Two Cow Garage "American Static"

Brothers

Lonely days lead to drunken nights
Lousy lays bring out the random fights
A car is a home when one is alone
Two friends can stay on the road,
Runaways

And the sun falls on another day
Six more months 'til the month of May
But who do you answer to
When God gave up
and there's so much left to do?

Between the weed and the speed
And the constant nicotine
The pain in their heads
With a Beretta as their beds
Who knew what would become
Of those two lost brothers
Drinking in the park
Dodging the police
and writing to their mothers
Begging take me back please

They never took into account
That their lives would happen
And they would never amount
To the expectations
Brought on by the greed
From the nicotine the weed
And souls would be lost
For the acid and the speed

The drunken nights brought the sun up on them
They left that home that was never forgotten
One went north and the other went to jail
They knew they couldn't win
But they wouldn't fucking fail.

Imagine

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
-John Lennon


I need an escape
from this reality
Dreamscape
Where pain is
Full and strong
And the relief
Is long gone
Where will it end?
Where will we be?
When death
Is the only equality?

Without You

I need inspiration from you
Just tell me what to do
And I'll do it for you
Just like I always do

I gave you everything you asked for
I never asked for anything in return
So just fuck me over like you did before
Back when I would just come back for more

But that shit's over
I turned a new leaf
I won't forgive myself
For what I let you do to me

So stop trying to have your way
This world isn't fair
And I've said what I have to say
You lost my respect
And I have no regrets
All I want to do is
Live in peace without you

So don't hold me back
Just take another pill
And fucking relax
Just let me live my life
I don't need a wife
Who never had a fucking
Minute to spend
Happily

Separated

Separated by time
Oceans, seas, and sky
We're so alone
So far from home

No one could bring me back
To the place where it all began
I'd die before I set foot there
And faced my deepest fears again

Separated by soul
Heart, mind, and bones
We're so alone
So far from home

Never will I fall again
Never will I commit those sins
You better let me go
Before I do that shit again.

Samson and Delilah

He was your Samson
You were his Delilah
Full of strength and love
Until Achilles heel
Was taken advantage of
Now his hair is gone
Strength has waned
He was only a pawn
And it was all in vain
You sold him out
To the Philistines
Then you broke his heart
And took away his dreams.

Chemical Attraction

Endorphins mixed
Pheromones trick
Oxytocin excites
Adrenaline ignites
Junkies
Sin of waste
And of guilt
Danger eats
And always beats
Away at my insides.

The Descendants " 'Merican "

Lost

I am lost.
I can't find my way
I'm swimming in sin
In blood and in gin
I can't find North
South. East, or West
I had the worst
But never the best
So now I take some time
To hang out with the rest.

Mistakes

The scars I hide
Ashamed to the core
The wounds I tried
To heal but they sore
The drugs I find
To keep the pain away
I just wish I had a minute
I just wish I had a day

Life How It Should Be

I stand in front of the audience
People watching as I stand here facing
Hundreds of faces staring back
Feedback pouring through my amp

My foot starts tapping as he starts singing
My hand starts strumming as I start feeling
Feelings that everyone is watching
Everyone is judging me waiting for me to fail

I can see myself now falling
Crumbling down up there on the stage
Everyone watching me fail
As I fall and fill with rage.

Fate

You brought us together
And tore us apart
You're here forever
After we depart
No one knows why
We live or die
Yet you keep it even
Through every season
You are the one
Who pokes fun
At all mankind
With chaos in mind
You are FATE

Competition

I can't stand these feelings
Of always competing
Always pushing for first place
And ending up last.

I don't know why its so hard
To can't drop this and go on
Just live our lives out
And never love again.

But we'll always be here
Shooting for first place
Holding each other back
From full glory.

Today

My writing might be shit
But at least it's from the heart
Writing down the truth
Til the end and from the start.
I can't write when I'm away from the one
But now that we're talking
No longer do I have to run

Goodbye Forever, I Won't Look Back

Autumn comes in slow and strong
The summer forgotten and long gone
I thought I loved you
But my thoughts often deceive
And now I know
You aren't the person I thought I could see
With your lies and your cheating
Your offspring never born
Playing on whichever side is winning
No matter how much you may be sinning
You do for yourself
and never for another
You failed at being a wife
I hope you can be a mother
You will find love
As I will with another
How many times did you make me lose hope?
How many times did I fall back on dope?
You made me want to die time and again
But you're the one who killed
Performed the mortal sin.
