Sunday Morning
06:04
|

|
The sun is flooding in I've been asleep for half the day now
Woke up in different clothes or maybe they're just inside out
My routine is now fucked, jaw is clenched so hard I can't chew
Noon is coming up, Sunday morning is gone just like you
The house is just a mess but my head hurts way too much to care
Plus that kid is on the couch, I can't remember why he's here
I wonder why I bothered, me and the toilet share a secret or two* (#grammar)
Noon is coming up, Sunday morning is gone just like you
(Get up)
My friends are waking up, we rehash last night's events
My mood is getting worse as I learn some things about myself
The town is cold and quiet, in five days it'll be a zoo
And noon is coming up, Sunday morning is gone just like you
(Get up)
When the boxed wine has started to flow like the water from Horseshoe Falls
Sunday morning is garbage, and I can't make it better with just one call
When did my perception of life fall out of phase with my own head?
I'll lean on my heroes as I get ready for next weekend

Decisions
05:28

I have a permanent scar on my left shin in place of permanent ink
I carry all of my poor life decisions around in splotches of pink
My antics might sometimes get me in trouble with people I hardly know
Maybe if one day I get rich and famous, maybe she'll come to my show
Well if you have the chance then take it
Put your bashful thoughts aside
It's hard for you and I to embrace it
Please don't let it stop you
There's things I probably shouldn't have done and plenty I probably should
But I'm still standing here 20 years old, *oh no here come the second thoughts*
Cause odds are I haven't even met my wife yet, and that fact scares me half to death
What are the chances I saw her last night
Well I guess I'll just have to make up for that
But if I had my chance would I take it?
Put my bashful thoughts aside
Would I be able to embrace it
Forever?
(The chorus of this song is gobbledygook)
So if you have the chance then take it
The only thing it hurts is pride
Better to take a fall than waste it
Please
I've had my share of social flagrance
But I don't want to run and hide
Murphy's Law don't trade a stupid decision for another five years of life
(gobbledygook & oohs)

Carcinogen
05:27

It's a tale as old as time
The inconsiderate mind
Prays on the weaker being but you're the week one cause you won't show your feelings, no
You just bury them in a pile
Of vices and put on a smile as you take others' hopes and dreams and compress them into a lifeless machine like yourself
When the mirror's staring back
Do you ever get the nerve to act?
If that memory stung would you still exploit the weak or especially the young?
You can light up your cigarette, but that light in your eye is a threat
To everything you know, and pretty soon just like a cancer those thoughts will grow
No I don't want your advice
Cause you don't really know what I'm like
You remind me that there are people who cause young girls to starve themselves
You get angry at everything
And the worst part is that over time
I've begun to see you in me and iot's starting to fuck with my sanity because
You and I are not the same
I've played along with your game
But now I've started to find myself so thanks but no thanks I no longer need your help
Let me light your cigarette
Cause the light in my eyes has set me on a new road
If you don't like it you don't like me and that's why I'll go

What I Need To Be
05:04
|
|||
|
A sentimental nothing
An empty memory
The kind of thing you want until discomfort interferes
Sometimes I get to thinking
I lied, I always knew
Now that it's in the past what can the real me really do
And here they all surround me
The ghosts of suitors past
All the measures taken
So far have turned out flat
That's when I get to thinking that maybe something's wrong
Eventually I'll come to terms and write another song
While my mind may self impede
I long to know what I need to be
If in my hand I hold the key
Then why am I the enemy?
I wish that I could mirror my love for VHS
They're worthless pieces of plastic yet they remind me of myself
And someone might be thinking that maybe I was right?
Well one of the lines in Sail Away turned out to be a lie
So who's the girl that's living in the yellow house?
The one who used to love me
Please won't you come out?
I have some things to answer for
You probably don't care
But knowing at one point you did helped purify the air
While my mind may self impede
I long to know what I need to be
If in my hand I hold the key
Then why am I the enemy?
Trust your gut don't think too hard
Open up don't fall apart
In my hand I hold the key
To everlasting (indiscernible)

A Heart

Five five blonde graphic artist
I am looking for somebody who can show me a good time
Take time to word your motives
If she doesn't want to see you then she won't give you the right
I'll give you contemplation
But you've only got five pictures to tell me who you truly are
Your right foot don't forget it
Well she might just last forever
Even if it's as a scar
There's just know way of knowing
Are you running out of time?
And the way this year has been going
Is it past the normal line?
Don't you even have a heart?
Maybe you should start
Softening boundaries
I promise things won't fall apart
Reality is harsh
But we could be a team
What about this is so upsetting
I've done scarier things in my lifetime
Yeah that I know for sure
LittleBoy your brain is not useless
Lend an ear to your subconscious
He's giving you a clue
"Oh her eyes how they sparkle like the rings of distant chimes
If my Venus is in orbit, does that mean we'll work out fine?"
But don't you even have a heart?
Maybe you should start
Softening boundaries
I promise things won't fall apart
Reality is harsh
But we could be a team
Don't you even have a heart?
Maybe you should start
Softening boundaries
I promise things won't fall apart
Reality is harsh
But we could be a team
(Jam)

