Welcome to the real world
she said to me Condescendingly Take a seat Take your life Plot it out in black and white Well I never lived the dreams of the prom kings And the drama queens I'd like to think the best of me Is still hiding Up my sleeve They love to tell you Stay inside the lines But something's better On the other side I wanna run through the halls of my high school I wanna scream at the Top of my lungs I just found out there's no such thing as the real world Just a lie you've got to rise above So the good boys and girls take the so called right track Faded white hats Grabbing credits Maybe transfers They read all the books but they can't find the answers And all of our parents They're getting older I wonder if they've wished for anything better While in their memories Tiny tragedies They love to tell you Stay inside the lines But something's better On the other side I wanna run through the halls of my high school I wanna scream at the Top of my lungs I just found out there's no such thing as the real world Just a lie you've got to rise above I am invincible You are invincible We are invincible As long as I'm alive I wanna run through the halls of my high school I wanna scream at the Top of my lungs I just found out there's no such thing as the real world Just a lie you've got to rise above I just can't wait til my 10 year reunion I'm gonna bust down the double doors And when I stand on these tables before you You will know what all this time was for |

Back to you
It always comes around Back to you I tried to forget you I tried to stay away But it's too late Over you I'm never over Over you Something about you It's just the way you move The way you move me Yeah I'm so good at forgetting And I quit every game I play But forgive me love I can't turn and walk away not this way Back to you It always comes around Back to you I walk with your shadow I'm sleeping in my bed With your silhouette Yeah should have smiled in that picture If it's the last that I'll see of you It's the least that you Could not do Leave the light on I'll never give up on you Leave the light on For me too Oh for me too For me too yeah Back to me I know that it comes Back to me Doesn't it scare you Your will is not as strong As it used to be |

I never liked this apple much
it always seemed too big to touch I can't remember how I found My way before she came around I tell everyone I smile just because I got a city love I found it in Lydia and I can't remember life before her name she keeps a toothbrush at my place as if I had the extra space she steals my clothes to wear to work I know her hairs are on my shirts I tell everyone I smile just because I got a city love I found it in Lydia and I can't remember life before the day she called up and came to me covered in rain dinnertime shadowing and as the clothes spun we spooned and I knew I was through when I said, "I love you" Friday evening we've been drinking 2 AM I swear I might propose but we close the tab split a cab and call each other up when we get home falling asleep to the sound of sirens I got a city love I found it in Lydia from the battery to the gallery its the kind of thing you only see in scented glossy magazines and I can't remember life before her name |

I wish I was
Cause then I'd know I was down because I couldn't find a friend around To love me like they do right now They do right now I'm dizzy from the shopping mall I searched for joy but I bought it all It doesn't help the hunger pain And a thirst I'd have to drown first to ever satiate Something's missing And I don't know how to fix it Something's missing And I don't know what it is At all When autumn comes It doesn't ask It just walks in where it left you last You never know when it starts Until there's fog inside the glass around your summer heart Something's missing And I don't know how to fix it Something's missing And I don't know what it is At all I can't be sure that this state of mine is not of my own design I wish there was an over-the-counter test For loneliness like this Something's missing And I don't know how to fix it Something's missing And I don't know what it is No, I don't know what it is Somethin's different And I don't know what it is No I don't know what it is Friends (Check) Money (Check) A well slept opposite sex Guitar ( Check) Microphone (Check) Messages waiting on me when I come home |

Staying home alone on a Friday
Flat on the floor looking back On old love Or lack thereof After all the crushes are faded And all my wishful thinking was wrong I'm jaded I hate it I'm tired of being alone So hurry up and get here So tired of being alone So hurry up and get here Searching all my days just to find you I'm not sure who I'm looking for I'll know it When I see you Until then, I'll hide in my bedroom Staying up all night just to write A love song for no one I'm tired of being alone So hurry up and get here So tired of being alone So hurry up and get here I could have met you in a sandbox I could have passed you on the sidewalk Could I have missed my chance And watched you walk away? I'm tired of being alone So hurry up and get here So tired of being alone So hurry up and get here You'll be so good You'll be so good for me |

I am driving up
85 in the kind of morning that Lasts all afternoon I'm just stuck inside the gloom Four more exits to my apartment but I am tempted to Keep the car in drive And leave this shit behind Cuz I wonder sometimes About the outcome Of a still verdictless life Am I living it right? Am I living it right? Am I living it right? Why, why georgia why I rent a room and I Fill the spaces with Wood in places to Make it feel like home But all I feel's alone It might be a quarter life crisis Or just the stirring in my soul Either way I wonder sometimes About the outcome Of a still verdictless life Am I living it right? Am I living it right? Am I living it right? Why, why georgia why So what, so I've got a smile on But it's hiding the quiet superstitions in my head Don't believe me Don't you dare believe me When I say I've got it down Everybody is just a stranger but That's the danger in going my own way I guess that 's the price I have to pay Still, |

