Do Better

Lying in the gutter and I'm struggling to breathe.
Picked a fight with my best friend, he knocked out all my teeth.
My old man and his girlfriend agree that I'm a skid
They say that I won't change, ya they say that's just who he is but
I'll do better, take everything I own
In fact I never, once tried to lead you on
It's just that you were dying, on the cross and he was burning down below
The only thing that I could think to help would be to watch you die alone.
I bet that you were fun
But the only one for me, keeps talking in her sleep.
It's just that I've been burned too many times and I can't help you to breathe.
To think that this would change the way I feel, is something only you'd believe.
It's the only thing I,
It's the only thing I that I could think of that you'd remember me by.
I don't know why,
But you were dying, on the cross and he was burning down below
The only thing that I could think to help would be to watch you die alone.

It's a problem of time.
The only thing that I could like, is leaving all of this behind.
Everybody's wondering what you're still doing in this shit hole?
You only just get by
I'm not one for spreading rumours
But you're walking around in a fucking stupor.
Take everything you can get out of here.
It's a struggle of mine.
You wake up to the morning light, the same damn view you're trying to survive.
Everybody's wondering what you're still doing in this shit hole?
You only just get by
I'm not one for spreading rumours
But you're walking around in a fucking stupor.
Take everything you can get out of here.
Hey! Hey!

Underhanded
03:00
|
|||
Have you ever tried to be, something out of your wildest dreams?
And I really think you got the goods, it's getting hard to deny.
Oh oh the smile and lies.
But if you don’t understand, it's pretty easy to learn no need to hold my hand. (Whoa oh! Underhanded!)
Everything that you need to know in one quick plan. (Whoa oh! Underhanded!)
See those boys they notice you, pump those legs just power through.
Cuz the only thing you've got to worry about is breaking those chains.
Oh oh your love's in vain.
But if you don’t understand, it's pretty easy to learn and I hope you'll please your man. (Whoa oh! Underhanded!)
Everything that you need to know in one quick plan. (Whoa oh! Underhanded!)
But if you don’t understand, it's pretty easy to learn no need to hold my hand. (Whoa oh! Underhanded!)
Everything that you need to know in one quick plan. (Whoa oh! Underhanded!)
Everything that you need to know to please your man!

Look Out

I put the moon in your pocket
I kept the sun up on high
I hope to god that your lying about all the things of mine you say you stolen
Your better be lying, you better be lying, you better be.
Better they call on you baby!
Looking out over the field
Better they call on you baby!
God damn they better be
When I heard you were missing
I prayed to god I heard wrong
Too many lies are just floating, they're dragging me along
But I'm hoping that you better be lying, you better be lying, you better be
Better they call on you baby!
Looking out over the field
Better they call on you baby!
God damn they better be
Better they call on you baby!
Looking out over the field
Better they call on you baby!
God damn they better be
Lookout (whoo hoo ooh oh)
Lookout (whoo hoo ooh oh)
Lookout (whoo hoo ooh oh)
Lookout (whoo hoo ooh oh)

Coat It All In Gold
03:09
|

Well I walk into the room and I take a look around, and I see that nothing’s to my liking.
Everything seems drab and nothing seems to grab my attention, it just all seems very bleak.
Feeling kind of sad ‘cause the entertainment’s done, all there really is now are fires to put out.
Gonna call a man I know, gonna coat it all in gold.
Gonna call a man I know, gonna coat it all in gold.
Whoa oh oh oh. Whoa whoa oh.
Well I sit in the thrown and I can’t help but notice how cluttered the desk is with my feet on it.
Feel the urge to blab, every thought that I have is a gift to the world as I see it.
Take my opinion here as fact, ‘cause I only want the best for the people that I love and the monkeys on my back.
Gonna call a man I know, gonna coat it all in gold.
Gonna call a man I know, gonna coat it all in gold.
Whoa oh oh oh.
Coat it all in gold! Whoa whoa oh.
Gonna call a man I know, gonna coat it all in gold.
Gonna call a man I know, gonna coat it all in gold.
Gonna call a man I know, gonna coat it all in gold.
Gonna call a man I know, gonna coat it all in gold.
Whoa oh oh oh.
Coat it all in gold!

