Where Do I Go?

We all sat there crying in our separate rooms
Worried like your parents are when they read the daily news.
Like so many others before me, I'm painting circles around you.
If you consider my past successes, you'll be drowning in them too.
All the same, you're all the same.
So where do I go? Where do I go? I'm waiting all alone.
And what can I say? What can I say? I'll never be at home.
I still haven't managed to read it--the letter that you wrote.
To me. Scratched off the address and sealed it. I’ll hang on so tightly.
All the same, you're all the same.
So where do I go? Where do I go? I'm waiting all alone.
And what can I say? What can I say? I'll never be at home.
There's no chance in hell you'll apologize, or recognize my name
in ten more years.
I should be one to talk, I realize, cause I never stick around.
So where do I go? Where do I go? I'm waiting all alone.
And what can I say to make you notice I'll never be at home.
And where do I go now? I'm here waiting.
And where do I go now?
This one is gonna be so good.

Surprise!

A couple of chairs and the smell of plaster
Set the stage for our forever after
“Who’s that guy? The one who’s sleeping in?”
But before I learned to kick the habit,
Our tangled life was automatic.
Where’s the music? Cue the violins.
We’re talking too much. With our “what about’s”, our “why’s it all’s,” oh
Maybe just because.
Nothing beats that very first high.
Only feel that very first time.
I bet you thought I was a wonderful guy,
Well, surprise.
Those same two chairs they symbolize
Wooden legs, wearing out with time.
The price for love is higher on day one.
Take me back, though it won’t last.
We could skip your morning class.
If we don’t sleep, the morning never comes.
We’re talking too much. With our “what about’s”, our “why’s it all’s,” oh
Maybe just because.
Nothing beats that very first high.
Only feel that very first time.
I bet you thought I was a hell of a guy,
Well, surprise.
It’s seems a little different when you strip it all away,
Highs and lows, oh I don’t know, we’re better off this way?
Think of all the time spent, how we’ve come so far.
It sounded so much better at the start.
We’re talking too much. With our “what about’s”, our “why’s it all’s,” oh
Maybe just because.
Nothing beats that very first high.
Only feel that very first time.
I bet you thought I was a hell of a guy,
Well, surprise.
And so I’ll try to kick the habit,
And not to think too much about it.
Trying to get back towards day one.

Dead Ends.

Been hanging around for too long now, looking at the front door.
Been meaning to tell you something, but I know that I’m gonna fall short.
Take your modest expectations, and bury them with the rest of your plan.
Because I’m happy for now, and if it doesn’t work out, I’ll think about it then.
Please just know...
I don't need much of anything that I don't already have.
Just a couple of friends, yeah we're all dead ends, but we're all okay with that.
Living for the times where, we don't know what's next.
Everything is worth it, when you're never gonna feel it again.
Please just know...
I don't need much of anything that I don't already have.
Just a couple of friends, yeah we're all dead ends, but we're all okay with that.
Yeah I’ve seen the spotlight, but people are drowning in it.
I prefer the ones who’ll swim not sink, when reality goes to shit.
I don't need much of anything that I don't already have.
Just a couple of friends, yeah we're all dead ends, but we're all okay with that.
