most of the time

you see the song is in me
and it grows in the back of my head
and when it's in the light of day
you can breathe it in and know what i meant
you wear a worry on your sleeve
and it draws me into your switch and bait
a critical bit of clay that you mold into a regular day
most of the time our love grows at an incredible rate
but since the divide
my life's been put on hiatus
come catch my sound when it's guilty
you wanna know why i'm feelin' so bad
you see a real lack of empathy
no, i'm no in trouble today
most of the time our love grows at an incredible rate
but since the divide my life's been put on hiatus
you seem to rely on the shows that i just don't wanna play
but now it's alright to say the things i wanted to say
you see the song's meant to be
and now it's thrown the room
the critical bit of clay
well i took it and threw it away
my cynical point of view
well i took it and threw it away
most of the time our love grows at an incredible rate
but since the divide my life's been put on hiatus
you tell me that i'm zonin' out again
and the words are runnin' off the page
yeah the paper's stackin' up
and i know i'm gonna run out of space
just so there's nothing left to say well i took em'
and threw em' away
you see the song's meant to be
and now it's thrown all around the room
that critical bit of clay well i took it
and threw it away
my cynical point of view
well i took it and threw it away

this month

i can't a won't be home this month .. oh no
but i will and want to ride back home
the scum is wrapping around me
cause when i dropped out
the world was filled with doubt
the sludge is wrapping around you
somewhere, someone is thinking all about you
cause when i found out
just how far you were down
i wrote a song to sing
and lost it in a drink
now your'e alone and i'm in trouble
drowning in the dream
i can't and won't be home this month.

what you doin'
03:51
|
|||
|
we can go, in the cold
to get stoned
and i left my phone at home.
and she's calling me for a date
we planned last week.
yeah, i know what you're thinkin'
i'm the bad one.
and me smokin' with my guys
in the car, in the park
when a cop rolls out from the dark.
we flip the lights, turn the radio off
hide the pipe, clean your eyes
and prepare for a ride, we're going no where tonight.
what you doin' boy with that
we can stamp it out if you're willing to let it go.
what you doin' boy with that
we can let it slip if you're willing to let it go.
you give up, i give up, and i lie
to get high again
when i tell you you're my best friend
you fuck around and fast forward a week
then we're kissin' on the street
and pretend traveling and make it all sad again.
what you doin' boy with that
we can watch it slip if you're willing to let it go.
we go on through the trial, it's alright.
and work around everything
and talk about anything
but then we're done.

locked in a cell
03:25
|
|||
|
i clocked out
and ran to house
you lost your head
and spun around
and i can't play
tonight that hard
on a road to burn out brightly
run around in hell
for better or for worse
but you cant even tell
i'm lost in Michelle
lost in my shell
i'm pickin' through the left over runs
and the back log - strummin' so hard to shine
cause you're in it
to ride the rails
and come to find out
you're back at the beginning
we hit it hard like we used to do
but you're on, and couldn't play it sober
now you're old and now it's over
i'm lost in Michelle for better or worse
it isn't hard to tell
i'm locked in a cell.
and i've been lookin' and there's nothing left to burn
tonight...
unless...
we cross the line.
we're on the way to hell
and who can get there first
it isn't hard to tell
i love you at your worst
i'm lost in my shell
and drinkin' in the dirt
it isn't hard to tell
locked in a cell.

ordinary ones
03:27
|
|||
|
shake off your trust you're out of sight
in an empty parking lot
draw out the memory of your life
and erase the thought of going home
it takes some ordinary ones
to break the spell
one life cycle to give in
to the resolute of giving up
its not a crime
roll in the filth
it sets you apart
and makes you feel alive.
so relish in yourself
so harmful to your family
when you crushed yourself under the weight
of all the bad things building up
your body died a soul stood up
shed the meaning of your life
help me out to remember you.
cause i'm gonna forget about it.
so i forget about it.

stone houses
03:09
|
|||
|
you always lived in stone houses
and also lived outside of them
you're lookin' for a goal
but all the good ones run and hide again
inside again.
break apart the ropes you wove so tight
and cross the stitches in and out of time again.
someone's gotta pull you upright
them looking at you in the eyes
but all the good ones run and hide again
inside again.
the hospital rate is so high
the pills are in your mouth and in your eyes
they'll pull and pry apart the wrong side
to put your mind back inside
your head that's prone to cryin'
they'll pry apart the wrong side.
you always lived in stone houses
so come inside again
looking for a god
but all the good ones run hide
inside again.
all the good ones run hide
inside again.

the meaning of the boyg
04:07
|
|||
|
trading days back and forth
swim and decide to stop.
holding on the railings of
a sinking ship.
i promise not to scratch you off
the bottom of the list.
i'm never gonna get that far.
any history you caused with me
is probably lost on me.
if i could have your help to find
the meaning of my life...
when all the wrong decisions are
so right for me.
to wonder who i truly loved
and how could i feel this way.
_______________
switching off old ideals
to sow and grow again.
you think i'm gonna figure out
the runaway memory
is here to stay, hid away.
and i ask you in dreams
"what is the meaning of the boyg?"
and how could i feel this way?

break you out
04:35
|
|||
|
they're gonna wheel you out the house
a shout spillin' out your mouth
it took a load of pain
to ride down that way
how can i break you out.
the news is pretty bad, alright
there's a missing spot in your sight
its gonna sink you down deep in the dark
how can i break you out
how can i break you out.
i come and visit when you're sick
on the inside of your eye lids
and they're ready now to you open you up
how can i break you out
how can i break out
how can i break out.
the lust and longing
and it grows at at an incredible rate
until the morning
see all is sunny
and i know it's gonna be okay.
there's some extra guilt you need
pour a little and let a word slip
it wouldn't show up right
to hold on so tight.
how can i break you out
how can i break you out.
the lust and longing
and it grows at at an incredible rate
until the morning
see all is sunny
and i know it's gonna be okay
if i wake up tomorrow.

calm enough
04:03
|
|||
|
you're up the corner store
lookin' down so sweet
and i'm lookin' at my feet
i can't rely on a girl
who's livin' life so meek
i'm tapered and lyin' through my teeth
and you're lying next to me
and lyin' back at me
you're chippin' away at the words lost
the ones you want the ones you want to say.
when you're calm enough to mean it
write it and read it back to me
and i come out to run around L.A.
and there's something you won't tell me
something you won't say
but i can put you in a bad mood.
just wish it away
drop a coin down deep.
and when you're calm enough to mean it
write it and read it back to me
then you're calm enough to mean it
chime out and turn your back on me
i set you down and for a minute i can breathe
but you're drownin' singing please
but i can't rely on a girl
who's living life so meek.
when you're calm enough to mean it
write it and read it back to me
then you're calm enough to mean it
chime out and turn your back on me
you could've given a minute
drink down and wash away the scene
then you're calm enough to mean it
chime out and back away, repeat.
