Looking up at the night sky I see your pretty eyes And I wonder what life would’ve been like with you No I don’t care what they say oh it’s hard to relate I’m not changing, no I’m not changing my ways When the sun came up earlier today And the flowers bloomed beside her face And she washed away the color grey From that moment on I couldn’t walk away When the sun came up later on that day And the flowers bloomed beside her face And she washed away the color grey From that moment on I couldn’t walk away I saw you down at your low And still I’ll never let go Oh tell me I was wrong to be that way I just don’t know what to do But I know you love me too (troubled individual*) I just can’t stop loving you Easy easy, ok ok Tina you’re kinda headed towards the only other car in the lot. You have plenty of time to turn Tina, so just go ahead turn one way or the other. You’re just swerving back and forth turn one way and stick with it Tina. TINA FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! TURN AWAY OR STOP! THE BRAKES TINA… THE LEFT! YOU’RE ABOUT TO HIT THAT CAR!! THE BRAKES HIT THE BRAAKES!! Oh my god it’s bad. I ruined the car. You did. You really did.

Now I’m thinking if I wasn’t here Would anyone care because I loved you dear But tell me baby because I’ve been low and I’m running home for you With everything you said Now I’m watching Always Sunny sick in bed Because I don’t wanna go No I don’t wanna go Oh ya no I never felt so down Oh honey oh you turn this car around Well I remember when we laid down on the ground Sometimes I hate my head when it recalls the time my dog died and I never wanna see that again You think I'm on my own, trust me I'm not alone (oh I'm not alone) Sometimes I hate me head when I look down at the ground and I see that my best friend is dead Oh what's with that frown, oh honey I'm not down I just want one more holiday, where I'm with you and I'm ok Oh when I'm with you dude, I'm your Shag and you're my Scooby Doo Oh it's so hard to lose somebody and it never really helps to say "Oh it's ok" Well I just won't let go Oh honey what is wrong with me

Nostalgia 03:36
Oh I can't go along on this winding road with you These countless hours wasted talking on this couch with you As painful as it is to know the fucked up things you do Although we're kind of broken now I think we'll make it through Tell me that it's all over now Your toxicity is wearing me out Tell me that it's all over But frankly I will always have my doubts Tell me that it's all over now No Ganondorf to fight my way out Tell me that it's all over But I can't seem to find my way out I remember running down to your side Because you were Bonnie and I well I was your Clyde When I knew, the tables turned so fast, oh honey it wouldn't last I hoped one day that we'd travel anywhere It's alright because truly darling I don't care now My love for you is the last thing that I'll share Tell me that it's all over now No Ganondorf to fight my way out Tell me that it's all over But I can't seem to find my way out

