A Dream
03:23
|

|
I had a dream there was a tower rising from the ground
It came to me without a sound with all that time to wonder
Another scheme I couldn’t leave it up in front of you
There’s not another could’ve found what you had done
So mean til the last time
To tell the lies you only have to check the eyes
A subtle trick that I’d advise you learn before your own demise
And then you finish it with sighs
Or it’s your own demise
Yeah it’s your own demise
He jumped right out in front of it
On the platform folks were watching
Now why would you murder yourself at all
When no one knows how many holes it takes to fill the Albert hall

We Loop
03:04
|
|||
|
Say what you want
Know it can hurt
Think of it first and last to work
Consequences you’ll find
Receive arrive
Arrive arrive
Speaking through life
What have you meant
Circling thoughts again journaled just the same
A voice
An ear
Coming around again this is why we loop
We loop
We loop
We loop

For Money
03:31
|

|
Idealism holding it out
Making a face making a pout for money
Yeah for money
Holding a path and we’re taking it in
It’s making me feel like a cardinal sin for money
Yeah for money
We fall off
Off the tale again
So we get high
High to live again
And now you’re running late
Keeping the smile on your face
Look at what’s gone by now
Look at what’s gone by now
Tell me the story start it again
From the beginning and leave it all in
That story
You know I love that story
And we can find a time to love again
And we can mine a living in the end

Covered Glass
04:14

In the past there is no future
In the past there is no future
When you cried I tried to suit you
We will never know never know such tender partners
Like covered glass or broken mirrors
I opened up to bring us nearer
In the morning can’t be feeling
You left me reeling
And I won’t be sure to run on covered glass
It’s always been a fear of mine that I’d fall through
To the street below
Can we be friends if we’re not lovers
Can make amends or look for others
If this is all we have do you still want to
There is no past in the future
Will it last without the sutures
Is it just a rhyme that has no meaning
And has all the time we’ve spent just been fleeting
And I won’t be sure to run on covered glass
It’s always been a fear of mine that I’d fall through
To the street far below
In the past there is no future
There is no past in the future
In the past there is no future
There is no past in the future
In the past
In the past
There is no future

Humdrum Blues
04:32
|
|||
|
A couple thousand days full of every emotion
It’s enough to know a woman as much as a man can
But still don’t feel like it’s the proper devotion
To ensure we can both withstand
All of the distractions
So hard to keep your head from out of the clouds
She’ll never have her satisfaction
Unless she’s sure that we’re both strapped down
She’s so tired of the hum drum
And I understand
She wants something tangible
Like a ring on her hand
And she’s tired of my reasons
She’s so tired of my broke ass life
And I understand her pleading
And she’s leaving unless I make her my wife
A couple thousand days full of every emotion
It’s enough to know a woman as much as a man can
And it’s not enough to keep her from wondering what I do when I’m gone
She’s so tired of the hum drum
And I understand
She wants something tangible
Like a ring on her pretty little hand
And she’s tired of my reasons
She’s so tired of my broke ass life
And I understand her pleading
And she’s leaving unless I make her my wife
All of the distractions
So hard to keep your head from out of the clouds
She’ll never have her satisfaction
Unless she’s sure that we’re both strapped down
I never wanted money
Never wanted to chase these dragons
Not afraid of being lonely
But if she leaves I don’t know what’ll happen
She’s tired of the humdrum
And I understand
She wants something tangible
Like a ring on her pretty little hand
And she’s tired of my reasons
She’s so tired of my broke ass life
And I understand her pleading
And she’s leaving unless I make her my wife

Heart Hole
02:49
|
|||
|
This is the hole that we fill with each other
The one that’s left when we’ve found what we could not believe in
And those who succeed can surely keep it in line
The rest of us know it’s just a hole we’ve got to fill
It’s just a hole we’ve got to fill
It’s just a hole we’ve got to fill
We spend a life to decide if we have had too much
Or is it never enough
Sometimes it’s hard to decide
Would it be easy to quit and better off in the end
There’d still be something to replace
Another hole you’d have to fill
Just another hole you’d have to fill
Still another hole you’d have to fill

LL
02:25
|
|||
|
I don’t have words
Do I need them
If I ask you
Would you be here
What if we could make the distance
In the future
Is it hoping
And the sutures will come open
And to have a life we have to love again
