It’s not what you say
But where you belong
There’s no time to think
Just sing along
I never said I’d change
Just more of the same
It’s out of my way
And down the-
Don’t want to be the only one who thinks he’s wrong
That’s not enough
And I- don’t want to be the one who always think that he’s right
When I’m totally not
Don’t say you tried and planned
Don’t think you understand
It always ends up the same way in the end
If you could empathize
Sit down apologize
I know there’s nothing left to say or to defend
And I- Don’t want to be the one that always thinks that it’s wrong
That’s not enough
And I- Don’t wanna be the one who always says that it’s right
When I’m totally not
I feel you in the morning after
And I can sense you deep inside my skull
And where that goes hell only knows back to the place you know you’re running from
Another place I don’t belong
And I- don’t want to be the only one who says that it’s wrong
That’s not enough
And I- don’t want to be the only one who thinks that he’s right
When I’m totally not
I feel you in the morning after
And I- I can sense you deep inside my bones
I feel you in the morning after
And I- I can send you deep inside my skull
And where that goes hell only knows
Back to the places you know we’re running from
Another place I don’t belong

Pipebomb
Every word is like a pipebomb
Better yet pretend there’s nothing wrong
If you’re too scared to leave the light on
Pull the cord and the next stop I’ll get off
If only works if you try too
Another line it won’t be nothing new
If you’re too scared to leave the light on
Pull the cord and the next stop I’ll get off
You don’t get to shit right down my throat
Turn around and try to call it a root beer float
You don’t get to say you like this band
Talk shit so small that birds can’t land
In the night
Who do you have left you can turn to
When the damage inside of you
Is too afraid because it looks deep
Pull the cord and the next stop I’ll get off
Every word is like knife wound
Turning the handle inside of you
If you’re too scared to leave the light on
Pull the cord and the next stop I’ll get off
You don’t get to say that you play fair
You stack the deck and try to tell me that I don’t care
You don’t get to pretend that we’re the same
Talk a mean game but then you cave
The same
We get it
You’ve had it
It’s not looking good for us
We get it
You’ve had enough
She’s had it
He’s had it
It’s not looking up for us
We get it
You’ve had enough
You want it all to be the same
So bring the pain
You don’t get to shit right down my throat
Turn around and try to tell it’s a root beer float
You don’t get to say you like this band
Talk shit so small that birds can’t land
In the night
We get it
You’ve had it
It’s not looking good for us
We get it
You’ve had enough
She’s had it
He’s had it
It’s not looking up for us
We get it
You’ve had enough
You want it all to be the same

Scott sank to the bottom of the deep
Cheap and easy to find you
There is no need to remind you
And everyone’s got something for you now
But there’s no reason to follow the bitter pill that you swallow
There is no easy way out
There is no mission to find you
With all the questions leading to the answers left untold
There is no easy way down
There is no voyage to save you
For all the lies you ever told you told them to yourself
Kate stepped to the edge of the West bank
Looking eager to borrow
Another clue you won’t follow
Blank stares illuminate grey skies
You never bothered to ask why
You only know how to sink to
Another easy way out
Another mission to find you
With all the questions leading to the answers left untold
There is no easy way down
There is no voyage to save you
For all the lies you ever told you told them to yourself
There is no easy way out
There is no mission to find you
With all the questions tracing back the answers of your past
There is no easy way down
There is no decision to save you
For all the lies you ever told you told them to yourself

Yeah you take the stand
But will you testify
Under oath or under command
Yeah you change the rules
But now you change the game
By saying anything you can
And I know know know just what you’re doing here
And how I’ve got it all wrong
I swear that I swear I wouldn’t be anywhere
Without dirty Punkrock songs
And nobody knows how long it’s gonna take to get there
You think we might have seen a landmark or 2 or 3 by now
But if you need someone to hold
When the nights have grown too cold
Just know that I can be everywhere at the same time
The same time
Sure you take the stand
But not in self-defense
You got the power of faith on your side
Hypocritic, opportunistic
You got the crime and I’ll serve the time
And I know know know just what you’re doing here
And what you’d say to me to today
You’d swear that you’d swear I would get anywhere
Once you get out of my way
And nobody knows how long it’s gonna take to get there
You think we might have set off a landmine or 2 or 3 now
But if you want someone to hold
When the nights they’ve grown too cold
Just know I can be everywhere at the same time
The same time
And just how long do you expect them to sing along?
The fires in my hand and in the ream of self-control
And just how low do you want the shit show to go?
I swear it sounded better in my head than dripping down your spine
And nobody knows how long it’s gonna take to get there
You think we might have seen a landmine or 2 or 3 now
But if you want someone to hold
When the nights they’ve grown too cold
Just know I can be everywhere at the same time
The same time
The same time

