i first met you 9 years ago at a punk rock show
we took the bus everywhere but where did you go?
you left me for a fool. what am i supposed to do?
when you come to me at the bar and act like everything is alright.
sitting on a couch snorting us some lines.
talking about the old days drinking cold bud ice.
remember all the pain you once put me through?
knew in that moment i didn't need you in my fucking life.
now who's the fool? biting my lip tattoo.
pulling my hair because she's sad. fucking me because she's mad.

Food Truck Romance

gentle taurus you know i love this.
what used to be forsaken fruit is what i eat to stay alive
because you were the only one, the only one to say the truth.
we all know the one you want the most you can not have,
we all know the one you want is the one you'll probably never have.
but i don't care because i'm on my own now.
i'll secretly crush on you.
hard working and stable. i wish i could provide for you.
but i know you have a plan and i can't get with that.
i just wanna romance you and cuddle and kiss all night.
i wanna cook your dinners and support your dreams.
that's the only dream i have. that's the only dream i have.
one day when it's my time, i'll marry you and we can drive around in your food truck all day.
i love you.

Perfect Lives

my first memory was of me laying in a hospital bed.
hopefully the last will be a few seconds before i'm finally dead.
i'm so sick of living this life.
where's my american dream?
you got ya brain and a dick up your ass, along with your college degree.
uncle sam read me my rights, i'll never be free.
jesus christ, a book of lies throughout history.
rules and regulations to tell me what i have to do.
religions and laws for us all.
i fought the law and of course i lost.
you heard the song so sing along.
some people learn from history, others suffer for centuries
and i don't think anyone is listening to you or me.
take a soldier's life then tell his wife and kid because as far as I'm concerned, no one died for his sins.
as i get by i'll look up in the sky, then i wonder why, why we all have to die.
give me a pencil and paper so i can draw you a picture of you and i living our perfect lives.

i wanna play guitar with you. i wanna lay next to you.
but i can't because you're drifting away.
but i can't because you're drifting away.
i wanna be lip to lip. i wanna rub your hips.
but i can't because you're drifting away.
but i can't because you're drifting away.
remember that time we were sitting on the high school bleachers?
and that's when you said it was over, so i cried and i cried.
because now you've drifted away.
you've always drifted away.
and i cry and i cry.
because now you've drifted away. and i still cry and i cry because now you've drifted away. you've always drifted away.

i'm trying my best i'm giving it a shot
but i can't do this by myself, it's harder than i thought.
i never thought you'll leave me. your feelings were bought
and i donated mine to you, enough is never enough.
now i'm out of breath and now i cannot breathe.
since you took your heat this fish is left to freeze.
i miss what i created, i miss the old thought.
a cold dark room is all that i've got.
i hate the words i choose.
i learned them from years of dysfunctional abuse.
the story in my head is never the truth then i start to get angry.
whole lot of words i should have used but now it doesn't matter because you are calling the cops.
frustration and depression will never stop.

i haven't had much time to fix my head.
sometimes i wish i wouldn't wake up, i'd rather be dead.
haven't been getting much sleep since you left me.
i let my problems get the best of me, why can't you let me be?
i know it's not that hard to give up on me but i know it's not that easy to wanna leave.
i always knew that you'll never understand and i would be the last one to take the final stand.

my life has been just fine without you, without you here.
and i hope yours is doing the same.
make a deal in every situation.
never know who is right.
i'm always wrong and you're always right.
it's no surprise.
