even a fish wouldn't get into trouble if it kept it's mouth shut
i will always remember the smell the good times are coming the moments are passing
let me tell you another fish quote cause "only dead a dead fish swims upstream"
"you can't buy happiness but you can buy a boat and that's pretty much the same thing"
and as the sentences float away i know that there'll be a current tomorrow
belly up at my maker's place for coffee and a new story to borrow
oh my god another fucking fish quote

maybe life will flutter by and put me in my grave
i know i really fucked up this time
the way the room feels like the hell where i've reserved my place
and i'm sure as hell not a saint
but i don't think i'm a sinner
i know i've earned my fate
but i know that's yours will get better
to see your face the way we left it makes me break
i really fucked up this time
though things changed i still love you just the same
i'm sorry
butterflies never say goodbye one day you're gonna be happy
butterflies never say goodbye they flutter and fly live so bright and feel so nice

make it go backwards
and don’t let it stop
until the guy with the match for a head puts the flame out and snaps his neck before the flame can even start
i’ve got 45 dollars left would you publish this
get the editor on the phone so they can change some shit
they say every story shut is where a story begins
but if the stores don’t stock the book does it even exist
oh my god the pictures must have fallen off the wall
there’s a hole in the curtain now and i can see it all
like that bird in the tree i could fly until i fall
but it’d win that race and wouldn’t be worth our time at all
there’s a bay roan horse at the corner of the street
if i wasn't better health i’d ride it til my feet fell off at the bus stop wait until 5 am and never have a trace left here of who i’ve been

best i can

what can we do when the whole world disappeared with a crisis but you've pulled through
i need to see you and tell you how this whole time i've been feeling like i needed something that was going to make me drowned
and it's so dumb living like i'm living for nothing
when the sun comes up i'll be out on my porch with a morning cup and a smoke with joe and it will all feel better when it all gets better
could this just be like one of those times in the movies when the cgi apocalypse looks so shitty that everyone laughs
cause i could really use an amateur budget lever remake with an average cast
it's so dumb living like i'm living for nothing
when the sun comes up i'll look the the holes in the ceiling and it will all be better when it all gets better it'll all be fine
there's a million things that i should be doing but where i'm at is where i am
there's a million things that i should be doing but the best i can is all i have

stay awake

i know you think that it’s all over
but you didn’t even get a plaque
they say when our years grow older
one day we’re gonna look back at everything and laugh
i never wanted any closure
but now i’m thinking about all the things that i’d take back
and i know it sounds so cliche
but give it time don’t throw it all away
until you’re finished with all the things you never had the time to fix
we can make it just stay awake
i say this under full disclosure but i think i another campral
because this whole getting sober thing is hitting me like a fucking car
and i mean it when i say i thank you for turning over the key to make it fucking start
cause you don’t know how much i’ve hated watching myself push you away when all you wanted was a lover who you didn’t have to help stay awake

i can see it now its coming into full view hello operator collect call if a movie has no ending would you finish watching it i don't think i could i don't have the patience everybody's got a piece of their bedroom deep in their heart and anytime we get some spare we fill it back up with some plastic art and everybody's like hey that's like hey what hey that's like this and like that and like what we've been through in our own lives and i never meant to make you feel bad or that you had been misplaced i guess i never really showed an interest in living through this race and if we could go for a drive to the store just buy some more toothpaste come back have a hug a laugh a nap cause how do you live a life without all that
how do you live a life without all that
