Campfire
Well
I never really expected this kind of thing
She should have been enough
I bumped into you somehow
You'll come back
My duct-taped vest was my party best
But it's really all I own
I've been waiting now
And there's all these winter stars still flying
Cassiopeia
I've been weighted down
'Cause it's alright
There's no goodbyes
And the lightning comes and lightning goes
And it's all the same to me
Let it in
Push back the broken doors
So I can finally breathe, and be released
Into one thousand pieces
I have broke into
Over you
You can look out that door
But life goes on and on
And I check myself
'Cause there's no one else
It's just us hanging out
Why are we waiting now?
'Cause we could live like kings
Or we could take a risk
And we could live in doubt
Why're we waiting now, now, now?
And lightning comes and lightning goes
It's all the same to me
Let it in
Fight back the broken doors
So I can finally breathe, and be released
Into one thousand pieces
I had broke into
Over you
You were looking out that door
But life goes on and on
This, this is, this is the last time, last time
This, this is, this is the goodbye
This, this is, this is the last time
This, this is, this is goodbye!
Some girls break you down
Just to see you come undone
Well I've been waiting now
Maybe you and I are cursed
Well maybe you and I are one
Spin around the universe
Around, around, around
And lightning comes and lightning goes
It's all the same to me
Let it in
Through the glass of broken doors
So I can finally breathe, and be released
Into a thousand pieces
That i have broke into
Over you
You were looking out that door
But life goes on and on
And on and on
It's what you always wanted
It's what you always wanted
It's what you always wanted
Don’t Believe A Word
Cigarette's make an ember stain
Notes scribbled on paper chain
Ever get the feeling that you've been cheated?
You busted out you been defeated
All strong bones we hold no water
A big fake smile and you try harder
Time wound down and you've been cached
Half measures are all half-assed!
How did I ever end up this way?
Cause I go numb in disarray
I cultivate my ignorance
Didn't I have some standards once?
I hate you down to your boots
We wanted clever, we settled for cute and
Remember the times I looked in your eyes
All the times we rhapsodized
Do not love you will find no trust and
Do not touch you will find no such
Give me back my photos, will you?
You fucking whore I'll kill you!
Don't believe a word
Just keep on dreamin'
Please don't believe a word
Pretty soon we'll wake up screamin'
Don't believe it!
Just keep on dreamin'
Please don't believe a word
Pretty soon we'll wake up screamin'
Every fake is everything
Some dull ache replace the sting
Rap stars brag and shoot each other
And entertain just like no other
We love thugs when they attack and
We love crime all black on black and
Isn't this you, cruel-hearted fake?
Isn't this more than you can take!
Don't believe a word
Just keep on dreamin'
Please don't believe a word
Pretty soon we'll wake up screamin'
Yeah don't believe it!
Just keep on dreamin'
Please don't believe a word
Pretty soon we'll wake up screamin'
Pretty soon we'll wake up screamin'
Found a bomb with big lich pins
Yay for the bullies they always win
All sensation makes no sense
Some insane confidence
Isn't this you, cruel-hearted fake?
Isn't this more than you can take?
Scandalize now with such ease
Stress this secular disease
Sermon tells a soldier squeeze
The trigger on our enemies
We're all alive, all alone
Til you come home
Please come home
Don't believe a word
Just keep on dreamin'
Please don't believe a word
Pretty soon we'll wake up screamin'
Yeah don't believe it!
Just keep on dreamin'
Please don't believe a word
Pretty soon we'll wake up screamin'
Why Can't You Be
Are you frightened by the weight you possess
Is this life just promise-less
The smoggy twilight in LA
I can't think of one right thing to say
Robbie williams is walking in the canyons
Forgets that we were friends
I guess it all depends on your mood
Why can't these meds be any damn good
And she said
Why can't you be
Like a waterpik shower massager
A sweet reliable machine
To tell the truth
She don't feel less alone
Water massager’s the purest love she's ever known
Why can't you be
When I was 13
Why can't you be
Like an art house foreign movie
Frank and sexy, red balloons and ennui
And allude to me
Why can't you be
A little more of a mystery
Why can't you be
The part of me that's missing
Instead of leaving me for some other
Said we're perfect for each other
Why can't you be
Like an outsourced government contract
And I'm a fat cat
Gettin' away with anything
Kicking some secret special powers
Illumination round it showers
And your tearing your hair out
While we can have a bed of flowers
Why can't you be
A little more in love than in lust
When it's just the two of us
Sometimes a blowjob's not enough
Why can’t you be
A little less rough
Why can't you be
The part of me that's missing
Instead of leaving me for some other
Say we're perfect for each other
And I wanna spend my life with her
Me
My life
Separately
I knew you
Could you forget about me and live alone
When we're dead, we will have eternity.
