Just Another Weekend

It’s all light till the world goes black and
It’s all gone till you get it back
You’re bombing f’s till I’m taking flack
So you can kick me out like a hackey sack and
I made it clear that I didn’t wanna fight her
She’s a pretty little thing with claws like a tiger
She’ll be bearing arms, dropping nuclear bombs
A trained super soldier with some lipstick on
You hurt my head
Acting like there’s anything to defend
Head high while you play your little game and
It’s all smiles till you’re home in your lonely bed
Take him instead before you throw me off the deep end
And act like it’s just another weekend
Tell yourself that it’s all inside your head
Cuz you like to run from the past, friend
It’s all great till you lose your cool and
It’s all old till there’s something new
You talk your circles make me confused
Tell me to walk a mile in each other’s shoes and
Use my eyes maybe then you’ll see how your every little action makes me incomplete
Shake your little head in your lonely bed
Just wish you took back every word you said

Your eyes are x-rays of
Sound mind extermination
Steer clear of your temptation
My mind’s a sovereign nation
I try to be lucid
But is privacy worth losing
The road we’re on’s abusive
My thoughts are for your choosing
You’re just a reflection
You radiate perplexion
My second life projection
Which brings me to my question
Do you know who you are
You throw your weight around like
You’re dodging speeding cars on a highway and
It makes me think of how far we’ve come since then
Why do I regret this?
With every useless sentence
I am not relentless
I simply sent a message
You murdered the dancer
Just when you dropped the lantern
What are you still here for?
Forgive me for my standards
You ran for help again
To the uncharted land
You smile and wave your hand
You know I can’t reach you

Hand Over The Car

Call me up and you know that I’ll never answer
Cuz I call it your fault every time my head hurts
Guess you thought that you’d never have a son like me
All the days washed away with the useless banter
And you said it was good but I can’t remember
Guess it’s time for me to pack up all my things and leave
But when you look in the mirror and you’re eighteen years old
That’s not the way that story was supposed to go
I think that
It’s useless
I think we shouldn’t backtrack
I think our time is up
And now I
I regret
All the time I just sat back
And watched it all explode
I’ll be back pretty soon why don’t you believe me?
My honesty means nothing, there’s no fun deceiving
Do you smell the lies on my breath?
Pretty soon I’ll be gone for good
But you make the whole damn neighborhood know
That I’m not living your dream
I know that
You think it
It’s best when we’re together
I’m gonna prove you wrong
You know that
I’ll be back
Back home before you know it
So would you let me go?

Hero Boy

He puts on his mask to face the mass and hide his true identity
Cuz what they know from comic books is what they wanna see
What if it kills me?
What would they do?
They never noticed what I got then through
I wore this cape
These stupid shoes
I hid my face when I was on the news
Dust off your shoulders, little hero boy
And you’ll never know the trouble that you caused
Take off your mask if you know what is good for you
And you thought that it was win, win, win
But you were the one to lose it in the end
Another night
These city streets
This symbol on my chest is my prophecy
I had to fight
Till they let me free
I did it all to let the people see
It’s fight of fall, I’ll lose it all
I’ll hit the wall if I don’t stand tall
Just look at me, and try to see
That I’m the one the people need
He can’t save us, he’s just a kid

My girlfriend left me for the cable guy
He came and took her away between one and five
I left ten messages on her phone
All just saying please come home
And all she said was no
Well that’s life
I lost my job at the electric company
And then my dog got hit by an SUV
The little mutt was not too bright
And the soccer mom blew him out of sight
Now he’s barking at the light
Well that’s life
And I’m starting to think, it’s not so bad
But the story won’t move along till I turn the page
You gotta pick yourself up, and brush off the dust
And figure out just what you want and go get it!
Cuz life goes on
Finally standing on my own two feet again
Gonna get my life in check and go back to the gym
But the treadmill broke and put me on my ass
And just then my ex came walking past
I said damn, well I guess that’s life
If we could stand a little taller
Keep our heads above the water
Tell ourselves that by tomorrow
We’ll be fine, fine, fine
Just keep livin and taking what you’re given
I hope this makes you feel alright
Just keep livin and taking what you’re given
I hope this gets you through the night!
