Regret 02:13
Everyone says I should write what I know But all I know is that I never want to grow old I am young, I am strong I’ll find a balance in between And see beauty in everything Everything is telling me that I should go Back to doing what I do best Regret everything, drink away the rest Everything is telling me that I should go Back to doing what I do best Regret everything, separate the rest I woke up in a Tucson apartment still drunk on wine And I thought there was nothing wrong with my life But I just watched her die Everything is telling me that I should go Back to doing what I do best Regret everything, drink away the rest Everything is telling me that I should go Back to doing what I do best Regret everything, separate the rest

Beach Time 02:51
I know I’m not listening when you’re talking I’m too busy running to the beach community Where everyone’s got more money that I can’t see I can go all night so give me a call if you want To see the moonlight turn into a sunrise We can talk about your past you can’t outlive or outlast I know I’ve got one too I know that we will never last so let’s stay together Let’s stay together I know that we will never last so let’s stay together Let’s stay together for a while You’ll have the best life You’ll be the best wife I know I’m not listening when you're talking I’m too busy running from Paul I find you passed out, soaking wet, made a call I don’t know who you’re talking to So pass the line you’re freaking out in the sand And all the people with their money can see I know that we will never last So let’s stay together I know that we will never last So let’s stay, let’s stay together I know that we will never last so let’s stay together Let’s stay together I know that we will never last so let’s stay together Let’s stay together for a while

Bed 01:13
I had a dream last night She was pregnant, she was my wife I can’t get it out of my head I’ll be a good dad after I go to bed I’ll be a good dad after I go to bed I had a dream last night You were laughing, you were alive I can’t get it out of my head I’ll be a good friend after I go to bed I’ll be a good friend after I go to bed

Drunk 02:21
I was 21, I was emo punk. I was so young, I was so drunk I was falling in love with someone new I think they were falling in love with me too I was 25, I was ready to die I put the hose through my window Before I parked my car overlooking a bridge in NYC I wanted to see something so pretty before I died Before I died Before I died Before I died Before I died I was 28, don’t know what I’m doing as of late I think I might try, try again, again I was 21, I was emo punk I was so young, I was so drunk I’m still 21, I’m still emo punk I’m still so young. I’m still so drunk
5.
Coked Out 02:09
I can’t forget about getting so drunk and wanting to hang out But I left in middle of the night, steal a drink then beer then drive I can’t forget about getting so high and wanting to lay down In the snow without a sweater or a coat wishing I wasn’t so alone I can’t forget about getting so coked out and wanting to make out But I had to leave Cause everything on your TV screen was getting me angry Why does everything get me so goddamn mad Why can’t I just peel it back and embrace facts Cause I’m still angry
6.
Lying 02:36
I’m washed out Waking up in cold sweats I’m looking all around I think I’m the last one left But it’s 3AM and I’m still breathing I stole the car keys, searching for something This world is on vibration And I can barely see My hands won’t stop the shaking Is this really me It’s 3AM and I’m still breathing I stole the car keys, searching for something And all my friends think that I quit using But I just got better at lying
7.
Broad Street 03:06
We spent the night the same way we always did Getting drunk and stumbling Watching cabs ask if we need a ride But now we’re walking back down to Broad Street Where we can find anything Back in your bedroom I feel my head start spinning And all I want is to lay down The silence is what I need right now But we’re walking back down to Broad Street Where we can find anything But that was 5 years ago and now I’m looking through old photos Oh my god, we lost so much weight Did we get better? Or did we stay the same
8.
Seeds 02:09
Do you wanna hang out I know my town Is too far to drive But I need you tonight We’ve been settling seeds in And watching them grow Into something we believe in Tall trees we call home Do you wanna hang out I don’t mind coming down The city’s so far from me but I don’t care I really need you near We’ve been settling seeds in And watching them grow Into something we believe in Tall trees we call home

No Escape 02:57
I can’t remember last time I did not want to die I can’t remember the first time I actually felt alive Oh, I’m tired of waking up sad There’s nothing cool about it I am trapped I can’t remember the last time I was an actual friend I can’t remember the first time I did not feel like a has-been Oh, I’m tired of waking up sad There’s nothing cool about it I am trapped in bed I can’t remember the last time I accomplished anything worthwhile I can’t remember the first time I woke up with a smile Oh, I’m tired of waking up sad There’s nothing cool about it I am trapped in bed I am trapped in my head
10.
Drive Thru 02:58
I’m driving through Utah I’m fighting the urge to call But my phone’s been dead And I don’t know when it’ll get charged up I know, I know, I shouldn’t be staring at my phone screen Hoping, hoping that you’ll talk to me Cause everything we had was perfectly temporary Can’t say I’m mad Cause we had the chance to forget all the bullshit We found ourselves swimming in I’m driving through Utah I’m fighting the urge to call I know, I know, it’s probably all in my head I’m hoping, hoping that I’ll just get over it Cause everything we had was perfectly temporary Can’t say I’m mad Cause we had the chance to forget all the bullshit We found ourselves swimming in
11.
Cardigan 04:02
I’m thinking about all my old friends And the way they’d wait for me outside of Whittson’s Talking about the show, and all the bands that we know But it’s never been clear to me It’s never been clear It’s never been clear to me It’s never been clear I’ll listen to The Smiths And think about all the times we crossed the Brooklyn Bridge And wondered if there was more to life If there was more to life than this But it’s never been clear to me It’s never been clear It’s never been clear to me It’s never been clear It’s never been clear to me It’s never been clear It’s never been clear to me It’s never been clear
12.
Cool Bands 02:04
All of my friends are in cool bands And maybe I just wanna be like them, be like them All of my friends doing cool things And maybe f I tried I could do them too, do them too All of my friends are living in cool cities And god damn I’m stuck at home, stuck at home Graduating class 2007 all getting married And having children, children Maybe if I tried I could be like them Maybe if I wrote a song that’s popular like my friends do I could make a decent living, I could make a decent living Or at least be better to the people I’m living with But I would need some help from a better snare Or anything for that, anything for that matter All of my friends are in cool bands And I can’t wait to see them, to see them All of my friends say I’m doing cool things But they don’t know that I just wanna be like them I just wanna be like them
