I FEEL SO
Sometimes
I wish I was brave
I wish I was stronger
Wish I could feel no pain
Wish I was young
Wish I was shy
I wish I was honest
Wish I was you not I

‘Cause
I feel so mad
I feel so angry
Feel so careless
So lost, confused, again
Feel so cheap
So used, unfaithful
Let’s start over!
Let’s start over!

Sometimes
I wish I was smart
I wish I made cures for
How people are
I wish I had power
I wish I could lead
I wish I could change the world
For you and me

‘Cause
I feel so mad
I feel so angry
Feel so careless
So lost, confused, again
Feel so cheap
So used, unfaithful
Let’s start over!
Let’s start over!


ALL SYSTEMS GO
[Tom]
I left my fear behind me,
Of those lights out by the station,
The government is lying,
The youth they won’t believe them,

[Chorus]
We can’t go
Wrong can’t get
Fucked this time
Speak up now
Lose or get
Left behind

[Tom]
When will this be over,
This cold and bitter season,
The government is lying,
The truth is found with reason,

We can’t go
Wrong can’t get
Fucked this time
Speak up now
Lose or get
Left behind

[Tom]
We are the
Underrated
All forgotten
Kids who made it
Speak up now
Lose or get
Left behind


WATCH THE WORLD
I watched the smoke, as it grew darker and blew up through the roof
I watched the fed, saw them panic, as the fire grew
I saw Virginia, get rid of Langley, and its secrets too
I held your hand, and sat there knowing, that we'd make it through

I saw this man disposed of hunger and soap operas too
I saw this field, that grew perfection, full of things you do
I saw this box, get rid of heartache and cure cancer too
When I awoke I sat there hoping, this is what we’ll do

If we can, we will leave a letter and this song for you
And we’ll write once a day and float it through the sea to you
We’ll regret all those things we thought of but didn't ever do

If we can we will leave a letter and this song for you
And we’ll write once a day and float it through the sea to you
We’ll regret all those things we thought of but didn’t ever do
When the sky seems to clear who will then be left, but a few, me and you


TINY VOICES
I’ve been all pinched up since Saturday
I’ve run my self dry of excellence
16 long years in-hale the bullshit in
Whatever I said on Saturday
Whatever I did I’ll do it all again
19 marks up walls
Each year one short fall of

Tiny voices, make things harder
Everybody will be let down

What is this for ex-parking lot?
The dreamers go buy they never stop
20 plus 5 in let the youth cave in

Tiny voices, make things harder
Everybody will be let down


CAT LIKE THIEF
I fell down again
But I can’t complain
Another false step
Could drive me insane
I only got myself here to blame
So I shake off the seat and I start again
Oh no I said I wanna go back
But I can’t win the shit
And I’m gonna stay on track
Yeah, make a deal like that
I keep my head up but I never react

I wrote it down, a list a month ago
16 chapters of one thing you've blown
The best thing yet to help you
Through and through that she was
I feel her more than you

Don’t leave
Don’t leave her

(Yeah!)
I get up
Just to get knocked back down
I sit up
Just to get knocked all around
I wanna say something
But your out of town
I don’t wanna have another
Short down say stand up (hey, yo)
Let’s make it clear follow you home (no)
You were not there you saw him coming (jump)
You disappear home alone every night
Seems so clear you think you see me here
All alone got my crew coming now
One by one
Two by two
Three by three
Four by four
Let’s do some more

Call me back when word is that she’s gone
Cat like thief she stole air from my lungs
Leave me standing on this lonely grave
I dug it out in case she turns away

Don’t leave, don’t leave, don’t leave her

You think you see me
all alone
Got my crew coming
one by one
Two by two
Three by three
Four by four
Let’s do some more

Don't leave, don't leave, don’t leave her


AND I
Lost in the crowd
I’m standing in line
I’m feeling so down
And I am full of doubt
She’s not the one
Take notice hear me out

