not just no one

if you love me youre gonna get hurt
that may be mean but i aint a jerk
theres just a few things that i dont wanna show no one
if you wanna be close to me
theres just a few things youll have to see
a few things that i dont wanna show no one
maybe some lessons could be learned
maybe we'll cross some uncertain turf
we'll make plans & we wont tell no one
although our time is not our own
we'll hang out in the boyzone
& ill show you a song that i aint shown no one
ill see that im not a curse
forcing a smile doesnt make it worse
when theres someone else beside you
& its not just no one
then i get hi and fall asleep
then i avoid reality
then im left all alone with no one

nailbiter

|
|||
|
fingers are all i ate for a little while today
all i care is that id actually bite them
ill bite em again until it hurts & i have no nail to feed on
it's wearing me out
i can see you have a problem
you're trying to eclipse the sun with your fingernails
trying to eclipse the sun is not a problem if i dont agree
ill try to be someone who knows what that means
try to be straight up with what you know

recorder

|
in the 4th grade my teacher brought me a recorder
she asked me to play but i didnt wanna
i didnt sing
apparently thats not ok
id just rather go back to sleep
first thing to do if you dont wanna be a goner
get lost in the arms of sleep beneath a haze of marijuana
run it again
writhing takes are the best
i didnt care you didnt know how its supposed to be
believe in a car thats waiting outside
far away from these jokers and their lies

cook of the century
01:07
|
|||
|
the key is to give it some perspective
you might not last that long
the key is to hold it together
it might not be there
you know im not the sort of guy who knows whats up
the key is to not get arrested
you might not make it out
the key is to pass thru undetected
it might not be the same
you know im not the cook of the century
thats for sure
you know im not the sort of guy who knows whats up
when it comes that sort of stuff

crazy lovers
01:56
|
|||
|
crazy lovers crying out
why cant we wait for each other
faith in another & finding out
why cant we wait for each other
crawling out from inside yourself
final signs dont fall off
famous last words spent with me and mine
then i found your smell

|
next time i see you we'll meet up again
at least i hope we'll meet again
next time i see you we'll meet again
next time i see you sing i'll see you again
next time i see you we'll meet again
next time i see you we'lll meet again

do you like pineapple?
03:22
|
|||
|
im tired
& im tired of having to wait
for something to set about the scene
my mind is full of things but i wont answer all your questions
i just dont know why its harder than you thought
that it might be
your sighs turn into tears and i never ask why
your favorite line
i dont have to explain myself all the time
i could ask you to try
but youll have to say whats on your mind
your sighs will turn into tears & ill never ask why
do you like pineapple
cuz im an expired can of pineapple

we're making a movie tonight & i cant wait to see it
it'll be in the back of my head until the end of next week
speaking of lingering thoughts
ive been dreaming of that place
again
its only a matter of time before it starts to show
|
||||
12. |
||||
|
youll soon find out it was only a reflection on the storm door
sitting on the porch with your best friends
watching all lights leave the sky
finding out what youve been listening to
itll soon be there for you to see
youll soon find out all those stagnant intentions in your mind
dont mean anything

sitting on top of trinity tower
flowers are growing thru cracks in the shower
& now theyre in my dogs mouth
rubble rapunzle let down your sheds metal stairs
cus ive got a toolbox full of useful chemicals
that make you forget what the world was like
the key to the wasteland

decide
02:13
|
|||
|
to decide to settle down with someone who wants to love you
just decide that your lifes enough for someone to want to love you
decide if your lifes enough for someone who wants to love you
just decide to settle down for someone who wants to love you
itd be crazy not to be own
but i think that you want to
save me with the life that you've known
oh no
why arent you
silently escaping my mind now like i want to happen

dog spine
02:32
|
|||
|
i went to a record sale at this old guys house
parked in an empty yard
i got out of my car & walked across the yard
then i saw a patch of dead grass
with a dog skeleton perfect in its own way
& i sent you a picture of it
and you said youd like to have the spine
but id already left by that time
in fact it had been quite a while
you said it half serious
in my car i figured youd think it was heroic
in a strange sort of way
then it started to rain really hard
and i felt kinda crazy doing this for someone
who doesnt even love me anymore
but i get there and ran thru the rain
to pick up that fucking dog spine
and i left knowing that it wasnt me who left
a beautiful death go unloved
