Large fingers pushing paint...
You're God and you got big hands. Colors blend... the challenges you give, man. Seek my part, devote myself. My small self like a book amongst the many on a shelf. Sometimes I know, sometimes I rise. Sometimes I fall, sometimes I don't. Sometimes I cringe, sometimes I live. Sometimes I walk, sometimes I kneel. Sometimes I speak of nothing at all. Sometimes I reach to myself, dear God. |

Lives opened and trashed,
Look, Ma, watch me crash, No time to question. Why'd nothing last? Grasp and hold on, We're dying fast. Soon be over and I will relent. Let the ocean swell, dissolve 'way my past. Three days and maybe longer, Won't even know I've left. Under your tongue, I'm like a tab, I will give you what you're not supposed to have. Under my breath, I swear by sin, for better or worse, A best we began. Let the sun climb, oh, burn 'way my mask. Three days and maybe longer. Shed my skin at last... shed... shed. Let the sun shine, burn 'way my mask. Three days and maybe longer, Won't ever find me here. Let the ocean dissolve 'way my past. Four days and not much longer... Let my spirit pass... This is, this is... This is, this is... This is, this is... This is, this is... my last exit. |

All in all, it's no one's fault
excuses turn to carbon walls Blame it all on chemical intercourse The swallowed seeds of arrogance Breeding in the thoughts of ten- Thousand fools who fight irrelevance The full moon is dead skin The one down here is wearing thin So set up the ten pins As the human tide rolls in Like a ball that's spinning Bombs dropping down Overhead, underground It's instilled to wanna live Bombs, dropping down Please forgive our hometown In our insignificance "Turn the jukebox up," he said, Dancing in irreverance "Play C3, let the song protest." The plates begin to shift Perfect lefts come rolling in I was alone and far away When I heard the band start playing On the lip, late take off Bombs dropping down Overhead, underground It's instilled to wanna live Bombs, dropping down Please forgive our hometown In our insignificance Feel like resonance of distance In the blood, the iron lies It's instilled to wanna live Bombs, dropping down Please forgive our hometown In our insignificance In our insignificance |

Don't feel like home
He's a little out And all these words alone Is nothing like your poem Putting in, inputting in Don't feel like methadone A scratching voice all alone It's nothing like your baritone It's nothing as it seems The little that he needs, it's home The little that he sees Is nothing he can seize, it's home One uninviting chromosome A blanket like the ozone It's nothing as it seems All that he needs is home The little that he frees Is nothing he believes Saving it for a sunny day Something maybe, two tone Anything of his own A chip off the corner stone Who's kidding? Rainy day A one way ticket headstone An occupation's overthrown A whisper through a megaphone It's nothing as it seems The little that he needs, it's home The little that he sees Is nothing he concedes, it's home And all that he frees A little bittersweet, it's home It's nothing as it seems The little that he sees, it's home |

Light green to green, dark green, brown
Every life is falling down Brown to black, it's coming back Dies to be part of the ground Seed to seedling, root to stem Eyes, no eyes, there's no difference Every life is looking in Swallowing seeds on the deathbed Dig a hole in the garden Everyone is practicing But this world's an accident I was the fool because I thought I thought the world Turns out the world thought me It's all the other way around We're upside down Dad, he's gone up in flames But this ain't no movie This ain't no book you can close When the big lie hits your eye Everyone is practicing Our world's an accident I was the fool because I thought I thought the world Turns out the world thought me It's all the other way 'round We're upside down Down, down, down Let the fluency set it down Down Let the fluency set it down There's an upside of down The moon is rolling 'round our world The moon is rolling 'round our world Our world Our world |

The waiting drove me mad
You're finally here and I'm a mess I take your entrance back Can't let you roam inside my head I don't want to take what you can give I would rather starve than eat your bread I would rather run but I can't walk Guess I'll lie alone just like before I'll take the firmest path Oh, and I must refuse your test Push me and I will resist This behavior's not unique I don't want to hear from those who know They can buy, but can't put on my clothes I don't want to limp for them to walk Never would have known of me before I don't want to be held in your debt I'll pay it off in blood, let I be wed I'm already cut up and half-dead I'll end up alone like I began Everything has chains Absolutely nothing's changed Take my hand, not my picture, spilled my tincture... I don't want to take what you can give I would rather starve than eat your breast All the things that others want for me Can't buy what I want because it's free Can't buy what I want because it's free Can't be what you want because I'm... Ain't supposed to be just one Oh, to live and die, let it be done I figure I'll be damned, all alone like I began It's your move now I thought you were a friend But I guess I... I guess I hate you... |

The selfish, they're all standing in line
Faithing and hoping to buy themselves time Me, I figure as each breath goes by I only own my mind The north is to south what the clock is to time There's east and there's west and there's everywhere life I know I was born and I know that I'll die The in-between is mine I am mine And the feeling, it gets left behind All the innocence lost at one time Significant behind the eyes There's no need to hide We're safe tonight The ocean is full 'cause everyone's crying The full moon is looking for friends at high tide The sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow's denied I only know my mind I am mine And the meaning, it gets left behind All the innocence lost at one time Significant behind the eyes There's no need to hide We're safe tonight, whoa And the feelings that get left behind All the innocence broken with lies Significance between the lines We may need to hide And the meanings that get left behind All the innocence lost at one time We're all different behind the eyes There's no need to hide |

