Petty Theft 02:45
You're intimidating like a cop car that's missing one headlight Taking corners hard without a siren on in the dead of night I just nod my head All you talk about is how you used to break rules and how hard it is to have fun anymore I just nod my head It's petty theft of genuine experience I just nod my head and deal with it now how it is It's petty theft of genuine experience I'm just supposed to run with it for as long as I can
2.
Make A Man 02:30
You said I look like my mother from behind Then apologized but I didn't mind You said I have my fathers eyes and a calm smile I think about it all of the time Why do you have to try and define it You said I don't have the right to expect selfish things from anybody It's a waste of time You said I don't mean it like it sounds but it's all you'll ever be Why do you have to go and make a man out of me You said listen it's all you'll ever be No you'll never make a man of me I am anyone I want to be You said I always thought I knew you better than this
3.
Shit Grin 01:59
Your teachers played favorites even though they tried Not to get caught up and keep an open mind It's hard to be unbiased when you think you've seen it all You just got under their skin with your habits Your teachers played favorites even though they tried To ignore your little shit grin, that fearless look in your eyes You don't know where you're going All you know is where you've been And one day you'll get caught up in where you once began Whether it's tomorrow or laid out on your deathbed You'll forget about it 'til then
4.
Waiting for things to change They can't stay the same Nearly anything would do I see everything from afar I fear that I'm losing you to bitter silence The early morning glow on the back lawn... Something in your voice was wrong What's missing here? A glass of something clear Nearly anything would do Loosen up, it's a party We all came here to fool someone into thinking we're more than who we are It makes you feel invincible but only for the night
