BURSTING AT THE SEAMS
well i know sometimes i come on way too strong
i’ll try to work on it
i’ll try to work on it
i wanna know where you go
when i’m not around to show you
what’s inside my brain
feel like i’m bursting at the seams
but i really should forgive you
i know you just got here
and i know sometimes i come on way too strong
i’ll try to work on it
i’ll try to work on it
and I can see it all so clearly in my head
i wish that I could show you
i wish that I could show you
i get so restless here alone
counting down the hours
waiting by the phone
feel like i’m bouncing off the walls
primed for inspiration
waiting for a call
and i know sometimes i come on way too strong
i’ll try to work on it
i’ll try to work on it
and i can see it all so clearly in my head
i wish that i could show you
i wish that i could show you
four hours a week
is never enough time to unload
everything that accumulated
four hours a week
i’ll have to be concise
try not to blur it all together
and i know sometimes i come on way too strong
i’ll try to work on it
i’ll try to work on it
and i can see it all so clearly in my head
i wish that I could show you
i wish that I could show you
i know sometimes i get so single-minded
i just get excited
when i get to talk to you
i’ll try to work on it
i’ll try to work on it
i wanna know where you go
when i’m not around to show you
what’s inside my brain
feel like i’m bursting at the seams
but i really should forgive you
i know you just got here
and i know sometimes i come on way too strong
i’ll try to work on it
i’ll try to work on it
and I can see it all so clearly in my head
i wish that I could show you
i wish that I could show you
i get so restless here alone
counting down the hours
waiting by the phone
feel like i’m bouncing off the walls
primed for inspiration
waiting for a call
and i know sometimes i come on way too strong
i’ll try to work on it
i’ll try to work on it
and i can see it all so clearly in my head
i wish that i could show you
i wish that i could show you
four hours a week
is never enough time to unload
everything that accumulated

i’ll have to be concise
try not to blur it all together
and i know sometimes i come on way too strong
i’ll try to work on it
i’ll try to work on it

SING TO ME
when i look at what i had
it was never really all that bad
so why the hell am I so sad?
so now, i sit around and wonder how
i've had it so easy until now,
when it's so obvious to me
well i've got Satan's power flowing through my veins
maybe i'll go downtown on the train...
but i need you to sing to me
tell me everything's how it's supposed to be
(okay)
and if you go, i know that i won't last much longer
and everyday i don't fade away, i just get stronger
lying on the kitchen floor
has got me feeling like a postcard
'cause i wish you were here
so now, i can't stop lying, can't stop dying
can't stop crying on the floor
well i've got Satan's power flowing through my veins
maybe i'll go downtown on the train...
but i need you to sing to me
tell me everything's how it's supposed to be
(okay)
and if you go, i know that i won't last much longer
and everyday i don't fade away, i just get stronger
and every day i don't fade away
and every day i don't fade away
i owe to you, and what you do
and every day i don't fade away
and every day i don't fade away
i owe to you
everyday that i don't fade away
i've gotta stop and say my thanks
wouldn't have it any other way
and every day i don't fade away
and every day i don't fade away
i owe to you
but i need you to sing to me
it'll help me to go to sleep
won't let the hands of fate
ever take you away from me
i know that i'll be lost,
that's not a line i'll cross,
i'll have to keep you near
and enjoy the time we're here
i need you to sing to me
help me to go to sleep
won't let the hands of fate
ever take you away from me
i know that i'll be lost,
that's not a line i'll cross,
i'll have to keep you near
and enjoy the time we're here
i need you to sing to me
help me to go to sleep
won't let the hands of fate
ever take you away from me

MARGINS
i don’t mind
living in the margins of
all the time that i have wasted
on my
empty promises
doing fine

i just need a little time to get my

TAKE YOUR ADVICE
i finally took your advice
started making changes
and i know it’s not much
at least i’m going to bed on time
instead of watching t.v.
those informercials you said were boring
but i can’t hardly sleep without
mindless company
and i could probably tell you
that things are looking up for me
it’s hard to tell
stop making excuses
the world’s not getting better,
it’s getting harder to wake up on time
i’m always late
it’s not my fault this day’s not going right
maybe i should find some time
to read that book you gave me
the one with the boring
value statements about
standing up straight
i could finally act my age
i could probably tell you
that things are looking up for me
it’s hard to tell
stop making excuses
the world’s not getting better
it’s getting harder to wake up
on time
i’m always late
it’s not my fault this day’s not going right
i could try. (i could try)
i could tell you everything
come clean and (come clean)
start being honest with myself
i could try. (i could try)
i could tell you everything
come clean and (come clean)
start being honest with my-
keep saying that i’ll try
to finally make some changes
the only thing that’s constant
is i’m lazy and i’m vacant
and i’m not sure
if i’m actually getting better
i’m holding onto something
that i can’t
give myself

SHUT UP
well i never know
when i should shut up
so i’ll try not to say anything at all
you’ve got my name
isn’t that enough?
i could go on and on all night
i could go on and on all night
i’ll deploy every weapon in my arsenal
not to embarrass you
not to embarrass you
but it’s not my fault
i’ve got reservations about social situations
i can’t help it, but it’s like i have to
i’ll be thinking about this conversation
when i’m lying in bed at night
and i do it to myself
and i do it to myself
every time
'cause i never know

i could go on and on all night
about the fight i got in
with the people next door
to the rented house that i can’t afford
with the money from a job that makes me wanna die
where i can’t wait to just go home and get high
three years i’ve been of my meds
that doesn’t change a thing i’ve said
maybe i should keep this in my head
'cause i never know
when i should shut up
so i’ll try not to say anything at all
'cause i’m no good at parties so
pack me up and take me home
or pack me up
and take my phone away
watch my tongue and watch the time

