(Verse) Where were you on the 1st of October When Morrissey was lecturing of the Queen Spinning memories like our life is over You break a lot of hearts for nights on your knees (Chorus) Those other girls are cool and cunning But they always break my heart honey And falling over head/the stars that wish us to bed Remain my favourite company (Verse 2) We don't have the pride and everyone has spoken Falling short of every dream we believe There I was thinking you were so faithful Now I know that our time wasn't free (Bridge) Every body's lost in their same old prayer I'm just happy because now you're right there I don't wanna hear your fall back down

Big brother there's no war on you Hold on tight and we can see it through Count to ten, with zero from the heart Drinking Coffee and talking about art Open up is a wonderful day There's no spaceship to take us away Fall apart/in the morning Glued by 1PM, cracks are showing There's a smile around the bend. We never had the time to feel homely But out in the streets we had control Devastated our mother would be If she saw us up here at all. No such thing as a happy ending Just the trouble that comes with the fall Around the bend, we saw our friends Digging holes in the dirt & say its from the earth Catching rides on top of a hearse Smoking joints out in the heat That's one way to keep off your feet.

I'll stand here in this kitchen with a move tonight I made you a dinner and I hope its alright I'll apologize over mac & cheese and some wine. Go light up your cigarette and hear me confess, I never loved anyone so much in that dress It swings at your hips and I'm paralyzed on sight. Shall we put on some records and yell, The Gaslight Anthem taught us so well So shake senora, shake for me tonight yes all right Now that we're buzzed and the sun has set The pain of my soul and our hearts a wreck Lets take it easy, tell me you missed me am I right? Tell me i'm drunk and I don't mean what I say My actions speak louder, what a cliche Let's take another spin around my living room, what do ya say? Shall we put on some records and yell, The Gaslight Anthem taught us so well So shake senora, shake for me tonight yes alright.

How many times were you late before, Do you see how this goes? Falling off just to feel the floor Taking turns around we go. Nothing here that we can't replace Even hearts we don't own. Take a lampshade we'll all find away, To bring out struggles and praise How can you tell if we have time to stay The clocks have stopped for today But I hate every minute of the day. There arent words that can take the place But I'll try anyway. Big mistake in the smallest phrase, juxtaposed with a little shame. There's no forgiveness you can give me now, Send it back with all the rage.

Hello, Duck 03:24
Oh wait, don't go/ I've got my head down and its cold. With a bottle of red in my left/ A lit camel blue in the right. Oh wait, don't go/ I shoulda said a thousand times. But I was lost in my head/ its a wonder I ain't dead. You kept me out of my mind. but wait, don't go/ If I may be so bold. I knew it was love by the bright salad wall Holding hand buddies, your eye shadow's funny We knew it was great watching Seinfeld at 8 But my heart is broken and I made it that way. It's funny how this night moves/ The shadows on the wall dance like you. Crazy at first, steady at last/ You put a candle on my broken tomb. Don't wait, just go/ It's my fault you walked out the door. If I could do it all again I'd leave all my friends and never have to write these songs. Oh wait I've gotta go you never felt the same I don't feel comfortable just staying in one place. These bottles are all empty, patience running thin. I'm so sick of sacrifices you never wanna bend Hearts are like broken limbs and some how they'll mend. I knew it was love by the bright salad wall Holding hand buddies my eye shadow's funny We knew it was great watching Seinfeld at 8 But my heart is broken and you made it that way.

We get loaded, feel unbroken. Hands up on your chest, trusting in a sense And we know, this is home. Where is home? Stolen moments in a headlight romance. Calling all our sins, in search of decadence and we flow unopposed, in a pose. And we can't stand the light when we're dreaming so tight We freeze on the spot, just aching to rot. And we go on our own but there's nobody home. Fairytale's don't grow on your street. We can scream aloud Neighbors pounding sound and we hold up the walls with our paws. Sandinista, caffeine hang ups. Mozart for The Clash. Crash without a splash. We throw out the rose, is this prose? Dreaming so tight Reaching for right Can't find the way to make us stay Maybe we've grown? We've grown. And we can't stand the light when we're dreaming so tight We freeze on the spot, just aching to rot. And we go on our own but there's nobody home.

Stepping outside in the rain Dancing like we wanted to. And I think we're cut from the same Bar towel we always knew. Some day we'll act our age If this gutter tells us to. Youth doesn't last forever And time just fills with the pain. Of missing folks, surviving and broke But we're tied to their name. Everybody wants to stay Caught up in every move. But I watch us far away in memories that never sway. I dont wanna figure out, I never should have let me down. Youth doesn't last forever And time just fills with the pain. Of missing folks, surviving and broke But we're tied to their name. When my mother lays me to sleep, my brother always near. He doesn't feel my rage, just like my daddy says. Momma don't be afraid, cuz brother's gonna come today. Youth doesn't last forever And time just fills with the pain. Of missing folks, surviving and broke But we're tied to their name.
