I Think I Used To Matter
Todd Barriage
It's just me, you know
5' 10", 130 pounds
I spend nights at home
It seems lonely but I rather like it
I sleep alone
The Matthews family tucks me in each night
And I try to fight it
But I want that life
You made me something I despise
But I can't put that on you
Well, I guess I just did
Something I can't shake
'Cause I fall apart when you look at me
Habits I can't break
Like a cringe entry in a diary
I feel like I could die, feel like I could die
Don't know till you try
Could die and day now
Something I can't shake
'Cause I fall apart when you look at me
Leave me alone
As far as I'm concerned you reached a new low
When you said you liked me better like this
I'm sleeping alone
I get a full 8 hours now that you don't keep me up
You can't keep me up
You made me something I despise
But I can't put that on you anymore
Something I can't shake
'Cause I fall apart when you look at me
Habits I can't break
Like a cringe entry in a diary
I feel like I could die, feel like I could die
Let's try this one more time
Could die and day now
Something I can't shake
'Cause I fall apart
'Cause I fall apart when you look at me
'Cause I fall apart
I think I used to matter
We'd spend all our nights
Watching MTV on your parents' couch
And it's not that I want that back
It's just the fact that we don't talk
And when we do, it's weird
And I don't want that
No, I don't want that
I think I used to matter
We'd spend all our nights
Watching MTV on your parents' couch
And it's not that I want that back
It's just the fact that we don't talk
And when we do, it's weird
And I don't want that
No, I don't want that
I think I used to matter
I think I used to matter

i don't want to be here anymore
Todd Barriage
My car won't start, I can't afford to fix it
I'll sing this song and post it somewhere
Pray to God that someone clicks
And here you are
While I've got you there's some shit I need to say
My father worked his whole damn life
Retired with his health
Within a year he died
And I can't say this shit out loud
But I'm kinda jealous he got out
'Cause I don't wanna be here anymore
Yeah, I don't wanna be here anymore
If sorrow shared is sorrow halved
Then tell me why this hurts so bad
My head's fucked up
I don't know how to fix it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Every day's an uphill battle
I've tried it all and nothing sticks
I try so hard to be a better me
But I'm not him today (Yuh)
When I asked you to be my wife
I invited you to hell
To spend your whole damn life
And I knew damn fucking well
That this is who I am
It's how I'll always be
And I can't say this shit out loud
But you'd be better off without me
'Cause I don't wanna be here anymore
Yeah, I don't wanna be here anymore
If sorrow shared is sorrow halved
Then tell me why this hurts so bad
'Cause I don't wanna be here anymore
Yeah, I don't wanna be here anymore
I don't want to be here anymore
fuck

Come Up Short
Todd Barriage
I think about it all the time
What if i was dead?
Would anybody talk about it?
And all this shallow bullshit,
It's what floods in my head
I can't believe the shit I just said
I try to find something else to write about
But I come up short
I'm running out of things to say
I'm just so lost
I feel so lost
I don't know how you even stay
I should mean nothing to you
I cite vacant, empty lines
Where are you?
I'm ever-worsening
I never wanted you to watch me fall
I'm writing songs to try to get this all out
But running circles only goes so far
I'm running out of things to say
I'm just so lost
I feel so lost
I don't know how you even stay
I should mean nothing to you
I know you're better off without me anyway
Yeah, you're better off without me
I'll save you, I swear that's true
I'll save you, please say you'll do
I'll save you, it's what I do
I'll save you
Every time I try to find the reason why
I've been so lost, I get so lost
You always find the me inside the lie
I should mean nothing to you
I know you're better off without me anyway
I should mean nothing to you
Yeah, you're better off without me
I'm running out of things to say
(I know you're better off)
I'm just so lost, I feel so lost
(Without me anyway)
I don't know how you even stay
(You're better off without me)
I should mean nothing to you

Green-Haired Canadian Girls
Todd Barriage
Wait
I’m not in the best place
I find myself admitting that
I feel some type of way
Fuck
I’m afraid
Of a promise I can’t make
I can’t believe I'm saying this
But you make me okay
I think that you’re the one for me
I'm broken and jaded
It’s not complicated
You’re all I know
And maybe that's enough for me
I'm exasperated
Yeah, I just can’t take it
You’re all I know
And maybe you're enough for me
Fate
(This love)
It's something you can't fake
(Is something you can't fake)
I find myself avoiding it
I get in my own way
(I try, I try, I try)
But I can’t find a reason to give up and back out
I’m in my feelings again
‘Cause you’re only the one for me
I'm broken and jaded
It’s not complicated
You’re all I know
And maybe that's enough for me
I'm exasperated
Yeah, I just can’t take it
You’re all I know
And maybe you're enough for me
Yeah, maybe you're enough for me
Yeah, maybe that’s enough
Green-haired Canadian girls are my weakness
Green-haired Canadian girls are my weakness
(So this is life)
Green-haired Canadian girls
(This is evetrything we are)
Are my weakness
(This is us)
Green-haired Canadian girls
(This is everything we need to be)
I'm broken and jaded
It’s not complicated
You’re all I know
Maybe that's enough for me
I'm exasperated
Yeah, I just can’t take it
You’re all I know
And maybe you're enough for me
I'm broken and jaded
Green-haired Canadian girls are my weakness
It's not complicated
Green-haired Canadian girls are my weakness
I'm broken and jaded
Green-haired Canadian girls are my weakness
It's not complicated
Green-haired Canadian girls are my weakness

