Chromatic 01:35
Who would have thought we’re getting older Looks like we’re never gonna make it out alive And the things we love are getting older And the things that don’t well we just watch them go on by Oh god please wake up In all the things we tried all the freedoms they were lies And oh my god you are contagious In all the wrong ways Who would have thought we’re getting older Looks like we’re never gonna make it out a live And the things we love are getting older And things that don’t well fuck em watch them all die

Once we were warriors We held our hands so tight Well it couldn’t have been for love cause we were to young And now were always criticized by others The summer drew us bright The sun made us grow so long And we laughed at our shadow's names as they danced across the pavement And now were always criticized by others And I don’t think they’ll ever understand us Once we were warriors Till you grew wings and laid your body low I pressed my lips on your knuckles Saw that your skin is still sunburned And now were always criticized by others And I don’t think they’ll ever understand us

The winter snow sits pretty A white glow beneath my city And I’ve never wanted out of here more so in my life Cause there’s not much left to do here No new friends just drinking new beers No no new adventures it’s time for a change, yea Well it’s not far south I would go Cause I miss sweet home Chicago And I miss the bars and all my friends and everyone I know But I’m coming home to see you In a few more months I’m one of you We’re old enough to know that now and it’s time for the change We gotta go now It’s 25 to life
4.
Knapp St. 01:42
You fell in love in a hotel You fell apart in a room on Knapp St. You’re having problems finding new friends So hit the bottle once or twice before you go Now it’s hard to find your own way home It’s getting hard getting older It’s getting old when you know life’s getting hard Those fucking people that you cling to that stab your back once or twice before you go We’ll throw their bodies in the ocean After all you know they wouldn’t change And You shouldn’t change the way you are

Oh, Baby 01:58
Oh baby baby get your act together Come on over and see me let me buy you a drink Woah baby baby put your arms around me Let me lighten the load and we’ll light up a smoke And we’ll dance until we’re free Oh baby baby come a little closer Don’t let the fire in your eyes burn out tonight Oh baby baby come a little close don’t let the fire out tonight Let me take you away Woah baby baby get your act together Come on over and see me let me buy you a drink Woah baby baby put your arms around me Let me lighten the load and we’ll light up a smoke And we’ll dance until we’re free Oh baby baby let me lighten the load let me buy you a drink

Then I felt it, like a bullet Like a lightning bolt right through my soul I moved like a monster and I sang like a drunk I saw her hair flip, I saw her eyes blink I nearly fell right on the floor I knew then I had to know her I asked her how she liked her drink She likes em easy I call bullshit I’ve gotta heavy hand and I pour them strong Even when were on the dawn patrol One more time cover up the ice And we can stumble home She’s the best hangover I’ve ever known

Contracts 01:55
I made my mark dagger blood and all I know the guilt that surrounds it Last details outline all of what it’s worth But that blood there is still haunts me We had a deal I don’t wanna feel anything I wanna wash this blood from my skin But it’s too late for me to change I’m just a goddamn sinner still Along the lines of healing I was burned Self-inflicted wounds thereafter Swinging from my fraying rope I cried “You said that you would save me” We had a deal I don’t wanna feel anything I wanna wash this blood from my skin But it’s too late for me to change I’m just a goddamn sinner still You want to see my rage To know that I'm still breathing To know my heart is still beating slow
8.
Few hours until sunrise You know we can carry these problems home And leave them in alleys to wither to dust Drinking the words we stole you know we can polish this bottle off And make our names holy as blood And now we carry on just like the good old days Don’t worry about tomorrow when there’s hell to pay And now we carry on just like the good old days Just like the good old days When we were dumb enough to care and we were something in the world we buried that We changed ourselves for those we love and fell apart from all our friends and benefited nothing in the end And now we carry on just like the good old days Don’t worry about tomorrow when there’s hell to pay And now we carry on just like the good old days Just like the good old days Woah oh
