[Verse 1] Detox days at the little red House And I think I might be freakin' out Well, sometimes I just want to run away But I've been holdin' out for better days And I've been feelin' homesick And you've been feelin' blue But I love you like I always have I love you like I always have Tonight [Chorus] I've been down and out And a bit under the weather But when you're around Well, you make it a little better I think it's safe to say That I'll be right here forever So baby, don't ya get so sad 'Cause you know that it just really ain't so bad [Verse 2] Sleepless nights, the pain in your thighs And laughing in the worst of times Well, the bottom ain't so lonely When you're sittin' right there beside me And I knew everything would be alright When you looked me in the eyes, and you said "I love you like I always have I love you like I always have" Tonight [Chorus] I've been down and out And a bit under the weather But when you're around Well, you make it a little better I think it's safe to say That I'll be right here forever So, baby, don't you get so sad 'Cause you know that it just really ain't so bad [Bridge] And I know you think that everything sucks so bad Well, you know you're only half right about that And I know that you've been hurtin' right here tonight But when you kissed me out on the balcony that night I never felt so high [Final Chorus] I've been down and out And a bit under the weather But when you're around Well, you make it a little better I think it's safe to say That I'll be right here forever And if we die someday They're gonna have to take us together

[Verse 1] I've been runnin' my mouth for days But every single thing I say Seems to be bringin' you down I need some duct tape for my brain 'Cause I think I'm goin' insane Can you make it go away? [Pre-Chorus] I feel a poppin' in my veins And it's poundin' in my heart And it's tearin' me apart And I hate what I become But I just wanna be numb Yeah, I just wanna be numb [Chorus] Now I got a feeling in my head But I don't wanna have to feel at all I know it seems to me that to break my fall Oh, baby, I don't wanna feel at all I don't wanna feel at all I don't wanna feel it [Bridge] I've been in doubt from the apathy I've been refreshing my Facebook feed But I still see the same old thing And this cycle I'm livin' in Just repeats itself again Man, when will this end [Pre-Chorus] I feel a poppin' in my veins And it's poundin' in my heart And it's tearin' me apart And I hate what I've become But I just wanna be numb Yeah, I just wanna be numb [Chorus] Now I got a feeling in my head But I don't wanna have to feel at all I know it seems to me that to break my fall Oh, baby, I don't wanna feel at all I don't wanna feel at all I don't wanna feel it [Final Chorus] Now I got a feeling in my head But I don't wanna have to feel at all I know it seems to me that to break my fall Oh, baby, I don't wanna feel at all [Outro] I don't wanna feel at all I don't wanna feel at all I don't wanna feel at all

[Verse 1] Something about the way the American's beers tasted And the way the sheets got scrunched up like your face did I try not to think about all the money we wasted on heroin [Chorus] So let's not pretend we don't like it better on the dark side And when you said you lost my Xanax, I know that you lied And we'll stay clean, or maybe not, but, hey, at least We can tell our parents we tried [Verse 2] Top me off, pal, I need an imaginary drink, or two, or three And the second-hand smoke at this A.A. meeting is killing me Have you ever thought about killing yourself out of curiosity? Well, me neither Oh my God [Chorus] Let's not pretend we don't like it better on the dark side And when you said you lost my Xanax, I know that you lied And we'll stay clean, or maybe not, but, hey, at least We can tell our parents we tried [Bridge] Do you read me? Do you read me? Do you lead me? Over and Out [Final Chorus] Let's not pretend we don't like it better on the dark side And when you said you lost my Xanax, I know that you lied And we'll stay clean, or maybe not, but, hey, at least [Outro] We can tell ourselves that we tried We can tell ourselves we tried We can tell ourselves that we tried We can tell ourselves we tried

