from Me, Myself & Irene (미 마이셀프 앤드 아이린) by Lee Scott [omnibus, ost] (2000)
I never seen you looking so bad my funky one You tell me that your superfine mind has come undone : Any major dude with half a heart surely will tell you my friend Any minor world that breaks apart falls together again When the demon is at your door In the morning it won't be there no more Any major dude will tell you Have you ever seen a squonk's tears? Well, look at mine The people on the street have all seen better times I can tell you all I know, the where to go, the what to do You can try to run but you can't hide from what's inside of you |

You always wanted more time,
To do what you always wanted to do Now you got it And I, I must be high, To say goodbye Bye bye bye You never said you needed this And you're pissed that you missed the very last kiss, From my lips And I, I must be high, To say goodbye Bye bye bye And you never looked in my eyes, Long enough to find any peace of mind But now you got it And I, I must be high, To let you say goodbye Bye bye bye |

With the light from the t.v. running parallel to you. But there is no sunken treasure, rumored to be. Wrapped inside my ribs in a sea black with ink. I am so out of tune with you, I am so our of tune with you. If I had a mountain, I'd try to fold it over. If I had a boat (or bone), you know I'd probably roll over. And I leave it on the shore, I'd leave it for somebody. Surely there's somebody who needs it more than me. I am so out of tune with you, I am so our of tune with you. All the leaves will burn and autumn fires then return. All the fires we burn, all will return. Music is my savior, and I was maimed by rock and roll. I was maimed by rock and roll. I was tamed by rock and roll. I got my name from rock and roll |

Well there's a blister on his brain, That's driving him insane, Cause all good things they gotta go. Well there's a child on the way, It could be any day, But how this life will change him, that we don't know. Well there's a child on the way, One day, he's gonna say, "Ain't you my dad?"

Well, I know I made mistakes, I'm passing then all on. But I hope he gets some before there gone, all right. Yeah, that's it.

You can rely on me, honey You can combine anything you want I'll be around You were right about the stars Each one is a setting sun Tall buildings shake Voices escape singing sad sad songs tuned to chords Strung down your cheeks Bitter melodies turning your orbit around Don't cry You can rely on me honey You can come by any time you want I'll be around You were right about the stars Each one is a setting sun Tall buildings shake Voices escape singing sad sad songs tuned to chords Strung down your cheeks Bitter melodies turning your orbit around Voices whine Skyscrapers are scraping together Your voice is smoking Last cigarettes are all you can get Turning your orbit around Our love Out of Our love is all we have Our love Our love is all of God's money Every one is a burning sun Tall buildings shake Voices escape singing sad sad songs tuned to chords Strung down your cheeks Bitter melodies turning your orbit around Voices whine Skyscrapers are scraping together Your voice is smoking Last cigarettes are all you can get Turning your orbit around Last cigarettes are all you can get Turning your orbit around Last cigarettes are all you can get Turning your orbit around |

The cash machine is blue and green
For a hundred in twenties and a small service fee I could spend three dollars and sixty-three cents On Diet Coca-Cola and unlit cigarettes I wonder why we listen to poets when nobody gives a fuck How hot and sorrowful, this machine begs for luck All my lies are always wishes I know I would die if I could come back new I want a good life with a nose for things the fresh wind and bright sky to enjoy my suffering A hole without a key if I break my tongue Oh, speaking of tomorrow, how will it ever come? All my lies are always wishes I know I would die if I could come back new I'm down on my hands and knees every time a doorbell rings I shake like a toothache when I hear myself sing All my lies are only wishes I know I would die if I could come back new I would like to salute the ashes of American flags And all the fallen leaves filling up shopping bags |

I sincerely miss those heavy metal bands
I used to go see on the landing in the summer She fell in love with the drummer She fell in love with the drummer She fell in love Shiny, shiny pants and bleach-blond hair A double kick drum by the river in the summer She fell in love with the drummer Another and another She fell in love I miss the innocence I've known Playing KISS covers, beautiful and stoned Unlock my body and move myself to dance Moving warm liquid, flowing blowing glass Classical music blasting masks the ringing in my ears I sincerely miss those heavy metal bands I used to go see on the landing in the summer She fell in love with the drummer She fell in love with another She fell in love I miss the innocence I've known Playing KISS covers, beautiful and stoned I miss the innocence I've known Playing KISS covers, beautiful and stoned Playing KISS covers, beautiful and stoned Playing KISS covers, beautiful and stoned |

