lyrics

It's 2 o'clock in the morning and i'm drinking coffee like it's going out of style. you're smoking cigarettes like you're life depends on it to turn your lungs as black as the times. my mothers calling me on my cell phone to ask me if i'm coming home. I said "i'm never ever ever ever ever coming home and you can, you can count on that."

"just keep you're head on straight, you know how you get"
i said "i love you mom and you best not forget"

we're meeting all the wrong people in all the right places, i wonder if it's true. were they like me when they began, is this what it takes to be a man? this double standard always seems to rear it's ugly head.

"I know it's bad right now." "It's the Worst that it's been."
"but if it was always good, then we'd still all be kids."

I go back to my house and put bob marley on. as i crawl into bed, yeah man, he signs his songs. He says "everything is gonna be alright" and he has never lied to me before.

"so live it up now kid. and may the go times, they last.
tonight we're drinking coke because we can't afford the jack."

and heres to growin' up and never growin' old because you know that we'll never die
