Pacific Beach

They never tell ya how hard it is til you get here, I’m still finding my way
And maybe if I was back home I could tell ya, I’d still be searching in rain
It’s easier to stall, easier to leave
But through the years, travel, and the pain
It’s never easy, no it’s never easy to stay
I wanna live in Pacific Beach where everything feels okay
I will ride along this coast until I feel safe
And we will find our place no matter how far apart
There is always a place to pick yourself up
I will find myself making these lists, before or after the wall
That I’ve hit, feels like a punch to your gut
You get kicked, now does it wake you up
And maybe if I was back home I could tell ya, I’d still be searching in rain
But through all the travel and the pain
It’s never easy, no, when they tell ya to stay
I wanna live in Pacific Beach where everything feels okay
I will ride along this coast until I feel safe
And we will find our place no matter how far apart
There is always a place to pick yourself up
And all the heavens fall to sleep where you now lay
The minute you take hold they’ll carry you back up
Back to where you belong, no matter how long you’ve been drunk…
I wanna live in Pacific Beach where everything feels okay
I will ride along this coast until I feel safe
And we will find our place no matter how far apart
There is always a place to pick yourself up
I came here for a moment that I never got
A permanent vacation, where no one tells you you’re wrong
You’re not sure if you’re right, and your string gets cut
And maybe if I was back home I could tell ya, but I’m at Nick’s trying to pick myself up

Waste Nation
03:25
|
|||
|
I miss the days when MTV used to play videos and punk sold out
Just the days to ourselves, Ren & Stimpy and now
We wear suites but we still live in the cartoon idiot screams
And lifestyle magazines
Waste Nation, come and bail me out
Waste Nation, I think I’ve fallen in
Waste Nation, come and bail me out
Waste Nation, for those know how to fit in
And he says it’s in sin
Yea, you de-evolve in a world where everyone is a star
Just an east coast kid living in a west coast world
Will he ever wake up, will he ever know
And they’ll never win, no they’ll never win
Waste Nation, come and bail me out
Waste Nation, I think I’ve fallen in
Waste Nation, come and bail me out
Waste Nation, for those know how to fit in
Waste Nation, come and bail me out
Waste Nation, I think I’ve fallen in
Waste Nation, come and bail
Come and bail, come and bail me out
I am the tendencies un-acted upon
Memories that faded
And I still believe I bleed, I still believe I bleed
It’s not what the kids want, it’s not what the kids want
Waste Nation, come and bail me out
Waste Nation, I think I’ve fallen in
Waste Nation, come and bail me out
Waste Nation, for those know how to fit in
Waste Nation, come and bail me out
Waste Nation, I think I’ve fallen in
Waste Nation, come and bail
Come and bail, come and bail me out

Seattle Day
03:48
|
|||
|
Emily lays in bed, stares at the screen
At all the places she’s never been
This pillow it can’t replace a person
She’s always searching, always waiting
She don’t believe in religion
Says it don’t matter what you believe in
Just as you belong in something
We’re all incomplete according to our gods
We’re not sure who we even are
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh And they’re hoping for better weather
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, And they’re hoping things get better
I’m under the skyline and I feel so alive
Across the windowpane
Another Seattle day
Too many ways to say goodbye
But oh, to begin
Too many pull the blinds
Outside looking in she knows
They’re just wasting their time
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh And they’re hoping for better weather
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, And they’re hoping things get better
I’m under the skyline and I feel so alive
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh And they’re hoping for better weather
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, And they’re hoping things get better
I’m under the skyline and I feel so alive

Boomerang
03:36
|

|
Walking as a shadow
Forgot he had his own
Got fenced into the weeds
They tell ya you’re too stubborn
Saw the world, won’t you come back
You’re searching miles before your feet
Sometimes you can’t, you just can’t believe
It’s hard to see outside the life of your dreams
Boomerang you are stalled out, just spinning around
Spinning around
Sometimes he jumps
Before it’s safe to land
Volatile and young
He’s a boomerang
Yea, and you are no different
When your country starts from scratch
It takes another angle, takes a balancing act
Sometimes you can’t, you just can’t believe
It’s hard to see outside the life of your dreams
Boomerang you are stalled out, just spinning around
Spinning around
Don’t fall back down because you’re further than the rest of them
You’re anchored down but you will come back out greater than
Don’t stop believing ‘cause the pressure can’t hold you down
The pressure can't hold you down
You’ll boomerang