Me & Mine
02:20

Woke up this morning, what did you see?
Shadows dancing on the wall, who could it be?
Woke up this morning, what did you see?
It's just mama and papa making love with the birds and the bees
Oh yeah
Me and mine
Me and mine
Don't worry baby about what you see
Can't mess you up any more than you've already been
Oh yeah
Me and mine
Me and mine
Oh yeah
Me and mine
Me and mine
Me and mine

Pile On
04:02
|
|||
Stuck and I’m looking for a way to make you move.
Back to back, and I just don’t know what are trying to prove.
Start to crawl, the whole world stops as the lane begins to stall.
Try to blame me, fuck your reasoning, I can’t explain.
And it’s driving me insane.
Rattling inside my brain (On and on and on and on)
And it's driving me insane (On and on and on and on)
Seeing red, don’t push me because I’m getting close to the edge. Accidents, can happen seemingly for no reason at all.
Calm my nerves, this is dangerous, I can’t handle this,
I gotta take ten deep breaths, then try to fix this mess, keep in contained.
But it’s driving me insane.
Rattling inside my brain (On and on and on and on)
And it's driving me insane (On and on and on and on)
I’m okay, I tried to help myself but not today
It seems the door was shut right in my face
I can’t begin to think just what you’d start to say.
But it’s driving me insane.
Rattling inside my brain (On and on and on and on)
And it's driving me insane (On and on and on and on)
Rattling inside my brain (On and on and on and on)

Bang A Drum
04:04
|
|||
Just focus on what I have to say
It’s all that matters
The helpless, they lend themselves to prey
Short term, but after, it pays off
In dividends and payroll
Oh my god, oh no
Bang on, bang on my drum
Bang on, bang on my drum
Bang on, bang on my drum
Bang on, bang on my drum
Does anybody think about the future?
What does it feel like?
I’m just thinking of all the things
I know I can’t buy, ohh
Because dividends don’t pay off
Oh my god they don’t
Bang on, bang on my drum
Bang on, bang on my drum
Bang on, bang on my drum
Bang on, bang on my drum
It’s okay to worry about the future
Everybody thinks about the same things
It’s the last time I tell you, the last time I want to
So hold on to something and I promise everything will be okay

Keep It Down
04:55
|
|||
To focus on the outside, is to betray what is within
The helpless reductions, stops before you begin
And I see what you are saying and I hope you change your mind
The holes we dig are endless, growing over time
I took the time to sit down but you were nowhere to be found
Everybody’s got something they're keeping in deep down
It takes years to mend, but who's got time right now?
Keep it down! Down!
I see you as you see me, holding on for life.
The strong heat in the darkness, penetrates the night.
And the questions you ask me, are ones I'd not hear
The shadows in the darkness, traits you should fear
I took the time to sit down but you were nowhere to be found, Everybody’s got something they are keeping in deep down.
It takes years to mend, but who's got time right now?
Keep it down! Down!

Pavement
04:56
|

It's hot, it's burning up on my sole
The heat is radiating from below, oh god no
The black is boring me and I try to scream but I just don't know why
I'm starting to cry
Tears down my face
I don't know why
Feels out of place
Do you see a problem with all of this?
Cause clean always transitions into a mess, oh god bless
The end is yelling at me, telling me things I can't deny
I'm starting to cry
Tears down my face
I don't know why
Feels out of place
I'm starting to cry
Tears down my face
I don't know why
Feels out of place

The Platter Song
05:03
|
|||
It took everything I had, to step away from such a well thought out plan, yeah
It took everything I could have been, just staring at my own reflection, yeah
Well I should have known
Well I should’ve known, when the lights grow cold
Nobody told me what to do, nobody warned me when I tried to help you, yeah
It took everything I could have been, oh a smile and a wink with your devilish grin, yeah
Well I should've known
Well I should’ve known, when the lights grow cold
So I was hoping you, could tell my why I’m even here.
Let me go! Let me go home!
So hold me, tightly, like when we were free
Oh baby please hold me one more time.
Just one more time!
Just one more time!
Whoa oh, whoa oh, oh!
