Oh My God 00:39

Young Bodies 04:21
A criminal case when you were young Your body shakes it took me hours just to cum A plague on each and everyone For some strange reason I took time to know someone A criminal case when you were young The way our bodies touch I know you lost someone Our little town, the things you've done Through our backyards where the church bells have not rung You said we'd always be this young A gentle whisper and I know we have to run It's a cruel matter of life It's a cruel matter of life... A criminal case when you were young My body shakes it took me hours just to cum A calling father, fading sun You whisper softly and I know we have to run We made love under the sun Your eyes so full of hope the sky coming undone You said we'd always be this young These frightful hours as they stretch and find their ways into your lungs

I wanted to feel like you did I was looking for an answer Like a scared little kid Holding his mother’s limp hand Calling out, “when is it over?” Now look what you did But I I know that you’re hurting I know that you’re just trying to stay on the ground You said I’m your best shot But honey I won’t always be ‘round All this time I’ve been trying just to tow the line When you say you want me in your life I say why not Oh sure that’s fine Climbing, you took a fall You pulled me by my sweater Do I love you at all? I knew you wanted a lie So I told it to you softly Filled the edges of my eyes But I Want you to get up I want you to pretend that everything’s right I want your old chin up I want you to stride in the night You really had me going I know it’s not fair The way I’m alright You really had me going You had an affair But things turned out fine You really had me going Lost and afraid Just know that I tried You really had me going So don’t give up now leave me tonight

Don't Worry 03:07
Don’t worry There’s a word for what you have It’s called money And it’s going to get you back I could hear you call from a distant place I could let you slip through my cold embrace All these memories heard from the edge of space I could hear you I could hear you calling Don’t worry There’s a word for what you have Melancholy Oh boy, you got it bad I could hear you cry in a quiet place I could try and say what you can’t explain But the words just tangle round my brain And these feelings Keep me reeling hunny Don’t worry There’s a word for what you have It’s called money And it’s going to get you back I could love you now that you have no face All these memories gone but I can’t erase How your voice lingers in this hopeless space I could feel you In this winter landscape

Saturdays 04:16
I had a dream And as strange as it might seem I was a goner I was torn before you left But now I'm awake And I know what this life takes It takes a toll on All the people you hold dear On Saturdays When I met you after work I could miss you and want to kill you And feel like everything might hurt On Saturdays When I loved you as you are I could miss you and want to kill you And pass out drinking in your car I had a smoke And although we barely spoke I sensed you hurting I saw you trying Which just made it worse Then you went away And all your records stayed Spinning around me Spinning right through me Choking me up On Saturdays When I think of what we were I could miss you want to kill you I'll never be quite sure On Saturdays When I feared our little home I paced out in the garden While you cooked and checked your phone I can't figure out What I meant to you I know you had doubts But I did too So why do I feel Caught in a lie? Running and trying to try When all I need is some time

The God said The God said you don't have to be lonesome you don't You don't waste You don't waste a breath on the living 'cause I Well I know I know There's no reason they pick you apart It's just not working out No words on the page and I'm freaking out It's not philosophy it's art So get it together tear it apart It's not philosophy it's art So pull it together play both the parts Protect me Shield me in 4/4 4/4 4/4... I'm scared that they know it A rhyme could have showed it Shaking in mouths just like you said they'd be I used to sleep in the dark But these days I cut out my heart And lay it on the night stand And see how long my eyes stay open And as the blood runs through my sheets She says, "you're gonna need some Tide for that, hun" If that's all true Well you said you love me, you hate me, I get it So fuck it all Well baby, you Well you said you love me, you hate me, I get it So fuck it all The masturbation of the rich The life of Erin Brokovich I'm running out of dollar bills To try and fall in love with More music for white liberals A good rapport with waiters I'm doing all I can I don't wanna talk about it, man Depression is the new cliché So what am I supposed to say? I'm peeling toward the exit And my mind is looking pretty frayed He kicked your ass in second grade Made millions on your lemonade Why can't I ask if you're ok? Because some things just stay the same Is the art all dull? My mind all dull? I can't just know to know, you know I've played this shit out left to right It still looks like another's life Mediocrity is surely death So let no thought go unexpressed I'm running out of time before I'm running out of Tide before I Lose it too Well you said you love me, you hate me, I get it So fuck it all Darling you Well you said you love me, you hate me, I get it So fuck it all

Brother 02:10
8.
I came 500 miles When you were on suicide watch And I saw all of the places We could have gone if we hung out a lot We were never really friends We just killed time by the back of the school Now that I say it out loud I see what those days meant to you I came 500 miles When you were on suicide watch And I held your frail hand While you got the electric shock You danced in your hospital gown Your cigarette fell from your mouth I told you that I was afraid You said hey man, don’t worry now Don’t you worry now
9.
In winter’s light I left our little home I tried to call you up but felt alone And though it’s been a thousand million years I write these lines to try and disappear After all that’s all I really have Just two lovers laughing in my head

Old Nepal 06:34
I’ve been wasting all my life I was thinking We could pass the time But now I’ve gotten very sick So I'm thinking 'Bout when I as a kid My mother showed me picture books Of the temples tall and photos that she took Of a place well beyond the sea That when I closed my eyes at night I longed to be But now I feel hopeless I feel restless On my own The way you left me in ruin I went to Old Nepal I fell in love with Ma The way she held my hand The way she understands I went to Old Nepal And though the West had fallen I heard the tigers cry I said my last goodbyes Hide your love Beneath everyone You know I'm still Trying to find my way back home So I’ll just sit While the lights all fade and dim And while I'm losing time I'll start to close my eyes I went to Old Nepal I fell in love with Ma The way she held my hand The way she understands I went to Old Nepal And though the West had fallen I heard the tigers cry I said my last goodbyes I went to Old Nepal But as I soon grew tall I saw you turn so gray I saw you pass away But I could hear your voice Drowning out the noise You said don't be afraid I asked if I could stay And you told me no Full of all your glow Wishing me the best You touched my aching chest And I wished to be crushed I wished to just be dust for once I wished I could float On a riverboat While the paddles churned While my brother’s mourned While the wood oars sighed The sun in my eyes And though I'd soon feel cold Though I'd soon feel that I was growing old You said son don't look back You cannot cage the past Instead just let it fly Let it find its way into the night Only then we'll float Only then we'll sing, oh oh oh oh oh oh....
