keep in mind
i wrap these special memories in twine
to kill time
though u pray to ur own demons
u are blind
and ull see
just try and cut me open
and ull see
all my glory
though u preach a humble sermon
u believe
and ull see
just try and cut me open
and ull see
all my glory
though the gates are held wide open
u retreat

World of Color
02:27
|
|||
|
sometimes i think i am a
little bit of a new kind
of people in the world
a world of color
furled up at my feet a thumbless
vagabond lonesome gentile
so beautiful and strange
a world of color
is to us
is to me at least
i killed a cat with
curiosity of the third kind
i do not know for sure
if id feel better
hurled up with the stars or here
among the fond emptyish smiles
so beautiful and strange
in my world of color

Friends
02:27
|
|||
|
friends are better in the dark
turn off the lights and play with me
deep in the trenches
i heard gunshots
oh a familiar sound
friends are better in the dark
turn off the lights and pray with me
deep in the trenches
i heard
oh what a beautiful sound

School
04:05
|
|||
|
i couldnt go to school
i was waiting for the train
but the voices never came
and never will again
the clock struck out that night
and all my dreams were wet n wild
i couldnt keep it cool
i was foaming at the mouth
but the words would not come out
and never will somehow
the clock struck out that night
and all my dreams were wet n wild

Games
01:58
|
|||
|
lets play
games in the parlor
with mother and father
my mommas a martyr
and daddys a doctor
puts pills in his water
to make him feel smarter
lets stay
home for the winter
till we choose a winner
a sissys a sinner
and what is for dinner?
were all growing thinner
the lights growing dimmer

Afraid
02:17
|
|||
|
i know its fine to be
afraid of the dark
of the dogs in the park
or a true work of art
but i dont want to fear
all the stuff i hold dear to me
i know its fine to be
afraid of true love
of what happens above
or below i dont know
but i dont want to fear
all the ones i hold dear to me
i think its fine to be
afraid of the stars at night
or when your parents fight
or of the words you write

Dear God
02:00
|
|||
|
dear god
make me a frog
so I can leap
out of this human
catalogue
dear god
make me a dog
I will answer
when you call
make my brain small
please check your mailbox
how come we dont talk?
you've been a stranger
make me a savior
silent and kind
with big blue eyes
to comfort me
please check your mailbox
maybe my mails lost?
stuck in the manger
is that my savior?
a guiding light
to take me home
tonight
dear god
make me a bird
so I can fly
far far away
from here

Never Going Back
01:39
|
|||
|
i am never going back
to your house
youve been stressing me out
though you care for me
and are there for me
sometimes
ill be fine
i am never going back
to your grave
till i learn to behave
though you cared for me
and were there for me
sometimes
ill be fine

Anything
03:31
|
|||
|
i feel like a bummer
could reverse i guess
lets get higher
than anything at all
i feel like im dumber
its the drugs i guess
lets get by
without anything at all
lets get by
without anything
wheres my world of color?
its been lost for days
lets get high
set our worriments ablaze
what about my savior?
hes an hour late
lets get by
without anyone to praise
lets get by
without anyone
lets get higher
than anything
