Unfaithful

I told you I was gonna move
And live off the land out in Montana
You said I would stand to lose
the love of the lights the absence of darkness
I came a long way today just to see you on my own
And I may have moved away but you’re still the same now that I’m home
May You always be unfaithful
To me
Spent a lot of time with you
Drinking in bars and lounging in backyards
And you never had to choose
What you would do if this fell apart
I came a long way today just to see you on my own
And I may have moved away, but you’re still the same now that I’m home
May you always be unfaithful (x2)
to me
The city that never sleep always slept around on me (x2)
May you always be unfaithful (x3)
to me

you can’t crawl til you lie on your belly
You can’t walk til you get your knees dirty
You always said that you’d hit the ground running
and you never looked back so you’d never look funny
2+2 ain’t never gonna equal 5
and look at you you’re always locked outside
lookin’ in through the fogged up window
In a pinch you can’t plan how life goes
I want for you Everything you’ve always wanted
You always do hit and miss then find your footing
But still we’re sold Everything we’ve never wanted
Baby steps to the front of the party then a
a break dance in the middle of mardi gras
It takes time to get where you’re going you can’t
Jump line at least you were trying though
I want for you Everything you’ve always wanted
You always do hit and miss then find your footing
We’re always told no one wants to die alone
If we are bold we can pawn the picket fences
But still we’re sold Everything we’ve never wanted
Well everyone else will tell you everything you ever wanted to hear
But no one else can show you, what you can’t see all by yourself

Wake Up
04:38
|
|||
|
Blacked out, in the middle of a
Backyard, in the corner of a July
July, not making any sense and
You & I, not taking any chances
We are, the kings of everything and
So far, no one says any different
Put off, what you can do tomorrow
And fall, into another summer
This is why we’re always on the cusp of
Never doing anything with ourselves
We’ll make our millions then we’ll head off for the coast of Spain
We’ll live the high life and we’ll never drink the cheap champagne
We’ll catch ‘em sleeping then we’ll teach ‘em all to rue the day
We’ll find our passion then we’ll all be almost on our way
Just as soon as we wake up
Just as soon as we wake up
Winter, drops a blanket down and
Splinters, all the things we’ve battened
Down to, our own procrastination
How soon, will we dessert our station
Winds change and bring an angry promise
With haste, we move to strike our comments
Records, collecting dust in corners
Bad Nerves, over time are fostered

Consolation

She can’t even fight her way
Out from under yesterday
Sometimes when the tide rolls in
She falls deep inside of it
She’s lyting awake in bed again
thinkin’ ‘bout another plan
I can’t tell her anything
she don’t know before it’s said
I’m sorry it’s OK, things will run their course
Tomorrow’s another day, you can’t take things by force
Things we tell each other
It doesn’t make it better
You’re alright
We’ll be fine
Monday’s rough
Friday comes
All I want for her to know
there’s nowhere else I’m gonna go go
I’ll write her this silly song
The same damn words that others sung
Everything seems infinite
Walking toward it in the wind
But everything gets clearer though
I just wish that she could know
Sometimes when the tides rolls in
She falls deep inside of it
Everything seems inifinite
Walking toward it in the wind

One Great Night
04:00
|

|
I have never even seen a ballet
I have never been to Europe
Wouldn’t know the slightest thing about it
But you could always seem to make up
Our own reality, surreal surroundings
Another late night, another play time
I don’t wanna see the sun in the morning
It’ll rise, close your eyes
We’ll let the night just peel away at the corners
Half past 5, it’s alright
Put the day off, don’t get caught, we should never let this night end.
Everything we’ve ever done together
melts away into a fog now
Even though I’ll never quite remember
I’ll always know we burnt the town down
To the ground again, and became fast friends
But everything ends hold onto that feeling
I don’t wanna see the sun in the morning
It’ll rise, close your eyes
We’ll let the night just peel away at the corners
Half past 5, it’s alright
You, it’s all because of you that we’re hiding
Let the time slip on by
Put the day off, don’t get caught, we should never let this night end.
Someday down the road we’ll both look back and we’ll remember
It’s all we could do
Cut the night in two
Then go our separate ways and try to piece it back together
What you can’t relive
You should just take in

