Sorry If

Sorry if
So sorry if
Your apologies
Are just some empty words
That mean nothing to me
Oh no
Oh no
I can feel you holding on to
Some kind of doubt
But you've already tipped your hand
Figure it out
Figure it out
And if you love me baby
Why don't you show it
And if you love me baby
Why don't you show it
I made a list
Of all your venial sins
Which you subsequently dismissed
With a congenial grin
Oh oh
Oh oh
You keep coming up at parties
Change the subject to you
I object yet you expect
Me to laugh along with you
You're a bad friend
Yeah you are a bad friend
And if you love me baby
Why don't you show it
And if you love me baby
Why don't you show it
I'm so perplexed
And I don't know what to do
And the vexing question is did you
Did you ever believe in me
Did you ever believe
Did you ever ooh did you ever
Did you ever ooh did you ever
Did you ever ooh did you ever
Did you ever
I'm not losing sleep
And I'm not waiting around
For the tree to fall
Just so you can hear the sound
Oh no
Oh no
And to be honest I'm astonished
That my heart can still break
But there's a limit to how much
Even a hardy heart can take
You are a bad friend
Yeah, you are a bad friend
And if you love me baby
Why don't you show it
And if you love me baby
Why don't you show it
You're gonna blow it
But you don't know it
Why don't you show it

Broken
03:05
|

Why am I broken?
Why are the words out of my mouth
All double-spoken?
I get so tired of self-doubt
You won’t believe me
If I tell you I feel this way
You will deceive me
And leave me hanging on display
But I’ve revised these lines
A thousand times
Through twisted thoughts
And stupid rhymes
And I’m beginning to define
Tongue tied and aimless
Your language fails me once again
So I remain nameless
And you can’t say you knew me when
Still I’ve survived
And all my tests of time
Trace to a different dotted line
And I’m beginning to see signs
Why am I broken?
Why are the words out of my mouth
All double-spoken?
I get so tired of self-doubt
You won’t believe me
If I tell you I feel this way
You will deceive me
And leave me hanging on display
But I’ve survived
And all my tests of time
Trace to a different dotted line
And I’m beginning to see signs
And I’ve revised these lines
A thousand times
Through twisted thoughts
And stupid rhymes
And I’m beginning to be fine

Baby I want to be with you today
Baby I want things just this way
But I don’t I don’t I don’t want to go back to the old days
No I don’t I don’t I don’t want to go back to the old ways
So just sit here a little while and keep me company
Sit here a little while and keep me company
We should put out the fire
Smother the ash
Shut up the flue
And sweep up the trash
And make it look like we were never here
We can make it look like we were never here
So just sit here a little while and keep me company
Sit here a little while and keep me company
Because tomorrow
Tomorrow is another day
After all
Tomorrow is another day
And as we learned as we learned last night on the train
It’s all the same fucking day man, the same fucking day
The same fucking day
Get with the program
Turn your clock back
Get with the program
Turn your clock back
Get with the program
Turn your clock back
Get with the program
I”m gonna give all that I can give
I’m gonna live all that I can live
Baby if I could manage my expectations
Baby if I could manage my expectatons
Well tell me, what could I do?
What should I do?
What would I do?

Brave Mistake
03:39
|
|||
You really broke my heart
You left me sad and blue
You tore my world apart
You took my girlfriend too
I made a brave mistake
When I trusted you
I turned my gaze away
That’s when you turned the screw
I’ve got a bad, bad feeling inside
It makes me wanna run
Makes me wanna hide
Is there any place to go from here
That isn’t down?
Why are you doing what you’re doing?
Why are you doing what you’re dong?
Why are you doing what you’re doing to me?
Well I called you up
Questioning everything
How much did you make
And how much did you bring
At the end of the day
Is it worth everything
At the end of the game
Was it worth anything
I’ve been sifting through the evidence
And what I see it just makes no sense
But I just keep on trying
Why are you doing what you’re doing?
Why are you doing what you’re dong?
Why are you doing what you’re doing to me?
Oh, it’s a shameful thing
When all you’re really doing is the same old thing
As everybody who has ever
Sat upon a tiny throne
Why are you doing what you’re doing?
Why are you doing what you’re dong?
Why are you doing what you’re doing to me?
Why are you doing what you’re doing?
Why are you doing what you’re dong?
Why are you doing what you’re doing to me?

Hostile Witness
03:09
|

Look, I don’t want to be the one to martyr you in song
And I don’t want to make you think that someday you’ll belong
And I don’t want to drag this out all night long
You made a lasting impression the first time you made a mistake
You may live you may learn
You may bend you may burn
You may break
What part of love don’t you understand
What part of love don’t you understand
I am sick and tired of trying to force your hand
What part of love don’t you understand
I was seeing stars
Suddenly I was seeing signs
I went double down
On the grandest of designs
But then somebody broke a bottle of
Love potion number nine
Suddenly something was happening that I could not control
Everything in the past was unbelievably dull
And I had no way of knowing I was heading for a world of pain
But when I came to my senses I could smell it a mile away
What part of love don’t you understand
What part of love don’t you understand
I am sick and tired of trying to guide your hand
What part of love don’t you understand
Well maybe I never really loved you
After all was said and done
And most of our moments they were not much fun
Things were getting pretty cloudy for our day in the sun
You made a lasting impression the fourth time you made a mistake
You may live you may learn
You may bend you may burn
You may break
What part of love don’t you understand
What part of love don’t you understand
I am sick and tired of trying to force your hand
What part of love don’t you understand
What part of love don’t you understand

