lyrics

"Hey kid you're better off dead
As soon as you make money off the voices in your head"
They said things are changin' true
(Yeah yeah it's got a hold on you)
"And hey kid, you're singin' off key,
Your broken beating heart yeah it just don't do it for me"
They said

So I had to get back to where my head was before
Inside a tailspin sleeping on the living room floor
I have to get back steady just to settle the score
With these beer can ashtreys cluttering the room

"Swing low, carry me home
sing it from the middle of your skinny little bones"
they said, and that's what I'm gonna do
(yeah yeah and it's true and true)
"That's fine, you're swimming in hype
but keep it in your pocket
try to keep it bonefide"
that's it.

I never asked for second chances
I only came to speak my mind, is that alright?
let's have a drink to new beginnings
cause now we're doing
I think we're doing
I think we've done just fine

Hey Matt, you never called back
You didn't fuckin do this
You didn't fuckin do that
Oh yeah I've been made aware
(Yeah yeah parlez vous "Who cares"?)
Et tu seniorita, et tu?
I call em like I see em and I'm over calling you
Oh yeah
