Alone

Alone on my birthday
Listening to Modest Mouse
Things are never the way that I want them to be
The days just get longer
With you
And I don't think I can do it
Chorus:
And I saw
Through all of my excuses
And I know
That I'm completely useless
And I saw
A big hole and a shovel
And I know you're what's dragging me down
There's gotta be someway
To make it out somehow
But I can't stand the silence when you're not around
The days just get longer
With you
And I don't think I can do it
Chorus

Already Know

Take a look inside yourself
Baby tell me what you see
Does it make you feel so proud?
Or do you feel jealousy?
I don't know where we will go
Or what we'll do when we leave here
We still have some time to grow
That's something you already
Chorus:
You already know
Take a listen to yourself
Baby tell me what you hear
Do you sound like someone else?
Do you wanna disappear?
I'm just watching time go by
While I'm waiting here for you
Almost time to say goodbye
But baby I'm not ready
Chorus
Take your feelings for this town
Baby throw them to the wind
Watch them crash into the ground
Watch yourself begin to live
We can leave it all behind
And maybe finally move ahead
We can start to use our minds
Well baby are you ready?

Alright
02:37
|
|||
Chickens lay and dogs lie
Buzzing with the bar flies
Doing what I said I'd do
Living life without you
Chorus:
Stop telling me it's alright
When it's not alright at all
I know that things are not the same
When you ignore my calls
Stop telling me it's alright
When it's not alright at all
I know that things just ain't the same
Without your picture on the wall
Everything is upside down
At least my feet are on the ground
Wishing I was never there
Wishing that I didn't care
Chorus

Angels Lost

Tell you everything I've done
Well I can tell you
Do do do do do
What I have to do
Do do do do do
I have you?
Do do do do do
I hope I do
Chorus:
I'll raise you high
Up off the ground
Straight to the sky high high
Won't let you down
Straight to the sky high high
Won't let you drown
I've got everything I want
Because I have you
Do do do do do
Anything for you
Feel drawn in by magnetic pull
When I'm around you
Do do do do do
What it takes with you
Chorus

Improvised Explosives
02:41
|

Explosives are improvised
This blueprint's outdated
Must be this tall to ride
This film is R rated
A blessing in disguise
You must be mistaken
Everything you give to me
Is what I'll be taking
Chorus:
I'll force my way inside
If something isn't right
It's all in your mind
It's all in your mind
Come along and hang on tight
It's gonna be a bumpy ride
Got nothing to do
Nothing today
Look into your eyes
In between your thoughts
Let you take hold
Nowhere else I wanna be
I'm home sweet home

Shuffle Down
03:14
|
|||
Lyrics:
Shufflin' cards
A whorehouse cut
Wineskin of shine
Drinkin' it up
Wingshooting through a Winchester scope
Death rattle hides in the back of my throat
Chorus:
Shuffle Down
Down town
Stick with us and we'll get you around
Shuffle down
Down down
Better alive than in the ground
Set on the stoop
In a Windsor chair
A widows crux of I don't cares
Cut and paste girl
In a crash dive
Bring me along, along for the ride
Chorus

The Answer
03:08
|
|||
Let the dog down
Easy now
Take him to the back
And put him down down
You tried to strike it flush
But you're shit out of luck
Got more in common
With a dead mutt on the ground
Chorus:
It's all not enough
You're waiting there for a sign
A sign from above
To let you know you'll be fine
You'll just give up
Like you do every time
Don't try hard enough
The answer is in your mind
There's a method to
Everything that you do
You'll never be free
Never be who I see
Destined to fail
Your ship has set sail
Stranded all alone
A dog without a bone
Chorus

Wifelike
04:23
|
|||
When I saw you there
Oh girl you really shook me up
Of all the stupid places to be
Only think of you
When I'm feeling all fucked up
Like something must be wrong with me
See you standing there
I lost myself inside your stare
I'm drowning in your big brown eyes
You're so wifelike girl
With your posture and your curves
You bring out the best in me
Chorus:
I don't care at all
How hard you make me fall
I'll just get right back
Right back right back up and say
There's nothing up your sleeve
So I'll just leave you alone
Basking in pity
You're so pretty but so petty
