Wake, take this pill and you'll feel better No you'll never be just like the other kids Wait, in a white walled doctors office You won't always feel so toxic after this But they don't know the half of it The weight you carry in your sunken chest Gawkers and onlookers will say It'd be convenient if you weren't like this So keep your chin up slugger in the morning you'll feel better The hardest part is getting to sleep Drink, anything to numb the feeling Force a smile like everything is alright Stand, on a ledge sixty-five feet above the ground And think of taking your life You can step back from the edge, you are stronger than this I don't know you, but I know I've been there Learn to live for yourself, and fuck everyone else It's never easy, but tell me what is No they don't know the half of it The weight you carry in your sunken chest Gawkers and onlookers will say It'd be convenient if you weren't like this It's a sad sick shame that they can profit off of sadness At every corner pharmacy And when the gunshot finally goes off no one ever seems to notice The signs were always clear to see So keep your chin up, slugger in the morning you'll feel better The hardest part is getting to sleep

Bar Tab 03:04
Truth, it found me When I was all alone You crawled out of the window Now this house is not a home You swore that you would be there when I woke So tell me now where were you when I woke Washing someone off my skin has never felt quite this good before Now I'm doing all the things that I missed out on Like picking up the bar tab, and waking up with no one else around It's been a year without you, and I think I'm happy now I've been drinking by myself Better than living in this hell You swore that you would be there when I woke So tell me where were you when I woke Washing someone off my skin has never felt quite this good before Now I'm doing all the things that I missed out on Like picking up the bar tab, and waking up with no one else around It's been a year without you, and I think I'm happy now From picking up the bar tab, and waking up with no one else around It's been a year without you, and I think I'm happy now

Drywall 03:58
Waiting on the curb Sober and saving face Hoping for the worst I should have walked away But you looked so cool In white converse and cut off jeans Jaded and hard to please It means nothing to me Spent most of my evening with you on the front porch drinking Staring out at street lit pavement You always keep me waiting Holes in the drywall As you stumble down the hall Burns in the carpet From your best friend's cigarette The drugs are wearing off I know I should be bitter but I'm not Still waiting for you to call Spent most of my evening with you on the front porch drinking Staring out at street lit pavement You always keep me waiting You said you wanted change But didn't have the guts to change a god damn thing Why'd you make me wait If you were never coming back here anyway When I saw you on the train I didn't have the guts to say a thing Spent most of my evening on the front porch drinking Staring out at street lit pavement You always keep me waiting