It's my father's voice dreaming of
Sailors sailing off in the morning for the air-conditioned rooms at the top of the stairs His jaw's been broken his bandage is wrapped too tight his fangs have been pulled and i really want to see you tonight There's Bourbon on the breath of the singer you love so much He takes all his words from the books that you don't read anyway His jaw's been broken his bandage is wrapped too tight My fangs have been pulled and I really want to see you tonight Someone ties a bow in my backyard to show me love My voice is climbing walls smoking and i want love My jaw's been broken My heart is wrapped in ice My fangs have been pulled and i really want to see you tonight And it makes no difference to me how they cried all over overseas It's hot in the poor places tonight I'm not going outside They cried all over overseas It makes no difference to me It's hot in the poor places tonight I'm not going outside |

And not be so indifferent to the look in your eyes When I've always been distant and I've always told lies for love I'm bound by these choices so hard to make I'm bound by the feeling so easy to fake None of this is real enough to take me from you Oh I've got reservations about so many things but not about you I know this isn't what you were wanting me to say How can I get closer and be further away From the truth that proves it's beautiful to lie I've got reservations about so many things but not about you I've reservations about so many things but not about you not about you not about you not about you not about you |

You started to cry I said, maybe if I leave, you'll want me To come back home Or maybe all you mean, is leave me alone At least that's what you said You're irresistible when you get mad Isn't it sad, I'm immune I thought it was cute For you to kiss My purple black eye Even though I caught it from you I still think we're serious At least that's what you said |

Spiders are singing in the salty breeze
Spiders are filling out tax returns Spinning out webs of deductions and melodies On a private beach in Michigan Why can't they wish their kisses good Why do they miss when their kisses should Fly like winging birds fighting for the keys On a private beach in Michigan This recent rash of kidsmoke All these telescopic poems It's good to be alone Why can't they say what they want Why can't they just say what they mean Come clean, listen and talk Hello private callers, IDs blocked The sun will rise, we'll climb into cars The future has a valley and a shortcut around Who will wear the crown of drowning award Hold a private light on a Michigan shore You fool me with a kiss of kidsmoke From a microscopic home It's good to be alone I'll be in my bed You can be the stone That raises from the dead And carries us all home There's no blood on my hands I just do as I am told |

There's a random painted highway
And a muzzle of bees My sleeves have come unstitched From climbing your tree And dogs laugh, some say they're barking I don't think they're mean Some people get so frightened Of the fences in between And the sun gets passed from tree to tree Silently, and back to me With the breeze blown through Pushed up against the sea Finally back to me I'm assuming you got my message On your machine I'm assuming you love me And you know what that means Sun gets passed, sea to sea Silently, and back to me With the breeze blown through Pushed up above the leaves With the breeze blown through My head upon your knee Half of it's you, half is me Half of it's you, half is me |

His goal in life was to be an echo
Riding alone, town after town, toll after toll A fixed bayonet through the great southwest to forget her She appears in his dreams But in his car and in his arms A dream can mean anything A cheap sunset on a television set can upset her But he never could Remember to remember me Standing still in your past Floating fast like a hummingbird His goal in life was to be an echo The type of sound that floats around and then back down Like a feather But in the deep chrome canyons of the loudest Manhattans No one could hear him Or anything So he slept on a mountain In a sleeping bag underneath the stars He would lie awake and count them And the gray fountain spray of the great Milky Way Would never let him Die alone Remember to remember me Standing still in your past Floating fast like a hummingbird Remember to remember me Standing still in your past Floating fast like a hummingbird A hummingbird A hummingbird |

How to fight loneliness
Smile all the time Shine your teeth to meaningless And sharpen them with lies 항상 웃으면서 아무 의미없는 것들에게 네 이를 환하게 드러내렴 그리곤 거짓말로 그것들을 날렵하게 갈아야지 And whatever is going down Will you follow around That's how you fight loneliness 그리고 추락해가는 건 무엇이든 뒤따라 갈테지 넌 그게 네가 외로움과 싸우는 방법 You laugh at every joke Drag your blanket blindly Fill your heart with smoke 넌 모든 농담에 웃음을 터트리고 담요를 머리끝까지 끌어올려야지 가슴을 담배 연기로 가득 채우고 And the first thing that you want Will be the last thing you'll ever need That's how you fight it 그리고 나서 처음 네가 바라는 건 네가 필요로 할 마지막 것이 되겠지 Just smile all the time Just smile all the time Just smile all the time Just smile all the time 그저 항상 웃으렴 그저 웃고, 웃고, 또 웃으렴 그게 네가 외로움과 싸우는 방법이란다 |

