Large fingers pushing paint...
You're God and you got big hands. Colors blend... the challenges you give, man. Seek my part, devote myself. My small self like a book amongst the many on a shelf. Sometimes I know, sometimes I rise. Sometimes I fall, sometimes I don't. Sometimes I cringe, sometimes I live. Sometimes I walk, sometimes I kneel. Sometimes I speak of nothing at all. Sometimes I reach to myself, dear God. |

The waiting drove me mad
You're finally here and I'm a mess I take your entrance back Can't let you roam inside my head I don't want to take what you can give I would rather starve than eat your bread I would rather run but I can't walk Guess I'll lie alone just like before I'll take the firmest path Oh, and I must refuse your test Push me and I will resist This behavior's not unique I don't want to hear from those who know They can buy, but can't put on my clothes I don't want to limp for them to walk Never would have known of me before I don't want to be held in your debt I'll pay it off in blood, let I be wed I'm already cut up and half-dead I'll end up alone like I began Everything has chains Absolutely nothing's changed Take my hand, not my picture, spilled my tincture... I don't want to take what you can give I would rather starve than eat your breast All the things that others want for me Can't buy what I want because it's free Can't buy what I want because it's free Can't be what you want because I'm... Ain't supposed to be just one Oh, to live and die, let it be done I figure I'll be damned, all alone like I began It's your move now I thought you were a friend But I guess I... I guess I hate you... |

G-R-E-E-D
G-R-E-E-D G-R-E-E-D It's a disease and they're all green It emanates from their being A satiation with occupation And like weeds with big leaves Stealing light from what's beneath Where they have more Still they take more I know then I don't There's a stowaway with my throat It's deceiving I don't believe him We can scream out our doors Behind the wall a fat man snores In his dreams he's Choking tea leaves Well I guess There's nothing wrong with what you say But don't sell me "There can't be better ways" Tell the captain "The boat's not safe and we're drowning" Turns out He's the one making waves, waves, waves But I said There's nothing wrong with what you say Believe me Just asking you to sway No white Or black, just grey Can you feel this World with your heart and not your brain G-R-E-E-D G-R-E-E-D |

It's out of my hands making your hands meet
Stumble as it's crumbling out of reach It's in the cards of destiny your sanity in tow Designate my luck Uh, resignate This power has no roots to guide, no role Trust me, rusted minds refuse to go Unwillingness is meaningless to walk away in vain Designate my will Ah, designate my fill Ah, resignate My will is crashing, synapses flashing slow Ah, days like frame by frame, where do they go? Ah yeah, why fight? Forget it, cannot spend it after I go Roll them high Throw them again All gods' dice Monkey driven, call this the living? Ha. Ah, too much thought it's overwrought a hole Yeah, minding yours what's mine not yours Will finish us off Ah, designate my life Ah, designate my view Ah, resignate my will, my will, my will, I will Resignate my God |

Vacate is the word
Vengeance has no place on me or her Cannot find the comfort in this world Artificial tear Vessel stabbed, next up, volunteers? Vulnerable, wisdom can't adhere A truant finds home and a will to hold on But there's a trapdoor in the sun It's immortality… As privileged as a whore Victims in demand for public show Swept out through the cracks beneath the door Holier than thou, how? Surrendered, executed, anyhow… Scrawls resolved, cigar box on the floor A truant finds home and a will to hold onto There's a trapdoor in the sun It's immortality... I cannot stop the thought running out the door Coming up a which way sign All good truants must decide Oh, stripped and sold, mom… Auctioned forearm and whiskers in the sink Truants move on, cannot stay long Some die just to live… Oh… |

Is this just another day?
This God forgotten place First comes love, then comes pain Let the games begin Questions rise and answers fall Insurmountable Love boat captain Take the reigns and steer us towards the clear, here It's already been sung, but it can't be said enough Is this just another phase Of earthquakes making waves? Trying to shake the cancer off Aah, stupid human beings Once you hold the hand of love It's all surmountable Hold me and make it the truth That when all is lost, there'll be you 'Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing And there's just one word I still believe And it's love It's an art to live with pain Mix the light into gray Lost nine friends we'll never know Two years ago today And if our lives became too long Would it add to our regret? And the young, they can lose hope 'Cause they can't see beyond today The wisdom that the old can't give away, hey Constant recall Sometimes life don't leave you alone Hold me and make it the truth That when all is lost, there will be you 'Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing And there's just one word that I still believe And it's love, love, love, love, love Love boat captain take the reigns Steer us towards the clear I know it's already been sung Can't be said enough Love is all you need All you need is love, love, love |

All in all, it's no one's fault
excuses turn to carbon walls Blame it all on chemical intercourse The swallowed seeds of arrogance Breeding in the thoughts of ten- Thousand fools who fight irrelevance The full moon is dead skin The one down here is wearing thin So set up the ten pins As the human tide rolls in Like a ball that's spinning Bombs dropping down Overhead, underground It's instilled to wanna live Bombs, dropping down Please forgive our hometown In our insignificance "Turn the jukebox up," he said, Dancing in irreverance "Play C3, let the song protest." The plates begin to shift Perfect lefts come rolling in I was alone and far away When I heard the band start playing On the lip, late take off Bombs dropping down Overhead, underground It's instilled to wanna live Bombs, dropping down Please forgive our hometown In our insignificance Feel like resonance of distance In the blood, the iron lies It's instilled to wanna live Bombs, dropping down Please forgive our hometown In our insignificance In our insignificance |

This is such a happening tailpipe of a party Like sugar, the guests are so refined A confidence man, but why so beleaguered? He's not a leader, he's a Texas leaguer Swinging for the fence, got lucky with a strike Drilling for fear makes the job simple Born on third, thinks he got a triple Blackout weaves its way through the cities Blackout weaves its way through the cities Blackout weaves its way I remember when you sang That song about today Now it's tomorrow and Everything has changed A think tank of aloof multiplication A nicotine wish and a columbus decanter Retrenchment and hoggishness The aristocrat choir sings "What's the ruckus?" The haves have not a clue The immenseness of suffering And the odd negotiation, a rarity With onion-skin plausibility of life And a keyboard reaffirmation Blackout weaves its way through the cities Blackout weaves its way through the cities Blackout weaves its way I remember when you sang That song about today Now it's tomorrow and Everything has changed. |

She lived on the curve in the road
In an old tar paper shack. On the south side of the town On the wrong side of the tracks. Sometimes on the way into town We'd say, "Mama can we stop and give her a ride?" Sometimes we did But her hands flew from her side. Wild eyed Crazy Mary. Down the long dirt road Past the Parson's place. That old blue car We used to race. Little country store with a sign tacked to the side. Said 'NO L-O-I-T-E-R-I-N-G ALLOWED.' Underneath that sign always congregated quite a crowd. Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it around. Take a bottle drink it down. Drink it... Pass it around. Pass it a... A-take a bottle drink it down. Pass it... Pass it a... Pass it around. One night thunder cracked. Mercy backed outside my windowsill. Dreamed I was flying High above the trees, over the hills. Looked down into the house of Mary. Terrible thoughts, newspaper covered walls. And Mary rising up above it all. Oh... Oh... Oh... Next morning on the way into town Saw some skid marks and followed them around. Over the curve, Through the fields, Into the house of Mary. That what you fear the most could meet you halfway. (x2) Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it around. Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it... Pass it around. Pass it a... Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it... Pass it a... Pass it around. Oh, pass it a... Pass it arround. Pass it a... Pass it a... Pass it a... Oh yeah. |
