If not I’ll be upset, because A) I don’t want to be here B) I don’t want to see her C) I don’t know how to read her D) I just can’t believe her Believing her Believe in her Be leaving her I’ll be leaving her A) I don’t want to be here B) I don’t want to see her C) I don’t know how to read her D) I just can’t believe her

I hate the downtown girls With their big sunglasses Constant coffee cups and curls They never show compassion I hate the downtown boys Who get to touch their asses Here they come, here they come, here they come Looking so in fashion And I know, Yeah I know It’s too much, it’s too much It’s too much for me It’s too much, it’s too much It’s too much for me I hate the downtown boys With their skinny pants on Going down to the show tonight To get romanced on I hate the downtown girls Pretending men can’t find them Here they come, here they come, here they come Flocking right behind them And I know, Yeah I know It’s too much, it’s too much It’s too much for me It’s too much, it’s too much It’s too much for me And I know, Yeah I know

Up All Night 03:24
What you don’t know, can hurt you Just as badly as what you knew Cut you deeper, all the way through And leave you half of what you knew I can’t fight the fight Stay up all night Dreaming of real life I can’t fight the fight Stay up all night Dreaming of real life What you don’t know, can’t leave behind Seems so pointless, the less you find Little worries feed on your mind And leave you smothered like wintertime I can’t fight the fight Stay up all night Dreaming of real life I can’t fight the fight Stay up all night Dreaming of real life

I don’t want to know what you did today I just want you to go I don’t want to be your friend like that Girl, hit the road I’m watching my dad die Right before my eyes Yelling out: “Oh no! Don’t go! It isn’t time!" And if you don’t feel Why are you here? It’s like you don’t know Or even care...I don’t wanna know I don’t want to know what you did today I just want you to go I don’t want to be your friend like that Girl, hit the road I’m watching my dad die Right before my eyes Yelling out: “Oh no! Don’t go! It isn’t time!" And if you don’t feel Why are you here? It’s like you don’t know Or even care...I don’t wanna know

Wrap Me Up 03:31
Wrap me up and set me on fire Turn my head into a funeral pyre Take away the one desire Wrap me up and set me on fire It’s been like this for a while Takes a month just to get me to smile I lay the bad things out for miles And it’s been like this for a while Wrap me up and set me on fire Turn my head into a funeral pyre Take away the one desire Wrap me up and set me on fire It’s been like this for a while Takes a month just to get me to smile I lay the bad things out for miles And it’s been like this for a while You didn’t let me know You never let me know Never let me know You didn’t let me know You never let me know Never let me know Let me go

Bleed Black 02:26
Take my heart down, down, down And hold it down until it drowns I don’t want to see that fucking thing around As far as I’m concerned right now Unless it bleeds black Bleed black Does it bleed black? Bleed black, bleed black, bleed black Take your art down, down, down It doesn’t have a reason or make a sound I don’t want to see your empty things around As far as I’m concerned right now Unless it bleeds black Bleed black Does it bleed black? Bleed black, bleed black, bleed black

It’s a long way down And I don’t know my way around Everybody makes the same sounds In this town, in this town I don’t know Where I should go Everybody acts like they know But I know, that they don’t I don’t know if I can carry on But until then pretend I’m gone It’s a long way down And I don’t know my way around Everybody makes the same sounds In this town, in this town I don’t know Where I should go Everybody acts like they know But I know, that they don’t I don’t know if I can carry on But until then pretend I’m gone
