Living in a dream, waiting for the outside world to validate my body and show me what I’m worth Don’t hold me down or haunt me I need to wake up I have changed my shape to please you and it’s a waste of time but in my heart I still almost believe that I haven’t really tried Don’t hold me down or haunt me I need to wake up When I leave this time I’m gonna get it right Don’t hold me down or haunt me I need to wake up

When all the other ones would spend their nights alone we’d stay up having fun and shoplifting Patrón But it’s not important now too far in the past to worry about and my friends from high school will all be fine without me and they know it and the stories that they tell about me, well, they’ll never mean a thing Cuz it’s not important now got nothing at all to worry about My friends did not outweigh the price I had to pay and so I went away and now I’m looking back on the lives I used to lead I wish I missed those days but they just feel like movies They can’t be important now cuz I’ve got my real life to worry about My friends did not outweigh the price I had to pay and so I went away

Marijuana 02:20
Nobody likes me I’m on the fringes of life Nobody likes me I’m gonna set that right Marijuana gonna save my life Marijuana gonna be my wife Marijuana gonna free my soul With this blunt in my hand I am ready to roll Nobody loves me I’m sitting in the corner of the room Nobody wants me I’m gonna change that soon Marijuana gonna be my king Marijuana gonna change everything Marijuana gonna rescue my soul With this joint in my hand I am ready to roll Nobody sees me I’m the invisible man Nobody sees me I’ll change that if I can Marijuana gonna fill me with pride Marijuana gonna be my guide Marijuana gonna satisfy my soul With this joint in my hand I am ready to roll Nobody wants me They think I’m kinda strange Nobody wants me But that’s about to change Marijuana gonna be my Pope Marijuana untie this rope Marijuana gonna save my soul Well, I took my first hit Now I’m ready to roll, alright

The Internet 06:06
Oh, my darling across America I kiss you through wire we make love together online So don’t believe a word they say the world’s still getting smaller every second that we talk on Facebook and there’s still time for us I can feel your shadow fall on me when you move on my screen Sometimes it’s all that I need to know that when I wake up you were more than a face in a dream and when I come home we won’t need to do this But there’s still time for us 
Sometimes I feel like the battle is won and we won’t have to be waiting for very long But sometimes you feel much too far to define We’re lost on the line and we don’t know how to find the light But there’s still time for us! There’s still time for us!

If it meant I would never hurt another one that I love I would give up my body to the powers above Let them control my movements like a hand in a glove But even then, I would still worry about the harm that I’ve done I don’t trust myself with this I don’t trust myself one bit Why see clearly when you know know me better than I know myself or anything else? I don’t trust myself with this I don’t trust myself one bit I see clearly that you know know me better than I know myself or anything else I don’t trust myself with this I don’t trust myself one bit

I never, ever wanna disagree with you It’s a sign that I don’t understand that if I don’t keep an open mind you’ll roll your eyes and walk away I’ll wait it out until another day I don’t wanna hurt you if I don’t see things your way Every time I’ve been misconstrued as a man who doesn’t know his place is a time that I have studied through hoping next time I will fall with grace But my hands are garbage disposal blades Can’t help it if I cut you when I get carried away I don’t want to disagree with you but I do and I don’t understand when you say “Would you leave me alone a while, today?” and then you always stay Now my hands are garbage disposal blades No choice but to cut you, make you see my way

I’m not waiting for the weekend cuz that’s when my friends go drinking and I swear one day, they’ll come back with one fewer He was waiting by the deep end and that’s when we pushed him in and he swam, oh yeah, he swam, “I am alive!” he cried before he sank No one’s gonna be my guardian No one’s gonna keep me far from harm So I will try my best I will try my best until then I was raised to be a wreck but I have the best intentions so would you please let me be worried for a bit? Let me be your mother tonight Let me be your mother tonight No one’s gonna be my guardian No one’s gonna keep me far from harm So I will try my best I will try my best until then

You don’t give advice but I want you to, cuz tonight I might start a fight or break off a wire that I didn’t want to When I leave this time I’m gonna get it right and I won’t need to live the lies I’ve been leading A full tank of gasoline is really all you could need You’re gonna leave this town cuz it gets you down and I will come with When I leave this time I’m gonna get it right and I won’t need to live the lies I’ve been leading In movies, it’s all the same I know the rules to this game but it’s harder than I expected when the credits came over When I leave this time I’m gonna get it right and I won’t need to live the lies I’ve been leading

Excuses, excuses What came over me? I’m lost again now Like you said I’d be
