I see your dull eyes peering through
The cracks in my door to my under heated living room
I would invite you in but I'm scared it would be far to cold in here
We're old and were getting older
And I get scared every time you say I'm right
That means next time I'll be wrong and I'll fall apart
Id say I'm done making excuses
But I know I avoid these situations like the plauge
My room is constantly a mess so you can't stay over
I fear the beer cans are taking away all my time
You stick to me like the tar on a freshly paved road
Black and cancerous and I'm weak and fearful
Of the things that don't make sense like outer space
And smoking cigarettes and finally I feel like maybe I'll be alright

My Shins Hurt Still

I look in the mirror bitter laughter racks my fragile lungs
I can't shake this feeling that I've found something to hold on to
And your face is missed in the mornings
Your face is missed whenever I feel blue
This is the feeling I got when I was so much younger
And I trudged knee deep through all of calgary's cocaine snow
And all I know is that I've found something to special
So don't ruin it with my worrying about things I can't control
I'm tired of wishing
That this world was never born
I'm sick of waking every morning
Feeling sick and insecure like the padlock to your broken home
She gives me hope she gives me hope
And I miss her more than you can ever know
I feel sick and insecure like the padlock to your broken home

I don't find it hard to fuck up
I'll be in the bathroom yelling at myself in the mirror
Fighting with my brain just sucks
Takes all of my time and energy just to stay happy
I don't find it hard to get drunk
I don't think it's a problem just a staple to have empty cans
I think we're shit out of luck
A piece of me goes with the garbage man every tuesday
I'm so anxious I should probably have more coffee
Or a couple beers and cigarettes
Inching myself closer to my death
My head can't take these problems
I've been a sleep since mid July
This fucking shit is pointless
I'm caught up in the tide
I'm so anxious I should probably have more coffee
Or a couple beers and cigarettes
Inching myself closer to my death

Pull your heart strings wide apart so you can start to feel something
I'm already a lost fucking cause in my bedroom doing nothing
I love you more than I love coffee in the morning
I love you more than I loved cigarettes when I was 18
I'm still dumb with a little less patience and heavy darkened lungs
I can't stop sleeping in late and spending income that I don't have
Nor do I need cause I'm in love
And my arms finally stopped bleeding
Pull your heart strings wide apart so you can start to feel something
I'm already a lost fucking cause in my bedroom doing nothing

Tell me tell me what you feel tell me how to
break my pattern of smoking weed every night
Just so I can fall asleep
Help me see everything the way that you do
Cause you seem happy and I just want to feel the same
Tell me how to leave my bed before one in the afternoon
My brain's getting smaller and movement's getting harder and I feel sick all of the time
Help me from my own damn problems I care for everyone but sometimes I'm just not certain what the fuck I'm doing here
This kind of weather makes me want to pick up smoking so I can smell like shit and no one will talk to me
Walk in circles for a couple years pretend that I'm an artist and let my confidence cover all my fears
This kind of weather sad and anxious worried and sick so ill get stoned
And put off all my problems for another few hours

I am getting scared that everything you say is air
And is you're conscience really there
This is unfair, beware
I am in my head and she says
It's no big deal this pain is real
And I am certain what I feel is to far gone
I think I need to be stronger for the both us
And she says you're doing enough but this still hurts
I scream in my pillow and screams back all these violent remedies
I want to be stronger but I'm sad

Everything is okay
Everything is alright
Everything is swell
Everything is tight
I get so high that I fall over most every single night
Like beer soaked Jenga pieces I'm as stupid at 35 to midnight
Now everything sucks
Everything's silly
Everything is low
And I am pissed right off
My anxiety makes me hyper ventilate
But that's okay because I truly need the oxygen
I am sad
And you should be mad at me
I've written pages upon pages of apologies
I am sad
So is everyone else
If everyone around me died would it make it easier to say
Goodbye

I wish you would just leave me alone
And I wish I could afford my own damn home
But I can't and I never will
every time that I stand still
I think of you so now I stand here doing nothing but huffing glue
I wish you would be nicer to me and I'd be nicer to you you'll see
American football is a band and not something to watch on tv
Thats okay I know you strongly disagree
And I miss myself so much that I will never be happy
