All you had to do was ask...

Sat, 02 Feb 2008 06:24:35 GMT

This is a time in my life
Where everything is falling apart,
And at the same time, it's all coming together.

Those summer days that I longed for
Never really were what I
Wanted them to be.

Just like when beautiful people drive ugly cars.
Just like when pretty people crash ugly cars.
I'm hitting the road again
With five of my best friends.
We always seem to disagree,
But I still enjoy their company.
But I still enjoy their company.

And when I'm here,
I'll make you a mixed tape.
Those singers always know
Just what to say.

My throat is already hurting,
And it's not even the first day.
The record sounds great,
But for some reason
I can't pull it off from day to day.

This is the time in my life
Where everything is falling apart,
And at the same time, it's all coming together.
It's all coming together.
It's all coming together.
It's all coming together.

This is the time in my life
Where everything is falling apart,
And at the same time, it's all coming together.
It's all coming together.
It's all coming together.

Blackest Eyes

Sat, 03 Nov 2007 14:41:41 GMT

A mother sings a lullabye to her child
Sometime in the future the boy goes wild
And all his nerves are feeling some kind of energy.

Walk in the woods and I will try
Something in the trees that made you cry
It's so erotic when your makeup runs.

I got wiring loose inside my head
I got books that I never ever read
I got secrets in my garden shed
I got a scar where all my urges bled
I got people underneath my bed
I got a place where all my dreams are dead
Swim with me into your blackest eyes.

A few minutes with me inside my van
Should be so beautiful if we can
I'm feeling something taking over me

Heart Transplant

Sun, 14 Oct 2007 18:50:56 GMT

If you think that I don't notice
that you're not looking me in the eye
then you're blind and I don't have the time,
to sit here and wonder
just what's under your skin tonight.

And I know that there's a problem
but I don't understand
if what's in my chest is now in your hand,
I don't want to hear a word but I do.

Go to hell, who needs you,
I say that because I don't believe you.
Take my words the way I'm taking yours.
Its not fair, you know me,
but you don't even hear me,
Listen once, and listen close to me

Even a heart transplant
wouldn't show you how I feel would it baby.
Its tearing up my past now.
Yeah, it wouldn't show you how I feel would it now.

And those inside jokes and things we know
are the furthest thing from my mind,
but you let one slip and I forget and smile.
But I shouldn't because I hate you
and I hope this irritates you
as much as it does to me for even
thinking that I don't want you.
I'm not looking at you like I used to
when you'd kiss me and
when you'd want me, what did I do?
What did I say?

What did I do?
What did I say to make you forget?
What did I do?
What did I say to make you forget?

Time goes by and wonders why
and where and how and what you've learned.
and who is this you're sitting with tonight.
I'm over you, way over due now
but my heart lies to and between my past.
But if I pretend for a minute and put all that I have into it,
I swear that I can still feel
your something, but its probably nothing.

What did I do?
What did I say to make you forget?
What did I do?
What did I say to make you forget?

Even a heart transplant
wouldn't show you how I feel would it baby.
Its tearing up my past now.
Yeah, it wouldn't show you how I feel would it now.

Your Life and Mine

Mon, 08 Oct 2007 03:40:14 GMT

I can see from across the room
There's a tear in your storied eye
I was leaving but I'm coming back
Since your heart's in beat with mine
That Mark didn't do you right
When he left in your best friend's ride
With the face of an angel, girl
You deserve to be treated more than right

Realized I was passing through
From the moment I saw you
I was hypnotized
Couldn't wait to get you alone
So I could walk with you
So I could talk with you, oh

Go ahead and call your friends
I'll do whatever it takes
So I can make you trust
This party's going south
Let me know what's going on with us

Cause it's all right
There's nothing to stop us
If it feels right
Then everything's fine
For just one night
Baby, go back to your life
And I'll go back to mine

Last night I saw a photograph
From the party where we chilled
(Party where we chilled)
It was showing the two of us
And the Colt 45 we killed
(Colt 45 we killed)
Here I am just writing you
A letter from the distance past
(From the distance past)
Enclosed is a photograph
To remind you of the times we had

Cause it's all right
There's nothing to stop us
If it feels right
Then everything's fine
For just one night
Baby, go back to your life
And I'll go back to mine

It's all right
(We can make it if you want to, baby)
Come inside
(I would love to show you the way)
For tonight
(And I'm not talking about forever)
I'm just talking tonight

I can see from across the room
There's a tear in your storied eye
I was leaving but I'm coming back
Since your heart's in beat with mine
That Mark didn't do you right
When he left in your best friend's ride
With the face of an angel, girl
You deserve to be treated more than right

Cause it's all right
There's nothing to stop us
If it feels right
Then everything's fine
For just one night
Baby, go back to your life
And I'll go back to mine

Cause it's all right
There's nothing to stop us
If it feels right
Then everything's fine
For just one night
Baby, go back to your life
And I'll go back to mine
(Don't you know we're going back?)
And I'll go back to mine

JUST SURRENDER

What Shall We Do Now?

