Why Can't I Learn?

I have no clue
Why all these things we do
Doesn't mean anything
When you're standing on the wing
I'll die alone
Without your help
That's what I keep telling myself
Why can't I learn like everyone else
That life doesn't belong on the shelf
Staring at the ceiling fan
Try and count the blades you can
Passing time is wasting it
I won't stand i'll always sit
I'm all alone
Don't need help
That's what I keep telling myself
Why can't I learn like everyone else
Which way to turn, it's always left
Tell me how can I keep from crying
Show me how to keep my friends from dying

Slipping Down the Drain

My ears are ringing
Birds are singing
My legs are shaking
The beast is waking
Until this day comes
I can do what I want
I can do what I can
I could live in a van
I could keep myself from
Slipping down the drain
Until I settle down
I'll be living in this town
I couldn't keep myself from
Going insane
My head is aching
The ground is quaking
My eyes are burning
And these tables keep turning
Until this day comes
I can do what I want
I can do what I can
I could live in a van
I could keep myself from
Slipping down the drain
Until I settle down
I'll be living in this town
I couldn't keep myself from
Going insane

Living Without Care
04:29
|

With all the wrongs and the rights of this world
And I feel like i'm just here for chasing squirrels
Barking up the tree that has fallen down
While no one else makes a sound
I don't know what is going on half the time
I don't know how to sing or how to rhyme
I just sit here strumming this guitar
And I wonder how I ever got this far
I a lost, but you you are found
I wait patiently for you to run y into the ground
I am here, but you, you are there
I have finally found the meaning of living without care
With all the bright shimmering lights in this town
The stars will shine, but they will all drown
Like the lost hopes and dreams that come out from the sea
Like the final broken promise you have laid upon me
Where have you been in my life all these years
I always need someone to wipe away the tears
Because these fantasies I dream will never come true
Because I spend all my time thinking about you
And the lost hopes and dreams that come out from the sea
And the final broken promise you have laid upon me
and the day's that i've spent strumming this guitar
And the times i've wondered how I ever got this far
And barking up the tree that has fallen down
While no one else makes a sound
I a lost, but you you are found
I wait patiently for you to run y into the ground
I am here, but you, you are there
I have finally found the meaning of living without care
I have finally found the meaning of living without care
I have finally found the meaning of living without care
I have finally found the meaning of living without care
I have finally found the meaning of living without care

In Memories
03:42

Big grey clouds I see pass by
Make me sad sometimes I cry
I want to keep
Every sight I see
In memories
Big black plume of ash and flame
Falling on the boxcar trains
I want to touch
Everything I have
In memories
And when you fall from broken trees
And you wake up from your sleep
You'll be laying next to me
In your dreams
In memory of all the songs I promised I would sing
In memory of all those things I said I wouldn't think
I remember what I did that day, the memories won't go away
I told you I was sorry, but I still see those
Big grey clouds passing by
Make me sad sometimes I cry
I want to keep
Every sight I see
In memories

Drifting into the Cosmos
02:30
|
|||
|
Drifting into the cosmos, looking for a better home
But I can't seem to find it
I'm all alone and i'm scared
But I know I will find it
I'm getting closer, I can feel it
There's a light in the distance
I do not think they are friendly
I'm scared
I want my mommy
Mommy

One of Those Days
03:51

Someday we will die
And it's taking all my time
Nobody feels the same after pain
Wake up and see the sky
It's brighter than you think
It's glowing yellow and pink
If the word erupts in flame, you can't put it out
Wake up to see the rain
Someday we will die
And it's wasting all my time
But today is one of those days you don't care a bit
Wake up to feel the pain

Yesterday

Yesterday, I was walking through the clouds
My mind escaped and flew off somewhere else
I can't believe it had left me so soon
That's okay, I just laughed it off
And went back to what I was doing before it took off
With my memories, and all those useless facts I'll never need
Yesterday, I bought a new car
I took it to the beach and drowned it in the sand
I can't believe I had done this to myself
That's okay, I just laughed it off
And I watched as the tide slowly carried it off
With my new subwoofers, and golden plated rims
I would try to chase it, but I never learned how to swim
Yesterday, I was playing in the street
When a bus came speeding by and nearly missed me
I can't believe that it happened so fast
I can't believe I left my life in the past
That's okay, I just cried it off
And went back to playing in the street from where I left off
Before a bus came speeding by and crushed me like a bug

No Reason at all

How can I confess my love
Without sounding soft
There's so much running round in my head
How can I turn it off
Where can I go to think
And throw away all these thoughts
All of this dramatic shit
And i'm trapped inside a metal box
How can I climb up a cliff
Without pushing you off
And if I jump after you
The landing still won't be very soft
I can tell i'm at that point in my life
Where everything goes to fast
I'm trying to enjoy myself
Sometimes it's hard to make the good times last
Maybe all of this is wrong
It's my fault after all
But why else would I make this song
It's better than running my head against the wall
They say I can express myself
But i'm just here for no reason at all
The future isn't looking so bright
Or maybe i'm just out in the night
I just want to sit down and breathe
But with this existential crisis, the only thing I can do think
