It's been a year since I laid with you It would've been two if I hadn't drank so much that night Your body count is at an "All Time High" My concern for you is at an "All TIme Low" I think you're broken I touch myself in a dark room so I'm not tempted to touch you I think you're broken Same goes for this girl on my screen, yet I contribute to her paid dues The boy you're with sure looks a lot like me The friends you spend time with are just like mine, identical... I know you only want what you can't have Well plan on wanting me through all the pills and one-night stands Your body's like an hour glass but I would rather sleep than spend an hour with you I think you're broken I touch myself in a dark room so I'm not tempted to touch you I think you're broken Same goes for this girl on my screen, yet I contribute to her paid dues

Well, for the last couple of months, I've been playing shows in bars Oh how silly to expect them to recognize a talent like mine, like mine... Oh well fuck it, they don't But the bar scene is nowhere as exciting as anticipating Friday nights every week, our senior year in high school, when we drank 'cause we were happy Now we drink, 'cause we're bored, with our lives, and our jobs And I wanna brake my back, just to see you smile I wanna break my fucking back, just to see you smile The blacker the lungs, the rotten the liver, proceed to explain how last night you delivered, your mind to a realm of uncensored proportions, a meaningless binge with romantic distortions and "How did you make yourself happy when you were a kid?" Don't come near me and my lover with your absent-mindedness On the nights we had a fire we were very lost indeed And I stubbled all around the counter, salvaging a fallen soldier I'd encounter Although sleep was in my best interest... I couldn't slumber 'till I figured out... As a Child what was I dependent on to put a smile on my face? As a child what exactly did I do when I knew I had time to waste? I wanna break my back just to see you smile Break my fucking back, just to see you smile... I want my friends to be upset with me when I decide I wanna stay in for the night I want my dad to be upset with me when he finds out who's bed I'm sleeping in tonight I want a small sense of hostility between the one's I call my friends, and even more than that I wanna work to survive and every bill I have to pay will be the only thing that's on my mind I wanna hate my life because I hate my job, and take all the stress on my wife or I want my lust for musical success to be the reason why I'm cut out from your life I wanna call my mom so she can reassure me that I'm doing nothing wrong I wanna live my life in fear, hoping that I'm never disappointing anyone
