I don’t want this song at the top of the chart I just want to start a fire in your fuckin’ heart Someday we’ll get married and be so happy, It’s talk talk talk it’s a big waste of time. You’re existential, and I’m insane. Got a fifty/fifty firework in my brain. You ask me what I’m thinking, I say i’m fine. Then I do another bump and say what’s on my mind. All my friends say you’re crazy. I just want to fight before we get to old And all your friends who say I’m lazy, Do you want to fight, cuz you seem pretty old to me. You say that you want to go out tonight. I won’t hold you back mama, its not my life. You say you want to break hearts, and you’re such a catch. I don’t want to break yours, but you’re getting fat. All my friends say you’re crazy. I just want to fight before we get to old And all your friends who say I’m lazy, Do you want to fight, cuz you seem pretty old to me. I don’t want this song at the top of the chart I just want to start a fire in your fuckin’ heart Someday we’ll get married and be so happy, It’s talk talk talk it’s a big waste of time. All my friends say you’re crazy. I just want to fight before we get to old And all your friends who say I’m lazy, Do you want to fight, cuz you seem pretty old to me.

There’s a place I like to sit Down and think a bit When I can’t remember the last time it rained They say help comes in time But I’m still waiting for mine Because nobody gets out alive There’s no reason to fret Got a lot on my back And I can’t help but find my way home This desert of disease Means nothing to me And I can’t help but find my way home Heaven forbid there’s no reason to cry But write in his will oh well at least he tried Alone is our fate some people can’t wait As their memories become our lullabies There’s no reason to fret Got a lot on my back And I can’t help but find my way home This desert of disease Means nothing to me And I can’t help but find my way home There’s a place I like to sit Down and think a bit And I went there the last time it rained They say help comes in time But I’m done waiting for mine As their memories become our lullabies I can’t forget If you look back I’ll bet I could still help you find your way home In this desert of disease, that brought you to your knees There’s no reason to fret Got a lot on my back And I can’t help but find my way home In this desert of disease That brought you to your knees And I can’t help but find my way home

Broadway Baby 04:19

It’s three o’clock, and Bells are ringing It’s time to dance your way out the door. Your friends are waiting with their hands open wide for Five dollars for tonights high The wind not he rooftops echoes through your hair And new life spreads to your fingertips. The Hudson River’s like the blood runs through your veins Glinting in the New York City dusk. Broadway Baby, He’s taking a nose dive. Broadway Baby on the Brooklyn Bridge. Broadway Baby thinks he’s in too deep. Ain’t gonna be no rest tonight in the city that never sleeps. Walking down the sidewalk in the pouring rain Hoping the water washes you clean. Two weeks since you showered you’re wearing cigarette perfume Your peacoat smelling like failure and burnout Wearing vans backwards, smoking on a stoop Watching west side couples walking by Maybe you’ll call that girl and ask her on a date, But fuck you’re too far gone to try. Useless daydreams and forgotten tomorrows Meanings of life that didn’t mean a thing. And the feeling that you’re on top of the world You wouldn’t give that up for nothing. Broadway Baby, He’s taking a nose dive. Broadway Baby on the Brooklyn Bridge. Broadway Baby thinks he’s in too deep. Ain’t gonna be no rest tonight in the city that never sleeps. Walking down the highline in chelsea. Five o’clock on a February afternoon. Can’t go home, you can’t feel your feet. As they take you where you want to go. Where South Street seaport glistens through the fog And Ellis Island’s just a stone’s throw away. Halfway to parkslope and the bottom of his home Is where the hero makes his final stand Broadway Baby, He’s taking a nose dive. Broadway Baby on the Brooklyn Bridge. Broadway Baby thinks he’s in too deep. Ain’t gonna be no rest tonight in the city that never… Broadway Baby, He’s taking a nose dive. Broadway Baby on the Brooklyn Bridge. Broadway Baby thinks he’s in too deep. Ain’t gonna be no rest tonight in the city that never sleeps.

I had a shitty day I didn’t get paid You have a shitty day? Did you get paid? I had a shitty day I didn’t get laid Did you get laid? I cant' believe it's happened again I waste my time but it never ends I slept too late and got too baked again Twenty minutes late to work Don’t care about nothing not wearing a shirt, now Other things on my mind If I up and left oh where would they find me Drinking my soul away But it’s just water I’m too poor to buy that shit Sleeping in every day Maybe it’s because I cant' believe it's happened again I waste my time but it never ends I slept too late and got too baked again I cant' believe it's happened again I waste my time but it never ends I slept too late and got too baked again Sick of being late to work Took a couple of pills and I’m wearing a shirt now Other things on my mind Take a left at the light right past the for sale sign Couple hours late to work Driving with a broken headlight, broken car, and broken life I can’t breath if I stand in line Maybe It’s because I cant' believe it's happened again I waste my time but it never ends I slept too late and got too baked again I cant' believe it's happened again I waste my time but it never ends I slept too late and got too baked again