I dreamed about killing you again last night
And it felt alright to me Dying on the banks of Embarcadero skies I sat and watched you bleed Buried you alive in a fireworks display Raining down on me You cold, hot blood ran away from me To the sea I painted my name on the back of a leaf And I watched it float away The hope I had in a notebook full of white, dry pages Was all I tried to save But the wind blew me back via Chicago In the middle of the night And all without fight At the crush of veils and starlight I know I'll make it back One of these days and turn on your TV To watch a man with a face like mine Being chased down a busy street When he gets caught, I wont get up And I wont go to sleep I'm coming home, I'm coming home Via Chicago Where the cups are cracked and hooked Above the sink They make me think Crumbling ladder tears don't fall They shine down your shoulders And crawling is screw faster lash I blow it with kisses I rest my head on a pillowy star And a cracked door moon That says I havent gone too far I'm coming home I'm coming home Via Chicago Searching for a home Searching for a home Searching for a home Via Chicago I'm coming home I'm coming home |

To every word you said Oh, what have I been missing Wishing, wishing that you were dead I didn't mean to be so disturbing So far from home Oh, what have I been learning By being all alone Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing (Is gonna) Just tears you apart Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing (Is gonna) Just tears you apart When, when we were younger Sleep while I'm awake I was trying to keep the door locked I realize that's a mistake Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Is gonna tear you apart Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Is gonna tear you apart Every little thing that you do Seems so much better than I could do Oh, I shouldve been listening To every word you said Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Is gonna tear you apart Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Is gonna tear you apart (it's gonna) Every little thing (it's gonna) Every little thing (it's gonna) Every little thing (it's gonna) Is gonna tear you apart Every little thing (it's gonna) Every little thing (it's gonna) Every little thing (it's gonna) Is gonna tear you apart It's gonna It's gonna It's gonna tear you apart It's gonna It's gonna It's gonna tear you apart |

Go back to sleep now
My darlin And I'll keep all the bad dreams away Breathe now, think sweet things And I'll think of all the right words to say Because we made you My darlin With the love in each of our hearts We were a family, my darlin Right from the start Grow up now My darlin Please don't you grow up too fast And be sure, darlin To make all the good times last Because we made you My darlin With the love in each of our hearts We were a family, my darlin Right from the start |

When you wake up
Feeling old At this piano filled with souls Some strange purse Stuffed nervous with gold Can you be where you want to be? Walk down any street You can find Look at any clock telling time Sing some strange verse From some strange song of vines And you'll be where you want to be I know I can't sing Until she brings the song to life And I blend with kings I'd never change a thing Who knows anything I don't know There are so many things I must leave alone Some strange person is calling you their home Can you be where you want to be? Can you be Where you want to be? Can you be Where you want to be? Can you be Where you want to be? |

Like a cloud his fingers explode
On the typewriter ribbon, the shadow grows His hearts in a bowl behind the bank And every evening when he get home To make his supper and eat it alone His black shirt cries While his shoes get cold It's just a dream he keeps having And it doesn't seem to mean anything And it doesn't seem to mean anything One summer, a suicide Another autumn, a travelers guide He hits snooze twice before he dies And every evening when he get home To make his supper and eat it alone His black shirt cries While his shoes get cold It's just a dream he keeps having And it doesn't seem to mean anything It's just a dream he keeps having He feels lucky to have you here In his kitchen, in your chair Sometimes he forgets that you're even there It's just a dream he keeps having And it doesn't seem to mean anything It's just a dream he keeps having It's just a dream And it doesn't seem to mean anything |

Genuine
Day will come When the wind Decides to run And shakes the stairs That stab the wall And turns the page In a future age Some trees will bend And some will fall But then again So will us all Lets turn our prayers Into outrageous dares And mark our page In a future age High above The sea of cars And barking dogs In fenced-in yards |

I'm the boy that looks excited
I'm the boy that's gonna fall apart Candyfloss, I lie to myself I'm the boy that eats his heart out I know I should be more careful I know I should watch where I've been Candyfloss and she's a safecracker She kissed me first and then broke in We slip and slide on the stay-together landmine I make my mind up to never be myself And every time I fake around I live my life for someone else Oh-whoa-whoa Oh-whoa-whoa Oh-whoa-whoa She's in the kitchen with bitter diamond drunks (She's in the way) I'm on the sofa hoping she leaves that punk cause (I'm in the way) I'm the boy with the poetry power I'm the boy, smells like flowers Every time I dick around I live my life like I wasn't invited Oh-whoa-whoa She's in the way I'm in the way I'm the boy that looks excited I'm the boy that's gonna fall apart Candyfloss, she kissed me first And I'm the boy, don't get me started I know I should be more careful I know I should watch where I've been Candyfloss, she's a safecracker She kissed me first, then broke in Oh-whoa-whoa |

