At The Time 03:04
I saw the future from across the street Jumping in a Volkswagen That the dude thought was sweet And then again in my buildings courtyard I was sweaty and depressed Running myself hard At the time I Felt Alright Around then we got bacon and eggs Remember showing up and thinking I was late Because everyone got there a little early Yeah the point of the breakfast was to check on me At the time I Felt Alright At the time I Felt Alright See i was doing better But also doing worse Running everyday was a blessed curse I lost sixty five and still pinching fat I Dizzy and angry How did I miss that At the time I felt alright At the time I Felt Alright

Living in sin never felt so good Like a stumble from a bar at twenty years old To a car, waiting to take me home Dizzy and spinning, warm in my bed I don't work in the morning, no overhead Life's cheap, no stress and no grief yet Because I'm feeling like i did at twenty when nothing had gone wrong yet Back when I'd make my choices and feel such little regret I'm feeling like i did at 20 when nothing had gone wrong yet Back when I'd make my choices and feel such little regret See i was waiting for it to drop The other shoe on the floor, the same old plot I've know, time after time You shifted your plans but you never jumped ship On who you were yeah you don't quit On me Consistency means the most to me Because I'm feeling like i did at twenty when nothing had gone wrong yet Back when I'd make my choices and feel such little regret I'm feeling like i did at 20 when nothing had gone wrong yet Back when I'd make my choices and feel such little regret I'm feeling like i did at twenty when nothing had gone wrong yet And not cause my world is perfect, hell I got so much debt Depressed I know that i can lean on you and feel no regret I didn't think it'd feel so good to be treated with respect I'm feeling like i did at twenty when nothing had gone wrong yet Back when I'd make my choices and feel such little regret I'm feeling like i did at twenty when nothing had gone wrong yet Back when I'd make my choices and feel such little regret

Consequences 02:47
Do you remember where we rode our bikes At the end of adleman drive Tore my shins up on the pedals fifteen stitches scars for life slowly covering the gouges, left in my flesh, with tattoos coloring the indents, left in me by you Consequences here to bite me in the ass Consequences reminding me of my past like falling out of bed in my thirties nerve damage from trying to keep pace skipped my piano lessons to hit the skate park that day well i fell and broke my leg, drove myself to the hospital two surgeries, pins and plates Just to make myself whole Consequences here to bite me in the ass Consequences reminding me of my past Consequences here to bite me in the ass Consequences reminding me of my past Like when we used to climb our old schools Getting chased by cops just yesterday Getting sold a bag of stems for forty you won't catch me dead calling those the good old days arthritic, aches and pains my knees telling me to quit My body bent out of shape from what i did when I was a kid Consequences here to bite me in the ass Consequences reminding me of my past Consequences here to bite me in the ass Consequences reminding me of my past

Come Clean 03:31
it's just puppy love but she's got enough pets so take your lumps you teenage wreck we listened to pop punk misogynistic drek finding comfort in clichés that were incorrect I Hate the part of me that acted that way id burn the body and forget those days I got to be alright if you're not okay I was a shitty friend yesterday that's an explanation but not an excuse for the ideals we echoed and the hate we spewed we hid behind boys will be boys no regard for what I said It still mortified me how easy it was to say i wish you were fucking dead I Hate the part of me that acted that way id burn the body and forget those days I got to be alright if you're not okay i was a shitty friend yesterday Growing up means Accepting fault Realizing it's not always simple like you thought Yeah they might be assholes But it could be you Maybe you're the reason they stopped calling to say they missed you I Hate the part of me that acted that way id burn the body and forget those days I got to be alright if you're not okay I was a shitty friend yesterday

we all got our vices faces buried in devices seeking validation from anyone now you're starting a fifth beer pretending you can quit here no one called it addiction because you were young but the parties fade, and your youth slipped away I was sick of holding on, slowly rotting away Now I'm doing a little better better than yesterday Now I sleep a little better better than yesterday Now I'm feeling a little better better than yesterday There's no harm treating yourself better than yesterday now I'm staring in the mirror wondering how we got here an aging punk slowly going gray but as the years past stability came and contrasts the way I used to explain your shit away not gonna apologize, for old bullshit and lies done covering up for you the whole damn time Now I'm doing a little better better than yesterday Now I sleep a little better better than yesterday Now I'm feeling a little better better than yesterday There's no harm treating yourself better than yesterday It's never too late to change your ways Living a little better goes a real long way Now I'm doing a little better better than yesterday Now I sleep a little better better than yesterday Now I'm feeling a little better better than yesterday There's no harm treating yourself better than yesterday

Fences 03:58
they say good fences make good neighbors but I don't wanna see you over the picket and I'm not writing you a love song but I'd love if you'd give a shit cause my ego and greed intersect at a point that's dear to me my crippled self esteem yeah I've been prideful and wrong holding falsehoods close to my chest for way to long way too long now that I'm older I can see everything I did that brought hell down upon me it was me stubborn and hot in the core piss and vinegar, trying to settle the score with anyone life’s not personal hurt people hurt and you just got to let go or fall down the hole because the hate in my gut makes me bitter and all the doors it shut just think what you're missing if you hold on for way too long Way to long they say good fences make good neighbors So I guess I'll smile over the picket And I'm not needing a love song To know that you give a shit

Eatin' It 03:12
I got a knot in the pit of my stomach after getting off the phone with you See I didn't think about what i said and now I'm feeling kind of pissed off too It's just a gut reaction, My defensive nature easier to be upset than own up to my failure got a knot in the pit of my stomach after getting off the phone with you Passive me Aggressive you Having my cake and eating it too Passive me Aggressive you I’m so damn tired of the shit you do I've thought about smacking you in the mouth almost a hundred times But that's only cause you manage me keep track of plans, correcting my one track mind Oh I hate when you point out, I just made a pivot Jumping ship on our plans, no communication I've thought about smacking you in the mouth almost a hundred times Passive me Aggressive you Having my cake and eating it too Passive me Aggressive you I’m so damn tired of the shit you do I got a knot in the pit of my stomach after getting off the phone with you Passive me Aggressive you Having my cake and eating it too Passive me Aggressive you I’m so damn tired of the shit you do

Enough 02:54
Caught up in familiar patterns Staring down a rabbit hole I’ve overcommitted my schedule And i Haven't seen you since god knows I stopped running and watching my diet My social life is at an all time low The days are shorter and I'm feeling weaker When I see the deadlines on my phone Yeah I, I’ve had enough But trust, i haven't given up I, I've had enough But trust, I haven't given up On you On you I remember it being so easy To keep myself on track used to be able to Vomit a chorus With a blind trust you'd sing it back The way forward feels so unclear What's the path and the words to say That I'm doing better than back then but I dropped to ball on my day to day Yeah I, I’ve had enough But trust, i haven't given up I, I've had enough But trust, I haven't given up On you On you Sometime I wish it was still easy But I won't cling to the past You got to grow and change perspective Or you'll do the same things and it won't last
