Brand New 00:39
It sure has been one crazy hell of a year i cried a couple of tears for the people that forgot about me and if i never speak to you again well that's ok then i will know you never cared about me here's to late nights of sleeping all alone by myself you snore to loud anyways a year of not falling for The Same Mistakes a brand new year a brand new me
2.
Its not fair and its not right to think about you all the time and everyone tells me that i'm overreacting but if you only knew all the times i wrote to you we're not meant to be but that wont stop me from being happy i'm a fraud, i'm a fake there's mistakes that i've made the biggest one being you the fucked up jerk you turned into don't mind me i'm just venting. i'm pretty sure you're fucked up and torn your heart is cold as the floor that i was sitting on that night when we were sitting on my front porch outside got in a huge fight and we knew this wasn't working out you're constant complaining you're always bitching to be honest its unappealing "oh woe is me, no one wants to be with me" come on man, get a grip no one wants to hear your shit where's that guy i knew the one that i used to talk to. i'm pretty sure you're fucked up and torn your heart is cold as the floor that i was sitting on that night when we were sitting on my front porch outside got in a huge fight and we knew this wasn't working out i'm pretty sure you're lonely and i don't have a thing left to say but that i'm sorry it ended this way i meant it

Guilt 02:00
I've got this problem speaking too much drinking slow, i beat myself up more than you would ever know. these are the things that keep me whole. i came home to an empty bed last night no one just Morrissey and I he's shrewd but he's all that i have. he's all that i have. I've got this problem slurring my words cutting ties, i practice this speech well here it goes these are the things that i think you should know i'm sinking fast i hope you choke i know it hurts but you should know when i get home i want you out your things are gone but i'm keeping the couch i wish i could tell you everything that i was thinking all the stupid shit that's on my mind or why i get sad from time to time these problems are mine if i don't admit it i'm lying i fumble with my words so much i'm surprised anyone listens at all i'm not someone who you can count on (when i get home i want you out) ill let you down and everyone i love (your things are gone) when i get home i want you out your things are gone but i'm keeping the couch

I do this for myself no one else im not a poet im not a saint i write awful songs about people i hate my head hurts from all this late night writing when did my life become so boring? life is not determined by the breaths you take but by the lives you touch and the friends that you make and if i ever had the chance to follow my advice i'd go somewhere far away and i wouldn't think twice i get fed up and breakdown i say things that i dont mean im immature and selfish im a wreck and yes i know this i just want to tell you im sorry ill try my best to be happy I'm always mad about something life is not determined by the money that you make but by the lives you touch and the chances that you take my mom used to give me all her best advice she said honey you don't need someone to make you feel alive. i get fed up and breakdown i say things that i dont mean im immature and selfish im a wreck and yes i know this i just want to tell you im sorry ill try my best to be happy I'm always mad about something life is not determined by the breaths you take or the clothes you wear or the people that you date and if no one likes our band well then i guess that alright i do this for my self. so fuck everyone else. im gonna work on me im gonna try my best to make you happy and when i let you down i love you, I'm sorry its not easy for me to open up just how i feel to you.

i find it hard to believe that you ever cared about me you disgust me i still remember the time and the place and the smirk on your face when you forever changed me in a bad place but I'm recovering its a sad place for social stuttering i know i should forgive you but you know its like they say people never ever change so i suggest you stay away i took your pictures off my wall and it didn't hurt at all it wasn't hard and it felt right it must be something that i lack compassion or a heart intact i was bored and you were right i had a feeling that something was up we stopped talking every day you were busy it was strange i went from seeing you every other day to seeing you sometimes at shows we hardly ever said hello now that i think about it i guess it was stupid all along you were dropping hints i refused to accept them whats really going on? i took your pictures off my wall and it didn't hurt at all it wasn't hard and it felt right it felt right it must be something that i lack compassion or a heart intact i was bored and you were right its 9 a.m

Tired 02:36
I'm getting tired of your shit it pulls me deep in regret. now all things aside i won't run and hide it's safe to say were losing pace and getting out of step you can try to make it right but i don't think ill be alright i could say what it means to me truth is that I'm bursting at the seams you've got a lot of nerve to come in here like you know what you're talking about why are you talking to me? now all things aside why won't you try? so i can get some sleep tonight or is that asking too much? you can try to make it right but i don't think ill be alright i could say what it means to me truth is that I'm bursting at the seams honestly I'm hoping this might find a way to you maybe you'll think of me and how you used to like me too it's just the kind of kid i am i never asked for much i just wanted to hold your hand i never had good luck i wish we never met i wish we never met i wish you could try to make it right but i don't think i'll be alright i could say what it means to me the truth is that I'm bursting at the seams.