The ashtray says
You were up all night When you went to bed With your darkest mind Your pillow wept And covered your eyes And you finally slept While the sun caught fire Youve changed We fell in love In the key of C We walked along Down by the sea You followed me down The neck to D And fell again Into the sea You changed Oh, youve changed Maybe all I need is a shot in the arm Maybe all I need is a shot in the arm Maybe all I need is a shot in the arm Maybe all I need is a shot in the arm Maybe all I need is a shot in the arm Maybe all I need is a shot in the arm Maybe all I need is a shot in the arm Something in my veins bloodier than blood Something in my veins bloodier than blood Something in my veins bloodier than blood Something in my veins bloodier than blood The ashtray says You were up all night When you went to bed With your darkest mind You changed Oh, youve changed What you once were isnt what you want to be any more What you once were isnt what you want to be any more What you once were isnt what you want to be any more What you once were isnt what you want to be any more What you once were isnt what you want to be any more |

Maybe the sun will shine today
The clouds will blow away Maybe I won't feel so afraid I will try to understand either way Maybe you still love me, maybe you don't Either you will or you won't Maybe you just need some time alone I will try to understand Everything has its plan Either way I'm going to stay right for you Maybe the sun will shine today The clouds will roll away Maybe I won't be so afraid I will understand Everything has its plan either way |

I remember my mother's
Sister's husband's brother Working in the goldmine full time Filling in for sunshine Filing into tight lines, ordinary beehives The door screams, "I hate you, hate you hanging 'round my blue jeans." Why is there no breeze? No currency of leaves? No current through the water while No feelings I can see I trust no emotion I believe in locomotion That turn to rust as we discuss Though I must have let you down too many times In the dirt and the dust I have no idea how this happens All of my maps have been overwrote Happenstance has changed my plans So many times my heart has been outgrown Now everybody's feeling all alone Can't tell you who I am When everybody's feeling all alone Can't tell you who I am I am looking forward Towards the shadows, chasing bones Our face is stitched in sewing Our houses hemmed into homes Trying to be thankful Our stories fit into phones Our voices lift so easily A gift given accidentally When we're not sure we're not alone |

Oh the band marched on in formation
The brass was phasing tunes I couldn't place Windows open and raining in a room yellow, blue, gold and gray The drunks were ricocheting The old buildings downtown empty so long ago Windows broken and dreaming So happy to leave what was a home With the sky blue sky, this ride in time wouldn't seem so bad to me now Oh, I didn't die; I should be satisfied I survived It's good enough for now With the sky blue sky, this ride in time wouldn't seem so bad to me now Oh, if I didn't die, I should be satisfied I survived It's good enough for now |

Tires type black
Where the blacktop cracks Weeds spark through Dark green enough to be blue When the mysteries we believe in Aren't dreamed enough to be true Some side with the leaves Some side with the seeds The treetops nod The rain applauds The park grows dark And the swings all slowly die But you and I will be undefeated By agreeing to disagree No one wins but the thieves So why side with anything? The streetlights glow Comes and goes When the sun comes back As we all can plainly see Embracing the situation Is our only chance to be free Oh, I'll side with you If you side with me |

Sunlight angles on
A wooden floor at dawn A ceiling fan is on Chopping up my dreams What is left of them I take to sleep again Where I dare pretend I'm more than I seem Tears get triggered Yours remind me Of the ice melting in my glass Finally full again So I listen for Your lips to break apart Into words It definitely starts To spoil my heart Somewhere there's a war But sometimes there is art It definitely starts To spoil my heart Somewhere there's a war But sometimes there is art When I'm awake enough I'm gonna shake it off I'm gonna shake it off I've gotta shake it off I'll shake it off Shake it off Shake it off Shake it off Hotels hold me Thoughts are rising So many hearts Beating in one place Like a giant Beast with many souls Now just a body Full of holes When I'm awake enough I'm gonna shake it off I'm gonna shake it off I've gotta shake it off When I'm awake enough I'm gonna shake it off I'm gonna shake it off I've gotta shake it off I'm gonna shake it off Shake it off Shake it off Shake it off Shake it off |

I should warn you when I'm not well
I can tell Oh, there's nothing I can do To make this easier for you You're gonna need to be patient with me I'm this apple, this happening stone When I'm alone Oh, but my blessings get so blurred At the sound of your words I'm gonna need you to be patient with me How can I warn you when my tongue turns to dust like we've discussed? It doesn't mean that I don't care It means I'm partially there You're gonna need to be patient with me |

