My friends don't need jobs
'Cause they all sell drugs
And spend their Fridays setting fire with their college degrees
And I think, to some degree, they are more practical than me
My friends don't need God
'Cause they all feel loved
And spend their Sundays sleeping in and getting high in the street
And I think a greater meeting could be right beneath their noses
Oh, Moses, Jesus, Annie full of grace
You know I've been trying hard here, but I just can't hold the weight
Of all this searching in circles, I'm trying to find my place
The empty head feels heavier every day
When Andy broke last fall, we all just shrugged
There 'ain't no purpose fighting holy wars for something you're not
And I think we're better off believing in ourselves
But that's me
A year ago today, I was ten bucks short of a four-quarter solution
Resolution unavoided but learned to spoil it
Don't know how I can make me proud again
Make me proud again
I don't know how I can make me proud again
Don't know how I can make me proud again
Teach me how I can make me proud again
Teach me how I can make me proud again
Tonight we'll watch the presidential candidates debate
And I'll bike 17 blocks down Haverford Avenue to buy a case
And we'll pretend to know our facts
While we verbally castrate the GOP
And we'll make our parents proud by voting early
But whatever the out come next year
Man, too bad I'll still be here
And I'll be sitting on the roof
With my 5 best friends
Talking real big game
On all of our shitty bands
I don't care what you believe
You'll never be on the MTV
So Madison Square Garden's our basement
And if the cops show we'll find their replacement
Tomorrow morning
I'm scrambling every last egg in the God damn fridge
Lily's moved out west
And Nick's moved on to England
There's still a little inkling of me that hopes that they make it together
But I'm just another stupid hopeless romantic
And I should probably not say shit
But who cares
It doesn't matter to me as long as they're happy
Corey just broke off his friendship with
Jon over some trivial bullshit
Probably for pussy
If you said it I wouldn't believe it.
But I'm just another stupid hopeless romantic
And I should probably not say shit
But who cares
It doesn't matter to me as long as they're happy
What is Happy?

This is a challenge for me to get better at home recording. The goal is to record 2 multi-track songs in a day and be able to mix and release them within a week. Hopefully, these will get better.
