Of Money and Cars
I’m waking up late in the day, that or staying up
way past 24hours just because I was
jamming all night, trying to write songs that never turned into songs
but that’s alright
And I am not the only one waking up my parents at 1am
coming in and out looking for food, looking for movies and TV series DVDs
we’re not sleeping, we’re not sleeping tonight
Chorus:
I’m kind of in the middle of nowhere
I’m kind of in the middle in the middle of what I should be doing
but that’s alright
I’m second-handing nicotine
his absence of apology is sucking me in
coming in and out of focus while her ocean is rushing
we’re touching arms and legs in our cozy little den of blankets and bodies
we’re a party of 5 6 7
I know I’ve been a little bit antisocial
cuz I’m feeling in my own world
I think it’s cuz I’m way off schedule but I’m on so well
with my sleepless nights
I know it’s gonna change soon
everything’s gonna move over for the presence of my new job
cuz the money’s run out now, I’m starting to break down
I gotta stop flying here, gotta stop floating around
Bridge:
So get outta my way cuz im going to the beach yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

on and on and on and on and on

Second Line
Shit’s really hitting the fan these days
and can we even see it coming or is it just falling on our plates?
I see no reason to get bent out of shape
It’s gotta be happening for a reason or I would not be here
Not sure who’s coming or going anymore
Are you really gonna throw it away and walk out the door
I thought you were serious about this side of the line
Guess everybody’s gotta go and get fucked up sometimes
Guess everybody’s gotta go and get fucked up to find themselves
(Chorus):
I don’t wanna lose my place in line
I’ve worked so hard to get here
Why would I, Why would I throw it all away for a second time
You sure can’t save your ass and your face and at the same at the same time
Standing around smoking cigarettes in the freezing fucking cold
Taking our lives for granted like we can’t wait
for death to get us when we’re old and
Tryna make sense out of these people just falling off the earth
Are you gonna come and get us now or will you wait till we are worthy?

How to Lie
There are little culture shocks within every clique
you enter in all blind thinking that you can handle it
but can you handle it? No
and by the time you notice something is not right
its too late to go back, it’s too late to hold back
you’ve got to stand up and fight
You’ll pick up traits from them and then you will take them home
The kind that bounce from chick to chick and then go get stoned
look at me now, here I am high as a kite
and I don’t know who’s bed I’ll be sleepin in tonight
Chorus:
You can’t be faithful, babe and now neither can I
I learned that from you
You’d think I’d wanna make it work, but I don’t even try
I learned that from you
I learned that from you…
you know that I learned that from you…
I’m becoming frustrated with my inability to tell reality from illusion
How am I to believe in this place? How am I to draw any conclusions
when you switch your faces so convincingly?
Who am I talking to when I talk to you…?
We’re just a couple of sluts, we’re just a couple of losers
You taught me that when I’m drunk I should just go and do her
Chorus
Bridge:
You’ve been nothing but nice to my face but fuck that
cuz you are so ugly behind my back
my naked back
I take it back
You can’t be faithful, babe and now neither can I
I learned that from you
You’d think I’d wanna make it work, but I don’t even try
I learned that from you
You taught me to, You taught me how to lie
I learned that from you
I learned that from you…
you know that I learned that from you…

The In Between
Sometimes everybody’s waiting in the wrong line
and it’s gonna take forever, forever, forever
Last night the scary places in my head had found some light
It felt like things would finally get better, get better get better
Chorus:
I don’t know where the in-between is
I’m always on one side or the other
I get off on the extremes
Balance is few and far between
and I wonder
if that’s subject to change or not
if it’s too engrained or not
Every day the politics of women getting in the way
we’ve come so far we’ve come so far to cover it all up
Ugly or Beautiful? Can’t figure out which one is moral
The way to be. This thinking is trouble, is trouble, it’s trouble
CHORUS
Bridge:
Where’s all the leaders? Can’t find you tonight
Oh well, no white flag. I’ll see ya later in the fight
I’ll see ya later in the fight

Solitaire
written by Kendall Patrick
Pardon me / This seat is taken / Don’t sit down
I am waiting on someone who will not come
Your dinner’s served / I cannot touch it
cuz I am waiting on someone who will not come
I’ll have a drink / Maybe a couple
While I’m waiting on someone who will not come
Till I am drunk / Please don’t remind me
That I am waiting on someone who will not come
Chorus:
I ask myself, “Where did you go?”
I’ve made my move / It’s your turn to go
This is not a game
This is not a game

Peace Out
Ooh don’t know what the fuck to do now
Just the first look and I’m headed for the ground
I’m socially retarded, I think that my part is to peace out
but every time I’ve tried so far, seems I can’t make it past my own shadow
Chorus:
You come and you go
and I’m playing it like I already know that I can win
but I’m totally losing
Maybe I should pick up the phone
and Get some answers that I don’t really wanna know
young self-will run riot. It’s taking over
throw it away until I am older
Chorus
Bridge:
Say goodbye, it’s over
Chorus
