September
A long drive
The leaves fall faster
When the wind come alive
The weather is on its way down
And I just might stay there for weeks
The clouds form these shapes that intrigue us
The sky begs the sunset to sink
And you ask yourself how
How can we flood this whole place
To yell at the wall just might drown me
If it bounces back right in my face
See I change as the seasons do change
Yet stay drifting in so many ways
And these colors they just seem to fade
Ludes
I think we're done so strip it all away
The bottle we've spun so strip it all away
Drained some yeast and gained a beast in my head
The tighter the hold the better the dream in the end
Conscience, conscience understand
Conscience, conscience I'm just not that big a fan
So find the humour if you can
I won't get pissed off I'll just get depressed
Keep a smirk on my face to keep in all suppressed
Now I've lost my joules with another slap of my tongue
The deeper the breath the deeper the tar in my lungs
Take another Quaalude and she'll love me
Drunk Her to Bed
I drunk her to bed
These feelings of gray
I drunk her to bed
One coastline away
Last year I trust to see things improve
When you're on your high there's someone below
Can you see hear me aging?
Perhaps I'll shutup
Your voice provides a feeling
An intervention
An instant to sober up
Don't think that I've left you
A button push away
When you look out in the distance
Shield your eyes from a lifetime of memory
Calgon Take Me Away
Just concentrate, call it a bad case of nerves
Procrastinate, with the lights on life is absurd
I'm angry that I feel so angry inside
When this pulse reminds me to stay busy
The mirror repeats it
Calgon take me away
Such a featherweight, dodging these punches so fast
Such a middleweight, to wear this bruise like a mask
Can't you see we're all a little angry
From holding this anger inside
When this pulse reminds us to stay busy
The mirror repeats it
Calgon take me away
The surface reflects it
Calgon take me away
Kodak Moment
I hate these moments
That I'm supposed to care about
A defining moment
Expressed with four letters from this mouth
The crowd reigns
And I had a moment
Voices blend in
And I had a moment
Who are these people
That I'm supposed to care about
THese shallow people
When going off the deep end
Gets the chlorine out
Anxiety
A Kodak Moment
Voices blend in
And I had a moment
I apologize
Momentarily
This bad taste in my mouth
Brings these sensations back to me
Lighten Up
Pardon me for staring
A flash of brilliance
Struck my face like the sun
This farmer's tan has just begun
I'm not burned
I'm just darkening up
I'm not burned
Please lighten up
Pardon me for dreaming
But these attitudes and appetites
Rub on with a mouthful
And melt off in the light
I'm not burned
I'm just darkening up
I'm not burned
Please lighten up
The Olympics
Keep your eyes out the window
And look for me
I'll be doing cartwheels
'Till my head is spinning
'Till your face is blushing
'Till this farmer's tan is showing
What could be in store
A shot at the Olympics
Diving for the door
As if I'd keep my balance
Hanging from the floor
Keep your mind out the window And think of me