Mon, 01 Oct 2007 02:47:00 GMT

What shall we do to fill the empty spaces
Where waves of hunger roar?
Shall we set out across the sea of faces
In search of more and more applause?
Shall we buy a new guitar?
Shall we drive a more powerful car?
Shall we work straight through the night?
Shall we get into fights?
Leave the lights on?
Drop bombs?
Do tours of the east?
contract diseases?
Bury bones?
Break up homes?
Send flowers by phone?
Take to drink?
Go to shrinks?
Give up meat?
Rarely sleep?
Keep people as pets?
Train dogs?
Race rats?
Fill the attic with cash?
Bury treasure?
Store up leisure?
But never relax at all
With our backs to the wall.

September Brought The Fall

Sun, 30 Sep 2007 07:17:55 GMT

left a post-it note on her wall
but september, yeah, she brought the fall
and with every cold breath, shell be catching her death before long

so contemptible at the card table
watching her cut the lines
im so cynical- fucking miserable
deconstruct by design

she was only a lonely accomplice

it was all for the best in the end
but id die to make her realize im only trying to get through- its long overdue

hope youre happy now
distance wont allow me to build bridges to you
its kinda funny how youre all over town
like its the right thing to do

its despicable how this criminal gets away with the prize shes so pitiful- often critical- watching others scrape by

better watch out if you fall in love with a liar
cause boy shell tear you apart
shell blow out the spark in your eye
better watch out if you fall victim to desire
cause boy shell tap out your heart
and leave you with nothing inside

When Did Your Heart Go Missing?

Sat, 08 Sep 2007 15:52:57 GMT

Love don't come so easily
This doesn't have to end in tragedy
I have you and you have me
We're one and a million
Why can't you see?

I'm waitin', waitin' for nothin'
You're leavin', leavin' me hangin'
When did your heart go missin'?
When did your heart go missin'?
I treat you like a princess
But your life is just one big mess
When did your heart go missin'?
When did your heart go missin'?

I meant every word I said
I never was lyin' when we talked in bed
I'm retracin' every step in my head
What did I miss back then?
I was so, so misled

I'm waitin', waitin' for nothin'
You're leavin', leavin' me hangin'
When did your heart go missin'?
When did your heart go missin'?
I treat you like a princess
But your life is just one big mess
When did your heart go missin'?
When did your heart go missin'?

I don't understand
How could you forget what we had?
It's so wrong

I'm waitin', waitin' for nothin'
You're leavin', leavin' me hangin'
When did your heart go missin'?
When did your heart go missin'?
I treat you like a princess
But your life is just one big mess
When did your heart go missin'?
When did your heart go missin'?

Things were so good
We had a little dream, a little dream together
Buy a house, settle down, do our thing
But you disappeared on me
And your heart, your heart went missin'
I don't know how to find it
I don't know where it is
I don't know where your heart went
It was here just the other day
Now it's gone
I'm gonna call the police
Call the investigator, the heart investigator

Scratched Out

Sat, 08 Sep 2007 15:51:39 GMT

wake up and waste a day
chase away
a day at a time
and waste away
clean-faced today
clean taste today
toothpaste makes my orange juice sour
waste an hour
or so
my shower is slow
the flowers that grow
outside of my window
are blooming
I'm assuming
that you're comin' over soon
it's almost half past four
and you called here at noon
'cause there's a picture that you wanna see
now I'm not even good at being me anymore.

She's got nicotine-basted lungs
wasted thumbs
and one of them asphalt tastin' tounges
she wakes up to her alarm
her make-up is still on
and she can't remember why she set the damn thing
her heart is a machine
art is meant to be seen
not felt
not heard
it's just paint
they're just words
and fingers are for feeling
fists are for beating
scabs are for healing
and blood is for bleeding
that's just how I used to be
but I'm not even good at being me anymore

I wake up and waste an hour
pace and glower
at the TV set wasting power
aching in my head
I'm banking in the red
and compulsively charging cd's to my account
so come out Virginia, don't make me wait
you Catholic girls start much too late
now it's too late in the day
for a matinee
and I ain't got the money to pay
for you anyway
what should I say?
I know it ain't how it used to be
but I'm not good at being me anymore.

