Am I the only one?
Can't sit still for too long
Small fry, bug-eyed
Is anyone in here alive?
Got sent to therapy
When I was just fourteen
Distracted, short-tempered
Handed a pack of downers
When I go to sleep I grind my teeth
Can't stop my feet, anxiety
Pace back and forth, try to ignore
Just like I did the night before
Am I an alien?
Who's failing to blend in
Loud-mouthed, annoying
The other kids avoiding
A loner malcontent
Trying to not be different
Got a mouthful of Adderall
Diagnosis suicidal
When I go to sleep I grind my teeth
Can't stop my feet, anxiety
Pace back and forth, try to ignore
Just like I did the night before
When I go to sleep, I grind my teeth
Can't stop my feet, anxiety
Pace back and forth, try to ignore
Just like I did the night before
When I go to sleep I grind my teeth (Just like we all were)
When I go to sleep I grind my teeth (Medicated, least that's what they said)

This is an intervention
With only the best intentions
So don't ditch the lecture to chase after her
She'll make an ass out of you again
You know she's got a boyfriend
Getting annoyed and this is your warning
So get out with some pride
She's a waste of time you'll never get inside
So stop pretending, no more whining
She knows exactly what she's doing
So quit complaining and cut the crap
You know you're not the first and won't be the last
Don't waste your time and breath, all she takes from you
While you buy her drinks and hold her shoes
She's not coming around to your sorry ass
You know you're not the first and won't be the
So, tell me
Every time she turns you down
What makes you come back around?
Does it even hurt? All you do for her?
She bails when Moustache finishes work
It's so fucking pathetic, do you even regret it?
Alone on Friday night eating leftover Spaghetti
Without you on her mind, she has the best fucking time
You are just her little something on the side
So stop pretending, no more whining
She knows exactly what she's doing
So quit complaining and cut the crap
You know you're not the first and won't be the last
Don't waste your time and breath, all she takes from you
While you buy her drinks and hold her shoes
She's not coming around to your sorry ass
You know you're not the first and won't be the
Don't get defensive, get defensive like you always do
I've said a thousand times we're only looking out for you
I know you say she's the only girl on your mind
But we're telling you she's just a fucking parasite
Don't get defensive, get defensive like you always do
I've said a thousand times we're only looking out for you
I know you say she's the only girl on your mind
Well you're just, well you're just, well you're just, well you're just
Her little something on the side
So stop pretending, no more whining
She knows exactly what she's doing
So quit complaining and cut the crap
You know you're not the first and won't be the last
Don't waste your time and breath, all she takes from you
While you buy her drinks and hold her shoes
She's not coming around to your sorry ass
You know you're not the first and won't be the

I confide eyes are rolling
Keep that gaslight shining
Just call me when you get home
She said look who you became
Over one little mistake
She said people grow and people change
A leap of faith I can't escape
I'm on, I'm on, I'm on, I'm on the way home
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing but dial tone
You there? You there? You there? You there? I'm here now
Pick up, pick up, pick up, pick up I freak out
Holly Holly look what you've done to me
I can't see, I can't breathe
Please cut deep my envy
I'm pleading for your mercy, God
In the coat room hiding
Are those white lies smiling?
You thought we were on a break
Said "You are so insecure forget it"
"It was just casual" Yeah I get it
I guess we'll agree to disagree
Patch it up with make-believe
I'm on, I'm on, I'm on, I'm on the way home
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing but dial tone
You there? You there? You there? You there? I've had it
Pick up, pick up, pick up, pick up I panic
Holly Holly look what you've done to me
I can't see, I can't breathe
Please cut deep my envy
I'm pleading for your mercy
Holly Holly
Holly Holly
Holly Holly
Holly Holly
Lord spare us these night terrors, I'm only a human error
Lord spare us these night terrors, I'm only a human error
Lord spare us these night terrors, I'm only a human error
Lord spare us these night terrors, I'm only a human error

