For Here Or To Go

I'm still here so I wait for you to come back someday I wonder what you might say if you could see what we became the secrets we promised to keep the night horizon kissed the sea i passed the test fell down the chute lost a friend gave away the boots take the show on the road I knew and now I know times goes by so slow for here or to go

I Come Apart

I come apart baby bit by bit
I come apart as easy as a candlewick gets lit
I come apart so sorry to say
I come apart each and every single day
My mind is weak but my back is strong
I can make the nicey-nice all night long
Fill up your neediness
Another cup of want
With my grin I’m feeling like an idiot savant
I come apart there ain’t no shame
Everyone I know holds their share of the blame
I come apart at the breastbone and the throat
My castle’s crumbling, lost into the moat
I come apart, darling, split just like a vest
A set of vestments on a sinner’s chest
Cracks are forming, light shines through
I come apart just at the thought of you

My Big Mouth
02:33
|

lost inside
the sugar cave
need to hide
my thoughts away
need to find
my thoughts a place
just one thing
feels good to me
but its no good
to think that way
every time i think to say
2nd guess double check the way
crossed the line once again
spoke too soon & lost a friend
on the phone or on the call
always my foot in my mouth
Won’t hear me complain
Underneath Duct tape
We remove all doubt
Me & my big mouth
between the pages
of my mind
plain as day
for you to find
ive made mistakes
its fair to say
ive said too much
thats just my way
the way they raised
us up from dirt
taught me how
to use my words
then later on
out came my voice
shaky at best
at worst just noise
now its me
without the boys
just carnations
bombs deploy
made to rust
my just desserts
insatiable lust imagined hurt

Sophisticated

That girl's sophisticated I mean it looks like she knows how to dress that girl's sophisticated next to you oh honey you know I'm a mess
She's the sweet seductress and he's the deceiver he might make it out ok but you know he'll never leave her when she bounces like a bunny it'll give you a fever she's the sender baby who'll be the receiver

Roots
04:29
|

(Darling for so long where there were one set
of footprints i carried you from the desert
what kind of thanks is my children's distance
ice forms around me please dont feel sorry
there are two things we share roots and wings
I fly so far away from you the wings turn to roots)

Richard III
15:32
|
|||
You be the dog and I’ll be the street and
You can lose your mind when you walk all over me
I can bite back just like 1,2,3
You be the dog and I’ll be the street
You be the spider and I’ll be the fly
You spin a web and decide when I die
And you bite off my head and suck out my eyes
You be the spider and I’ll be the fly
You be the couch and I’ll be the chair and
I’ll be over here and you’ll be over there and
We’ll sit around like furniture, inert it’s only fair
You be the couch and I’ll be the chair
(I am Richard The Third; I’m the worst you ever heard)
