I’ve seen this road before
I think you knew I wanted more
The pub across the road is open
So come on down
I admit I feel a little glum
I looked for you, and then some
The storm of swords is nearly done
And I think that
I need you here,
In this New Year
I can’t deny
I never really said goodbye
I know all my friends went out
Though I was busy down south
In that place we saw last year
You know the one
As I drove I saw a ghoul
It hung around the local pool
In the place where we first met
It gave me the chills
This book is huge and I’m going crazy
The adults are wankers, the young people lazy
Someone threw up in the gutter
And I thought of you
Cause the truth was that I waited
I hoped to see you looking elated
Three long days of suffering
Made it clear that
Chorus x 2
Hills abound, so far around
Another day, wastes me away
Long nights awake, make no mistake
Thoughts of my home, feeling alone
Help
Chorus
But I still fear
We’ll meet again
Nothing will change
I’ll always lose our game

You should stop trying cause she thinks you’re weird
You’re pushy and you have a neck beard
Please don’t waste her time and please don’t waste mine
I think you should go home
You’re here but you’re all alone
Stop trying to get inside her
Her friends might have to hide her
Because every time I look at you I cringe
I really hope you know you will never win
Why can’t you just figure it out?
Before you let more dumb words escape your dumb mouth

I spent today thinking about all the things
We left unsaid
The way you walked out of my apartment
And how you stole my favourite candles
I walked home in the dark
With nothing but my phone light
Some shampoo and a broken heart
And now I sleep alone
Yeah I spent today thinking
I really want you to stay,
Because I spent today thinking about the summer
And the way you laid with me on the cold hard ground but you
Made it feel so soft
But these days all I do is sit on my bed
And try to convince myself that what we had
Was more than puppy love but I guess that’s not enough
Chorus
So I’ll spend tomorrow thinking about how I’m gonna get better
How I’ll get through this weather without you
And if that’s not enough to help me through the winter
I guess I’ll give up and start again
But maybe I was the problem because you
left me just after Christmas at a time when everyone was
Happy but you and me we couldn’t catch a break
And I’ll miss the days we sat on your roof
So solid that we couldn’t move
Ill move on without you.
So I’ll spend tomorrow thinking about how I’m gonna get better
How I’ll get through this weather without you
And if that’s not enough to help me through the winter
I guess I’ll give up and start again
I spent today thinking ‘bout all the things
We left unsaid
I’ll move on.
So I’ll spend tomorrow thinking about how I’m gonna get better
How I’ll get through this weather without you
And if that’s not enough to help me through the winter
I guess I’ll give up and start again x 2

Don’t give a fuck about your goddamn opinion
You wanna test me? Well go fuck you
I’m so sick of evil trying to find me
Can’t tell if I should spit or chew
They always tell me the sun will shine tomorrow
Well I don’t know if this is true
There are no gods above us
All I have to say is fuck your faith
Chorus
There’s so much hate
Why can’t we love?
Were all stuck
With our hands in gloves
Now it is time
To stop and think
Before we reach the fucking brink
Fuck Donald trump
And fuck Tony Abbot
Fuck anyone who’s a politician maggot
The poor stay poor
The rich stay rich
And no one even cares
Cause everyone’s a bitch
Chorus
There’s so much hate
Why can’t we love?
Were all stuck
With our hands in gloves
Now it is time
To stop and think
Before we reach the fucking brink

Here’s the story of me and you
Long nights awake listening to blink 182
We were so stuck in our way
I thought that’s the way it would stay
I’ve been stuck in this old town
No amount of pizza could bail me out
Going to youth centre shows
This town is still my own
Chorus
So fuck what they say about moving away
Cause I’ll stay awake till the light of day
With you and our burnt out stories
Makes this place seem a lot less boring
And I know this town is so rundown but we
Don’t need riches we got friends around
Don’t tell me I’m going nowhere
Because I’m already somewhere
Verse 2
It’s me and you and you and I
In this big world in our big lives
And yeah this town is small but it means a lot
And now it’s me and you and you and I
In this whole world until we die
And we’ll burn our lights that never go out
I’ll say that without a doubt
So fuck what they say about moving away
Cause I’ll stay awake till the light of day
With you and our burnt out stories
Makes this place seem a lot less boring
And I know this town is so rundown but we
Don’t need riches we got friends around
Don’t tell me I’m going nowhere
Because I’m already somewhere