I'm not the only one that thinks
it's safe to say you've changed

Remember the good old days

I'm not the only one that thinks
it's safe to say you're only hip
as in hypocrite, critically unaclaimed

Stop looking at the mess that we've made
And what the hell has happened over night at making mistakes
We'll work it out
Maybe it will work out itself
Where tomorrow takes us no one can tell
I took the long way home today
hoping that we wouldn't cross paths unusually
It's a part of my routine
and I am trying to change
I'll take the long way

Remember the good old days

Five steps to the center we stand
Let's throw a coin up and see how it lands
The way we were, the way we weren't
Who's to say?
How much of you and me do you still see?
How much of you and me do you still see?
(Do you see?) How much do you see?

Write it down baby don't forget
Did you lose all your friends because of me?

Change your name and your address
It was all a consequence
Did you lose all your friends because of me?

What happened, why did we, where will we go?

Remember the good old days? (Do you remember?)

Park Lane Speakers

Wed, 22 Aug 2007 15:25:45 GMT

I was having a fall,
And listening to The Fall,
I was having a bourbon,
Having a glass,
Listening for the door,
In case your brother walked past.

I have a note and nowadays I drink it really fast,
Cos you lined 'em up good and proper,
In case we had a cold,
That was your excuse,
To join me in confusion,
To join me at the gig of little MC Fusion,
Where we nearly stole a mic,
And it was whipped away in front of us,
Nearly got a cab and now we're heading for the night bus.

Everyday I say, never pay for one of those things,
Surviving on an upper wing,
Hate it worse than bee stings.

Walk, and you'll save in the dark,
But meet strangers in the park,
And it's a lovely place,
Where they're gonna change your face.

I joke but I don't joke..

I have a friend who it happened to a friend,
And he was living it for years,
As if this was his only year.
He was living it dearly and hating it daily,
And giving everything up cos his mind had sent him crazy.

I said to my friend, of which this guy was a friend,
If I do a compilation,
A selected compilation,
And I give it to you,
Will you give it to him?
Too will you tell him that I know it's not a cure?
And if you do,
Tell him that i'm just thinking up, will do,
And that friends are pretty seldom,
You can bottle up or tell them,
What is is haunting you,
Or daunting you,
In the majority of isolated cases,
They don't do.

Walk, and you'll save in the dark,
We'll play strangers in the park,
And it's a lovely place,
Where your friends will save a space for us on the grass.

And it'll always pass, like the song I put on,
'All This Will Pass' by George Harrison.
And the windows may be squeaking but you'll drown in the sound,
Of the park lane speakers,

Get some park lane speakers in your ear,
And you'd wanna know what song it is,
That's taken you here,
Well the way it works is on your shirt,
You look and it'll tell you what you hear,
It'll tell you what's taken you here,
Get better...

Get some park lane speakers in your ear,
And you'd wanna know what song it is,
That's taken you here,
Well the way it works is on your shirt,
You look and it'll tell you what you hear,
It'll tell you what's taken you here,
Get better... I...

The Stone

Tue, 14 Aug 2007 03:42:02 GMT

I've this creeping
Suspicion that things are not as they seem
Reassure me
Why do I feel as if I'm in too deep
I've been praying
For some way to show them
I'm not what they see
Yes I have done wrong
But what I did I thought needed be done
I swear
Unholy day
If I leave now I might get away
This weighs on me
As heavy as stone and as blue as I go
I was just wondering if you'd come along
To hold up my head when my head won't hold on
I'll do the same if the same's what you want
If not I'll go
I will go alone
I'm a long way
From that fool's mistake and now forever pay
No, run
I will run and I'll be ok
I was just wondering if you'd come along
To hold up my head when my head won't hold on
I'll do the same if the same's what you want
If not I'll go
I will go alone
I need so
To stay in your arms see you smile hold you close
And it weighs on me
As heavy as stone and a bone chilling cold
I was just wondering if you'd come along
Tell me you will

Breakdown

Fri, 10 Aug 2007 04:30:24 GMT

When was the last time you talked to me?
Seriously
I feel like I don't even know you
And I would rather me leave
Than stay and watch you make a fool of me

You might as well leave
You might as well let me know now
You might as well go, go, go
I never wanna see your face round here anymore
Cause it's a breakdown, a breakdown
Where do we go from here?
It's a breakdown, a breakdown

Looking at me lying
If I said I wasn't getting quite bored of you yet
And your consistent nagging
And your constant state of panic
Is unnecessary stress for me