Please don't talk with your mouth full
Who's turn for chores? Who'd I fall for?
Oh, I'm immature?
What happens when the flames turn to flickers?
Romantic gestures to bickers?
Don't know who you are anymore
We can't ignore
The honeymoon phase is over
And the Oscar goes to who?
Lazy me or faker you?
The shades closed off, the lights dimmed low
I'm watching Dune, she's on her phone
Taking the time to figure myself out
Playing single-player on the couch
Rather order in than eat out
She said "Uh-huh that checks out"
We used to be at it like rabbits
From the floor to the cabinets, the garden, the attic
Like who needs a mattress?
Now she's go-go gadget with the attachments
12 inches, oh shit
And the Oscar goes to who?
Lazy me or faker you?
The shades closed off, the lights dimmed low
I'm watching Dune, she's on her phone
Maybe there's romance in sweatpants
Arby's and HBO Max
No rose-colored glasses on
I think our rom-com's long gone
And the Oscar goes to who?
Lazy me or faker you? (We need a restart)
The shades closed off, the lights dimmed low
I'm watching Dune, she's on her phone (Missing the best part)
You're missing the best part come on

Jekyll or Hyde
03:15

Don't think I'm too stupid to spot the tension
A brooding obsession
Heard you tried to slide into her DMs
That's my girl, what the fuck? You're in love? Are you nuts?
Oh, you were wasted? I guess let's pretend nothing happened
To my ill-intentioned ex-best friend
Every time that I scratch your back you stab mine
I still can't tell if you're Jekyll or Hyde
Why with your good looks and plain dumb luck
Any other girl isn't good enough?
Last Friday night you crossed a line
Into a cross-haired sight
Watching you try to make your move
When you were hurt I was there, had your back, said a prayer
And after everything we've been through, I see through you
Your excuses useless
Abandoned, hopeless, fuck you
Every time that I scratch your back you stab mine
I still can't tell if you're Jekyll or Hyde
Why with your good looks and plain dumb luck
Any other girl isn't good enough?
When you heard I found out I ignored the call
Just like I'll do to the one for your funeral
When you drink your brain to an early grave
And won't remember your own name
I hope it hurts, and I hope that you're proud
Of all you fucked up, it's all over now
Our rivalry since 17
Every time that I scratch your back you stab mine
I still can't tell if you're Jekyll or Hyde
Why with your good looks and plain dumb luck
Any other girl isn't good enough?

Sober thoughts buried deep
In our hearts, while she sleeps
At the party, I saw her face
My conscience slipped away
Thin walls, unlocked door
Our fate for better or worse
All over me, lost in your gravity
Whispering, we can't tell Holly
In the morning
We knew we fucked up for sure
And didn't speak a word
You've seen me at my worst
When coming to you for
A helping hand
This wasn't just an act of revenge
So don't feel guilty, we won't tell Holly
Going nowhere in your car
Counting all the shooting stars
Wishing somehow she'll be alright
Our last chance I can't ignore
So, well? What are we waiting for?
Who knows what we'll be when the weekend's over
Going nowhere in your car
Counting all the shooting stars
Wishing somehow she'll be alright
Our last chance I can't ignore
So, well? What are we waiting for?
Who knows what we'll be when the weekend's over

Mathew

I remember the day of the wake
The coolest kid with the palest face
Blurry cue cards with words erased
Breaking voice and violent shakes
Wiped my tears and hugged your mom
Before the longest bike home
And summer locked in my room
We miss you, we miss you, we miss you, we miss you
Midnight drinking behind our old high school
Looks like we can't move on without you
When the future is cruel
We miss you, we miss you, we miss you, we miss you
The shadows move in strange ways
I've been sitting here for days
Staring into space
We miss you, we miss you, we miss you, we miss you
We put flowers on the site of the wreck
Wait for God to make sense of this mess
Sometimes I wake up in a cold sweat
Pretend nothing happened
You are still at the skate park, working on stand up
Chip on your shoulder, fight with your brother
Still dating Ashley and skipping class
We are in the back seat, you're driving fast
Our masterplan, the riverside
Steal liquor and stay out all night
Happiest Kids, the world was wide
Our dreams were big, your future bright
Midnight drinking behind our old high school
Looks like we can't move on without you
When the future is cruel
We miss you, we miss you, we miss you, we miss you
The shadows move in strange ways
I've been sitting here for days
Staring into space
We miss you, we miss you, we miss you, we miss you
Like the bottles cast to the shoreline
Or the ashes after the bonfires
Remnants of moments that mattered
We miss you, we miss you, we miss you, we miss you
For your memory in our heart
With the glass kept in your spot
A toast to the friend that we've lost
To Mathew, we miss you, we miss you, we miss you
We miss you, we miss you, we miss you, we miss you
We miss you, we miss you, we miss you, we miss you