Broken
04:08
|
|||
|
I hold tight all of these aspirations
You liberate all of my inspiration
Nervous from all of the time spent chasing
I sing strong arms to wrap around the thorns
I know that love’s a cure for the broken man
These punches we take I won’t let ‘em break ourselves
Come like a saint and fix me as best you can
These punches we take I won’t let ‘em break ourselves
In a faith we never speak aloud
Once reserved my head is open now
You float in and out of reach, I’d ditch these stubborn habits
I call strong arms to wrap around
I know that love’s a cure for the broken man
These punches we take I won’t let ‘em break ourselves
Come like a saint and fix me as best you can
These punches we take I won’t let ‘em break ourselves
And if we should slip
We’ll tie these loose ends
And choke all the fears that cloud our heavy minds
I am the addict stuck deep in the code
To find nobody ever gets it, ever gets it
I know that love’s a cure for the broken man
These punches we take I won’t let ‘em break ourselves
Come like a saint and fix me as best you can
These punches we take I won’t let ‘em break ourselves
These punches we take I won’t let ‘em break me
No I won’t let ‘em break me, break me

This Is Not Me
03:52
|
|||
|
This is not me, I am not here, I haven’t been around
Or maybe I woke up, finally took a breath, and walked away from it all
But I still feel a faint but lonely ringing that’ll never go away
And I’ll be here living in my own state of mind, and I won’t let you in
This open heart I’ve tried to keep free
But they killed it and it’s killing me
This is not me, no this is not me, what tune am I singing
These melodies in shallow company, I love them all like family
But I cannot stay here, I run from all my thoughts, and aggravation's kicking in
And I’ll be here, living in my own state of mind, and I won’t let you in
This open heart I’ve tried to keep free
But they killed it and it’s killing me
These melodies nobody ever keeps
So lonely
They’re so lonely so lonely

Joe Cool
03:58

Joe Cool burned all his suits and ties passion
Starting over in his life
Spends all his time trying to get it right
He gets wasted every night
Joe Cool kicks back off to the sidelines, watch the wheel spin
People talk in double life
Free advice from those who keep on trying at the bar stool
In the streets they sell their rights
In summer weather everything is fine
Combed over, shaved right
Catalyze a sleeping night where dreams are held tight
He don’t know what it means to take a chance
Wah Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Wah Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Joe Cool burns all his energy just to feel
So damn empty
In summer weather everything is fine
Combed over, shaved right
Catalyze a sleeping night where dreams are held tight
Relaxed, time unwinds
A better chance he’ll find
To take a chance
Wah Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Wah Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh…

N49
05:18
|

|
And they make you believe that you’re free
Just another night in the city
Took the 49 back to Chelsea
As you stand and wait for the lights
Turn strangers into friends
Do you get a second chance?
I always wondered why they called it World’s End
I never rode it that far
Just take me back to where I belong
I never worried ‘bout the people causing trouble
They never know where they are
Just take me back to where I belong
Do you feel like just a number?
She asked me down at the pubs
I walk pavement in the dark
Never really sure where I’ll end up
As you stand and wait for the lights
Check on your phone again
Do you get a second chance?
I always wondered why they called it World’s End
I never rode it that far
Just take me back to where I belong
I never worried ‘bout the people causing trouble
They never know where they are
Just take me back to where I belong
It comes, it goes,
And on I ride
Into the night, I feel alive
It's on my mind, the reasons why
Vibrations and the sounds of night
And on it goes, the blinding lights
I see it through the rearview
Say, where you been? It's been too long
I'm coming home, I'm coming home tonight