Tinsel Take Down
03:32
|
|||
|
Rewind, your just a child full of brave inaction
sometimes, you got the feeling you could make it happen
feels nice, never knowing you could break wide open
Limelight, living at the center of attention
so you wanted the american dream we can be different, we can be perfect
it’s not all it’s coked up to be reading the misprints, trying to get it
you don’t wanna get lost, and we’re tired of watching you meltdown
push your way to the top just to have another first class breakdown
and you say you got robbed, another story of a tinsel takedown
over, and over, and over, and over again
forward, you got to find a way to get momentum
straight for, everything you ever thought you wanted
be warned, everybody wants a piece of the action
white noise, don’t lose yourself in the horizon

Divorce Myself
03:37

You are the sunshine in my eyes
The white hot blinding light
You are the anchor to my soul
to keep me down below
You’re always in my way
Never feeling OK
Maybe this time we’ll say
What we never want to talk about we’re never honest with ourselves
so I’ll Divorce Myself
So long to wholesome happiness
and good old fashioned bliss
So long to everything I’ve dreamed
and everything I need
You’re always in my way
Never feeling OK
Maybe this time we’ll say
What we never want to talk about we’re never honest with ourselves
You always want to lay around, and I’m always building my own hell
so I’ll Divorce Myself
Like a sun burnt shoulder that never seems to heal
Like a wind-blown shelter that doesn’t hold a seal
You can take your ego and then we’ll split the rest
or You can go with the flow and not be such a pest
always in the way, why not today?
You’re always in my way
Never feeling OK
Maybe this time we’ll say
What we never want to talk about we’re never honest with ourselves
You always want to lay around, and I’m always building my own hell
so I’ll Divorce Myself

Take The Money And Run

Jimmy’s in a band in LA
Pissing his life down the drain
Jenny’s at a school in Rhode Island
And no one gives a damn but her parents
And though they’ve never been in the same room
The two encounter all the same issues
Ask ‘em bout their plans for tomorrow
They’ll tell you that they’ve already lost hope
No one seems to wonder why Everyone before us
Was always doing everything right
Maybe it’s becasue we’re all wrapped up in ourselves
and we can’t ever keep from losing sight
They take the money and run
They take the money and run
cuz maybe all along they take all they want from us
They take the money and run
Used to be if you worked hard
You could always count on going far
That was long before all our fathers
decided that they’d ilfer the coffers
No one seems to wonder why Everyone before us
Was always doing everything right
Maybe it’s becasue we’re all wrapped up in ourselves
and we can’t ever keep from losing sight
They take the money and run
They take the money and run
cuz maybe all along they take all they want from us
They take the money and run
So Jimmy went and sold his guitar
and got himself a job in law
Jenny went and started a band
and stuck her middle finger up to the man

Make Nothing Something
03:15

Build it up just to tear down
Make something nothing, you’re gonna wreck this town
Self destruct don’t take too much time
Make nothing something if you’d be so kind
Isn’t it the middle of the night
Got a little time to kill
Sitting on the windowsill
Smoking cigarettes to ease my mind
I got another day ahead
Not sure if I can face it yet
I’m never gonna make this one right
Build it up just to tear down
Make something nothing, you’re gonna wreck this town
Self destruct don’t take too much time
Make nothing something if you’d be so kind
How did I get so far down the hole
Never knowing what to say
Don’t think I can find a way
Out from under all this on my own
I don’t have the self control
I feel like I am getting old
Don’t know how I’ll make it down the road.
Build it up just to tear down
Make something nothing, you’re gonna wreck this town
Self destruct don’t take too much time
Make nothing something if you’d be so kind