Lucky Guy

We met through a mutual friend
After one conversation
She saw who I am
A drop-out with no plan
A loser not fitting in
Probably should have ran
She didn't stick up her nose
We talked but never got close
It's just a moment that shows
One of life's little knacks
Reminding you to look back
On what you'll never have
'Cause she's got plans, people to meet
I've got time to kill and a couch to sleep
Dreaming of what will never be
She deserves much more than me
Whoever I pretend to be
On the last bus back to reality
If I could turn it around
Get a job or my band off the ground
Clean up and put the pills down
Maybe I could get her attention
As someone more than a friend
Just anything good enough
But is it all a lost cause?
To try forget who I was?
Another story of a hopeless underdog
Maybe it's just destiny
She'll be a writer, and me
Lucky to amount to anything
She's got plans, people to meet
I've got time to kill and a couch to sleep
Dreaming of what will never be
She deserves much more than me
Whoever I pretend to be
On the last bus back to reality
She's got plans, a name to make
I've got a guitar and a life to waste
Singing about heartbreak
I don't wanna take her time
So this goes out to the lucky guy
I hope you'll treat her right
I hope you'll treat her right

You were the lion of our pride
On and off since I was nine
If you only knew
Everything me and my sister went through
During your mid-life crisis
Ditched my Mom when she was depressed
No help, hopeless
And left to fend for ourselves
Back again, said you made a mistake
Always such a fucking cliché
Nothing you've said explains
Why all of a sudden your spine is missing
What's made you so soft?
Friday night soaps or Sunday golf?
Seeing me you're probably wondering
Why I'm glaring at you grinding my teeth
'Cause it's not monkey see, then monkey do
If you're sipping tea, while I'm sniffing glue
So take a look and be amazed
At the kids you didn't raise
Lack of trust replaced with rage
Building every single day
What you mean is never true
All you say you never do
I will never be anything like you
It's kind of funny when I miss the old man who
When out of line would beat my ass
I wanna see him one more time
Now that I'm big enough to fight back
You doormat don't try and tell me how
I'll think when I'm as old as ya
Just shut up and stay down
'Cause this is our house now, this is our house now
It's not monkey see, then monkey do
If you're sipping tea, while I'm sniffing glue
So take a look and be amazed
At the kids you didn't raise
Lack of trust replaced with rage
Building every single day
What you mean is never true
All you say you never do
I will never be anything like you
You don't know more than me
Just 'cause you're 53 and I'm 19
There won't be some epiphany
That makes abandoning seem okay to me
I remember every night I heard my mother cry
The same reason my brother pulled a knife
On you so long ago
How do you still not know?
Every brick you have built
Into this broken home
It's not monkey see, then monkey do
If you're sipping tea, while I'm sniffing glue
So take a look and be amazed
At the kids you didn't raise
Lack of trust replaced with rage
Building every single day
What you mean is never true
All you say you never do
I will never be anything like you

Warm hands, cold night
Look up, see the satellites?
They know more about me than I do
Like you do
Heartbreak, silence, excuses, like violence
I'll only ever resort to if I got to
Or if you want me to, want me to, want me to
Call me the optimist
Honest, I promise you this
Things are gonna change
It's just one of those days
I'll be right here for you
Always
King and Queen of the overpass
A&E outcasts
They can kick me out of hell for all that I care
As long as you're there
Strange place, wet socks
Giving all I got
We'll make it somewhere, someday, somehow
I'll figure it all out
Call me the optimist
Honest, I promise you this
Things are gonna change
It's just one of those days
I'll be right here for you
Always
Call me the optimist
Honest, I promise you this
Things are gonna change
It's just one of those days
I'll be right here for you
Always
