make the world go away
a couple of winks between nightmares
you've only ever seen me in the dark after we've been drunk for a while, i don't owe you anything
you barely set aside the standards that you've used to lead, but you don't owe me anything
i'd rather we just met in the spirit of odd fantasy, minus old jealousy
you've got your sea legs, you've got your party hat, you've got your angel wings
you've got everything anyone could ever do yet you're bored and you can't tell what to do
you fucking spoiled little brat i hate you
a mockery of the sanctity of some weird vague thing
here i was hoping that your utopian dream is coping with my karaoke scene
when while you were sleeping, i am sleeping around on you, in the guilt that i am living so you don't have to
you can't shame me but i don't blame you for judging me through what i had to do
although you're faking, you just made it so you would lose, now you'll never have to wonder what if you choose
i don't remember being younger, i don't remember being anything at all
now that i've lost it, and i've lost you but that's ok it's true, i'm just not sure how i can do it without you
a weird wind
i can't watch any tv, somebody does what somebody sees
i only dream that you think of me when i am asleep
i got a horse that i can't break, but it don't matter
cause one day i'll be free, i'll be free, i'll be free, to run run run run run run i'm running away
electrical wire shooting volts through my veins, setting my body on fire
spirals in my brain, dust in all the cracks, every day sifting through what's held back
but i can't sleep with all this electricity running straight through me
but i'll be free, i'll be free, i'll be free, to run run run run run run i'm running away
i don't own any cd's somebody sweats when somebody bleeds
now that i'm broke i've got nothing to say, no confidence without money the bread that i pay
a weird wind is blowing inside out of me, but none of it matters
cause soon i'll be free, i'll be free, i'll be free, to run run run run run run i'm running away
i'll be free, i'll be free, i'll be free, to run run run run run run i'm running away
i'll be free, i'll be free, i'll be free, to run run run run run run i'm running away
amateur magic act
is she innocent, oh god no, she's the woman of my soul
she got nothing i can hold, hips of fire, oh man, oh man, oh man, oh man
how could i have been so bold, she could see that i can't hold my own, my own, my own, my own
a painted picture of that look, hardest hit i ever took
bells ring in holy desire, i'm feeling fucking old man, old man, old man, you want a dinosaur instead
all the beauty i can eye couldn't teach me to kiss like a victim tonight
woah man, woah man, woah man, act natural
angel wear
if it's not a game to me how come i feel so fucking played
how a vow of silence, how about a vow in pounds can betray
a liar blonde w/ angel wear in an auburn haze
every day i think it's rain and every day it's all the same, all sunshine
the lonesome wolf prays, everyone knows who's going insane
if i were a ghost, i'd be the ghost of a gnome
i have a soul for which i am on my own
the lonesome wolf prays, everyone knows who's going insane
by how many ends may i burn the candle
she said you'll stop living in pain when you chop off your mane
and start creating the sunrise out of heart break
for so long that he said that his jaws were aching
and if the mind is a temple we must not be faking
i need a boat filled with ice
and when it melts for the river to bail me out
the dried remains of a womans flower crown
lay pressed between the pages i have found
salvation beyond the touch and now
exploiting the sadness of my enemies i will drown
i need a boat filled with ice
and when it melts for the river to bail me out again
canadian punk rock t-shirts
scary three words that will liberate you from pain
things have changed
all is not the same
things have changed
don't be a slave or be a slave it's all the same to me
evidence of gold is to be saved and be sane
evidence of the soul is told what it means
lo and behold is all that refrains
cobwebbed and swept and blown out these brains
capo for a twelve-string
this side wants you on mine defining where we lie
time can only sometimes stretch it all out and lay it on the line
why do you notice me
why can't i abstain
style while we vain
why do we lie it's fake
why do i try i'm sinking
capo for a twelve-string
smile is a good way to hide what it's like
