Clean
i'd like to hide away somewhere without light somewhere
dark and warm
no given chance to lose without a care in my head
i could sleep right through
i gave it all away today those empty stares
won't be from me there's not
much to look forward to just as long as i can't
remember took a shower today
couldn't feel the water hit my face pinched the
skin on my arm and i couldn't
feel pain i guess my wish came true so now may
i not lose
back
Slumbering
day dreams on the cieling ridges in my memories
resting for the
evening to warm to freeze give me a reason why
should i doubt something that
comes so easy it's better than being down and
out free from the grind and
breathing in it's so easy to drift away
back
Viewpoint
this is sitting this is watching this is thinking
fog is changing
what i've seen where's the bay the lights below
shine through i can feel the
earth turn sit back while the moon burns i'll
be there soon wonder how it
will be
back
Someone's got
to lose
i feel it coming winding into clutch position talking
myself up for the transition second thoughts are
hanging over my head you
know i've heard a lot of stories if they're not
true then why am i still
worrying i don't know which way i'm being led
well someone's got to lose am
i lying if i wonder will i walk i wonder should
i even bother yeah someone's
got to lose i can feel it coming in
back
Lack of reason
tell me i'm allright i feel so small did i make
the right
mistake i feel so small i hate feeling ashamed
you shouldn't feel this way
who is condescending you shouldn't feel the same
all pumped up and ready to
go i feel so small will i make the right mistake
i feel so small i hate
feeling helpless who wouldn't reason you shouldn't
feel ashamed
back
Tell me a story
so now i know you have to say what's on your little
mind and
i always have to hear from someone else all your
stupid lies come on now and
look at me you'll see i'm okay it's story time
now time for you to show your
shallow exhistance it doesn't add up too much
your junior insecurity now i
see that you're afraid of me
back
Sky flying by
nothing has divided you it's growing older faster
than it should
pieces of me outside your door so you're not at
home i'd like to not wonder
where you are blurry eyed my feet leave the ground
see that sky flying by see
the streetlights spin and blend proving it's not
a faster scar so i'll just
leave it there you could maybe pick it up only
you could see what it was and
i'll just lay it to rest i'll get up and leave
knowing that you'll see it
lying there
back
Cakewalk
i'm tied up in knots nothing is coming undone hand
me my crutches
because you know i can not run i've locked all
the windows and i'm bolting
the door surprised by every sunrise i never seem
to come clean when i think
of what i could be wasting i get a little weak
my bed is floating
back
Great...
you reel me in from a real long leash pulling me
in just to tell me
a speach i don't like the looks of that do you
like the looks of that i gave
it all i had you pull my head all over this town
i get the feeling that i'm
about to drown visions of you are just like me
maybe that's the way you want
me to be maybe we are too much alike or maybe
not enough but some good times
we've had
back
Simple solution
circles around you they're like walls you're safely
grounded
in the center you don't need to look outside you
couldn't if you tried time
goes by lie after lie the walls are growing larger
you're getting smaller
isolated it's too comfortable to leave in your
circle spinning round and
round you've locked yourself inside you keep spinning
round and round turn
yourself inside out
back
Milkbone
cracking knuckles and tapping feet something isn't
quite complete
ignoring my company i'm hoping they'll take the
hint and leave that magazine
cover that caught my eye is so inviting i think
it's time the bathroom floor
is cold but the water is hot it burns my skin
as i get in but i like that a
lot i like that a lot lay back and play
back
For sale
is there a need for advertising me i might be a
pigeon but i'm whole
i've got this crazy notion i can get there for
free this one's for sale
everybody's criticizing but i don't get much advice
i guess that's what i get
for trying this one's for sale so what am i supposed
to do this one's for you
back
Whole
you're sitting in your hole again down sad and
alone again you see
something that makes you feel complete then it's
gone and you're down again
you're playing on the edge again don't push or
you might fall you're playing
on the edge again now you might fall
back
Ed says
i'm as doomed as doomed can be you know now that's
a pain that's
going to linger oh give me a break this is my
luckiest of lucky days i'm
going completely mental i must say this is like
a joke i must say oh that's
a pain that's going to linger
back

back
Where d'ya go
seems like the further i get from here things come
on time
seems like the closer i get to home i'm way out
of time i think about where
to go it's always i don't know every time i think
there is someone no one has
shown where d'ya go i heard a voice in the dark
and i knew it was you
