"Portrait Of A Cigarette Smoker At 19"
I used to be a stereotype Half alive with half open eyes With a one track mind And a flawed design Feeling like I was lost At sea at only the age of 19 Floating around in alcohol and apathy Taking in too much caffeine and nicotine If we make it outta here alive Just say you won't look back to see Just who we left behind (there might not be a next time) With all the ups and downs and turn arounds (might not be a next time) To the breaking up to breaking down (might not be a next time) Yeah we were the ones to say (there might not be a next time) I used to be a stereotype Someone you'd never recognize With fingers so yellow That they matched the yellow skies And there was a few things I memorized From all those blurry times Like bottles clinking under blinking signs And a few last words from long lost friends of mine If we make it out of here alive Just say you won't look back to see Just who we left behind (there might not be a next time) With all the ups and downs and turn arounds (might not be a next time) To the breaking up to breaking down (might not be a next time) Yeah we were the ones to say (there might not be a next time) And if we make it outta here alive (if we make outta here alive) Just say you won't look back to see Just who we left behind Just who we left behind After all the fuck ups and fallouts (there might not be a next time) With all the ups and downs and turn arounds (might not be a next time) Through all the breaking up to breaking down (there might not be a next time) Yeah we were the ones to say (there might not be a next time) There might not be a next time (might not be a next time) Words to live by we're all doing just fine |

"Goodbye In Gasoline"
My lungs are aching From the cold from being outside. And the windows in my car Have started to fog up. And it's colder than I remember it ever being in Florida. My stomach's burning And the stereo in this car is screaming so loud. It's 3 a.m. I'm just starting to wake up. And it's darker than I remember it ever being in Florida. The saddest song always plays On the radio on the coldest days, So I'm saying goodbye in gasoline. It's the only way I know My head in spinning And the engine is purring, yeah it's clicking in time. To the pounding in my head And this heart on my sleeve And it's quieter than I remember. And it can go on forever. Do you know how many times How many times I've counted the signs of State lines and roads I've known. I know, this time, feels like goodbye. My lungs are aching From the cold from standing outside. After all this time I'm still fucked up. And it's colder than I remember it ever being in Florida. |