And I want her, need her and you
Always will pull me through

I’m tired
This game’s so dumb
She never played
Her race is won
I’m tired
Can’t smile no more
I’ll sure cave in
Just like before

And I want her, need her and you
Always will pull me through
And I want her, need her and you
Always will pull me through

And I want her, need her

And I
And I
And I


LETTERS TO GOD
Caught off guard
all worked up
the air is as dark and cold as night
let me go
I’m not done
I swear I’ll take this one lifetime and I

I won’t lie
I won’t sin
maybe I don’t wanna go
can’t you wait?
maybe I don’t wanna go

I should’ve asked
I could’ve helped
at least a fucking 1,000 times before
will this offer get me in
or does it prove that they gave more and I?

I won’t lie
I won’t sin
maybe I don’t wanna go
can’t you wait?
maybe I don't wanna go


MY FIRST PUNK SONG
It’s 24 to nothing and I’m at the intersection,
waiting for the light that's green,
waiting for a reason,
take them all and stack them up,
not in my collection,
hit them all and watch them fly
fuck them all and watch them drown,
what is with these bands that keep commin' with there politics,
they never went to school to find out that they were full of shit,
I didn’t really either,
but fuck I guess it really doesn’t matter,
you took this time to listen to me,
so I’ll say hey I fucked your brother,

there’s one problem,
I got brownies,
from your mother,
they gave me syphilis now I got no dick... fucker


SORROW
Because I need you more
Than you need me
Because I want you more
I know

Because we move
Too fucking fast
I think I really had to
Wish to make this last
I know

I’m sorry,
Please forgive me
Believe me if you want

Because I cared way more
Because I really felt that
You felt so much more
I know

I’m sorry
Please forgive me
Believe me if you want

I’m sorry
Please forgive me
Believe me if you could


THERE IS
This vacation’s useless
These white pills aren't kind
I’ve given a lot of thought
On this 13 hour drive
I missed the grinded concrete
Where we sat past eight or nine
And slowly finished lapping
In the glow of our headlights
I’ve given a lot of thought to
The nights we used to have
The days have come and gone
Our lives went by so fast
I faintly remember breathing
On your bedroom floor
Where I laid and told you
But you swear you loved me more

Do you care if I don’t know what to say?
Will you sleep tonight?
Will you think of me?
Will I shake this off?
Pretend its all okay
That there's someone out there who feels just like me
There is

Those notes you wrote me
I’ve kept them all
I’ve given a lot of thought of how to write you back this fall
With every single letter
In every single word
There will be a hidden message
About a boy that loves a girl

Do you care if I don’t know what to say?
Will you sleep tonight?
Will you think of me?
Will I shake this off?
Pretend its all okay
That there’s someone out there who feels just like me
There is...


THE END WITH U
Our days are running thin
our hops will start to fall
I can feel the world collapse around me from within
and the letters keep coming by to let us know when time will die
and please god will you forgive us and give us one more try

If you will then we’ll go as fast as we go far
maybe well be forgotten when the world is torn apart

I’ve been up all night long
counting days that all went wrong
I opened my bedroom window
I wish this pain was gone
there are no useful drugs to escape from feeling numb
I remember an amazing birthday
I remember when i was young

If you will then we’ll go as fast as we go far
maybe we’ll be forgotten when the world is torn apart
‘cause the sun won't be so blinding
and the rains will finally come
the axis will slowly pile up just to prove we’re finally done


ELEVATOR
The building turned its back, ignored my call
The concrete looks too thin to break my fall
The sunset’s stretched across this nighttime scene
I counted people as I neared the street below

Whoa oh oh
Below
Whoa oh oh

I saw it all
I saw it all go down
The shadow grew as he
Approached the ground
The sunset’s stretched across this nighttime scene
I turned away as he came near the street below

Whoa oh oh
Below
Whoa oh oh
Below

Let’s forget this all, move on


[instrumental theme]

fuckin enjoy it all!!!
