Figure Out 03:10
lyrics
Love the town love the town that I grew up in But I never ever want to live there again And I hate the town hate the town that I'm in now But I'll stay here stay here until the whole city drowns I gotta figure out figure out figure out Figure out figure out figure out What I'm doing with my life What I'm doing with my life Loved a boy loved a boy loved a boy a lot And my friends said you should be happy with what you got Until one day one day it all just came to an end When I found out found out he was f@%kin' all my friends He had to figure out figure out figure out Figure out figure out figure out What he's doing with his life What he's doing with his life Never do never do what I wanna do And I'm being being exactly who I hate And I never cry never smile never scream no more Because it turns out that life is just one big old bore I gotta figure out figure out figure out Figure out figure out figure out What I'm doing with my life What I'm doing with my life I gotta figure out figure out figure out Figure out figure out figure out What I'm doing with my life What I'm doing with my life

Teeth 03:54
lyrics
Show me your teeth I need to believe That you have as much bite and grit and heart and guts As me Show me a sign That you have changed this time That you have enough guts and heart and strength to come back To me Come back to me Come back to me Show me your skin Let me know how hard it is to get in That you know who to fight who to hate who to love and Trust in Show me your guts Don't promise that you are tough I wanna know you can fight talk back stand up when you've had Enough And come back to me Come back to me Come back to me Come back to me Show me your teeth Open wide don't shut me out Show me your teeth Open wide don't shut me out Show me your teeth Open wide don't shut me out Show me your teeth Open wide don't shut me out

Crazy 01:49
lyrics
Keep your crazy to yourself Or it will spread like a disease From you to me Put your problems on a shelf And I will treat them like a book I'll never read Well you say you've turned a page And you feel better now You've had time to talk things out And you're much stronger now But I don't believe you So cover your mouth when you talk Or the disease you spread Will cover up everything Stand a little further from me please Or is it your goal in life to bring me To my knees? Well you say you've turned a page And you feel better now You've had time to talk things out And you're much stronger now But I don't believe you So keep me out of your bell jar You know acting like that won't get You very far Cuz I keep my crazy to myself Pity parties and shared feelings Don't do anything for me Well you say you've turned a page And you feel better now You've had time to talk things out And you're much stronger now But I don't believe you No I don't believe you.

lyrics
Take my hand I won’t take you to the Promise Land But I can show you a good time So take my hand Understand I don’t need you to be my man I just want you to understand Who I am Please don’t get me wrong This feeling is so strong No need to ask why When it’s feeling right I get carried away Is that ok? Ok? Okay. Take my hand I don’t need the Promise Land We don’t need to go very far From where we are I understand I don’t need you to be all mine But we can have a good time So take my hand Please don’t get me wrong This feeling is so strong No need to ask why When it’s feeling right I get carried away Is that ok? Ok? Okay. Take my hand I won’t take you to the Promise Land But I can show you a good time So take my hand Take my hand I won’t take you to the Promise Land But I can show you a good time So take my hand So take my hand So take my hand So take my hand

Cruel 04:20
lyrics
I could be cruel To you I could ask you how you're doing And ignore you I could say love And really mean like Hate every day And stay up all night I could be cruel I could be you I could make you Hate me too I could tell you that I love you And ignore you I could measure my life In heartache and shane Stay up all night High on the pain I could be cruel I could be you I could be cruel I could be you I could be cruel To you I could tell you that I need you And ignore you I could say like And really mean hate Stay up all night And hate every day I could be cruel I could be you I could be cruel I could be you.

Push, Push, Push 03:17
lyrics
Like a dog's death march Out into the woods I do what I want And not what I should Lonely gets you nothing But quiet and peace I don't mean no harm But that sounds good to me So I push, push, push You away, hey hey Yeah I push, push, push You awayyyy Well I like you better When you're walking away You sound better When you've got nothing to say It feels much better When you're waiting by the phone And it tastes better When I drink alone This dog needs space To lick her wounds And your well-meaning It just fills up the room With kind thoughts and pity And little white lies And other sweet gestures That I've grown to despise So I push, push, push You away, hey hey Yeah I push, push, push You awayyyy Well I like you better When you're walking away You sound better When you've got nothing to say It feels much better When you're waiting by the phone And it tastes better When I drink alone So I push, push, push You away, hey hey Yeah I push, push, push You awayyyy Well I like you better When you're walking away You sound better When you've got nothing to say It feels much better When you're waiting by the phone And it tastes better When I drink alone

Animal 02:51
lyrics
They keep us trapped in little rooms Earning them more money Than they’d ever pay you They’ll bleed you until they Get their full Like a caged animal Eat at the same time Every day Put on your suit Everytime the same way They like it when you have nothing to say Like a trained animal Animal Animal And when you finally get out You can’t wrap your mind Around what life’s all about So just sit there on your couch Like a tame animal Animal Animal But you can’t keep The wild at bay And one day you’ll Get the urge to run and play You’ll meet a nice boy or girl And make like animals Animal Animal

Stuck Around 03:00
lyrics
I met you on a bender Some time in late September You were much shorter Than I remembered When my gritty replies Met your pretty blue eyes You were much kinder Than other guys I’m not sure why you stayed When I couldn’t behave But I’m glad you stuck around You try to be patient While I try to just make it Another day without Screwing it up You find it endearing But I’m constantly fearing You’ll find a girl Less crazy than me I’m not sure why you stayed When I couldn’t behave But I’m glad you stuck around We got a house together A couple cats together Everything seems so Unreal Like how could this boy Not get annoyed With my Cocky insecurity I’m not sure why you stay And that I’m now trying to behave I’m glad you stuck around.
