From The Top
03:20

I can't remember why I wanted to start from the top
Can someone tell me why I never finish what I start
And I took it down, the wallpaper we put up days before your brother passed
Affection comes from 'round a tree, those cars weren't built to last
Fell out of touch too many times, your social status in decline. You clearly care because you feel it
I know that you are losing sleep, your toxic mindset's in between denial, anger, and resentment
Time after time
We bottle it up, we bottle it up
Time after time
we bottle it up, we bottle it up
It's so belated and you get by using social tricks,
You're introverted but you still pretend to be talkative
Head full of bourbon clears your clouds but it won't clear your eyes
Your time is ending ostracize your cup straight to your lips

Ride

Clean out your wallets from your visit to the pity bank
Cops and the robbers came to sip the torrid money lake
And I just wanna say that it's been a wild ride
Robbed of the chance to anesthetize the sick and week
Become the leech sucking the rosiness from both your cheeks
Become the fat pig eating every single scrap of meat
Go on a ride and think on your lies
Go on a ride to think on your lies
The melody, the melody is sitting there, it's unaware
The melody, the melody, is unaware you're sitting there
The melody, the melody, is sitting here you're unaware
Go on a ride and think on your lies
Go on a ride to think on your lies
Your lies, your lies, your lies, your lies, your lies...

Enough to be
03:12

Eight pairs of eyes are watching me
Maybe they can tell me what I'm supposed to be
Before you dyed my hair and taught me about love
Way back when something told me that wasn't enough
Will I ever be enough? Enough to be a man
Will I ever be enough? Enough to be a man
Save for you, they never told me how to live
So imagine my surprise when you up and fixed the quiet kid
We'll never know, oh we'll never know
Will I ever be enough? Enough to be a man
Will I ever be enough? Enough to be a man

People Are Strange

I saw you standing in the road on a foggy Tuesday night
With a glimmer in your eye and no clothes to wear in sight
I couldn't tell you why I was laughing at your nose
But as the truck came driving you said that's the way it goes
And I saw your little arms go up Into the air
Maybe a drunk driver but I couldn't really care
The smile in your eyes said you knew just where to go
Meet me under trees in the meadow
People Are Strange
People Are Strange
Can't dumb it down or let it loose
Your thoughts constrict my every move
Killed your brain to leave the hurt
Now you're dumb and letting loose
That LSD will make you smile
And reconnect just for a while
But chemicals will leave a stain
Leave you crumpled in the rain
People Are Strange
People Are Strange

Buy your clothes unable, to reconcile with things you left unsaid
Get with the motion
It's hard to see the time, inevitably running close to you
Is monopoly man here to stay?
Would you take a breath if you
Stopped to suck it in
Cry rivers for the rest
Thoughts you can't put to bed
It's hard to see the time, inevitably running close to you
Is monopoly man here to stay?
Can you take it slow?

Might Be Cocaine
03:44

You could say that I could go, you could say that I could go without
All this noise, it's getting warm. Analog is sticking to my brain
Purple skin and runny nose, old plum pits and apple cores
Come on it's a silly dream, ripened fruits can't come between
Thoughts of tinctures at your door, a feast for now or later on
It's safe to say
That you don't know what's in your brain
Nutrition's blurry to your eyes
Might be cocaine
Come to bed so I can know smoke and pills don't coat your throat
Who can see what's yet to come, I sure know you might be going away
And when it's sticking to your nose, the smell is clinging to your clothes then I'll know just how far away you'd go to make sure you can play
It's safe to say
That you don't know what's in your brain
Nutrition's blurry to your eyes
Might be cocaine

Teeth

I picked the wrong time to
call you petty and you knew
your skin was pale and wet
your eyes were green and gold
And I'm sorry for the words that settle in your bones
They're eating at your teeth, eroding underneath
And I think that I could find the will to love you right this time
And maybe I'm just high, but I think from time to time
Your face is on my clothes, in my mirror, on my door
Won't leave me alone, you won't leave me alone
Your teeth are falling teeth are falling teeth are falling out
And I can't see the sky above but I can tell that you aren't on the ground
I can't see the sky above but I can tell when you are not around
Now I'm crawling underneath my pillows and my sheets
Ears longing for your words, skin is jumping at the nerves
Remember the time we stole a box of wine?
I'll drink for you love, I'll drink for you love
Your teeth are falling teeth are falling teeth are falling out
And I can't see the sky above but I can tell that you aren't on the ground
I can't see the sky above but I can tell when you are not around

It Comes And Goes

Why are you scared of looking down? White gauze and bandages won't stay
Can't chalk it up to your beliefs, or I'd wind up another leech
It comes and goes, it comes and goes
[I was gonna say, before practice, we should go to the beach 'cuz it's hella nice out. So pick up your phone you piece of shit. Bye.]
And when the sun goes down do you return to where you belong?
And I can't count how many times you've heard the words, you've heard the words
Your belly aches but you can't feel the nerves, feel the nerves
It comes and goes, it comes and goes

Waltz For The Dodo

Oh my love you've got so much to learn
Gazing through blurry eyes, sprawled on the floor of your room
You know he won't think of it, blissfully tuned out from you
Is it ironic that you still miss how he looked at you?
But the eyes in your walls ever cared enough to learn your name
Chose their words carefully: "Make love" not "fuck out your brains"
Just take it slow, take it slow, take it slow, just take it slow, don't leap before you know
Don't worry your mind about losing your balance, we all fall soon enough
And it's hard to find closure when radio silence pools around your ears
But the eyes in your walls ever cared enough to learn your name
Chose their words carefully: "Make love" not "fuck out your brains"
Just take it slow, take it slow, take it slow, just take it slow, don't leap before you know
