Track Name: Chemicals
Engine Number 1 screams by
I worry for the world
And I hope there's still a soul inside
This sick frame of a girl
Who can't take any more
Blood filled with chemicals
And so it goes
Haven't they had had enough
Mixed in this poison world

They paved the road where Carlos died
And the pavement was still wet
So his father scratched his name into
The spot where they lost him
A mother lost a son
Whose brother can't let go
through chemicals
Painkillers, alcohol
Xanax and adderal

Syringe, she wants to die with you
Got some pills? He'd die for two.
Another shot of rye will do
Another bottle full of fine aged chemicals
And chemicals

Hold on, your life's not wasted
Just toe the line for me
Just one more time
Chemicals
Track Name: Come Closer
I smoke a pack of secondhand and we hit the show upstairs
We hang back in the shadows with friends that I haven't seen in years
He says "babe, you're cool as ice" but that girl burns behind those eyes
Another half block, he wouldn't let her alone
so she laid him out inside a sidewalk frame

The city bleeds sulfur
Come closer, haven't got long
By morning it's over
For just one night we're outlaws

Well I don't know what comes of love when a heart's too tired to try
He misses her every morning
She still breathes his name each night
He cut his teeth and he sunk 'em in
Reads a book he won't finish
Sees a plane above Los Angeles from a bus leaving Brooklyn

I read you
Come closer
It's not so cold where we're from
And if he should falter, we'll make this last all night long

A sad eyes song - was that all?
Stole away from all those times you heard me say "don't fall in love"

Come closer
Close your eyes, love
Come closer
Come untied, love
Come closer
Say goodbye, love
And if we should fall, our moment lasts all night long
Track Name: Pretty Bad Year
I ain't ashamed to say I had a pretty bad year
I laid my heart on the table and she didn't care
It came to pass that I had to sever some ties
Cuz I can't tell what's the truth and what are the lies

I can't escape the storm that's in my head
Then I got to thinking I'd be better off dead

I'll try if that's what it takes
I'll fight if that's what it takes
I'll die if that's what it takes for me

I ain't ashamed to say I had a pretty bad year
I felt like a drowning man and nobody cared
I'm a product of the ghosts that are haunting my past
But I wouldn't be me if I didn't have them

I can't escape the storm that's in my head
Then I got to thinking I'd be better off dead

I'll try if that's what it takes
I'll fight if that's what it takes
I'll die if that's what it takes for me

I ain't ashamed to say I had a pretty bad year
I put my heart on the table and nobody cared
I ain't ashamed to say I had a pretty bad year
I felt like a drowning man and nobody cared
Lately I've been thinking about getting away
But there's no escape when it's all in your brain

I'll try if that's what it takes
I'll fight if that's what it takes
I'll die if that's what it takes for me
I'll try if that's what it takes
I'll fight if that's what it takes
I'll die if that's what it takes for me
for me
ALL GONE!
