've made the same mistakes that I made last year. Running around circles that I never clear. I know my routine I'll do it again "Complain complain complain" wooh!
Its such a sunny day dont wanna stay inside. Lets go out to eat I've got coupons and ride. Matt's jeep is sweaty lets take my car and drive away some where really far!
Sweaty T-shirts in the car. Greasy hair, total gnar!
Woah you've gotta take it easy, you've got to believe me I wont let you down.
Lets play our music way too loud and roll the windows all the way down. The other drivers can watch and stare. They can do whatever, we dont care.
Lets go grill, Lets go grill, lets go ride, get sunburnt go and hide. Lets tell the girls Shawn will be there. Lets tell the world we dont care.
Got no money girlfriend pays. Got no girlfriend mommy pays!
Lets not forget that we're friends. Yeah lets not forget we're friends. And if the world tries to put us down lets not forget we've eachother around.
I've made the same mistakes that I made last year. Complain complain complain.

Sometimes I wonder why people talk without thinking of what they're saying.
And it makes me kinda wonder what goes on in their little head. Exhaustion is a killer knocking on my door and I answer like a fool begging for more.
If I could sit on procrastination I would kiss my stress good bye. Taking shots of irresponsibility, everbody lies.
Disapointment came and smacked me in the face and later it asked if it could stay at my place.
I know this week will be hard, I've got work and class and its hard just to pass. I know this week will be hard, but the times that I see you are the best time spent. I miss you I wanna see you again.
I spend the winter complaining that Im freezing my heart off and later in the summer it gets too hot for me to start to talk.
Avoid conversation cause it makes me look bad cause I bit off more than I should have had.
Its really a marvel that im socially active at all.
When analyzing my past goals, I've always dropped the ball.
Butter Fingers they should call me because everything slips,
in between my fingers and I can't get a grip.
If I remember correctly I should probably shut my mouth
so I can close my eyes and take a look around.
Everybody struggles for a chance to get up and dance and everybody is looking for romance. I struggle for the chance to get up and dance. I struggle for the chance.

East On 40 West

Every friday night me and all my friends, sit around life and just pretend that we know what we, we are gonna do. Where we will go and we will stay. So don't take that away. Its all we have for today.
I joke around too much, I never love enough. Why can't I ever let it rest. I joke around too much, I take it way too far. I think Im going east on 40 west.
We joke we dance we play. We play our happy songs. It makes us feel like we're okay. We dont have much time for your angry words, your silly lies your silly thoughts. So dont spread more rumours today. Yeah dont believe what others say.
I know its easy to just lie on your back. Wait for the attack. I know its easy to just follow the crowd without making a sound. But if everybody plays the game and nobody plays it fair. Can you tell me why should i care?

Winter Days

Outside your door theres a world with people awaiting you. Open arms pointed guns. Smiles that are real and not. Theres a train at a station awaiting your arrival. Theres rain that wont fall, not for today just for a little while.
Where do you wanna go? Where do you wanna be? And why cant you stay here with me? Why do you have to go? There are leaves falling slowly, they make a path brown and golden. Heres a photograph I will take, to forever remember this place.
The air is cold. The sun is bright. Our names carried away in this above average winter day.
Yes its there but you look too deep. Step back and look at the master piece, it seems just perfect to me. Its around the edges, its a work in progress. Its nostalgia at its best.
The air is warm. The stars are bright. Our names they take their flight in this above average summer night.

I can never find sleep and its not finding me. I've even given up on apathy. Im done with your complaining your boring used up angst. Im burnt out and I think I need some rest.
Theres so much drama going on. Stupid childish fights. Im drowining in incompentence. Im drowinging in incompetence. Im choking on ignorance. Dreaming of broken glass. I can't wait till I close my eyes to sleep.
Your points of view confuse me, your reasoning beats me. Is there nothing else you'd like to say? Could we change the subject I appricieate your time. Your arrogance truly blows my mind.

Im sorry about not being around I guess I thought I had a better place to go, a better place to be.
Im sorry about not calling you back I guess I thought that maybe I had a life, when I know that I dont. When I know that I dont.
I apologize sincerely and honestly, pinky promise this time its really me, really me. This time I speak on behalf of myself, you see I try, I try and I lie. Im just a waste of your time.
You never kept your promises you never did what you said you would dooooooo. You never kept your promises you never did what you said you would do, you're just soggy cereal asshole, and you know its true.
Everybody is getting all worked up again always complining they never get any rest, well Im tired too. My friends are going out again guess they forgot me, poor old me, oh boo hoo me.
I know that I dont I know that I dont I know that I dont I know that I dont I know that I dont I know that I dont I know that I dont I know that I dont I know that I dont I know that I dont I know that I dont I know that I dont

Before I Take This Walk

I cant say that Im lonely at least not at this time.
Theres someone right in front of who won't look me in the eyes. And its colder out now, a good excuse not to talk. I should tie my scarf tighter before i take this walk.
Theres a bad vibe going 'round, much like an ink stain.
My friends storm at each other pointing all the blame.
Its so selfish to frown when around you there are smiles. An ego-centrict cynnist, an infant in denial.
And if we wait nothing will ever change, it always stays the same.
Rumours are wild fires expectations are your walls.
Humanity was gone as we hit the fall. You never had to lie, its not hard to understand.
I didnt want much more than to make another friend.
Like a mother tells her child "Winter follows Fall" a doctor tells his patient he won't smoke for very long.
A liar does his job and says "This is the last time" but the sun comes up everyday and the moon does every night.

I can't wait any longer, i think I wanna go home because everybodys complaining and its taking way too long. And im wondering will this last all night
Because if you could see me now you could see that im laughing, see that im smiling, crying, singing, dancing. Out of control.
So dont hesitate (Wait!) go to the people you love, go to the people that make you feel alright and if its not what you got, you can come with me.
Because if you'd be interested I'd show you on a map all the places I wanna go so that I could come back and be with you.
So dont wait too long to sing along and you will be just fine.
because, the last time that I saw you, you were looking a bit bummed and I wanted to make you happy I wanted to make you have fun but I didnt know how, I still dont know now, I dont know how to make you smile
but I got a few things that im gonna try, I got a few tricks up my sleeve to get by. Hows about a song, yeah, hows about some flower, hows about we put away those high land showers
but dont give in, dont let go, theres plenty of good reasons to get up again after you fall. Dont sing a sad song, i wanna tell you that I know the good guys will win after all.
Im trying to let you know that Im gonna stick around, and playing my old guitar is the only way that I know how, so I'll sing it loud.
Si je le chante en Francais, o forse en Italiano. Ich kann eins Deustch vershugen, y tambien Catellano. 1-2 1-2 Cheers Ups!!!
