Just Because

Hey
I dug a hole in my brain
Yeah
In attempt to escape
The real world was too much
So I dug my own grave
Hey
Each day that goes by
And I keep asking why
Why I'm too tired to laugh
And too depressed to cry
Yeah
Deep way down inside
Is where my hope resides
It's stored for emergency
Such as if I try suicide
But I already tried that once
Failed and spent a year smoking blunts
Figured out another way to live
Which is live it up just because
Just because
Yeah
Just because
Woah
Life is too damn short
You know you're gonna die
So have a lot of fun while you're here
Because love is the reason why
Yeah
Wooo hoooo

Harmonies:
It's alright here
With you
It's true
Lead vox:
I guess
It's clear
To me
That you
Pull the emotion
Out of me
But I
Just can't
Express
Myself
The way
You want
Me to
Yeah
Help me out
Help me out
I'm freezing
Help me out
Help me out
To feel your warmth
Help me out
Help me out
I'm freezing
Help me out
Help me out
I need you

Learn How To Act

Learn how to act
Learn how to act
Learn how to act
Learn how to act
Be an adult
Figure it out
You got lazy
You didn't follow through
You didn't show me
You didn't get to know me
You can all just blow me
Nobody fuckin' owns me
Learn how to act
But not how to connect
Learn how to talk
But not how to communicate
Learn how to listen
But not how to ignore
Learn how to obey
But not how to rebel
Learn how to think
But not how to feel
Buy into fiction
Without knowing what's real
Buy into looking at
Only what you see
If you could see beyond it all
How lucky would you be?
Everything is bullshit
But love is still the answer
Everything is bullshit
But love is still the answer
Everything is bullshit
But love is still the answer
Everything is bullshit
But love is still the answer
Yeah
Save your face
It's all a human race
Save your money
So you can buy a place
Spend your time
It's all you got you know
Save your soul
So you can have a place to go
What is life?
Is it even worth the living?
What is love?
Is that person worth forgiving?
What is this all about?
I don't fuckin' know
And neither do you
So I guess it goes to show

Competition
01:35
|
|||
|
I got some competition
But I deserve it
I said some nasty shit that
Left her hurting
I guess I really fucked up
But I already said I'm sorry
See I don't wanna be a
Jealous guy
But I don't wanna be
Caught up in all these lies
From fucking everybody
And they don't ever say they're sorry
Oh yeah
One day I'll forget it all
And I hope she'll still be around
I got some competition
But I deserve it
I've said some nasty shit that
Left her hurting
I guess I really fucked up
But I already said I'm sorry

Same Old Bullshit
02:48
|
|||
|
My mistrust
Isn't misplaced
I must admit
I made a mistake
I wanna say I'm sorry
But it's too late
I think it's best
If we go our separate ways
But it's so hard
It's so hard to be around the same old places
Wasted spaces
Familiar faces
It's too hard to be around the same old bullshit
My disgust
Is mostly with myself
I just can't seem to trust nobody else
I wish I could
But I really tried
But I don't even trust myself deep inside
And it's so hard
It's so hard to be around the same old places
Wasted spaces
Familiar faces
It's too hard to be around the same old bullshit
(chorus repeats again)

Here Come the Serpentina
02:55
|
|||
|
Follow the leader
Here come the serpentina
She hails from Argentina
Likes to go to Pasadena
Drinkin' shots (shots shots shots)
She likes it a lot
She drinks a liter
She wears a wife beater
And when she shakes her hips
Boy she doesn't neater
On the dot (shots shots shots)
Guys like her a lot
Baby I'm so tired of being alone
But girl you never wanna pick up the phone
But when I'm with you, girl, it puts me in the zone
But what do I know?
I guess I never really figured it out
I guess I could've gotten rid of the doubt
But I just couldn't do without
Your love
But what do I know?
She doesn't know if it's a blessing or a curse
Every time she thinks of it she gets to feeling worse
Her body doesn't ache when she's dancing on the stage
It makes her feel like a goddess
Like a star for the age
Everything's amiss
But she thinks it's bliss
Does the cabaret
Then she blows a kiss
Makes a wish
Music playing in her head
Lying on the bed
Everything is spinning
As she winds up dead
Somebody broke the bread
And all she wanted was a one night stand
Nobody warned her not to trust this man
He'd buy her flowers and she held his hand
But it turns out he had other plans
Here he goes
Here he goes
Here he goes
Here he goes
Here he goes
Here he goes
Here he goes
Baby I'm so tired of being alone
But girl you never wanna pick up the phone
But when I'm with you, girl, it puts me in the zone
But what do I know?
I guess I never really figured it out
I guess I could've gotten rid of the doubt
But I just couldn't do without
Your love
But what do I know?

Tired of Waiting
03:02
|

|
I'm so tired of waiting
Please God tell me how long
Before I know that it's real, real
All this anticipating
Girl you're the only one
Who really knows how I feel, feel
Every time I try to say anything
It always comes on with some misunderstanding
And after all that we've been through together
You know our love, it feels like it could be never-ending
But I'm so tired of waiting
Please God tell me how long
Before I know that it's real, real
All this anticipating
Girl you're the only one
Who really knows how I feel, feel
Oooh, and it feels so real
Ooh
OOOOO hoohoooooo
Wooo
Ooh
I'm so tired of waiting
Please God tell me how long
Before I know that it's real, real
All this anticipating
Girl you're the only one
Who really knows how I feel, feel

Love Is Forever
03:14
|
|||
|
What's going on inside of my head?
I'm feeling excitement
And I'm feeling dread
Woke up this morning with
You in my bed
Couldn't believe it when
I heard what you said
"If you're just lonely, babe,
Just stay by my side
When I'm with you, babe,
I'm feeling alright
Promise me one thing, babe
Don't ever leave me
My love is forever
I promise you'll see"

It Feels
01:51
|
|||
|
I guess it wasn't meant to work this way
But you know I still believe we can someday
It feels
It feels like it's alright
I guess I could've been the one you love
But that don't mean that I'm who you're thinking of
I feel
I feel so insecure
It feels
It feels
It feels like I'm not sure
At all
Yeah
