I know you caught me stammering but how about my handle?
How about my manners?
Sorry about my language I swear
You wonder how my day went
I wonder where my day went
I wonder where my pay went
I wonder if I’m losing my cool
Think about it often
And you got your Datsun picked out
And mine is still in the shop
What’ll you do with that information?
It’s starting to get old
And there’s something you have to know
That you’re so irrational
And one of us just has to go
That’s just how it played out
And baby we’ll be back for more
If that’s for sure we’ll have to see
And all these things they have to go
That’s just how it works for me
And all these things they have to go
And you mistake me for some passive aggressive
Asshole repressive in skates
And you won’t take
Any advice from me so why’d I even bother loosening my laced tens
And you patiently wait for me to break in
And you pacing back and forth my mind is racing
We put a tape on and take it slow
And there’s something you have to know
That you’re so irrational
And one of us just has to go
That’s just how it played out
And baby we’ll be back for more (I feel impulsive)
If that’s for sure (I came and pulled it)
we’ll have to see (I am so full of it man)
And all these things they have to go
(Fuck all your policies just keep it open)
That’s just how it works for me (I am still full of it man)
And all these things they have to go

I'm Not Anywhere (Faded)

I gotta see about you cuz you've been acting strange
Don't wanna be around you
I gotta tell my friends about you
Where you've been and where you went
When you had to run
And I know that you can't hear me
You can't feel me but I'm right here
You've got that
I know there's nowhere to run
And we get home too late
I get home
And love it don't come easy to you I swear it will but
You got to just play it on back
You got to get some sleep
We can't always fight about
Your slurred words and your perverse sense of worth
We're just too dumb to savor it
Now he's frayed to bits 'stead he stays and fidgets
And there must be some kind of way through it
Medicate a bit hollow days and Christmas
And you must have some kind of maze to drift through
A daze of ripped jeans and paper thin mints
And there must be some kind of way through it
There he stays and sits medicated kisses
I gotta see about you (cuz you've been acting strange)
I gotta be around you (some shit don't ever change)
And now I see that every time you leave
It takes a lot out of me to miss you when I'm down on my fills
Like all the staring animals
And I'm hanging on your wall you know?
You gotta see it for yourself
I wont and she don't
But I love to brag about her
Because I know if I won't she won't
We're just too dumb to savor it
Now he's frayed to bits 'stead he stays and fidgets
And there must be some kind of way through it
Medicate a bit hollow days and Christmas
And you must have some kind of maze to drift through
A daze of ripped jeans and paper thin mints
And there must be some kind of way through it
There he stays and sits medicated kisses

I got it ma'am you got a man
More hollow and he buys you plenty
I got it girl give me a whirl
Give you the world with pockets empty
And following is harder than breathing out
Or breathing in
I'm not gonna say it you already know
I gave you the bayonet back it's time for the show
There's nothing to see here man
It depends on the growth
Of how you believed in it when it was under your nose
Just like you were seventeen
But none of the cloves
And I like how she's seldom seen in designer brand
Behind a man she knows
I got it ma'am you got a man
More hollow and he buys you plenty
I got it girl give me a whirl
Give you the world with pockets empty
And following is harder than breathing out
Or breathing in
And the main thing that I can tell you about is how
I ran off racing you caught him other places
Oh cry to me
Don't cry to me again
On the phone you're saying that you're so blessed
Sing you something soon to fit the frame
Of how you pictured it before she came
Now you're wishing it were still the same
But it's the only hope that ever remains
And as you waste your days away
And as you can't let go or stay
And while you wish your woes to the wayside you know I'm still the same kind of guy
I got it ma'am you got a man
More hollow and he buys you plenty
I got it girl give me a whirl
Give you the world with pockets empty
And following is harder than breathing out
Or breathing in

You stuck with them old friends dying on the beach
You hip to them old trends trying not to preach
You stuck with them old friends lying through to their teeth
Angie get in with them
Get in with them
It's always something that you gotta say to me oh and I fell in love with it and you
I'm stuck with them old friends dying on the beat
You hip to them old trends
You hip to them old trends
You stuck with them old friends lying through their teeth
Angie get in with them
Get in with them
I don't know though
Baby yes of course I'm in love
Oh you don't know though?
Baby yes of course
I don't know though
Baby yes of course I'm in love
Oh you don't know though
Baby yes of course
It's always something that you gotta say to me oh and I fell in love with it and you
What you gonna do now?
Tell me what you're gonna do
I'm stuck with them old friends dying on the beach
Get hip to them old trends lying on my feet
You stuck with them old friends lying through their teeth
Angie get in with them
You always stuck with them old friends dying on the beach
I sip to them old friends
I sip to them old friends
I spend all my time on my clothes
No way no
Your old friends they got caught up with the new trends
And it's all good
Don't run away it takes time, head out and get it
Those balmy days
It takes time

Alone In The Center

She say her phone don't work don't bother me
You missed the mark on all apostrophes
You say they're all gonna hurt you possibly
But there ain't anything I can do
And the truth is you're telling me lately that you've seen me around
And I'm almost out of ideas for you
And I can't see straight
I know that there's a heartache ahead
But I am not focused on that right now
I just can't be alone in the center
I can't be alone in the center
I can't be alone
Shit I'm lazy but you see me
Sinking in over and over again (and life keeps rolling on)
Can't see me sinking in
But I'm doing it over and over again (and you keep holding on)
Because I can't believe that you really here
And I'm in a mood
And I can't believe that I am with you
And you me too
I just can't stay alone in the center
I can't stay alone in the center
I can't stay alone
You and me baby I'm at home
Oh I am taking it all from you
I'll be sorry if it don't work out at all
(and you'll even call like)
"Oh I love you, I love you yes I do"
I love you
I love you yes I
I just can't be alone in the center
I can't be alone in the center
I can't be alone oh babe
Maybe we're
Maybe we're gone
Maybe we'll throw on some Bennie and the Jets
Throw it on
You love it
Throw it on
You love it
You love that song
Go ahead throw it on
Yeah oh baby now we're moving back in
