Anyway

so many visions running through my head
I wonder why I can't see anymore
the light from the sun has blinded me
and the sound of her voice has deafened me
I cant love you anymore
I cannot see
what you meant to me
just open your eyes
I mean what I say
I guess I am sorry now but what can I say
you're gonna leave anyway
like the sun I will fade away
with nowhere left to go
I cannot see
what you meant to me
just open your eyes
I mean what I say

if now was then I'd hold your hand
the sky would open up and take us in
things changed so fast I could not see
just what the ƒuck was wrong with me
on another world where we're still friends
my thoughts are clear not crowded in
I wouldn't make the same mistakes again
I wouldn't be the jerk that I still am
if I had the chance to do it all again
I'd tell you all the things I never said
all the feelings I could not understand
everything that I'm still holding in
my wishes are still unfulfilled
I wonder if they ever will
come true someday somewhere somehow
and strip away the fear I feel right now

a spot of sun on a carpet floor
I'm alone again
in a quiet room where there's no noise
I see pictures with happy faces
I wish I was like them
happiness that would never end
but instead I'm alone
in this room once again
I wish I could be like them
but i know it's not our end
no one listens and no one cares
about what I say anyway
in this room you once sat
now you look down from above
like the pictures on the wall
you were always so full of love
I wish I could be with you
but I know that it's not my time
no one listens and no one cares (la la la la la la la)
About what I say anyway (la la la la la la la)

we cry, we make time fly
best friends or are we
forever
forever
they stare from behind closed doors
never ask them why
we're here
we're all stuck inside
a picture
in a broken frame
from a bird's eye view
when the thought comes
I'll bite my lip
corner of my mind
unspoken words mean nothing
gonna take a walk outside
a cold wind blows
and I don't feel anything at all
a picture
in a broken frame
from a bird's eye view
when the thought comes
I'll bite my lip
from the corner of my mind
a picture
in a broken frame
from a bird's eye view
when the thought comes
I'll bite my lip
corner of my mind

if I fall out on you
would you turn and walk away from me
and if you said you don't care
then I guess you were never there
and if tomorrow never comes
would you be there for me
all I really want to know
is would you still hold on me
would it be all right to say
I'm fighting this in my own way now
and I am just a shadow on the wall
hiding from the light of you
would it be all right to say
I'm fighting this in my own way now
and I am just a shadow on the wall
hiding from the light of you
really doesn't matter anymore
what I say or what I do
I have still fallen away
from where I want to be
would it be all right to say
I'm fighting this in my own way now
and I am just a shadow on the wall
hiding from the light of you

Wake (4-Track Demo)

put it all off
live a life on hold
call it all to be announced
have a laugh at the rain
in all honesty
I feel strangely good today
it's unreal (3x)
remember waking up
to toast and eggs
still dream of waking up
someday
someday
in all honesty
I feel strangely good today
it's super real (3x)
good morning reality
good morning
good morning reality

in some other life
I'll have a different face
I'll flip the world over
tear you down
and then i'll take yr place
'cause this time
I'm not ƒucking around
this time
there won't be a body found
this time
I've got a plan
'cause they'll all come
from miles around
to shake my dying hand
help
in some other life
I'll wear a different face
I'll break the world open
tear you down
and then i'll take yr place
'cause this time
I'm not ƒucking around
this time
there won't be a body found
this time
I gotta plan
this time
I'll be a man

I Give Up (4-Track Demo)
02:15
|
|||
|
I'm sure I'll see you around
and when I do
I'm pretty sure that
we'll both look at the ground
it makes me hate myself
more than I think you'll ever know
to see the stupid animal inside is taking over
when I gave in
I gave it all I had
I guess it's time
I give up
I've said all this stuff before
nothing's any different
'cause it's just hurting more and more
I can waste away
in a private hall of mirrors
as long as I've got ears and hands
and half a brain
when I gave in
I gave it all I had
I guess it's time
I give up
I give up

and what's there left to sing
there is no sun today and
i don't know what or how to play
no one hears it anyway
and i know
i know there's gonna be
i know there's gonna be
people leaving if i stay
weather changing everyday and
ears plugged up when i play
but that's ok
and here comes my friend the crow
he's my only friend you know and
he just sits there in his tree and
he just sits there looks right back at me
and i know
i know there's gonna be
i know there's gonna be
no crows up in the tree and
phone calls from family and
frozen engine fluids possibly
cause winter's almost here
and i know she's gonna leave
and i know i'll think poor me
and to top it all off there's gonna be
people laughing at not with me
and lots of self-sympathy and
and not enough gaasoline and
and
and it'll all be ok next week

Gordy + the Worms
03:10

gordy'd always warn me
gordy always knew
walk down to the river
there's nothing else to do
gordy'd always tell me
boy you'd better hide
soon they're gonna come by
and they don't waste their time
gordy haskell's father
would listen for the trains
and gordy's only brother
never got a name
gordy'd always tell me
gordy always knew
then they found him floatin'
face down cold and blue
gordy's floatin'
wasn't in the news
maybe i'll get out of here
maybe i can learn
maybe i'll get lucky
'fore i'm livin' with the worms
gordy
gordy
and the worms

Hovering (4-Track Demo)
03:22
|

|
a copperman inside his circle says
"pick me up"
"pick me up"
he doesn't mean a thing by it but he says
"good luck"
something in the air around us
something in the clouds
rollin' in
something in between the lines here
something in the clouds
hovering
the well's run dry
and it's just like
someone dying alone
in a hospital bed
something in the air between us
something in the clouds
rollin' in
something in between the lines here
something in the clouds
hovering

I've been to the future
it's not all that great
I'd rather live here
'cause all that can wait
the roads are all underground
the movies are free
but the walls all have headaches
and there aren't any trees
I'm living in a lightbulb
I'm losing my mind
the sweetest dilemma
has happened this time
I'm stuck in a snowglobe
I don't wanna leave
the sweetest dilemma
I'll ever see
and whatever happens
just does
I want to believe in something
just once
just once
just once