the afternoon You got this room for two One thing I've left to do Discover me discovering you One mile to every inch of Your skin like porcelain One pair of candy lips And your bubblegum tongue And if you want love we'll make it Swimming a deep sea of blankets Take all your big plans and break'em This is bound to be a while Your body is a wonderland Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands) Your body is a wonderland Something 'bout the way Your hair falls in your face I love the shape you take When crawling towards the pillowcase You tell me where to go and Though I might leave to find it I'll never let your head hit the bed Without my hand behind it You want love we'll make it Swimming a deep sea of blankets Take all your big plans and break'em This is bound to be a while Your body is a wonderland Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands) Your body is a wonderland Damn baby you frustrate me I know you're mine all mine all mine But you look so good it hurts sometimes~ Your body is a wonderland Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands) Your body is a wonderland Your body is a wonderland Da ra ra da ra ra ra ra ra Da ra ra da da da da Da ra ra da ra ra ra ra ra Da ra ra da da da da Da ra ra da ra ra ra ra ra Da ra ra da da da da Da ra ra da ra ra ra ra ra Da ra ra da da da da Da ra ra da ra ra ra ra ra Da ra ra da da da da Da ra ra da ra ra ra ra ra Da ra ra da da da da~ |

My stupid mouth
Has got me in trouble I said too much again To a date over dinner yesterday And I could see She was offended She said well anyway Just dying for a subject change Oh another social casualty Score one more for me How could I forget Mama said think before speaking No filter in my head Oh what's a boy to do I guess her better find one soon We bit our lips She looked out the window Rolling tiny balls of napkin paper I played a quick game of chess With the salt and pepper shaker And I could see clearly An indelible line was drawn Between what was good What just slipped out and what went wrong Oh the way she feels about me has changed Thanks for playing try again How could I forget Mama said think before speaking No filter in my head Oh what's a boy to do I guess he better find one I'm never speaking up again It only hurts me I'd rather be a mystery Than she desert me Oh I'm never speaking up again Starting now Starting now One more thing Why is it my fault So maybe I try too hard But it's all because of this desire I just wanna be liked Looks like the jokes on me So call me captain backfire I'm never speaking up again It only hurts me I'd rather be a mystery Than she desert me Oh I'm never speaking up again I'm never speaking up again I'm never speaking up again Starting now Starting now |

These days with the world getting colder
She spends more time sleeping over Than I planned Tonight we're gonna order in Drinking wine and watching CNN It's dark I know but then again It's the brightest thing I got When I'm covered in rain rain When I'm covered in rain rain rain rain If a fire works in fire places Some are stole in far away places Now we're people watching other people People watching us rather than Standing down the missing signs At the CVS by the checkout line She puts her crying hand in mine Cause she's the brightest thing I got When I'm covered in rain rain When I'm covered in rain rain rain rain No I'm covered in rain No I'm covered in rain No I'm covered in rain Come december lydia left She mentioned something about it being for the best And I can't say I disagree It's killing me So now I'm standing facing west Tracing my fingers 'round a silhouette That I haven't gotten used to yet But it's the brightest thing I got And I'm covered in rain |

I have these dreams I'm walking home
home where it used to be everything is as it was frozen in front of me here I stand six feet small romanticizing years ago but it's a bittersweet feeling hearing "Wrapped Around Your Finger" on the radio and these days I wish I was six again oh make me a red cape I wanna be Superman oh if only my life was more like 1983 all these things would be more like they were at the start of me had it made in 83 thinking 'bout my brother Ben I miss him everyday he looks just like his brother John but on an eighteen month delay here I stand six feet small and smiling cause I'm scared as hell kinda like your life is like a sequel to a movie where the actors' names have changed well well these days I wish I was six again oh make me a red cape I wanna be Superman oh if only my life was more like 1983 all these things would be more like they were at the start of me if my life was more like 1983 plot a course to the source of the purest little part of me and most my memories have escaped me or confused themselves with dreams if heaven's all they want it to be send your prayers to me care of 1983 you can paint that house a rainbow of colors rip out the floorboards replace the shutters but that's my plastic in the dirt whatever happened to my whatever happened to my whatever happened to my lunchbox when came the day that it got thrown away and don't you think I should have had some say in that decision if only my life if only my life if only my life if only my life if only my life (fades singing if only my life) |

when sky blue gets dark enough
to see the colors of the city lights a trail of ruby red and diamond white hits her like a sunrise she comes and goes and comes and goes like no one can tonight she's out to lose herself and find a high on Peachtree Street from mixed drinks to techno beats it's always heavy into everything she comes and goes and comes and goes like no one can she comes and goes and no one knows she's slipping through my hands she's always buzzing just like neon, neon neon, neon who knows how long, how long, how long she can go before she burns away I can't be her angel now you know it's not my place to hold her down and it's hard for me to take a stand when I would take her anyway I can she comes and goes and comes and goes like no one can she comes and goes and no one knows she's slipping through my hands she's always buzzing just like neon, neon neon, neon who knows how long, how long, how long she can go before she burns away |
