I Don't Care Where We're Going
I'm learning to lie through my teeth
It makes everything easier
I won't let it sink too deep
Somewhere down with my childhood fears
Things get better, then they get worse
I miss the laughs of my terrible friends
Doing terrible things to terrible people
And the terrible feelings this would mend
I've been waking in a cold light
Embarrassed and regretful of the night
Which I spent alone in front of the stereo
Just drinking and wondering if the sun would rise
He called me shaking and rather fearful
Just looking for some kind of comfort
I tried keeping things a little less trivial
With talks of our hometowns and the people
And there is somebody wanting to live, he's gonna die
There is an ocean who's only company is the sky
Trains that have to run all night
And here we are acting like its hard just to survive
A growing fear of our own hands
A lack of trust in the heart
I don't care where we're going Mason
As long as its out of here
Yes, my face is getting sunken
It's just a matter of time
We hold each other up, that way we'll get by
Lets gather our shit so we can fall apart again
This place is gonna eat us up Mason, lets get out Love
Cause there is somebody wanting to live, he's gonna die
There is an ocean who's only company is the sky
Trains that have to run all night
So who the fuck do we think we are acting its hard just to survive?

Rinsed To The Sea
I'm running out like we did when we were younger
Back to where we fought, cause we were feeling so much stronger
This line hadn't yet dulled our teeth
When pushed, we'd bite, and never sleep
Stood heart to heart
Didn't let any sea set us apart
Funny what we said then, never build a shelter
But then again I guess we're growing older
And when it came down and rested on your shoulder
I knew you were settling on something that in time would smolder
What could I do? I never had the time to keep
And when I see you you're building up away from me
So I'm running out, shake from this comfort
Swear I'm getting out, keeping it just a number
All that mercy was rinsed to the sea
There's a smoked machine eating away at you and me
From it's horns smear spews
We're adding to it too, it doesn't matter how bad we didn't want to
Its just something we do, its just something you do

70 Miles Long
Suns melting through my curtains
Feels just as thick as bullets
I try to explain
You said get out, just please get out
So I fell out to the street
Lit me up like a heavy burden
For her shoulders
Said get out, just please get out
All of a sudden your name
Has become 70 miles long
It takes a deep breath
I get it right, put it back unsaid
Called you like a confessional booth
It was as good as pumping coins
Into dead payphones
Get it right, put it back unsaid
Lead me on, cover me in tape
Cut my strings, it's all the same
She wrote "what If i'm alone forever?"
Then that's the place you put yourself
I'm a too do list, just extra weight
Old birthday cards and magazines
Strictly against the grain
That's the place I put myself
Suns melting through my curtains
Feels just as thick as bullets
I try to explain
Said get out, just please get out
So I fell out to the street
Lit me up like a heavy burden
For her shoulders
Think I would have grown up by now

Portland, Minneapolis
Laura, Laura, is that a frown?
Really can't tell when you want me around
I read it in the paper your friend hasn't been found
Is he out doing heroin, or did he turn you down?
Jesus, Jesus, give me a warning
Thought you were interested, now I'm feeling boring
My friends, they get high and stay up all night
I don't join but watch them and hope they stay alright
I can not compete
Through all this self-revelatory
Nothing is like it seems
This isn't what I wanted it to be
Laura, Laura, I'm always running
But more than that I've been coming back
So I guess if the plan was getting out
That's cool, just don't leave me here in the South
Laura, Laura, I'd never ask for you settle down
If you're not over him that's fine just let me know how you like the sound
Of maybe one night under those Portland spotlights
Let that cigarette smoke go from your lungs to mine
Then give me something that you mean
Cause I've been falling in this game
If you want me, then want me
But I'm nothing like I seem

Rooting
I'll find a hole
You go on without me
The years will fall
Go on without me
It's poison, this nest
And I don't want a part of it
It's beating in my chest
I can't get rid of it
So I'll lay my head
Forget all the names
That kept me strung
And hope they do the same
A new home, A new grave
Maybe I'll take up gardening
My hands, my knees
It's the only way to rooting
Is that a way to rooting?
The ghost in the trees, oh, I am begging
For one to carry me to a break of seldomly
I chase, I breathe, oh, come back to me
You mirror, you seed, don't leave me
So I got what I came for
Now I want it back
Family or nature
I just want it back
I'll find a hole
And you'll go on without me
I'll be one you forgot you know
The water will fill me
I'll breath too deep
The water will fill me
Cinder blocks, my feet
Maybe years later on TV
Go on without me

Wherever
Summers here Summers gone
Winter will be back before too long
Trade out the fire ash for long sleeves
Go from late nights and racing cars
To sleeping and studying birth marks
Trade out that sun for extra hours of dreams
Put out lover for lover swap our guns out for cover
Find out who really wants or needs you
Who's using, who's abusing
Tries to make it amusing
Maybe it's time we pack up and get out too
Cause hey, it's like they say
There's a better world waiting for us somewhere
Wrote he's too full of remark
Since coming home its been time to disembark
Trade out that cement coffin for one of brome
I tried telling you this before
Tried asking what you're running for
Cause once you lose it there's no feeling at home
I try my best not to fill my mind with comets or what will be of my time
Those thoughts are best spent asleep
So lets lock hands fall through each night
Arms like crests stepped into the light
Anyway we got each other to keep
And hey, it's like they say
There's a better world waiting for us somewhere
Just take me there
