Don't you think it's funny how insecure we feel When we find out that insecurity has this sincere lack of appeal And I feel so distraught about and wish I hadn't thought about it But it's too late And everything that happens now, is just this downward spiral And everything out of my mouth now, makes me almost suicidal And I feel so out of touch, I feel so fucked in half And I know that all I'm good for is a dirt cheap laugh I don't think I can last, no I'm withering away I learned to sew my fucking mouth shut today

We're the. 01:45
When you're around me, I feel so damn sure of myself, my life, our life, more sure than ever before Even when we're fighting, I know you're for me Because no matter what goes down, we will be down like gravity We paint a beautiful picture, we make a wonderful song Just look into my eyes and you know, about this, I'm not wrong I quote bands I don't like, the lyrics make it so hard not to Man those Christians in Relient K, know how I feel about you When I'm feeling lost I hold your wrist to feel my pulse And, I know that I'll alright as long as I have you tonight We paint a beautiful picture, we make a wonderful song Just one look in my eyes, and you know about this I'm not wrong We paint a beautiful picture, we make a great fucking song Just take a good long look in my eyes, and you know I'm not wrong About this, I'm not wrong About you, I'm not wrong About us, I'm not wrong

I'm so depressed I don't think I'm going outside today, I'll waste the day away Eat cap'n crunch and read webcomics, so it won't matter that I didn't bathe I don't like the way your sunrays treat me anyway, I'm freckled enough already Oh you know what's best for me, you know what will relieve stress for me If you would just shut the fuck up You don't know what's best for me I know I don't either, but I could sure use a breather Won't you please just shut the fuck up I don't feel like getting dressed And I've got too much on my plate and I'm not even hungry anymore I'm tired of the way you treat me You think that you can defeat me Just because you're a giant ball of gas, you judge me for sitting on my ass You think that you're so clever Because you've been around forever But I know being with you isn't the answer, because you like giving people cancer I can just sit here for hours, knowing that I'm much better than you Because every night I don't go down like you do I'm so depressed I don't think I'm going outside today, I'm too awesome anyway Eat cap'n crunch, listening to spoonboy, I know I'm way too cool to bathe I don't like the way your sunrays treat me anyway, I've told you already Oh you know what's best for me, you know what will relieve stress for me? If you would just shut the fuck up You don't know what's best for me I know I don't either, but I could sure use a breather Won't you please just shut the fuck up I don't feel like getting dressed And I've got too much on my plate and I'm not even hungry anymore

I don't know what to do with myself, I'm so tired of waiting with my ambitions on the shelf I'm a high school drop out, college drop out, it's a cop out, I know I know but hey what do we know And I'm falling apart like my shoes, it's no use I abuse every chance to break loose And I'm sorry that I'm such a disgrace, your trust was misplaced, what's left is distaste You should give up on me like I have Being 20 is harder these days (x3) I'm so done so done so fucking done with it Yeah I know I fucked up and that's okay, I've put myself in worst situations Some still under investigation I have myself to blame and nobody else, this is something I've finally accepted about myself AND I'M FALLING APART LIKE MY FRIENDS; I KNOW FROM EXPERIENCE THIS SHIT NEVER ENDS I'M SO FUCKING DONE WITH IT Being 20 is harder these days (x2), Being alive is harder these days I'm so done so done so fucking done with it (faster) Being alive is harder these days (x3) and I'm so fucking done with it

SAD Drunk 04:09
10.
Been thinkin a lot tonight about how your hair looks in the moonlight It has been far too long, since you have been in my arms I think I am going crazy, legitimately batshit But what else can you expect, this is what I get for listening to the ergs Been spending a lot of time with my guitar sitting on this bed all these things going through my head, not understanding a word i've said You think I've been getting lazy, but writer's block just drove me crazy It's really hard to keep your head up, when your head is bringing you down
11.
You are my hermoine, and I am your Ron I can't do mathematics, but I can write you a song Clad with wizard references, but I know you love this stuff Not since the battle at hogwarts castle, has life been this tough but I love you, yes I love you I could find you in the library, you'd find me in the great hall You'd have books under your arm, I'd have no books at all But you'd know I loved you from the way I'd sit and stare And I'd know you loved me too, it shows in how much you care if we were wizards, if we went to hogwarts

It's So Easy 02:24
The phone is ringing off the hook but I'm not picking it up I don't care who's on the line, I have been there enough And you know how I get when I get this way You can tell me once or twice, but you know how I am My memory is shot, or else I just don't give a damn If you're not getting this, I don't what else to say Why can't I just fucking die. It's so easy, so easy. I'm tired of being the only one who tries. Just shoot me, just shoot me I'm stuck in these situations, victim of these implications. Fascination with lacerations, exacerbation, emancipation. Why can't I just fucking die - Woah Oh I tried to be still but my arms still shook, there you are giving me that look I wouldn't do this to myself, I always go to you for help -Maybe all I need is to calm the fuck down If you really want my advice, I think that we should all give up A nihilistic approach to life is the only way we'll smile enough -At least until we take a torch to this fucking town And watch it burn down! Why can't I just fucking die. It's so easy, so easy. I'm tired of being the only one who tries. Just shoot me, just shoot me I'm stuck here with the same solution, turning it into absolution brain polution, no retribution, electrocution, execution Why can't I just fucking die - Woah oh

Chorus: Do I have welcome written on my forehead? No! Because I'm not your fucking doormat anymore So when you wipe your feet on me and everyone you know I will send more mud to the next place that you go Because it won't be my house, no! This highway looks familiar, I've seen it twice before That last time I was past these parts was for our winter tour Now I'm without band and without the love and Dealing with the hate from someone I thought I could trust A couple hundred bucks, and not a lot of luck I had fun in Florida but my heart couldn't give one fuck Chorus Upon introspection I was left with an epiphany, which helped me to realize that you were never good for me And if our friendship dies, it will not be me who cries So why should I fight to keep this fucking sinking ship alive It's happened once before, been treated like a floor But one thing for certain is it won't happen anymore Chorus (x2)

Sometimes I miss being at Hogwarts But the ministry suits me so much better these days So for now I'm employed as an auror Trying to make the death eaters go away We all lost people we love at the battle of hogwarts We need to do what we can to stay strong Growing up is what I'm worst at And we're not, so different that way Growing up is what your'e worst at I know that we'll get it right some day Sometimes I hate doing magic But muggle studies wasn't my best subject in school I was better at transfiguration, charms, potions, and apparation But I still feel I've got a long way to go I'm always finding magic ways to get myself through these murky days Growing up is what I'm worst at And we're not, so different that way Growing up is what your'e worst at I know that we'll get it right some day

dragon heartstring core in my 10 inch yew, but I'm ditching this wand and coming after you I don't need to curse and i don't need to hex, I just need these fists - so stop trying to flex I've always been the best in my class, learning everything I need to pass but don't worry I am more than qualified to kick your ass so just meet me after class, and we'll fight in the grass by that big willow tree, handing out whompings for free so come along now, you've marked our path i'll strike this match and we can explode Put your wand down, we don't need spells, there's no way in hell I'm going to let you go I can't believe that thing you said, I wish you and your friends were dead If I could end you right now I swear I'd find a way how to pull it off without dementers kissing me now you're all covered in mud, damn right i'm a fucking mudblood, pal
