Killing Time
Don’t ever ask me why
I've gotta go now
And please don’t follow
Everything’s gonna be just fine
There’s no mistake
Everything’s gonna be okay
Now feel the light that’s shining down on me
And I am blind, I will find
I’m a better man now.
Curtains
You gave it all to me, I gave it all to you
You gave it all to me, I gave it all to you
Maybe now you’ll just stay gone
Maybe then it could be
For all the time and all the space I need
And I am blind, I will find
I’m a better man now
You gave it all to me, I gave it all to you
You gave it all to me, I gave it all to you
Killing time on the flip side
Run away from today
So save a time and save a space for me
And I am blind, I will find
I’m a better man now.
Sunny San Diego
Another change of scenery
A yellow background with a little hint of green
Water flowing all around
Washing away how things used to be
Could never stray too far away
From the place where it rains lemonade
When everything’s too far away to see
You gotta keep on running
Running from the shore
Yellow is a friend of mine
The camels in the park have all become my pets
And won’t you let me tell you?
I find my name in all the signs
The sun is never lost
And I think I understand most everything
It only rains on Tuesdays; the farmer’s never broke
He just keeps planting more
Well I’m standing with a taller presence
And I’m not what anyone expected
So why don’t you leave an open space for me on your side of the tracks?
And not just one, but everyone
There ain’t no turning back
Car
Hello. Far away, I’d wondered when you’d come
I’ve been here today and gone before I was done
I know patience sails away in minute two
So I’ll tread my way back waiting here for you
I’ve given everything I had
To keep from falling to my death
I’d give it all if I had one small chance
To find out where I belong
Oh no! I fucked up again so there what can I say
I’m young, but too old for this, I wish I had my day
What’s wrong? Everything. I wonder what’s wrong with me
Don’t know anything, am I falling from my tree?
Mother Ignorance
Where are we headed?
We have wandered farther than we should
Who are our leaders?
And why do they put themselves above?
What is the reason for?
All this terror and the pain?
Why are the lonely forced to
Find their lives again?
When it’s all better will it be the end?
Will we exist or will we die again?
We can’t find the answers to what you want to see
Nor will we remember what we came to be.
Why don’t we listen?
We shut out the world everyday
Let’s count on the problems
And we’ll find there’s nothing left to save
Where is all the knowledge?
Is there anyone who holds the key?
Where’s the door to open?
So that we can finally be free.
I started the fire
Let’s have everyone put the blame on me
I forced us to ruins
And I ignored everyone’s plea.
Blackship
There you were and here I am
In the strangest of places on this earth
Tweedle dum and tweedle damn that woman
She takes away my point of view
I wasn’t looking for you, yeah, but you found me
Honestly it’s all a lie
In the back of all our transparent minds
Have a ball and pay the price for something
And it’s here for one minute then it’s gone
Just like that
I wasn’t looking for you, yeah, but you found me
And they said his name was Eddie
(And he said his name was Jim)
And they said his name was Eddie
But honestly it’s all a lie
(Honestly, we’re doing fine)
Whadyasay?
I have no brothers, no nickels or dimes
I make poor decisions but I have a good time
But you can’t hate me more than I love
You ain’t got nothing, man, but you got enough
You got enough
When I was walking through my favorite old town
The day’s not important, but the time was around (Fore O’clock)
I kneeled down to the ground and I put my head down
I found my brother, man, when I heard the sound
Look around, lost nor found
Whadyasay, to a platter full of all you wished for
Would you call all around, and ask your friends how
Well I know
It’ll be a cold day in a place that’s not too far away
Whadyasay, to that. Oh yeah! Oh yeah! Oh yeah!
Well I have no money, no clothing or food
But we all know this cannot happen to you
If you had nothing, not even a dime
You couldn’t make it, yeah, but I’m doing fine
I’m doing fine, I’m fine?
Nothing comes too easy now, the bottle’s down, I’m finding out
I know, I know, nothing is quite wrong
It’s easier if I just ask you
Whadyasay to nothing, in a big ol’ plastic bag
I know it’ll be a cold, cold day.
But Whadyasay to that? Oh yeah!
Fore!
Sleep with me
Hide with me
Stay here with me ‘till morning
Take away my troubles let them sail across the sky
Take away that hologram so time won’t pass me by
Bye bye! Bye bye.
I’ll fly away
Fore!
I’m barely here; I’m barely there
Soak the sun
Feel the rays
Painting a dream with cherries
Take away my troubles let them fall upon the ground
Take away that hologram so lost can become found
I’m found! I’m found.
I’ll fly away
Fore!
I’m barely here; I’m barely there
I’ll fly away.
Fore!
Better Off Dead
I’m going crazy from too much sleep
And too much lack of rest
Intent to sit, no motivation
And I’m bored out of my head
Now I’ve turned on me
Redundancy has traveled up and down my spine
Straight at me, you could say I’d be…
Better off dead.
Tell me, what’s in my brain, am I insane?
Or am I just too dumb to see?
Just passing time, painting a mime
At the dead end of the street
Now I’ve turned on me
Redundancy has gathered all it’s strength
Taking me by the hand, sinking in the sand…
Better off dead.
Oh, what you give or what you take, make or break and then the feeling’s gone
What you do, trade it all, big or small and then the size is wrong.
What I want now is a smile, wait awhile for that sound that’s ticking in my head…
Better off dead.
It all
The day was gray and disdained
It rained and rained and then you appeared
Something inside me, keeps telling me it’s wrong
And I think it’s time, we figured it all out.
The chosen one, the thought is in my head
But anymore I don’t even care
I stared somewhere, for sanity’s remains
So feel the light that’s shining down on me.
Here it comes again
And I’m feeling sad again
I’m starting to close my mind; I do it all the time
And I’m beside myself and you
Keep thinking about that time, I start to lose my mind
And I’m beside all that and you
Seize the Day
It’s been one of those days, you pulled me aside
And said get out of the place that you dare to hide
Screams of my name at the top of their lungs
And I can’t find my way back, where I want to go
If I seize the day will it hurt me
If I let it go, will it come again
Seasons come and seasons go
But when you look you don’t know where to make your home
Cold blank stare in the mirror this morning
Should remind you, you should have followed
And can you feel it tear inside of me, over and over.
And can you hear it tear inside of me
Over and over and over and over and over…
Seven
Well there’s got to be something to believe in
And it ain’t what your telling me you’re seen in
All I know, is what I believed then
And I know that you’re telling me you’re leaving
Take a look inside yourself now
There’s a better way to go
Take a look inside myself now
And find a way, I’m telling you
Seven times too many times I’m ready
Seven times too many times I’m gone
Seven times too many times I’m ready
Seven times too many times I’m gone
There’s got to be something to believe in
Sing it now god’s children
And that’s fine…
On the Flipside
Don’t ever ask me why
(you gave it all to me, I gave it all to you)
I gotta go now
And please don’t follow
(you gave it all to me, I gave it all to you)
Everything’s gonna be just fine
There’s no mistake
(killing time on the flipside)
Every thing’s gonna be okay
(run away from today)
Now feel the light that’s shining down on me
(So save the time and save a space for me)
and I am blind, I will find
I’m a better man now
The end