to try to be peaceful about everybody all up in my face all the time
why do you notice me
why can't i abstain
style while we vain
why do we lie it's fake
why do i try i'm sinking
capo for a twelve-string
century
there's no reason to lie
hold it hold it now hold it down and let it die
i've got smiles as high as sky
mine as wide as miles high
force another to cry
sabre dance also sprach zarathustra in hi-fi
i've got smiles as high as sky
mine as wide as miles high
sent a letter to bribe
polio suicide tesla and einstein
i've got smiles as high as sky
mine as wide as miles high
all ends the moment you try
nevermind well ok if you must let's try
i've got smiles as high as sky

dat self
remember he's an enemy he's not your friend
he's not got a heart but a hole there instead
gotta know when to leave him know when to walk out that door
cause he's coming for blood and he'll take so much more
he's not listening to a word that you said
nothing really matters to him cause he's dead
he said he'll pick you up when you finish work
but he forgot now you're late alone in the dark
remember he's an enemy he's not your friend
he's not got a heart but a hole in his head
gotta know when to leave him know when to walk out that door
cause he's coming for blood and he'll take so much more
destroy everything
so nihilistic of me
just so pomo can breathe
all my friends that i miss
can you give them a kiss for me
tattoo hickey neck all over my breath
take away my sadness you can keep what's left
all over your mouth i finally feel free
checking my heart beat makes me heart beat faster
held captive in my own pile of shit waitin for disaster
so i can throw a fit about how i'm hardly free
this unforgiving crown you've worn all around town
is turning you bald man now you can never look down
your famous last words are a burden to all my dreams
false idols are the hopes for everyone of a kind
who give it up now beause your baloney is blind
forget what you expect forget it all in respect of all time
women are angels of compassion for men
who are fools for every last drop addicted to the scent
i'm living like a rat inside your empty belly
so nihilistic of me
just so pomo can breathe
all my friends that i miss
can you give them a kiss for me
deus ex machina and oh my god i can't believe how good it was
a couple of kids on an old beaten down farm
paint all the doors to find their way through the dark
to just keep on trying to just keep on smiling
when you open your arms that's where everyone's hiding
perhaps you were meant to love from a distance and fall in resistance
all the while everyone dancing back and forth and side to side
under brooding moonlight denying the sunshine inside
as for the wild in the wild as for the wild a lonesome truce
it has nothing nothing there's nothing you can lose
and i know i'm not ready cause i still feel like dying
but maybe that doesn't matter and i'll just keep on lying to you
trying to prove that the reason i'm here is the reason you choose
too sick to get drunk too smart to ignore
you try to become the lesser son of a bitch than you were to become who you are
it's hard to get the living to endure what the dead have been doing for years
as for the wild in the wild as for the wild a lonesome truce
it has nothing nothing there's nothing you can lose
a couple of kids suck all the fun
beat it to death now everyone's bored
choosy a style stretch it a mile
hold out your hand and everyone's tired
the colours are enticing but the words they mean nothing
the body is sore the bones in my crayons are crackling on fire and fragile
glow in the dark modern art i'd rather get high
as for the wild in the wild as for the wild a lonesome truce
it has nothing nothing there's nothing you can lose
diediediediediediedie (i'm awake)
wake up make some tea and catch the latest from my friends
all the little mice are sick and running around the house
the coffee grinds the glue that binds pulsations to my head
if you get the spider down it's die die die die...
im awake
headless cat is yapping naw she doesn't have a friend
nine to five in silent light the war that lays ahead
when i hit the ground i fall asleep i'm not dead yet
i can hear the angels singing die die die die...
im awake
moldy old dog mask i wear and tools now i'm prepared
i do a few more lines cause that's the rules and i play fair
we gather round the world's drowning now take the wheels and steer
it's all anybody's singing now is die die die die...
