Best Friend 05:16
there's throw up in the trashcan now the hotel room smells like shit i bet it was my sister she could never hold her liquor dark streets and words we don't understand you looked at me and said i don't know where i am and that's when we both knew that it would take knife to cut this apart it would have to go through my heart cause i wanna be your best friend i wanna waste away next to you and get drunk all afternoon i'll be your best friend i'll be your best friend your best friend, your best friend it's my red wine it's never having a valentine it's a ghost screaming irony right before your eyes it's my selfish thoughts that you feel just the same it's your nasty remarks and the way you always say my name late nights spent trying to figure out how we can make this work yeah we want it all we want to want something new and improved we won't settle for this much longer it's never getting better that's why i'll be your best friend i wanna waste away next to you and get high all afternoon i'll be your best friend i'll be your best friend your best friend, your best friend i just want a best friend someone i can tell all my secrets to i know, i know you got them too i know, i know you got them too i know, i know you got them too i know, i know you got them too we were seeing traces we couldn't feel our faces passed out in a taxi cab then kicked on the pavement do you remember when we first met? a craigslist ad that led to your basement how many open mics will it take until we get something? this house is falling apart but it's more like a work of art and maybe one day we'll move out into a big house with an indoor pool, make our own rules have statues in the living room with a big tv so we all can see our faces on mtv but it still won't beat or be as sweet as the times we spent on colfax street

nothing there's nothing new to do or say there's nothing to tell you i've been sitting around the house between the kitchen and the couch it's always sunny in san diego but this week i've been keeping my curtains so tight oh i know it's true i'm blue no matter what you say you couldn't tell me there's a better way sunlight it's burning out my eyes i'm going back inside until the moonlight then we'll be howling like wolves playing games, spilling beer through the night it's always sunny in san diego but this week i've been keeping my curtains so tight oh i know it's true i'm blue no matter what you say you couldn't tell me there's a better way so true so blue no matter what you say you couldn't tell me there's a better way don't wanna quit you're a good bad habit you're a good bad habit you're a good bad habit you're a good bad habit i don't wanna quit no matter what you say you couldn't tell me there's a better way so true so blue no matter what you say you couldn't tell me there's a better way

Colfax 03:49
leaving four chicken nuggets in the bag, what the fuck man? the serving size says five, who the fuck does that? kids like you who fall asleep on the couch unintentionally every night then talk about how they don't go out keep the curtains shut and try not to think about everyone who's not hanging out with you at your house turn the music up just a little louder i can still hear my stomach growling whiskey sours and morning headaches one seven five one colfax never giving the neighbors a break tear the walls down then build it all back doomed to finish but at point where it's not too bad you can suck it up or you can move out look back, think about the story of colfax when we piled on in and screamed it all out the chili banditos and their taco punk workout tattoo it on your thighs then praise it till you die oh san diego i wanna hear you scream tonight turn the music up just a little louder i can still hear my stomach growling whiskey sours and morning headaches one seven five one colfax never giving the neighbors a break one seven five one colfax never giving the neighbors a break one seven five one colfax never giving the neighbors a break and maybe one day we'll go on tour when it won't put us flat broke our last got cancelled cause max got caught smoking dope will gets in behind the wheel he turns to me and then he says "i'm fine i'm chewing bubblegum and i just ate a sandwich" turn the music up just a little louder i can still hear my stomach growling whiskey sours and morning headaches one seven five one colfax never giving the neighbors a break one seven five one colfax never giving the neighbors a break one seven five one colfax never giving the neighbors a break
