1. Rocknroll
It’s Tuesday and I already hit the bottle?I can’t even fall in love at happy hour?I think I’ll go home now and dream about?the nightmares that could be?like all my friends turning into my enemies?You’re good at pushing me out
Late that night I am awakened by the banshee’s cry?and I am much too scared to get a drink?I see the rusty swing set blow ?from generations long ago?under moonlight the plow is stained?by the power of your name?You’re good at pushing me out
The farmer’s daughter raises hell?when I try to kiss her?screaming “daddies” now I run?here’s to sickle swinging fun?You’re good at pushing me out
2. Down Towards The Healing
I want to make you happy?But I’ve fallen, I’m sorry?I thought my wings could hold me up ?with angels not demons?you don’t know how cool you are?to find the ways to love me without shame??I want my life to be red?with trees and like Autumn?I’d float away from evil and?Down towards the healing?so sad now we have become?the children trapped in the mazes?I’d give my soul to the one who has the courage?to find me and free me now
if I run I’ll just become like all the faking lights?so let the thunders take me under ?and break my legs tonight
3. Skeleton Jill
Friends are friends untill they see gold
Friends are friends untill they grow old
Friends are friends who reach out their hands
and before the arson take what they can
making out like we overcome thise life
skeletons in the closet locked deep inside
who holds the key I need to know, who holds the key
Friends are friends untill they drive drunk
Friends are friends who are locked in my trunk
Friends are friends untill they have sex
complicate the pregnancy test
reaching forward to overcome this life
skeletons in the closet locked deep inide
who holds the key I need to know
who holds the key, I need it!
carress the summer, where friends are weeds
curse the summer, who choke on me
carress the sdummer, I’ve fallen asleep
crse the summer, to the sound of screams
in a moment I’ll cross this hill
to find my life is in peices
cause in a moment my secret spills and Jill knows the end of my mind
reaching out to you overcome this life
she might have held the key…..fuck
4. Pandamoranda
I think you’re swelling, ready to sink and swallow
Is this your true love?
It’s a pleasure to meet you America
Wait for signs of youth
Wait for signs that never arrive
Ringing your bell and anger the pandamoranda
Wait for signs of youth
Wait for signs that never arrive
Like this is a white coliseum and you are the fighter
Why not pretend that you have the strength of victorious men
And let’s say the bull is nearly approaching with speed and agility
Take off your shirt and wave in the air because you are the sign
5. The Narcoleptic
Driving late at night
and I’m falling asleep
your pills barely keep me awake
dreaming of dragons carrying away
princesses in my mind
drinking from fountains, pipe dreams wade
making ripples in my pool
-
this is something you can’t deny
you’re freaking me out
every fairy tale needs a hero like me
to work things out
I gotta work it out
-
the queen says she needs me
to rescue her tall towers
but I say “some other time”
-
This is something I can’t deny
it’s seeking me out
every woman and child
needs a hero like me to save them all
I better work my stuff
-
No thanks really….
6. Goodbye Blue Fly
If I can I will be right for you, always for you
If I can I will be waiting for you, right here for you
I’ll sing you lullybies oh
I’ll kiss you a soft goodnight
And as my castles fall your dreams dream on
in love tonight, goodbye blue fly