i'm awake
drinkin' whiskey w/ a racist fuck
of course i meant every single word i ever said
go back to the basement inside your head
or hold on for good now instead
we're broke and breaking bread
making soul shaking sticks
a war's coming like the warm maiden camping out in your cold bed
hold my hand i can't forget i can't forget
the sweetest odd laughter don't blow all your gas
i'll be there as soon as i can
we're broke and breaking bread
making soul shaking sticks
the war's coming like a warm maiden camping out in your cold bed
flowers laugh at
no matter where you lay your dirty head
your eyes close cloaked and dreaming again
time does all of the talking
i thought you were all my friends
and thanks for being better than me
my salted wounds aren't thankful just yet
there was a place i called home
it was you and me alone
this girl whispers like all light flickers
sunset pictures carry our weight in burden
tell yourself what's right
tell yourself i'm wrong he's got no head on
squinting for the signs or any old reminders of our lives
with words hysterical my tongue blisters
no one knows better when looking for the answers
flowers laugh at (not with)
no matter where you lay your dirty head
your eyes close cloaked and dreaming again
time does all of the talking
i thought you were all my friends
and thanks for being better than me
my salted wounds aren't thankful just yet
there was a place i call home
it was you and me alone
this girl whispers like all light flickers
these sunset pictures carry our weight in burden
tell yourself what's right
tell yourself i'm wrong he's got no head on
squinting for the signs or any old reminders of our lives
with words hysterical my tongue blisters
no one knows better when looking for the answers
for mom and dad while we're all still
laying on my back and dreaming of long lineless horizons
i'm just dumb enough to still enjoy my own company
for mom and dad while we're all still alive i'll always love you
worst always comes to worst when it's true or when it's a good story
for mom and dad while we're all still alive i'll always love you
for mom and dad while we're all still alive i'll always love you
for mom and dad while we're all still still alive i'll always love you
for the sights
oh my god what i have done i used to believe i think when i was young
oh my mom what have i become even if i believe whatever i want
sun is set in sun we're a cappella
ignorance eternal burns all halos
your sweet perfume is smelling up my pillows
he said to his son learn a trade at once he's leaving all his meaning up to no one
blessed to speak in tones had he might have known
beating heart of beating keeps everybody warm
sun is set in sun we're a cappella
ignorance eternal burns all halos
your sweet perfume is smelling up my pillows
for whom the moon
wishing and waiting wishing you were here holding my head
a long a long time ago
somewhere somewhere i know
you only wanna go as far as you can on your own
alone that means there's nobody nobody nobody
a long a long time ago
somewhere somewhere i know
you only wanna go as far as you can on your own
when do i get to romanticize this suicide fantasy that i lie
a long a long time ago
somewhere somewhere i know
you only wanna go as far as you can on your own
jaded and no forgiving him when he left but he really wanted to stay
a long a long time ago
somewhere somewhere i know
a long a long time ago
someone someone i know
you only wanna go as far as you can on your own
for whom the moon/pardon the warden
wishing and waiting wishing you were here holding my head
a long a long time ago
somewhere somewhere i know
you only wanna go as far as you can on your own
alone that means there's nobody nobody nobody
a long a long time ago
somewhere somewhere i know
you only wanna go as far as you can on your own
when do i get to romanticize the suicide fantasy that i lie
a long a long time ago
somewhere somewhere i know
you only wanna go as far you can on your own
hating and no forgiving him when he left but he really wanted to stay
a long a long time ago
someone someone i know
you only wanna go as far as you can on your own

half the time i forget the lies the other times i couldn't care why i pardon the warden
let's don't let love die it's ok if we change cause we don't make timeless the boredom
it's the first step on the coals and the waves crashing upon us all
what is this thing anyways i'm the one you're scared of in the woods tonight
when it always gets a bit sullen in the end well you know where i live
cause crying's a useless motion
and with autumn all the leaves fall and all the birds' nests are exposed i'm just trying not to toss away the centre of my universe
it's the first step on the coals and the waves crashing upon us all
what is this thing anyways i'm the one you're scared of in the woods tonight
go little girl go-go
go go little girls go-go
what you're doing is flying
grow and all the flowers will follow you
grow little homey oak houses
when the end began we met
moan in a lucid tongue
all the little stuffed bears are listening to your song
smiling and pretending that i'm big and strong
but i'm really but i'm really but i'm really not at all
when the end began we met