You're the tip, tip, tip-top of the charts
You're the best thing I've ever done
And the reality is that I wrote this song for you

You might as well leave
You might as well let me know now
You might as well go, go, go
I never wanna see your face round here anymore
Cause it's a breakdown, a breakdown
Where do we go from here?
It's a breakdown, a breakdown

When wood floors meet high heels
And shadows form from chandeliers
When wood floors meet high heels
And shadows form from chandeliers

You might as well leave
You might as well let me know now
You might as well go, go, go
I never wanna see your face round here anymore
Cause it's a breakdown, a breakdown
Where do we go from here?
It's a breakdown, a breakdown

Foot Impressions

Sat, 21 Jul 2007 18:29:24 GMT

So I'll leave you
To enjoy the days you spend without me
So wish in your hand
And I'll shit in mine
And I bet you mine fills up first

Words seem to roll right off your tongue
You articulate in perfect sentences and make a masterpiece of ending my life
So clever with your let downs as you fill the air with lies
So I'll sit alone and wonder what is really going on beyond your eyes

I'll circle your house for days and hope that you come to meet me
So many foot impressions form a moat
And you'll see how deep my feelings are for you
And you still won't care

So I'll leave you
To enjoy the days you spend without me
Let's hold hands
And be the best of friends
And I bet I'll never feel this way again

An accident, a little slip
You know I hardly noticed
So come again, so come again

A stammered word, forgotten line
A question from a past time
So come again, so come again

Get it together
Sometime in Beautiful Never
Cos I’m not coming home tonight

I will forgive, I will forget
I will be lying now you bet
The choice is yours, the chance is yours
But chances are
You’ll think it’s far enough to stay right where you are
The choice is yours, the chance is yours

Get it together
Sometime in Beautiful Never
Cos I’m not coming home tonight

We’re all doing something
Won’t you just do something?
No, you’ll never get it right

Over and over and over again
You say that we're just friends
Forget the implications, infatuations end
If love's so easy, why's it hard
I can't imagine ever being apart
I'd come back to you, It'd be brand new
And I promise, we're just friends
Over and over and over again
I try to make amends
For every thing that I've done wrong
My whole world just ends
You make some coffee
Hold me up, try to talk me out of
Pulling up, and come back to you
It'll be brand new
I promise
We're just friends.

Your eyes tell the stories of a day you wish you could
Recall the moments that once have
Retrack the footsteps that brought us to this favor
I wouldn't ask this of you

Good eye, sniper
I shoot, you run

The words you scribbled on the walls
With the loss of friends you didn't have
I'll call you when the time is right
Are you in or are you out?
For them all to know the end of us all

Run quick, they're behind us
Didn't think we'd ever make it
This close to safety in one piece
Now you want to kill me in the act of what could maybe
Save us from sleep and what we are

Good eye, sniper
Now I shoot, you run

The words you scribbled on the walls
With the loss of friends you didn't have
I'll call you when the time is right
Are you in or are you out?
For them all to know the end of us all

Bye bye, beautiful
Don't bother to write
Disturbed by your words and they're calling all cars
Face step, let down
Face step, step down

The words you scribbled on the walls
With the loss of friends you didn't have
I'll call you when the time is right
Are you in or are you out?
For them all to know

Bye bye, beautiful
Don't bother to write
Disturbed by your words and they're calling all cars
Face step, let down
Face step, step down

Bye bye, beautiful
Don't bother to write
Disturbed by your words and they're calling all cars

The cash machine, is blue and green
For a hundred in twenties and a small service fee
I can spend 3 dollars and 63 cents
On diet Coca Cola and unlit cigarettes
I wonder why we listen to poets and 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
A fresh wind and bright skies To enjoy my sufferings
A hole without a key if I break my tongue
Speaking of tomorrow, how will it ever come
All my lies are only wishes
I know I would die if I could come back new

I'm down on my hands and knees every time the doorbell rings
I shake like a toothache when I hear myself sing
All my lies are always 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 falling leaves filling up shopping bags

Lullaby

Mon, 02 Jul 2007 04:00:17 GMT

She grew up with
the children of the stars
in the hollywood hills and the boulevard
her parents threw big parties
everyone was there
they hung out with folks like
dennis hopper, bob seeger, sonny and cher

Now, she feels safe
in this bar on fairfax
and from the stage I can tell that
she can't let go and she can't relax
and just before
she hangs her head to cry
I sing to her a lullaby, I sing

Everything's gonna be all right
Rockabye, Rockabye
Everything's gonna be all right
Rockabye, Rockabye
Rockabye

