Caterpillar Girl
Hit me like a kick to a thickening gut
The beat has gone beaten me up
No one's gonna lift me out of this rut
The groove has gone ground me to dust
I'm knocking on the wrong cocoon
Spun another web of lies
Crack And EmergeI nearly die could see her soul
Through all of her anger and pain
Half of my life waiting for her
To crack and emerge
But i stood by her, Held on so tight
But she took it for granted in time
Pushed me away, thought i would stay
But i cracked and emerged
Gravitatewhat are you doing over there
did we just talk about sensation
then you walk in wrapped in a towel
one almost answered invitation
i'm way more trouble than i'm worth
don't you be sinking in my quicksand
we're lucky nobody got hurt
Holding Back The YearRolling from your brat sarcastic eye
A California tear, a drop of gold
Maybe you were cold, yeah, so was I
Holdin' back
Holdin' back the year
The year before the poison took its toll
Made you paper thin, me - wrinkled, old
Eventually, yeah, finally it caught up
Imagined LifeMy blood ran hot, I turned to liquid
The day I held your hand in mine
It happened so slowly
Then there wasn't any time
You held the air between us carefully
The season turned behind the wheel
And i became what you believed me to be
LegendaryI know there'll come a day I understand
Until then i'll be trying to solve your mystery
And wonder why I couldn't make you stay
Smiling through denial – my specialty
I thought that was a good thing for a while
You gave me all your secrets were you testing me?
How could I do anything but smile?
Not Nice To Be NiceYou know it's not nice to be nice
Every act of kindness surely carries its price
I've never really been that kind
Thought I meant to make it straight from the heart
Starve the hate and now it's ripped me apart
I'll stay inside for awhile
First to know the sickness of doubt
Drop it for dead when you figure it out
Yawning Blue MessiahHey to the blue messiah
Thought of you once again
Too bad we're only human
Too bad we can't be friends
I miss you brother but I hate your guts
Whatever inside you made me regret what was
I know the world's on fire I know this is the end
