My Life As Rob Gordon (Amazon/iTunes Bonus Track)

(album: Suburbia: I've Given You All And Now I'm Nothing - 2011)

Kelly says that at the end of each relationship
The boy starts quoting lyrics from that Movielife song
And my mom says there's songs with her name in them
Except that one about a crackhead in Janie's Got a Gun
Well Matt says, when I mentioned him in Bar Bands
Kids started asking questions
It got weird kinda quick
And I had a dream that
We named a kid we never had after Hannah Hold On
And I haven't listened since
Cause it tears me to pieces

Someone keeps putting on all of the sad songs
I keep singing along
The jukebox turns and I'm gone
I poked in all my quarters
Looking for the perfect swan song to walk out on

Stevie said that if I woke up feeling hopeless
That I should think about it different
That I had it all wrong
It's not the end if you call it a new beginning
Plus it's a chance to write some bitter fucking love songs
I heard Quentin belt the notes to some words that Alex wrote
About dying alone
And I felt sort of whole
It takes a fucked up head to think about dying alone
When you're in you're twenties
So I'm glad it's not just me
It takes a fucked up head to think about dying alone already

Someone keeps putting on all of the sad songs
I keep singing along
The jukebox turns and I'm gone
I poked in all my quarters
Looking for the perfect swan song to walk out on

Someone keeps putting on the sad songs
Someone keeps putting on the sad songs

Someone keeps putting on all of the sad songs
I keep singing along
The jukebox turns and I'm gone
I poked in all my quarters
Looking for the perfect swan song to walk out on
