Lyrics:
I'll tell you why I don't want to know where you are I got a joke I've been dying to tell you The silent kid is looking down the barrel To make the noise that I kept so quiet I kept it from you, pitseleh
I'm not what's missing from your life now I could never be the puzzle pieces They say that god makes problems just to see what you can stand Before you do as the devil pleases And give up the thing you love But no one deserves it
The first time I saw you, I knew it would never last I'm not half what I wish I was I'm so angry, I don't think it'll ever pass And I was bad news for you, just because I never meant to hurt you

It was originally released by their band Heatmiser on the album Mic City Sons and then later an acoustic version with just Elliott was released on New Moon.
Lyrics:
Well you shouldn't doctor yourself Well I pictured somebody else Someone that looks like What I look like Would you say that one of your dreams Got in you and ripped out the seams That's what I'd say That's what I'd say
He was a sucker for your double dose Motherfucker turned white as a ghost Don't you say hi Don't you say hi With a broken sink for a face And a head that just takes up space He's not half right He's not half right
It's already half past And it won't last
I was sticking up for my friend When there's nothing much to defend It's a lost fight It's a lost fight Cause when I talk to you on the phone Well it's just like being alone It's not half right It's not half right

Lyrics:
A low riding junkie girl Rode down south to yr little world like a dream You can do it if you want to You can do it if you want to You can do it if you want to be like me I wouldn't need a hero if I wasn't such a zero If I wasn't such a zero
Good to go All I ever see around here is things of hers that you left lying around It's all I ever see around here
She kicked New York like a curse And you traced her footsteps in reverse up to queens You can do it if you want to You can do it if you want to You can do it if you want to be like me I wouldn't need a hero if I wasn't such a zero If I wasn't such a zero
Good to go All I ever see around here is things of hers that you left lying around It's all I ever see around here Some empty envelopes from some other town It's all I ever see around here I'm waiting for something that's not coming

I'm waiting for the train Subway that only goes one way The stupid thing that'll come to pull us apart And make everybody late
You spent everything you had Wanted everything to stop that bad Now I'm a crashed credit card registered to Smith Not the name that you called me with
You turned white like a saint I'm tired of dancing on a pot of gold-flaked paint Oh we're so very precious, you and I And everything that you do makes me want to die Oh I just told the biggest lie I just told the biggest lie The biggest lie
Special thanks to Andrew for helping me record and letting me use his equipment.
