... And you said Please don't change, don't whore yourself out it makes me feel sick, to the chest when I see you hanging out with other girls, that are not me coz you just moved on so fucking easily But girl you've got to understand that this all ended nothing like I planned and I'm just moving on with my life Picking up from before I met you I may have looked strong, but i was breaking down so how dare you condemn me But I guess now that's all in the past After I did everything you asked It looks like nice guys finish last And all those memories we had hanging out at the jetty with your Dad I guess you just don't understand How much you piss me off But I guess now that's all in the past After I did everything you asked It looks like nice guys finish last And now we've lost everything we had But I'm actually really fucking glad That I can get on with my life And just like the spiteful Honey-Bee You stalk and sting your prey You thought you landed perfect but now you're the one in pain and after all those years and months I'll never be the same So go fuck yourself coz you're the one to blame

Happy Now? 02:14
Am I happy now that i can work this simple dead end job and I'll enjoy it while it lasts Or my time will go too fast No longer will I try to impress Jealous friends who always try to Measure themselves to me With meaningless degrees [Chorus] I don't wanna reach my potential I'll wind up claiming I'm special I'll end up in denial Realize I've lost my smile If Daddy gives up on his knees You'll Inherit this families legacy And there'll be no time to smile and laugh (ha ha ha) Gaining fathers love's been tough (Too Tough) I know we had different goals back then You'll treat me as a rival, friend Do you think you did better than I? Because you're living this fucked up lie [Chorus] Stop worrying, stop buying Stop worrying, start trying Stop worrying, stop buying The bullshit that they say stop worrying, start trying to do things your own way

We've gone too far to turn back now And you don't want to stand by But thanks to generations of war We Made Too Many Bombs, trying to save their lives And Nothing is as it seems We've been treated, as machines And even if you think you've done no wrong There's been corn in your soft drink all along And that money that you've spent on your coke Does little to stop, the farmers going broke While the government cuts, deals to keep it low It's all fair game and the consumer doesn't know But scrutinizing a label, won't save a life Make friends with a farmer, and his wife Try reading in a rib-house, maybe you will find It's only up to you Scrutinizing a label, won't save a life Make friends with a farmer, and his wife Try reading in a rib-house, maybe you will find It's only up to you, to educate your mind It's only up to you (to educate your mind) Educate your mind

Blew It 01:56
Yeah I've been broken And I've been a man in need She could be my potion But my conscience says it's greed You can't let a bro down Even if he's let you down before But when she's across the ocean She won't want him anymore I Hope that you don't have a clue The shit that she wants me to do While you're sitting on the phone Watching foxtel alone What would you do? And how would you do it? Would you say you followed through? Or would you say that you blew it? Yeah what would you do? So put yourself, in my place Your mates girl's all up in your face Showing you her underwear made of lace This chick is a-ddicted to bass [x2] Yeah what would you do? And how would you do it? would you say you followed through? or would you say that you blew it? Yeah What Would you do?

I'll be the first one to admit That everything just turned to shit When you, decided that you'd had enough of me But when you were on the same boat Struggling to stay afloat Well i guess, a future must have been hard to see And I've turned into a fucking monster Working through a six day roster Doing everything to show no pain Doing anything to keep me sane And though it all ended on a sour note I'm most haunted by this direct quote "I'll always be here for you, no matter what" Well thanks a lot, you fucking forgot! And so i parked my car in a quiet spot Down by the river, across from a vacant lot And it was Just you and me And an awkward cameo from Paul Haselbee You said you just wanted to friends But i still wanted more Because they say that possessions nine tenths of the law And you were with me, but you were never really mine I guess that i never really did toe the line I didn't plan for this, but i'll be fine Because all wounds heal in time But the transition period, oh it's living hell! Knowing that i'll never wake up to your hairs sweet scented smell No longer having a companion by your side feeling like Tom Hanks (TOM, HANKS) When Wilson was taken by the tide And when i said you meant nothing to me, i lied This is no longer an issue of pride After such a long and bumpy ride Please don't forget how hard i tried
