been feeling lost for far too long
Now i'm gone
Can't go out the way I came its dark
Not a spark, Not far away, I couldn't stay
Now I’m gone

Nothing Like Your Smile (To Bring Me Down)

The sunset on the buildings is blinding
it's pretty but you know it's fading now
flipping through the memories like a picture book
nothing like your smile to bring me down

put my mind at ease even lie just don't say goodbye

I need you can't you see I'm crying
I need you don't you need me too?
I'm living while you're busy dying
going on without you is terrifying

the end of the road is kind of Dusty
it's hard to breathe and it makes you think twice
do I want to be here or am I just afraid to go
no I didn't ask for your advice

won't you stick around I don't want much more I'm on the floor

I need you can't you see I'm crying
I need you don't you need me too?

Everyone dies in the End

Half my life has passed I'm only 21 and a half
I'm a sitting duck
I'll die in a plane crash or have a heart attack counting my footsteps
‘cause that's just my luck

oh babe I'm fading away everyone does in the end
we're so face-to-face now I like it that way
but everyone dies in the end

half my life has passed at least it feels like that
do whatever you want with me
let's go out tonight I'll make you feel alright I turned on all the
street lights for you

oh babe I'm fading away everyone does in the end
we're so face-to-face now I like it that way
but everyone dies in the end

No shame when we talk
We just leave the door unlocked, walking on the sidewalk as the sun's going down
We'd laugh and we’d cry
together we've got twice as high, climbing on the uprights looking over the field

oh babe I'm fading away everyone does in the end
we're so face-to-face now I like it that way
but everyone dies in the end

I Was Wrong

How have you been lately, I'm alright
have you been talking to your friends that no one seems to like
I can't seem to put you out of my mind
Motion Picture, radio, and TV all the time

remember when I told you hard times pass you by I was wrong I was wrong

A thousand pounds of dynamite cargo
sitting at a bus stop smoking ready to explode
I've been doing better by the boatload
If somethings holding tight youll find its easy to outgrow

Remember when i told you you'd be fine I was wrong I was wrong

A thorns been stabbing deeper into my side
The doctor said there's nothing more to do it's there for life
You move around the city like a house fly
Until you don’t Until you don't Until you dont

Remember when i told you I'd love you all the time
I was wrong
I was so wrong
