- A Satisfactory World For Reasonable People
Saw you dancing on TV
Lick the glass, you notice me?
I'm in bed with my touch screen
Extra bright and extra clean
Breathe in, aluminum smell of skin
Leaving, I don't like the world we're in
Meet me underneath the white hot din
- Bonhomie
8am is stifling
Re-acclimate to human, alien ways left flittering behind
Eyes rolled to the sky, sex pulled to the sky, fears told to the sky
Had a dream you dissect me, strip me down
Make sure I’m clean, but I feel unclean
Rubber gloves round my skull base, peel the skin back, reshape my face
You say I look better this way
- Burden You
I wanna burden you. I wanna burn in you. Weeks are more fleeting than spring. Somehow my days keep draggin'. I want your summers salty skin. Without yours, mine is wearing thin. I Carved your name into a tree. It scarred the same as it did me. Follow me home between my sheets and mend the burden in me. And I want you. But I don’t want to. I’ll never say I loved you. Because you know I still do. I’ll always think of your lips. When I’m movin' mine against his. I wanna know I wanna know. That I’m burning in your mind also. Don’t let me go don’t let me go. I’m your burden--you’re mine to swallow. I wanna burden you. I wanna burn in you. I wanna burden you. I wanna burn in you. And I want you. But I don’t want to. I’ll never say I loved you. Because you know I still do. I’ll always think of your lips. When I’m movin' mine against his. I wanna know I wanna know. That I’m burning in your mind also. Don’t let me go don’t let me go. I’m your burden-- You’re mine to swallow.
- Coca Cola
Drinkin' coca coca cola.
Drink enough and I don't know ya.
I'll quit if you do.
I'll quit everything good for you.
And, I'm trying.
Yeah, I'm trying.
- Dogwalk
I get lost with you.
I dogwalk with you around the block.
I get by with you.
I get high with you best I can.
I'd do anything to make you feel.
I wanna cry with you.
- Euclid
You found my hair around
One of your fingers
Fell loose the first night
You moved your mouth against mine
I’ve got a ring too
I’ve got a ring too
Been gone for weeks
- Ever Green
Lately I’ve been thinking
I need a change of scenery.
It’s not the city’s too small,
I’m just sick of you knowing me.
It’s not the same as when
time alone was good enough.
- Flower Girl
I've been looking in the dark
For a place to hide my heart
And it's killing me.
I forgot forgot forgot
The world isn't just a thought
And it's killing me.
Be my flower girl.
- Hole Away
I would die for you but don't think much of it.
Cause I would die for me too and won't think much of it.
Just give me an excuse and don't think much of it.
We can't be young forever
And we can't stay free together.
If heaven is a home and a pretty face,
- Hollow Body
You live in the back of my throat
Folded up there
A memento
Your scent
Your memory
Muted and momentary
Heavy
The smell of sleep
- Honey Pot
Found with a hand in the pot. Palms full. Everything got. Gold skin on a summer’s eve. Shed tees and white teeth. I’ll take what I want. I’ll concede to all my faults. Dirty jeans and tongues pretend to talk. I won’t feel guilty when you kiss me. Love is malleable and it bends like a body. Legs wrapped around me. The Gated Garden is a myth I can’t conceive. And I know where I’ll sleep. Honey pot. I’ll take what I want. I want.
- Keep
Keep my heart cuz I don’t want it back. And keep my hand cuz I was born for that. It’s been a long 12 months and I’ve been living around just fine. But if you’d hear me out tonight. Just give it a try. Maybe it’s been too long and I should let go. Just say my good byes. But if you’d forget that winter I’d give you my life. You know I’ve never been the type. Afraid to die. It’d be for nothing if I couldn’t say I tried. I’d regret everything if you thought you left my life. I’ve been alone a while. Still want you back by my side. I’ll understand if you would rather leave me behind.
- Pin a Star
Have I been good?
Have I been strong?
Pin a star
Won't take long
Time can be so cruel
Steal my youth
Soothe my wounds
- Plum
My mother loved the summer. But not for the weather. She loved the midseason plums. June, July, August sweet ones. My father kept them plenty. Always stocked in our pantry. Some ripe and some well past peak. ' Till she was too sick to eat. Still at my childhood home. The only home that I've known. I spent her last few weeks there. Watching her fade and wither. I know what I should have done. I should have buried those plums. Somewhere they wouldn't be found. Let them turn pits in the ground. So he wouldn't have to watch them wilt too. Cause My mother died in mid-June. And I knew, oh I knew. He couldn't look at the fruit. No he would just let them prune. My mother died in mid-June. And I knew, oh I knew. That day my father died too.
- Sedated
Don’t get out much
Keep falling in love
The suggestion of sun
Lips gone numb
Upstairs bedroom
Air is stuffy
Space is nothing
- Smoke Screen
Left the blanket on the roof
In the morning it’s wet
Your eyes are green and dewy
In a few days you’ll be gone
You’re so easily lost
Burnt your scent into my throat
I can taste you
- When You're Around
How did I get so depressed?
I wasn't born like this.
But when you're around
I'm bored and faking it.
Yeah, when you're around
I'm stoned and full of shit.
Your sweet nothing
- Wind Up
Don't come too close
Don't try to know me
Cause there's nothing to know
Wind me up and let me go
Wind me up and let me go
I've got a headache again
