Give me your best, shot of
Well whiskey tonight
I can tell that it's gonna be a lonely night
I don't want any company

Waking up on the edge of today, just to get to this place
Though the faces have all changed, the game still stays the same
I traveled, 5 cities, just to see you right next to me
But you’ve been running late on time and always have been
I've been known to be a guy who's impatient
Snot nose kids unattended, suffocating slowly while seated
Can't sleep in, I'm just waiting
Until my next destination
When I get back
Will it be weird, will it fall apart
Like It Always Does
You've been keeping secrets from me
You just smile to my face and lie
Almost there but we're put on Delay
Stuck between everything I hate
Won't give up never gonna change
Gonna do whatever it takes

So this is where I find myself once more.
Squaring up the walls wearing holes in the floor.
Cutting myself open to see I’m not the same.
Pulling the pin but fell in in love with the grenade.
I can point the blame.
I can stomp out my flame
I’ve been here before.
You would have thought I learned.
I’ve been here so many times before.
This life doesn’t feel like mine anymore.
2.3.4
I can smooth out all the dents, dress it up and polish it.
You can’t squeeze blood from someone that’s already dead.
This ain’t my first time but never again.
Will I writhe in pain, wearing a grin
Cheap shots hurt worse when you catch a glimpse.
I would talk to this wall but I’m sure it’s a fence.
So beat me down I’ve done worse to myself.
Now I’m in hell and reaching up for help.

It all started so easy and the road was made for us to follow
So we stumbled so blindly
Didn't care where we'd end up.
No more beggars and choosers
I'm gonna do it my way
And when it's over you will ask me if I'm ok and I'll say.
It's alright, I'm doing fine
How about you.
Are you waiting for something new.
Cause you have all the answers but your also the problem too
I could never be content like this
Waiting for the day I find success
Is like the eternal abyss.
There's a corpse with flowers growing on the hill that's our
Dead hopes and dreams on the ground
Don't tell that me
Yhat your better off on your own
Cause we all know that that your afraid to be alone.
You think your such hot shit
I think its fucked up
How for you've come and all you've learned and all that you forgot.
We're in the van now
Flying down the highway
And you’re in the dumpster
Back seat driving all the way
So I say
It's alright we'll be just fine.

Wanna hate you but time is moving fast.
Deep memories, those bitter smells.
All those times that could never last.
All those times I could never tell.
It goes on and on and on and on and on.
Whatever.
Never got the right cadence on the first try.
No one ever taught you how to read between the lines.
It’s not so complicated so why this constant headache.
If I don’t know how I’ll figure this all it all out.
Waking up with bruised bones.
Don’t know how I got home.
See my car in the driveway.
Guess that means that I drove
On and on
I know when you’re feeling down.
You’re trying just to figure out.
It’s hard when you’re full of doubt.
I'm confident you'll come around

Oh Harrison
You watched me drive home drunk
Didn’t try stopping it, but I’m glad you came along
Now you’re whining, begging for money
I know where this check is going
How embarrassin, oh Harrison
Rest my head on your window
Whisper words to keep you moving
Get to the next street, don’t leave me here all alone
I wanna go home
But you’re falling apart on the side of the road
You’re on your own
Oh Harrison, you drove into my heart
But words can only take u s so far
Now I’m whining, it’s kind of funny
What you miss without knowing
No comparison, oh Harrison
I think we both know, this is as far as we go
I think we both know, can’t do this all on my own

There was laughing at the party
And we know that daylight's coming
Now I’m driving back home
Thoughts of you drowned in the stereo
This is nobody's fault or are we both to blame
This bond is another bill to pay.
You can’t break me and I can’t shake you
I know I should visit but I don’t want to.
Just Let me grow
These roots aren't bound in this old grove
So what I’m late
Sorry it's this way
Guilty choices make my heart ache
I know It’s true
and you do too
What more can I say
Sorry it's this way

Anywhere we’re going doesn’t matter
As long as it's just you and me
Always coasting I’ve been floating
in and out of conversation lately
Ghosting me
Leaving this place was the hardest thing
But you can’t take it anymore
So you’ll just pack up all your things and leave
I never knew how much you meant
Until you left and there’s nothing left to say
All these things that i know
All those facts went out the window
Cause we’re not the type to let this go
I can’t live that way again
Cause it almost left me dead
I thought that you were my friend
But we know how this ends
Where are we after all this is said and done now
Or am I just too blind to see what’s real to me and make believe
Showing me
Contentment breeds resentment so they say
But we can’t take it anymore
So you’ll just pack up all your things and leave
I'm tired of this shit but i can’t get enough
I’m wondering what your mind could be thinking of
When there’s no call and no show
And you’re staying up all alone at home
The fault is all mine but i won’t take the blame
Sometimes I can’t cope and sometimes i can’t take
The thoughts in my head of you lying awake
All alone, at home

I'm in pain
You’re in sorrow
Living today
Like there’s no tomorrow
Falling apart
Sleep on the porch
Missing out but
Every now and again I like to feel alone
Stuck inside my own home
Now you’re looking sad with an empty pack of smokes
How the fuck did we run out
I know you're down, I'm heading south
If i stay I’ll drown
Are we still the friends we were before
Seems we wore out the carpet
I know you're fucked up right now
But I'm just trying to help
So please don't pull me to the ground
Every now and then I get just a little too stoned
Heartbeat sets the tone
Now you're looking at me sad like you gotta go
What the fuck do I do now

You and I we're cut from different cloths
but boy did we make a pattern, that kept us warm
Feeling like I'm stuck on a ship that stranded on dry land
and the ocean's out of my reach
When I lay in bed each night
I try to close my eyes
I think of all the time we had, in this shitty fucked up life
I heard your voice on the other line
and I froze inside when you said your name to me
Last night was the last time I watched myself sleep
Cause I'm shaking all responsibility from the person I'm expected to be
We get blinded by the day to day struggles
That we don't appreciate what's in front of our eye's
Living each day like it's the last one of our lives
We're not scared, of waves of change
We keep floating on by like
Stardust drifting through space
Please help me
Leave this place
I can't go home if there's no place to stay
The seasons changed me, and now this spark has died
Give me a break here, give me an answer
Give me some closure to the questions left unanswered
The seasons changed me, I can't be broken
Indomitable I am
These hearts remain untamed

Late night, Can’t sleep
With these thoughts running through my mind
Leaving me wide awake
I wish I could give you everything you need
But I’m a loser and a fuck up
And there’s no money to my name
They say, never gonna make it, and you know
They say, you better let your head hang low
Crushing me for all I’ve got
You don’t know when to shut up
Help me out of this funk
Tell me what I already know
Lately I’ve been drinking ‘til my visions blurring everything
I’m seeing double
Pushing me away from your love
Tell me the moment i fucked up
‘Cause all I’m thinking of
Is how to make this up to you
And maybe all of my dreams are delusional fantasies
She says, You’re never gonna find another girl
Like me, who loves you just the way you are
Terrified of drifting apart
Build me up to break my heart
And leave me broken at the start just like you found me.

supported by 8 fans who also own “Spirits Down”
Sounds like it's gonna be a brilliant progression from the already amazing beach blanket album. Really hoping this drops in some physical formats to have something tangible to hold when blasting this out at home. Everyone should be buying this album.
