a bug bite
a loose tooth on a string
a storm cloud
backdrop in every dream
the flashflood
is catching up to me
I'm driving fast
and all the lights are green
I promise to catch you
before we hit the ground
and if you look right behind you
I'm hid in the lost and found
all this
I've bargained for and tossed
a fairy tale
a blanket of moss
I promise to catch you
whenever you come down
and if you look right behind you
I'm here in the lost and found

Fallen Away
01:54
|
|||
|
if I fall out on you
would you turn and walk away from me
and if you said you didn'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
it doesn't really 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

I Give Up
02:17
|
|||
|
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 heard all this stuff before
nothing's any different
'cause it's just hurting more and more and more and 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
when I gave in
I gave it all I had
I guess it's time
I give up
I give up

Spoken Thoughts
03:23
|
|||
|
we cry, we make time fly
best friends or are we
forever
they stare from behind glass 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
in the 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
in 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
in the corner of my mind

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
and whatever happens
just does
I want to believe in something
just once

Too Personal
02:27
|
|||
|
if now was then I'd hold your hand
the sky would open up and swallow us in
things changed so fast I could not see
just what the hell was wrong with me
on another world 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've been 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

Is It Gonna Rain Today?
02:04
|
|||
|
so many different colors around
reminds me of how I look today
wondering why I always change
everyone else seems to stay the same
I ask myself why
I change every day
and I wonder
is it gonna rain today?
is it gonna rain today?
been hanging around this place too long
just wanna get back where I belong
box me up and ship me home
by the way can I use your phone?
I ask myself why
I change every day
and I wonder
is it gonna rain today?
I ask myself why
I change every day
and I wonder
is it gonna rain today?

Hovering
02:44
|
|||
|
a copper man inside his circle says
"pick me up"
he doesn't mean a thing by it but he says
"good luck"
through it all i'm still crazy
something in the clouds
rollin' in
there's something in the air between us
there's something in the clouds
hovering
the well's run dry
and it's just like...

Wake
03:52
|
|||
|
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 unreal (3x)
good morning reality
good morning
good morning reality

Almost There (OK)
04:22
|
|||
|
and what's there left to say
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 sing
oh
but that's ok
and here comes my friend the crow (caw caw)
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 a job at micky d's
and not enough gaasoline and
and a foot of snow on halloween and
and it'll all be ok next week
goodnight...