And I will, and I will
Be with you and you with me
So while I'm alive
I will always be
Why can't you be
A little more deep into me
Like JD Salinger
Why do I challenge her
In all its purpose
Ways that you must prove
Why can't you be
A little more release
Why can't you be
Like a hand rolled cigarette
I’m not choking
This masochistic self-pity of smoking
And this city dew
I keep provoking you to leave me
She said
Why can't you be
Like a candle I can snuff
You’re still a diamond in the rough
And I swear to god I've had enough
How can I call your bluff?
Monotov’s Private Opera
Every moment of your life
Is a chance to get it right
Any moment you've been living in
You could turn it on like a light
All the weight of the years
Has got me burstin' into tears
Standin' here with nothin'
I stand alone inside my fears
Like an atom reveals a deeper state
Well I swear for me tonight
It's not too late
To tell you baby
It's you and only you and no one else
And I'll mean it
Even when I'm talking to myself
I said maybe, it's you and only you and no one else
How I miss Moscow
Those people really know
How to have a good time
In a mixed up state of mind
And Monotov's Private Opera is closed
So I guess I'll go home now
Cause there's no wheres else to go
And I will tell you baby
It's you and only you and no one else
And I will mean it
Even when I'm talking to myself
I said baby, it's you and only you and no one else
You and no one else
Now I'm stuck inside a poem
And then I'm walkin by myself
In the dark, all alone
And these actors and dramatists
They won't send me home
Well, maybe I'm like my father
Strung out on something or another
Held to a standard
We were always sinking under
And maybe I'm like my mother
She shattered cause no one loved her
Maybe I, Maybe I am like no other
And some moments are more real than the books I've read
And a good woman, maybe she meant what she said
Cause to feel you now ya know, it goes straight to my head
So I'll tell you baby
It's you and only you and no one else
And I will mean it, even when I'm talkin' to myself
I said baby, it's you and only you and no one else
Talkin' to myself
Talkin' to myself
And everything changed in a day
And I know another one on the way
And I'll tell you
Everything changed in a day
And I know another one is on the way
Non
Dairy Creamer
"They
call it KFC,
Cause its not really chicken.
Hot Cheetos for breakfast,
Make a young student sickened.
Did you ever think someones tricking you?
And the guy in the pulpit,
Is a bigot and a liar,
Some kid walks into my school,
And opens fire.
Heard any good jokes lately?
Cause we sure do need them.
My punk band's called Operation Iraqi Freedom.
So whats it going to be?
Are you real to me?
Or are you nondairy creamer?
A new love,
Is burning up in me,
Cause one in four American girls has an STD.
And you can buy yourself some implants,
But you can't buy soul threat level orange.
With your chest pumped out,
What are you so afraid about?
With your chest pumped out,
What are you so afraid about?
What are you so afraid of?
What are you so afraid of?
Whats it going to be?
Are you real to me?
Or are you nondairy creamer?
And two gay guys got married,
Brought the family to its knees.
How did they blow us to smithereens?
Just a couple of queens.
How did they do it?
I'm telling you now,
Brought marriage to an end,
And I found myself some culprits,
It's two young gay republicans.
Young gay republicans.
Young gay republicans.
Young gay republicans.
So what's it going to be?
Are you real to me?
Or are you nondairy creamer?
So what's it going to be?
Are you real to me?
Or are you nondairy creamer?
Mission Accomplished.
Mission Accomplished.
Mission Accomplished.
Some, someone we let murder,
Some, some we let go.
Some, someone we let murder,
Some, some we let go.
