Half Assed 03:42
What did they say about “finding direction”? Something about taming my imperfections? I can’t stand to be the epitome of underachieving and overreacting Remember when it was so satisfying, To run through the fall leaves on a Saturday night? Now you’ve got obligations to change into the person you’ve always hated How many more beers until I see this light? If you’re talking about guidance I don’t need this tonight ‘Cause I’d rather leave this fucking city across the great plains of my indifference The lake shines a cold blue at me tonight and I’m only here because nothing feels right We just keep on talking but the story’s the same keep on doing something just to get me through the day Get me through the day x3 All these half-assed answers to the questions I have And all these half ideas running through my head There’s no motivation/ for keeping it up Great expectations/ but the attempt is dull Why even bother/ spelling this out Nothing’s forever/ NOTHING’S 4EVR Nothing’s forever x2 or x4 idk

I’m hoping that this day is done as soon as it can be ‘cause I’ve been drinking Irish coffee since the sun came in on me Losing all my marbles to maintain normality But isn’t really even worth it to keep blaming shit on me Well… I don’t know/ I don’t know just leave me alone X2 Yeah I’m going somewhere to find my mind and I won’t see you at alllllll What will I do with all that time I DON’T KNOW (YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH) Stay drunk, smoke up cuz we all die and that’s the way it fucking goes I try to be sincere enough I wanna just keep putting up I wanna have a life that is mine so JUST LEAVE ME ALONE

The black cat’s a little late I guess my bad luck’s already begun (oh oh oh woah oh oh oh) Walk under a ladder, smash a mirror, nothing matters anywayyyyyyyyyyyy I hope this all works out because my option’s almost up (oh oh oh woah oh oh oh) So I invoke the sacred the rite in hopes that I can make it to work on tiiime I’ve lost all my hope/ I’ve given up on trying So sick of this curse/ defeat on the horizon Been plagued been diseased/ and left out for dead The sign of the black mark/ encompassing dread! So all we have/ are sad songs Because there’s no victories/ yeah there ain’t no victories All we have/ are sad songs So raise a glass and give three cheers to misery! Send the locusts, bring the rains, and take all you have given away (oh oh oh woah oh oh oh) I’m only happy during a torrential fucking downpourrrrrrr I hope this all works out because my option’s almost up (oh oh oh woah oh oh oh) So I scream to the abyss for some forgiveness, but it just stares back at meeeeee I’ve lost all my hope/ I’ve given up on trying So sick of this curse/ defeat on the horizon Been plagued been diseased/ and left out for dead The sign of the black mark/ encompassing dread! So all we have/ are sad songs Because there’s no victories/ yeah there ain’t no victories All we have/ are sad songs So raise a glass and give three cheers to misery!

Yeah I don’t wanna fake this/ but I don’t know what to do So I’ll apologize for every time I’m lost The winter brings some heavy snow/ and a sobering but pleasant cold So I think I’ll drink out on your porch tonight I don’t wanna be here/ yeah I don’t wanna be here I don’t wanna be here anymooooorrreee And even if we tried to go/ the traffic’s moving way too slow And a quarter tank of gas won’t go too faaaaaar What’s the point of waiting/ for things to change around me since everyone is passed out on the ground It’s nice to hear the sentiment/ but I know that you’re all full of shit So let’s change the subject before lose my head I don’t wanna be here/ yeah I don’t wanna be here I don’t wanna be here anymooooorrreee And even if I tried to go/ the traffic’s moving way too slow And a quarter tank of gas won’t go too faaaaaar Exhaustion/ closes my eyes After hours/ of rotting out my mind But I can’t seem to get to sleeeeeeeeeeeeeppppppppp I don’t wanna be here/ yeah I don’t wanna be here I don’t wanna be here anymooooorrreee And even if I tried to go/ the traffic’s moving way too slow And a quarter tank of gas won’t go too faaaaaar