She still lives with her mom
outside the city
down that street about a half a mile
and all her friends tell her
she's so pretty
but she'd be a whole lot prettier
if she smiled once in a while
`Cause even her smile
looks like a frown
She's seen her share of devils
in this angel town

But, everything's gonna be all right
Rockabye, Rockabye
Everything's gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye
rockabye

I told her I ain't so sure
about this place
It's hard to play a gig in this town
And keep a straight face
seems like everyone here's got a plan
It's kind of like nashville with a tan, but,

Everything's gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye
Everything's gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye

Everything's gonna be all right
Rockabye, rockabye
Everything's gonna be all right
Rockabye, rockabye,rockabye, bye, bye

Diary of Jane

Wed, 30 May 2007 03:33:45 GMT

If I had to
I would put myself right beside you
So let me ask
Would you like that?
Would you like that?

And I don't mind
If you say this love is the last time
So now I'll ask
Do you like that?
Do you like that?

No

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
So tell me how it should be

Try to find out what makes you tick
As I lie down
Sore and sick
Do you like that?
Do you like that?

There's a fine line between love and hate
And I don't mind
Just let me say that I like that
I like that

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place in the diary of Jane
So tell me how it should be

Desperate, I will crawl
Waiting for so long
No love, there is no love
Die for anyone
What have I become

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place
In the diary of Jane

A cloud hangs over
This city by the sea
I watch the ships pass
And wonder if she might be
Out there and sober
As well from loneliness
Please do persist girl
It's time we met and made a mess

I picture your face
In the back of my eyes
A fire in the attic
A proof of the prize
Anomaly
Anomaly
Anomaly

A cloud hangs over
And mutes my happiness
A thousand ships come and sail me
Back from distress
Wish you here
I'm a wounded satellite
I need you now
Put me back together
Make me right

I picture your face
In the back of my eyes
A fire in the attic
A proof of the prize

I'll call out your name
Up into the air
Not one of the others could ever compare
Anomaly
Anomaly
Anomaly

Wait
There is a light
There is a fire
Illuminated attic
Fate or something better
I could care less
Just stay with me a while

Wait
There is a light
There is a fire
Defragmenting the attic
Fate or something better
I could care less
Just stay with me a while

I picture your face
In the back of my eyes
A fire in the attic
A proof of the prize

I'll call out your name
Up into the air
Not one of the others could ever compare
Anomaly
Oh, anomaly

There'll be time to get by to get dry after the swimming pool
There'll be time to just cry i wonder why it didnt work out
Therell be time to fish fry for letters by yours truly
Yours truly

Someone in my dictionary's up to no good
I never find the very special words I should
So I have another party with a water glass
and I sit on all your actions its a birthing game
and I'll bet he needs a shower cause hes just like me
and the soldiers in the painting know your secret face
Well your parrot told me just how I can make you smile
Gonna let you do your thinking if you need awhile
but what I gave you made him get mad
A little bit funny how a thing like that
Could travel from one mouth in through another
and the next thing you know you gotta hear it from your brother and
The words they sting like a stump of old wasps
Remember when I said go throw the rock in there
and we ran through the woods to our good house
You forgot about the things that he could say like
I dont think that I like you anymore
Well I found new feelings at the feeling store
and I cant find you at our kissing place
and im scared of those new pair of eyes you have

So I duck out and go down to find the swimming pool
Hop a fence, leave the street and wet my feet I'll find a swimming pool
Cause when I'm snuffed out I doubt I'll find a swimming pool
Hop a fence, leave the street and wet my feet I'll find a swimming pool

But I don't wish that I was dead
A very old friend of mine once said
that either way you look at it you have your fits
I have my fits but feeling is good
confusions not a kiddney stone in my brain
but if were miscommunicating do we feel the same?
Then either way you look at it you have your fits
I have my fits but feeling is good

You gotta give a little you gotta get a little bit

The turns you had to take still keep you awake Down come the walls where you once stood From constant changes you have made Youll keep inside til you have a say We change as we get older Were not to stay The days we walked are over Now we just drive away From everything I know Youre counting days on the back of your hands You turn the pages til you have no more plans The only time you had to think of all the things involved Came when you were least expecting And now its up to us to replace it To tell us when ages have made a difference Cause changes tell just who we are We change as we get older Were not to stay The days we walked are over Now we just drive away From everything I know Youre counting days on the back of your hands You turn the pages til you have no more plans Now were just miles away From all that we could be Youre counting days on the back of your hands We turn the pages Remember the days youve counted wont be forgotten I hope you wont leave yourself out When we turn the pages THERE FOR TOMORROW
