down by the river
we cast our hopes
through dirt and mud
our backs against the slopes

well, she works all day
under a blue sky
and she says that she loves me
and i don't know why
so stubborn with dreams of brighter lights
fascinated by death because she doesn't understand life
well, my mind is cut
on discrepancies
and words that she will not believe
still she says she loves me
but our conversations are so boring and
inside her head something is storming

oh sweet safely wandering girl
they locked you up you can't remember the trees
all you can tell is when someone leaves
and you were so scared and petrified of
perfect plastic hands reaching for the sky
you reached in your body taking everything keeping you alive
your body is keeping you a lie
oh sweet safely wandering girl
your body grows thin as you climb up the stairs
to find out who's bed you will share
and if you feel so compromised by
the heathen hands of men, undignified
you feel your soul deeply in your chest you cry
don't cry for the pleasure you get from a lie
oh sweet safely wandering girl
you've made up your mind about leaving the earth
it was written in your eyes at birth
before we ever met, could've sworn you had died from
the bottles of bravery broken on the floor all night
i sang my love i never cared about ivory eyes,
my love, i never cared for the lies
and we will get high on aluminum cans
poisoning our lips with words we can't stand
but your mouth doesn't move and
your screams can't conclude
you're doing everything you can

what does it mean to be an authentic person and
what does it mean to exist for a reason
and how can i make myself seem convincing
and at the same time stay faithful too?
what does it mean to be an authentic person and
what does it mean to exist for a reason
and could it be clear and transparent
that i am trying far too hard?

don't chastise the witness, just be happy
a souvenir from our old house
the past few week i've grown used to
tossing and turning on our couch
but
a lot of it is true i guess
i was distracted enough to blame you for all of my actions
you took your time, i didn't take mine
and in past lives we could have been
intertwined, but
when one star goes out the rest still shine
and i've been put out though i don't know why
its fine
i'll wake up with the radio on and
airplanes in my head

true love
03:56
|
|||
|
if you feel like you need love
keep it to yourself
vandalize your own body because
you love it so much and,
poor me,
a sweet drink of lemon juice
barely upsets the stomach
a spoonful of sugar and in my medicines i drown
but sometimes its better
not to read between the lines
sometimes it feels better
than you could ever believe
and
i'm not the one
in the glove compartment is a loaded gun

soft people

it is just another day in paradise
breakfast is served: a big bowl of lies
we are such soft people
boiling up with pride
everything is ours to choose and define
we dress up our bad intentions until we die
it is just another day in paradise
sit down, please, have a glass of wine
you will not survive if you stay blind
says, "i won't change, and i don't drink and drive"
it is just another day in paradise
woke up all alone somewhere you despise
walls that we built won't
come down with a shove
i misplaced my rib, perhaps it will turn to love

old crow

what can you say to an old crow?
working all day with his eyes closed
finding cash and internet scams
can you love him the way that i can?
and looking down from his throne
he slaughters us live on his television show
casting bodies with silver and gold
nowhere is safe, no shelter, no home
well can you love a homeless man?
and do you find him the way that he should be?
and when all the cash runs dry,
will you still want to learn how to fly?
you see old crow lives down in our hearts
and like the devil his lies are so sharp
but they burn like paper, plastic, and oil
the first one gone to be buried in soil

well, all's well that ends well
and i'm feeling just fine
and theres a fire out on the prairie
and we're all just drinking wine
and its
raining in the yard
rattlesnakes kiss me on both arms
well, i'm whistling while i work
and we're just all growing apart
and there's answers in the woods
but we're still sitting in the dark
well, its flooding dirt and blood
and i can see ghosts in the water
there's a man out in the back field
he is burying his daughter

did you see the devil back there?
with his pinstrip cape and my own inner ear
and i think i saw him again, as i entered the room
wearing my brother's skin as he pounds on the walls
and he's standing in the kitchen
i think i have found my way out
but it's senseless now to think of escape
he's frozen my body i accept my fate
and so i lock myself in my room
like the drugs told hold of my brain on a sober afternoon
and i sing to the devil
get out of my soul
i don't need you
i don't want you, no, not anymore