Breathe Easy 02:40

How long until I can breathe easy How long until I can take a shot A shot, whatever's coming my way Give it all I got but i never had it in me anyway I was there one day in the corner of my haze In an upside down hall, too scared to fall Like the racket in my mind of the door I left behind At a crossroads where there’s no turning around Well you can’t believe all the writing on your wall Or that you’re big and strong when you aren’t at all And all the things that you think as you’re falling asleep Will you ever wake up will you ever make it through to next week How long until I can breathe easy How long until I can take a shot A shot, whatever's coming my way Give it all I got but i never had it in me anyway When your fears outweigh you and you don't weigh a lot I'm not much good at Simon Says cuz I don't know when to stop Kill the racket in my mind, load the tape and hit rewind At a crossroads where I'm not turning around I'm living proof that a life worth living Is a sinner and a saints paradise Give me all your money Don't you think its kind of funny How they never showed you how to say goodbye (Let's hear it) Well you can’t believe all the writing on your wall Or that you’re big and strong when you aren’t at all And all the things that you think as you’re falling asleep Will you ever wake up will you ever make it through to next week How long until I can breathe easy How long until I can take a shot A shot, whatever's coming my way Give it all I got but i never had it in me anyway How long until I can breathe easy How long until I can take a shot A shot, whatever's coming my way Give it all I got but i never had it in me anyway

Obsessed, overdressed Look at you, what a mess Where you're going next is anybody's guess Look at me, finally free Just the way I want to be I'm sorry that this hurts. I was sick of all your lame excuses Subtleties and paper nooses Guess I wasn't right I never really wanted to fight I don't care anymore And you shouldn't care anymore Quit bringing me down, playin’ games when all along I know you're Nowhere to be found coming back in a month or two And I, can't find a way, I guess I'm here to stay But you don't have to worry I'll be fine But I'm not fine And I'm not ok You're still hanging around I don't wanna stay With every emotion And every plea You gotta understand You're better of without me Why Why are you still hanging around and Why Landing face first on the ground I don't care anymore And you shouldn't care anymore Quit bringing me down, playin’ games when all along I know you're Nowhere to be found coming back in a month or two And I, can't find a way, I guess I'm here to stay But you don't have to worry I'll be fine I don't care That you don't care I don't care That you don't care Quit bringing me down, playin’ games when all along I know you're Nowhere to be found coming back in a month or two And I, can't find a way, I guess I'm here to stay But you don't have to worry I'll be fine I'll be fine

Smoking Gun 03:29
lyrics

Strange the way it feels to walk away. To slam the door without a sound. You always boasted of your will to pray. You lost your god when mine was found. Once there was a time you looked at me. And swore you’d never say goodbye Now the hardest part of letting go Is trying not to meet your eyes. You darkened my door with a smile and a kiss. Now I’m holding a smoking gun. You had time to choose the one you’d miss. But I’m not the only one. I know that other men have come this way They’ve watched the smile slide off your face. They only comfort I’ll give you tonight Is this cold and dark embrace. You darkened my door with a smile and a kiss. Now I’m holding a smoking gun. You had time to choose the one you’d miss. But I’m not the only one. Now you tell me that I have changed. But we both know that’s not the truth I’m not your mother’s mugshot tabloid game I’m not some thief that stole your youth. You darkened my door with a smile and a kiss. Now I’m holding a smoking gun. You had time to choose the one you’d miss. But I’m not the only one. Come on now… You darkened my door with a smile and a kiss. Now I’m holding a smoking gun. You had time to choose the one you’d miss. But Bitch I’m not the only one

Well I'm so angry at the clock Give me some reason not to start Cause starting over sounds pretty good right now Help me friend, cuz I got a whole lot to learn And will there be something special for me in return How many birds does it take to, to kill a stone Because if there’s one thing that I’ve learned It’s to expect nothing in return You went and taught me the basics of life You better quick watch your back Look out for that knife Cause I’m here for you darling and I-I-I’m never letting Go I'm never letting go Give me time, just a little bit of time to catch my breath When there's no use screaming and no use swearing left with cigarettes and death Call it what you will might be this, might be that But given time you'll see How much stronger you make me You went and taught me the basics of life You better quick watch your back Look out for that knife Cause I’m here for you darling and I-I-I’m never letting Go And when you’re talking to yourself again And you haven’t figured out you’re your only friend Why don’t you take me by the hand and sing the same old song Because I’m never never never never never never Never letting go Stop the clock and we all stop breathing, ain’t no Smoking Gun and its no Easy Eating Finders keepers we all stop breathing, one more Middle finger we all stop breathing, I’m not Letting go and we all stop breathing, I’m not Letting go and we all stop breathing, I’m not Letting go and we all stop breathing, I’m not Letting go and we all stop breathing tonight

You don’t have to say I love you I just want to know you care You don’t have to make no promises I ain’t going nowhere You could make a million mistakes Honey that’s alright by me Cos I could take a million heartbreaks Just never set me free Cuz when I’m holding you’re hand in mine No other words can say; its paradise For all this time you’ve watched my loving grow Now I’m never letting go I don’t have to hide around you You kiss my cheek and let me in With all the chaos that surrounds me You smile and welcome where I’ve been Cuz when I’m holding you’re hand in mine No other words can say; its paradise For all this time you’ve watched my loving grow Now I’m never letting go You paint the picture of my happiness It’s getting brighter every day One smile one single touch of tenderness Shows your light that never goes away Cuz when I’m holding you’re hand in mine No other words can say; its paradise For all this time you’ve watched my loving grow Now I’m never letting go Cuz when I’m holding you’re hand in mine No other words can say; its paradise For all this time you’ve watched my loving grow Now I’m never letting go
