Left a dollar on the register today 35 working at the local Safeway Saw a person from the back and I thought it was you The years have passed and I’ve halted my progress but it’s good to see you come around on the holiday and find some time to reminisce about the days of our youth Even though I don’t say much, I love our talks and you could stay longer than the holiday Even though I don’t say much We could hang together every single weekend we’ve always liked each other now we got a reason to see past all the other stuff I have become tired of the way I have been living and you seem like you have also lots of feeling except when we’re laughing it up Breaking bottles on the curbside all the way we would run around together like a hurricane saw a person from the back and I thought it was you We could stay in for the night and just get high play some Golden Eye or build a model airplane saw a person from the back and I wished it was you Even though I don’t say much, I love our talks and you could stay longer than the holiday Even though I don’t say much We could hang together every single weekend we’ve always liked each other now we got a reason to see past all this smaller stuff I have become tired of the way I have been living and you seem like you have also lots of feeling except when we’re laughing it up And even though I can’t compete with money or degrees you seem much less stressed when we’re hanging out Even though I can’t compete. Left a dollar on the register today 35 working at the local Safeway Saw a person from the back and I thought it was you

Lyrics for “STRAWBERRY KISSES” I know a girl who downs a sixer a day And she spins around town like it’s judgement day Strawberry kisses for the first time today I have the sense that it’s an awful idea, But she’s strikingly convincing of her innocence Strawberry Kisses for the first time today I’m amplified and alive and I want p p play I’m just so pent up and stressed out with sh sh sh shame But don’t offend, hold it in Keep your c c c cool. She’ll leave you worse off than you were when you met Or fill you up with clarity and confidence Strawberry Kisses for the first time today High-strung with issues and manipulative, But undeniable and very hard to quit Strawberry Kisses for the first time today. I’m amplified and alive and I want play I think you’re pent up and stressed out with shame But I’m right here for the taking I’m ready for the taking, I’m Right here for the taking by you Right here for the taking I’m Ready for the taking I’m Right here for the taking by you I know a girl who cannot be possessed But she’s perfect in her way and tastes like sacrament Strawberry Kisses for the first time today So let’s get together while we’re mobile and strong I’d rather go for a ride than try to solve the whole world Strawberry Kisses for the first time today.

I am offended by the words that you are saying You must not say them 'cause they are offending me This is not a forum for an open discussion You must not disagree, you must not disagree with me 'Cause you got opinions you share with your friends CONFIRMATION BIAS Pounding on the fault line, gather all the like-minds CONFIRMATION BIAS I am offended by the opinions you are having You must not have them 'cause they are offending me This is not a form of freedom of expression You must not disagree, you must not disagree with me 'Cause you got opinions you share with your friends CONFIRMATION BIAS Pounding on the fault line, gather all the like-minds CONFIRMATION BIAS Living in a tribe, living in a tribe, living in a tribe, living in a tribe, living in a tribe, living in a tribe, living in a tribe...
