This ain't a scene, it's a god damn arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a god damn arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a god damn arms race
I'm not a shoulder to cry on
But, I digress

I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are oh-so intricate oh-so intricate
I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are oh-so intricate oh-so intricate

I wrote the gospel on giving up
(You look pretty sinking)
But the real bombshells have already sunk
(Prima-donnas of the gutter)

I finally moved into my own apartment. I it is bitter sweet tho. I am always excited when I move into a new place (I don't know why), but This is not how I wanted to get my own place. No matter how I try to put it it still seems convenient and I know it looks that way. I wish there was a way to show that that is now how it happened. I love going to school and learning but Southern can really fuck you up sometimes. I never know where I am going but in the twenty one years I have been alive I know from the little experience that I have had that if I do what is right. Things will work themselves out. It is just so hard to do what is right. All I can do now is get up everyday and move along. Que sera sera.

step one you say we need to talk
he walks you say sit down it's just a talk
he smiles politely back at you
you stare politely right on through
some sort of window to your right
as he goes left and you stay right
between the lines of fear and blame
and you begin to wonder why you came

let him know that you know best
cause after all you do know best
try to slip past his defense
without granting innocence
lay down a list of what is wrong
the things you've told him all along
and pray to god he hears you

as he begins to raise his voice
you lower yours and grant him one last choice
drive until you lose the road
or break with the ones you've followed
he will do one of two things
he will admit to everything
or he'll say he's just not the same
and you'll begin to wonder why you came

where did i go wrong, i lost a friend
somewhere along in the bitterness
and i would have stayed up with you all night
had i known how to save a life
