Better Days 03:07
Better days are ahead of us We'll move north and ditch this bullshit We will leave all our worries here To breathe the air that's so sweet Whatchu runnin away from? Why you leaving us all behind? Whatchu runnin away from is what they say Better days right in front of us We survived can you believe it? Now we can be just the two of us And enjoy the life we worked so hard for Whatchu runnin away for? Why you leaving me all behind? Whatchu runnin away for? I still got our dreams on my mind Better days all behind us now You checked out and I'm left gambling I'm taking risks just to feel again The open wounds feel so good Whatchu tryin to hide from? Why you treating yourself this way? Whatchu tryin to hide from? Didn't you know it would end this way?

Bleach Buzz 02:38
We love you but that's all we know It's so nice with my face in the street It's so hard with the wind at my feet And everyday you're stuck You dig yourself a deep deep ditch and jump You're praying on the fortune cards of luck and running out And now you're pouring out soft concrete And you're singing me to sleep You're spilling out soft concrete You're putting me to sleep Everyday you're stuck You dig yourself a deep deep ditch and jump You're praying on the fortune cards of luck and running out Yeah you're running out

We can live it we can sell it if we want to We can love it we can burn it if we start to Just bury deep all the feelings that approach Cause they're choking up your soul and They're clouding out your world So you better knock it off You're losing yourself Oh, but we can't let go Oh. we can't let go Here it is, it's the life you never wanted There it went, the one you never started So swallow hard, it's the pill that's sure to numb you And bring you to your knees till you cannot feel at all Cause no feeling beats feeling when you're living so small Oh, we can't let go No, we're so selfish So we'll never know And it will haunt us like a little kid Crying like he wants to go home wah wah wah wah wah wah wah wah

Do you recognize me? I've been serving you for years And now my knees are shot My back creaks like a hinge I don't own a suit I've got this nasty fear of ties But these golden handcuffs they gave me sure fit nice You know, they fixed my ankle when it turned black and blue They straightened out my teeth, gave me stock options too I know your money is dirty sir, it's so filthy dirty But what's a boy to do? Tell me what is a boy to do? And if I had a choice I would surely speak my mind Except when I'm on the clock I don't got any rights I'm just a dog on a chain, I'm trapped and on display I'm subject to your abuse and at your mercy everyday But don't feel bad for me I'm the one who chose this life I ain't got no degree and I've asked traveling to be my wife SHE SAID of course "I DO" But there is so much to sacrifice So I gave back those handcuffs Now everything is alright We're alright, yeah everything is fine

Co-Workers 02:42
Clocked in My time to tuck in All my secrets they are safe When I change my face I hide it from you Those things you would do We are better off this way It's how we interact and it's such a shame A nice way of saying I hate you Is I won't take the time to know you So disgusted you don't understand And your faith it just can't comprehend You say it makes your soul hurt seeing people like that Living like that Well I think you're fucking blind And it's such a shame You don't have half a mind And it's such a shame
