I stopped smoking marijuana Got addicted to chicken pho Now I head to bed before Taco Bell closes I'm so goddamn grown up Maybe now I could call my mother Someday other than her birthday Start a pension, or exercising Stop being so dependent Live for someone else Something bigger than myself Like Hell, I'd tell a friend secrets That don't reflect my better sense God forbid that they'd catch wind Of what I really think And when the awful truth Decides to bubble to the surface Contest its existence Dress it up in excuses And let ‘em try To sift through the pieces Let ‘em try To piece together meaning Let ‘em try To think they make a difference Let ‘em try Let ‘em try I took a sip of liquid courage You know I never liked the hard stuff Good news the billboard says, says ”don't be disappointed The road to happiness, is the first exit on the left" I nail myself against the cross Need some help to drive the last one Can you swing a hammer with your mouth shut? At least I've got something to fall back on Is that not better off? Not like that time I got so high I thought I died and gone to Utah I tried to find my way back home By sleeping on the futon Not once had I thought of how I got There in the first place If I could fix myself And not be right Well, I'd stay broken But I tried To sift through the pieces And I tried To find some other meaning And I tried To think I make a difference And I tried At least a couple times