throw down a fuzzy little hand
and a little mossy foot
and pass down forgotten gowns
throw down your worth
a sense of a little speck of dirt
our eyes colliding is all right
when the end began we met
headphoned and straight-jacketed
i read your note but i didn't believe the reasons you gave me
it's all a joke but that's ok with me cause i'm still laughing
i'm full of ghosts but that doesn't mean i want you to raise me
into the waves at the weigh in i stood and waved
in from the shade into a paler shade away
and on to the grave the grave phasing out of phase
what can i say it's a little lost on lately
take off my socks and smoke cause i can't sleep i'm still extinguishing
that there is no hope but that's ok with me cause i'm still hungry
if you want an entertaining story go listen to some other man going crazy
into the waves at the weigh in i stood and waved
in from the shade into a paler shade away
and on to the grave the grave phasing out of phase
what can i say i'm a little lost on lately
i can be saved
as soon you open up the crows are calling wishing you were dead
i can be saved
they hop along the sides of highways fucking with your head
i can be saved
i believe in believing it all revolves around me and the world is coming to an end
i can be saved
i can be saved
i don't care what everybody says
i can be saved i can be saved
some time wiggles a bit in and out of consciousness how do you forget
i can be saved
all the young boys and ladies with their body image daily but i just pretend
i can be saved
lift my body high and mighty and later on i'll let you tie me to your bed
i can be saved
i can be saved
living in your rat infested nest
i can be saved i can be saved
i can find myself next to anybody
i love making you jealous fucking with your head
i can find myself next to anybody i can't find myself next to anybody
don't worry cause it's already too late
there ain't no time to make a mistake
when no ones around you don't have a face
i can't find myself next to anybody i can find myself next to anybody
don't worry about giving me space
cause you don't know what i want what i want's what i take
well you're holding the straws the only one with a stake
i can find myself next to anybody i can't find myself next to anybody
don't get too proud about your broken heart
you're a soft spot in a hardened spark
when it comes time to get real now forget about it
i can't find myself next to anybody i can find myself next to anybody
i can't find myself next to anybody i can find myself next to anybody
i ching
i am now forgotten lost inside your patterns i don't remember reasons i thought i had for feelings
now we completely agree on everything in blinking your ping is winking
my worst nightmare is your wildest dream
silence now and hold my peace
i haven't changed very much not as much as i thought you tried so hard not to frown that you forgot
to smile and sing and tease your fling and breathe in deeply believe i ching
my worst nightmare is your wildest dream
silence now and hold my peace
i suffer your indignities well
remind me why i'm defining lying
and refining your lines
i'm making up lies
i'm liking silence in the end
if i appear awkward it's because i can read your mind
spent so many years thinking i was here
but i was just drinking in the shower and now i don't care
to play to persuade a ghost to join the game
a tongue to depress your nose to the glass
and born to behave what seems a certain way
a socket in the sand a straw for every strand
and the true sun shines through a terrarium no where has ever been
i'm a man
i think i think therefore i stink
i will die hold my head high
and you noticed i'm a man
and you noticed i'm a man
unto me in time moments all mine
eternal light myself to shine
and you noticed i'm a man
and you noticed i'm a man
and you noticed i'm a man
and you noticed i'm a man
maybe she knows maybe she don't
whatever it is is what it can not
all she can see is all before me
and you noticed i'm a man
and you noticed i'm a man
and you noticed i'm a man
and you noticed i'm a man
impassion me with reason
if we are related holler a sense of pride
but if the sun is jaded everyone must die
you mean a lot of sad things for me
impassion me with reason now
standing in the morning grass
waiting for the sun to rise
doesn't take long it doesn't take too long to it doesn't take long it's all over now and it's all gone
riding rails i make big blind reals it all makes sense somehow but not before i've given up and gone back down
if we are related holler a sense of pride
but if the sun is jaded everyone must die
you mean a lot of sad things for me
impassion me with reason now
into the river
never buried, forever's a lie
always forward and always twisting
our right hands, fuck jams, we're almost there man
hold my other hand we'll pretend we're friends
pick me up by my feet
and place my body into the river
keep me down there so long
i don't even think i remember
we're never enough and always right
open your open door and let everything in
you can't copyright a list of ingredients
silence, a deaf laugh, descent into sense
pick me up by my feet
and place my body into the river
keep me down there so long
