Best Defense

I know it probably seems like the world makes no sense
You did everything and it made no difference
You still got your heart broken into pieces
Now it's time to stop all of your bloodletting
And try to decide on a brand new heading
You deserve a lot of things you're not getting now
It's killing me seeing you like this
Dying on the inside, trying not to fight it
It's killing me seeing you like this
On your own
I know that it seems like it's all unwinding
Slipping through your hands even as they tighten
But you're still alive and the sun's still shining
You're too strong to let a thing like this beat you
You've got too much heart to let a broke one keep you
From not giving up on a world that needs you now
It's killing me seeing you like this
Sinking with the ship 'cause you don't know how to right it
It's killing me seeing you like this
On your own, but you're not alone
If you could only see what I do then you'd agree
There's a lot more promise here than you might think
There will come a day when you honestly can say
That you're better off this way although it stinks
Take it as it comes and don't let yourself get numb
There's no need to bang your head against the wall
I know you've been burned but in time you're gonna learn
That the best defense is no defense at all

Hard Korean

I remember meeting her
As cute as she was short with rockin' tattoos everywhere
You know I was in awe of her
How could 80 pounds of girl hold 90 pounds of "I don't care?"
Little Tijuana's is where we wound up together
But little did I know it had moved south of the equator
East of the meridian and later by a day
Because I'd just fallen for a girl the southeast asian way
And she's my little porcelain sweetie
Straight from the south China sea
If she ever left she'd be disorienting me
She's my jade eyed cutie
She's got so much Seoul you see
She's a hardkorean and she's all I'll ever need

The fuse is lit and burning
It's time to start the running
But I'm so sick of running
My friend you know it's true
I'm so sick of running from you

Anatomy
01:45

You've got two of nearly everything including eyes and ears and arms
Feet and legs and hands and lungs, but just a single heart
You know that mine is beating just for you and all your parts
Be they one or two or thirty six like your teeth are
Split right down the middle you've got perfect symmetry
And inverted mitochondria that take my energy
Baby, don't you know we're going down in history
Well it's gonna be anato-you and anatomy
Oh it's pretty clever whoever put you together
did it just for me
I wanna be with your anatomy
I love you from the inside out, yeah
I wanna be with your anatomy
I finally got the nerve to tell you

Don't (Call People Fag)
01:48

Kittens and unicorns? Don't fucking push me ever
PROTEIN MILKSHAKE!
When I'm sitting here at home
I wonder where you are
When I go out to a show
I know you won't be there
When I'm calling people names
You know it's not the same
Without you to call them fag
I'm wasting time again
Just wasting time 'cause it makes a good story
I'm wasting time til I can see you again
You may think I'm I little out of line
By saying nothing really seems to matter
But it's all just a waste of time til I get to waste some time on you
When I'm drinking every night
When I'm getting into fights
That's when I know you're not around
When I pass out in the yard
You know it's not the same
When someone else calls me retarded
And maybe I should try just a little bit harder
And maybe moving on would feel a little better
But baby you already heard me say that I don't want to
And I won't move on unless I'm moving on to you
Don't call people fag

Kiddie Pool

Slap a smile on your face, a swimming suit on your waist
We're having fun today
We'll be soaking from noon until our fingers are pruned
And we've shown you a new way
While you're out making plans and starting terrible bands
And drowning in the deep end
We'll be having fun in the kiddie pool
