Happy days have finally found me,
I’ve got friends that I can call, I got nothing wrong at all.
Your taste for hatred is astounding,
Concentrate on something small, close my eyes until it’s gone.
Reverse the feeling, sadness all that i can feel,
and slowly it’s consuming all.
Happy days have finally found you,
You’ve got friends that you can call, you got nothing wrong at all.
Half the reason you get up in the morning,
Half the reason you go home.
Running out of borrowed time
Time you can’t get back
It’s the one thing you can trust.
Will you join me on this sinking ship
Or leave me, all alone, all alone.
Never was to good at making friends,
and it chokes me up to know, that they’ll be there in the end.
Now I’m waiting for the punchline,
the stage it has been set,
Its a quiet place inside my head where i sit with my
REGRET to inform you, it really is that bad.
but I'm betting all my money
That I can make it
Half the reason you get up in the morning,
Half the reason you go home.

I saw a movie that I thought you might like where a girl kisses her brother
But in the end she get with a guy a lot like me
He shoots first and he’s really not that smart, standing frozen
He’s a joke for all to see
Like the kid who studied for college
got a debt the bank would acknowledge
Punchline no one’s rich studying history
they say that it repeats itself,
but it’s written by the victors
if i did it all again i wouldn’t change my regrets
Breath in all the smoke that’ll one day kill me
Where’s your creativity Diane
You can’t wish for things to work
Give me a drink or something more that I can hold on to
Keep me warm while away
A double shot, for all the things I wish that I forgot
Keep the porch light on and wolves away
For my 3 weeks on
I made you a mixtape
People that can say these things so much better than me
It won’t feel that long
I say through a plastic smile
Turn your back
I’ll take off trading asphalt for red rock and the comforts that they bring me
They don’t sell that brand out here
The tyranny of distance and what it won’t allow
Till 28 days later
smash some lipstick on, pour yourself another
lay down on the bed
bite your lip and make yourself at home
wait for the call
If you had to do it all again, would you change my regrets
help me breathe the smoke that will one day kill me
Where’s your creativity Diane
You can’t wish for things to work
Give me a drink or something more that I can hold on to
Keep me warm while away
A double shot, for all the things I wish that I forgot
Keep the porch light on and wolves away