Is this just another day?
This God forgotten place First comes love, then comes pain Let the games begin Questions rise and answers fall Insurmountable Love boat captain Take the reigns and steer us towards the clear, here It's already been sung, but it can't be said enough Is this just another phase Of earthquakes making waves? Trying to shake the cancer off Aah, stupid human beings Once you hold the hand of love It's all surmountable Hold me and make it the truth That when all is lost, there'll be you 'Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing And there's just one word I still believe And it's love It's an art to live with pain Mix the light into gray Lost nine friends we'll never know Two years ago today And if our lives became too long Would it add to our regret? And the young, they can lose hope 'Cause they can't see beyond today The wisdom that the old can't give away, hey Constant recall Sometimes life don't leave you alone Hold me and make it the truth That when all is lost, there will be you 'Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing And there's just one word that I still believe And it's love, love, love, love, love Love boat captain take the reigns Steer us towards the clear I know it's already been sung Can't be said enough Love is all you need All you need is love, love, love |

Seen it happen to a couple of friends.
See it happen and the message it sends. Taking off for what's an obvious fall. Just to see what all the fuss is about. It's not your way. Not your way. It's not your way. Another habit says it's in love with you. Another habit says it's love's overdue. Another habit like an unwanted friend. I'm so happy with my righteous self. It's not your way. Not your way. It's not your way. Never thought you'd habit. Never thought you'd habit. Never thought you'd habit. I never thought you'd... never thought you'd... Never thought you'd habit.

I've used hammers made out of wood
I have played games with pieces and rules I've deciphered tricks at the bar But now you're gone I haven't figured out why I've come up with riddles and jokes about war I figured out numbers and what they're for I've understood feelings and I've understood words But how could you be taken away? And wherever you've gone and wherever we might go It don't seem fair, today just disappeared Your light's reflected now, reflected from afar We were but stones, your light made us stars With heavy breath, awakened regrets Back pages and days alone that could have been spent Together, but we were miles apart Every inch between us becomes light years now No time to be void or save up on life Oh, you got to spend it all And wherever you've gone and wherever we might go It don't seem fair, you seemed to like it here Your light's reflected now, reflected from afar We were but stones, your light made us stars And wherever you've gone and wherever we might go It don't seem fair, today just disappeared Your light's reflected now, reflected from afar We were but stones, your light made us stars |

Know a man
His face seems pulled and tense Like he's riding on a motorbike In the strongest winds So I approach with tact Suggest that he should relax But he's always moving Much too fast Said he'll see me on the flip side On this trip he's taking for a ride He's been taking too much on There he goes with his perfectly unkempt clothes There he goes... He's yet to come back But I've seen his picture It doesn't look the same Up on the rack We go way back I wonder about his insides It's like his thoughts are too big for his size He's been taken Where I don't know Off he goes with his perfectly unkempt clothes There he goes And now I rub my eyes For he has returned Seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned For he still smiles And he's still strong Nothing's changed but the surrounding bullshit That has grown And now he's home And we're laughing like we always did My same old Same old friend Until a quarter-to-ten I saw the strain creep in He seems distracted And I know just what is going to happen then Before his first step He is off again |

Floating out on the sea Far from lights of a city The elements, they speak to me Whispering that life Existed long before greed Balancing the world On its knee Don't see some men as 1/2 empty See them 1/2 full of shit Thinking that we're all but slaves There ain't gonna be No middle anymore It's been said before The haves be having more Yet still bored Won't someone save? Won't someone save the world? Woah, woah Woah, woah Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh |

I seem to recognize your face
Haunting, familiar, yet I can't seem to place it Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name Lifetimes are catching up with me All these changes taking place I wish I'd seen the place, but no one's ever taken me Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away I swear I recognize your breath Memories like fingerprints are slowly raising Me you wouldn't recall, for I'm not my former It's hard when you're stuck upon the shelf I changed by not changing at all, small town predicts my fate Perhaps that's what no one wants to see I just wanna scream hello My god, it's been so long, never dreamed you'd return But now here you are, and here I am Hearts and thoughts, they fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade |

Sorry is the fool who trades his soul for a Corvette
Thinks he'll get the girl he'll only get the mechanic What's missing? He's living a day he'll soon forget That's one more time around, the sun is going down The moon is out but he's drunk and shouting Putting people down, he's pissing He's living a day he'll soon forget Counts his money every morning The only thing that keeps him horny Locked in a giant house that's alarming The townsfolk they all laugh Sorry is the fool who trades his love for high rise rent Seem the more you make equals the loneliness you get And it's fitting He's barely living a day he'll soon forget That's one more time around and there is not a sound He's lying dead clutching Benjamins Never put the money down, he's stiffening We're all whistling a man we'll soon forget |