i don't even think i remember
pick me up by my feet
and place my body into the river
keep me down there so long
i don't even think i remember
jovial sunshine
hey you stupid fucked up ignorant mother fuckers stop being so goddamn cruel
to all the cops out there just cause you haven't a face for blame doesn't mean you haven't a grave to dive
fifteen minutes of pleasure or pain whatever it takes to get you high
foxes and wolves gonna eat us all the evolution blues gonna change your mood
i drank for seven days and wrote it all on the sunday evening
rock and roll will never die therefore neither will i
be thankful for the food you're about to eat it was killed by the evolution blues
be grateful that all you have to do is sit and think and wallow in your evolution blues
i can't sleep tonight no i can't rest these living blues
i don't think twice don't think right time heals all wounds
i know a guy who's got a dog and he calls it a stupid fool
i know a guy who's got a girl and he calls it hallelujah
when the light in my mind is a dimmer and burns into the shadow of my iris
that's when i better turn out this light and shut down this shrine and find the pieces of my mind
scattered and hidden beneath the clouds
you're my pillow you're my pillow you're my goodbye
hello and when the hope that i wear on my chest starts to mellow
and the mouth that i'm in is choking i'm swallowed
and when my face is pressed up against the glass of the mirror
i just close my eyes and tell myself to wake up but i'm just screaming
because i am sorry for the horror of your sorrow i am sorry for your endless sorrow
when sometimes i'm amazed at what the people before me have caved inside this mountain it's a sign
i am floating i am floating and i am high and i crave nothing but to crave
i am blind to my escape in a context i can relate it's really hard not to hate
when i am burning and i am burning and i am burning and i am burning and i am burning and i am burning and i am burning at the stake
i am burning i am burning from your jovial sunshine
i don't wanna stray my eyes from the way you live and the way you die
to the way you love and the way you lie
open up and let my body die just let it in and let it shine
i am burning i am burning i am burning i am burning i am burning i am burning i am burning
i am burning i am burning i am burning i am burning i am burning i am burning i am burning
i am burning from your jovial sunshine
keep your apologies in your pants
laying around pulling out all of your ass hairs he's a little lost man he can't
he's scratching the frame of meaning something of what to scream why can't we
you're always afraid when i pump it straight to your heart
you're only into hanging out when we know our parts
and though i am wise i have to steal like anyone else
you're properly jaded yeah totally right on the mark
fawning fawning fall all over again he thinks you've got something nobody's seen
with her body in resurgence her mind in despair desire back in demand
she bought a new hair trying to look pretty popcorn bags filled with old come rags
you're always afraid when i pump it straight to your heart
you're only into hanging out when we know our parts
and though i am wise i have to steal like anyone else
you're properly jaded yeah totally right on the mark
diet dying dying diet shedding weight that you gained in happy days
don't got enough stuff playing tricks pulling stunts to make sure that he really really loves me
make sure that he really really loves me
make sure that he really really loves me
make sure that he really really loves me
let it all fall back down
a little something that you can't hide
a mighty exercise in pride
let it all fall back down
let it fall back down
the easy way in which you decide
a simple judgement to define your side
let it all fall back down
let it all fall back down
the way in which you see your size
is only ever defined by mine
let it all fall back down
let it fall back down
let it all fall back down
let it fall back down

she groans a little stretching her legs

and swim in the sea
a little ease a lot of little easy choices
a lot of leeway is gonna come back and haunt us
make the world go away
yesterday yesterday i was the monster
and today today i am the moth
straight line towards the light and hope
to make the world go away
say the things you used to say
make the world go away
beauty's in the eye of the beheader sketching out my bones to play
worshipping the altar that i've ridden far too long forgiving me
of all excuses that i've made
to make the world go away
pour the gasoline all over me we'll see if i withstand the flames
the silence overbears the potential of knowing if we feel the same
the same thing that we overstate
make the world go away
yesterday yesterday i was the monster
and today well today i am the moth
straight line towards the light and hope
to make the world go away
say the things you used to say
and make the world go away
me
there's a hole in the river that the sea has found
and the sun will deliver where i am bound
the soul of the sum our aching sounds
the pull in the better of me
mother earth, father sky, and me
sitting around thinking how how high do bees fly
with an easy friend she's weird as hell
