Slow Burn
04:05
|
|||
lay low,
split another cigarillo
empty it, let me roll
slow burn, last me for another while now
another midnight cruise,
fusing with an empty highway
suddenly it all falls sideways
no use stressing over someone's point of view
I walk around in circles as I watch my life waste away
before my own two eyes
I always thought I've had it all figured out by now,
how to live within my own disguise
another hour or more,
spot a poor soul on the roadside
slipping right into my eyes
don't look, there's nothing much I can do but ignore
I walk around in circles...
lay low,
split another cigarillo
empty it, let me roll
slow burn, last me for another while now

What We Are
03:07
|

Becoming less
will we have more?
Morning rise won't come so bright, so white.
I'll have it all
(We are what {we are) what we got}
The door's not there
when I've turned the lock,
lost in what we dreamed to be empty
just like light
Could care less
Could care for
for miles and miles
it's alright
I've had it now
(We are what {we are) what we got}

Tea Leaves and Telepathy
03:33
|
|||
I think I learned my lesson the first time around
So I won't paint my face no more now
I see you there when you don't know where I am
The foot will drop when you thought you had the upper hand
The upper hand, I've got the upper hand
Got the upper hand, how did I do that?
Tea leaves, telepathy...
The tea leaves say you can't seduce me, you cannot use me today
Tea leaves, telepathy
I think you taught me best when you dragged me along
You said "this will make you stronger..."
I keep it up and get beaten up again
The axe will fall after it all so just be a man
The upper hand, I've got the upper hand
Got the upper hand, how did I do that?
Tea leaves, telepathy...

Please Don't Fall Apart
03:06
|
|||
please don't fall apart
just try to hold it together for now
forget what they told you
you've grown up anyhow
either way, on Lonely Boulevard,
you're seeing in the dark.
please don't fall apart.
we could take control
no more living on auto pilot, and no more flat fantasy
beyond ultraviolet
is everything you'll see
either way...

Do and Don't Leave Alone
03:24
|
|||
you've been kinder only since I've traveled
while I've been gone, and you've been gone
for just a little while
a while is what I'd count as time
but my seams keep breaking
why don't I feel like feeding my strays?
they back away; it's not the same
without stress, and expressing everything.
expressing everything
expressing everything
expressing everything...
take me home
do and don't leave alone

Stop This
04:38
|
|||
I see my mornings dripping onto themselves
as if water's just days escaping my well
and that always drives me home
and that won't leave me alone.
I just want to stop this feeling
I sense my hours crawling all on their own
where did my weeks run off to, I wouldn't know
and you had to drive yourself
and you only drove around
I just want to stop this feeling
I drive myself senseless until I am blind
but now lost is the only way I can find
home, anyway that I steer
oh, I admit to myself, well I'm already here

Soul Camera
02:09
|
|||
soul camera,
mind's eye,
takes a picture,
black and white lie
heart canvas,
blood brushstrokes,
you left this, but
I don't take no photos no more
it's in sepia tone
what's done is done
sex organ,
I want music
chords touching
but it's useless
soul camera,
mind's eye,
takes a picture,
fat lie
I don't take no photos no more...

Endless Soul
04:18
|
|||
a river courses
through a place they might not know
call it home
October (it's getting cold)
the same songs take us back home
endless soul,
part of home is part of whole
gentle the horses,
know when to let them go
but make it home
November (it's getting colder)...
paso las noches
con algo que solo tengo yo
solo yo
December (it's so cold)...
