1.	What A Waste 02:02	lyrics	buy track
So take your pills and fall in line You're just a waste of time Fall behind and don't think twice Just let life pass you by What am I supposed to do without you? What am I supposed to say when they take you away? Turtle in it's shell all day Won't come out to play Sits and decays Will it ever be enough to hear someone else than yourself?
2.	How Do You Cook Your Fries? 03:42	lyrics	buy track
You're in a room of twenty-two But in your head it's only you You pray to God that it gets better I'm tired of this fucked up weather Rainy days and rusty nights I hope we don't get in a fight You pray to God that it gets better I'm tired of this fucked up weather Can I say, I don't know where I'm gonna go? I know you, I need to find me Can I say again, I don't know where or when? I want you Do you really want me? Can I say, that I'm happy when I'm sad? You say I look like my dad Useless nights and lousy days When will all these bad thoughts fade? Away just for a sec or two I feel like I am losing you

4.	I Was A Teenage Spy 03:23	lyrics	buy track
I wanna go back in time Not to change what I got, but to change who I was 'Cause I broke your heart that one night Now I'm gonna take my chance, and take a leap of faith All the things that I said Sitting there on your bed And all the things that I'd see See you like you saw me You went down a different road You said that you couldn't put your life on hold 'Cause I broke your heart that one night Now I'm gonna take my chance Take a leap of faith All the things that I said, put those thoughts in your head And all the things that I'd see See you like you saw me
5.	Wendy Peffercorn 00:54	lyrics	buy track
Sit up on your tower Everyone sees you, but you see me They all think I'm crazy for what I'm about to do I don't wanna grow up, I just wanna throw up Today was the day that I would kiss you, and make you mine They all think I'm crazy for what I did I don't wanna grow up, I just wanna throw up
6.	Rugburn 01:36	lyrics	buy track
What are those secrets locked in key? Those secrets that you kept from me I never thought you would, I never thought you could Seeping through cracks and under doors Oh God, please don't tell me no more I never thought you would, I never thought you could Cant get away Won't go away
7.	This Song Is About You 02:28	lyrics	buy track
Just bite your tongue Push it out just past the teeth, and bite down Shave half your head The scene is dead And run away, no plans ahead Flip it around, turn it sideways upside down Another wasted shot Just figure it out You left while pushing through the crowd It wasn't safe enough And I know you'll figure it out It's not that fun when it's about you
8.	Who's Your Favorite Serial Killer? 02:51	lyrics	buy track
Fake smiles and empty "Hey"s I'm here hating the days Worst part of the year, so sick of shitty beer Tried not to make all the waves I'm stuck in a maze Had to learn to surf, I'm always kicked to the curb And now I gotta see it again, how it's always been Never crossed a line but still wasting my time You can tell me when Back to where I've been I want it all to end It's happening again
9.	I'm Not Your Favorite 01:13	lyrics	buy track
You're never wrong in your mistakes You never stop, makes my head ache Do you see the words coming out your mouth? Never change a thing you just leave the house Bury all your problems like they're not there So when are things getting better? You just don't care I can't talk to you, so here's a clue Don't wanna go through my life without you We fight like common enemies Your nose so high, you can't look at me, you don't care I just don't care
10.	Fallout 03:42	lyrics	buy track
I tried talking to your ghost late last night As usual you had nothing to say Gone without a flash or even a bang Never thought I'd have to say goodbye this way I'm feeling dangerous, don't call me on my phone now Don't call me Cleaned up all the blood with out a second thought Never once did they think that they'd ever get caught I tried talking to your ghost late last night As usual I had nothing to say
11.	You're Talking To A Broke Ass Kid 02:48	lyrics	buy track
Coincidentally in your mind You're out of space and out of time No repercussions for your thoughts Your dirty deeds you won't get caught If you just had one day to repay what you did, what would you do? You're in my way Goddamnit, kid If you just had one day to repay what you took, what would you do? Believe in fear, and not in faith Believing that you won't get saved What would you do?
12.	Drop Dead 03:06	lyrics	buy track
Give me the keys to the car, we'll go so far I know what you're thinking We'll get rid of our fears, no one will hear I know what you're thinking Do you lay awake at night wondering what went wrong? Does it keep you up at night? Does it make you wanna change your mind? So deep and far away, what can I say? I know what you're thinking Oh, who am I kidding? Slumped down and put on repeat, six days now with out any sleep Was it ever just enough? Always fret on the small stuff We're doing alright
13.	Tidal Wave 03:33	lyrics	buy track
What I gotta do to get in your mind? What I gotta say to spend some time? Should I pack my shit and drive away? Memories gone, they all faded away What I gotta do to get in your mind? Embarrassing is not what I would use I guess I got used to me and you Two little words, don't mean a thing anymore There goes our love, it's on the hall floor What am I supposed to do without you? We're going through a tidal wave We're going through a wave
14.	Goodbye 00:53	lyrics	buy track
I miss the way you held me, when I would cry I dread the day I had to say that you died Ceramic roosters, empty house Should I even try? Now you're gone
15.	Adiós 03:04	lyrics	buy track
I miss the sound of your voice I miss the smell of your hair, it's been awhile The day it took its toll The pain it will never dull, it's been a while You lie there so peaceful I'll be there in a while I sit by the old oak tree Wish you were here with me, it's been a while I see you in their eyes In our old room I always cry
