joyride 03:05
Looked out the window you were bopping your head Was it to this song? And are we now friends? A summer drive with fries and so right skies We never knew Ohio’s so pacific Fake out you know we thought them drugs were Crüe Drank all our summer nights out by the pool And we hit the sun so hard it belted out this tune we’d lose ourselves just sitting in it Scream at the night we need to get the fuck out Turn to 11 Kobie's leaving town Got a lot of good intentions on the road to hell But nothing leaves except the logic Blind ambition going a hundred and five I could swore we flew down Mulholland drive Our idols nearly killed us maybe saved our lives well ain’t Ohio so pacific Don’t fight this shit is all about the ride We found better And we found better routes Don’t fight its all about the ride We found better And we found better routes I’m sorry I’m sorry fuck all your tired ways No one drives the future you keep looking sideways Don’t fight the joy is in the joyride We found better And we found better routes We get loud when we see the outs We get down when the summer sounds

shotgun 02:58
You had that Cleveland vibe Your hair flippin to the side a stunner for the Tribe, your out here showing Coulda met you on the quad Getting down to the latest songs Cause you’re just enough to keep from drowning slowly You shotgun baby stop you’re all out of control And now you shotgun you better stop you’re all over the road And you shotgun baby stop your all out of control And now you shotgun you better stop you’re all over the road Drinking in your poetry Swimming in ur heart disease Bakin in Bukoski lit up our loathing Kicking back to chaos Maybe that'll make us famous Maybe you forgave us but I don’t forgive me yeah Its so fun in the fear baby You’ll never know where we could have been You fight the fire and our future kids Never let love be never let love in It’s live fast it’s robbery It’s live fast it’s robbery It’s live fast it’s robbery It’s live fast it’s robbery

dare 03:20
Pounding Lakeshore Drive and I see you The cars all crash and sound in the rear views We’re all lost souls beware there are no redos Got us running got us running do or die But we’re hundred hundred like them hot Julys I keep it coming keep it coming every night And we’re buzzin, buzzin cause we dare to fight back Back like a heart attack popped on a jacket and nice shoes And we’re in that ring again broken & still cool Got that Midwest heartbeat new york no sleep west views Gotta greatly dare gotta greatly move you New life living it good times winning at altitude There’s always something more to prove Got us running got us running do or die But we’re hundred hundred like them hot Julys I keep it coming keep it coming every night And we’re buzzin, buzzin cause we dare to fight back Give in to that great devotion, even if it won’t go down smooth We’ll restart our lives fuck that old news There’s always great despair so become bulletproof Proud of home, its love, but it’s not our truth Make a lotta great fails pay even greater dues Don’t start slippin back stay where the livings at its ours to lose Don’t wait for the tomb Got us running got us running do or die But we’re hundred hundred like them hot Julys I keep it coming keep it coming every night And we’re buzzin, buzzin cause we dare to fight back

I see the night it starts to sing Feel the darkness on the pier as its waving at me I’m out here for the accessories Watch the mouse that’s upstairs crush it investing Why does it all come crashing Why can’t this thing be lasting show your peace I bite the silver from the ring Gonna kiss it goodnight while they're all laughing I know I know we lost it in America I know I know it's evident we lost it in America Drowning we’re drowning choking on the irony I know I know we lost it in America I curl my toe and start flirting Sunk down in the sand as the greed starts shifting Hold it up to the light so you believe Its the same damn one and I’m same damn me And what was I to do now? And how shall I proceed with this fantasy? I'm choking on the irony gonna have to spit it out cause it ain’t my suffering I feel us drowning I can feel us drowning I feel us drowning I can feel us drowning I know I know we lost it in America I know I know it's evident we lost it in America Drowning we’re drowning choking on the irony I know I know we lost it in America

I like the way you roll around And you crash in the world Get back city get back city I send the waves to your heart And the vibe to ya girl Get back city get back city

I know you feel like an outsider, baby I know you feel like an outsider, girl I know you feel like an outsider, baby But you’re much too bright to be just anyone Everyone’s impressing all the same But you don’t fit the picture or the frame Couldn't wait for your arrival to the game But then you got cut off and I’ll never be the same I still feel the anger and the pain Whenever you tear up and I can’t put on a brave face Maybe this is how we man the waves When everybody’s drowning everybody can’t be saved And I guess it’s not your time I will believe your life I still feel your smile ripping me And I promise you will know All the beauty in this world I still want your smile ripping me up
