Cold Rain

Float from one thing into the next
Don’t get bogged down in people’s mess
All they’re lives are cold rain
Go someplace that you don’t like
It won’t hurt to try it one more time
All your fears are cold rain
But I know I won’t go easy
I won’t go quiet out the door
And I know I won’t be frightened
I’ll just be crying give me more
The cold rain is flowing through my veins
And I’ll take more
Don’t work so much you lunatics
Just spend less money and live like shit
All your jobs are cold rain
Be alone most of the day
Let your thoughts just have their way
Your ideas are cold rain
But I know I won’t go easy
I won’t go quiet out the door
And I know I won’t be frightened
I’ll just be crying give me more
Ever feel like you can’t do nothing
To fix the system that been keeping you running
You’re just a cog that’s caught in the middle
It breaks my heart that I’m not a bit bigger
Love somebody with all your heart
Don’t dwell on how it might turn out
All your fear is cold rain
Every human is doing right
Based on what they’ve learned in their life
All you know
But I know I won’t go easy
I won’t go quiet out the door
And I know I won’t be frightened
I’ll just be crying give me more
The cold rain is flowing through my veins
And I’ll take more

Small Town
03:15
|

Cathrine and me at the lake with everyone that we knew
She said she loved me but then what else could she do
Because I know it’s not the choices we made
That lead us here for heaven sake
I know we’re only from a small town
There ain’t much around
Meet at my car after school yeah what should we do
Lay in my arms it’d be cool just laying around
Because I know it’s not the choices we made
That lead us here for heaven sake
I know we’re only from a small town
There ain’t much around
We’d smoke joints and listen to Minor Threat
And everything seemed alright
On your couch and kissing while your folks were out
And everything seemed alright
To me

Long Time
03:14
|
|||
Since I was a kid
Tried to learn all the songs I could
Wrote some pop punk and then
Spent few years touring in a band
Never saw much success
There’s no lesson in Tenderness
But I did have my fun
And now your listening to this song
So I can’t have done it wrong
‘Cause everything takes a long time babe
Nothing good comes in just one day
Everything takes a long time babe
Nothing good comes in just one day
Never stayed with a girl
Til I found one and married her
Always changing my ways
Not afraid of making mistakes
Road a skateboard each day
Eleven years all I got’s bad knees
But if you gave me fresh knees
I’d grab a board, fuck them up again
And try to make it pro
‘Cause everything takes a long time babe
Nothing good comes in just one day
Everything takes a long time babe
Nothing good comes in just one day
It drives you crazy taking that time
Yes it does
Rather be at the bar, get yourself drunk
It’s the way that it’s got to be to do it right
Try to show me another way
You won’t change my mind
‘Cause everything takes a long time babe
Nothing good comes in just one day
Road a skateboard for eleven years
And all it gave me was two fucked up knees
If you gave me some brand new knees
I’d grab a skateboard fuck them up again

Happy Birthday
02:10
|

Well the dancing’s barely started
And the cops are at the door
Bottle rockets in the yard, asking what are they for
The kids are starting shit and it’s hard to ignore
Well the punks are on the roof now
Oh yeah!
And somebody’s spilled the wine
Oh no
The record’s about to skip but it’s staying it time
The girls they’ve got to piss so they’re waiting in line
Happy Birthday to me and you
Happy Birthday to me and you
Happy Birthday to me and you
Happy Birthday to me and you

Bruised Ego
02:38
|

I went out to heal my bruised ego
I went out there on my own
She said we could not go on we don’t
Share the same taste anymore
I went to the places that we’d go
I went looking for a sign
Now I know the things she says she knows
But I can’t make up her mind
I went out to
I went out to heal my bruised ego
I went out there on my own
Tried to die in flames of great glory
Tried to but I lived too long
Every day of life is a story
Every day should be a song
Sat inside and worked on a movie
Went outside and walked around
Felt guilty for not finishing my work
Guilty for not going out
I went out to
I went out to heal my bruised ego
I went out there on my own
