lyrics

from the fifth floor we have a good view of what the neighbors like to do
they like to fuck and eat and drink themselves to fucking sleep
and at night they look out at us too
because its the same shit that we are up to
from the rooftop we have a good view
of what the neighborhood is up to
they like to laugh and skate at cal anderson every day
for any excuse that they can make. breaking legs on their lunch breaks. i just try to stay out of the way

i can only stay awake
i can only really wait
i can only try to relate
for so many days, in so few ways

from the basement we hear the traffic. it sounds better than you’d imagined
so lets walk outside and watch the cars collide and good days like to have bad nights
so more often than not we stay inside. because home is where the body hides. and home is where the headache subsides
in the storage room where we practice, trying to make better noise happen
i put bad words underneath good chords and our drummer plays until it hurts
and this is the worst song of ours you’ve heard. no worries, the neighborhood told me first

i can only really fake it
i can only really take it
i can only try to be it
for so many weekends, for so few reasons

take the escape you create, its up to you its up to waste
cut your bangs and carve your fangs some words are better not to say,
how good can bad blood taste?
