5 o'clock has come, you know I'm feelin' fine, you know I'm feelin' alright Hit the ground and run, you know I'm making my own way tonight Cuz only city streets and bright lights can ease my troubled mind When all I've got is time, so it's time to leave myself behind And I just wanna forget All the missteps and all the regrets, cuz you know next week I'm gonna do it again And I can't help but think that, I've go the rest of my life, just to do it right So why worry about just one more night? 1 o'clock has come, you know I'm takin' my time, to fall out of line Been waiting around too long, you know it's time to leave this fuckin' small town Bottoms up and spirits down, get one more round, I can't hear the sound Of all my cluttered thoughts, as they silently fall to the ground
2.
I don't think I can cope when it rains It's easier to look away and face it all another day All of my regrets they drag you down My mind is busy but I can't see straight in this nowhere little town Stop motion pictures fill my head And the nights keep getting longer As I lie awake in bed You often spoke of broken days now passed Well you know it gets harder when you sit alone and think Repetitions of the same old sorry songs keep playing, you were once as young as me We see-saw back and forth between awake and sleep But there isn't a reason Why to good things have to change? The rain keeps falling down
3.
I remember nights in spring when We used to talk and think we knew everything In that place between your house and mine Back to back we let the world go by I remember days spent singing along To those tapes and CDs you leave in your car While I wish things stayed the same They go on and on changing anyway While it’s only temporary, a second feels like an eternity Hesitate and the moments over, right in front of me I remember days gone by When talking on the phone would make me cry You’ve gotten so far away but Nothing here could have made you stay I fall into sleep, before arriving at B side of a record In the inside of the time which stopped It seems that only I get old I look back, look down and think the morning sun rising again I squint
4.
If broken hearts could kill Then I’ve already died Too many times before Tonight I’ve got my whiskey eyes And a broken heart from all your lies So shut the fuck up and drink your beer Well I know everything means nothing But that’s okay by me Cuz to me my friends mean something I’m gonna be a someone anyway Well I’m not sayin’ But yeah, I’m sayin’ My friends mean more to me than you Well I’m not sayin’ But yeah, I’m sayin’ You’ve burned your bridges now you’re through Thanks a million but you’re wrong There’s always so much more left to say But you’ve wasted my time You’ll be on your way Shut the fuck up and drink your beer Just shut the fuck up and drink your beer

I called you yesterday It's been three years since I left it all behind When did we stop having things to say? I don't wanna feel like this Stripped of the place I am from A dozen nights out and that song we used to sing We laughed the loudest at the jokes we made in my backyard You hardly cracked a smile when we last talked If I return, will it be the same despite time and change? Or is it me that's done the changing this time? I've been waiting around Holding onto threads of things we used to wanna believe in We aren't gonna give up So we'll keep on talkin', hoping that the worst was said and done Can we ever go back? Some things weren't meant to last

Sunday night, it comes too quickly I think about when you, you said, “Give up.” Summer ends, I’ve grown so weary of all the wrong turns Empty promises we make Roll the windows down Turn the volume up I can’t stand the sound We’ll scream the lyrics out Remember when, we drove all night just to hear my favorite song And fell asleep in the car? The best days, were those where I could turn to you and say “This place is okay.” Won’t hang around and I can’t sleep This noise is killing me

昼下がりの低気圧 夜に降る 雨は嫌いじゃない いつからか 暗闇に目は慣れるでしょう 人だかり抜け出します あなた、なぜ 息を切らして? 行き先は 誰にも告げないで 振り替え休日の子供達は 自転車で駆け抜けた さよなら いつしかの「さよなら」 アルコールの度数は 少しでもすぐ酔って 洗えない悲しみが トゲを抜いて欲しいのです 陽が陰る頃 私は町に溶けゆく この町に溶けてゆくのさ 昨日からの胸騒ぎはまだ ありふれた私の歌詞も 今夜くらいは 心、響くでしょう At least tonight 心、響くでしょう At least tonight
8.
These broken heroes are my best friends Late night coffee and cigarettes Weary faces on your back porch Talk of what could have been We used to dream Of Marigolds all day But now we live In past lives, false memory I still remember Who we wanted to be I won't forget The nights when we felt free This new line of flight Folds back into the whole Stitch and bind our wounds up Live for something a bit more true

You said forget me as you walked away on our last holiday Can't say I blame you cuz you know, I don't do much these days Giving in and giving up, although we'd like to change we don't Those nights I got to stay, wouldn't trade them any day As day break came I saw you, you were standing in the sunlight I forgot how awkward life can be at times But I don't wanna give up without looking back Standing hand in hand, on the apex of my broken summer I was young, and my voice was strained and I said I'd had enough It's not your fault I never wanted to get up and run away from you But fucked up bits of memory come and haunt me late at night Like standing hand in hand, on the apex of my broken summer I was young, and my voice was strained and I said I'd had enough It's not your fault Please don't look back You said forgive me as I walked away down the road we came I finally knew it wasn't worth it anymore Life is shorter than this you'd always say when I couldn't Find the answer, but I guess, I never will
10.
We do our best to hold on to our feelings and our memories But they always slip through our fists like sand I can't seem to quit smoking all these cigarettes And wondering what tomorrow might not bring I remember talking about our problems and anxieties Then passing out in your messy room You were the one always there for me and I'm so sorry I can't be there for you to do the same But those life lessons learned At basement shows I take them with wherever I go And those life lessons learned Back in Chicago I take them with wherever I go Pictures of you on my wall Framed in hope of maybe being 17 again someday Crooked smiles and life alight in our eyes Reminds of what it's like to feel alive Pop-up paper flowers and that scarf you knit just for me All reminders that things won't be the same It's hard to get back up without you here to carry me But I guess that's how its gonna be
11.
We are the waste of this world gone wrong We fight to feel alive We are what's left of the true and the strong Privileged but deprived We meet up in the deep of the night Looking for an answer But it ends in hopeless defeat Tonight we're spitting blood and teeth Another broken fence Another fucked up mess Four more tired eyes Two rotten hearts put to rest Another broken fence Another fucked up mess The stars won't shine tonight To put our hearts to rest Even if this city burns We'll still be at the bar Raise our glasses high With our friends deep in our hearts
