We pack our bags into littler boxes before the sky gets darker, like that permanent marker The clothes I lived in back in winter balance in bags on top of your printer Moving day I'm I coming home ma, does that make me a failure? I'll live out my suitcase till the final move When you can hear the echo in my empty room The car is heavy but we fill it up more and the junk in the trunk's my favorite Dior Moving day I'm I coming home ma, does that make me a failure?

Stray 04:07
Baby's got a cigarette tucked in his ear And I think I'm gonna love him by the end of the year There's a man on the beach trying to drown himself While your mouth tastes like some seawater shells Baby's jeans are ripped but they still look good We're made out of water sitting on a piece of driftwood If we never have money, well at least we got here With a view and a cigarette behind my ear I'm right, I'm wrong, I stray for days I like it when you say my name I love, I hurt, You hurt me back I think I'll have a heart attack Baby took my coat but I still feel warm And I think I'm gonna kill him by the end of the dawn There's a girl in my head trying to drown herself And you tell me you think there's somebody else Baby looks cute, man you gotta see her She's a natural born killer and she's from Korea But we'll never be together, it's a crazy world I'm head over heels for my best friend's girl You've been out for days I like you I'm right, I'm wrong, I stray for days I like it when you say my name I love, I hurt, You hurt me back I think I'll have a heart attack

Throw me some meat, I'm sick of the bone Make up my make up, leave insecurities home I called her a lot, she said "What am I, fat?" I said "You don't get babe", and she left me like that Majestic down a firepole, this volunteer's a stripper He's fire retarded, he can't stand double dippers Got a collection of zippers, I booked a conjucal visit For a valentines date, I said "You think I want sex? I got Jail bait." The weather is fine My clothes on the line I'm doing some time The pleasure is mine Smoking isn't bad, it's just ideology My passions lie in art, but I study biology My friend thinks with his dick, he needs a rectal lobotomy I'm a fan of the Beatles, and also full-time monogamy She said it twice, I don't accept her apology Said it's all in your head, I said "You think I need you? I got a single bed". The weather is fine My clothes on the line I'm doing some time The pleasure is mine I met a guy named Jack, he got himself a Cadillac And he lacked what I lacked, and I liked what he liked I cut him slack, but I would never take the fucker back Cause he was made of wax, worse than that he wanted me to wax And he whacked me on the ass, and I whacked him on the head And I kicked him out the door when he try put me to bed Maybe someday I'll have a friend But for now I think I'm better off dead dead dead dead

I don't know, I'm feeling low Is it just me or do all of them blow? I stroke your ego like your feathers shine Well baby you got yours and I got mine I don't need you cause baby I got my hands You put me down your just an ungrateful man You can't please me or any other women We don't need you when there's no chance of cumming Anyway, baby I got my.. When you walked in the room with just your t-shirt on I said you look nice but you didn't look at me twice I don't need that shit in my life You ain't that great so don't get cocky and don't come crawling when I don't call you back I don't need you cause baby I got my hands You put me down your just an ungrateful man You can't please me or any other women We don't need you when there's no chance of cumming Anyway, baby I got my.. I don't need you cause baby I got my hands You put me down your just an ungrateful man

Walk down the street It's you I wanna meet I woke you up and then I put you to sleep You lead me astray and then you called me a sheep I woke you up and then I put you to sleep Won't you meet me Tracey? I 'll never leave you baby They can try but they can't make me I'll never leave ya Open up deceased You make my heart bleed Draw up a lung It's getting hard to breathe You brought me an ashtray and then you told me to quit You walked away and then you told me to sit Won't you meet me Tracey? I 'll never leave you baby They can try but they can't make me I'll never leave ya I don't wanna be civil I don't wanna be cool I don't wanna be civil with anyone like you Oh Tracey, trace me Oh Tracey, chase me

When I'm alone and I'm at home I play a song I write my way to other worlds and your not there I can imagine anything when I sing My guitar is the very thing that keeps me sane.. Keeps me sane so I won't make the same mistakes as yesterday Keeps me alive Gives me drive Makes me vibe I guess I'm just a nobody, nobody cares (I don't know what to see maybe I'm color blind)

I have to go to work at 8 every morning I have to ride my bike cause you took the car in My back is sore from the weight on my shoulders Maybe it would stop if you quit shifting boulders I don't know about this what do you think? All you ever do is drink Never get a job cause this is what you will get I lay awake at night hoping I could forget Don't complain (he said) Don't complain (she said) Don't complain to me
