I don't really know who's looking out for me
'Times I get to thinking that I'd rather be
Disappearing every moment constantly
Constantly, baby please
Do you promise to be there for me?
A woman's love is a dog from hell
And a man's love means nothing at all
Getting tired of the way it feels to be
Just another loser looking for some family
Tell me who it is that's looking out for you
Ain't nobody really ever there for you
Ain't it true? Just me and you
So who do I turn to now?
It was supposed to be you
That shit was supposed to be on you
Here is all that's left to learn from that
The way I held you close while my world went black
Now I know that even you don't have my back
Now I know I am the only one that has my back
Goess I'll have to live with that
Baby I'll remember that

Rain Dog's Dream

Here's to another summer
To call it all off
Sleeping out in the grass
Trying to watch the moon die
I know that I was wrong
And that was my fault
But you gave up
And left me running with the rain dogs
You lied, but so did I
You lied, when you promised to stand
By my side
Had to learn how to be alone
There is nothing left to hurt me
I have watched the world desert me

That's it, I'm through
I am all through begging you
Fuck this, I'm through
Begging you to stay here
You can treat me right
Or leave me the hell alone
Just because I know trouble when I see it
Doesn't mean that I can always leave it alone
Spent too many nights sleeping in the gutter
Learning how to suffer
I've been learning how to suffer
I can make you suffer
Show me how you suffer
'Cause I felt that every day
And I loved you anyway
Don't you think I'm hurtin' too?
I've been thinkin' 'bout
Thinkin' 'bout this way too much
Wasting all my time
Trying to reinvent my love
All it could've took
Was making up your goddamn mind
Wrote a fucking book
To get these simple goddamn lines

Sometimes I laugh so hard that it makes me cry
Sometimes I feel so happy that I could die
I don't want to go outside
I don't want to run away
I just want to stay right here with you all goddamn day
We could sleep in the yard
It would feel just like sleeping inside
We could sleep in the car
It would feel just like sleeping inside
We could sleep on the floor
It would feel just like sleeping outside
We could sleep on the porch
And it would feel just like sleeping anywhere at all
Oh honey
Don't tell me it's over
Don't tell me the night is over
Please don't fall asleep just yet
'Cause I still need you
Yes I could use you sometimes too

Tell me who it is that's looking out for you
Ain't nobody really ever there for you
Ain't it true? It's just me and you
I know that it ain't easy being you
But what the fuck else can you do?

So Much for No Mountain

So much for no mountain
So much for no river, no valley
No matter how blue
The sky is just a sky
And no matter how dark
The night is just a night
It's still the night
Pretty girls they make graves
But knowing it won't make it change
And loving her won't make her stay
I remember every single summer
Each last loss
Me hurting you hurting me hurting you
There wasn't anything more I could do
Like dogs dreaming
We run away while sleeping
So much for no mountain
For no valley
For no river
I was only ever the same thing
You were the one been changing
Now when I hear those songs
I only think one thing
I only feel one thing

Go on and get mad
I can get real mad too
Ain't that the truth baby?
You know I love you
But sometimes I get so mad at you
Why do you do that?
We used to fuck in
The kitchen for nothing at all
We didn't need no reason
I don't expect you
To be the person you were
That ain't the way it works
Even if it makes me hurt
Do you remember
How long I tried?
I tried so hard to be
Someone that you would want to see
Is that me or ain't that me?
Ain't that me now?
We used to dance in the kitchen
She threw down like nobody's business
I used to make her laugh
And then I'd make her miss it
She told me that I'd never ever be alone
She taught me that I never have to feel alone
Said are you alone or a loner?
Am I alone or a loner?
I think I'm indoors for the outside
I talk like my friends they always fade away
But I know it was me that always made it that way
People they don't want to have that talk
I am just an afterthought
Most nights it feels like
My life is only looking for somebody it can mess with
And it's been chasing me around the block
Forever and ever and ever and ever
Are you alone or a loner?

Can I Lean On You?

How many countries do I have to cross
Before the road it turns my bones to moss?
It isn't any wonder that she called it off
And when you look up at the sky at night
Tell me, do you wonder if you felt that right?
I must've asked myself a thousand times
Isn't there anything beyond the light?
Can you define what makes a future bright?
'Cause I've been chasing it for half my life
It's alright to hate me now
If it helps you figure your shit out
But can I lean on you for just a little while?
Just to feel something that isn't
Halfway out the door already
I want to see her move again
The way she used to back when we were only friends
She was always only smiling then
I was still broken, but getting better
She was something to put hope in since I met her
That's what I want
So get up
And come over here
I was out there on the road so long
That I forgot where I was coming from
Turns out "No Tomorrow" was a hopeless song
But I keep singing it despite my wrongs
Maybe you'll sing it for me when I'm gone
Were you hoping for some disbelief?
Or just impossible to please?
People don't say what they mean
I open up and watch them leave
So you can go on and hate me now
Tell yourself that I's the one who shut you out
Day in and night out
I'm trying not to turn the light out

Don't you want to leave this place?
Don't you want to split?
I've been on the run
When I find my one
The first thing I'll do is call
Ain't you tired of working hard?
Don't you want to sleep?
I've been on the run
When I find the one
The first thing I'll do is call
If you hear I gave it up
If you hear I'm gone
You made my life worth keeping 'round
Don't let it get you down
