Just Me 03:35
Just me or two of me And a wire running through my cheeks I could have a lot of fun in a mirror Change one of my names and disappear You would never see it coming A nail while you were running It can be hard to hit on the head Could you live inside a daydream And find another meaning Behind all those fuckin’ words you read Just me or two of me Giving manicures to my feet Find the time to meet the guy from the TV But also chip away my popcorn ceilings I could snack on the remainder Find love inside a K-Mart Just remember I was always a leader You would never see it coming A deer that you weren’t hunting Just cause blood was always bringing you tears But nothing’s gonna change much No nothing’s gonna change much Nothing’s gonna change, no So just me or two of me Just me or two of me Just me or two of me It’s just me

Button Up 03:19
I don’t know why I can’t think about her anymore She’s my head, I gave it a while I can’t believe I never even asked her What’s the chance you’d be free to give it a try? Oh did you know my name? Oh did you go outside that day? Did you really think I’d be around for your funeral? I’ve been dead since the day that we met Would you, could you, did you, have you ever Thought about becoming a star so I could read about it? I know you have Oh did you know my name? Oh did you go outside that day? Should I button up? Should I button up? Should I button up? Should I button up? Oh did you know my name? Oh did you go outside that day? Should I button up? Should I button up? Should I button up? Should I button up?

Now’s the time to tell them what you know It won’t be long before you let em go But no one’s got a chain wrapped around their neck But no one’s got a chain wrapped around their neck Now’s the time to find a time for you And would you like to have this dance for two? But I don’t want to see what you look like now But I don’t want to see what you look like now But I’m a liar I’m a liar I’m a liar Gettin’ tired of a life I found online I know you’re tryin’ If you got me, I’ve got time No one’s gonna let me go I have a feeling that you won’t be gone so long Now’s the time to find a rhyme or two But no one’s gonna give a shit but you I’ve got a nail stuck inside my head I’ve got a nail stuck inside my head But I’m a fighter I’m a fighter I’m a fighter I’m a fighter Gettin’ tired of a life I found online I know you’re tryin’ If you got me, I’ve got time No one’s gonna let me go I have a feeling that you won’t be gone so long

What’s up now? Did you die? I know that you said you would It just takes time So don’t lie down And call your mom cause it don’t feel good And she’ll treat you right She’ll buy another plane ticket home for you Yeah she’ll treat you right But you’ll have to figure out your own way soon Oh it’s raining in my head Oh it’s raining in my head So lay me down Put me to rest I’ll be around Once I get out of bed What’s up now In a one horse town? You let it out it’ll run away Don’t want it back You’re not the kind of guy You always knew you’d be ok Always know you’re right You’d fight a fist with a verbal parasite Always win the fight And wish that you had a different kind of life Oh it’s raining in my head Oh it’s raining in my head So lay me down Put me to rest I’ll be around Once I get out of bed

Have a night at home, keep your front door closed All the men outside can sleep in zebra coats The note strikes a chord and it’s such a drag Oh what a night They sent a young man to fight the old man’s fight But can I get another dance? Fight your fist with my own goodbye Give another call to your own home phone Tell yourself you always have set the tone You once heard a man say that he was dead Oh is that right? We’ve been living just to find a way to die But can I get another dance? Fight your fist with my own goodbye Well he’s all bad I heard But he’s alright to you But can you scream at night and claim it as your tune? Can you shoot another man and hope he pulls through? Can you shoot another man and hope he pulls through? Can you shoot another man and hope he pulls through?

Too Long 03:23
I stole all your pets But now they’re making me sick How am I supposed to catch your eye? You bought a knife You strapped it to your thighs Then you asked me if I wanted to die I think that that would be alright I think that that would be just fine Do you want to follow me home in the winter? I can find a way for you there by December And I know what it’s like to be her for a while Too long Too long Too long Too long Did you know that I wear a different hat Everyday just to test your eye So I bought a knife I strapped it to my thigh You said “Wow, that looks a lot like mine.” Well I think we’re gonna be alright I think we’re gonna be just fine Do you want to follow me home in the winter? I can find a way for you there by December And I know what it’s like to be her for a while Too long Too long Too long Too long Well I think we’re gonna be alright I think we’re gonna be just fine

Living inside an old folks home I gotta couple years to die for Living inside a pile of bones I know you’ve heard it all before I don’t wanna be that bad to me I don’t wanna be that bad to me I got enough lives inside a phone I don’t know how to wake up Ive never felt love while home alone Do you know how much space that takes up? I don’t wanna be that bad to me I don’t wanna be that bad to me Looking for a change In a suit on a Saturday Living in a drone Finding love I could call my own I found something new to you I don’t wanna be that bad to me I don’t wanna be that bad to me I don’t wanna be that bad to me I don’t wanna be that bad to me

Say It Loud 02:42
I know you’ve got a lot to think about You’ve been hurtin’ You’ve been hurtin’ No one ever wanted it that way Ive got a new direction A new kind of missed connection There’s no time to have it any different way You said “Do you know what you’re talking about? I can’t be sure but if you say it loud I bet I’ll get the picture Of a new exciting scripture.” I can’t help but think of the time you told me To lay off the drinks cause it made me feel lonely with you I know you’ve got a lot to think about A new city Somewhere pretty It can’t be much better somewhere else But spiral into a coma If it helps you find a moment Time to find something better for yourself Do I know what I’m talking about? Don’t have a clue but if I say it loud Im sure I’ll feel the rising Of something more exciting I can’t help but thing of something Whether it’s living good or dying better with you
9.
Nobody 03:41
I’ve got a way now To find another mess and leave you all behind I’ve got a way now Cause Nashville could be close but I don’t think you would mind It’s just a phone call that you said was shit But I don’t think we should be so sad about it And I don’t drink now Because I drink too much, forget how to use my mouth And I don’t drink now Because I’m getting dumb It’s just a little time spent in the hall Both my arms pressed up against either wall Thinking “Do I stay?” Nobody’s got time for nobody Nobody’s got time for nobody Nobody’s got time for nobody Nobody’s got time for nobody Who’s gone away I’ve got a friend now Who doesn’t think I’m cute but I think we’ll be fine I’ve got a friend now I don’t yet know they’re name but I know that they don’t smile Could it be someone who sits and thinks? Now I’m stuck in a chair cause that sounded neat to me So what are you thin’ bout anyway? So what are you thin’ bout anyway? So what are you thin’ bout anyway? So what are you thin’ bout anyway? Nobody’s got time for nobody Nobody’s got time for nobody Nobody’s got time for nobody Nobody’s got time for nobody Who’s gone away

Sunrise 04:15
I saw a sunrise in a basement And how’d you know I’d be here too? To start a day inside my eyelids When I went outside so did you Now you got another couple hundred Wrapped inside a paper bag Could you find a way to drink the morning? Or the best coffee you’ve ever had? Now you’re tattooed red from all your fallen Tripping over all your used You said you like to break it when you find it You don’t want nothing to look brand new Well I’ve got something you might like then Well I’ve got something you might like then But then again you might hate it, too I saw a sunrise in a basement And I tried to love it like a friend But can you love it from a distance? Can you love it if it ends? You saw a window in a basement Said why’d you gotta play like that? Cause after all you’re in a basement And after all you’re fine with that Well I’ve got something you might like then Well I’ve got something you might like then But then again you might hate it, too
