Sitting on a bench downtown alone in a sea of faces
Wish I could change my luck around but, oh God how I have changed
I had plans, could have gone real far but I lack the motivation
So here I sit an anxious wreck drugged up on medication
I don't dream anymore
I can't even fall asleep
It seems I've lost the ability
And I can't take anymore
Without a penny to my name
I am the new American shame
Slaving away my weeks and days, I was blindsided by the future
Spent a fortune on education and I should have realized sooner
Positive thinking won't pay the rent but I consider myself lucky
At least I got two dead end jobs and my dog still loves a fuck like me!
I don't dream anymore
I can't even fall asleep
It seems I've lost the ability
And I can't take anymore
Without a penny to my name
I am the new American shame
Wake me up, I need to breathe!
I wanna feel, I want to dream
I've felt so numb, it's been so long
Just 'cause it's normal, doesn't mean it's not wrong!
I don't dream anymore
I can't even fall asleep
It seems I've lost the ability
And I can't take anymore
Without a penny to my name
I am the new American shame

Caffeine

Hey doc, I can't pinpoint the exact moment I broke
But lately things have seemed to spiral out of control
My friends are dealing with their own shit, my family all moved away
I don't want to talk to them, I don't want them to worry
Hey doc, I can't sleep at night, I lie awake and wonder why
Staring at the ceiling, my eyes open wide
I used to smoke pot to fall asleep, my job took that away from me
At least there's still melatonin and alcohol
Don't think that I'm pathetic, please don't think of me that way
I'm running out of things to lose, I'm just trying to find my way
My hands begin to shake, my head begins to sway
Maybe 'cause caffeine makes me sick, but I drink it anyway
Anyway
All my family moved away, Jackie says her's did too
She said you got to make your own, that's what I'm trying to do
I know there are people who love me, I'm not really sure why
I'm selfish! I'm trying to be better, I hope they know that I try
Oh God I hope they know I try
Don't think that I'm pathetic, please don't think of me that way
I'm running out of things to lose, I'm just trying to find my way
My hands begin to shake, my head begins to sway
Maybe 'cause caffeine makes me sick, but I drink it anyway
Anyway
I'm sorry you lost your friend, I'm sorry you lost your mom
I'm sorry you lost your dog, I'm sorry you lost your job
I'm sorry you hate your job, I'm sorry that rent's so high
I'm sorry you hate yourself, I'm sorry you hate your life
I'm sorry I fucked it up, I'm sorry I fucked it up
I'm sorry I fucked it up, I'm sorry I fucked up
I fucked up
Don't think that I'm pathetic, please don't think of me that way
I'm running out of things to lose, I'm just trying to find my way
My hands begin to shake, my head begins to sway
Maybe 'cause caffeine makes me sick, but I drink it anyway

Alone

Don't get too close, I don't wanna hurt you
I know better than most the dangers of trust
It'll feel like I'm close, and then I'll desert you
So here's a toast to a lifetime alone
And we just can't help ourselves
But we just can't seem to commit
Maybe I'm afraid of the pain myself
'Cause what doesn't kill you hurts like a bitch
So we lie and kid ourselves
That we're better off on our own
Drowning in our complacency
We settle for a lifetime alone
A lifetime alone
Let's hope for the best, that we never cross paths again
You can heal your heart, I can rest my mind
I think that's the best, if we never speak again
And I can start to live my own life
And we just can't help ourselves
But we just can't seem to commit
Maybe I'm afraid of the pain myself
'Cause what doesn't kill you hurts like a bitch
So we lie and kid ourselves
That we're better off on our own
Drowning in our complacency
We settle for a lifetime alone
A lifetime alone
I wish I never met you...
I wish I never met you
I WISH I NEVER MET YOU
IT HURTS SO MUCH TO LEAVE

Going to Rutland

It's mid October now
A prominent chill hangs in the air
We're loading up my van now
Packing up the rest of the gear
Driving two hours south
Sunflowers along the edge of the road
A dead raccoon further down
Life's about accepting both
And we'll cross that line
Reach the city of Rutland
My sense overwhelm me
Memories come rushing back
An unexplainable urge to see you, to taste you
The relief to finally be back
It's been so long, it's been too long
I've missed your savory smell
I can't stand what you do to me honestly
But I can't live without you dear Taco Bell!
And we'll cross that line
Leave the city of Rutland
Until next time,
Going to Rutland
