- Track Name: Tearin' Up the Town
-
Your eyes glittered while my eyes shimmered
And we were one of a kind
Grinning ear to ear as we tore up the town like sheets of paper
I wish you were here right now
So we could show this town what we're about
We would show no regrets as they chased our silhouettes
Through lamp-lit streets
Looking up the block as we walked down it
Checking out all the sights to be seen
Smoking packs of cigs, downing dollar beers
Man it's one hell of a night - Track Name: Waiting
-
You ain't gotta speak no evil
You ain't gotta hear no sin
Cause at the end of the day child
You gonna see the world we living in
Your eyes shine radiant as the New York skyline
Dreams so clear, full of hope so cloudy
We will climb to the highest peaks of aspiration
No we won't speak, we won't make a sound
We are people made of grass with fresh mowed souls.
I dream of endless hallways lined with open doors
I wake up to dirty floors and blinding lightbulbs
I walk through streets lined with trees to the tune of songbirds singing - Track Name: Yy
-
Have you ever heard of a man named James?
He lived in a house on the ocean
Smack dab in the middle of the vast pacific
It was a very lonely existence
Every morning he'd wake up and look out the window
He saw the same damn old thing
One day he hopped to the water
With weights instead of shoes
And he sank down into the blue
When suddenly singularities of color emerged and grew
I'm talking about lime greens, sunflower yellows, navy blues
And deep dark heavy set maroons
And all those colors merged to form white until there was no water
And he fell about a mile or two
Slammed into the sand and when he looked up there was his house staring him down
He slipped in and everything was bubbling, it was popping
Everything was new - Track Name: Simple Words, SImple Sounds
-
Yeah I'll bet you think you know me
But baby I got some bad news to tell
You may think you know me
But you don't know me so well
Yeah, you think I had my days of wine and roses
But I ain't had any of these
Those days of wine and roses you speak so fondly about
Were more like beer and weeds
These are simple words, these are simple sounds
Baby these make the world go round
So take your days of wine and roses and get away from me
My head is spinning, I'm on the floor
Baby I don't want to hear it no more
Yeah I know I've got someone new
But that ain't got nothing to do with you - Track Name: Alleyways
-
Broken leaves that fill the streets were once part of the trees that look so alone
We will crush them under our feet like the glass that fills our alleyways
My soul feels like France in the summer time
Somewhere I ain't been
I'll walk down these alleyways
Stomp these petrified memories
It's just all the same to you but it ain't all the same to me
Please forgive I can't distinguish you from the bridge between us
Take a shot and try to forget that you and I are one with death
I still feel your weight flowing through my limbs
It sets my skin to simmering
I'll softly trace the bags under your eyes
With a kiss, a whisper, a goodbye
These backstreet boulevards got no regard for me
I hoped that they were veins but it seems that they're arteries
Well I'll come to you if you don't come to me
I got truth to finds with these bloody feet
When I die I know where I will lay
Under the neon lights in these dark alleyways - Track Name: Innocent
-
Yeah yeah yeah well I've heard it all before
You're telling me you love me while you're drunk on the floor
You know it really does mean so much more
When you're telling me you love me and you're drunk on the floor
Yeah yeah yeah well you know I love you too
But I don't need a 32 rack to tell you that
My lord how I wish your love were true
When you didn't have 151 in you
To tell you the truth about it
I came here wondering if
You could give me a little kiss
I swear it was innocent
You should see the look on your face
You look so angry with me
You sit there and eat your pancakes
I swear it was innocent - Track Name: Starry Eyed Child
-
Strolling down King Ave
Money in my pocket and nothing to do
Real life is such a drag
All these days keep picking at your poise
You spend your days dreaming and your nights drinking well
Tell me if they aren't the same
You got electricity flowing through that shot of whiskey
You starry eyed child
Waking up at 6am
Alarm clock screaming as you mutter not again
Sipping your coffee and chomping on stale food from the shelf marked "manager discount"
Tell me how you aren't insane
Gonna open up a beer and a bottle of whiskey
Drown my fears till I think you miss me
But it ain't gonna do no good
Thinking about the thoughts you would have said if you could
Can't you tell I'm not insane? - Track Name: Knives
-
The walls are caving in inch by inch, year by year
As I fall asleep I see them breath and hear them weep
I've been here for so long that the ticking of the clock is an empty lullaby
saying "son, you got all the time you need"
This place has some dense atmosphere
Step by step I'm walking through darkness to get closer
I feel your breath your silhouette
Our eyes were closed
We were wide awake
Hearts fluttering
In perfect syncopation
You are my beam of light in this grey and weary place
I need you to guide me through all the knives and prying eyes
The snow must have been magnetic
It kept us close as humans get
We felt our souls embrace
And we skipped past the meaningless talk of it - Track Name: Selfish Bastards
-
Lets sit around the fire
Rejoice on days to come
For all may trie
But we are one
And all exists for us
We selfish bastards all for one
Sing to the trees
Let the water hit the ground
Passersby will hear the cry
And respond in kind
Fill the Earth's air with our music
And before long we'll be at her end and back again - Track Name: Widdly Scuds
-
Swimming through the fog
Keeping both hands in front of me
Waiting for the wall
I can feel it getting close
Screaming through a sheet of lead
Broken word were understood
Then placed in the left hand of a man with an empty pen in the right
But look who's got what they want
Look who's got what they need
You will see first hand how we will overcome
So let's keep on pushing keep on pulling
Keep on heaving keep on hoeing
The sun and the moon were both out that day
Now tell me which is heaven and hell
Cold and alone or surrounded in flames
Well that's my kind of company
We will set the moon aflame
Watch it as it burns down
We are your cold hearted sons - Track Name: Happy Song
-
Fill me up with all your sorrow
All your pain and all your misery
Is this what you've been in search of
Something to bring all your dark to light
Rest your head on my soft shoulder
Pillow of such sweet philosophy
Can you be afraid of death
When it could be like sleeping in these arms
When you want what's lost what you want is a paradox
When whats lost is found you know it's never the same
We could spend all night just waiting for the sun to rise
Or we could take matters into our hands
Grab a couple of matches and old gas cans
Cause we built this house together and we're gonna watch it burn alone
Burn it to the ground.
