Armchair referee
Cheap advice not for me
Wise words slurred, he said
Maybe if he lived them his soul would be fed
He looks for answers at the
Bottom of every bottle, every bottle, every bottle
Bar Fly don’t know my name
Washed up from whisky-soaked fame
Painting his life twice,
He lived all wrong, wants me to be right
He looks for answers at the
Bottom of every bottle,
every bottle, every bottle, every bottle
I don’t wanna taste like last nights beer
Feet stead in the daylight, sight clear
I recognize myself in the mirror!
He looks for answers at the
Bottom of every bottle,
every bottle, every bottle,

And I know
That you know
That I’ve been quite peculiar
Downright unusual
As per usual, As per usual
In a room you’ve never been in
In a world that’s always spinnin’, what keeps you grounded?
Travel to other worlds in my bed
When napping I traverse mountains in my head
comfortable not caring what I said, what i said
(And I know
That you know
That I’ve been quite peculiar
Downright unusual
As per usual, As per usual
In a world you’ve never been in
In a room that’s always spinnin’, what keeps you grounded?
Dreaming in the light of day
Walking on the Suns neon rays
Dancing Green lights pave the way, the way, today
And I know
That you know
That I’ve been quite peculiar
Downright unusual
As per usual, As per usual
Paper clouds and purple paint
Bathe in psychedelic rain
go outside and get a taste, get a taste
And I know
That you know
That I’ve been quite peculiar
Downright unusual
As per usual, As per usual

Kissing Scars

I used to stay up late chasing women in bars
Now I’m up late kissing scars (2x)
She always danced around ways of feeling right
A soft cloud raining on a midsummer night
Waves against the rock, she’s smoothing away
any inconvenience of the heart that might get in the way
I used to stay up late chasing women in bars
Now I’m up late kissing scars (2x)
She wakes me up when i never thought i’d be found
She dug me from this unforgiving ground
She colored my world, with a single hello
She paints my white picket fences yellow
I used to stay up late chasing women in bars
Now I’m up late kissing scars (2x)
I found myself
8 miles out of town
Wondering what this was about
And why she always sticks around
And I found
That even though sometimes it hurts
I like the way her brain works
I like the way her brain works
Even though sometimes it hurts

The devil you know
is better than the one you don’t
Chase the high, avoid the lows
What’s around the corner? only god knows.
But I should know, but I should know
I mess it up every-time, I mess it up every-time
Yesterday felt just like today
Nothing seems to change, stay the same old way
But, I mess it up every-time, I mess it up every-time
The grass is always greener
First encounter so much sweeter
Than I've ever loved before
What’s around the corner? only god knows.
But I should know, but I should know
I mess it up every-time, I mess it up every-time
Yesterday felt just like today
Nothing seems to change, stay the same old way
But, I mess it up every-time, I mess it up every-time
But, I mess it up every-time, I mess it up every-time
Oh it’s on me, he can handle some more
Sometimes life feels like a chore
But, I mess it up every-time, I mess it up every-time
Yesterday felt just like today
Nothing seems to change, stay the same old way
But, I mess it up every-time, I mess it up every-time

On My Side

I’m watching cars dodging potholes down Wayne
She’s always dancing & bouncin’ ‘round in my brain
Live your life like you can’t abstain
Sometimes it’s hard to stay in your own lane
I’ve got nothing but time
I’ve got nothing but time
I’ve got nothing but time
On my side
Maybe I was destined to be a gutter rat
Momma she don’t like the sound of that
Don’t live your life like a welcome mat
They’ll step all over you, and never come back
I’ve got nothing but time
I’ve got nothing but time
I’ve got nothing but time
On my side
The clock it doesn’t matter it’s the same all day
Sometimes seconds wait around for Stray old Mistakes
Pockets a reminder of a lonely night
It’s hard to survive when you don’t get to pick your fights
I’ve got nothing but time
I’ve got nothing but time
I’ve got nothing but time
On my side

The Dow’s up nasdaq’s down
No one knows
Words strike deep underneath life’s undertows
Rebellions in the air
Nothings ever fair
Do you even care?
Wise and hip to life like an aristocrat
They hate what slackers eyes see
But each of them is worrisome with love
And joyful with ease
Maybe I should cancel me
Will I be missed to go on with excess?
Corporate sponsors with fake pedigrees
No wonder we are all depressed
The Dow’s up nasdaq’s down
No one knows
Words strike deep underneath life’s undertows
Rebellions in the air
Nothings ever fair
Do you even care?
apathy we share is breaking down
the stronghold of my human heart
Eyes glossed over in commercial victory
Fetish for attention as we live apart
Maybe i should flee
the one-use products that took my soul
Why waste your life in corporate matrimony
what will it take for you to be whole?
The Dow’s up nasdaq’s down
No one knows
Words strike deep underneath life’s undertows
Rebellions in the air
Nothings ever fair
Do you even care?
one does
one does
no one does