TAMED
somebody told me once
you can’t fix anyone
you’ve gotta worry about yourself first
didn’t mean that much to me
to take advice is like heresy
but now i’m starting to come around some
it’s a goddamn shame
‘cause you know i can’t be tamed
i’m starting to tolerate everything that i used to hate
it’s getting hard to argue
that i’m not tamed
first one home from the bar
gave my car to NPR
it’s getting hard to argue
that i’m not
now i’ve seen it all before
can’t help but ask for more
i guess i never learned my lesson
now the people close to me
the ones that mean the most to me
at least there’s supposed to be
no more second guessing

SLOW ME DOWN
slow me down
keep my feet here on the ground
keep my limbs from shortin' out
i've been feelin' like i
don't know what I'm doing here and
need your voice to calm me down
and i
shrug it off
but we all know
walkin' in my sleep
so count me out
'cause my limbs are shortin' out
nervous energy i guess
heart is beatin' in my chest
all my friends say i need rest
need you here to sort this out
and i
fell asleep
with the lights on again
only way i know
how this will end
at least i tried
to make it right
too many dead end turns
too many times i thought i'd learn
guess i don't know how to see
pictures that you paint for me
now i've got some sorting out to do
so tell me where to go

i am reckless

SEAWATER

i'm drinking seawater

ooooh-ooh-uh-oh-oh
i cup my hands

it only serves to exacerbate
my already stressed neural state

anymore
you said
i don't think
that i know
where the hell i'm supposed to go
but i know i'll let you down
if you stay
Evan:
did i ever tell you
the definition of insanity
and what it means to me
it's doing everything the same
and expecting to change
when you don't do anything
to make
it better
All:
every word
every line
every god damn time
is written on the walls when i walked in
so i'll keep testing faith (i'll keep testing faith)
trying to find a better way (find a better way)
to keep holding myself together
Cade:
having trouble trying' to breathe
with all these things you put on me
everything is upside down
and i don't recognize myself
but i can't live
with the thought of leaving now
'cause all i ever wanted
was to keep myself together long enough for you
All:
every word
every line
every god damn time
is written on the walls when i walked in
so i'll keep testing faith (i'll keep testing faith)
trying to find a better way (find a better way)

but i'm still thirsty
i'm drinking seawater
but i think the worst thing
is lyin' right straight to your face
when i tell you that i feel ok
as the natrium
dehydrates me
i'm drinking seawater
ooooh-ooh-uh-oh-oh
i'm drinking seawater
ooooh-ooh-uh-oh-oh
i cup my hands
and drink my fill from the side of the boat
is it worth it for another day
of just stayin' afloat
it only serves to exacerbate
my already stressed neural state
while the natrium
dehydrates me
i'm drinking seawater
ooooh-ooh-uh-oh-oh
(oo-oo-ooh -- oo-oo-ooh)
i'm drinking seawater
ooooh-ooh-uh-oh-oh
(oo-oo-ooh -- oo-oo-ooh)
and i can't sleep when you're not around
(and i can't sleep when you're not around)
and i can't eat when you're not around
(and i can't eat when you're not around)
and i can't breathe when you're around
(and i can't breathe when you're around)
and i can't dream when you're around
(and i can't dream when you're around)
i'm drinking seawater
ooooh-ooh-uh-oh-oh
(oo-oo-ooh -- oo-oo-ooh)
i'm drinking seawater
ooooh-ooh-uh-oh-oh
(oo-oo-ooh -- oo-ooh)
i'm drinking seawater
ooooh-ooh-uh-oh-oh
(oo-oo-ooh -- oo-oo-ooh)

BAT BOY
why do i surround myself with things that terrify me?
why do i keep myself in a state of constant stress?
why do i let all of the things i hate define me?
when i could've stayed
but i don't feel alive
unless I'm a mess
but god i wish i was someone else
no one specific
just not myself
play the hand that i was dealt
but god i wish that i was someone else
there's a devil on my shoulder
talkin' loudly
and i can't quite make out what he's tryin' to say
there's an angel on the other side
and i haven't heard from her in awhile
tryin' to convince myself that
i'm OK
but god i wish i was someone else
no one specific
just not myself
play the hand that i was dealt
but god i wish that i was someone else
i'd rather be
outside of the liquor store
tryin' to think if i can be in and out before
gotta be back at work
and then off by 4
then be drunk by 4:15
or maybe
hungover on a king size bed
tryin' to smoke enough weed to clear my head
so i can get up and make dinner
but i'm half dead
hope you don't know what i mean
so i say
ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-badada-daaa
da-da-da-da-da-dadada-daaa-aaa
dadadadaaaaa
so i say
ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-badada-daaa
da-da-da-da-da-dadada-daaa-aaa
dadadadaaaaa
i don't usually like to talk about my problems
'cause it just reminds me that they're all my fault
well i wish that i had something new
something better to tell you
really i'm just so glad that you called
well my dad thinks that i'm always in a hurry
but i never got anywhere to be
i'm never happy where i am
tryin' to get anywhere i can
as far away from me
but god i wish i was someone else
no one specific
just not myself
play the hand that i was dealt
but god i wish that i was someone else

if i beat my head against the wall
do you think my skull would cave in
before i made one brick fall?
if i don't believe in you
you can't let me down
if i don't believe in you
you can't let me down
heavy is the head that wears the crown
i hope that every piece of silver you make
is like an anchor that drags you down
the only thing that keeps me coming in at all
is the thought that when it all comes down
you'll be the first one up against the wall
if i don't believe in you
you can't let me down
if i don't believe in you
you can't let me down
and i don't believe you
'cause i've never seen you
do anything you say (anything you say)
and i don't believe you
'cause i don't need to
you'll still be here anyway