Snorlax 03:25
Yo don’t wake me up don’t bother me Can you go now and leave me in peace I want to rot and be left alone And I want things the way they were before Nice. you woke me up and I’m a mess oh take a closer look what did you expect Can you just leave me alone? Well now that she’s upset, she lit a cigarette Stinking up the place and smoke in my head Hey that’s killing me too Oh my dear, well it’s a couple years too late now To take back all those awful things I said about you I’m sorry dear, I’m sorry dear Now when I think of her, I think of me And how I’m not the man she wants me to be And that shit drives her crazy So it all ended when you walked out the door And I forgot what I was fighting for… Oh ya the girl that loved me so Oh my dear, well it’s a couple years too late now To take back all those awful things I said about you I’m sorry dear, I’m sorry dear
5.
Oh I won't be that way Stop begging me to stay I think it's crazy all the stupid things I heard you say Those things that you said yesterday I was just fine but now you're in my head Those pink streaks in your hair appearing now and then Down by the grocery store I saw you walk out the door Then kept my eyes to the floor I don't want anymore no Oh really I don't care please just admit you're wrong I never thought one sorry would take you so long Oh please don't wait for me, dude i'm already gone Oh I'm so out of here, no dear I don't belong Oh every other day I think of what I would say But you won't hear from me I'm not playing your game no
6.
I'll still be here although I don't wanna stay And you'll be home so many miles away At least it's six more months til' May Well I'm so stressed and I really need sleep This loss of rest might actually be killing me And I'm fucking losing it again I was reminded of all the time I wasted here And I was wondering if it mattered, no it's over my dear But I just can't pretend my mind's not moving on I feel so stuck I can't go on my dear Oh every other day I watch Space Odyssey Blowing my fucking mind to pieces while I procrastinate Oh I know, oh I know, but that's the way I like to spend my days Nananananana As I washed my hair and stared down the drain I knew deep down that I'd be ok I was reminded of all the time I wasted here And I was wondering if it mattered, no it's over my dear But I just can't pretend my mind's not moving on I feel so stuck but I'll move on
7.
My existential crisis hit me in my bed last night And I freaked out Because I don't want this all to end I just wanna chill with you So I'll be there, know I'll be there for you You're the thunder, yeah you're the thunder in my heart Oh and I belong with you We'll read til' sundown, Explore the ghost town a couple blocks away and order some sorbet Oh darling there now, my beating heart won't last But I'll be there, know I'll be there for you I'll take you to this breakfast place They got the best pancakes and waffles in the universe Sometimes I like to exaggerate but this food's taking me to space It's so damn good If I see the spacehip land, let's get on take my hand Oh I'll be there, know I'll be there with you
8.
By Your Side 03:40
I hear these voices in my head every night and day Telling me I should leave this place right away Or it’ll hurt me if I stay Can’t stop these thoughts that are blowing my mind away I don’t recall this ever happened to me What did I do to make this chaos start I don’t know what I did to you Tell me the truth, I won’t back out So tell me once and I promise that I’ll be here by your side Oh I know the times we had were cool But know you mistook me for a fool Oh my darling that was cruel Don’t wanna fix this thing we had Because it’ll only make me mad No I don’t wanna be like that
9.
Ok Town... 02:32
I think it’s crazy that I’m always coming back to this town It’s not much better but this other place is bringing me down Those people suck and I never wanna be that way, oh hey There’s a dude on the lot who was skating all alone Fell on his elbow, oh I swear that I could see his bone Holy shit! pick him up or someone take him home He got up and showed me his scars from yesterday Got on his skateboard and escaped into the alleyway And in the distance he said, “hey thanks man I’m ok” Still wanna leave here even though I know it isn’t that bad Leaving some memories and happiness that I once had This place was cool and I never treated it that way, oh hey
10.
Milo 03:57
They say that it’s a shame that there’s no one to blame But I don’t care much about them I’d rather have him in my arms and know he’s safe from harm But he’s now far away (away away) They tell me to move on, because he’s probably gone Well I turned to them and I said Well I can’t be that way my dear You don’t know what it’s like to be like this And I will think about you all my life (where did you go) Because the ones with the badges don’t know (oh Milo Milo) I’m finding it hard to fall asleep And I just want Milo to come home Oh Milo where’d you go I just keep telling myself lies That one day he will soon pass me by And we’d skate to the pier that day and he would clear the way Well I look into the sky and I picture his blue eyes And I keep thinking to myself oh why Oh Milo where’d you go my dear my dear They found his body in an underpass And I never thought it’d be so bad But I tried to move on but I just lost my head and Milo won’t come home Oh Milo where’d you go Oh Milo Milo
11.
Ron Swanson 02:50
When I held your hand and you told me not to ever let you go But I let go my darling because I was a fool my dear And I don’t know what I would do Tell me when you’re down Tell me when you’re next to me I’m not doing anything at all Why’d you do this darling He didn’t love you at all I once loved you honey We’re waiting in line at this Urbana house show And I’m falling in love again Oh it’s just you and me Kinda laughing at the fact that we both don’t have anybody We’re up in your bedroom watching parks and recreation Oh Ron Swanson, you’re my hero It was just you and me Laughing at the stupid things that were inhabiting your t.v. I think about you my dear I think of you my dear Don’t really miss this my dear I’ll never let you go I watched the second band thinking to myself Am I ok right meow Oh it was you and me Moshing through a sea of people that were sweating so profusely I’ll never let you go
12.
I'll think about this thing my friend I wonder what is in the end Oh all the time I've spent and wasted How is there someone in the sky that's letting little kids die All while their parents cry "Oh why oh why" They say to talk to this guy and then the trumpets reply You don't have to listen to someone else That tells the same old fucking story that never ends well I'll watch some Krauss and Dawkins and I'll clear my mind They'll look back at me in pity, but I'll continue feeling fine
13.
Late Night 01:44
Oh my dear Up in outer space Away from here Oh my dear Hope you had a blast when you were here Oh my dear Shining like a star in the night sky Honey this is not good bye for now Oh my dear Last thing that she said to me that night She told me I don’t wanna die Oh my dear I’ll be right here
14.
Oh in the morning when I open my eyes I'm thinking Sonia where'd you go? Along the stars, beside the moon, or in my heart Oh I'm with you my baby girl I wish the driver was awake Oh why'd you have to pass away my darling dear I wish I found another way because I can't now Holding your hand harder tonight Hope I'm not squeezing super tight Because I won't let go, I won't let go I won't be letting you go tonight My blood is pumping through my veins Not seeing movement in your face, but I will never look away They'll tell me that this is the end Well I'll look at them and just pretend "This is the end this is the end" I can't believe my eyes Took one last glimpse into your eyes Before you left into the light All I want's another way to save you now
