I'm so detached from what I do
I'm this person I never knew I could be
But in the end its just me
I'm doing things I wouldn’t do
Things that remind me of you
Things that make me black and blue
Things that I thought that I got through
I'm doing things I wouldn’t do
Doing things that seem so new
Taking things out of the blue
Forgetting things I thought I knew
I'm someone else sometimes
That repeats all the same lines
Coincidence that it all rhymes
I find I’m someone else sometimes
I'm someone else sometimes
That repeats all the same lines
Coincidence that it all rhymes
I find I’m someone else sometimes
Now you’re just someone else I knew
Someone else that put me through
Things I put aside to do
Only things that I wanted to
You’re someone else I knew
Someone else that put me through
Things I thought I wanted to
Things that we put aside to do
I heard you listened to Brand New
And made your mind on what to do
I hope that you can just get through
Whatever has been haunting you
I hope you liked Brand New
Those words just ring so true
No thoughts about the girls I knew
These songs just make me think of you
And all the things we’ll never do
All the dreams that won’t come true
I hope you settle where you are
And never want to start a new
But if you change your mind real soon
I’ll be on the 122
We’ll make a life out of the blue
A life where its just me and you

Summer Sun Songs

I'm so happy that we still get sunshine
Even though we get rain
The days are so much longer but the nights are still filled with pain
I’m so happy that we’re still drinking
Even though we’re now sane
Lets carry on, lets get dumb fuck drunk so we’ll never do it again
I’ll try to grow up, if you let me
I might make the same mistakes but I’ll see the difference between
Being such an asshole, I’ll try to act my age
Just give me one more chance and I’ll never do it again
I’m so happy that the airs warm
With a cold breeze on our face
The days are so much wilder,
We’re drinking hard and at a steady pace
I’m so happy that the rivers cold
Even though it don’t smell right
Lets jump right in, lets get Weil's disease and hope the rats don’t start to bite
I’ll try to grow up, if you let me
I might make the same mistakes but I’ll see the difference between
Being such an asshole, I’ll try to act my age
Just give me one more chance and I’ll never do it again
The boy prince has left us
For a better place
Now we’re at the spot,
Cooking up a mull to send us into hyperspace
And when we’re up there we’ll see you
I hope you look the same
Just guide us back to the earth below and come and join us once again
I’ll try to grow up, if you let me
I might make the same mistakes but I’ll see the difference between
Being such an asshole, I’ll try to act my age
Just give me one more chance and I’ll never do it again

I guess a good starting point would be to watch Garden State together
Then for the next three days, we’ll stay in, out of all this bad weather
A few more films and we’ll be deep in thinking that we’ve lived our lives
We’ll watch the rest, and get caught up with all of Hollywoods romantic lies
I think the fourth film we should watch, should be something about lost time
Or maybe some music film, we could try Walk The Line
It gets really sad at parts, so don’t ever see it as your duty
To stay around for another week or two,
A few more films, popcorn and American Beauty
I’ve seen these films from time to time
I've Watched them with many lovers of mine
We’ve all felt sad, we’ve all just cried
At last I’m here, at last I’ve tried
Do you think its time? We should watch The Notebook.
I heard its really serious, and you know what, with my outlook
I’ll get too attached and I won’t ever let you go
I’ll be by your side forever, just so you know
I’ve seen these films from time to time
Watched them with many lovers of mine
We’ve all felt sad, we’ve all just cried
At last I’m here, at last I’ve tried
I’ve seen these films from time to time
Watched them with many lovers of mine

Cast Away

I know that drinking slows me down
But there's something wrong with my brain
Something I can't figure out
No single breath, silence draws round
It swallows me into a place where I can never make a sound
My gears have stopped
And I know what haunts this town
The thought of it just brings me down
Frozen still and static to the bone
Cast Away,
Sent into the darkest place alone
Cast Away,
A land that you can finally call your own
Cast Away,
To settle in the place of the unknown
And live amongst the men of stone

The Same Old Dream
03:35

There’s not too many things I’ve done
Still no places I have been
I’m still stuck in this old town
Trying to live the dream
And I see the same old faces
And I have the same old dream
I wait for days and days on end
In anxious harmony
I think I need a bicycle
And I’ll ride some place far
Maybe up to Brecon
or somewhere else just as bizarre
I’ll make my way down to the coast
And part and ride through the sea
Like Moses did back in the day
I’ll head straight for Normandy
And when I’m there at Omaha
I’ll think of all those men who died
That grew up in small towns like ours
and fought for more than drunken pride
I’ll contemplate a few more things
Then I’ll get back on that bike
And when I’m down in Germany
Will you let me stay the night?
I don’t know where you’re living now
But I hope its somewhere nice
I’m still walking down the roads
That we rode on winter nights
My party should be over
When I’m walking home alone
But the inter cities passing through
I’ll rest when I am home
