Gear Isn't Expensive

I've held onto this tune for weeks,
until I could say that I wrote 24 more songs
than the four of us have written all year long.

I should keep my opinions to myself,
but I've bitten my tongue to shreds.
I'm trying to think of new things to say
when people ask what the deal is.

The truth is I don't know.
Rehearsing in my room alone.

But I tend to say that my van should have three times the mileage,
buying gear isn't expensive,
or that law school seems like a better plan.

That we're growing in new directions
or that you've got some work ethic to spare
so you should spare some work for your band instead.

The truth is I don't know.
Rehearsing in my room alone.

But I'll get the word on streets
Just think how Sal's
oh so disappointed.
We've waited all this time,
and I'd do anything for you guys,
but you should have seen the warning signs.
Hurting my hand to write these lines.

Because I think that this is it.
