i just wanna thank you all for coming out tonight
i hope this little show of ours is worthy of your time
you could've been most anywhere but you chose to share a slice of your life in this shitty philly basement with me
i just wanna warn you upfront my band ain't that tight
i can't sing in key for the life of me and the drummer can't stay in time
we all complained the whole way here "is this worthy of our time?"
we've been on the road for 18 days. we're making 30 bucks tonight.
but you're here, so this must be worth something
so i'll mouth the words to every song even if i don't know them
i'm gonna scream so loud my lungs give out, at least i'm gonna try to
where i wanna go i don't need roads and i barely need attention
i play in a basement pop punk band and i was born to lose

all those pretty little things in your life are gonna fall down
strawberry baby you thought you got it right just one time; this time
lucid nightmares of the feeling that you're never gonna make it
i drank up all of the shakes of your life and lost the taste for it
i spill my guts out every chance that i can but i waited too long
i've been honest just as much as i can but i waited too long
i ???????????? because i waited too long
i'll take my heart back every piece that i can because i waited too long
i guess i'm just beside myself now

if you were local it would mean nothing to me
cause i can calmly walk away and then never care about anything
spending every week night getting stoned in your basement
never having 30 seconds to remember i hate this
saying "fuck you find my other fucking shoe"
saying "fuck you i fucking hate the grateful dead"
saying "fuck you it really hurts when i breathe in. can you stop laughing for a second at me over this?"
carving all the things that you want from my chest
throwing out what you can't carry; never things you'd forget
whatever you called intention, even if that's what it means
laugh away your whole 20s
all your friendships fall apart

i've been having the weirdest fits and i can totally tell you're not into it
i'm sorry i can't be the way you wanted
sometimes i'll be freaking and i don't know what to say
so i'll say nothing, and it makes it so much worse
cause then you'll act like you don't know me
you act like you never loved me, but that's a lie
because you just said that you do
and sometimes when you kiss me it just feels so fucking lonely
because it feels like you just do it for me
and hey, i'm sorry if it felt like you wasted your only 23 on me
i hate myself enough for the two of us so you don't have to stay if you don't want to
and i'm sorry but this doesn't say anything about you
and it kills me that there's nothing i can say that would convince you
