I spent the summer drinking But didn’t fall off the deep end I spent the fall choking The earth between my toes began to tease again They tell me this is growing old But I don’t believe them They tell me this is how it goes But I don’t foresee it I filled my lungs with just enough Not to run again But as the winter winds came through You faded And I was gone again They tell me this is growing old But I don’t believe them They tell me this is how it goes But I don’t foresee it This year has been one for falling out of love Family, lovers and friends Where have you gone They tell me this is growing old But I don’t believe them They tell me this is how it goes But I don’t foresee it I called Peterpan last night But he didn’t recognize I guess I’ve done some growing up Im not the kid I once was I’m not the kid, I’m not the kid I’m not the kid that I once was

Dandelions 02:34
Well it’s been two years since the end of high school So why Am I Still Mad At my gym teacher? And home isn’t really home, Because all we do is get drunk At Matt’s house, and piss on lawns at 3am And I’m sorry Cesar, For getting you kicked out of your house, The first day I came back You’re not out of control, I was the one, Who wanted to drink on your roof But there are dandelions everywhere, Because so many people, are scared There are dandelions everywhere, Because so many people are unaware That there Are places other than Baldwin And no one here realizes, that there’s a whole world out there Directly east is for the rich, and west, for the heartless And no one here realizes, that they’re 30-year-old kids Growing up is not making money, or having responsibility But developing, working on your flaws And changing Like humans are supposed to do But I guess, Long Islanders Aren’t really human And there are dandelions everywhere, Because so many people, are scared There are dandelions everywhere, Because so many people are unaware That there Are locations that aren’t Long Island

Tuesday 05:11
I was born on a Tuesday I took two huge gasps of air this world is mine for the taking once i figure out, once I figure out how I am starting to lose feeling we never quite grew out of ourselves we're still kids, we're still kids i promise you this we're still kids i swear underneath all of it we'll sit and chain smoke and drink cheap wine pretend to be grown up all the time when the truth is we're twenty something and still threatening to run away when there's nothing and no one holding us here in the first place i fell in love on a thursday i've held my breath ever since this heart is yours for the taking tell me if you ever end up finding it i am starting to lose feeling we never quite grew out of ourselves we're still kids, we're still kids i promise you this we're still kids i swear underneath all of it

skin/bone 03:41
I wish that you’d walk through my door Maybe I deserve to be alone You told me it’s not my fault You had to find yourself And I found myself lost I’m taking back your thoughts Out of my head Out of my heart I’m pushing out your ghost Out of my bed Out of my home And when you leave Will there be anything left of me? How is it you’ve got every part of me How is it that I’m left with nothing I’m afraid to say that I’m strong I know one day that I won’t be left Just skin and bone I’m taking back your thoughts Out of my head Out of my heart I’m pushing out your ghost Out of my bed Out of my home

Splinters 03:12
Tangled in winters veins You ran away, you ran away These bare trees look just like the splinters in my skin I searched for a long while In your eyes, In your smile Say those words, I promise I’m ready this time Your cowardice It never seemed to falter and You were just a boy Looking to become a man But you won’t find it breaking down like you did I’ve been grinding my teeth since that One time at her apartment My gums were bleeding, I was shaking- cold sweats I wasn’t dreaming so I guess it’s all worth it x4 Your cowardice It never seemed to falter and You were just a boy Looking to become a man But you won’t find it breaking down like you did Your cowardice It never seemed to falter and You were just a boy Looking to become a man But you won’t find it breaking down like you did
