I'm STILL a self confessing, self professing know-it-all, or so I think!

Show me the power child I’d like to say that I’m down on my knees today

Yeah it gives me butterflies gives me away
Till I’m up on my feet again
Oh I’m feeling
Oh I’m feeling
Outshined Outshined Outshined Outshined

I’ve been smoking on the peace pipe

I’ve been wondering just what would peace be like
I’ve been staring into headlights
Swallow me whole, finding my peace of mind
I’m just trying to seize the moment
Trying to love the little things, even if they’re hard to love
A monument to love unspoken
Carved into stone, unwilling to come undone
It feels good to be running from the devil
Another breath and I’m up another level
It feels good to be up above the clouds
It feels good for the first time in a long time now
I remember back in Oakland
I was lying there in rapture on the bathroom floor
Moving hotel to hotel
Out on the road, no idea really what’s in store
Light it up just like a flashlight
Let it shine, let it rise just like a foreign sun
Turn it over and it’s capsized
It’s finally done, the battle’s lost yet I feel I’ve won
It feels good to be running from the devil
Another breath and I’m up another level
It feels good to be up above the clouds
It feels good for the first time in a long time now
It feels good for the first time in a long time now
It feels good to be me
I’m high, staring at the ceiling
Sending my love, what a wonderful feeling
What comes next, I see a light
I’m along for the ride as I’m taking flight
I’m high, staring at the ceiling
Sending my love, what a wonderful feeling
What comes next, I see a light
I’m along for the ride as I’m taking flight
It feels good to be running from the devil
Another breath and I’m up another level
It feels good to be up above the clouds
It feels good for the first time in a long time now
It feels good for the first time in a long time to be me
It feels good for the first time in a while I’m free
I’m high, staring at the ceiling
Sending my love, what a wonderful feeling
What comes next, I see a light
I’m along for the ride as I’m taking flight

to be yourself is all that you can do

someone finds salvation in everyone
and another only pain
someone tries to hide himself
down inside himself he prays
someone swears his true love
until the end of time
Another runs away
separate or united
healthy or insane

if i want to sit in and drink super tennents in the day i will, no one’s gonna fucking tell me jack!

but can you rely on anyone in this world, no you can’t.

it’s all my fault there’s wall to wall empty cans.

… everyone’s a cunt in this life no one’s there for me.

it’s the end of the something i did not want to end, 
beginning of hard times to come. 
but something that was not meant to be is done, 
and this is the start of what was.

we were off to the races and i thought to myself, hold tight

i don’t know what you want from me
so careless in my company
oh if all that you say is true
there’ll be no getting over you
so beat down playing by your rules
if you’re a joker then I’m a fool
i guess there’s no catching up to you

Yo I’ll be over here

I’m sorry if I seem uninterested
Or I’m not listenin’ or I’m indifferent
Truly, I ain’t got no business here
But since my friends are here
I just came to kick it but really
I would rather be at home all by myself not in this room
With people who don’t even care about my well-being
I don’t dance, don’t ask, I don’t need a boyfriend
So you can go back, please enjoy your party
I’ll be here, somewhere in the corner under clouds of marijuana
With this boy who’s hollering I can hardly hear
Over this music I don’t listen to and I don’t wanna get with you
So tell my friends that I’ll be over here

Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here oh oh oh
I ask myself what am I doing here?
Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here
And I can’t wait till we can break up outta here

Excuse me if I seem a little unimpressed with this
An anti-social pessimist but usually I don’t mess with this
And I know you mean only the best and
Your intentions aren’t to bother me
But honestly I’d rather be
Somewhere with my people we can kick it and just listen
To some music with the message (like we usually do)
And we’ll discuss our big dreams
How we plan to take over the planet
So pardon my manners, I hope you’ll understand it
That I’ll be here
Not there in the kitchen with the girl
Who’s always gossiping about her friends
So tell them I’ll be here
Right next to the boy who’s throwing up ’cause
He can’t take what’s in his cup no more
Oh God why am I here?

Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here oh oh oh
I ask myself what am I doing here?
Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here
And I can’t wait till we can break up outta here

Hours later congregating next to the refrigerator
Some girl’s talking ’bout her haters
She ain’t got none
How did it ever come to this
I shoulda never come to this
So holla at me I’ll be in the car when you’re done
I’m standoffish, don’t want what you’re offering
And I’m done talking
Awfully sad it had to be that way
So tell my people when they’re ready that I’m ready
And I’m standing by the TV with my beanie low
Yo I’ll be over here

down is not where i belong

this aching heart won’t turn to stone
there’s a fire inside these bones
it was meant to be
i see your world’s still full of light
how could i ever been so blind
i still haven’t lost my fight
it haunts me in my sleep

i know only time would tell
if all the cards will treat me well
cause this hand that i’ve been dealt
keeps me wondering
so now here i turn the page
i’ve learned to silence all my rage
tell me who can really say
what will tomorrow bring
