Weekend

I broke up with you again because it was the weekend
I’d rather be alone again than drunk and in your arms
I torture you with my love and with my caprice
It’s not fair but your misery likes me
Your favorite sport is cursing my name
But how can you really say Im to blame?
‘Cause we’ve both had our hearts ripped out so many times
And Im getting tired of watching you cry
So I rely on silence for defense
Its pretty clear the limerance has ended
As the days get shorter I get bored
So I spend most of my nights drunk in Baltimore
I broke up with you again because it was the weekend
I’d rather be alone again than drunk and in your arms
I torture you with my love and with my caprice
It’s not fair but your misery likes me
This is like sex without a camera
This is like a plot without any twists
Im always the one pushing the limits
Please forgive me for this

Through a lens
You are my friend
Maybe it’s not, maybe its not
Just pretend
I cant hold you in my arms
just my head
And you don’t know me
but you are my thread
In a parasocial way I can’t relate
In a parasocial way I’m not ok
On the screen
You reach for me
But maybe your not
Maybe your not
What I need
‘Cause you’re always too far from reach
…you see
And you don’t know me
But you are my need
In a parasocial way I can’t relate
In a parasocial way I am afraid
But my comfort is your adulation
And we’re voyeurs in this generation

Bender Rainbow

I’m only stable ‘cause I’m perpetually drunk
And when Im sober Im not that much fun
I’m usually on the bender rainbow
I start out fast and come down slow
All I really want is a rush
And yes I know that enough ain’t enough
But I’d like to be be the man you perceive
And I wanna feel my dreams in the breeze
I have never really been all that tough
And I hate asking anybody for help
So I hold all of my problems in
And I let them out when the party begins
I feel the gravity pulling me in..
Responsibility left to the wind
I’m on the bender rainbow
I start out fast and come down slow
I’m on the bender rainbow
I start out fast and come down slow
No control of my background scripts
I might be on an acid trip
I don’t know if I’m lucid
But I wanna find my bliss

Part Time Rockstar

I’m a part time rockstar
But I go to work and work hard
I’m a part time rock star
Still gotta work grave yard
60 hour weeks
I work all night
No sleep
I’m out of my mind
Tired of always being
On time
But you’re what I need
You’re what I’m working for
I’m drinking beers to sleep
And I know you can see..
I’m a part time rock star
No record deal no fancy cars
I’m a part time rock star
Ain’t got a blue check mark
Always making money
For shit I don’t need
Always getting yelled at
By a man who’s scared
That he Isn’t free
So he’s angry
He doesn’t know what to do
So he’s mean to me and you
That I’m a part time rock star
I spend my nights at the bar
I’m a part time rock star
Tryin’ to sing like Bruno Mars
And I know I’ll never amount to much
But I never said that I gave a fuck
I hope you know that this is enough
Even when I’m burned out and workin sucks
I’m a part time rockstar
I go to work and work hard
I’m a part time rock star
Still gotta work grave yard

Shareholders

We once had a big blue beautiful world
We once had endless oceans of trees
But it did not please the shareholders
So fuck my carbon footprint
Its made out of golden cement
And a pesky rainforest of trees
Is only good for printing money
So bleach the reefs, bomb the seas
“Its just an experiment, dontcha’ see?”
There’s only one place to live in the galaxy
We once had a couple more types of species
We once had lives that were free
But it did not please the shareholders
So build your rocket ships
And hack your genetic code
Better lock and load your weapons
‘Cause it’s gonna be a windy road
So Bleach the reefs, bomb the seas
“Its just an experiment, ya’ see?”
There’s more than one place to live in the galaxy
We now have god like technology
We now have endless anxiety
And it has pleased the shareholders
