Chose to Lose

Walking home
With a bloody nose
From a sleepless night on top of a funeral home
And I can't see the irony
(You want some more)
But how much can I take before I hit the floor
with a lust for dying
I know I'm lost
But I don't wanna find my way
Today is dumb
Tomorrow won't be better
I don't want to hear it
I don't want to find out (why)
I keep on living this way
and they keep walking away
I think I was born to lose
You're gonna distance yourself
You'll say that i need some help
They know I chose to lose
Live with know regrets
At least not yet
We're choking to death on cigarettes
To test our lung capacity
(Can't take anymore)
But everyone else still wants to score
I think they're lying
You think we're lost but we won't go another way
You want to talk but you don't want to listen
I don't want to hear it
I don't want to find out (why)
You seem so boring lately
Is your life overrated
Why build a future just to lay in the ground
with the rest of the world
Rest of the woooooorrrrrlddd

Yeah you’re a piece of work you know
Scrape by with money left to blow
Make cash but lose it just as fast
Two years then looking in the past
When the roof caves
And luck runs out
You gotta stop, disarm and quit
Just know you could’ve had it all
Could’ve made it
Could’ve laid low
Could’ve won with your charm and wit
Now you got your back against the wall
This town’s a piece of work you know
Some fucked up place called Chicago
Rich and the poor one block away
Mayor’s the mob more every day
We're all alone

You said I’m kicked out
You said I fucked it up again
It’s got me crumblin I’m fumblin
My big mouth can only find a means to my end
I’m like a dying trend
And I don’t know what you’re thinking
Can’t stop myself from drinking
All I know is I’m not getting close
Hitting the road in last night’s dirty clothes
As the floor starts to cave
My life around me starts to crumble away
And with no luck, I will never give up
So don't send help
I'll try to deal with this myself
My personal trip to hell

I wake up every morning searching asphalt for gold
Fillin’ up shopping carts, while they all fill out the mold
When your life’s done and you’re too broke
And you got nowhere to go
you got nowhere to go
It’s war or massacre
We got nowhere to go
We got nowhere to go
Which side is was right, who was the worst
Does it even matter, who shot first?
There’s no true record of what happened that day
But what did this town do for you anyway?

What if I don’t end up with the world
What if I don’t end up with the girl
What if all this ends up to make shit
What happens when we don’t make it
Are we done, are we fucked, are we wasted
Are we bad for living in the basement
Are we wrong living without a care
All I know is there’s plenty of us out there
I don’t want to waste my time
And sit while life keeps flashing by
My mind thinks it’s all one big lie
To do the same shit till you die
What’ll happen when your well laid plans go fail
If they work, now you’re working till you’re old and frail
22 years old nothing more to do
That’s life, but I don’t want to
Go stand by and waste my time
And sit while life keeps flashing by
My mind thinks it’s all one big lie
To do the same shit till you die

Seems like my time is running out
Going nowhere still chasing doubt
And I've found, no love
And now my own will drags me down
She's playing games with your head but you cannot see
Blinded by your own stupidity
Distrust, sold lies
Left to die as I
Take on everything (just like everyday)
Make my heart beat faster
Then bury it
Somethings never even mattered (like it never even mattered)
Feels like my hearts buried underground
Taken away and useless now
Fade out, so long
She finally worked her charm
And playing games with your head but you can't complain
Brought it on yourself, there's no more to explain
Your fate, and her games
Face to face now
And I can't let this go
Lost all my self control

Street Rat

Kicked out and to the ground
I've stumbled through another shitty town
It doesn't take long to forget
The memories that were far from perfect
And now as I lie awake
I don't think I can really take it
Lost myself looking for more
Forgetting the things I chose to ignore
Yet I knew just by the way she slammed the door
There is no return
I can't turn around to say goodbye
Can't go back for the things I left behind
I'm on my own
Another rat's let loose to crawl the streets
Trying to find a way to make ends meet
Washed out and fade away
The motive lessens everyday
There is nothing left but a barren waste
Still somehow you can't escape
It's too late, the dream is gone
but the aftermath is long from gone
I can't give back when there is nothing for me
Life's hypocrisy

You overhear about how you’ll never figure it out
Still a mile out but you're not turning around
It’s like i’ve never been heard
Been yellin for days without saying a word
Give my best but I guess I’ll never learn
I'll never start using my head
We'll fall apart just to start all over again
Unscramble my brain fry it overeasy
Numbing out all the pain but still feeling queasy
I need some understanding
I need something some caffeine
Now that my brain is ending
So much for being healthy
Should’ve done more exercises
Should’ve stayed away from surprises
Should’ve made more compromises
Taking loans out to pay the prices
But I can't feel it anymore

You tell me man I gotta ditch this place
Save face start new with out a trace
Breaking the glass and reach the sky
Risking it before I take 8.25
you're all left dying in the water
While I'm drinking it maybe you should've thought more
Turn around when your heart starts breakin'
Realize that the path you've taken
Set you up in flames
But it was gonna happen anyway
You said something about
You got it figured out
You said something about
how well never see you again
Said you'll make it big
Said you'll be making green
And Next time you see me
Is on your TV screen
And you'll forget us when you get done
This small town isn't everything, still it takes a man to know one

Those sleeping pills don't work at all
You've synthesized your highs for just a bit too long
When too many nights to count have disappeared
Will you ask yourself what brings you here?
And when you go (So then I go) (So lets all go)
To take a trip down to Lobo Rd
Sacrifice to destination unknown
Self medicate, Apprehensive minds
From burnout dreams that don't rest aside
But only on the lonely road you'll find
That life is... Alright
I wonder what it is that brings us back
Is it for the thrill, the cure to another anxiety attack?
So take me to the place where I feel at home
3 o'clock in the morning just to be alone
Redundant promises are worthless
Strung out and can't stand on my own
And you'll never be alright
But through dazed eyes this is paradise
Taken hostage from my mind

Wake up with nothing to do
Changed my mind and turns out so did you
Slept in but I’m not screwed
Been blowing things off for the last month or two
Carry me home
I’ve been drinkin'
I’m thinkin' too much
I stayed home did me
Made something no one has to see
Read a book, cooked and looked up
I’d write a song but I’m sure it would suck

I've got a million questions
But I don’t wanna hear the answers
I’ve got a million questions
And I don’t wanna hear the answers
And I'm starting to think
That I can't think at all
Keep giving up till there's nothing lose
it all builds up until you suffocate
Today's mistakes
are the same as yesterday's
I'm in a purgatory
I'm not lost
Keep running away till there's nowhere to go
Keep giving up till there's nothing to lose
Now you lost everything and there's nothing
to show
But if you hold it inside you'll suffocate
