Plastic Acts

Credit cards, remote control
A dual reality with half a soul
The other piece is scrapyard metal
Fooling around playing with the devil
I'm speaking easy, I'm speaking straight
Don't believe me make your stake
Streetlights dot the skyline
Sparkling incandescents
Drifting down the freeway
Faster every second
Thee past thy repeat
I'll auction off my soul to eat
Words like plastic acts
Words like plastic acts
They say this but they do that
Riddling rattling words like plastic acts
Killing time smooths the rhyme
When I make my move to make the crime
I double down and then I make the rounds
If he cheats with chat then fuck that cat
Burn a bush and cut a tree
Find a thought and just stay thought free
Find a God and just stay God free
Streetlights dot the skyline
Sparkling Incandescents
Drifting down the freeway
Faster every second
Thee past thy repeat
I'll auction off my soul to eat
Words like plastic acts
Words like plastic acts
They say this but they do that
Riddling rattling words like plastic acts

I’ll be singing this song until my throat bleeds dry or at least at worst until the end of my life
Word travels fast through this sullen town where all the sad and lonely people got nothing to talk about except for you and me and everything that we've been doing, darling
Well I never cared what they think about us
I never cared what they told us to do
I just wish that I could change your mind
It doesn't matter at the end of the night I'm still dialing 1-800-SAD AS FUCK
Is it over now
Just break me down
I don't care
I already run my fingers through your hair
Is it over now
Just break it down
The games that we've been playing aren't real at all
No, no, no
If I had it my way I would change everything
I would put me and you back together again
Just like I thought we were supposed to be
All the things that you said and all the things that I've done
Sure makes for a lovely situation doesn't it?
It doesn't matter at the end of the night I'm still dialing 1-800-SAD AS FUCK
Is it over now
Just break me down
I don't care
I already run my fingers through your hair
Is it over now
Please break it down
I don't care if it hurts me
I just want you to love me
But I can't force anyone to do the things they don't want to do
I don't think that we should bother
trying to run away trying to hide our feelings
I don't think it's right you found another
I don't care anymore
I just want to go to sleep for once
Is it over now
Just break it down
I don't care
If it hurts me
because what hurts me
There's nothing like this, this one
Its the fact that you're gone and you don't wanna come back to me
And I can't change your mind

Time To Change

Woah, here they come again
racing up my spine
these thoughts of mine
Woah, here we go again
feeling bored again
I think it's time to change
Weather's killing you
Weather's killing me, alright
Weather's killing you, too much TV
sugary suicide
Passing out on the couch
Every night of the week
I'm gonna die, you're gonna die this way
Woah, here we go again
wasting time again
I think it's time to change
Woah, here we go again
trying to find some friends
that won't waste our time
Weather's killing you,
weather's killing me alright
weather's killing you, too much TV
sugary suicide
passing out on the couch, every night of the week
I'm gonna try
I'm gonna try to get away
Woah, here we go again
feeling bored again
I think it's time to change
Woah, here we go again
spreading our wings again
up against the wind

railroad spikes in the ground pushing up like daisies
she’s taking pictures of the dust and where it’s settled down
gas station soda pops, the smell of young lust
fifty cents was good enough but I heard she’s leaving town anyway
yeah she’s going on to better things
well alright
darlin’ I don’t mind
If we go or if we stay
‘cause I know we got nothin’ to worry about
‘cause I know we got no problems anymore
alright
rolling like an ocean breeze, tumbling down the interstate
leave it all behind my dear, the lights and all the carbonate
it’s nothing but a busted frame, behind us it will disappear
and I won’t miss it much it all because I know that
we’re on our way, from this town of dusty and dying dreams
and we’re going on to better things
well alright
darlin’ I don’t mind
If we go or if we stay
‘cause I know we got nothin’ to worry about
‘cause I know we got no problems anymore
alright
I don’t really mind if we pack our bags and leave today
you say you wanna leave but you never get on that train
I’ve waited my whole life to live a life like this
so tell me what’s it gonna be
are you ready
are you ready to shake it all away
see it flowing in her blood breathe it out like cigarettes
a camera lens her closet friend, showin’ off her silhouette
she draws me in and says, baby I don’t want this to end at all
and I know I could never leave, and I know I can never leave
until she turns me into dust and tumbleweeds
well alright
darlin’ I don’t mind
If we go or if we stay
‘cause I know we got nothin’ to worry about
‘cause I know we got no problems anymore
alright

Any Port In The Storm

Like a marathon of shopping carts headed towards oblivion
we've fooled them all into thinking
that all the ships are sinking down
and the captain goes down without the ship
as he throws his son off the starboard bow
and he falls into the deep green sea
with nothing but his sandals on
how do we get back to where we were
it seems so long since we got here
and i don't wanna think about how we got here
because i know we are home
I'm gonna be late to my own funeral
if I don't stop acting my age
for all the lazy days I've swallowed out of rage
that subsides into insanity
how do we get back to where we were
it seems so long since we got here
and i don't wanna think about how we got here
because i know we are home
now all the ships are broken
at the bottom of the ocean
not a single word was spoken
as we took it on the chin, yeah
over the undertow
to a place where no one ever goes
through never-ending currents of blood and oxygen
oozing from the carcass of where we once lived
