My talking to myself is getting worse
I used to be able to control the curse
Now even in a situation where everything I say matters in the eyes of another
I say things that’d alarm just about anyone
I was talking to my friend the other day
I was pretty stoned and I didn’t have anything to say
But I sure have things to say the rest of the time when I’m by myself
And every night I make a toast to my good health
Cuz there always is somebody on the train
Who turns their head around when I say the things I say
My talking to myself is getting worse
I should worry about things I should actually worry about first
And there’s lots of other people with old flames breakups on their mind
So I guess I’m lucky I’ve never gotten with anyone
I went down to a show the other day
All my friends were there but I didn’t have anything to say
But I sure have things to say the rest of the time when I’m by myself
And every night I make a toast to my good health
And I’d like to pay somebody for their time
Cause it helps to have a guide through the mazes of your mind
But I’d rather spend that money on a night on the town
And wake up with more shit to remember
My talking to myself is getting worse
My talking to myself is getting worse
My talking to myself is getting worse
My talking to myself

Hell World
02:56
|
|||
World number one is the world of suits and ties
Clarity escapes me but jealousy inspires
And world number two is the world that comes at night
Let my age just slip away, must be a year I’ve spent in bars
Hell world
The world I summon with fire
And break my day in half
Sometimes at two, sometimes at four
Count to six and that’s a whole lot more than usual
World number one is the world where parties think
Counting all your money when you’re going out to drink
And world number two is the one I chose from fear
Drawn to that light from a very young age, in bars I must’ve spent a year
Hell world
The world I summon with fire
And break my day in half
Sometimes at two, sometimes at four
That guy I met said that’s a whole lot more than usual
Two worlds
Two worlds
Hell world
I chose my fortune in hell world
Instead of up in the sky
Sometimes a two, sometimes a four
Just pretend that I’m a whole lot more than usual
Two worlds
Two worlds
A world of light and hell world

Livin’ moon doggy dog with my tail in the air
No cares
Livin’ moon doggy dog with the wind in my hair
Who cares
I’m free as a bird
But don’t say a word
About the real things
I’ll get to them when I can
And the things that make me a man
Are right here on my chest
Livin’ moon doggy dog with my tail in the air
No cares
Livin’ moon doggy dog with the wind in my hair
No cares
There’s nothing to fear
Except a couple of years
In the rearview
I’ll get to them when I can
That’s been my mantra
Every day since I was born
Catching up
I'm catching up

Meme World

Meme world where everything is insincere
Meme world don’t bring that shit around here
Meme world where the cake is cut with shit
Meme world where the goal of the game’s to beat everything
I’m trying to have a conversation
And I feel enthusiastic
But you’re not supposed to feel anything around here
Meme world where everything is insincere
Meme world don’t bring that shit around here
Where do I fall on your hierarchy of things of which you approve
If you didn’t know me personally you’d probably think that I was a fool
I’m trying to have a conversation
And I feel enthusiastic
But you’re not supposed to feel anything around here
Cause the man with the feelings kinda makes you laugh
In the morning those feelings kinda make you laugh
Meme world
Meme world
Meme world
Meme world
I’m trying to watch a movie
And I’m really enjoying the movie
But you’re not supposed to enjoy anything around here
Cause the man with the feelings kinda makes you laugh
In the morning those feelings kinda make you laugh

Unattractive Man
01:40
|
|||
Haven’t brushed my hair in a while
I don’t even look in the mirror that much
The little things add up to an unattractive man
Haven’t washed this coat in a while
I don’t think about what I wear too much
The little things add up to an unattractive man
I had a friend that I was trying to make something happen with
So I took them out to a show
And then they left to go to another show
To try and get with the singer of this other band
I wondered what do I have on another man
And then I realized the little things add up to an unattractive man
A man who’s always trying but can never understand
That the little things add up to an unattractive man

Old Man
02:21
|

You got your crew together and you’re going to a bar
I’d really love to join you but it’s just a little too far
To go out in this weather and spend money on a beer
I’d really love to join you but maybe not this time of year
I’m 25 but I can feel the old man start to set in
I can feel the old man start to set in
You got your crew together and you got a lot of friends
The bar clock on the wall is ticking closer to the end
By the time I ate and showered it’d be like two o’clock
And there wouldn’t be much purpose in getting in a Lyft
I’m 25 but I can feel the old man start to set in
I can feel the old man start to set in
In the excuses I make to not go out
Process for going out is slow
I drink and hope I’m done by the time it’s time to go
And then what happens?
I just end up staying in
I’m 25 but I can feel the old man start to set in
I can feel the old man start to set in

