Be Cool (Bed Track)

it's fine with me
it doesn't matter what we do
we can stay
we can leave
we can drive off black and blue
cause all I wanna do
is be with you
yeah, all I wanna do
is be cool
I laugh too much
when I really probably should
just shut up and cry
sometimes
just a little bit
sometimes
but I stay in my mind
and run away
yeah, I stay in my mind
and go insane
cause I'm dumb enough
and I'm tough
enough
to wear these cuffs
and chains
you're like a summer day
that takes my breathe away
so hot
and cruel
it doesn't matter
what you do
you know I'll always be your fool
don't go away
yeah, all I wanna do
is be with you

I don't know much
but have much
to say
and I don't think it through
boney hands held out
for offering
crushed beneath my boot
it's what I do
no one cares, it just
goes away
lies dead behind the truth
say what you want
that's your liberty
but better think it through
cause I
watching you
the rhythm and force
pushing it back again
fighting in lines at the mall
these tiny roaches
want everything
send them all to the wall
it's what I want
for you
what I want
for you
what I want for you
what I want
tell them all that
I'm not afraid
and I will be there
soon
I don't know much
but I'd rather die
than give anything
to you
Cause I
Own you,
-American Tyrant

caught in the headlights of despair
caught in the headlights of despair
well you know that life's not fair
no it ain't
caught in the headlights of despair
and they will lead you to see things
that aren't really there
god I know that god don't care (lol)
no he don't
and if I had a nickel for everyday
that someone lied and told me
it'll be ok
then I would take those nickels to the bank
and I'd buy myself a new life and fate
but I'm caught in the headlights of despair
I'm still caught in the headlights of despair
god I know that life's not fair
no it ain't

you're so full of shit
that you may not even know
you're so full of shit
well, just in case
you didn't even know
your advice
your advice
was wrong
and I think that you know
I think that all this is just
a show
you printed out your jokes
for us
what a ride
what a riot
you're so full of shit
and I am through
I'm climbing out of my pit
to say fuckyou
and I'm done with it
I think I don't even care
cause you're so full of shit
it's like I'm not even there
in your arms
tell me lies
till I don't realize
that I'm full of shit
yeah I'm full of shit
I'm full of shit
I'm full of shit

All Good (Bed Track)
02:46

If I could take all my money
and give it all to you
you know, I could
but that would leave me hungry
and I don't think that I'd find you
in this hood
but you know
it's all good
if I could take all my heartache
and give it all to you
you know, I would
but that would make me half insane
and I so misunderstand misunderstood
but you know
it's all good
let it be
as it should
like fire in the night
with its heartbeat still
in a great dead light
and if I could take a few memories
and tear them out like pages from a book
and dig a hole in my back yard
and bury them all deep beneath a stone
that says
you know
it was all
oh yeah, you know
it was all
good

Burnout (Bed Track)

remember the party when you were a kid
when little old faceless broke out of his head
the normal kids were the ones with the phones
but we were the kidz who did not give a fuck
cause we don't
and we won't
a normal Friday, get high as a loon
after working all night in a drive thru loop
it's never the same, but always for the best
cause it's never the same, cause I'm usually
so mad
and so sad
it's alright
goodnight
let's get high
let's get high
till I don't care
yo I don't care
remember the daze when we all were so young
before the little old lives that we lived, they were hung
it never occurs til its been long gone
how something so fast would take so long
but they lied
hey, we tried
but they lie
so do I
let's get high
till I'm not there
till I'm not there

and don't tell lies
with your heart or your mind
and keep track of time
or we'll lose you
and don't stay mad
let the past be the past
just don't stick around
when it's over
cause life on a chain
it ain't very tame
and on the day that it breaks
you will lose
yourself
and fuck the culture war
don't let them control
your heart
cause they don't believe
and they'll use you
and don't worry with love
no, it's mostly a word
we made up
but you can pretend
that it's real
and use it
more than I did
I just thought I should say
cause I'll be asleep
someday
and I want you to know
that I love you
every breath
every beat in your chest
every smile
even when you're upset
I am sorry
for the world
I'm sorry
for the past
but you're
still beautiful
in your gas mask

Popsong (B-Side)
17:27

here it is, get it quick
reach your hands, before it's gone
oh god, it's gone
then it comes again
in man minutes
fragments of sentimental thoughts
here's your fucking popsong
it's a brand new song
it's your favorite song
here's your fucking popsong
it's your favorite song
come on sing a-long
and it comes, and it goes
and it leaves, with everything
and it flies, so high
and away, from everything
you know
from everything you know
here's your fucking popsong
here's your fucking popsong
waiting on everything
makes me tired and dizzy
thinking all the time
that maybe I'm not right
and maybe I'm not strong enough
to sing with myself
and here I am regretting
all this shit, it's not worth forgetting
but then I
hear my fucking popsong
it's a brand new song
it's my favorite song
hear my fucking popsong
it's my favorite song
and I sing a-long
here's your fucking popsong
(x's forever)
