Basement Hum
05:12
|
|||
all this time i've spent underground
i forgot what the light looked like
all this time i've spent in my head
i forgot what you look like
was it something i said
something i wanted to
it's what you said
it's what you meant to do
halloween treats or anything sweet
don't excite me much anymore
reaching out from these paneled walls
the cries of yet another soul
it's what i meant
it's what i wanted to do
it's what you said
it's what you wanted to
it's what i want
it's what i can't explain
it's just real life
i've nothing left to say
longing for a fraction of a feeling
a connection of any sort
the hum of this room goes on with no end
i jump when i hear the door
what have i said
that others haven't yet
it's what we need
it's what we really want
it's what you know
it's what i tried to do
it's what you know
it's what i tried to do

Only In My Country
03:54
|

only in my country will i see a man put down
he's expecting nothing as he jogs all around
only in my country will a murder be allowed
only in my city and also every other town
the lights pull you over
you try to keep your will
only in your country
is this how you're killed
only in our country
only in our country
in a silent house a sleepy mother slowly cries
only in her country this is how her son dies
only with her color she is seen through their eyes
only in my country this is not a surprise
in danger in your backyard
in danger through your wall
only in your country
anywhere at all
only in our country
only in our country

If the Answer Is No
05:17
|
|||
could you ever have seen in me
that shine i saw in you
watching you float back downstream
the river i'm wading through
a slower feeling creeps up on me
and all i see is your face
watching old memories in my head
they flash by as quick as they can
before they're erased
and that little whispered voice says
i know you
i know you too well
have you ever thought of me
while gazing at the sky
watching all those clouds fly past
right before your eyes
will you ever understand
who you are to me
that's a silly question to ask
for the train will pass right by
it stops for no one, especially not me
through the window thought i heard you say
i want you
i need you with me
if the answer is no
will it still be tomorrow
could you always have known
and was it still yesterday

Chocolate Eclair

chocolate eclair
my old brain sees you everywhere
i know you're not there
but i can't help but stare
when i see you in my mind
sugar and spice
i related you with everything nice
but who am i kidding
the idea's not fitting
and reality escapes my eyes
i don't know what to do
moving backwards is all i know
all this time i've spent wasting
for things that could never show
it's out of love i keep my distance
someday we'll both find what the truth is
i remember your smile
i remember laying down for a while
but the past is gone now
the present is here
and the future's more our style
chocolate eclair
it's hard to believe you ever cared
it's said and done now
you'll move on somehow
and i will see you
i will see you
i'll see you in my dreams

Find Yourself
04:24
|
|||
you lie and sigh in a rotten bed
reflections pulsing through your head
once they're gone you're hoping it's all over
you find yourself in an unknown place
where everyone shows the same face
is this where you'll be when you get older
your friends have beat you in the race
you're stuck inside a finite maze
you can't turn back, the only way is forward
the walls are too high so you can't see
how they live successfully
you jump and jump but there's no getting over
find yourself a new song
hopefully it's not too long
before you're in a hole
all you've thought and all you've done is wasted now on everyone
there's no escape save for the end
there's no such thing as innocence
you think about a year that's passed
you wondered how you'd ever last
the years go by but they don't get any slower
your peers can hear but they don't retain
the information that keeps you sane
your mother's long forgotten what you've told her
on a bed you sense the end
a door creaks open from within
your only fear is being mediocre
all the places you'll never see
all the people you'd rather be
you find it difficult to keep composure
find yourself a new fate
hopefully it's not too late
before you're in the ground
your eyes can see you on your bed
your mind can't comprehend you're dead
a certain calmness in the room
but some of us had needed you to live

The Final Curtain Call
05:22
|
|||
feeling extra terrestrial once again
watching people move around
throwing words against the wind
going back to my home alone once again
at least i've got these guitars
and a couple of great friends
i'm grateful for what i've got
though i'm always searching for more
a loving face, a reassuring embrace
something i've never had before
my mother and father are children
with no real thought for their own
feeding themselves with no care for anyone else
i can't fault them, it's all that they've known
i haven't felt the words "i love you"
since before i could recall
i don't even know who "you" would be
but i'm saying it would be nice is all
i love where i am in life
i'm glad that i get to live
i've got so much more here to see
and so much left to give
i've had some brushes with intimacy
but it's too scary and foreign for me
so i retreat back and sing these songs
hoping for the turn of a new leaf
i try to be the best version of me
but i have no idea where to start
my mind is tangled up in all kinds of malaise
i'd just rather concentrate on my art
i love you all for listening
i love you if you exist
you're all superheroes to me
even if you don't feel it
i get better every day, at least i think i do
but sometimes it's hard to move along
so i'll take some time to pluck these strings
and form them into a song
i can't wait for the future
i'm certain that it will come
but for now i'm in the present
and i'll be here until i'm done
