lyrics

lucky for you you’re not a chance worth taking
so bored with the truth my dear I stare start faking
it over some fear or under a ceiling
in a room full of beer you know we lost some feeling
and my vision is clear but the world seems blurry
to me and my friends you know we can’t help from hurting
from debts we've incurred from the high cost of living
I've harbored these thoughts you know I just shouldn't mention
kind of like giving up or at least expending
some time towards a job that can give me a pension
for the aches I've endured and the shit that I've carried
for all these long years yet have no exposition

but a handful of friends who don’t know where i go with
these two ringing ears and a cut up throat

you’ll be missed when i’m gone

I've done lots of good things get no recognition
I think i may just start a poor me convention
like the ones who are idle with less ambitions
the lost ones the hopeless the lovers gone loveless
can dive deep beneath my words plays and hat tricks
and finally see someone so disenchanted

from a passion gone astray and right out the front gate
right down the back lanes and straight into the ocean

you’ll be missed when I’m gone

we gave it all up we gave it in turn
and all we were taught wasn't quite what we learned
the world that we love has been built up to burn
we keep pushing on because our hearts are so stern.
I travel and wait, I’m tired and I’m broke
it’s such a damn shame no one laughs at the jokes
you give it your all you’re damned if you stall
at least you've got something to cushion your fall

you’ll be missed when i’m gone.
