Stick Around

Took the One Train to the wrong stop
Call you back to pick me up
Messed up the drop
Holding my breath on the drive home
I guess I could stay with Joe, a couple of weeks or so
You don’t have to stay around me
You don’t have to stick around
You don’t have to stay around me
You don’t have to stick around
Keep selling what you owe
Five years just ain’t that long, I know
I could go back to school, just start over
Joeys’ dad says the charges will never stick
You don’t have to stay around love
You don’t have to stick around
You don’t have to stay around love
You don’t have to stick around
2005 was pretty fun
Get fucked up with everyone
Broke into private beaches
Throwing up in the streets
You lost your clothes that night
Used seaweed to cover up, cover up
The biggest lie ever told “you can be anything”
If it were me, I'd stick around.

A Trace

How do you think you’ll die?
All alone or by my side?
I’ve done the math
I’ve read the maps
The Earth she’s laying quiet
I don’t wanna think about the ghosts I’ll leave behind
Something in the rafters haunts me
It’s not the death that terrifies me
it’s not being there to guide you
One day there won’t be a trace of us
Just stardust
Just stardust
How do you think you’ll go?
The urge to stay here longer, I know
This distant flicker
A lonely ticker
Suspended in a Sunbeam
I don’t wanna think about the ghosts I’ll leave behind
Something in the rafters haunts me
It’s not the death that terrifies me
it’s not being there to guide you
One day there won’t be a trace of us
When do you think you’ll go?

Hate Songs

I hate songs about songs
I love tunes about side projects that go wrong
I wanna head out and
Walk off this wine
Cuz no bobby here wants to talk about gear
What pedals I use?
Do you mix into a limiter?
It’s 96k so the NPR crowd gets what we say
Do I ask too much of you?
Do I ask too much of you?
I wanna go home
And watch The West Wing and cry with you
Chess pieces on the fireplace
Coleslaw left out on the fireescape
I like being the last the last to bed
Locking the doors and kissing your head
It’s the time of night
I pull up YouTube
Watch Gordon Ramsay yell at these fools
Do we ask too much of you?
Do we ask too much of you?
I told you that
That Post Rock was dumb
You didn’t believe me and now I am done
I used to ask Paul
If there were still songs
That could drive you to tears?
Keep you from fear?
He stayed very still and shook his head
If it’s not Tom Waits you’re going to hell
I hate songs about songs
Films about films
It’s 96k so Pitchfork hears what we say
Do I ask too much of you?
Do we ask too much of you?
Do I ask too much of you?
Do we ask too much of you?

Open windows won’t shut
Nagging feeling keeping me up
Just relax, calm down
Close the shades and lay back down
It’s not easy for this mind
To not travel back in time
Replaying what I’ve done
Stress about what doesn’t come
Don’t run away
Don’t run away
I’m not sleeping anymore
Searching for the answer for
Who am I here to replace?
Settle down get back in my place
Find the crossfade on white noise machines
Keep my eyes off the screens
Animals asleep in our beds
Or running around our heads
Don’t run away
Don’t run away
A place among my peers?
I kinda doubt it more and more every year
Don’t run away
It’s not the dark
Don’t run away
I’ve been selfish enough with my time
Don’t run away
Just try to to lay back down
Don’t run away
I gadda know
Don’t run away
What drives you home?
