Grab my sheets when I'm falling off
This floor is carpet, I don't need no mop
The mess is made and the damage done
"I love you Jesus, my favorite son!"
I'm going out to sea, don't follow me
The storm is far too strong
To shoot yourself for fun, when it's not your gun
You've no respect to say the least
A lone church organ, a wall of sound
"You'll read these scriptures, till you're in the ground"
Don't drink the water! Don't sip the kool aid!
The punch is poisoned! So's the sweets they made!
I'm going out to sea, don't follow me
The storm is far too strong
To shoot yourself for fun, when it's not your gun
You've no respect to say the least
"God, give me lots of candy"
"Oh God, please let me get laid"
"Oh God, make my hair look dandy"
Fuck the kids with no name
"Come on!
Shut up!
You greedy, needy fucks!
I'm a busy, busy man,
so hold your own hand!
I'll be gone when the sun comes up!"
I'm going out to sea, don't follow me
The storm is far too strong
To shoot yourself for fun, when its not your gun
You've no respect to say the least.
To say the least.

Sharpie Huffing

The neighborhood was falling into dreams
But burst at the seams
When they heard her yell
A shrill muddled scream with the roaring of traffic
A bubbling of courage, but nobody had it
in them to get up out of bed to help her out.
Ignorance is bliss I guess
A blessing for the weak at best
But no one seems to try it
They'll break it just buy it
Wrapped up in your bed at night
A baby who can read and write
A useless piece of shit
Who can not take a stand to save their life cause:
"They said it'd be safe!"
A lie that continues evolving
"I guess it's ok..."
but what we have built now is falling
"View them as extensions of yourself"
The general yelled
They heard him well
The bombs and bullets, deals under the table
They'll send them right out; un-ready, un-able
commendable expendables as well
An LSD glow
I'm ready lets pack up, go home
I'm ready to listen
Take me, Take me,
Take me home.
Ignorance is bliss I guess
A blessing for the weak at best
But no one seems to try it
They'll break it just buy it
Wrapped up in their beds at night
Just babies who can read and write
Oh sharpie huffing keeps me right at home
Oh, where my mind feels right.
Well if I could take it all back, I would take it all back,
again.
If I could take it all back, I would take it back again.

Me

Fun, so much fun
When you're young
But then the cuffs go on the legs
Of your love
Ash to ash we fall
A brick inside the wall
But no one wanted to tell me that
Time, time is old and dumb
Always cold and numb
Minutes wasting time
With age you'll loose your mind
But no one wanted to tell me that

San Fransisco

Kiss me, even if it's through the telephone
I know, 400 miles may seem too far to go
I miss you, I feel like I just have to have you near
It's too hard, to live without you when I'm here
Day by day the world does turn
And when the sun beats down it burns
We're supposed to love what life has given
But I miss you
When I'm with you I'm at home, but now I'm feeling so alone
Now that you're up in San Fransisco
This sucks, watching all the grass grow wasting time
Tik tok, even as we speak it passes by
Good god, hurry please my heart is breaking fast
Save me, baby I just want this thing to last
Day by day the world does turn
And when the sun beats down it burns
We're supposed to love what life has given
But I miss you
When I'm with you I'm at home, but now I'm feeling so alone
Now that you're up in San Fransisco

Letter to Sidney

Sidney,
My heart melts when I hear your name. Theirs may not, when they hear mine, but I hope you feel the same. "Problems lead to problems," I hear it all everyday. This is what I say. Let my next mistake be you, Sidney. You're so far away but you're still here with me. What'd your mother say? Why can't she let us be? Problems lead to problems, I hear it everyday. This is what I say. Let my next mistake be you Sidney.
Love,
Kentucky

last night
wash away
feel much better today
forget
what she said
it's all in your head
bite your lip and feign a smile
things blow over in awhile
keep your cool don't loose your sight
it'll all turn out alright
when I'm with you
you, you and me
are we really meant to be
me, me and you
we're just doing what we do
maybe you're having fun with someone else
but I need to leave those thoughts on the shelf
baby you make me feel like I'm alright
can I see you tonight
I just want you

Sleeping All Day
04:16

Another day, another doughnut
Wake me when the crescent shows up
Hour by hour the sun will pass on by
4 o'clock and still no movement
Didn't think I'd really do it
Hours until the sun will leave the sky
Sleeping all day long.
Hour by hour, I count the minutes
Waiting for the day to finish
Smoke a couple bowls to pass the time
Coca Cola, Dr. Pepper
Lead me through the stormy weather
Coffee with a piece of apple pie
Sleeping all day long
Another day of no connections,
No missed calls, and warped perception down
Didn't think I'd really want this
Now I don't know what the sun is, wow
Sleeping all day long

Between the Peaks
02:25

Coffee and cigarettes
3 in the morning with her
A 5 hour drive just to whisper and laugh in the whir
Cause she's over the hedge
I'm between the peaks
A dream of a family, nice little house in the burbs
I could live I could die here if it means I'm dying with her
Cause she's over the hedge
I'm between the peaks
I could live in a cottage on my own...
Between the peaks.

Hey Judie
07:41

The feeling of sex when it's forced
Is often compared to being kick by a horse
So let's lay her out on the floor
Just for a dime saddle up on the whore
But nobody seems to care
Why she has to work in underwear
Gotta pay the bills this month
So take her for a ride, you make enough
Judie
A woman has got to work
So why don't you sell what you've got for its worth
Somebodies got to pay
To feed these kids so they're properly raised
Why'd daddy go away?
A painful inquisition everyday
A print of his name on her arm
Her skins not the only thing he scarred.
Judie
Hey Judie

Time, is just a thing
That some, take way too seriously
I came, to go away
The day is way too grueling
So I'll be coming round the mountain when the morning comes
And I will be bringing trouble so be ready to run.
Denial, a repressed sting
Our souls, are hanging by a string
So stop me from falling in
into that abyss, and death's wrists
So I'll be coming round the mountain when the morning comes
And I will be bringing trouble so be ready to run.
Can you keep
a secret?
I don't want it
You Keep it
Sigh's in the sky but rotten beauty
"The sun will never rise without me."
Said the man with nothing left to prove
Get your heels out of my soul
I'm just trying to gain control
and they're just trying to get out, of the water.
Can you keep
a secret?
I don't want it
You keep it
