the hand that needs you
03:20
|

it seems like just last week
i was commando in your cocktail dress
right where you left me, the roof of the old hotel.
gravel in my knees, lipstick stuck in the lapel
you always bite the hand that needs you
and honey i know i am the same way
but i can't hide the fact that i need you
your pity's such a pitiful shame
such a shame
i spent last night getting all dolled up for you
even trimmed my pubes to some indie rock anthem
now i'm not going anywhere
i'm pretty sure all my friends are dead or out dancing
you always bite the hand that needs you
and honey i know i am the same way
but i can't hide the fact that i need you
god help me keep down this cheap champagne
you always bite the hand that needs you
i'm a wreck, i'm a wreck
you cannot look away
you always bite the hand that needs you
your pity your pity
your pity's such a pitiful shame

suburban lakes
03:32

never ending summer
take our old friends for granted
i think we lost another
to a suburban lake
i miss my childhood
maybe i never had it
oh well it all drifts away
on a suburban lake
these days my heart is bare
and barely awake
these days my heart is bare
and barely awake
never ending summer
every day is automatic
i wasted yet another
on a suburban lake
i miss your love
maybe i never had it
oh well it all drifts away
on a suburban lake
these days my heart is bare
and barely awake
these days my heart is bare
and barely awake
now what's that my friend
what's that you say?
something happened to us
something happened someday
now what's that my friend
what's that you say?
something happened to us
something happened someday

wait it out
03:24
|

i know goodbye is coming
i'm not ready and i've never been
my mouth is dry, i'm running
low on pepsi and nicorette
there was a day
when i wasn't so nervous
and i could say i love you
i could say it first and
now i wait it out, i wait it out
i wait it out, i wait it out
what was i waiting for
a better time to be a better friend?
i should have come by more
time with you would have been better spent
there was a day
i was strong i was certain
to say i love you
i would say it first and
now i wait it out, i wait it out
i wait it out, i wait it out

02:55
|

there's blood on the floor
there's art on the walls
what was it for
when you told me to call?
who are we
who are we to clean it up?
who are we to clean it up?
robbie i know
you had just found god
we found him too
looking at you
who are we
who are we to clean it up?
who are we to clean it up?

fake diamonds
03:16
|
|||
leave your boots and umbrella by the welcome mat
man it's been forever since you've come back here
i can barely get over how it used to be
jumping trains and fences, backpacks full of beer
and now...
man there's nothing to sleep off tonight
our minds are fake diamonds tonight
there's nothing to sleep off tonight
our cheap knock off ideas are glaring bright
nothing on our tongues, nothing up our sleeves
don't let me go, don't let me go too far
convincing you, convincing me
we pray to a ceiling of plastic stars
man there's nothing to sleep off tonight
our minds are fake diamonds tonight
there's nothing to sleep off tonight
our cheap knock off ideas are glaring bright

one of these days
04:06
|

whatever they saw in me
i couldn't see it in myself
got my palm read in a dive bar
left my friends in philadelphia
i couldn't find my courage
i wouldn't know what courage feels like
throwing snowballs at the fountain
frozen over in paradise
one of these days
thats what we'd always say
one of these days
one of these days
never meant to make a promise
never meant to make a sound
i tried so hard to be honest
that the truth couldn't catch up to my mouth
i never had much patience
i wouldn't know what patience feels like
throwing snowballs at the fountain
frozen over in paradise
one of these days
thats what we'd always say
one of these days
one of these days
the monuments are yawning
and i can't forgive myself
for leaving dreams unfinished
and never heading back to philadelphia
i couldn't find redemption
i wouldn't know what redemption feels like
throwing snowballs at the fountain
frozen over in paradise
one of these days
thats what we'd always say
one of these days
one of these days

paper lantern
04:08

boring drunks in their cardigans
bum off brand smokes from ex-girlfriends
i can't get close to you
i can't get close to you without losing my mind
boring drunks with their cool tattoos
all crowd the halls in their combat boots
i can't get close to you
i can't get close to you without losing my mind
if you asked me to temple
i'd kiss the carpet the rest of my life
i can't get close to you
i can't get close to you without losing my mind
don't ask me for that dream that you're after
i'm a thrift store genie in a paper lantern
no don't ask me for that dream you're after
my heart burns itself out
boring drunks with their complexes
all wear them out like they're prom dresses
i can't get close to you
i can't get close to you without losing my mind
if you asked me to temple
i'd kiss the carpet the rest of my life
i can't get close to you
i can't get close to you without losing my mind
don't ask me for that dream that you're after
i'm a thrift store genie in a paper lantern
no don't ask me for that dream you're after
my heart burns itself out

giants
03:28
|

i waited too long
i waited too long
now i'm in the wrong
i'm in the wrong place and time
all of the time
i'm looking over
i'm looking over
the shoulders of giants
from a giant step behind
low horizons, low horizons
low horizons are full of lies, lies, lies
and so am i
i could never believe
i could never believe
in the kind of gods that i need
so i need your love to get by
all of the time
i'm looking over
i'm looking over
the shoulders of giants
from a giant step behind
low horizons, low horizons
low horizons are full of lies, lies, lies
and so am i

boardwalk blues
04:22
|

everyone with a good joke to tell
has made it out of this town
they traded in the friends they knew too well
just for a chance at getting out
well i can't blame them would you look around?
there's not much left of the dreamers they left
i'm a cocktail umbrella in a thunderstorm
watching them drink their excuses to death
on a little fenced in concrete slab
that some dead mayor named the strip
no one's looking for, no one's looking out for
no one's looking for, no one's looking out for
the dead end boardwalk kids
so don't kid yourself honey keep your charity
you've got a tiny green heart of bronze
it shines like gold, yeah it shines like gold
til you get tired of acting strong
i always knew it was easy
it's the easiest thing to turn your back on someone
but you were the first one who taught me
how to make a white lie out of a thing you called love
you're a punch line with a paper kiss
you've got a postcard smile taped to your crusty lips
no one's looking for, no one's looking out for
no one's looking for, no one's looking out for
the dead end boardwalk kids
my best friend died before i was born
my baby brother's spirit was crushed
fate is a little kid with steel toe boots
waving his dick in the wind, pissing his name in the dust
well brother keep your dreams in a penny jar
we're gonna cash them out on a second chance
you're stronger than you think you've got a pit bull's grip
on a second hand suit and some hand-me-down plans
you've got a lot to give, you've got a lot to give
you've got a lot of faith, but you've misplaced it
no one's looking for, no one's looking out for
no one's looking for, no one's looking out for
the dead end boardwalk kids
