"Your Ego Is Writing Checks Your Body Can't Cash" lyrics
"Your Ego Is Writing Checks Your Body Can't Cash"
I got up and made my way to the door
And I dropped my conscience on the way out
I turned and I looked back down on the floor
But my conscience wasn't there anymore
So then I got to thinking...
Was it there in the first place?
Can you read it on my face?
'Cause I just don't care anymore
And I just don't give a damn anymore
Why just take tonight?
Can we try to keep on riding through these?
To light our way through the night
Just to see what we find
Told everyone I would try to get by
But I felt like I was wasting my time
I found my way this time
So why should I try
To stay grounded when my head's in the sky
Then I got to thinking...
Will they miss me when I'm gone?
Will they leave the porch light on?
If I can't find home anymore
Or will I not have a home anymore?
Why just take tonight?
Can we try to keep on riding through these?
To light our way through the night
Just to see what we find
When we go
We'll just live our lives by rocky roads
And our eyes got to second-place brides?
'Cause I'm feeling lucky tonight?
And I'll just stick stick stick to the things I know
If you'll just quit quit quit quit bugging me about it baby
And you'll tell me that I'm missing out
'Cause I don't give a damn anymore

This Wild Life - "Lost Boys" She said to go and get lost boy
I said I’m already dead
How did we get caught in a mess like this?

The Wonder Years - "Melrose Diner" I hate your bad tattoos and your second-hand stories;
those anecdotes that grew old last month.
I hate the way you move when you’re drunk and try dancing.
It’s not sexy.
It’s just keeping us up...
We Were Sharks - "Bridge Burner" Keep burning down bridges
That lead back to friends
Decisions that were made
You'll regret in the end
Keep burning down bridges
You keep burning down bridges

Angels & Airwaves - "Voyager" My oh my, the coast is never that clear
Hate them rocks and stones, quit throwing them here
Shut that door, the locust is coming inside
Get out them boots and walk off that miracle mile

Like Pacific - "Sedatives" It could've been worse
I could've been you
I could have gone to such great lengths
Mislead the distances it took to follow suit.