Stooge
02:25
|

“Wanted: Desperate Bastard,” I was the first in line
Howling like a dog for the scraps they threw me in line
Stooge on Christmas dancing around like a fool
Trying to catch the money that gets stuck to me with glue
I had a golden moment but it burned out into ash
Now I kiss the ass of children with a business plan and cash
Stooge on Christmas dancing around like a fool
Trying to catch the money that gets stuck to me with glue
But what else could I really want?
“Wanted: Dancing Monkey,” I was the first in line
I simpered like a broken man til they told me everything’s fine
Stooge on Christmas dancing around like a fool
Trying to catch the money that gets stuck to me with glue
But what else could I really want?

Success

John come on, can’t you see the hurt in my eyes
You’re the reason rent’s going up but I’m still looking in your eyes
Stones on the street and shit on my shoes, what a mess
Rich bastard jetting round the world, success
John come on, you don’t need to mince words
I can picture the place you live, you don’t need to say it’s pretty nice
I’m an ant on your window man, what a mess
Rich bastard jetting round the world, success
I can be a work of art
Like the music in the Uber car
Or the Koons that’s still in the mail
John come on, can’t you see the look in my eyes
Cooking up a brand new scheme at the party, I can see the signs in your eyes
I’m an ant from your window man, what a mess
Rich bastard jetting round the world, success
Rich bastard, success, yeah success

Cannabis Mogul
01:57
|
|||
In a country house touched by tragedy
Lives a small faction of the family
Playing in my cousin’s band was Ross
And I swear the fire started there
With Ross’s red hair
He’s a cannabis mogul now
He’ll bring riches to any family
And they’ll probably have a bruiser baby
I wanna buy a time machine
Is that your orange hair or did it fall off the weed?
Playing in my cousin’s band was Ross
And I swear the fire started there
With Ross’s red hair
He’s a cannabis mogul now

He's There
02:00
|

You don’t know how lucky you are
Ryan’s your roommate
And you take the man for granted
You don’t even care he’s there
It’s an access I would kill for
He’s there
And even in the van
All you can think of is driving
But it’s 8 hours with nothing to talk about
Sounds kinda like a date
When you drive down 5 on your west coast
He’s there
And you don’t even realize he’s cute
You don’t know how lucky you are
I can’t take anyone for granted
I’m just happy when anyone’s there
And you’ll never be his lover
But he’s there
And you don’t even realize he’s cute
He’s there
He’s there
He’s there
He’s there

Maybe it’s the February wind coming in or maybe it’s just ourselves
Everybody showed up feeling kinda strange but we gave comfort to ourselves
But we gave comfort to ourselves
Friends
That’s what they’re for
For the long cold nights of the soul
But alas, they don’t ever wanna be around
Maybe it’s the February wind coming in or maybe it’s just myself
Everybody seems to got something to fix so I gave comfort to myself
Yeah I gave comfort to myself
Friends
That’s what they’re for
For the long cold nights of the soul
But alas, they don’t ever wanna be around
And it seems they don’t ever wanna be around
Around me
Around me
They don’t ever wanna be around
They don’t ever wanna be around

Buried By Time And Dust
02:09
|
|||
Played for no one, I wonder where everyone went
Slipping in and out of town, I relied on my friends for the crowd that I’d get
And those fools, I’m sure they’re content
Going after me at the show going “we’re so much better than the guy who just went”
Buried by time and dust in a transient teenage town
I can see leaves start to fall from the trees but there’s no one sticking around
Played for nothing, I’ll take anything I can get
For me it’s more about after the show and the things I’ve done and the people I’ve met
Buried by time and dust in a transient teenage town
I can see leaves start to fall from the trees but there’s no one sticking around
Buried by time and dust, my time in this place is done
It’ll grow without me now til the great work of God is done
Played for no one
Played for no one
Buried by time and dust in a transient teenage town
I can see leaves start to fall from the trees but there’s no one sticking around
Buried by time and dust, my time in this place is done
It’ll grow without me now til the great work of God is done

I’m not cleaning up carnage right now
I’ll wake up in the morning and realize it wasn’t so bad
I’m not gonna worry about it right now
Something no one remembers but I still feel so bad
I’m not cleaning up garbage right now
I’ll do it in the morning and then I won’t feel so bad
I’m not gonna worry about it right now
I don’t think they remember but I still feel so bad
Right now
Right now
Even now
