Code

2009 when I got high I’d cry every time
World was a dream that only we’d seen
A secret we shared
AnCo was a code and then it got old and then we got over it
Who ever knew top 40 would do?
2009 when I got high I’d cry every time in a good way
But hair it goes gray
What can I say?
What could you do about it?
Spoke in a song
Anthems arm in arm
No one else could sing to it but what did I care?
We had a code and then it got old and then we got over it
And they said we had to go
But we had no place to go
The magic’s alive
I’ve seen Rob and Ty’ve try
I wonder what songs they’ve made but what do I care?
We’ll have a code and it’ll grow old and we will grow over it

Oh, I don’t want a job, I just want to go back to bed
And I don’t want a car, I just want to bike there instead
And I don’t want no money, just some tools to get on by
Nobody asked nobody to pollute all of our sky
But we never asked for a bigger land
But they took it anyway
Oh, I don’t want a job, I just want to go back to bed
And I don’t want a car, I just want to bike there instead
And I don’t want no money, just some tools to get on by
Nobody asked nobody to pollute all of our sky
And we never asked for a war
We never asked for a war
But they gave it anyway

Love As An Action
02:30

I spend much of my time on the myth side
It feeds much of myself in the song times
And, oh, to not know just exactly why your smile makes me sing it is besides the point
It happens
Myth makes the music sound great and the soul high
Love’s a feeling and ain’t it so revealing, it’s the high kind
But does your love feeling cause others love feelings in the meantime?
You say you really feel it, but no one here could hear it
So try
Revive love as an action
Love is in action when you listen, can she hear it?
She can’t be impressed, don’t bother cooking
With bad credit, what’s left? And it’s just me
The new question is: will she really like it at all?
Oh you’d love to watch it fail
But you get that feeling that there’s no way of knowing
So go and follow (fall in)
Love as an action
Love is in action when you listen, can she hear it?
Love is a feeling and when you feel it does she hear it?
Love is a feeling and when she hears it, it’s in action, yeah!

No One Has The Heart

No one (I know) has the heart to ignore it anymore
No one (I know) has the heart to ignore him anymore
No one (I know) has the heart anymore to pretend that we're not fucked...
We’re fucked!
No one (I know) has the heart to ignore it anymore
No one (I know) has the heart to ignore him
No one's ears can stand another word
Don't wanna hear about it!
I can't blame anyone anymore when I can't stand to think about it
I don't have the voice anymore to dwell on just how fucked we are...
We’re fucked!
No one (I know) has the heart to ignore it anymore
No one (I know) has the heart to ignore him

Old Man

When you gonna get it right old man?
Need more than a humanist
I can never think of more than that
When you gonna get it right old man?
When you gonna take a stand old man?
Just a lonely humanist
Not an inch of skin in it
When you gonna give it more old man?
When you gonna take a stand old man?
Wait just for the green again
Not an inch of skin in it
When you gonna give it more than that?
When you gonna take a stand old man?
Nothing but a humanist
Not an inch of skin in it
So when you gonna get it right old man?
When you gonna take a stand old man?
Nothing but a humanist
Not an inch of skin in it
When you gonna give it more than that?
When you gonna take a stand old man?
I’m just my old man I guess

I once had a good time with you
Now it’s stale stagnant air
Breathe deep, but it won’t fill you
Nearly enough to ascend (feel me)
From Hell, we must free ourselves

Singalong

Stoned in the living room I make my home
But think of when you sang my songs
These days would you sing along?
No the truth is they're just not that fun
Home, on the subway ride, that’s where I read my notes
I think of when I used to read on my couch
Oh, back then I had a lot more time to myself
Now there’s a world out there and it needs my help!
The truth is, the truth is…
The truth is it’s just not that fun

Pack a bike lock, a drink, then let’s hit the road and go!
So your phone’s dead, who cares?
You can follow, I’ll ride slow!
Coney Island can solve all your problems if bikes don’t!
Count the flags, there’s a lot (it sucks!)
But by the time we swim it won’t!
Won’t be nothing at all
No, there’s nothing at all
When there’s nothing at all
Yes, your life’s the result of decisions we don’t own
Capital is a cruel lord and really tacky host
But I’m so lucky, it’s true, to share with you this time and home
Count the flags, there’s a lot (it sucks!)
But by the time we swim it won’t!
When there’s nothing at all
No there’s nothing at all
Won’t be nothing at all
