I've got no foreheaded future
I've had no posters made
I've got a penchant for failure
I get the F+ grade
I've got no dreams of affluence
I've got no fortune and glory
I've got no instant fame
But I made enough to change my name
Stop the horse and deplane now
Your absolution turned somehow
I recommend the 12 year scotch
Don't forget to scream
Don't forget to scream
I got here sticking my thumb out
I'd been promoted to Junior grade
Not for all the drinkin and druggin
But from mistakes that I still crave
I strangled all of my dreams and I
I drowned my hope and faith
I woke up suffocated and
Demoted in every way
Stop the horse and deplane now
Your absolution turned somehow
I recommend the 12 year scotch
Don't forget to scream
Don't forget to scream

In 1975
03:01
|

I got a grip on my precious time
Then I felt much older
My brain is telling me to fall in line
Then my mouth gets bolder
Back in 1975 I breathed the airborne poison for the first time
And I know Yes I know that this is just another cycle
And I know this yes I know this
This reputation feels like a dream and it's scarred this life
The pointless dreams and the reckless schemes
The savior becomes paint on the wall and it's ruint this life
Disparity has been a friend to me
while everyone gets colder
with a lust for money of the type you see
In eyes that burn and smolder
Back in 1975 I felt the first of endless heartaches
And I know yes I know that this is just another cycle
And I know this yes I know this
This reputation feels like a dream and it's scarred this life
The pointless dreams and the reckless schemes
The savior becomes paint on the wall
And it's ruint this life

Thrill of It
03:28

Come close with your evil eye
It's all just so tame
like a lonely sigh
I never dreamed I'd be trapped like this
A prisoner of my own
soft luscious
bliss
I'm left here wanting you all through the night
So I'm just learning to spill
Filling the hallway with anger and spite
Somehow that's lost all it's thrill
Yeah and it's been some time since I heard
your voice
It;s not a mistake
But a conscious choice
Better you than me yeah yeah
To suffer loneliness
Cause right now my favorite mood is unconsciousness
I'm left her wanting you all through the night
So I'm just learning to spill
Filling the hallway with anger and spit
Somehow that's lost all it's thrill

Everything Moves
03:08

I swore I'd never bleed again
I swore this body'd get a rest
I'm sure I'll win this evening's lottery
Let's put that theory to the test now is that your best?!?
C'mon!
Everything moves
but me
This body's made the same mistake again
and I have followed without thought
It occurs to me,
This won't be such a godamn disaster
But that bullshit was all for naught
Because I got caught
C'mon!
Everything moves
but me
Once burning bright now calming down again
since I've collided with my brain
It says to me,
I thought we'd been through all this already,
But this shit just does not feel the same!
Do you have no shame?!?
C'mon!
Everything moves
but me

Nothing Special
04:32
|

I could've sworn we were children
I could've sworn we were happy before
we met
we didn't know what how to say what we were felling
nothing special,
you said
I guess I'll agree
I just want you to be happy again
And I don't know what to do
And I don't know what say
I just want you to be happy again
When we would talk on the phone on the street and at work and anywhere we met
We didn't know what to say to each other's faces
We're only human!
Can't we forgive our sins?
I guess not
I guess not
But I said
I just want you to be happy again
And I don't know what to do
And I don't know what to say
I just want you to be happy again
I just want you to be happy again
And I don't know what to do
And I don't know what to say
I just want you to be happy again
