it's hard to go after silence when you're a siren and it's so easy to be complacent when I'm not even sure of where my place is I spend most of my time in whoever's fucking basement can handle a vagrant no need to have some asshole try to find my brain I know I've been diagnosed as a waste and it's the worst case this feels like a bad habit I should get over it, doesn't it even though i play it safe all the time nothing works out right life's a joke, I'm the brunt of it I spend most of my time in whoever's fucking basement can handle a vagrant no need to have some asshole try to find my brain I know I've been diagnosed as a waste and it's the worst case the way we're killing ourselves you'd think that we'd be sick of hell it's been so hard not to feel credible from the start hard to forget all the things that made us all who we are I spend most of my time in whoever's fucking basement can handle a vagrant I spend so much of my life thinking everything will be alright just to find out I've been wrong this whole time it's hard

Stupid 03:32
I am a firework stay away and you won't get hurt I've blown so many holes in these morals you can't see my character so just call me stupid and mean it call me idiot because I'll believe it all these tools in your chest seem okay but it ain't western medicine and I can't erase where is the bailout now for a miserable waste and I can't explain why I've been dragging you down the best I know how I see you shouting for help again but your throat just won't open it seems simple but it hurts and you know it's harder work than believing me over and over again call me stupid and mean it call me idiot because I'll believe it all these pills in your hand seem okay if they take me to hell again and I can't erase where is the bailout now for a miserable waste and I can't explain why I've been dragging you down the best I know how it's been thirty-five years I've got a chin to match my pointy ears a curve in my spine that leaves me everyday less-inclined to pick myself up off the ground I've so politely dragged you down to when your grandfather died I didn't feel anything except the inconvenience of losing one night of drinking and that'd be the perfect metaphor if it wasn't the truth so if you're getting bored, call me stupid between my ears there's a silence I can't let give me a big head

Moving On Up 03:24
when you lose your best friend there's no solution that starts with staring at the ceiling but for me it's worth every second spent in memory So I may need a little time alone spent the last night moving these things are not my own but that's my letter to follow I just know I can't take this shit home maybe this time I'll sit back and watch you bleeding and maybe next time I'll react and you'll be fine got me terrified to bits my life is worth less than shit but that's my pill to swallow just not sure if I can handle it maybe this time I'll sit back and watch you bleeding and maybe next time I'll react and you'll be fine these hard days are always we make a bit of progress then we give it away this heartache is a mainstay we have all these problems but we're too dumb to say these hard days are always