Another night, can’t sleep again because I can’t seem to shake these awful thoughts About you and him and me and you and how everything just seems like it’s all gone Plagued by these coughs and little doubts, the only we have is just shit luck I try to wish for wishful thinking but all this drinking’s got me losing in the long run woah oh We’ll try our best to keep clear heads but distress is all we knowwwwww S.O.S! please save our souls, before the tide comes rushing in Take everything as a joke, the defeatist’s sleight of hand We can sing these songs and dance along until our lungs have all but given up So we’ll keep on screaming forever mooooooorrrre We’ll try our best to keep clear heads but distress is all we knowwwwww Yeah I I I III/ wanna make it out ali i i iiive After all the drugs we’ve tried, and drinking all the time, hope we make it out alright X2 Anxiety takes away from me/ and I’m not the same as I used to be Spend endless nights with endless worry/ about the things I’ll never change Yeah I I I III/ wanna make it out ali i i iiive After all the drugs we’ve tried, and drinking all the time, hope we make it out alright X2

Not a day goes by where I’m not regretting all the mistakes I think I’ve ever maaaade Stories told at every drunken night But the theme remains to stay the same I’ve spent/ so many restless nights/ thinking about how ow ow ow ow ow ow ow I’m Gonna climb out/ of this hole I’ve dug myself/ is it even worth to try? This basement/ it’s grown three stories high! Can’t escape all this dissatisfaction because I’m afraid of feeling fi i ine But I guess it’s just another vice Just not the one that gets me high I’ve spent/ so many restless nights/ thinking about how ow ow ow ow ow ow ow I’m Gonna climb out/ of this hole I’ve dug myself/ is it even worth to try? The event horizon/ inescapable as time/ on the black hole of my miiiind! I’ve spent/ so many restless nights/ thinking about how ow ow ow ow ow ow ow I’m Gonna climb out/ of this hole I’ve dug myself/ is it even worth to try? I apologize/ I know I messed it up this time/ but I hope it’s not goodbyyyye! I’ve spent/ so many restless nights/ thinking about how ow ow ow ow ow ow ow I’m Gonna climb out/ of this hole I’ve dug myself/ is it even worth to try?

Think I may have been possessed by demons I was just dropped on my head as a kid. Even psychopaths have emotions, then again maybe not. If the blue meanies are gonna get me, they better do something. Total paranoia is just total awareness. They can never run away without falling down And they can never ever leave without making any kind of sound And they never ever check to see if anyone's around And I don't like it/ Just give me a challenge! Sometimes clowns can get away with murder This world is nothing but evil, my own evil happened to come out. They can never run away without falling down And they can never ever leave without making any kind of sound And they never ever check to see if anyone's around And I don't like it/ Just give me a challenge!

Another time to pull over to the shoulder Check engine light is engraved into my eyes Am I out of gas or am I just being dramatic One more mile? Fuck it. We should try And I don’t know if I can take this/ ‘cuz it’s really got me down And you know that maybe it’s overrated/ another song without a sound So please remind me of who I am, before I check out Not again, this fucking ship is sinking Bail out the water before we die I’m not surprised that sharks are already circling To feast upon another tattered life And I don’t know if I can take this/ ‘cuz it’s really got me down And you know that maybe it’s overrated/ another song without a sound So please remind me of who I am, before I check out We’re breaking down (we’re breaking down)x6

Ignoring phone calls at the station/ waiting for some train to take me 10 stops too far I JUST WANNA SULK AND SCREAM OUT AT THE BACKGROUND! Because I’m so sick of “Hey, what’s going on?” I hope we’re all ok, yeah we’re all ok, so just stay and wait for nowwww And if you won’t, I will try to understand All I can try to do is focus/ my vision’s shot and these drinks just won’t stay down I WANT TO SAY THIS TO BEST OF MY ABILITIES: “Are you ok? Hey, what’s going on?” I hope we’re all ok, yeah we’ll be ok, so just stay and wait for nowwww X2 And if you won’t, I will try to understand

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
