Casino 04:26
He’s never been to Caesar’s palace or any vegas strip hotel He prefers the local gaming hall his little slice of hell Stays in the smoking section but don’t like cigarettes They’re a little less judgmental don’t say when to call it quits There never was a reason and certainly no plan Nothing but a habit didn’t feel so bad Used to come with friends now some of them have moved Some of them have families or something else to lose He ain't every earned an honest dime He ain't worked a damn day in his life Somehow he's always got a cup of change jingling Headed for the penny slot machines Turn into a million (hey) Turn that million to a billion (hey) Turn that penny to a fortune (hey) Just something to piss away Half a subway sandwich and a cup of steamy joe Ain't got nothing else to do and nowhere else to go Spends all night pulling levers on a penny slot machine Right on through the morning while the staff is vacuuming He ain't every earned an honest dime He ain't worked a damn day in his life Somehow he's always got a cup of change jingling Headed for the penny slot machines Turn into a million (hey) Turn that million to a billion (hey) Turn that penny to a fortune (hey) Just something to piss away Sun has fully risen and so he hits the road Can't get very far so let's the steam cling to the window Now he he’s by the station no change to use the phone For the biggest gamble ever was to deciding to call home He ain't every earned an honest dime He ain't worked a damn day in his life Somehow he's always got a cup of change jingling Headed for the penny slot machines Turn into a million (hey) Turn that million to a billion (hey) Turn that penny to a fortune (hey) Just something to piss away

Fever Dream 06:24
I see you moving in my line of sight You say I'm crazy but I know I'm right And as I turn to look over there it goes Poof! - Right into thin air I'm hearing voices in an empty room Like echoes coming from an ancient tomb Hollow words they don't make much sense But somehow weighing on a guilty conscience, yeah Living in a nightmare And it all feels the same Thinking that it's not fair Who am I to complain As it drives me insane Well I don't know what to say Living in a nightmare And it all feels the same I'm thinking that it's not fair But who am I to complain As it drives me insane Well I don't know what to say The sullen sadness of an empty home Just digging ditches tryna fill a hole Sick and tired of all the time The shameful pride of a tortured mind, yeah A vacant vessel makes a clanging noise The sound that shakes away your grace and poise I know you're innocent but I'm guilty of Believing I could be someone that you'd love Living in a nightmare And it all feels the same I'm thinking that it's not fair But who am I to complain As it drives me insane Well I don't know what to say

Lost 05:16
My biggest worry in life is I dont worry at all Focused on the landing the adventures in the fall Pick yourself off the ground Try to wipe off all that dirt Realize that you were never hurt Try again or you will never learn Got no destination Not sure where Im bound Being lost sure feels like being found Just like the past and future Im living in the now Being lost sure feels like being found Got both feet on the ground my head up in the clouds Keep my body moving to the sound I try to stay so high and I always end up falling low Strung out with no place left to go Got no destination Not sure where Im bound Being lost sure feels like being found Just like the past and future Im living in the now Being lost sure feels like being found Got no destination Not sure where Im bound Being lost sure feels like being found Just like the past and future Im living in the now Being lost sure feels like being found Being lost sure feels like being found Being lost sure feels like being found Being lost sure feels like being

So Am I 05:45
Got a big idea It's my master plan To get out of here and move on to the next wasteland That big idea It'll come to me And you wait around Cause it'll be here shortly You spend your whole day staring at the sun and you look to me and say youre looking for fun well so am I And in the morning you just stay in bed In the nighttime when the light turns on in your head You think whats the use of trying to live right Cause when you don't lift your glove then its easy to give up the fight Spend all night scowling at the moon Thinking about yourself feeling like a fool well so am I Time goes on you settle down It's time to grow up put both feet on the ground Deep in your heart it just dont seem right What brought you here from staying up all night? Spend your whole life just sitting around Patiently waiting for something going down well so am I

Suburbia 04:01
Quiet streets that don’t have side walks Square acre and a decorated mail box New clothes thirty dollar hair cut Borrowed car never rolls the windows up Eighteen gonna be president Thinks he’ll turn it down he's a little too good for it Frozen food tv through the cornea Twenty minute hot showers that’s just living in suburbia Safety but no one likes the police Wanna leave but keeps clean shoes on his feet Legal fees no new taxes Credit card purchase on some prada sunglasses Call him smart smart But he never did take a note Under sixty so he probably doesn’t even vote What'ss worse silence or eruption Keeps it bottled up because he’s living in suburbia Thirteen knows the way the world works No faith living just to get hurt Clean grass need it just to show off Got more but it never seems to be enough Everything's a problem looking for change a now Planned the revolution step one is throwing in the towel Corn syrup And intentional dementia Change is not allowed that’s just living in suburbia

Luke warm drink should be cold watching the waves No conception of growing old plenty of time to waste Stopped off for fish and chips eatin' like kings Server was looking good but she didn’t like how we sing Late to the show summer afternoon Forgot the words played out of tune Late to the show day in the sun Down the stage ran a river of rum Mind feels right driving home not a care in the world Scenic route on two lane roads thinkin' about girls Three hours since a glance at a clock and the opener's getting warm No practice in a week in a half and I cant even strike a chord Late to the show summer afternoon Forgot the words played out of tune Late to the show day in the sun Down the stage ran a river of rum Show up whenever we want on top of the world Good friends couldn’t look at us still a little hurt It was a mess but what can we say we didn’t start no fight We had the best excuse in the book it was a hard days night Late to the show summer afternoon Forgot the words played out of tune Late to the show day in the sun Down the stage ran a river of rum

