lyrics

And it's a good time to make some bad decisions
Clean livers, filthy dispositions
We need a good excuse
And we need some time
Our hearts beat the same fast songs
We've had a bad taste for way too long
We've got the best excuse to see stars and concrete lines pass
Beer cans and scream our black lungs out
Greatest excuse, greatest excuse
To waste away our lives
Greatest excuse, greatest excuse
For smiles and high-fives
Greatest excuse, greatest excuse
To waste away our lives
I've got the greatest excuse to waste away with all my friends
Singing here we go again
As times pass, as jobs take time
We gotta scream, scream just to feel alive
Desperation, inspiration
Desperation, my god it's sickening
I gotta scream to feel alive
All my friends, now this is all i see
The greatest excuse to see everything
