Road Trip 05:41
VERSE Let's take a road trip Quick dip, get out of town Before change our mind and turn around Wave goodbye, say hello to paradise It's the weekend And I'm broke again But all I need is the weather and close friends To get by So I think I'm fine All I packed was a camera and cheap sunglasses That's all I need til the whole day passes Time fades as we're on our way Pass the palm trees, and the ocean spray I see a mere glimpse, of our destination Then rain falls like a decoration For now... At least we're dry for now CHORUS You told me Breathe in slowly Farewell society Are you with me? Cause time moves swiftly Across the state line Beyond the skyline VERSE And as the sun shines Good times, are ahead We pull off the road to see the sun set Peace at last, we're outcasts, always running from our pasts Now we can let go, of all the all-time lows That have been building up, these past months or so We're finally miles away, are all our doubts and dismay And if you check the gauge again, we're not even halfway In the rearview mirror are the years behind us So many lies have made our eyes re-adjust I've been to rock bottom and back for air Cause a breathe of life worth any despair We park at a beach, and talk non-stop for hours Then we pass out, while the night devours The sea Jump in on the count of one two, one two three (Let's Go!) CHORUS BRIDGE Skyline Beyond the skyline Are we far enough for you to see That we can get away from, anything CHORUS You told me Breathe in slowly Farewell society Are you with me? Cause time moves swiftly Across the state line Beyond the skyline (Are you ready?) Beyond the skyline

VERSE Heard there's a cure And rest assured, we'll find it Not a pill, but something that subsided When luck runs out And if we both give up having our doubts We'll both dip set and party again Like we did last night, who cares that was then We'll bottle happiness With drinking games and shots of bliss There's nothing Friday night can't fix But could someone please turn up the party mix? PRE That we can't live with out It's a phase we sometimes doubt But here we go again Let's go all out CHORUS We all want the fast lane Live it up we're forever young and insane We'll keep our eyes from seeing The side effects from this life we're leading We all want the fast lane Will Karma get us back one day? Which friends will leave Which friends will stay? I'm counting on We'll always crave The fast lane VERSE We found the cure It will lure us closer Put down your cigarette And I can tell you a lot more Flash Exposed I took a photograph with her eyes still closed Incoherent It's so apparent That she won't remember striking this pose PRE Just slow down everything Life is not a race, so we can stop running CHORUS BRIDGE The fast lane... He is addicted She reminisces It's so easy, to give in Don't give in, don't give in, don't give in CHORUS We all want the fast lane Live it up we're forever young and insane We'll keep our eyes from seeing The side effects from this life we're leading We all want the fast lane Will Karma get us back one day? Which friends will leave Which friends will stay? I'm counting on We'll always crave We'll always crave The fast lane

Used 03:55
VERSE I use you and you use me As we use each other, exchanged words have no meaning Cause the next morning she's leaving We carry on, with our normal lives Pretending it fills a void someplace inside How long will this make us satisfied? PRE CHORUS Cause as we slowly feel deprived Our withdraws are intensified I can tell she isn't looking any better CHORUS So let's feel used No strings attached And no catch- the best thing I've heard Another night Another dose How would you oppose? Are you in the mood? Can we conclude? Let's just feel used VERSE The Saturday morning sunrise Pierces through the window, into my eyes I suddenly remember last night She's already gone But I don't care, no she's nothing me, we'll never be More than a flare Burning out faster than I was aware PRE CHORUS So as I slowly change my mind What the hell are we? We're so undefined And no one knows, we're even together CHORUS BRIDGE Let's just feel used Just one more night As our eyes fuse When we then turn off the light As the weekends blur We can't seem to infer If we're off or on We can't seem to stop this urge I'm addicted to her She's addicted to me As we overdose, we begin to see that PRE As we slowly lose control We know, we won't feel better CHORUS 2 So let's feel used So let's feel used Another night Another dose How would you oppose? Are you in the mood? Can we conclude? Let's just feel used So used... Let's feel used

VERSE We tried to escape Reality's grip on our fate We made for a run We made love beneath a midnight sun A bright sun PRE CHORUS But I'm awake now I slept through my doubts Let's get out of here But are you ready for A black out dear? Cause it's... CHORUS War All that we've tried to ignore Has come back to tie loose ends As flying debris hits our skin Two worlds then begin to collide There's no where to run or to hide Hold on to what you can Hold my hand Cause this will be our last stand VERSE 2 As dooms day awaits We're trapped as we still hallucinate We chase happiness, Like lust for an intangible kiss Don't miss Cause I can't help those lips PRE CHORUS 2 But I'm awake now I feel so free, since our falling out Cause as she walks away I see the sun explode and we decay Cause it's CHORUS War All that we've tried to ignore Has come back to tie loose ends As flying debris hits our skin Two worlds then begin to collide There's no where to run or to hide Hold on to what you can Hold my hand Cause this will be our last stand (SOLO) CHORUS Cause it's war All that we've tried to ignore Has come back to tie loose ends As flying debris hits my skin... Cause it's War All that we've tried to ignore Has come back to tie loose ends... again My sympathy goes to when it is War There's no where to run or to hide Hold on to what you can Hold my hand Cause this will be our last stand VERSE 3 As my consciousness fades Flickering thoughts evaporate What's done, is done There's nothing new beneath a midnight sun

VERSE Hey, hey September Do you remember? Where August went, she must have had a temper Oh well she couldn't have gone to far Cause I saw last night at the bar Hey December, did ever occur You're too damn cold you make life hard? So you can make it snow, I think she's got too big of an ego Spring Break flew by at the blink of an eye She had me there Then the months rolled by, seasons changed But in the end I knew who felt the same PRE Hey June, I missed you Where you been, we should chill real soon Hey June, I'm overdue But give it sometime think it through CHORUS She said I wish it was Summer Let's do it again I always felt more than just friends She knows I'm in She knows, but she's leaving VERSE Yo, hey, hey December Don't you know you're cold as **** Man I ain't ever met a chick that's as cold as this January's always down but she's not so nice The March girl always pretty but she's not so bright April, you bring the rains that will change my life Make me think about which one I wanna make my wife My Spring fling's always handled like a grocery bag Always rockin' sun dresses, so you know she bad And though I love em all I just can't deny None of them will ever measure up to miss July And the way she does her thing, is just oh so fly I know Ima see her again, once time goes by... PRE Hey July, you're super fly But down to earth, you're more than meets the eye Hey July, don't say goodbye I'll miss your fireworks up in the night sky CHORUS