I try to stay busy I do the dishes, I mow the lawn I try to keep myself occupied Even though I know you're not coming home I try to keep the house nice and neat I make my bed I change the sheets I even learned how to use the washing machine But keeping things clean doesn't change anything What am I gonna do when I run out of shirts to fold? What am I gonna do when I run out of lawn to mow? What am I gonna do if you never come home? Tell me, what am I gonna do? I hate it I hate it here When you're gone I caught myself thinking I caught myself thinking once again Have to try to keep my mind out of this Try not to pretend I'll check the phone I'll check the mail I'll check the phone again and I call your mom She says you're not there and I should take care I hate it here When you're gone I hate it I hate it here When you're gone I try to stay busy I take out the trash, I sweep the floor Try to keep myself occupied Cause I know you don't live here anymore |

You might be lonely too That's what I wish for Somebody just like you To tell me what to do Honestly And leave me like you found me Can you believe it? I'm somebody just like you Content with being blue Honestly And leave me like you found me I sit on the couch alone Where you sit when I'm not home And I feel so close To you And down the city streets People are climbing the trees They're finally up off their knees Honestly You leave me like you found me Can you leave me like you found me? |

If you feel like singing a song
And you want other people to sing along Then just sing what you feel Don't let anyone say it's wrong And if you're trying to paint a picture But you're not sure which colors belong Just paint what you see Don't let anyone say it's wrong And if you're strung out like a kite Or stung awake in the night It's alright to be frightened When there's a light What light There's a light What light There's a light White light Inside of you You think you might need somebody To pick you up when you drag Don't lose sight of yourself Don't let anyone change you back And if the whole world's singing your songs And all you're paintings have been hung Just remember what was yours is everyone's from now on And that's not wrong or right But you can struggle with it all you like You'll only get uptight When there's a light What light There's a light What light There's a light White light There's a light White light There's a light One light There's a light White light There's a light One light There's a light White light There's a light One light There's a light One light There's a light White light Well, there's a light White light Inside of you There's a light White light There's a light White light There's a light White light There's a light One light |

By the end of the bout
He was punched out Fists capsized, muscles shouting Deeper down, he felt the insult of a kiss Deeper still than we can go Further out than triremes row Drowning slow His memories persist Out beyond the telescopes prowl Up above the towers touched up pile He realized, this mystery is his Underneath the ocean floor The part of who we are, we don't explore I adore the meaninglessness of the this We can express By the end of the bout He was punched out Fists capsized, muscles shouting Deeper down, he felt the comfort of a kiss |

It's in the river, over the road It's shining down, my angry star Hanging off the hood of my car Not going far, not going far It's coming down, they're coming up the shoulders What have they found? I wonder if they'd know I'm in a bull black Chevy Nova, silhouetted by the setting sun This can't be undone, this can't be undone If I am the one, blood on the sofa Blood in the sink, blood in the trunk High at the wheel of a bull black Nova And I'm sorry as a setting sun This can't be undone, can't be outrun It's in my hair, there's blood in the sink I can't calm down, I can't think I keep calling, there's blood in the trunk I can't calm down, I freak out, black out |

Wake up we're here
It's so much worse than we feared There's nothing left here The country has disappeared If the winter trees bleeding, leave red blood The summer sweet dreaming, April blush But none of that is ever gonna mean as much to me again. Hold out your hand, There's so much you don't understand So stick as close as you can, All of the best laid plans You've got the white clouds hanging so high above you You've got the helicopters dangling angling to shoot, The shots to feed the hungry weekend news crew anchorman. So every evening we can watch from above, Crushed cities like a bug Fold ourselves into each others guts, And turn our faces up to the sun. I won't take no I won't let you go All by yourself Oh no you'll need my help When the cold night shakes you like a chandelier The snowflakes break through the atmosphere, And melt on the blue breath of the auctioneers and disappear. Every evening we can watch from above, Crushed cities like a bug Fold ourselves into each others blood, And turn our faces up to the sun. |

Once I thought the world was crazy
Everyone was sad and chasing Happiness and love and I was the only one above it Once I thought without a doubt I had it all figured out Universe with hands unseen I was cold as gasoline Took too long to think I was wrong to believe, in me only Once my life was a game so unfair It beat me down and kept me there Unaware of my naysayer Solitaire was all I was playing Took too long to see I was wrong to believe, in me only |
