Mr. Giant

Hats off to the man who can touch his head
And choose his clothes
Sundays are for church and Saturdays are when he mows
They call him a giant, he reach for the sky
Oh Mr. Giant, please teach me to fly
Please oh pastor please tell me you know
About this on again off again
Child, he said to me, walk through this door
And we'll go on again off again
They call him a giant, he reach for the sky
Oh Mr. Giant, please teach me to fly
Telephone wires can outrace the sun
Oh Mr. Giant won't tell anyone

And she breaks her
She breaks her hand
And she leaves her
She leaves her bed
And she forgets
What it means to be wished for
And she forgets
What it means to be wanted
She remembers
What it means to be less than
And she gets it
She gets what we all can't
Though we all try
To want her, to need her
We're only starships in the sky
And she breaks her
She breaks her hand
And she leaves her
She leaves her bed
And she forgets
What it means to be wished for
And she forgets
What it means to be wanted
Look at these days
If they're numbered
I can't take many more
No she can't take many more
If they're offered
She may say thank you, no
If you want them
She may say have some more, I don't need them
There's nothing here that I would die for
And we all try
To want her
To need her
To reach her
We're only starships in the sky
And she breaks her
She breaks her hand
And she leaves her
She leaves her bed
And she forgets
What it means to be wished for
And she forgets
What it means to be wanted

Again
02:30
|
|||
|
I left a breadcrumb trail
So I'd forget the way back home
I saw the way your arms
They flailed above your head
And I can't wait
to see it again
I saw you in your skin
The freckles on your nose
And I can't wait to see it again

Oh my darling we've
Come too late this time
Close your eyes for me
Hold your hand to mind
Don't wait for me there
Oh my darling you've
Done us in this time
Tried for everything
Lost it in your lies
Don't wait for me there
Listen to the thing
Growing inside you
Feral Grand attain
It's a yes or no
Don't you lock up your
Dreams we'll save them yet
Just like mocking birds
Locked in such a bet
So don't wait for me there

Tidal Waves
03:42
|

|
When you look into the water
All you can think of is how to drown
When you look into the sky
All you can see is a long way down
But I can see that you're just hiding your
Bloody nails that you've been biting
I know what you're all about
I know what you are without
These tidal waves are telling me
the weary will fall to their knees
So stand up oh stand up oh stand up oh stand up
Only you will know how far you can go
Show me that you can stand up oh
stand up oh stand up oh stand up oh stand up
Your ashen face can clearly see your dishes pile up for weeks
your takeout food is on the floor,
a feast for ants your stomach mourns
Oh what a disability you sit and wonder what to be
The sun sets on another day and sprawled across the floor you stay
I know what you're all about
I know what you are without
These tidal waves are telling me
the weary will fall to their knees
So stand up oh stand up oh stand up oh stand up
Only you will know how far you can go
Show me that you can stand up oh
stand up oh stand up oh stand up oh stand up

Nascar
03:52
|

|
Loud calling speakers
It's a Nascar track proclaiming left turn, left turn, left turn, left her
You can stand on the edge with your hands on the wheel calling right turn, right turn
Hey there, get off the track yelling hey there,
Your signal's lost in the atmosphere drifting here and there calling right turn, right turn
There's a big cloud driving over you it's a big cloud raining down on you and you like it, why don't they like the water on you
There's a freeway, running down on you it's a lifeline, bleeding out on you and you like it. Why don't they like the darkness on you?
Skid marks always pave the way
Flakes of tire never save the day
Like feathers from a rotting bird
They only serve what once was heard
Fly away, fly away
Locked on their high beams like unblinking eyes
Synced in with yours as they sympathize
Harder you push as your car's shifting gears
You can stand on the edge with your hands on the wheel calling right turn, right turn
Hey there, you're in your head yelling hey there,
Your signal's lost in the atmosphere drifting here and there calling right turn, right turn
Skid marks always pave the way
Flakes of tire never save the day
Like feathers from a rotting bird
They only serve what once was heard
Fly away, fly away

Deep Sea Dumbo
04:06
|

|
Moving vans and pretty colors wasted on they eye
Unsuspecting victims, drowning by their own ties
Drawn to what is human, try to chart the course
Taken by the wanting, captured by choice
You can swim
Take the trinket monkey, take the trinket monkey, take the trinket monkey, take the trinket monkey
Tell me how to buy the color from your lips
Sold you hospice bills, sold you to your kids
Buy your coffin now, just like you bought your way in
Pirates of the hour, come to board your ship
Take the trinket monkey, take the trinket monkey, take the trinket monkey, take the trinket monkey

Time Of Death
04:18

|
Hunker down and betray your love, take me down into the dark. Tell me now what's on your lips. Take me into your abyss. Take your time but hurry up, my ticking clock it never stops. Loose your tongue and bite your lip and tell me my time
My time of death
My time, my time of death
Set me
Free, you're finally free. You're finally free you're finally free
Free, you're finally free. You're finally free you're finally free
Don't don't Don't d-Don't don't don't d-don't don't don't
Leave me too soon Please see me through to let me go I'll help you move on
Don't don't Don't d-Don't don't don't d-don't don't don't
Tell me I'm wrong I'm leaving soon so see me through please help me move on
Free, you're finally free. You're finally free you're finally free
Free, you're finally free. You're finally free you're finally free

I watch your gold as it spins across the room
Oh mother, what am I to do
All your life is a joke that's long past feeling out the room
Oh mother, what am I to do
You stock all your rainy days to find
Their sweet relief has left you far behind
