I still remember all those days
When the clouds towered high, as a city in my mind
But now that you're gone I can feel the same
Why'd you go and take it away?
You know I loved you each and everyday
Now I know, you're never, ever coming back home
He was only nineteen
Was just like you and me
He was only nineteen
Said it was just like a dream
He was only nineteen
And was a fan of yellow submarines
My hearts broken and I'm needing some faith
I'm on my own, you're running away
I've figured out why you've gone away
And I can hear him say
Why'd you go and take it away
Know I loved you each and everyday
Now I know, you're never, ever coming back home
Oh well
Oh well
Oh well
He was only nineteen

I wanted you today
But I doubt that you would stay
Here with me or even here with us or even
Take us by the shore
Or somewhere far away
I don't care as long as I am there
So now then
Come and take my hand
(Let's Go)
We don't give a damn
(If it's cold)
You and me in the wild
Two flashlights and a smile
When should I come over
What will I need
Will What's-her-name be there
Oh, just let her be
Come to a decision
What's it gonna be
Lavished duct taped couches or
Run away with me
I needed you today
But everyone is back
(In May)
I've been up since 2am and now I can't stop
Reminiscing about simpler times of
You and me in the wild
Two flashlights and a smile
You and me in the wild
Two flashlights and a smile
You and me in the wild
Two flashlights and a smile
When should I come over
What will I need
Will What's-her-name be there
Oh, just let her be
Come to a decision
What's it gonna be
Lavished duct taped couches or
Run away with me
All those nights in the back yard
Wondering where this scar is from
Makes me think
It gives me hope that one day you'll be here today
But I'd doubt that you would stay

Abandoned House

There's a special group of lads
Who've always had it bad
Likes to mess around
And doesn't know what they are
They're just like me and you
Who don't have a clue
And doesn't take the blame
When they are up in flames
Just imagine
The pros of love
And somehow feeling nothing

Laugh It Off

Just happen to drop by
Well come on inside
It's lovely this time of year
Because nobody is here
It's nice that you're doing well
It's a matter of time
You deserve to live
And have a right to die
I'm trying hard to find my release
The best thing in life that's been working for me
Is to laugh it off
Laugh it off
(Come on)
Laugh it off
Laugh it off
Sup guys
I'll be inside
Just keep me up
To date
I'll be on the couch
Playing guitar
Writing a song that's all about you
I'm trying hard to find my release
The best thing in life that's been working for me
Is to
Laugh it off
Laugh it off
(Come on)

Strawberry Milk

I can't speak, what I mean
And that's okay
Drinking, smoking cigarettes when you were only eight
Is an awful substitute for
Breathing in the air
Do you really care, cause
Drinking on some strawberry milk
When I was a kid
Was the only thing that helped me
Growing up is hell
Growing up is hell
I can't believe
What I've seen
The headline reads
Teachers bonding with the deviants
Job well done
Differences in what you're doing and
What you're doing right
Could be quintessential for
Finding that new job
Finding that new job
(Okay)
Cringey, awkward, student bodies
Trashing locker rooms with colleagues
Met my best friend
Back in the nurse den
Yearning for my homestead
Yearning for my homestead
Now I've had no name
And I've got no fight
What makes me so special to live this kind of life
I can't speak, what I mean
I can't see, what you mean
I can't hear a god damn thing
And that's alright with me
