She says it's no issue But Brody come on home I surely miss you Asking John and Jamie for a tissue Just to dry your eyes cause it's way too late For you to stay the night While you were waiting For your ride home from Jamie's basement Johnny dropped a 40oz on the pavement And you gathered the glass Cause you know he's been drinking that shit Way too fast For your taste Your hearts out of place again and again You never ever thought it could get worse And then you turn around and now your back it hurts It aches like seeing old friends from when you Felt like a kid who could get away with white lies And pitiful sins you stood up straight Then were told to sit down around the same time That I left this town on driftwood Now I'm singing when you should

Shake Shake Shake for me Wait Wait Wait and see If you are here entirely Your tone tells that you're tired of me The phone rings as you're trying to be A person who can feel complete Deep down you cannot compete Cause win or lose you still feel free So why don't you just talk to me Over bagels and iced tea Whats up with all ya friends these days They pop sleep pills and stay awake To see if they can numb the pain That comes along with every day Could never help them anyway They're soiling their perfect brains Coming of the ending age Home has never felt this way Wake Wake Wake for you It's safe Safe Safe to snooze When dreaming of your truly trues Watch you flippin through the new news Catch you walk back in the room Quickest glance of calming blue Subtle hints at loving you The way the way the way I do

Down and Out 03:23
lyrics

A necklace made of shells and pearls Collected for her baby girl She holds A pocket full of dirty glass A picture of her daddy's flask Bless his soul A memory of a jaded man Shaking sifting through their pans Hand in hand And sing a jute box song or two They cradle up like June bugs do Resting in the sand He's a happy man Sirens drowning voice out People scream and people shout Some words Covered in a calmin red They make the earth a moving bed Like birds Robots still get hooked on dope And self destruct like motor boats High on speed Lovers become drenched in love The way the rain pours up above Its what we need To be a happy breed Everything Seems so instinctual In sync with each other's souls Destiny Of intellectual Lilly pads and marigolds Oh yes You know You're gold

You know you're way to cool Yeah you're to cool for school Yeah when you're driving fast Breaking all of the rules You chop it up like that When you move and you groove You're going clap clap clap Down the two ninety two The bass goes boom boom slap Sloppy sound of my drums Could snap a baseball bat With the tip of your tongue And lick a cactus cap Til you trip like you're young In summer sun shine baby Yeah you're just having fun Because We have fun whenever we want to and We have fun however we want to and We have fun no matter the place At the end of the day Throw your money away Because we have fun whenever we want to and We have fun however we want to and We have fun no matter the place At the end of the day Money isn't as great as you I wore a white t shirt And a hoodie today And then I found it hurts Seeing my zipper fray Put in a good days work Just to try to portray That I have half a heart Dumping my blood away Through the stereo sound You found a way to my brain I guess its time to drive Go see muddy and trey Hey hey hey I need a conversation Somewhere between god and satan Life is only contemplation Never worthy of translation Human vermin vocalizing Tyranny ain't compromising Super sonic music mixture Chasing fantasies of fixture Folding up a printed picture Place it in a pack of swisher's Waiting at the smokers table Swapping fact or fiction fable Love in bloom you precious flower We'd just lay in bed for hours So we'd lay in bed for hours So we laid in bed for hours Money never did come easy But your memory holds more meaning Than a dollar five or ten So set it on fire Burn our sins Repent

Keep It That Way 01:13
lyrics

They say the first step to getting somewhere Is to not stay where you are And I guess that means I gotta leave The safety of your car Cause it's a place I would go And bleed out to you Valerie I wanna know if its love But it's valkyrie And I start calling all my old good friends And tell them that I'm sober Maybe I can see out of my eyes again The hurtings finally over and I intend To keep it that way

Love Me More 04:46

She will take my picture and throw it off the shelf Wake up on a Monday not feeling myself It ain't nothing personal that I've been living hard Sues out in the front yard working on her car So now I wait for you Go on sue, cause I'm still waiting I wait for you, I wait for you Wait for you to love me more The way you used to love me before Screaming I've been drinking bubbly at four in the morning My hearts getting sore Mary Sue Personal reflections of persons we obtain Cruising down the highway glued to my left brain Must be going crazy or something of that sort Mary I've been working digging in this dirt So now I wait for you Yeah I'm still waiting after all this time I wait for you She won't call to let me know she's leaving no I try to make a call then I realize I'm just dreaming now Baby don't leave me here broken in this Greensboro town I've been lying to myself and I'm lying all around On the streets on the couch every night of the week When you told me you were leaving well I cried and weeped So I wait for you Wait for you to love me more The way you used to love me before Screaming I quit drinking bubbly at four in the morning And now I'm fixing the heart that you tore Mary Sue
