A stroll in a hospital parking lot
It's 3 a.m., somebody took my bed
And John just called the party, so everybody left with heavy breaths
Like I didn't attend
But I was there
So if everybody hates me, I hope it's for who I am
I went out the back door, ignoring who I am
I should keep it to myself on nights where nobody wants to listen
I'm not sure if they think I'm alright, because nobody wants to listen
I am not that bad
Scream it in droves
Scream it at homes that say someday you'll find a home
Like this
We wear shoes so our feet won't bleed
But then we think about who we let down with our heads perfectly exposed
I'm invincible as long as I don't die
And then I'll measure my worth by seeing how many people cry
I am not that bad
I've got dozens and dozens of letters that say I should be proud
I am not that bad
Scream it in droves
Scream it at homes that say someday you'll find a home
We wear shoes so our feet won't bleed
But then we think about who we let down with our heads perfectly exposed
I don't want to be here, all alone, inside my head
Without a home
So let's go home

We can make it
If we try
Just use a little bit of common sense
Make sure the kids are alive
Or light the kids on fire
If we can make it, so can anyone
There's quite a lot to digest by now
I'll pump your stomach, leave room for more chewed cow
Wow, that's quite a lot of thinking for a little ball of flesh
And if you model out the future, for the present leave the rest
Your chest is heaviest when emptiness invests
Bone spur timeshares
Just give us your bones
Then we'll leave you alone
Put on your hazmat suite
Step into my room
Create a false sense of comfort
That no one likes to talk about
She won't know you're missing out
Let's get naked
Our bodies melt to one
We excrete the essence: fun
Out the brains, out the lounges
Out the nose, out the tongue
We make out, but I have my doubts
Cause I'm still sober need more liquor
Have you seen the world, it's fucking flat
It's full of scum like me

We can't be so sure that things will last next time
So, thank you for the momentary burst of strength which I cannot contain
Here's to feeling hopeless on a Thursday
Knowing now my heart's wide open
Things change, yeah we all know that
But do you know we change things too
You can laugh all you want
I'm staying positive now
I'm not dissappointed Spray
It happens.

You keep me up late another night
So what's next, a pointless fight?
Don't call me back
You'll get a kick out of this one, and how I messed it up
Okay. Fine. You'll never see me coming back
You were in love, but now it's gone
It's over like your favorite song
It's been the same thing for years
I've heard it
You'll be okay
I've been living in fear forever
And I'm okay, yeah I'm okay
We're older now, sex is sex
You need it like sleep, or another cigarette
You were in love, but now it's gone
It's over like your favorite song
It's been the same thing for years
I've heard it
You'll be okay
I've been living in fear forever
And I'm okay, yeah I'm okay

Four years removed
Without a car, plenty of self-abuse
With cheap beer and cheap friends
Am I too expensive to fit in? Or do I just pretend?
I want to wake up as a different soul
Crack my teeth on a different road
Make the world beg just to know who the fuck I am
We're here
We're a constant
