Tennis shoes on a telephone wire
Teenagers in a make-shift choir
Singing songs about broken homes
With their sweet bleeding hearts on fire
Keeping track of a pay-you-back last call
Tim's spinning every night until dawn
I'll meet you in the middle
Between the needle and the wax next fall
No one, no one's gonna do it for us
We're screaming so loud, blowing our lungs out
Steady pace down a lonely street
Boulevard of broken dreams
Keep a level head my friend
Cause once you're in you won't see relief
This town's too easy to get trapped in
No time to think about how you're acting, you're laughing
No one, no one's gonna do it for us
We're screaming so loud, blowing our lungs out
Just getting by, living on minimum wage
Don't wanna get stuck in one place
Tennis shoes on a telephone wire
Teenagers in a make-shift choir
Singing songs about broken homes
With their sweet bleeding hearts on fire

Turkish Gold

All the envelopes in my mailbox
Are piling up because I just don't have the stones
To look inside and see just how much I owe
For shit I hardly use
All the things that I have yet to do
Are stacking up like bricks so I can't just get through
It's my lack of motivation, got no will to persevere
At least it seems that way to me
All my friends are getting fucked and thrown in jail
And for the first time I won't be there to post bail
All the rest are getting hitched and having kids
Can't help feeling like time got the best of me again
Turkish Golds are all I can afford
And every day my wallet's getting thinner
I'm sorry dad, but I'm just not the winner
That you wanted me to be
I'm off the rails but I'll try to get it right
Scratching and clawing, hanging on to my life
Did I fuck this one up or will I get another shot?
Probably not
All my friends are getting fucked and thrown in jail
And for the first time I won't be there to post bail
All the rest are getting hitched and having kids
Can't help feeling like time got the best of me again
I've got no plans for family, no plans for growing old
