I saw the look in my fathers eyes when he saw regret
the way he looked at it I'll never forget
we were raised to believe in happy endings
well those days are ending
you can't live your whole life with your head down,
one foot into the ground
and I can see it coming
and I've made mistakes
but I got another chance and I'll take it
I still believe in fate
the kind that when it comes it slaps you in the face
we were raised to believe in happy endings (We can do so much more than live like this, I won't let all my dreams die)
well those days are ending.

I've been kicking my own teeth in for as long as I remember
keeping to myself with every thing about November
with everything that shouldn't be half as important as I make it to be
but I can't help myself, take the whiskey off the shelf
and pour a drink with everyone I know
and tell them all about it
But I'll be alright
my friends, they help me get by
and the cancer even taught me
what it means to feel alive
I've been keeping it inside me but it won't stay in much longer
writing it all down just to make me that much stronger
and all my friends will sing along to all these pointless words that I put into song
but I can't help myself, take the whiskey off the shelf
and pour a drink with everyone I know
and tell them all about it
But I'll be alright
my friends, they help me get by
and the cancer even taught me
what it means to feel alive
Too drunk to dance, so we stood on the floor
Too drunk to sing, so we made up all the words
But I'll be alright
my friends, they help me get by
and the cancer even taught me
what it means to feel alive.

I think my throat is bleeding
when you've been screaming for this long you forget how to sing
I wonder how much longer that I've got it in me
cause' I've been starving, lying, living, dying
and I say we make our getaway
You'd think by now we'd have a reason
to stay away from this town
how could anyone expect to move on
when you can't put the bottle down?
I'm so tired of this place
and you know I ain't one for complaining
but if I spend one more fucking day I think I might explode
I just can't get the words out of my throat
You'd think by now we'd have a reason
to stay away from this town
how could anyone expect to move on
when you can't put the bottle down?
And where I've been you can see it in my eyes
I'll never try to hide it, I'm not so proud of where I been
but it's not where you've been, it's where you're going.

Just forget about the bad days, that's how I get through it
It's like it never happened at all
all the stress and the debt, it's a burden I'd rather forget
and for a moment I can feel myself feeling new again
don't let it get the best of you
It doesn't mean much it's just what comes to mind
when I think of my life and how I always thought that I'd die young
what happened to the days when we'd all sing along
with a bottle of whiskey and our favorite songs?
I always thought that I'd die young.

Broke Down

When we were young we were promised the world
but somehow it has left us behind
we're all alone trying to fend for ourselves
we sell our souls just to get by
we overdose on bottles and pills
just to cope with everyday life
it's the way to the american dream
but that dream has finally died
Oh, we never wanted to feel like this
we were striving for happiness
but we've been broke down, broke down
oh, we only wanted to feel alive
just once before we die
but we've been broke down, broke down
Our bodies ache and we're breaking our bones
as we work all night and all day
we can't afford to follow our hearts
cause' it's more than minimum wage
prepare these bodies to be put in the ground
maybe there we'll find peace in our graves
I'm almost sure that I've got no soul
there's nothing left in me to be saved
Oh, we never wanted to feel like this
we were striving for happiness
but we've been broke down, broke down
oh, we only wanted to feel alive
just once before we die
but we've been broke down, broke down

Vessels

We are just aging, every single day
in vessels that were only meant to decay
our minds are quickly fading, memories away
until there is nothing but a blank slate
Will we live on if we sing these songs?
Our hearts are beating slower, our mouths have less to say
and we don't have the strength to dig our own graves
so we won't take for granted, tomorrow or today
and we will love the person that we became
Will we live on if we sing these songs?