i love her til the end
there's a hole in the river that the sea has found
and the sun will deliver me where i am bound
the soul of the sum our aching sounds
the pull in the better of me
say a prayer every time you come
there's no getting back together for anyone
there's a hole in the river that the sea has found
and the sun will deliver me where i am bound
the soul of the sum our aching sounds
the pull in the better of me
nobody gets what they want from me anymore
the wise are weird to pray to halos halos halos
insight will shine and shade he moans he moans he moans
for now i am today if i may i may i may
the wandering wise world lays alone in somebody elses grave
her soft pulse beats over me
her warm skin overflowing me
stir with a knife ginger tea for life
symbolist symbolist winking and friendly
and honest to goodness my stance is where i'll be
the wise are weird to pray to halos halos halos
insight will shine and shade he moans he moans he moans
for now i am today if i may i may i may
the wandering wise world lays alone in somebody elses grave
alone in somebody elses cave
alone as somebody elses slave
alone i gave all i gave
but her soft pulse beats over me
her warm skin is overflowing me
stir with a knife any tea you like
symbolist symbolist winking and friendly
and honest to goodness my stance is where i'll be
one two three
singing you and me
one two three
singing lee-da-dee-da-dee
we're marked for slaughter i know
so stare as long as you want
your salty tear is still tingling on my tongue
other folks fingers
i have seen i have been to the middle of what i mean
in my dreams and i dreamed of the middle of your bed
where i breathe on my knees with the sheets over our heads
i can see all you can be when you kneel and breathe with me
i am pleased if you pleased tell me what i mean
when i dream of you being wrapped around my head
as you squeeze your bold knees i couldn't hear a thing you said
but i believe in what you mean i can feel the faith in me
the faith you have no one can save ya will burn your shape eternally
and as i sit upon the mountain alone i failed so miserably
when i'm reborn as an animal the fish a tree or anything
even though i am the alien i hope that we aren't enemies
and i screamed and i screamed what does it really mean
as i stare and i stare at your shaven new bald head
but you've been cured so i burned the scraps of your old hair
with my friends my true friends all they do is care
well it's a lie that i tried to give everything that i had
all i can see is just me crushing my own dreams
so you screamed and i screamed now everything is sad
i spy from my little eye something that is dying
the faith you have no one can save ya will burn your shape eternally
and as i sit upon the mountain alone i failed so miserably
when i'm reborn as an animal the fish a tree or anything
even though i am the alien i hope that we aren't enemies
peace time for a war effort
who's a little monkey come here who's my little baby
never ending is the dream nor the bug bites drawing saintly
i wish you could hear me from there
nothing worth note when living can't compare
first impression fades then silence overcame
into another's arms to try and feel the same
pumping at the peddler's dismissive tone making me feel crazy
being a realistic fool i never expected to get home safely
i should have known it was cued up like strung out angels falling
with the whistling of the wind and the parable i'm training
it moves through my ears but out a language i am burning
to keep out fear and loneliness make that which will appear
goodness being a home in the hay and a family for a beacon
kindness the ability to restrain from revealing illusions of pain
i wish i could cut off a piece of this permanent feeling
and give to you a few words that'll make us all go dancing
peace time for a war effort i'll just say
i'll love you til the end in weirdness together ok
poland
a true declaration of your love could never match the eye of your taste
but no one will blame you for this disgrace poland
determined to regret all of your mistakes
that you know you're just making grace saving face poland
what when your illness doesn't end you'll have spun so far the fuck around the race
can't tear these lines from your face poland
to conquer and inhabit the enormity of this place
flood my mind with new ideas and old memories of poland
prayer
lick the palms of my bones
the chewy part of my soul
the darkest tomb is my tome
well cut the vein from this poem
i sat upon i sat upon i sat upon my own dying throne
twisting a while as if the wind is ever listening
and this the sting that there's nothing else more than this thing
as long as i'm living i'll be wishing you a little more
as long as i'm living i'll be wishing another wise lord
the burden of his own birth
i'm tired and my face hurts
gonna turn down the church
you only love on your terms
i'm going to find i'm going to find i'm going find my secret room
twisting a while as if the wind is ever listening
and this the sting that there's nothing else more than this thing
as long as i'm living i'll be wishing you a little more
as long as i'm living i'll be wishing another wise lord
