Got a lot of empty feelings
Got a lot of hollow drive
I don't know
Where this goes
Tied up to expectations
Being pulled along as they go
I've got no control
Lost in the flow

Burnt out from confrontation
Spent too much time angry
Any feelings left
Tur

As time goes on
We talk
I feel more out of place
You are not the same friend I met
But you're the same face
How could I ever predict
Things would develop like this
More and more I'm getting the feeling that...

Something is wrong
Good intentions are gone

You can't try hard enough
To shake the feeling
Like you've fucked things up
Cool it down, kid, you talk too much

Loosened up and tried some luck
Now it's too deep to dig out of this funk
Can't shake the feeling
Can't give it up
Can't fake the reasons
To stic

Sometimes
I'd rather spend my time with someone else
In better health
Sometimes I think
In my mind I just feel like I am dying
Maybe I'm trying
Maybe I'm right
We are not alright
Better off just being ok
More or less is too much stress these days
I'll stay

Drive a little bit slow
Talk a little bit lower
Smile a little bit softer
Bring everything that you have to offer

Make tonight feel like the first night we met
There won't be any left
Last call last chance
It's all over, come 6am - we'll be alone again

I've trapped myself again
made another mistake I don't want to face
so I sit and stare doing all that I can
to keep from fevering
but I just sit and obsess...
I just sit and obsess...
I just sit and obsess...
like a forest on fire - burn till everything's dead

I have dreams
like a desert has trees
ten thousand miles, ten thousand nights
it's guaranteed
no matter how far between
you're the only face I see
you're the only reason I can't sleep

your name in lights
breaks through the night
it shakes and rattles announc

I get up
No i don't know why
I've got something to be
I can't see
I don't care
What you think of me
Because each day it seems
Somebody tells me i'm wrong

But they don't know
Where i've been
Or what i've done

My friend rich
The best heart i know

I wrote some words
About a girl I met when I was sixteen
She don't mean all the much to me these days
Still I keep memories inside my head, inside my heart
I take them with me
I leave her all alone
To her own devices
Cigarettes and alcohol
And books about lost boy

Keep it loud
The silence just reminds us
That there's nothing left to say
We talked and laughed remembering
"the way things used to be"
But there's nothing like the feeling
That we lost when we grew old
And tired of each other

So we sing.
Scream it so loud

I hate my voice
my skin and my mind
it's like there's always a fight
between the things I think and I feel
when I know that sometimes
the words that come out of my mouth
they just aren't right
I want to start new again

the wool is over my eyes
i'm in denial,

I ' m s o t i r e d . . .
A lyric sung by every band I've ever loved
And every friend I've ever lost
To work
To sleep
To dreams risen far out of reach
And guarded by the lives we try to keep
Why do we do this to ourselves?
How can we break this spell?
You know

When we both get what we wanted
You'll take the goods and run
I'll just stand there and I'll look dumb
You know it's always the same thing
We both got what we wanted
You took the goods and ran away
Running off to some northern state
You're always going away

You'
