Another evening, same as the last Time wasted, holding my breath Trying to impress a stranger And avoiding the danger Of slipping on the ice and breaking my neck Another morning, same as the last Another day spent muttering words Under pretense of conversation Under pretense of compassion Maybe it's not so bad Spring is coming soon Another evening, same as the last Time wasted, being alive Trying to impress a stranger And avoiding the danger Of slipping on the ice and breaking my neck

Maybe one day I'll get my shit together But your lipstick stained coffee mug Causes these cigarette stained teeth to chatter Forget casual chatter, my mouth doesn't work that way I'll just stare at my shoes and look away It's kind of funny

Waking up on the wrong side of the bed And the wrong side of the state We used to claim these streets as our own Now they stand to remind me that I peaked in the past And I still get back up, I start over Hold me tight, because every day I feel older But maybe I'm just jaded and weathered by the cold I'll break off some curb and spit some broken teeth out And I still get back up, I start over Hold me tight, because every day I feel older

Lake Urbana 02:41
Hey perfect stranger, I can't take the hint. Why are you looking at me? I just hit my head, so maybe I'll have the courage To think a little less and talk a little more Sweet, caustic smoke on your front porch And broken bottles we didn't care much for But it's always dusk when your head's down And your back's against the sun Late night, three plates of junk I can't figure out what's gotten me into this funk I would've spent most of the night sad, alone, and drunk Had I not found my niche; I guess I got good luck Some nights I fantasize About jumping in and opening my eyes I imagine the water a sea of green And like thoughts of you, so far from clean All of my friends moved north to greater prospects and greater lakes I wish I could've joined them All I've got is this shitty pond, it always freezes over Wake me up when it thaws
5.
I'm done writing songs about the weather Or seasons changing, or whatever It's not introspective; I'm just a lazy asshole So hit me with lightning And start my heart up Because I'm just sitting I'm just waiting I'm a spoiled little shit And all of my petty little problems None of them matter So hit me with lightning Put that spark in my throat Because I wanna fall back I wanna forget that I breathe I'm a spoiled little shit And all of my petty little problems None of them matter I'm too tall for this shit I just wanna be small, smaller than you make me feel