pretty cherry
pretty voices make me sick
i'd rather listen to you eat my shit
no one likes the blues anymore
no one's knocking down my door
ol pretty cherry baby cancer's the core
finally a face we all can afford
everybody knows the kids are old
witches and clowns we're all just mimes and moms in old clothes
the kind of man the kind of man the kind of man that you belong
the kind of man the kind of man the kind of man that you belong
the very beginning of yes
suffer on the outskirts i guess
these are the months where you decide
whether you wanna or whether you wanted to die
a steady low moan a steady low moan a steady low moan oh uh huh
a steady low moan a steady low moan a steady low moan oh uh huh
don't take it from me but nobody's alone
even though i'm always drinking alone
nobody has to make all alone
if you want you can take it to a higher alone
i shoulda come home i shoulda come home i shoulda come home but i'm a fool
i shoulda come home i shoulda come home i shoulda gone home but i'm a fool
i shoulda come home i shoulda come home i shoulda gone home but i'm a fool
i shoulda come home i shoulda come home i shoulda come home but i'm a fool
pretty feathers
everybody sing cause everyone's the same
look i too feel pain and i don't need a gun
seek to find the truth wisdom is a noose
even if it is that don't make it true
come home and stain my bones
your face is always showing
everybody sing cause everyone's the same
look i too feel good and i don't need a shave
everybody drink cause i'm already drunk
i don't need to think cause i don't know what i want
your warm sustaining glow
a heart that's always growing
everybody sing cause everyone's a slave
we're doing what we should and i don't need a name
everybody stink we're living on a farm
misinterpret sheep who sing along with songs
under their torches blow
your pretty feathers are burning
lay your magic on a friend or place it upon a future you really want on a bed to lay her on
im not an enemy or a friend to anyone i'm not staying in love i'm not saying a lot
i'm not staying alive i can't fake a lie i can only try while all else goes on and on
everybody sing cause everyone's awake
look i too feel shame and i don't need anyone
scream while you can
oh shit the light's creeping in
guess i lost my way again
shed a light at dawn or any time i want
broke my fist on enemy spit
grinding away at my wrists
i set a light up on where you're usually hung
oh shit the knife's breaking skin
still not far enough away from sin
all the light is gone the vigil's over go home
oh no i've lost all my friends
pissed too many off from drinking again
real light i've known
what real light i've known
is real light i've known
the real light i've known
real light i've known
real light i've known
smother your man
you hated me
i hated you too
i wished i was dead
and also you instead
you ain't you ain't nothing but a fucking saint
if my love is wrong my love ain't going to pray
you didn't want to smoke you just wanted to stoke the fire and smother it and walk away
even though we barely know one another everything i do starts to smell a little like you
smother your man ladies and gentlemen cause all anybody knows is the meat's going rotten overnight
suicide note
your hands gets sore and your feet will blister you wore a mysterious sign saying you can't afford
six packs are bigger these days and it takes a few more to get the courage to say
you don't know the blues anyways not like i do
screaming, hold my tongue
as a pledge is sworn a body is worn how it works is or is it what it works for at the end of the day
with an altar to pray nothing gets done, always looking for shade
well you'll find your place somewhere underground
pleading, oh my son
let the words state all great people save your life in some way
let your accent thicken when you hit the stage
as for me i'm late as good as gone my seasons are straight and are no longer a weight upon me
breathing, as cold as done
that's me, my spirit animal
shunned doves cry whispers a little heart bleeds sheepishly
take the hand of a stranger god knows that i am so needy
it's the little light i've known shone upon my home
come sunlight come sunbeams
even if i believe that i belong i really know that it's not growing in me
there's poison in the water i'll swallow anything for free
the outcome is the answer everyone still shits downstream
it's the little light i've known shone upon my home
come sunlight come sunbeams
even if i believe that i belong i really know that it's not growing in me
killing what some have to say
preachy teacher of shame
everyone else is insane
you'll always find someone to blame
it's the little light i've known shone upon my home
come sunlight come sunbeams
even if i believe that i belong i really know that it's not growing in me
things
things i've had and i've things lost
things i've borrowed have their cost
to live and breathe and sweat can't we
a silent over simplified solid oath to reason why
your eyes are what's doing you in
and in the style by which you regret
but if only you'd smile instead
no one would know that you're really upset
things i've loved and things i hate
things i've learned to appreciate
like science and tea and babies can't we
