This is someone else's scene I'm an Immigrant There's a party down the street But I didn't get an invitation I'll still show up at 2 or 3 Am And oh good god I'll be belligerent And firing all my guns You can have back all the cash And all the nights I wasted Thinking that you'd fuck me Like you did to the ones the river took You can have back all the cut up bags And superficial conversations I'm having a clearance sale On all my fucking baggage

Waiting for a hurricane To come and wash out the North end Me and all of my friends will sit on rooftops and sing "The city I see is a different city Than the city I see in my dreams And the person I am is a different person Than the person that I want to be" Tonight it's curb-sit with gut-rot From too many butt-smokes and refills Tonight it's paint fingers and black sweaters Oh you young criminals

No sleep till' Thunder Bay Let the coffee dilate our eyes It's gonna be a long drive (LONG DRIVE) It's gonna be a long night I'll look out for wildlife If you look out for cops We'll stop for refills At all night restaurants You know that I feel safe here Wrapped up in the stories you tell About being on the roadfersolong You can't turn back now I'll look out for yesterday If you look out for cops And we'll stop for refills At all night donut shops It's gonna be a long drive It's gonna be a long night

You still have both your Nintendo controllers Plugged into your 64 You play MarioCart against the computer While the other controller gathers dust on the floor I still order two cups of coffee When I go out and I dine alone I sit and sip one of them slowly While the other cup just goes cold And we're both left wondering where we went wrong I swear that I loved you the best way I knew how You still have all of the letters I sent you As if I mailed them today But the pages are getting brittle And the ink is starting to fade I still go by our old apartment Buzz up to number 301 But the new tenant who lives there Says he'll call the cops if I ever show up again And we're both left wondering where we went wrong I swear that I loved you the best way I knew how

Find the courage to lift my head Off of this mattress stained with piss From nights that I'd much rather forget Find the courage to say the words Before they die in the back of my throat Like hold your tongue and that joke isn't funny anymore Caskets for christmas Friends that I will miss Replaced by skeletons and ghosts You say that it's harmless But the scars on his arms say he's tired of going alone I'm glad that you don't understand the tragedy I wouldn't wish this on the worst of my enemies But my dead friends think you're a shitty comedian
6.
Leave your oven on and burn down your new apartment If you decided to call I'd turn up the stereo and ignore the phone and if you decided to stop on by I'd turn out the lights and pretend no one was home 'Cause I thought you were perfect Like the lawns in the suburbs But I found bones in your closet and I found out you're just as fucked as me I thought you were flawless Like an auto-tuned pop song But you've got less substance Than a hair metal band covering a hair metal band
