Sellout
I wasn't born into royalty
But I can try to buy in
I live in the land of opportunity
And stealing, cheating, and lying
And I need you to want me
I lost my attitude
I got a tattoo
I show some tit,
and let you pinch my ass
I'll cut you some slack
So why don't you want me
Why don't you want me
It's not a sellout if nobody buys it
I can't be complain 'cause nobody likes it
Should I keep smiling
Or should I start crying
I know that you love me
Cause you said you did
You said that I was the real thing
Hey, where are you going
I thought that you told me
That if I learned how to play the game
Then I would win
If I learned how to say alright to everything
So why don't they want me
Why don't they want me
It's not a sellout if nobody buys it
I can't be complain 'cause nobody likes it
Can I redeem myself
Can I get back my name
I cannot show my face
In any decent place
I was only trying to make it
And now I cannot fake it anymore
Natives have Billboard
Take me for free I'm yours
Lalalalalalala, whoo!
It's not a sellout if nobody buys it
I can't be complain 'cause nobody likes it
Trying Not To Think About It
Southern California is bad for the soul
And New York City takes its toll
The Mississippi River has a mean undertow
How can I sheild myself from the things that I hear
I want to close my eyes and sleep for a year
Tell me that it's only a dream
That it's a nightmare
Trying not to think about it
How can your mother be so strong
When her only baby is gone
I don't know where you are
Everything is wrong
So I'm trying not to think about it
As If Your Life Depended On It
Say hello
As if your life depended on it
Crack a joke, light his smoke
As if your life depended on it
You can't handle his beautiful eyes
And all they symbolize
No flowers in your bottles
No view of the moon from you room
No baby in your belly too
Behind your sleepy eyes
You're hyper-aware of time
Ticking away towards your bed
No one to go home to
Your life is boring you
So you're living for the guy that you just met
There's no such thing as pleasant conversation
It's all just drowning victims gasping for air
You need somebody to save you now
'cause you are surrounded and they're closing in
He gives me a beer
I take a sip
As if my life depended on it
Cause everything matters
And if he doesn't take me up inside
I know I'm gonna die
Behind your sleepy eyes
You're hyper-aware of time
Ticking away towards the end
No one to go home to
Your life is boring you
So you're living for the guy that you just met
No one to go home to
My life is boring too
So you put it all on the guy that you just met
Give Me Some Of That
Give me some of that
You're so young
You don't even know
What you have
Give me some of that
Give it back
I do appreciate
That you have
Too much money
For two hands
Too many days and nights
Too many demands
Give me some of that
You don't really need it
You don't really care
Baby take it all back
You never had to fight
But you still want it
To comfort you
You're like a little kid
With too many choices
Too many habits
Too many places
Too many friends
If I had
Some of what you had
I would be so
So fucking glad
If I had
Half of what you had
I could live off it forever
I would make it last
I want it so much
I want it so bad
Tell everybody
But no one gives a damn
Too much freedom
For one person
You get to have
Too much fun
Give me some of that!
Get Off
It doesn't matter what I say
You're gonna crush me anyway
It doesn't matter what I do
You'll find a way to crush it too
In your mind you can create anything at all
It projects on the walls of your heart
What a beautiful vision, oh you can feel
What you want but it's not really real
When will you get off of me
You must get off of me
Cause I can hardly breathe
Get off of me
It doesn't matter what I mean
You misinterpret everything
It doesn't even bother you
The evil way I look at you
In your mind you can create anything at all
It projects on the walls of your heart
What a horrible nightmare, oh you can feel
If you want but it's not really real
When will you get off of me
You must get off of me
I'm not here to serve your needs
Get off of me
When will you get off of me
You must get off of me
I didn't do anything
Get off of me
The Edge Of Nowhere
Coming to the edge of nowhere
Daydreaming of unconsciousness
The closer that I get
The further I am gone
The horizon is steadier than steal
Where the world ends and the suns disappears
I can't move
The pain is too real
It slips into color I can feel
I can feel
The reds go up
The blues go down
The lights go off
The dark pulls on
Blood will see the fall will define
Valium sleep mixed with wine
If I jump will I fly?
If I fall will I rise?
