(I Always End Up) Fighting With the Pencil
You thought you saw your god on the fire escape
But you couldn't make out a face
And I know that change is hard, but
I know that you're afraid
That things might stay the same
They can always stay the same
If nothin fuckin' helps
I don't know why we're trying to
You're only happy in the honeymoons
Between your shitty moods
You keep tellin' us you're trying
C'mon fucker we're trying too!
Look where all that trying got us
What the fuck's it done for you?
Well you should try listening to somebody that loves you
I'm just somebody that wants to
And you should try thinking about anybody but you
'Cause everybody loves you
Everybody but you
You're still there you're just not there
The lights are on but only for
Whoever's in there flippin' switches
Back and forth from mad to bored
Yeah we know you're fuckin' fine man
We know what you were before
More than this
Deflated ego, empty head, messy floor
Who treats friendships and problems the same
Neglect them 'til they dissipate or blow up in your face
If you'd just try thinking about
Anybody but you 'cause everybody loves you
Everybody but you
Everybody loves you
Everybody but you
Everybody loves you
Everybody but you
Maybe in some distant future
I'll learn not to ask
Questions I don't want the answers to
Or maybe someday sooner
I'll wrap my head around the fact
That there's a way to change the answers
Before I even have to ask
But you couldn't make out a face
And I know that change is hard, but
I know that you're afraid
That things might stay the same
They can always stay the same
If nothin fuckin' helps
I don't know why we're trying to
You're only happy in the honeymoons
Between your shitty moods
You keep tellin' us you're trying
C'mon fucker we're trying too!
Look where all that trying got us
What the fuck's it done for you?
Well you should try listening to somebody that loves you
I'm just somebody that wants to
And you should try thinking about anybody but you
'Cause everybody loves you
Everybody but you
You're still there you're just not there
The lights are on but only for
Whoever's in there flippin' switches
Back and forth from mad to bored
Yeah we know you're fuckin' fine man
We know what you were before
More than this
Deflated ego, empty head, messy floor
Who treats friendships and problems the same
Neglect them 'til they dissipate or blow up in your face
If you'd just try thinking about
Anybody but you 'cause everybody loves you
Everybody but you
Everybody loves you
Everybody but you
Everybody loves you
Everybody but you
Maybe in some distant future
I'll learn not to ask
Questions I don't want the answers to
Or maybe someday sooner
I'll wrap my head around the fact
That there's a way to change the answers
Before I even have to ask