Joey Sturgis asked me to write a Saosin song
Todd Barriage
You're shaking like a nervous wreck
I've watched you fall apart
And feign that it's okay
You're tracing out your next escape
But it's too far too fall
And you're about to break
I know you want to let go
And I'm afraid that I'm too late
Go
Nothing, forever: it's all that I know
A feeling only I can understand
A lie that I tell to myself
I feel its grip around me again
I'm begging for an answer
'Cause I'm done with everything I know
Know this forever, you're never alone
A feeling only I can understand
You're better now, or so you think
I've watched you force a smile
And feign that you're okay
You tend to dissociate
It's like the world's a fog
And you're lost in its haze
I know you want to let go
And I'm afraid that I'm too late
Go
Nothing, forever: it's all that I know
A feeling only I can understand
A lie that I tell to myself
I feel its grip around me again
I'm begging for an answer
'Cause I'm done with everything I know
Know this forever, you're never alone
A feeling only I can understand
I feel like I am only days away from checking myself out
I feel alive when I have one foot in the grave and I'm here now
I feel an aching sense of nothingness and not a whole lot else
I feel alone and I can't breathe
Go
Nothing, forever: it's all that I know
A feeling only I can understand
A lie that I tell to myself
I feel its grip around me again
I'm begging for an answer
'Cause I'm done with everything I know
Know this forever, you're never alone
A feeling only I can understand

Ruin Everything
Todd Barriage
Fourteen hour days
I work so hard because I hate myself
And I know what you'll say, but it's true
See, if I take any time for myself
Even one day
All my fears will catch up
They won't go away
And these thoughts all come crashing in
And they all say
"You're not alright at all,
I can't stand to be around you"
I feel like I ruin everything
And I don't know if I'll get through this
I feel like I ruin everything
And I don't know if I can do this
To myself
I've seen better days
My eyes didn't always look so sunk in
And these white hairs aren't from my age
I've been grey since 22
I spent the better half of my life in the worst shape
Running from my mistakes like they'll go away
And these songs won't stop me from not being okay
I'm not alright at all
(Nothing's ever enough)
And the voice in the back of my mind is saying
(I'm not alright, nothing's ever enough)
I can't stand to be around you
I feel like I ruin everything
And I don't know if I'll get through this
I feel like I ruin everything
And I don't know if I can do this
To myself
I spent three hours in the shower today
Just zoning out and breathing
My thoughts get pretty sick, it worries me
Like, maybe I'm all alone in this world
Or maybe this is as good as it gets or
Or maybe that's it, and there's nothing more
And it's my own fucking fault that I'm a mess
I feel like I ruin everything
And I don't know if I'll get through this
I feel like I ruin everything
And I don't know if I can do this
To myself

Tactless, Tasteless, Obvious
Todd Barriage
Make those fuckers bleed
I want to see nazi heads rolling in the streets
I can't believe that they share the air we breathe
Now sing with me
Make those fuckers bleed
I want to see nazi heads rolling in the streets
I’m ten toes down, my chest is out
It’s insulting that they breathe the same air I breathe
I don’t believe my eyes
What’s happening, what’s happening?
It’s tactless
It’s tasteless
It’s obvious, you can’t deny it
I don’t believe my eyes
I’m watching you do nothing
I’m watching me say nothing at all
Speak up
I can’t stay silent, it needs to be said
We need to hunt them down
And shoot them dead
I won’t apologize, it needs to be said
Over and over, again and again
Make those fuckers bleed
It’s up
Make those fuckers bleed
Make those fuckers bleed
But who am I? I empathized
I saw misguided people struggling to get through life
I was wrong
The more I learn, the more I realize
Their hearts are just hate
Their joy is your pain
And I’m no saint, but holy shit
Are we really doing nazis again?
Are they really out here chanting nazi slogans?
Motherfucker they have been
Motherfucker, they HAVE been
You don’t win with sympathy, okay?
You don’t win by talking with a nazi
Even if you’re pointing out their rampant hypocrisy
Nobody is going to save us
It's our turn
It's us
We're up
It’s right before our eyes
It’s happening, it’s happening
It’s tactless, it’s tasteless, it’s obvious
It’s right before our eyes
It’s happening, it’s happening
Get tactless, and say it with me
It’s always okay to punch a nazi

