My guitar, some vinho Come venga comigo I don’t swim in their currents for life or assurance My suitcase is barren Just clothes that I’m wearing is all I believe in No purpose just freedom So keep your convictions Not knowing is wisdom Just take enough to give away Illusions, confessions, I’m heartsick and binging A whole school preparing For disappointing our parents A grown man in ripped jeans No woman, no family A leather crayon on the scene Cause coolness is a currency So keep your convictions Not knowing is wisdom Just take enough to give away I got no peace cause what I need Is just a little different The city’s inviting Like soft drugs in tight jeans The house band might save us I guess they’re gonna get famous With pipe dreams on delay Like sit ups and screenplays And art school girl weekends that come with prescriptions I’m setting my phasers to pinstripes and blazers I’ll make enough to get away I’ll make enough to get away I got no peace cause what I need Is just a little different

Rattlesnake 03:42
You ought to buy another round It seems to me, ain’t nobody else around It doesn’t matter if we don’t trade names yet It’s good to have another voice around I don’t wanna be no rattlesnake Draggin all my poison in your life We don’t even need to be awake I just need a place to crash tonight I hear daddy’s in the city now He’s got a little girl and a family, Momma doesn’t know about And if I’m brave enough I’ll find their doorstep But right now, right now I just need another cigarette I don’t wanna be no rattlesnake Draggin all my poison in your life We don’t even need to be awake I just need a place to crash tonight Modern world breaking promises and bracelets Daddy's girl hasn't seen the light of day yet

Does it insult you when they say you look your age? Did you think it happened any other way? When who you hoped to be is getting out of range I’m just as fucked, I’m just as fucked I’m just the same When I was younger I just wanted to fit in But fitting in was not a problem I hear the future’s just a heightening of flaws And I don’t think I’m gonna like it there at all These parties always start so fucking late The kids are lining up but they’ve forgotten why they came It’s so much cooler than before But nothing here excites me anymore Dumb, dumb and no one’s sincere She knows the artist but the guest list thing is so last year The wine’s free and I hate nostalgia but after 4 drinks I’m all “you should have seen me when I started, I even played gigs outside my apartment” When I came out here I was hoping for some kicks But getting kicked was not a problem They say the future’s a koala bear with claws And a case of the shakes And I don’t think I’m gonna like it there at all These parties always start so fucking late The kids are lining up but they’ve forgotten why they came It’s so much cooler than before But nothing here excites me anymore Let’s start a brand new town Cause the old one’s busted It’s so much cooler than before But nothing here excites me anymore

I got my mother’s eyes but not her sense of reason I wish we lived somewhere we weren’t scared of the seasons You got a job you hate, I’m not afraid of dreamin’ Let’s get our money right, we’ll take a train one night Let’s get wild and young and dumb and free just you and me Let’s get lost We’ll be mysterious in northern Argentina and teach some English between gigs at the cantena Or ride the indie wave to southern California The where don’t matter dear, let’s just get out of here. Let’s get wild and young and dumb and free just you and me Let’s get lost Oh, we could find an easy life Where day by day is not a question of not drowning

Gunsmoke 03:35
Hands to the sun, hands to the sun, hands to the sun Stick em up or be discontinued Hands to the sun, hands to the sun, hands to the sun Hope the gunsmoke don’t get in you Hate who you like but it isn’t right calling me a liar Hate who you like but it isn’t right calling me a liar Some lovers run, God bless you son, I’ll miss you Heart is not the issue Mine’s on fire Heist of the heart Heist of the pure Heist for a cure in a black flask burns so sweetly Some play for keeps Trade living free Give till they bleed But a house pet won’t become me Hate who you like but it isn’t right calling me a liar Hate who you like but it isn’t right calling me a liar Some lovers run, God bless you son, I’ll miss you Heart is not the issue Mine’s on fire I see his hands move real slow Chase you places you wanna go Leaving so fast, you feel low But why trade your body for rent control? Some lovers run, God bless you son, I’ll miss you Heart is not the issue Mine’s on fire

Jenna’s outside got your clothes in the car This is bad enough, don’t act like you give a shit You got so much friends, do they know all your parts? I’ll just say this once, it just ain’t your business Proving I’ll be fine, yeah I’ll find somebody soon dear And I wonder all the time, but don’t want to know I don’t like when you’re hurt, but I kinda hope you’re wounded We’re all killers inside but only you would want to take it this slow. Just swear you’ll save me someday I swear I’ll save you someday Is you is you is, you sufferin’? Used to wear a brave face, said that we’d get by somehow But then the hard times changed you changed you So take a condescending breath, why don’t you tell me who’s the asshole now? It’s not your fault that losing comes so naturally Yeah, that’s the good stuff… take a strange pinch and nail me to it I’d ask the same thing, but I doubt you’d know how They’ll offer you their heart if you promise to be gone Cause nothing validates love like the aching eyes that watch it move on Just swear you’ll save me someday I swear I’ll save you someday Is you is you is, you sufferin’?