You Me & I
06:00

There's something inside of your eyes
That sparkles like precious stones
And your mouth would form into a smile
With teeth so white I go blind
Your hair shines bright in the sun
It's color illusive to me
Beneath it the mind of Athena
The heart of a being
But to hold you tight
Is something that I
I'd have to see to believe
(I want you to know)
Six weeks and I still haven't made
My move but you know I'm shy
We talk about anything
Our conversations never run dry
You lay your head on my shoulder
I press my head right back
Together in radio silence
I started to think while we sat
That to call you mine
Is something that I
I couldn't wait to achieve
(I want you to know)
(Bridge)
But to know you're mine
Is something that I
I'm almost afraid to see
And you know I've tried
There's things in my mind
I need to beat to be free
(I want you to know)
But just not today

Can't Last

You
You were a waiterss
We didn't meet at a cocktail bar
I didn't have the balls to fake it
You, you know what I mean
We'd sit around together for hours until your boss told me to leave
Let's live right now while we're young
I have a 9am tomorrow but lets stay here until we see the sun
And now we go home
Love you see you tomorrow, today... right
I won't be here forever though
I know you won't be too
But does the future matter now that I think that I love you
Laugh at my expense
It's so cute when you do it I never feel embarrassment
And yet something is wrong
Every day with you that passes seems to get longer and longer
For me nothing has changed
I'm the same guy you sat across from that you told about your dreams
I think
It hasn't been that long
So what happened
Why am I writing this song?
I won't be here forever though
I know you won't be too
But does the future matter no that I think that I love you
No I won't be here forever girl
There's things I need to do
But give me a reason and I shall cease my plans
I won't be here forever girl
I've accepted that it's true
And think that soon I'll have to accept letting go of you
It's a love I want to last
You know it's a love I want to last (x3)
But it's a love that can not last
It's a love that can not last
It's a love that can not laaaaaaaaast

The Music

I wanted you to notice me
You noticed how I act
It wasn't how I need to be and you remind me of that
That profile picture
It irks me every day
I've learned my lesson
Just can't figure out what to say
You are the music
But you are the music
I got to that old fork in the road
My anger lead me the wrong way
But you showed up at just the right time
And signaled me to the right lane
Then you put the brakes on
And let the others pass
How will the world remember their old friend Zach?
Cause you are the music
You are, you are, you are
Yeah you are the music
You are, you are, you are
You are, you are, you are
You are, you are, you are
You are, you are, you are
I have lost who we are
Didn't think it'd be this hard
You remind me how I feel
You're the reason this is real

A Home
06:45

I lost myself a few November's ago
A drifter who wanted to be unknown
Then I found a home at last
Turns out it wasn't what I thought it would be
There we were November's later
I had a fucked up state of mind
You opened up my eyes to love
But I was drifting once again, to the end
A time when my life when was in tatters
And then you told me yours was too
So what did I do?
Oh, there you go run away
Let yourself lead you astray (x2)
I ripped a j and turned the lights out
And put on MST3K
It haunted me, but I watched it on repeat
I guess I couldn't look away
And now I have a changed perspective
I took some time to admit
Then I found a home at last
Turns out it wasn't what I thought it would be
It isn't you, you aren't my lifeline
You aren't my golden ray of sun, but you sure showed me one
Oh, are you going to stay?
Don't let your hopes drift away (x2)

Goodbye
04:34
|

|
You know, I've noticed that the best conversations
Never seem to last long enough
You'll spend an hour pouring out your soul
Hoping later those foundations won't be ripped up
And you can learn so much from a set
Of numbers that tell you who you are
Three wing four level five
I guess that means I'm off to a pretty good start
I hope you understand that I have been changing
I hope to be the man that other people see
I often live in fear of not knowing the fear of
Losing others' hands, we'll see
Her pictures tell me that she's oh so happy
Then how come she is sleeping all the time
I wish that I could pass on all I've learned
But we learn best from the pain we find
Don't want to live in fear of not knowing the fear of
Losing others' hands so I open up the door
I hope you understand that I have been changing
I've altered my life plans, but who for?
I hope you understand I really have been changing
Don't want to be a man who's angry all the time
I'm tired and I'm bored of constantly rejecting
And losing others' hands
No I don't want to say goodbye
