Sharks in the Bathtub
04:43
|
|||
I wake up on the same goddamn couch
To the smell of stale beer
and the taste of ash in my mouth
All this place has ever given me was doubt
Full of people and opinions
I’d be better off without
Why the hell am I still here
To never get out would be my biggest fear
And if I die here then surely I’ll have fucked up
‘Cause we are sharks and this is a fucking bathtub
Got a constant sinking feeling
It’ll be the same until we die
We turn too familiar substances
Every weekend of our lives
Know that it’s a problem
The only solution we can find
We make friends with habit
and enemies of time
Why the hell am I still here
To never get out would be my biggest fear
And if I die here then surely I’ll have fucked up
‘Cause we are sharks and this is a fucking bathtub
Where nothing changes
It’ll only age us
Where we won’t grow
We’ll just grow old
Told myself a hundred times I need to turn my shit around
Pull myself together
Get the fuck out of this town
‘Cause everyone wants out
but no-one seems to leave
And I sure as hell won't
Why the hell am I still here
To never get out would be my biggest fear
And if I die here then surely I’ll have fucked up
‘Cause we are sharks and this is a fucking bathtub

Here on the Ground
03:30
|

Those shining lights that always drag us in
Don’t think these walls can talk, pretty sure they can sing
These some old streets and these street light stars
Remind us exactly where we are
We’ll get together and we’ll get a drink
Second nature so we don’t have to think
Knowing us we won’t let it stop there
We don’t care how, we sure don’t know where
We’ll look for stars here on the ground
The ones in the sky are nowhere to be found
The city glow has destroyed our view
But I’ll keep searching while I’m down here with you
I wake up still thinking of you
Not quite sure where I’ve just come to
I hit the streets of this now stranger city
The streets are filled but may as well be empty
And I can still so clearly see your face
We’d still been talking past the start of the day
I commit it to memory
As all the others fade away
We’ll look for stars here on the ground
The ones in the sky are nowhere to be found
The city glow has destroyed our view
But I’ll keep searching while I’m down here with you
We walk bridges we’ll cross train tracks
We won’t let distance hold us back
We’ll find somewhere we feel we belong
These nights all end before too long
We’ll look for stars here on the ground
The ones in the sky are nowhere to be found
The city glow has destroyed our view
But I’ll keep searching while I’m down here with you
We’ll change cities and we’ll change towns
I know I can’t always have you around
But I know I’ll still see you somewhere
Happy just knowing that you’re out there

Swallow
04:14
|
|||
I don’t know who the fuck you are
The liars with the promises that they’re the ones who care
And we might swallow that if it was brightly coloured
Our solution to the fact that we feel totally ignored
As we come to terms with that we’ve got no futures
While the ones without a voice are those dying to be heard
Whoever you represent I’ve never met
And maybe the system works
But I sure as hell don’t
Struggling with my self worth
Hoping someday that I won’t
And it weighs down on us
These futures of uncertainty
Not sure what matters most
Doesn’t seem like you or me
And we might swallow that if it was brightly coloured
Our solution to the fact that we feel totally ignored
As we come to terms with that we’ve got no futures
While the ones without a voice are those dying to be heard
Whoever you represent I’ve never met
And if you can’t do a thing for us
Then how about the planet
Because at the very least
You’re also gonna need it
Show us you can give a damn
That you could grow a spine
Do something while you can
Before we all run out of time
And we might swallow that if it was brightly coloured
Our solution to the fact that we feel totally ignored
As we come to terms with that we’ve got no futures
While the ones without a voice are those dying to be heard
Whoever you represent I’ve never met
Guess I should be thankful
That we’re so fucking free
Free to take our own lives
or lie dying in the streets
And everything we have
Just leaves us feeling empty
So we’ll search for happiness
Where they never told us it would be
And we might swallow that if it was brightly coloured
Our solution to the fact that we feel totally ignored
As we come to terms with that we’ve got no futures
While the ones without a voice are those dying to be heard
Whoever you represent I’ve never met

Jaded
03:58
|
|||
I’ve realised
I’ll be there for you until the day I die
Any time of day or the middle of the night
No doubt in my mind
No maybe or might
You help me feel not so jaded
Less annoyed at the world and how I can’t change it
You notice all the little things
I expect nobody to
And that means so damn much to me
This one's for you
You remind me why I shouldn’t have these doubts
You’re the reason that there is so much love in this house
I’m so grateful that I have you around
And so lucky to have this family we’ve found
You help me feel not so jaded
Less annoyed at the world and how I can’t change it
You notice all the little things
I expect nobody to
And that means so damn much to me
This one's for you
And all your precious little notes
You leave for me help me find hope
When I feel frayed like some old rope
I’ll reread them to help me cope
You help me feel not so jaded
Less annoyed at the world and how I can’t change it
You notice all the little things
I expect nobody to
And that means so damn much to me

mess
01:14
|
|||
I’m such a fucking mess
Going out of my own head
Tell myself I do my best
But then I look to my friends
And realise I hope the know
how much they mean to me
And the make me want to become
the best that I can be
Then I think of why we’re here and why everything exists
Feelings of constant fear yet no matter I persist
To fuck myself at every turn
Not sure when I’ll ever learn
Get fucked up when I know I shouldn't
My time is nothing if not misspent
But I know I wouldn’t change a thing if I somehow got the chance
And if I have learned anything it’s to not repeat my past
But most of all it’s that I’m still a mess

Cheap Beers
03:02
|
|||
I’ll go grab some dirt cheap beers
and party every night just to see you
No-one gets into my head
Quite the way that you do
You’re good to be around
Remind me I’ll turn out okay
As we hid in your room
Safe from the light of day
I’ll go grab some dirt cheap beers
and party every night just to see you
No-one gets into my head
Quite the way that you do
We both said things we shouldn’t under
the influence but now we can’t remember
Memories that are victims of the alcohol,
Moments shared never happened at all
I’ll go grab some dirt cheap beers
and party every night just to see you
No-one gets into my head
Quite the way that you do
We don’t care when we get to bed
We don’t care where we lay our heads
With promises that we can’t keep
Made before we drift off to sleep
I’ll go grab some dirt cheap beers
and party every night just to see you
No-one gets into my head
Quite the way that you do