Maybe you never heard the knock on the door
And it seems just like we’ve been here before
And now we’re only floating away
I can’t hear anyone
I can’t hear anything else
And all the anecdotes just get in the way
I hope it snows forever and a day
And it’s taken all my courage to say
I owe you everything
Can’t think of anyone else
And I’d give anything to say
That I know who you are today
You take your time behind my back
I wonder if you wonder it’s a matter of fact
I don’t know the first thing
That’s bumming you out now it’s worsening
You never wear your heart on your sleeve
If there’s something simple say it to me
Your smile fades in the spring time
Don’t owe you anything
Don’t owe you anything else
And if I ever have to see you again
I promise this will be the end
And I’ll blame it on the record store
Can’t help it anymore
Did I help you at all
Cause I’d give everything I’ve made
To say that I love who you are today
You take your time behind my back
I wonder if you wonder it’s a matter of fact
You don’t know the first thing
Bringing me down now it’s worsening
Cause these are the thoughts that live inside my head
I wonder if I’m better or if I’m better off dead
I don’t know the first thing bumming you out
Now it’s worsening
I don’t know the first thing
Bringing you down now it’s worsening
I don’t know the first thing
That’s bumming you out
Now it’s worsening

Stronger opening
Expiated atrophy
All you had to do was ask
Whether it’s charting a new sea
The place you’re meant to be
Or kissing someone’s ass
You keep telling me to change my mind
Flip me over, hit play, then rewind
I once was lost
But now I’m found
Guess I figured out
Navigated my way out
Without your sex appeal
Would you have a record deal
Or still be waiting tables?
See I do what I want
And you do what you’re told to do
But now I’m able
To say I will not forgive I won’t forget
Doubled down and called and you can bet
I once was blind but now I see
Guess it starts in me
Made it where I want to be
And I know we’re still landlocked
But can you suspend your disbelief?
Please
You keep telling me how I should live
Fuming like I have a fuck to give
I once was lost
Twice deceived
The fire starts in me
Guess I still believe
Shuck

I fucked up a Get Dead song in Minnesota
It was the worst night of the whole damn tour
When the guy in the Misfits shirt just kind of walked away
I began to fear that’s when we lost the room
Now Timmy Guns is keeping the pre-roll on lock
And Young Ish is just churning the night away
But when Jeremy checked himself into the hospital
That’s when McGuire turned to me and sang
Have you danced with the Devil in the pale moonlight?
Do you know whose house we’re crashing at tonight?
Have you seen Sam?
Would you like a beer or dab?
Did we make enough merch to get a Hotel?
Now Pat should not ask hobos for free cigarettes
Especially now in Nelson or Calgary
Now every time we gotta get into the van
We remind him that he is 23
We made a lot of friends over in Edmonton
Canadians said our Punkrock skills legit
But when Sam drank too much whiskey in Regina
That’s when the night all kinda went to shit
Have you danced with the Devil in the pale moonlight?
Do you know whose house we’re crashing at tonight?
Do you have the trailer keys?
Did Flatfoot already leave?
How many songs is Agent Orange gonna play tonight, yeah?
Now the acid was timed to hit at the boarder
Being detained for 2 hours will make you have to pee
They found the drugs that Scotty hid inside the room
Cause everywhere we go we make a scene
Have you danced with the Devil in the pale moonlight?
Do you know whose house we’re crashing at tonight?
Have you seen Sam?
Would you like a beer or dab?
Did we make enough money to get a hotel?
So don’t fuck up Get Dead songs in Minnesota
Remember your breakdowns and outrows too
If the guy in the Adolescents shirt just walks away
Then I guess you’ll have to tell us fuck you too

Everybody wants to have more fun
When cloistered in doubt
Fear is the new drug
We’re on the way out
Please tell me how to live
A sneer into a grin
Create or replicate
Postmodern masturbate
I spend my time in the rough
Get tough get tough get tough
Tell me you’ve had enough
Cause we’ll fight
We’ll win
Show how to bleed American
We’ll kill to fight and die to live
No love
No Hate
No masters but what you create
To lose or live
Deny yourself
It’s already gone
You waste your time talkin that shit
Open your mind don’t be a hypocrite
Laid out
Guns out
Walking around the sweet decay
We live to fight another day
I bide my days in the rough
Get tough get tough get tough
Tell me you’ve had enough
Cause we’ll fight
We’ll win
Show how to bleed American
We’ll kill to live and live to fight
No hate
No love
Just vicious bastards from above
Destroy, rebuild, begin to create
We’ll fight
We’ll win
Spit back their own medicine
Don’t deny change within yourself
No love
No hate
Just sit back commiserate
We’ll kill to live and live to kill
Don’t say you’ll change
Bruce Willis ain’t got nothing on this shit

In a different time
In a different state
We create
An ounce of comfort
But for now we just die in our
Gridlock just like we’re landlocked
And are you Barney?
And is this Bedrock?
Because I can’t see
A goddamn thing
And that bird just gets in the way
And I don’t care if I get lost
And I don’t care if I get hurt
I just wanted peace through discomfort
To show this guy treats you like a jerk
And I don’t care if I get scared
And I don’t care if I fuck off
I just wanted love left after rent
To know that this justifies the cost
Cause love
I need you to comprehend that you’re bending my ear
With every word you say
Cause I
I’ll make it quite clear
Through my hopes and stares
That I’ll get up again
Are you a southern cross?
Or a hole in the ground?
I can smell a rat from 10 yards
No matter where you
Don’t think that I can hear you
But if I don’t sleep
This will be something new
And I don’t need a companion
Who’s just going to get in the way
And I don’t care if I get lost
And I don’t care if I get hurt
I just wanted peace through discomfort
To show this guy treats you like a jerk
And I don’t care if I get scared
And I don’t care if I fuck off
I just wanted love left after rent
To know this pain justifies the cost
Cause love
I need you to comprehend that you’re burning my ears
With every word you say
Cause I
I’ll make it quite clear
Through my hopes and sneers
That I’ll get up again

