Prelude - Me Through You
03:52

I'm so terrified of being alone
but I need more time to myself
most nights I'm alone in my bed
and I'm always alone in my head
So I spent the night in drinkin
listenin to some favorite records at home
soon enough my mind it starts to wander
I get sad until I get stoned
Lately I don't know myself
she's bad for my health I can see that
but I couldn't give a shit
I'm just trying to get over it
Starry eyes reflect starry skies
drunken conversations in the grass
spilling out my soul and all its worries
you tell me the hard times don't last, but how do I know?
How can I guarantee it
when all my choices seem out of my control
when she calls me how can I deny her
I need heart to fill in the holes
See what I crave is a little of you
to look through and see myself
I've been searching my head too
but all I find is a crowded shelf
full of look-at-me's and things undone
I feel undone, I feel undone!
That's isolation, put a gun to my brain and say
"Wake up, wake up, wake up!"
The world is outside not in your mind,
and the answers true they are within,
but not in me
not in me
not in me
no I am looking for me through you

Nightshift
04:06

I've been workin the nightshift
watchin the red shift of that crazy star your on
wondering where you'll light down
or whether you'll burn out
bright enough to see it from my car
But I'm tired of being tied and bound
yes I'm tired of being around
lately I feel so trapped between
what everybody else want me to be
and what I've felt for some time is right for me
and I know we only play a part
but sometimes, sometimes
It's nice to pretend
get a little lost in my head.
Who am I to say who I'm supposed to be
if I don't even understand what I mean when I say me
only questions give you truth
only ask and you are free
The dashboard lights have been flickerin
this body feels lived in
things burn out quicker than we expect
calculated obsolescence of my adolescence
like a ship that's built to wreck
But give me time
give me time, I still need some peace of mind
barely grown in my father's home
he tried to wrap my heart in stone
but I never forgot you can't make it on your own
and I'm doin what I can to be a man
but sometimes, sometimes
I still like to pretend
get a little lost in my head.
Who am I to say who I'm supposed to be
if I don't even understand what I mean when I say me
only questions give you truth
only ask and you are free
It's nice to get a little
lost in the good nights in the middle of the dark
caught in the headlights, animals at heart
tell me all your worries, show me where you're hiding
in your head

I Won't Love You Always
02:23

I won't love you always
we both know that
but I don't believe I should be sorry
for what I can't change within myself
I'm an arrogant son of a bitch I'll admit
but I'm sorry nonetheless
and I still love you for now
So let's not talk about the ways
people fall out of love
because it's just like givin up.
I don't wanna talk about the future
no I don't give a damn about the future if you're still here,
what the hell is the use anyway?
what's the use
what's the use
what's the use
I still love you

A Death In The Family
06:29
|

|
Woke up this morning not quite sober
quite hungover like a tired lover
do not come over, I'm not ready yet
Last night I drank away all my trouble
got myself seeing double
I know I'm out of touch but don't fill me in
It's been a long week
a death in the family, emotional atrophy
mother I miss you, I wish you were close to me
explain how such a bright flame could just fade away
bullshit people like to say, at least she's not in pain
can the family say the same?
can the family say the same?
can it stay the same
You burnt out while I was out
I left home without a doubt
I'd see you in 4 weeks time, or thereabouts
I can't remember your favorite song
so I hope this one don't come off wrong
but I need some way to cope now that you're gone
I'll miss those nights when I'd stop by
for a kinder word from a twinkling smile
sadness never hung around your home too long
And lately I feel in need of that
a little smile a little laugh
to get my mind off of everyone that ain't comin back
It's been a long summer
I know I've got good friends who say that they love me
but do they know me like the ones that have left me?
does it even matter, does it even matter?
oh I wish I had answers but I've got only questions too
how could you leave me like this?
how could you leave me like this?
thought we were friends

Happiest I've been in weeks
rose red rush into your cheeks
if I tell you you're all I need
tell me would you cry when you leave
Pick out all my favorite records
get me high and play them backwards
father john stole all the good words
so I'll just let him speak for me
Baby I got the car back
hurry up and paint your nails black
I've got some courage in my knapsack for the way back
Baby played guitar back
in high school bands with half stacks
now she does surgery and me I can't keep intact
Last cigarettes
finish up don't hold your breath
take one last drag on death
before the singer sings the rest
Sit here next to me
see what you can't see on the t.v.
kids singin poesy and heresy
tell us how it is and how it could be
Could be better
tell us how it could be
could be better
tell us how it could be
could be better
tell us how it could be
could be better
tell us how it could be
I could be better
I'll admit but I can take a hit
spent too much time bein sad about things lately
Unfettered, barely better
than I was before
but at least I picked myself up off the floor
so darlin let's make our way back towards the door
