Traveling, swallowing Dramamine
Feeling spaced, breathing out Listerine I've said what I'd said what I'd tell you And that you've killed the better part of me If you could just milk it for everything I've said what I said and you know what I mean But I still can't focus on anything We kiss on the mouth but still cough down our sleeves Traveling, swallowing Dramamine Look at your face like you're killed in a dream And you think you've figured out everything I think I know my geography pretty damn well You say what you need so you'll get more If you could just milk it for everything I've said what I said and you know what I mean But I still can't focus on anything |

He don't remember how it got there he had a number written on his forearm it spelled disaster
He entered the club scene All hoping, all hoping for dancing He was looking, a looking so stunning His clothes reflecting light, all right she She sat, she sat in the backseat The car was plush but had no heat And no, not no one was blushing Their technique was so damn right, all right and He read the note in the black light He thought he read minds and was not right That line still made him seem charming His clothes were shining, shining |

He realizes and itemizes pulls harder than gravity She ionizes and atomizes then turns to sunlight Florescent light bulbs will make an absence of dark but the light just ain't there still and she said I am feeling empty The real lights can make you heavy But never ever really empty (Florescent lights will always equal empty) |

A surf rock band from the land of plenty
Surf rock bands with no surf, just pine trees Struck by being ashamed of your old space Just wanted that mean heat You bleached your hair and you pawned your skis And then you sold out for the shade of the palm tree scene And said, oh what a drag, oh what a backwards scheme Cause here things go from gray to gray, then back to gray again And they get green then go to gray and go back to gray again, so he said Head south, head south, head south, head south Head south, head south, head south, head south Head south, head south, head south, head south Head south, head south, head south, head south Struck by being ashamed of your old space Just wanted that mean heat You bleached your hair and you pawned your skis And then you sold out for the shape of the palm tree scene Sit around in cut off jeans and cut off jeans are what you mean, when you say Head south, head south, head south, head south Head south, head south, head south, head south Head south, head south, head south, head south |

When I can work out how it was then I'll tell you
TV stained my memories, yeah I don't fit the shoes Remember through sounds, remember through smells Remember through colors, remember through towns With fear and fascination on what was here And what's replacing them now Interchange plazas and malls and crowded chain restaurants More housing developments go up named after the things they replace So welcome to Meadow Brook and welcome to Shady Space Well it all seems a little abrupt, well no, I don't like this change of pace |

Every sick, fickle fucker, childhood is what makes ya, oh, oh
Till they treat ya like tundra Weigh those opinions more like air than lead Every planned occupation, surefire disappointment up ahead Till they treat ya like desert, see mirages of friendship, face turns red Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw SHIT! (I don't feel and that feels fine, save twenty dollars and you should rest fine? I don't mind) Too soon to be naked, build bridges to nothing, you'll get nowhere (I don't feel and that feels fine, I don't feel and that feels fine) Every governor's mother knows that their bread is buttered by Sam (Crook takes, crook takes green out of wallet) And what about science? They find proof and let you make your own decisions (There are answers to our reasons worthwile to find) Every child star wonders, if they have a future up ahead (King takes Queen, takes Queen out, Game. It's alright, it's alright) Every kindhearted banker, I don't think there is one (I take you out) Every winning opinion, I wish I had one (I took you out for a night on the town I took my wallet out nothing was there) Every winning opinion, I, I wish I had one (You don't mind well that's just bullshit) There's lifeforms in water put them aside and you'll get nowhere (You're balancing balls on your nose alright, I don't mind I don't mind if it's so Sometimes you want your own space and that's alright, right? right) (Get too creative ordering our drinks and mine stinks, mine stinks Get too creative ordering our drinks and yours stinks, yours stinks, yours stinks Don't get too creative, don't get too creative) |

Ohio, Ohio, Ohio, Ohio, Ohio
Took a bus straight to Baltimore, on the way he took a nap Dropped off a note that said I'm giving this note back P.S. there's a lot going on underneath There's roots, there's pipes and there's drainage leaks, oh yeah You're on, you're wrong Ohio, Ohio, Ohio, Ohio, Ohio Truly sorry, I see clearly Calmly crashing, I pace faster than anyone Hinges rusting, they swing louder than anything Truly lonely, this place is flatter than it seems I'm upset and I leave the door open wide Our hearts are used up, cracked and dry Pulled the scabs off of regrets We haven't learned to eat our conscience yet Truly sorry, I see clearly Hardly hoping, I spend it all on game machines Calmly crashing, I pace and I figure it out again One hand clapping, awake but napping Rows of lights to illuminate lines Why don't they turn them off and let us see night Drove crazed, grooming my lies You can't look in on one-way eyes Ohio, Ohio, Ohio, Ohio, Ohio Ohio, Ohio, Ohio, Ohio, Ohio |

Does not exist, take an exit
Does not exist, take an exit I hear voices insinuating Feeds me lyrics to these songs that I am saying Sunlight, 7:20 PM, early September Standing looking at a photograph that you do not remember, being taken You look out of breath and me like I am faking As a matter of fact I don't recall this photo being taken You don't even actually exist so I just started shaking Does not exist, take an exit |

And I said you shouldn't make facts out of opinions
He said that I was right, you're right, I knew that I was And I'd hate to see anybody fail But I'd like to see you fail seeing me fail though I'm not sure who I am I'm not sure who I am but I know who I've been And I said you can't make everybody happy He said you'd like to at least make yourself happy though I'm not sure who I am I'm not sure who I am but I know who I've been |

Won herself a pass to some far off moon
It was second class but what's to lose And looking out her window she could more than assume That you can't see air or time She's the only rocketeer in the whole damn place They gave her a mirror so she could talk to a face She still got plenty lonely but that's just the case With time, time, time Started hearing voices sometime in June She knew she could go crazy but didn't think that soon Now she doesn't feel lonely but she'd just as soon Try, try, try Man shot to the moon I bought a paperback and want to go real soon I'm shot to the moon Been there a half an hour I wanna come home soon |