Run 05:24
Looking for another place to run Looking for another place to hide Just told my friends they don’t treat me right So I'm looking for another place to hide Gave it a try in a valley but that didn’t work too nice Spent a few years in a busy city Still I can't find a place that I call mine So I'm looking for another place to run Looking for another place to hide Just told my friends they don’t treat me right So I'm looking for another place to hide Looking for another bridge to burn 'cause lately i've had trouble keeping warm just met a lady but she aint lonesome so I'm looking for another bridge Sat down with someone I never met He wore a smile as he turned to me and said where ever you go yea you bring your self No I can't look nobody in the eyes Looking for another place to run Looking for another place to hide Just told my friends they don’t treat me right So I'm looking for another place to hide

Come on in Tell me what you want to eat Well we don’t got that But I can whip you up something sweet Only heirloom veggies You pick your own right out back But if it don’t get cooked in butter I just don’t see the point in that Sit right down now Don’t worry about your size I'm hoping when you take a bite It goes right down to your thighs In my kitchen Not a damn thing goes to waste Well it don't taste quite like momma's cookin' But I think you'll like the taste French toast in the morning So sweet you'll think its cake I'm making lunch So forget the pb&j Stay for dinner You could stand to gain some weight You look a little hungry I'll make you wanna lick my plate French toast in the morning So sweet you'll think its cake I'm making lunch So forget the pb & j Stay for dinner You could stand to gain some weight You look a little hungry I'll make you wanna lick my plate

I like four seasons That’s what I tell my friends down south I got my reasons I watch the breath come out my mouth Sun burns in summer Crispy leaves in fall No matter the weather I love to hate 'em all Can’t drive a car without a plow Still expected to be at work somehow Tired of kicking snow off the soles your shoes So I guess you got them New England blues Out by the fire Shivering and sweating Never perfect But you'll ever catch me leaving No California Though the thoughts entered my brain No Colorado They got better weed in Maine Can’t drive a car without a plow Still expected to be at work somehow Tired of kicking snow off the soles your shoes So I guess you got them new England blues Big bad billy I think he needs a hug He’s getting tired Of white girls wearing Uggs That wind blowin' has made him extra cold He’s only 30 But damn does he look old Can’t drive a car without a plow Still expected to be at work somehow Tired of kicking snow off the soles your shoes So I guess you got them New England blues I guess you got them New England blues I guess you got them New England blues I guess you got them New England blues I guess you got them New England blues

My baby told me said just go with the flow But she don’t see that waterfall ain't never had to row Said why can’t you be happy you’ll be dead before you listen Well babe it ain't that easy for a yellow-bellied chicken Good old fashioned American lies My lady knows 'Cause I tell them all the time What a genius always makes corrections Send him off a running the opposite direction Now her eyes have faded not so innocent no more But I wouldn’t know myself I can’t look off the floor Hung up my rubber soles between two telephone poles She knows where to find me no I ain't coming home Good old fashioned American lies Saw them every time I looked into her eyes Two oval mirrors set back in fine complexion All that I was seeing had just been my reflection Made my life a battle you know I was old Ulysses The General Lee inside of me his rifle never misses He patiently awaits for any sign weakness A flaw in the defenses or hint of confidence Good old fashioned American lies I tell em to the mountains or under any skies Sometimes I believe em sometimes I think they're funny Sometimes I’m the only one who doesn’t see them coming Beaten passed submission supplies are long since low Surrender is the battle plan only choice I know A fight that I had started by a passion and some pride No glorious end for me a prisoner’s demise Good old fashioned American lies Saw them every time I looked into her eyes Two oval mirrors set back in fine complexion All that I was seeing had just been my reflection

Been all up and down that east coast Driving 'till I can’t see through the smoke Hands are shaking, eyes are red Devil’s thoughts all in my head Running from the things inside of me Moonshine straight down from the Smokies Spices shipped from way across the sea Floating down the Lehigh river Ain't the water makes me she shiver Sweatin' while im shaking at the knees Blue eyed girls from south Kentucky Mountain love if I get lucky I can make a mess wherever they be Can’t forget what the good doc said Remember this until I’m dead 'Cause a woman’s ass and whisky glass made a horse’s ass outta me Take care of yourself or so I’ve heard Buy a gun but don’t shoot any birds (Bang! Bang!) Save it till the time is right leave it in the house at night Unless you think you look real sharp in orange Maybe i shouldn’t be driving Menthol seems to stop the coughing Down to only matches now Gas ain't cheap, tanks full somehow Bet your boots you’ll never see me walking Blue eyed girls from south Kentucky Mountain love if I get lucky I can make a mess wherever they be Can’t forget what the good doc said Remember this until I’m dead 'Cause a woman’s ass and whisky glass made a horse’s ass outta me Always looking right up in the sky Clouds or stars I don’t care by and by Only thing that brings me down Brings my eyes close to the ground Is women any man’d be pleased to see I seen so many people come and go I wonder what they all might say 'bout me Made some cry, made more laugh Drank a bottle and a half Couldn't cum and so i gotta go Blue eyed girls from south Kentucky Mountain love if I get lucky I can make a mess wherever they be Can’t forget what the good doc said Remember this until I’m dead 'Cause a woman’s ass and whisky glass made a horse’s ass outta me
