waiting behind the concrete palace
for the man in the shades who makes the pain go away
waiting behind the concrete palace
watch my worries go up in smoke day after day
and i like to go to the cvs down the street from my house
after i smoke a lot of weed im quiet as a mouse
i want to play guitar but no one wants to listen
except my grandparents but they always tell me that they love my music
oh please tell me is there anyone out there
just let me know

i drove 25 minutes to turner kansas city
to sit in the park while kids chased geese by the pond
i ended up just sitting on her back porch smoking cigarettes
and i dont know what to do now
i cant remember a word i said and i cant promise you all those words were true
and now i cant stop laughing at all the stupid things you do
i drove 25 minutes to have my heart ripped out
to sit in the park while she destroyed her mind
i ended up just sleeping on your hardwood floors of your room
and i dont know what to do now
i cant remember a word i said and i cant promise you all those words were true
and now i cant stop laughing at all the horrible things you do
i gave you my heart from the start

been around lost and found
everything just brings me down
blew up a lot its what im not
nothings wrong until youre caught
pressures aged ive stayed in place
im in a race to i dont know
the biggest mistake i could make
ive drained my but nothings changed
im only made of skin and bone
ill leave without a trace
ive lost more time than i could find
id go far if i just tried
theres so much on the line
so much pain i could die tonight

i pissed my youth away refilled my soul with whisky
you screamed goodnight then kissed me on my final day
i left my home to die i thought the sun would come crashing down
but the world still turns around and i wish it was a lie
sitting on the hood of my car
so high that we could dance among the stars
i think as i drag my cigarette this one ill never forget
this moment will never be too far
i started sniffing speed i dreamed of high speed collisions
it was my stupid decision somewhere deep inside of me
i thrived on all the lies im a suicidal parasite
but i would never dare to fight and rather not try

your towers falling all around your throne
your dogs are barking just throw them a bone
your mothers angry you ran away from home
she drinks and cries all night besides the phone
and you stick your thumb out on the side of the road
and you dont have enough cash to go
back to kansas city
its where i want to be
your car is empty baking in the sun
your fears and worries can never be outrun
this life is endless its only just begun
your hearts unweaving dont let it come undone
and the lights are on us on our last dry run
take the wheel while i pull out my gun

Never Enough

sometimes i feel like you hate me
because i cant find a reason why you wouldnt
and ive been fealing really pissed off lately
and i want to bitch and whine but know i shouldnt
im split between an angry kid who never gave a fuck
or a person who has empathy whos someone you can trust
and i can trust that the fuck i give will never be enough
and sometimes i want to stab everybody
and rip their throats out and never hear their voice
and i just want everybody to love me
i dont wanna grow up but i got to make a choice
im torn between an asshole who is running out of luck
or a life under the carpet living with the dust
and i dont give a fuck because nothing i do will ever be enough

its been a long week and hell is freezing over
the days are growing older my memories
are shining on the inside of my eyes
mother mary comes to me but her words of wisdom seem to be
to cryptic for my understanding
