The truth comes out it comes out through the cracks When you don't even know it, you still show it I wouldn't admit it, what I was doing wrong I still did it, though I guess I kinda knew it but I wouldn't admit it But the truth comes out it comes out through the cracks when you don't even know it, you still show it Even alone sometimes we're scared to be true What if what I do isn't what I expect me to? What if what I say is a double dose of shit? Where would I sit? But the truth comes out it comes out through the cracks when you don't even know it, you still show it

Punch Party 02:39
I don't wanna be a nihilist, but a nihilist just feels so good I don't wanna believe in this, cause believing this won't feel so good Annihilate those annihilists I'll annihilate them with my fists Punching people is just so fun, punch the old and punch the young Punch the women and punch men, you punch five and I'll punch ten I'll punch you when you're at the store, you can punch me when I go buy more Punch the Mayor, and punch his son, punch everyone Punch party at my place, I'll invite the whole human race The punch is spiked, it's really strong, now It's time to get along If you punch me in the face, I'll punch me in the face

I'm really glad that I don't have to see myself day to day I'm really glad that I don't have to see myself in the past The past does not confront me in the real world But sometimes it does in my mind But it's time to move on I'm really glad that I don't have to be with myself 24.7 Sometimes I get away, I gotta get away from myself And it's time to move on

Who gets along so easy? Who do I love to shoot the breezy? She wanders through the streets, different places those she meets hello Dory, darling baby, how are you? and when she comes around am I destined to be sad? or too insane to be honest? or too clumsy for much sound? OH NO, OH YA Should I just go out and meet her, like the stories say? But the stories were all lies The stories were just lies Hello Dory darling, what is new? Can you see that I've been dreaming? Why don't we go somewhere we wanna be? Can you see that I've been dreaming? Is it much too obvious?

Don't Panic 02:34
Don't panic, when you panic you get lost. When you're lost you're not real. So don't panic, be a good boss. Take a lead and do you part, when you don't panic you can feel. So take a bite of danger, and eat it with the peel you look at it there laughing, and you thank it for the meal.

You're my buddy and I love you you're my buddy through and through you're my buddy when I need You're not alone my friend, you've got a friend in me so when you need a hand, I'll lend one if I can Cause you're my buddy and I love you You're my buddy through and through you're my buddy when I need You don't need to hide, the truth won't hurt you here. You could tell me anything, so tell me everything. Cause you're my buddy and I love you You're my buddy through and through You're my buddy when I need

I can see in front of me, on days when I feel ok without the part of my I got from thinking that I needed something else. I don't need much money, I get by with some and I don't need to be funny, if it's not fun I don't need to have a honey, to fill my lungs but I don't want to be all alone, always. Some people think that I'm a dummy, but I'm not dumb Some days I feel pretty crummy, but my days I still mess up in front of of buddies, but I'm still young and I don't want to be all alone, always.

The best songs are never the same they remind you that you are living and behind you are all thoughts of pain. The best songs won't try and pass the blame they remind you that you're just a brain in a body and she's just the same The best songs don't want anything they just sit there like a coffee stain on a doily that you love to hate And when they're gone you'll find they're never very far just like when I am gone I'm never very far aren't I right here? The best songs get stuck in your head in the morning, just got out of bed they will find you and they'll make you smile The best songs keep coming back for more Coming back to keep giving they remind you you can always sing The best songs will always be true Whether they are yellow red or blue and the pink ones, they can be true too And when they're gone you'll find they're never very far Just like when I am gone, I'm never very far Aren't I right here?
