1.
we make our mark we break our heart I ask what for
2.
nothing going on except in my head so I went out to wake the dead got a cup for the cold hot brown brew to break the mold got the music, the winter mood on a quest to dissolve the glue what am I waiting for? what am I hurting for? all those times are here no more gone out through an automatic door
3.
and I feel like fucking shit what did I have to do that was more important than you why couldn't I invite you in for a cold drink and a place to sit? come on in, have a seat, my friend and escape the thick red lower Westchester sunset
4.
you'll put in a call, it's inevitable I'll go off the wall why did I even get into this at all just forget my name it'll be easier that way because I don't understand fucking beat it, scram you don't understand, and you never will and I can't sit still through this
5.
I tossed a ball it made me think of everyone in school all the sports I ever played just seemed like big excuses to hurt all they ever asked was "when do we get to play with pads" a bunch of water balloons ready to burst quite a life I lead quite a world we live in security guard told me to stop I contemplated rebellion briefly then ended up just leaving thought of everyone in school fighting over lines drawn in the sand I went home, sat down, and hoped to never stand again
6.
Suture Self 02:04
driving north but not to stay pseudo-summer day got my tunes and an excuse got very little to lose gets me right here as near as I can say times I thought would stay now I'm on 95 passing trucks on the right I'm a badass in the growing night I'll drive till home is out of sight gets me right here but then it's hard to say the ache, it melts away converging outward while I stay
7.
I didn't even know you, so how can I miss you? And yet I find that I do, something's turning me blue The saying rings more true when you say it like I do: You can't go home again if there was never a home to go to Something's bothering me There's a numbness where my heart should be Faces blurring before they ever became clear Persons going missing before they ever became dear
8.
you'll never know what the fuck you're talking about you'll never grow up, you'll never move out because of you, I'm in hyperbolic doubt I'm sorry don't think that I don't care it's not my fault, I swear I had no choice I'd have spoken, had I had a voice to use now I'm leaving town you'll notice I haven't left my number around I've gone in with a scalpel and left without a sound all witnesses have been gagged and bound
9.
I'm screaming "sit beside me!" but you always walk right by me I'm crumbling and sighing I'm bleeding and dividing I'm 4000 and climbing
10.
I'd sit on the floor before I sat next to you (and it's a nice couch, too) is any of this getting through (or are you playing it cool?) is it the screws in my head (did you hear what I said?) by all rights, things should be set (but things are never like that) sit back, have a heart attack