[Verse 1] Well I woke up this mornin' and the walls started talkin' to me Some days I feel like I'm livin' in a dream And the medicine, it ain't doin' what it should And you know I'd get a move on if I could [Pre-Chorus] Maybe it's just because I got nothin' left And there's nothin' you can do so, baby, save your breath [Chourus] Maybe, just maybe, it's all in my head Maybe, just maybe, it's all in my head [Verse 2] Walkin' down the streets and the headlights are starin' at me Some days I feel like my brain is out to get me And I don't have insurance that covers rehab So I guess I'll move in with my mom and dad [Pre-Chorus] Maybe I'll hit rock bottom and have nothing left Maybe you'll pick me up and hold me to your chest [Chorus] Maybe, just maybe, it's all in my head Maybe, just maybe, it's all in my head [Bridge] And I can feel my mind slippin' away To a rather unfamiliar place As I watch the whole world pass me by As I watch the whole world pass me by [Verse 3] Well I woke up this mornin' and I swear I couldn't even breathe Can we pretend that yesterday was just a dream? And I can't face the day, so I'll just go back to sleep Don't you wake me I don't want to feel a thing [Pre-Chorus] Maybe it's that my head has been in the clouds Maybe it's just time for me to come down [Chorus] Maybe, just maybe, it's all in my head Maybe, just maybe, it's all in my head [Outro] Maybe, maybe, it's all in my head Maybe, maybe, it's all in my head Maybe, maybe, it's all in my head Maybe, maybe, maybe

And they told us that one size fits all, but wait) [Chorus] One size fits most One size fits most One size fits most One size fits most [Verse 2] We're hiring at a different location Tryin' to understand their situation We inherited your debt and inflation And I didn't walk at graduation What do I delete on my DVR? Do you know where we are? No, I can't drive your car I don't know how to use a stick shift (Spoken: I meet, but do not exceed, expectations, cause that sets a precedent that's really hard to maintain. And they told us that one size fits all, but wait) [Chorus] One size fits most One size fits most One size fits most One size fits most (Spoken: When everyone's famous, then no one will be. What used to be called nihilism is now called apathy because nihilism is too hard to spell. My mom doesn't subscribe to my YouTube channel and it hurts, but I'll get over it. And Pulp Fiction is, like, so overrated, right? And they told us that one size fits all, but wait) [Final Chorus] One size fits most One size fits most One size fits most One size fits most

[Lyrics not available on Genius] This is a popular track off of King and Queen of the Loser's initial LP, Crutch. From Scooter: "This was one of the last songs we wrote for Crutch. We had been finishing up the album, and we realized a lot of the album was softer and slower songs. We needed a punk rock banger to even out the sound. I am a punk rocker at heart, and I wanted to embody the sound of some of my favorite punk records on this song. The riff I wrote that plays throughout the song was inspired by Suspect Device by The Stiff Little Fingers, and Kiwi's melody and vocal delivery was inspired by Parquet Courts and Bob Dylan's talkin' blues." Circle K is a gas station on the west coast of the United States.

[Verse 1] I like Jean Luc Godard You just don't like movies But we agree that there's no heaven I like Diet Pepsi You like Diet Coke But we both want to kill Jeff Bezos I think that vinyl's useless You buy CD's and never listen to them But Spotify ruined my future [Chorus 1] I want to see my name in lights And so do you But we're both far too lazy Lazy, lazy, lazy [Verse 2] Gas dropped under three bucks Let's run and fill 'er up while we can We'll fix the windshield later I want to be authentic I also want to drink rosé backstage At least I'm not a landlord I tried to boycott Google Had to move to a shack in the middle of the woods I wanted a Big Mac and came home [Chorus 2] I listen to the same three bands That I did in high school I'm just happy when I'm comfortable Comfortable, comfortable, comfortable

[Lyrics not available on Genius] This is the 5th track off of King and Queen of the Loser's debut LP, Crutch. It depicts someone who is in rehab, how they try to better their life, and how they became sober after hearing the death of a friend that overdosed. From Scooter: "I spent my entire time in rehab writing this song. This song is about me confronting my biggest fears and figuring out who I am. I had lived my whole life blocking everything out, and lying to myself that everything was alright. For the first time in my life I was standing toe to toe with myself, and confronting my demons." "I guess I owe it to myself to get some living done."

[Lyrics not available on Genius] This is the third track of King and Queen of the Loser's debut album, Crutch. This is a song about Scooter Abraham and Kayleigh Palmer getting addicted to heroin in Boston, MA. They had heard that Boston had the purest heroin in the world, so that is where they decided to go for their honeymoon. From Scooter: "The first verse where I say 'break down I'm so withdrawn' is talking about how we felt as we rolled into Boston. I had just barely begun my descent into heroin addiction, and this trip was the point where I went from a heroin user, to a full blown heroin addict."
