lyrics

Happens all the time
when I'm wondering what to write
when you're under the stairs tonite, call my line

Happens all the day
when I'm wondering what to say
when you wonder if I'm okay, I'm sure I'm fine

Happens just to me
when I'm wondering what to wear
when I wonder if they won't care when I'm not here

Happens all the week
when I wake up in the dream of hurt
when I pull out my box of dirt

Happens all the time
when I can't pay for the bus
when I can't buy food for us I run and hide

I can learn from me
like we did in the 80's
back with multi-color sheets, black and pink

When I crank out a sweaty shirt

When you message a four year flirt

When you carry a holy thirst

When I make up a silly lie

When I tell it to all of my guys

When I take out both of my eyes