(not real sure on this stanza)
Red
Star
The police high beam froze her perfect face
In white glow for a while
The politic bureau's on high alert
And her name showed up on file
There's trouble with their war effort
And she's been speaking out
Checkpoint Charlie's radioing in
She's compromised in doubt
There's trouble with the war effort and she's crossed the party line
You were so pretty in the days you spoke your mind
You were so pretty oh
And you were so pretty oh oh oh
Well I don't know...
The files have been filled
The regime won't be undermined
You were so pretty in the days you spoke your mind
Quiet now don't make a sound
The system shut us down now we find each other in the underground
She had the voice once of the people
now she's timid as a mouse
I would kiss you on the mouth in a safe house
Cause you were so pretty oh
hiding out
hiding out
Cause you were so pretty oh
hiding out
hiding out
Walk on by
hiding out
hiding out
Walk on by
She's a red star
She's a red star
Tell me how did you let them in
We were silent secret agents
But the resistance is wearing thin
Dissent is now illegal
She must pay the consequence
In this thriller mystery baby
You are my suspense
Cause you were so pretty oh
hiding out
hiding out
Cause you were so pretty oh
hiding out
hiding out
Walk on by
hiding out
hiding out
Walk on by
She's a red star
She's a red star
You've come so far to back down now...
Thanks for listening and feel free to leave a comment below.
Summer
Town
How
do we begin to know?
Everyone I know is from the coast and
Shiver in the wind it shows
All I have are summer clothes and
Oh it brings me down
When it's winter time in a summer town and
It's winter time in a summer town and
All we are are friends who keep on losing time and
Fade away the precious ones we keep in mind and
Realise that I'm the one that you left behind
After Halloween
Everything starts fading
And I'm losing everyone
I go down like the sun
You know what I mean
We all live in a Summertown
Standing by the ___
Where we stood outside and sang out loud and
Ocean like a ghost and remember the time that we drew a crowd
and
Left you a message wrote and I left it there in a Winter coat
and
...What am I doing with a Winter coat and
I told you everything I knew that seized the time and
Realize that I'm the one that you left behind
After Halloween
Everything starts fading
And I'm losing everyone
I go down like the sun
You know what I mean
We all live in a Summertown
Perhaps it's someone you met and
The moment comes and you can't forget it
Time will move so fast and now you're living in the past and
I'm as empty now as a vacant sign, or do I find?
Find myself when I'm the one that you left behind
After Halloween
Everything starts fading
And I'm losing everyone
I go down like the sun
You know what I mean
We all live in a Summertown
Right After Halloween
Can we stay together?
I'm losing everyone
And I come undone
You know what I mean
That's how it goes in a Summertown
We'll we wake up from this dream
Nothing lasts forever
Last Summer is done
So rock another one
Rock another one
Standing by the ___ (cast?)
Stood outside and sang out loud and
Ocean like a ghost and we let it go, we let it go
Left you a message wrote, left it there somewhere back there
In a Summertown
Summertown
all we are are friends we keep, but we're losing time and it's
bittersweet
I'm feeling like we'll always be in a Summertown
Alright
Caroline
Tell the truth
for once just this time
Knowing we've been through it
Baby's eyes look just like mine
We've both been through it
Tell the truth for once just this time
I didn't know how much you
Would take from me
When you kiss this little girl around
Give me back mine
Didn't know what we made laying down
One more time
Tell the truth for once just this time
It just seems that things, it could've been different
I can't change it
So alright Caroline
I won't take nothing from you
Alright Caroline
Even if it means the truth
Alright
When you teach this little girl to walk
Another will remind
There's a price to pay for a place safe to hide
From inside
The truth for once just this time
It seems that things, they could've been different
Both of us
Both of us
Alright Caroline
I won't take nothing from you
Alright Caroline
Even if it means the truth
Alright
Time moves faster today, oh
Let's not speak of it
Some things you cannot mend
And I'm watching her sleep
And it's beautiful
Tell me when I won't be seeing you again
You didn't even ask me
If it was alright
Alright Caroline
Even if it means the truth
Alright Caroline
Alright
To understand you
I feel you
To claim to understand you
But I feel you
It's gonna take a long time
To grow young again, yeah, I know
It's gonna take a long time
To grow young again, I know
It's gonna take a long, It was alright
To grow young again, It was all right
If it was alright
If it was alright
