Growing Pains

How do I answer all the questions in my mind?
How do I turn a page when words don't cross my eyes?
How do I learn something without feeling dumb?
How do I act old while I'm just so young?
How do I make something without destroying it?
How do I fix problems before I forget?
How do I make it seem like things are real steady?
As if I've figured these things out already
How do you take the love of anybody?
How do you learn to trust anybody?
Cause when I do they just leave me all alone
And try and make believe that I just should've known.

Late Christmas
03:55

All I want for Christmas is some
Warmer sweatpants and nicotine gum.
I've been bad, but I got it anyway,
Well, at least half of one of those things.
I've got issues I'm controlling.
You've got motives color coded.
I've come down with a stagnant sickness,
But I guess I'll go with it.
All I want for Christmas is one
Year where sadness and clouds do not come.
I've tried hard, but the winter kicks my ass
Each time it rears it's ugly head.
I know I haven't been in the best of moods,
But all I want to do is spend this holiday with you.
Is this happening too fast?
Is it me? Is this happening too fast?
Is it me that can't do anything? Is this happening too fast?
This is me. I can't do anything. This is happening too fast.
Stop.

Jealousy
03:32

Picked her up on the side of the road,
Hair a mess, dressed in lovely clothes.
She hopped right in, made herself a home,
Later learned she had nowhere to go.
I know a girl named Jealousy.
I'm nice to her, but she's mean to me.
It's good to know when I'm alone
Cause' Jealousy seems to love my bones.
The years go by and things are still the same.
The love she gives drives me insane.
I dream of her and then that dream turns
To a nightmare full of my concerns.

Drift ft. Matt McFarland

(Drake)
Happiness seems to escape our grasp.
Happiness seems to run around our heads.
And the more we reach for it, it drifts.
So we wonder when this bridge might give.
I know it's not just you, it's me.
I know it's not how this should be.
The more I think of who to blame,
It just gets harder to explain.
I know you love me,
But sadly that's not enough.
(Matt)
Contentment thinking this could last.
Contentment thoughts, will these just pass?
The more I think, the more wood splits,
The bridge beneath us giving in.
Looking into your eyes I see
It's both meant and not to be.
I'm all out of words to say
And decisions are having to be made.
So I don't know why we can't get along or why we're healthier as friends.
I just wanna regulate my mood, but on your words it all depends.
I see you're trying to keep the honesty intact, but laughing is too hard when I'm feeling attacked.
I just worry what goes on when I'm gone, I worry what goes on.
I know you love me.

What kind of man does it make me
If I can't support my own head?
What kind of man does it take to
Find rest?
Cause' I've been stressed out head to toe,
Brittle to touch and to thoughts.
Relief only fleets in the distance
And mocks.
How much do I have to work
To get my name written on a plaque?
That says I've tried my hardest
And not slacked.
Cause' I try my hardest, you know,
Okay, sometimes a little less than that,
But I think that I deserve more
Cash.
Burning brand new holes in my brand new jeans.
Gotta make a buck, don't give fuck about the means.
Questions in my mind driving me to the edge.
9 to 5 work just for money to spend,
But
I live for the wicked,
So I can't seem to save shit.
Brain and cash aren't related,
So no, my tux isn't fitted.
