she only talks when shes drunk well lucky for you, shes always drunk and she'll never let you forget how we had to pump her stomach clean to get rid of all of the loose threads that got left there from when she was a sewing machine the last thing you ever see will be burned into the back of your eyes and your last couple thoughts will grow out written in your hair for the next few years i hope its me, i hope its me i wanna be written on your body i wanna make a lot of money but i don't wanna work for it i wanna remember my dreams from every time i sleep i guess the american dream takes real american sleep my bed sheets still dream about being ghosts but when they wake up, i'll bet they'll haunt you the most i hope its me, i hope its me i hope its me, i hope its me i hope its me, i hope its me i wanna be written on your body

i just want to be clean i don't remember when it was i started hating everything taking showers in numbers and bathing in math you held my head underwater so i could learn to subtract i think that had something to do with it yeah, i think that has something to do with it oh well, i cant keep blaming all my problems on other people no, i cant keep blaming all my problems on other people i cant keep blaming all my problems on other people, anymore i am an old man just like my father my face is getting older now all my hair is falling out the same things happen everyday and we've got no one else to blame but ourselves the same things happen everyday and we've got no one else to blame but ourselves the same things happen everyday and we've got no one else to blame but ourselves the same things happen everyday and we've got no one else to blame but ourselves

got your arms all crossed like jesus christ i love you, yeah i love you you're going to miss me right? i love you, yeah i swear i do this is a good place to live all those connecticut girls stretched out their skin since the last time that you saw them in the summer, when you left lately i've been sleeping so strange and dreaming about the places that i've been and not about where i am i don't owe you nothing man i don't owe you nothing man, no i don't this is a good place to live and here is a a graph of all the things that i can get away with its at least ninety percent accurate so follow me, so you can be a part of it so follow me, just follow me

i spent the whole winter getting stoned and i'm glad i'm finally getting over that like jules verne, i woke up all wet from dreaming about the sea
5.
tennis. 03:11
i spent my entire last summer playing tennis by myself and watching all the movies sitting on the bottom shelf yeah, they said that being alone was bad for me yeah, they said that being alone was bad but like satan in the eighties, i've got no real friends but everyone keeps talking about me my mom came in asked me what the racket was i told her i was doing just what my father does moving on too fast, because nothing ever last yeah, nothing ever makes us happy i don't think about god much anymore but last sunday i threw up on a church bathroom floor and i've thought about him a lot since then i guess that's what it feels like to be born again if life was a game of tennis, i'd zero you but i spent the whole summer learning all the rules and like that kid found dead on a bedroom floor, i learned that love means nothing yeah, i've learned that love means nothing
6.
my best friend drinks too much he does it to stay warm there's a burning in his throat that's been there since he was born carpet whiskey and broken glass by the pool even at our worst, we're still better than most yeah, but life is so cruel we waited all day for fifteen minutes of explosions in the sky i saw you by the library but it just wasn't right carpet whiskey and blood stains on my shirt even at our worst, we're still better than most but why does it still hurt?