the figures don't make sense to me
the only truth is spiralling away from me
your eyes are what's doing you in
and in the style by which you regret
but if only you'd smile instead
no one would know that you're really upset
utopic
kicking down the high road
the high road is a lonesome road
free your horse and walk em home
i like watching paint dry
i like highs like tie-dye
you opened up my made up mind
i tried to fight i tried to forget it
shaking the hour glass stand
i tried to regret but her palm was embedded
into the back of my hand
in her palm i am a cat
as allergenic as i can get
in my cat nip scented bad breath
no tickling toes it makes her scream
but as she laughs i feel really pleased
i find blushing between the seams
we're nested in nector under snow for the winter
as i drown down the river in flames
when our garden is buried drop your blood in the water
and the light of the moon shows the way
we lay under sheets so neat
as we try and fall asleep
but i can't fake sick so easily
so please don't leave me in my dreams
in my insecurities
in my needy shame on me
in the sun in our good signs
a single path between the lies
and we're dancing in the mud road
we're taking off all our clothes
and we're dancing in the mud road
i can feel it between my toes
we're kicking down the high road
the high road is a lonesome road
free your horse and walk her home
who is holier
you want any hope
a world eternal
who is older
who is holier
shaman woman likes samantabhadra man
these madness men can't look into eyes of woman
the saddest sadist sadness is the state of sad it's sad i'm sad
good times
having you on my mind
who can hold the most
who is holier
shaman woman likes samantabhadra man
these madness men can't look into eyes of woman
the saddest sadist status is the state of sad it's sad i'm sad
you may know
if you say so
but me unknown
woah is woah
you want any hope
a world eternal
who is older
who is holier
without and beyond
you can't get it wrong no matter how long you come from
my belly warm wine no belly bottom to my warm wine
hit bottom too many times i calloused anything that mattered to be mine
your hate is yours and it shines like a diamond but stings like despair
strutting along to whatever new song ignore the old blues and pretty girls rules
i can't get a light though no one will even look me in the eye
oh i've owed tomorrow
and oh i've just ignored it all
and oh i've let it sorrow
my baby is not coming home
can't get it wrong no matter how strong my reason is long
i hadn't a dream until you woke me up and off and out and on
without and beyond the feeling's not wrong but a fantasy gone wrong
sold a lie to believe a lie and i fought a while with no one
always moments behind the shadows faking at night there's nothing find in whatever your light
it's contextualized and broken bitten raw bitter black mold
oh i've owed tomorrow
and oh i've just ignored it all
and oh i've let it sorrow
my baby not coming home
words without music
i stole a part of you
i store it inside of me
i only go there sometimes
any time i need you to be there with me
this moment has reached its peak i'm born and old
time just whispers and fades i die alone it's what i own
whatever was clear whatever i feared i have nothing to behold
silence will bring my heart to ring and so i will sing along
stole a part of you
i store it inside of me
i only go there sometimes
any time i need you to be there with me
this idea i wove into the old man i've grown my eyelids are sewn
subdued he said will i understand or have i fallen to the ground instead
live in a painting hold on to old feelings even though they're dead
sing for a feeding words without meaning are the sores from the skin that i shed
stole a part of you
i store it inside of me
i only go there sometimes
any time i need you to be there with me
goodbye my mom i'm leaving this autumn
please don't wave to me i'm not waiting for you to call me home
the coward i am crowned me a man just with you i use my tone
pockets of sand fall through my hand as i wait here for you on my throne
my fate is fleeting
the water is breaking
the leaves have all fallen
my body is rotting to the bone
stole a part of you
i store it inside of me
i only go there sometimes
any time i need you to be there with me
you ain't gonna take me
you ain't gonna take me you ain't gonna take me alone
and i sold it all cause it doesn't mean a thing
i ain't gonna fake it i ain't gonna fake it
the cross is a loss and christ hangs like a dirty old stain
you ain't gonna take me you ain't gonna take me alone
i sold it all cause it doesn't mean a thing
i ain't gonna fake it i ain't gonna fake it
the cross is a loss and christ hangs like a dirty old stain
...
are we well
i got no time to waste so i'll just let it all out
i wish ya hell
i really can't complain cause i know what it's all about
don't think we can't tell
when we see the sun which way we wanna run
and something else
never am i over i am never really done
go fuck yourself
the anger has finally splintered to the cartridge and the gun
i fuck myself
never was an answer that i couldn't spray with come
i love myself
nothing else to imagine but transcending everyone
are we well
