Setting Off 02:31
I never knew who I was until I found my love for you And now I know that you're here to stay I hope and pray what you say is true I owe it all to you now that we are setting off My loves grown overtime now that were doing fine I owe it all to you now that we are setting off

If I could just find the words god you know I'd try I could just tell you how I feel nah I think I'd rather die If I could just remember what I rehearsed in my head last night I'ts safe to say that in a world of hate you make me feel so right I cant seem to get off this high Instead of talking I just sit and sigh I feel like some lost wannabe sleepless nights thinking of you and me sleepless nights thinking of you and me sleepless nights thinking of you and me You make me wanna vomit left and right all day nonstop If I could just hold your hand I'd watch all of my worries drop If I could find the courage buried deep inside of me then I could just solve the puzzle of getting you to like me I cant seem to get off this high Instead of talking I just sit and sigh I feel like some lost wannabe sleepless nights thinking of you and me sleepless nights thinking of you and me sleepless nights thinking of you and me I'll just try to move on (try to forget) I'll just try to forget (moving on)

Let's buy a house like all the others The best that we've ever had With a plastic job and a concrete marriage Just like mom and dad Day in day out the same old shit This is is the life we were born for it Moms a cheater and dads a dick We're one big happy family Carbon copies just like the rest A blank slate with a name tag on my chest Welcome to insert name here USA there really ain't that much more to say I'm John Doe and she's Jane A picturesque existence to hide the pain Let's just go let's get out of here We're never gonna fit into this mold Mom and dad die and clones move in The house will always be sold Welcome to insert name here USA there really ain't that much more to say I'm John Doe and she's Jane A picturesque existence to hide the pain Welcome to internment camp USA there really ain't that much more to say We're all John We're all Jane A picturesque existence to hide the pain Place Your Bids!

Time to write another hit piece About a band that you don't like Make sure not to do your research And wait until the timings right Start a band 30 Years! Go on tour 30 Years! Say some shit 30 Years! Get accused Dead career We're not trying to blame the victim There's fucking dickheads in every scene Innocent till proven guilty is practically a cis white meme Start a band 30 Years! Go on tour 30 Years! Say some shit 30 Years! Get accused Dead career

The Deep End 03:47
This boy driving in his car so far away growing cold to the place he once called home nowhere to stay He cant stop, he will go as long as the windows are down I know he won't be going slow until he sees the ocean And he will drive into the water He will find a new place to call home he won't forget to wear his seatbelt And he will drive into the water He will find a new place to call home he won't forget to wear his seatbelt

Jessica 01:47
There was this girl I gave the world to And then she left and went away (there was this girl) It breaks my heart that we're apart I'm really pissed that she left today Ever since you've been gone And ever since you left that day I've learned to hate you more and more (since you went away) You took my heart an stomped it out You really hurt me to the core Ever since you've been gone Everything has felt so wrong

Vanwyck 01:45
They say that lightning doesn't strike in the same place it did before That's rather inconvenient when you are trying to get struck The day you left was just like the sun setting You're so far away, and my vision is blurry, and reddening And I cannot think for myself And it definitely does not help I went back to the place where I lost you I'm sorry This song isn't four years in length
8.
Head Talk 02:01
I hear these voices all of these voices Going round in my head not sure what they said And I can't seem to get you out of my mind Where are you going and what do you say Haven't seen you for a year haven't seen you for a day I don't know how much more I can take of this Head talk (you know that you're killing me) Head talk (you know that you're killing me) Head talk (you know that you're killing me) Head talk I look up and what do I see I'm staring at the clouds they're staring back at me And your words and your thoughts I can't escape them cause they're up in my Head talk (you know that you're killing me) Head talk (you know that you're killing me) Head talk (you know that you're killing me) Head talk
9.
Let's talk about drugs Let's talk about recreational use Of marijuana, pills, and speed To put your mind at ease (we love marijuana, pills, and speed) Let's talk about alcohol And I'll tell you that it wasn't my fault I didn't mean to say that to you I'm sorry that I'm always this fucked up (I called you a bitch) What I'm trying to say (But you're not) Is that I hope that you're ok (Now i'm mad) I didn't mean to do this to you (That I did this to you) Hey, you could just move away (I'm better off all alone) Take your things and go to someone more deserving (cause I'm non deserving) Of your precious Time I'm wasting Getting wasted Losing Patience and... Fucking up your life
10.
This is the part of the song where I slow things down could be portrayed as a metaphor for how sporadic my mind can be Oh wait that doesn't make sense Because I'm telling it to you straight (spoken word)
11.
I just think it's best Cause you can't miss what you forget

That little shit Timmy Down the street He's one SOB you don't wanna meet He hates everyone Always on the attack Beats birds in his yard with a baseball bat Timmy I'm sure your dad will be back It's been 6 years cut him some slack You're problems are everyone's but your own Get ready for life you'll die alone That little shit Timmy Up the street He's one asshole you don't wanna meet He's got no job Always shootin up smack Ties neighborhood kids to the railroad tracks Timmy I'm sure your dad will be back It's been 6 years cut him some slack You're problems are everyone's but your own Get ready for life you'll die alone On your own! Timmy I'm sure your dad will be back It's been 6 years cut him some slack You're problems are everyone's but your own Get ready for life you'll die alone

I probably should've been more careful I probably should've checked where my head was at Another show on a Tuesday night I get the feeling something's not gonna turn out right You said you would be there on time But I don't care it doesn't matter anyway I don't need any metaphors to tell you that you're making my life worse But when it starts to really hurt I feel like I'm about to break Heads break glass! Disperse the reminiscence Just step back! Let's think about this Remember when you got in that car accident I drove to your house and I thought that you were dead Or dying or so much Then I opened your door And my life flashed before my eyes You were alive I crashed (you left me) For dead (you we're alive) Sharp glass (pulled out from) Our hands (I'm still alive) And I'll get out this time I can't believe that shit just happened You built me up, you let me down, It's about time, I'm getting out We shattered the window, and now we have to drive home