Only Users
02:15
|

Well I’ve retraced my steps
All around the house
Trying to remember what I was talking out
When I set down my fuckin’ coffee mug
Which reminds me, have you seen my bong
I’ve been looking for it all week long
Oh god I hope it don’t spill on the rug
And hey, have you seen my stash
It was in the usual place, with a little bit of cash
I’ve been searching searching searching
Damn, that’s weird
I wish I could google my room
I guess I’ll clean
Hey man, where’s the broom
This is so much worse
So much worse than I feared
It’s a buzzkill
Only a user loses drugs
Only a user loses drugs
Only a user loses drugs
Only a user loses drugs

Found My Keys
01:54
|
|||
Well I’ve been all around this great big land
I’ve seen deserts and I have seen sand
I’ve been to the mountains, I’ve been to the sea
I’ve been expansive but I ain’t been free
And wherever you go that’s where you are
I found my keys but I lost my car
I’ve been driven to tears and I’ve been driven to drink
I’ve been drive by fear and I’ve been driven to think
That for all of these years I’ve been the wrong road
And I’ve been stripping my gears and it all will explode
And wherever you go that’s where you are
I found my keys but I lost my car
Well will I run out of gas? Will I run out of time?
Will I run out of cash or will I just lose my mind?
And wherever I’m going, what will I find?
And wherever you go that’s where you are
I found my keys but I lost my car

Baby I want you so bad
So much more than I ever have
Anyone since I've begun to date
Baby it's no big surprise
My friends have seen it in my eyes
And they all think you're really really great
And it's clear it's clear it's clear it's clear
I'm queer I'm queer I'm queer I'm queer
I'm queer I'm queer I'm queer I'm queer for you
Baby you are dynamite

You're out of sight
And I think you and me should hit the hay
You've got everything I need
Oh yes you do
Oh yes indeed
And I wouldn't want it any other way
And it's clear it's clear it's clear it's clear
I'm queer I'm queer I'm queer I'm queer

Baltimore
03:37
|

Good golly I would love to go
Out on the town with you
Drive all around
Get lost and found with you
Darling there's nothing more
That I would like to do
Than hit the road with thee
But there's one place
That's been on my mind
It's a Shangri-La with a junk food skyline
A sweeter place you'll never find
Baltimore MD
Let's go let's go
Let's go to Baltimore
Let's hit the road for Baltimore
Let's go let's go
Let's go to Baltimore
Baltimore MD
Let's hitch a ride for the City That Reads
City of Firsts, where everybody Believes
The Greatest City in America
The Hollywood of the East
Mobtown, Charm City
Let's go let's go
Let's go to Baltimore
Let's hit the road for Baltimore
Let's go let's go
Let's go to Baltimore
Baltimore MD
Oh doctor doctor
Got a fire below
And it burns me every time I go
But I can't stay away
From these crab Utz and Bohs
More Baltimore for me
Let's go let's go
Let's go to Baltimore
Let's hit the road for Baltimore
Let's go let's go
Let's go to Baltimore
Baltimore MD
More Baltimore for me

Meat Coma
02:33
|
|||
Everyone I know is a vegetarian
Everyone I know has a strong opinion
About the things they allow inside their mouth
So when I want meat, I’ve got to sneak around
Once I eschewed flesh for a number of years
The company I kept was all academic queers
But I had a need inside aching to be filled
So I ignored the advice and I want back to Rockville
Barbecue barbecue come to my table
I want to consume as much as I’m able
I want to eat my weight and then take some home
I want to slip into a meat coma
Take me to the grille, to the churrascaria
Stuff me to the gills with a panoply of
Chicken, beef, lamb, til I’m well done
Til the salty bits of fat quit melting on my tongue
Lord forgive my appetite has gone to my head
I got a hunger so deep and it must be fed
I am what I eat and I am made of meat
My appetite’s whet from the sizzling heat
Barbecue barbecue come to my table
I want to consume as much as I’m able
I’m a glutton for a little taste of home
I want to slip into a meat coma
Barbecue barbecue come to my table
I want to consume as much as I’m able
I want to go out like an imperial Roman
I want to slip into a meat coma

Cold Coffee
04:02
|
|||
When I wake up so much later than I intended and you’re not home
And I stumble to the kitchen to find my coffee cup cold and alone
Should I thank you for the favor
Stir it and nuke it, try to move on
And forget that acrid flavor that will linger with me all day long
Cold coffee, reheated
Well it never tastes quite the same
Cold coffee, I need it
Though the milk and the sugar have already begun to separate
What are you hiding?
What are you brewing?
Why do you filter your thoughts from me?
Do I make you stronger, or am I diluting
Your darkness, your power, and your reason to be?
Can I warm you up?
Refresh your cup?
Can I awaken you?
Can I awaken you?
Can I brighten your eyes?
Can I make that sun rise?
Can I awaken you?
Can I awaken you?
Is it too early for all these questions?
Do I taste bitter?
Do I taste sweet?
If I insist on cream and sugar
Did I ever really like the taste of your coffee?
Cold coffee, reheated
Well it never tastes quite the same
Cold coffee, I need it
Though the milk and the sugar have already begun to separate