Your Love is Sick (The Pee Song)
Todd Barriage
Peeing in the toilet
Is the hardest thing I've done
Pooing off the back seat
Is always so much fun
And you try to hit the back
So it won't bounce back on your face
Oh, no!
Peeing in the toilet
Your love is sick
And all I do is wrong
The pain is in my back again
It's aching and I can't pretend
I'm not older, and over again
I'm tired and I can't contend
I had a thought, but then it left
I'm just getting old I guess
Peeing in the toilet
Is the hardest thing I've done
Pooing off the back seat
Is always so much fun
And you try to hit the back
So it won't bounce back on your face
Oh, no!
Peeing in the toilet
Your love is sick
And all I do is wrong
Go
All I do is wrong
All I do is wrong
1:38
Death
Todd Barriage
Death couldn't be lonelier than you
If home is where you make it
Then I'd never make it anywhere
You say, "Sit with me,
I know you'll be better off if we just sit down and talk"
But you won't listen, please
I want to leap off a bridge with a backpack full of rocks
And nothing you could ever do will change that
And nothing anyone can say
Could ever take away the fact that
Death couldn't be lonelier than you
Lonelier than you, lonelier than you
I'm saying death, to me
It's too good to be true
If home is where the heart is
Then I promise that I'll never love again
When something in the air around you changes
It's something I can't taste or touch or feel
But everything you say
Just comes out all the same old shit
And I can't bring myself to understand or hear
Nothing you could ever say will change that
And nothing anyone could ever do
Can take away the fact that
Death couldn't be lonelier than you
Lonelier than you, lonelier than you
I'm saying death, to me
It's too good to be true
If home is where the heart is
Then I promise that I'll never love again
Never love again

Misdiagnosed
Todd Barriage
I’m misdiagnosed
It’s all caving in
You’re saying you’re sorry
And I don’t know why
'Cause it’s nothing you did
It’s suddenly too late
You’ve already left
‘Cause I won’t say sorry for wanting to die
But I meant what I said
Me? I’m a mess
Not the kind you clean or fix
But the kind that you detest
I’m shit out of hope
I want this to end
I’m changing my number and selling our home
Where you left me for dead
You didn’t talk to me
You just fucking left
I’ll never say sorry for trying to die
Kinda wish that I did
Kinda wish that I did
Me? I’m a mess
Not the kind you clean or fix
But the kind that you detest
The kind that you detest
Me? I’m a mess
Not the kind you clean or fix
But the kind that you detest
The kind that you detest
You couldn’t lose me
So you threw me away
Eugh
Ain’t that some shit?
Make it make sense
You threw me away
I’m in my own way and you’ll never find me
I’m in my own way again
I’m in my own way and you’ll never find me
I’m in my own way again

Depression is a Hell of a Drug
Todd Barriage
So miserable it hurts
It's too much
My face is numb to the touch
I shake and I wince, weep, sleep, and repeat
I'm so sick
Do you recognize me?
I'm not who I once was
Yeah, something changed me
Something broke
Do you even see me?
I'm not who I once was
I'm not who I once was
You take the wind from my wings
You make it harder just to breathe
You take the meaning from everything
You make me clench my teeth
I wake up drenched in sweat
I'm entertaining thoughts of death
Like I won't be here
Like I won't be here
Like I won't be here
Like I won't be
You take the me out of me
You take the me out of me
You take the me out of me
You take the me out of me
You take the wind from my wings
You make it harder just to breathe
You take the meaning from everything
You make me clench my teeth
I wake up drenched in sweat
I'm entertaining thoughts of death
You take the me out of me
You take the me out of me

This Can't Be Healthy (Stay Away)
Todd Barriage
This can't be healthy
This thing between us
It's gonna hurt but it's the truth
I've been feeling empty
I need to get cleaned up
Yeah, I need to wash my hands from you
Stay away from me
It's for your own good, and I'll
Stay away from you
We'll be better off if we both go
I need you gone, but don't go too far
I feel a lack of energy and overwhelmed with apathy
And lately I'm distracted by excuses and the reason why
What you think is what you are
I think I'll never be good enough
I know I'll never be good enough
I'd rather run away from all my problems than fix them
All the right scars in all the right places
I want to tell my friends that I need help but can't face them
All the right scars in all the right places
Stay away from me
It's for your own good, and I'll
Stay away from you
We'll be better off if we both go
I need you gone, but don't go too far
I'd rather run away from all my problems than fix them
All the right scars in all the right places
I want to fall asleep and go so deep you can't wake me
All the right scars in all the right places
I want to tell my friends that I need help but can't face them
All the right scars in all the right places
I'd rather chug a bottle of ammonia and bleach instead
Instead
This can't be healthy
This thing between us
It's gonna hurt but it's the truth
Stay away from me
It's for your own good, and I'll
Stay away from you
We'll be better off if we both go
I need you gone, but don't go too far
