Spent all my cash on trying to make a good feeling last
Buying beer, so sincere is the way I think
When I'm walking around thinking about that missing link
In my being here, I guess tired is what I am
Lack of sleep makes my brain numb and words dumb
Eyes sagging, dark, bloodshot, hard to see
Hard to smile, crack a joke at a party
Giving all the pretty girls halfhearted smiles
You know, the type where you think about how you look when you're doing it
Read it up in a book, waste of time
Like a candy-coated valentine
Experience is what I got for a tortured brain
Lack of knowledge's what I got for feeling this pain
What am I saying, stressing over some bullshit task
Oh, just chill and make the good times last but
Please don't coax my mind
'Cause what I see, I must behold
And I'm staring all the time
So I reach to my fridge
Crack a beer to have some fun
What I need is standing in the sun
Every time I go out, trying to have fun
That's all it is about, dancing oh so drunk at my peak
Hooking up with girls I haven't even known a week
Getting dumb enough to say the stupidest things
Laughing at the chumps doing the most ridiculous things
Making fun of girls with sticks up their sexy asses
Getting dismissed and turned down and walked past
There's one thing, though, and that's that I'm a hypocrite
Because I'm participating in the exact same shit
Making fun of things that I do myself
Oh, well, I'm having fun, enjoy this
Wealth, I guess, but
Please don't coax mymind
'Cause what I see, I must behold
And I'm staring all the time
So I reach to my fridge, crack a beer
Just to have some fun, what I need
What I need is that thing that'll make my heart go wild
And what I see in you lights my soul on fire
I hope you feel the same for me
And I'll feel it for a day, like a needle in my arm
And I'll scream out just the same even though it does no harm
But I got to know these things that put a burden on me
I need you
