I want to write about something else How about that time When we drank until the sunrise Got on our skateboards And drank in the Atlantic sunrise Leaving the water We almost stepped on a stingray And then you fell off your skateboard You fucked your hand and elbow up But the show that night was fine I want to think about someone else There was that time When we drank in that abandoned graveyard Then we bombed some hills And lit that fire on the train tracks We laughed as the train came On that night I remembered We would be friends for life Though we drink until the sunrise The show is always fine I want to dream about something else I want to drink about someone else0

Sleep 02:35
Today I suppress the same thoughts As two hundred or so others In perfect synchronization Will this be the end of it all We walk on, we sit down Some take drugs, others sleep We all had that thought I know we had the same thought We had the same thought I often have this recurring dream I am running as planes fall from the sky Planes of all kinds, big or small Attempt to crash into me I can hide but they can see I guess it doesn't feel like kamikaze I don't remember one ever actually killing me But it's horrific It's horrific I'll awake in a cold sweat I'll awake in a cold sweat I'll get sick again Everything spins around And I will sleep again Keep puking Keep sleeping Keep puking Keep sleeping Keep sleeping Keep sleeping

Alone 01:32
Enough with the fuck yous for now Aside from her I am a happy person I share this shit because My life is great your's could be too A friend told me she was amazed How I'm laid back and driven all at the same time I guess it just comes naturally I used to love to sleep Now I'll stay up and drink and Write dumb songs and be alone It's good to be alone So pick up a guitar and sing a song Just play the one that means the most to you right now Fuck everyone else just sing for you And you may learn it's good to be alone I'm starting to forget a life and learn Something new forget the constant reminders And learn someone new So pick up a guitar and sing a song Just play the one that means the most to you right now Fuck everyone else

It's just me and a guitar A tape recorder and some words I'll play some chords to fit the mood And think of you so nothing hurts Someone has already done this But that's alright with me It's just some stupid words And some chords and melody Do you remember when everyone Was here last week? Drunken smiles on faces Most everyone was smoking weed Sometimes I think about Just how good it could be With all my friends in one place Especially you and me The song needs a second verse And I don't wanna repeat the first The chords still play on I think of you and it just gets worse I miss you and you miss me too But that's not enough for me Cause all I have are these Stupid words these fucking chords and melody

Untitled 02:36
Orion's rising in the sky and I can sense that it's that time of year I'll get to drink with all of my friends In that desert we call home We'll burn and drink a million warm-flat beers But I'll be dreaming of the road To everyone it's so important The meaning's not the same But we're all striving for it This time I don't To everyone it's so important The meaning's not the same But we all struggle for it This time I don't This year it's all so odd to me It feels so routine That's not how it's supposed to be On this I feel that I'm alone I'd rather be out on the road Drop everything race towards that burning goal To everyone it's so important The meaning's not the same But we're all striving for it This time I don't To everyone it's so important The meaning's not the same But we all struggle for it This time I don't wanna go But I know when we get there It'll feel like home It feels like home

Thirteen 02:54
A year ago the pain came from my brain It still hurts every once in awhile Thirty years of punishment Thirty years malnourishment And now my body is fighting back I hope my brain isn't just distracting me from itself I'll awake from the pain in my back It's the same ill-filling morning as before Physical more than emotional it attacks the same Fuck yeah it still hurts I hope my brain isn't just distracting me from itself I am at war with my brain And I think that it's winning Killing my body with ease It dies with every drink I'll get sick again It all spins around I'll fall asleep again And dream everything is fine Strive for improvement Try not to let it win Keep puking keep sleeping I hope my brain isn't just distracting me from itself I am at war with my brain And I think that it's winning Killing my body with ease It dies with every drink
7.
I yearn for that first sunny spring day The one when you buy a case of cold beer Call some friends drink with no shirt In the front yard no concern to do your work The ice starts to melt and the sun is out The beers stay cold but the heat it feels so good The winter is so long and all I want is out The summer's coming back but it takes so damn long It's cold but the first snow hasn't fallen Things are bad but it's likely they'll get worse The sun's out but the winter's blowing in The drinks drown my feelings like rehearsed The leaves changed and the fun has come and gone It's hard to think of anything but this It starts to sound like every other song Winter depression's coming early for me this year It's the first snowfall of the drinking season
8.
My friends care if I die And that's the best thing I could ask for Among all the shitty people I've found a lot Who I can trust to be there in the shittiest (fucked up) time of life So it's to you that I drink to tonight The ones who are there 'til we die Now's the time to say it Thanks and I'll love you 'til I die When everything falls apart Cliches all become true But that's what they offer you until a friend speaks brilliance And you start (you fucking will) to pull through I'll pour this second one for you tonight My friends who always speak the truth And now's the time to say it Thanks and I'll love you 'til I die I'll drink this last round for you tonight My friends who are there 'til we die Now's the time to say it Thanks I'll love you 'til I die

This Song 01:29
I should go write that paper But instead I'll write this song I have to study for that final But I sit and play guitar My sleep is all fucked up It's freezing in this fucking town My friends are likely drunk That's the easy way to think you're warm Alone in this tiny town And I still keep fucking up Mostly alone in this tiny town And I still keep drinking up It's five AM and I'm still up Sleeping is my best friend With the worst intentions Distractions keep me sane Texting drinking writing nothing Drinking numbs the brain Don't want to do the shit they want me to I know I miss my friends Pictures just don't do them justice Writing useless words again But I guess they fucking get me through
10.
I've got some shit to do But why do it today? I've finally got a bed And sleep and music and a beer So I'll drink today away I'll hardly leave the bed I'll make some plans that don't pan out Day drink today You can come over if you want But I won't put on a shirt We'll put a couch in the front yard And drink until we puke So we'll drink today away In the sun in the front yard And we'll fall asleep before it's dark Day drink today I'm day drinking today Whiskey beer day drink
11.
I lost my backpack in El Paso It contained one important thing We lost some gear in New Orleans And we also lost our weed We drank and smoked on a porch in Nashville Drank fighting cock with Chris Only one thing that sucked Was coming home to out find that This merch is a pipebomb Fueled by beer in Austin, Texas Dave rode the tall bike down the stairs We played a full basement in Flagstaff There's fucking awesome people there In Vegas TBR showed up We filled that room up with smoke The Buick made it back to Reno And I don't think that we went broke This merch is a pipebomb Punish your Buick Someone stole our merch at the returning show We lost money to guarantee Why come home? Someone found our suitcase in the parking lot With all our shirts, posters, patches and a note that read This merch is a pipebomb
12.
On the brink of something This is about nothing It's not about you or her I write this because I don't have it What it takes to say What I want to tell them Not fully sure what that is Just vague ideas floating around in my brain I can't formulate them Mind can't encapsulate them Can't think of what to say Forever I'll write about nothing My thoughts stay on the same thing Sadness for when y ou leave me Repition about nothing Gotta write this about something There's still a lot more room To address concern for you Those words that I can't write Instead I'll write this pointless rhyme tonight Never gonna say it Won't have the chance to play it For you tonight 'cause you are right Convictions I can't summarize in song And when you talk to me We speak of brilliant things They evade me somehow Before I get a chance to put them down And if they come right back to me Thoughts constantly escaping me I'm missing clarity Lacking pride to say what I want to
13.
Living alone with no TV or internet Can make you realize how unproductive Your life can really be Sometimes the songs just pour out of you There's so much that you want to say To the person that you can't And I don't have the courage for that Maybe I'll find it somewhere I'll keep adding letters To the words that aren't there Everything sounds the same It's all the same I've heard that before It's all been done
