You're Never Happy

Everybody Waits
Until August, to complain that summer's over
But their whole month of July was fucking boring
Everybody Aches
in the winter, and bitches it's too cold outside
and wishes it was summer once again
So Tell Me Why
During the summer, you all tell me that you're bored
During the winter you say, that High School's torture
I know You're Never Happy
You're always trashing something
And Everything is reduced down to nothing
So Let Me Know
When you'll be in a better mood
And I know that you'd hate Christmas if you could
Everybody Wins
In a culture that won't teach you how to lose
And anyone who plays will get a trophy
Everybody Hates
Who they are, but they who they hate
And what they are is just a fucking hypocrite
So Tell Me why
You say you hate my song but you sing it to yourself
Can't say you're okay 'cause you really need the help
I know You're Never Happy
You're always trashing something
And Everything is reduced down to nothing
So Let Me Know
When you'll be in a better mood
And I know that you'd hate Christmas if you could
No one understands that this life is short
You're lucky if you make it 80 years
So I dare you try to me to spend that time
Trying to impress my peers
You're Never Fucking Happy
No one's ever satisfied
With the feeling of just being alive
Please Understand
That I imitate a better man
Being as positive as best I can
No one understands that this life is short
You're lucky if you make it 80 years
So I dare you try and tell to spend that time
Trying to impress my peers

Social Media will be the death of me
So turn off all your games, your phones, and your tv
And you don't realize how fucking stupid you all look
So power down all of your things and read a book
Cause we look
Like a bunch of robots glaring at our screens
Blocking all emotion, they go straight to dvd
And don't even get me started
About the broken hearted people on the world wide web
Cause I Live, I Care, I See
I Love, I Touch, I Breathe
And when you finally see the things, coming back around
And can you have a conversation with me when I'm down
Cause I can't keep up with the new things of today
I just need everything to slow down, to slow down
Why don't you take the time to see what you can be
Without all the things you use to ignore me
And you don't realize how fucking you all look
What ever happened to the things computers took
Cause we look
Like a bunch of zombies tearing down the wall
of Social interaction if there is anymore at all
And do I talk to my companion or a power chord extension?
Plugged into this useless wall
Cause I Live, I Care, I See
I Love, I Touch, I Breathe
And when you finally see the things, coming back around
And can you have a conversation with me when I'm down
Cause I can't keep up with the new things of today
I just need everything to slow down, to slow down
(Finn Lovell)
An attempt to fit in
Cause you've always been, a fucking fake to your real life friends
I know your lies, like the back of my hand
Like how the ocean, kisses the sand
I've asked you once, and I've asked you twice
Is this kingdom you claim worth your demise?
So go wear your mask, but when your Wi-Fi is down
Don't cry over your missing crown
Biiiiiiiiiiiittttcccccccchhhhhhhh!!!!!!!
And when you finally see the things, coming back around
And can you have a conversation with me when I'm down
Cause I can't keep up with the new things of today
I just need everything to slow down, to slow down

January
04:35

At first I didn't know you well
I can't believe you rang my bell
And January was cold that day
And after all of that you stayed
Two years now and I still feel
Just the same through every meal
Like I'd walk ten miles without my shoes
If it means I'm coming home to you
If it means I'm coming home to you
Because January is so damn cold
But there's one day that makes it alright
It warms up my bones just enough for the night
Even if the sun don't rise
You know I'm scared of what's to come
The ridicule of everyone
So take my money and watch me run
And then come back it wasn't all that fun
I can't believe you still love me
It makes me think you should be free
Of all my demons in your life
I don't deserve you another night
But I'd walk ten miles without my shoes
If it means I'm coming home to you
Because January is so damn cold
But there's one day that makes it alright
It warms up my bones just enough for the night
Even if the sun don't rise
Even February is too damn long just because of the snow and the ice
It takes all control of my thoughts in my life
You get me through it every single time
I'd walk ten miles without my shoes
If it means I'm coming home to you

Let Me In
04:16

Are you gonna let me in?
Are you gonna let me go?
Are you gonna set me free?
Do you wanna start a war with me?
Everybody works from 9 to 5
Cause it bottles up what's all inside
I never thought that you'd end up on my list
Waiting on your porch, how did it end up like this?
I thought you'd know I care
A thousand cameras stare at you
It's like playing solitaire cause I'm all alone
Are you gonna let me in?
Are you gonna let me go?
Are you gonna set me free?
Do you wanna start a war with me?
Oh darling, it's you and me against this earth
Raise your fist for what it's worth
Take a second look at my intention
Will you let me go along with you?
Cause you know what I've been going through
Take me for another ride
Even though it's suicide
I'll wait outside your window every night
Baby will you let me in?
My restless brain goes coast to coast
And you're making me wait that's just like most
Remember all the times we left those parties and
just went back and slept?
And if I fuck it up your dad will kill me (kill me)
He'll hide you from then I'm all alone
Are you gonna let me in?
Are you gonna let me go?
Are you gonna set me free?
Do you wanna start a war with me?
Oh darling, it's you and me against this earth
Raise your fist for what it's worth
Take a second look at my intention
Will you let me go along with you?
Cause you know what I've been going through
Take me for another ride
Even though it's suicide
I'll wait outside your window every night

Maybe it's the snow that is numbing my toes
as I stand here
I wait to pick you up and you look like you just woke up
and it's perfect
I worry every night that it's too perfect
And statistics say it probably won't work out
It comes at me like a flood, I think it's in my blood
that I'll always be afraid that
Colors in a spectrum won't always end up together
And one day down the road we'll meet again, we'll meet again
The interaction then will be so awkward and I won't know what to say
And isn't that so weird?
Because at one time we knew
Each other like me knew ourselves
You did everything that I did
The future scares the shit out of me
Please don't ever leave me
The future scares the shit out of me
Please don't ever leave me
Maybe it's the thorn in my side that keeps me slowing that the others
it's eating at my skull and it's getting to my lungs
like a cancer
And I could be dead tomorrow, let's just face it
Or locked inside a cell for my whole life
I feel like I already am, I can't grow into a man
Maybe it's just fate that
Colors in a spectrum won't always end up together
And one day down the road we'll meet again, we'll meet again
The interaction then will be so awkward and I won't know what to say
And isn't that so weird?
Because at one time we knew
Each other like me knew ourselves
You did everything that I did
The future scares the shit out of me
Please don't ever leave me
The future scares the shit out of me
Please don't ever leave me
Colors never fail to glow
But on the canvas they won't show
The saturation is fading and it makes me sick
It's like, you never knew me
(Tom Simmons)
Colors never fail to glow
But on the canvas they won't show
The saturation is fading and it makes me sick
Cause it's like, you never knew me
Colors in a spectrum won't always end up together
And one day down the road we'll meet again, we'll meet again
The interaction then will be so awkward and I won't know what to say
And isn't that so weird?
Because at one time we knew
Each other like me knew ourselves
You did everything that I did
The future scares the shit out of me
Please don't ever leave me
The future fucking scares the living shit out of me
Please don't ever leave me
Don't you, ever leave me
Ever leave me
(Paul Beladino)
