Wide right We'll never beg or borrow Wide left Get up and try tomorrow Venture forth and you'll succeed Dying words from a dying breed Wide right I think I missed my exit Wide left Nothing but shame and regret On the street with broken shoes The sweetest sting of feeling used And for the first time in forever This is not my fault Now I'm standing at the bottom Feeling two feet tall I was violently awakened from the midst Of my American Dream Now I'm coming apart at the seams Loyalty for Sale A meager wage until you fail For the first time in forever This was not my fault

Half Dollar 02:26
Just a half Was enough for me Wouldn't even kiss you It wouldn't even hold your hand Turn him off Cause he's fucking loud And that's all we do Is sit inside and listen to you Lock the door Speak of silly things The circles beneath my eyes Start to feel like diamond rings Burning out Burning out Losing my talents How I wish we had The will to fight it but Speedball And a half a dollar You were cold but kept your cool (That's the way we do it) Dim the lights and tie me down Keep my head from spinning 'round Hide me from today

Picking my way through the brand new battlefield with you Hand in hand we'll take our steps Our minds on what we do Another try at getting by Another close and then last call And if I had to be a betting man We won't get there at all The hardest thing I do Is to slip away from you With quiet kisses on your cheek The morning pale and blue Another try at getting by Another chip out of the wall And if I had to be a betting man We won't break through at all For what it's worth Here we are Always close but no cigar We can sink our ship on distant shores And flaunt our silver scars So hold me close At this bar With open eyes and open arms We'll toast to those without a home 'Cause life is always ours Raise your glass to those you love Life is always ours Raise your glass to our mistakes Life is always ours Raise your glass to breaking up Life is always ours Raise your glass and drink with us Raise your glass to fucking up Raise your glass to sweetest sin Raise your glass to stepping up, stepping out and knowing For what it's worth Here we are Always close but no cigar We can sink our ship on distant shores And flaunt our silver scars So hold me close At this bar With open eyes and open arms

Debutante 02:24
Brave girl Put your lipstick on Fingers crossed That they might not see you're gone Jackknife Out your backdoor now Soft sweater, and trembling shoulders Just meet me once I'll kiss you twice And if it's only for tonight Just tell me once I'll die twice Cause darlin' all I need Is someone to save me I don't wanna bend your tiara I don't wanna scuff your party shoes If you're gonna ignore me tomorrow What you got to lose? Lamppost The better side of town Footsteps Whisper secrets to the ground Eyes meet, a flash of fire now Singing crickets, and nervous laughter Just meet me once I'll kiss you twice And if it's only for tonight Just tell me once I'll die twice Cause darlin' all I need Is someone to save me I don't wanna bend your tiara I don't wanna scuff your party shoes If you're gonna ignore me tomorrow What you got to lose? I'll lose.

It's a longer walk Off a longer pier I'm wishing you were here It's Dolemite It's a satellite Crashing to the earth To longer walks Off longer piers But there ain't nobody here There ain't nobody here We can't be the first But we can bet the last Breaking hearts all across your past We can't be the first But we can be the best Lay your head right upon my chest
