I would walk through hell and back for you. And I would tie your shoes if you asked me too I really wish there were a better way to tell you how I feel, but I guess a shitty song will have to do. I'm a shitty singer, but that's fine. My chord progressions are stupid, but I don't mind I really wish there were a better way to tell you what I think. And sing you those, instead of send you lyrics by Blink. I could wait a thousand years to hear you say you're ready, but I would wait a thousand more to hear you say we're steady. I'll hold your hand, I'll hold your purse, I'll hold your hair while you puke. Because even when you're covered in beer and spit, I still think you're cute! I would take down a hornets nest for you, without protective clothing if you asked me to. I guess that's a pretty good way to tell you how I feel, because I really hate those little fuckers, they sting you and shit and it hurts. I know it's silly that I wrote this song, I know that it probably sucks and it's kind of long! But this is the way that I really feel about you. And I would do anything, yeah I would do anything, yeah I would do anything if you asked me to.

We met at midnight, we all grabbed our bikes and rode down to the shore. With cold wind blowing, our noses running. Yeah, we pedaled as fast as we could. And when we got there, we all just stared at the shoreline's push and pull. We drank 'til morning, then the sun came up to say goodnight,

I swore I'd write a song about the shit that happened to us a couple months ago it was cold, it was cold, it was cold, it was cold. It was sometime in early November, we made it all Last 'til December. Then it all fell apart, but you know how that goes. It was Christmas time, I was living in my parents house, trying to get out. You were going to college, and trying to move on with your life. We didn't know what to do, but the feelings that we had got us through all the stupid shit that'd happened in our lives. (But wait, let's go back to the first time we met) We met at a party, our friend was going off to war. I sat on the couch, you sat on the floor. I didn't think I had a chance I knew nothing about romance but I still gave it a shot and I tried my best. I tried my best. (Okay, now we can go back to what I was talking about in the first place) So Christmas came, and unfortunately I didn't have a dime to my name. I was ashamed, I was ashamed, I was ashamed, I was ashamed. You came over with a brand new guitar, it's the one I still play today. And I didn't know what to say. So to pay you back, I'm trying to get my life on track. And I'm still trying to get you back. So, Merry Christmas. I wrote this song for you.

Honesty in ancestry is nothing to believe we're all liars and we're all cheats Catastrophy and amity make superficiality And common sense and decency make nothing but conformity so sing Burn the world and all the people too Save yourself and others close to you I have friends that quit their jobs Cause their stocks went through the roof and I have friends who work 9 to 5 DRUNK AS SHIT OFF WHISKEY, 90 proof Burn the world and all the people too Save yourself and others close to you Nothing in life is guarenteed So grasp your individuality Burn this world Burn your fears Burn your hate and burn your tears Burn your boss Quit your job But most importantly of all Don't burn the ones you love

And I'll be here forever Or until I just die And I'll see the concrete river Like the one I can't cry And I'll search for a reason the whole worlds love to lie And I'll hope the tide is turning for my sweet baby rye And You know, And you know I swear this We'll have community one day Build a family out of strangers down the way Build a family out of strangers down the way We will learn from each other As we build something pure We'll teach each other to live Learn the meaning of secure This is the end of servitude We will learn to sweep our own floors Teach each other to love We need no less, no more We need no less, no more And You know, And you know I swear this We'll have community one day Build a family out of strangers down the way Build a family out of strangers down the way (x2)
