I got something in my pocket could it kill me? could you stop it? I never told you quite how I feel how it's so real, except I'm in a dream you can run me over with your motorcycle and I just won't mind please forgive me if I get excited Alison! I love it when you're violent I make music in a basement for a living, ain't been paid yet but I'm certain that it's coming you taught me to believe in the one and only I am the one and only you can push me out the hotel window I know it won't hurt please forgive me if I get excited Alison! you know you're just my kind of girl... and it hurts and it hurts and it hurts to see you with him and know you're never coming home and it burns and it burns and it burns on my shoulder, where I scratched your name in and to think in a year or two maybe I could be someone someone you'd care to remember

my shoot to kill orders just came through and I don't know what I'm gonna do 'cause I have never killed a man before but I'm keeping my weapon loaded I'm keeping my vision straight hoping I'll stay sober for another day the past is over! the past is over! I had to end it! it's falling over and you know, darling don't you? I took a shine to you but you know, doll it's forever a fine line with me but I'll hold you through the night! I will hold you through the hard times! ain't nothing ever gonna come between us ain't nothing ever gonna slow me down I keep a semi-automatic in my bed I sleep with the lights on for good luck and I've never been out of this trainwreck town for even a second a second a second a second a second

I told you once, I told you twice I told you a hundred thousand times I'm not tired of counting! and my voice is sore from shouting! but I guess I'll keep on shouting 'cause I've got breath left in my lungs and I damn well deserve some fun and I have never met nobody with a body like you oh, don't I know we are so much better than this tripped up, pushed down, falling over our heads and shoulders and oh, don't I know it's looking like a heartache situation and I can't take it any more if I hold you baby real close to me do you get scared or feel guilty? and if I touch your lips, on the count of 3 will you tell me sweetly that I'm not another boy who holds your hand not another boy who takes your picture not another boy without a plan not another boy, not another no no no no 'cause I know we are so much better than this tripped up, pushed down, falling over our heads and shoulders and oh, don't I know it's looking like a heartache situation and I... I get released

Sleep Debt! 03:45
I need to stop sleeping! because there's only so much you can do when you're not sleeping and I'm only gonna be alive a little while only so much time I can afford to waste so I'll stay up and I'll beat the rush, beat the rush but something comes creeping through a gap in the middle of the night! and I've got a minor injury there's a hole in my head! I don't know if I can make it oh uh-oh, oh uh-oh but I'll stay up and I'll beat the rush, beat the rush, I'll stay up, stay up this is what I need what I need need this is what I want