Falling down the rabbit hole
A bitter heart and a force full of pull
Harmless facts you should learn to tell yourself
Waking mind and sleight of hand
We’ll make a mockery out of this
In troubled hallways you have learned to trust yourself
Now I don’t know
Was it you?
Is there anything left to do?
Cause we only use the right words
The wrong way
But now there’s nothing to say
Was it you?
Was it me?
Is there anything left to see?
When we only use the wrong words
The right way
Now there’s nothing to say
Brick through the stained glass of your mind
A better paycheck interests your time
Of course there’s somethings you should try to do yourself
A lanky dog and a tired bit
We’ll suck the fun right out of this shit
These are the days that you could learn to be yourself
But I don’t know
Was it you?
Is there anything left to do?
When we only use the right words
The wrong way
But now there’s nothing to say
Now I don’t know
Was it me?
Is there anything left to see?
When we only use the wrong words
The right way
But now there’s nothing to say
The truth is in the photograph
Turning tides but the film won’t lost
And it shows
And thrown it away
I was in your family tree
Made a face that didn’t work for me
Cut it lose turn and burn
And blew me away
Now I don’t know
Was it you?
Is there anything left to do?
When we only use the right words
The wrong way
But now there’s nothing to say
Now I don’t know
Was it me?
Is there anything left to be?
Cause we only use the right words
The wrong way
But now there’s nothing to say
We only use the right words
The wrong way
But now there’s nothing to say
We only use the right words
The wrong way
But now there’s nothing to say

You got your first real switchblade
You always liked the way it felt
Cold and true
Designed for what you lose
You had the best witty comebacks
Instincts are what you’re made of now
Deprived youth
You love all that you choose
You got your first real switchblade
You always liked the way it felt
Cold and true
Designed for what you lose
You are all that you choose
I saw
Your shadow
Dancing on the wall
You were there
Last night
Praying for me to fall
I know you’re beneath it all
Fell in love with you first car
Always like the way it felt
Gripped these roads
Cold wet to find yourself
Had a taste of the good life
Looking for a new fix now
Can’t undo what you never had at all
In the dreams I can recall
I saw
Your ghost
Dancing on the walls
You were there
Last night
Praying for me to fall
I know you’re beneath it all
You fell in love with your first wife
Always thought she was the one
Damned untrue
Designed for what you lose
You fell in love with your handgun
You always liked the way it felt
Cold untrue
Designed for what you lose
You are all that you choose

Losing my mind or am I losing my patience I
Never said that I would die for this dumb shit
I never meant to cause you pain
It was always our pride that got carried away
Loving my life just like I loved my whole family I
Always believed and I burned with desire
To carry on
No disregard for the moments that came
We were ghosts in the dark
Looking back on all these sinking ships
We were trains off tracks
We were dead to the wind
But I get by
And I’ll be fine
Learning to swim but we were grounded like sailors we
Made some mistakes but wouldn’t say it’s a failure
I can’t compete with the way you feel
It was always your word against mine in the end
Loving my life just like I loved my whole family I
Never said that I would die for some dumb shit
The gifts we shared have come and gone
We were waiting for gusts that always pulled us apart
Looking back on all these sinking ships
We were trains off tracks
We were dead to the wind
But I’ll pretend
And I’ll be fine
Here’s to looking back on all these sunken ships
We were trains off tracks
We were ghosts in the wind
No more leaving town
Bottles Breakdown
Staring At The Wall
Bri and Jimmy’s Last Call
But I’ll pretend
And I’ll feel fine

Here it to bad luck in all its forms
That we have to learn from
Don’t break character you will
Bounce back and learn from your mistakes
Do you give more than you take?
I don’t think we will make it
Never said that I would ever be saying sorry
For something that I know I could never be
Cause I’m not sorry
The only thing that word should ever mean to yourself is that
Sooner or later
You get what you’re after
Know who is the slave and see who is the master
Running from the places we can find
Some payback in my mind
I’ve seen this fall to pieces
Fuse, mend, uncomfortably create
Do you choose all that you hate?
Not jaded, complicated
Never thought that I would ever say
That I’m not sorry for something that I know I would never do
Cause I’m not sorry
The only thing that that word should ever mean for yourself is that
Sooner or later you get what you’re after
See who is the slave and know who is the master
Faster
Spun from an early grave
I’ve been out of my Plato’s cave
Don’t think for even one minute
That sooner or later you get what you’re after
I whip out my heart then you leave me right after
All these things and more they are just waiting for you and there’s
No hope to ignore just what door will you choose and then
Don’t live down your great mistakes
Change love and give it a break
Live to love learn to forgive
Yourself
