Long Lonely Future

You've got really a powerful thirst
For your medication
Diving for it through the curse
Of a long lonely future
Hit on the head with what you're headed for
You're licking the floor
Licking it up is what you're born to do
People who know the truth
They're never in town, they're ready to cut
Idiots know everything
And they'll be the first to tell you what you're worth
Wuh-oh-oh-oh
Surf in on a wave of it
And leave when it's all gone
Fulfilling obligations to
Your life at the bottom
Nobody cares for the things you say
Or spending time with you
You get your way cuz they're afraid of what you'll do
People who know the truth
They're never in town, they're ready to cut
Idiots know everything
And they'll be the first to tell you what you're worth
Wuh-oh-oh-oh
You got a really powerful thirst
For a long lonely future
You got a really powerful thirst
For a long lonely future
You got a really powerful thirst
For a long lonely future
You got a really powerful thirst
Wuh-oh-oh-oh

4 AM Again and Again

It's so perverse
If it's not the end of the universe
It isn't this time but I can end mine
It's fine
Stop and think, have a drink
Chill with a pill and we can be in sync
It's a shame I get it
Feeling comfortable being abused
And I know you had paranoid thoughts, too
What did you suppose I'd do?
You don't have much time to spend
But I guarantee you'll kill it all
And nobody can ever take it back
So tell your bartender
To make the special something
But it don't feel that special anymore
Again and again and again
At 4 AM
It's an assault
No means nothing and it's my fault
Prying eyeballs on my outgoing calls
I crawl
I spoke up, we broke up
But you keep me asleep, but I never woke up
You said I'm the one that's crazy
That it wasn't in my heart to be bruised
And I know you had paranoid thoughts, too
What did you suppose I'd do?
At 4 AM

Acclimate
Acclimate
Not feeling so great
Never see
She'll never see
Insult or injury
She needs a new enemy
She needs a new enemy
She needs a new enemy
Enemy, enemy
Demonstrate
Demonstrate
It's not all that great
Being me
Being me
I'm what she'll let me be
She needs a new enemy
She needs a new enemy
She needs a new enemy
Enemy, enemy
She needs a new enemy
She needs a new enemy
She needs a new enemy
Enemy, enemy
Enemy, enemy
Enemy, enemy
Enemy, enemy
Enemy

Locked Out
02:48
|

|
It's nineteen degrees
Woke up on the wrong side of the road
Did you get my messages
Just saying that I'm almost home?
And it's not fair when I'm in pain
To pull you down with me so I feel okay
When I don't do that, I think I'm gonna crack
And that's what happened and we can't go back
So, what would you have me do?
All a little too heavy between me and you
But if we're really all friends in this god damn house
When I finally came home why was I locked out?
When I rang your phone
You were sounding really really weird
I was out there in the cold
You said I coulda just come in
But you stayed upstairs, you did cocaine
You relished every minute of that god damn day
You say I'm off track, it's not like that
That I gotta get a grip or I shouldn't come back
So, what would you have me do?
All a little too heavy between me and you
But if we're really all friends in this god damn house
When I finally came home why was I locked out?

Here Comes Tomorrow
04:48

I was always here
Waiting for me to arrive
Or else just disappear
You were walking by
The rain had washed away the fear
But we were somehow dry
And all of the little voices
I was talking to every day
They got so much
They got so much to say
And all of their big ideas
Like I was always gonna be alone
I guess ya nev--
I guess ya never know
Whoa-whoa Whoa-oh-oh
Here comes tomorrow, oh
Whoa-whoa Whoa-oh-oh
Here comes tomorrow, oh
Sleeping in the woods
We see the sun when we wake up
And we see that it is good
Branches bend the wind
We held the dirt down where we stood
And we continue to exist
And all of the little voices
I was talking to every day
They got so much
They got so much to say
And all of their big ideas
Like I was always gonna be alone
I guess ya nev--
I guess ya never know
Whoa-whoa Whoa-oh-oh
Here comes tomorrow, oh
Whoa-whoa Whoa-oh-oh
Here comes tomorrow, oh
And I got plans, I got big plans, oh oh
I got plans, I got big plans, oh oh
I got plans, I got big plans, oh oh
I got plans, I got big plans, oh oh
I got plans, I got big plans, oh oh
I got plans, I got big plans, oh oh
I got plans, I got big plans, oh oh
I got plans, I got big plans, oh oh
I got plans, I got big plans, oh oh oh
Whoa-whoa Whoa-oh-oh
Here comes tomorrow, oh
Whoa-whoa Whoa-oh-oh
Here comes tomorrow, oh
Whoa-whoa Whoa-oh-oh
Here comes tomorrow, oh
Whoa-whoa Whoa-oh-oh
Here comes tomorrow, oh
Whoa-whoa Whoa-oh-oh
Here comes tomorrow, oh
Whoa-whoa Whoa-oh-oh
Here comes tomorrow, oh
