about

maybe the bears will do better next year ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

lyrics

PART ONE:
Put the bottle down, I think you’ve had enough
and the cold has started to sink into your lips
Tomorrow’s looking like we’ll have some warmer weather
so we can reconvene this meeting at sunset
We’ll talk drunken politics between breaths of Pall Mall cigarettes or how the Bears went 3-13
Or how it’s nice to just have company…

Nothing is perfect/ and that’s just scratching the surface/ of a deeper wound that’s closed up and scabbed away
Milo went to college/ yeah well maybe I shouldn’t have
Because the biggest debts I still have to pay

So I cursed the Earth and tried almost every thing but I still feel the same
And you, you can’t move on/ afraid of feeling sane/ even just for mo-ment

Bracing for impact/ the passengers panic/ and this old thing won’t ever run the same
Screaming in short bursts/ over major chords/ was once cathartic but now it’s overplayed

So I cursed the Earth and tried almost every thing but I still feel the same
And you, you can’t move on/ afraid of feeling sane/ even just for moment
And now/ everyon’e gone/ the silence is deafening and I know that makes no sense
So maybe we just try and start againnnnnn

PART TWO:
The day’s lasting longer/ and the heat will hit harder than it ever has
So let’s drink another/ and puke it up on the Metra tracks
I’m walking the long way/ no busses or subways/ just you and me
But will we feel better/ after our stomach’s have settled/ of everything?

And we can play all the right chords
Make sure we sing all the right words
Before we give up and go home
It’s far too late for that now
X2
I’m missing the last train out of this tooooooowwwwwnnn
(AND I DON’T WANT TO STAY HERE AGAIN!)

PART THREE:
I don’t mean to be angry/ but it’s just so degrading
when everything I strive for is out of reaCH^ and I can’t decide if I’m too short or too lazy
So I can keep on singing in tongue-in-cheek
or go earn enough to survive the weeks aheeeeeaaaaad

(EVERYONE NOW)
BUT ALL I WISH FOR FALLS AMISS
I’M LIVING DEAD CHOKING ON FLESH
All is lost before it’s forgotten/ and this apocalypse hasn’t even started yet
X2

WOAH OH OH WOAH OH OH WOAH OH OHHH OH OH OH x4
