- Track Name: What I Do
-
My nights dreams are written with ice picks.
It seems a lot more days are getting their start like this.
So how do you wake up when a weight is on your chest,
fished out of little waters and thrown back into the big?
Hold out,
Keep down,
Monied days will abound.
I'm gonna do the next day just like i did the last,
Just feeling glad.
Cause most days are just about making do.
Why do you think I do what I do?
No days off, and the morning's pulled through a straw.
Monied days will abound, for now the morning's pulled right out. - Track Name: Now
-
In the middle of my coffee you said,
From the depths of my breakfast you said,
It's a problem of pattern and space.
Too much of them both,
and too much gone to waste.
Don't think I'm so natural.
Now I love you, Now I think I care.
Maybe I look like a fool and maybe you just complain.
We'll separate out this minute and see that were both the same.
Take away our faces and names and thats it, we're just the same.
Don't think I'm so natural,
To give an inch to please you
At all. - Track Name: Quitters
-
I don't know if I could take you on
But that's not a problem with me.
And I'm sure that we could get right along
if I kept real sweet,
But I wasn't taught that staying comfortable
Would let off the stress
For me, my family, and a pile of debt
So push like hell till regret.
No one can have my drive but me,
That's why I'm taking your job.
You know you got the top so easily
now I'm gonna let you drop.
Most every second we're together on the edges of our abilities,
Bent into shapes of an effort cured with caffeine,
But each morning
You sleep in
and expect the world to wait to change:
Maybe it will change
Maybe it won't change
But I'll be there the same.
No one can have my drive but me,
That's why I'm taking your job.
Someday you're gonna tell everyone you see
That you were once on top.
No one knows this work like me
So I'm gonna step outside it all.
I know it seems I just ain't easy to please
But you never live a day until it's done.
Nothing has changed but the date. - Track Name: Girl Marks
-
Stuck in the late night lights and dark glass,
Stuck on the way you move in a yellow dress,
Now I never wanna hear a song I haven't heard in the past.
Cause you’ve had an effect,
And I don’t know how to feel,
When am I gonna get to the good times I’ve been singing about?
Good God, I'll be here 'till my voice runs out.
Stuck on the city that holds its dues,
Stuck on the way I hold a groove,
When I cannot think of a moment that
that I've been so slowly untied.
Howdja get so skeptical?
Howdja learn what you know, pretty girl,
on taking the sting out of my bite?
Howdja keep me untied?
Howdja get me so comfotable
that I never got the chase in mind?
Though I watched you all the time
stuck between your place and mine,
feet on the floor push me right out of the door
into your way as youre passing by:
just enough woman, just enough girl
and just enough of myself that I had to support you.
But how did I just keep waiting,
stuck like a package here for you,
when I can't think of a moment when worry didn't keep me untied?
Well it's clear to me now though you never said it plain,
I'm an asshole, no reason to nickel-plate it.
Stuck in the late night lights and dark glass,
stuck on the way you move in a yellow dress,
now I never wanna hear a song I haven't heard in the past. - Track Name: Tell A Lie
-
Tell me a lie and don't give me time to recover from it.
You wear a hat to hide your face when you come through
But I won't let you cause that role is all mine
Shifting at one time from the top of the minds to the back of the long lines:
A hood ornament with no shine, not even a car to ride on
Not even a crowd to pour on, just stuck in one to shout from
Now you're wanting one, it wont take long
Till they forget your easy way
Of saying the things they all were thinking
As if we had some brains, as if we had some thought
As if we ever did a good bit of work for anyone.
Now I'm sorry to project,
So sorry I can't protect,
But I got a million other things to say instead. - Track Name: Middle of the Year
-
It's summer time and I know you need a friend,
So call up on me
If youre thinkin that ill fit in.
I won't be busy, just be sitting
across from a bunch of bullshit off in the distance.
Hot streets are woven across Brooklyn,
They melt their way past the cut that you live in,
Out to the woods where were keepin our hands clean.
If you were there you would probably see
The sun and
The rock band
The movement of the pavement
As the grass splits the cement.
The mailman just stopped coming.
Now come on out to my home at the borderline
Where the single stories are to spread out to combine.
With all this distance you miss the motions and get caught slow.
Any time that youre lookin to make a plan
You're never gonna plan how its gonna end,
So come on over and let it come slow. - Track Name: Walking Cold
-
I must have caught some kinda walking cold,
Some sort of malady that would let me keep standing on my own.
Is it a consequence, or a choice that turned on me?
Is it just taking it's time to spread down to my feet?
Dislocate in just one day,
I'll take two and call you if I just ain't OK.
Shouldn't do much more than soften my razor edge,
Shouldn't be much worse if I can just press through like a sledge.
Shouldn't be a problem with some coffee and a clean suit,
Should be feeling better without having to ask help from anyone like you.
Recuperate in just one day.
I've been worse off so you wont' be hearing from me until there's a change. - Track Name: Cut Up Cut Out
-
Back when we first met I had a rule
That I had no time to lose and so it was
That I spent my days in bed,
Laid up with worry about getting ahead,
So pretty soon,
Me and you,
We just came loose.
I started to feel self-conscious
So I just went shopping;
That left me right as loose change.
I started to feel unconscious,
I emptied my wallet,
But I just stayed the same.
It’s true
I’ve been waiting for you to cut me out.
Back when my kid moves were still taking shape
You said I had to choose about making space
For the work the world and the wife
And if I ever tried to cut one out I might
Just get a clue and not make it you.
The changes you made were so easy to replace,
I was back in my old shoes and you were gone without a trace.
So I sat there like a wheel on its side.
It was wrong to say I could roll with no guide.
But I’m through taking tips from people who can’t cut me out. - Track Name: Respectful
-
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know
If there's a worry in your head,
But if you want
If you want
I won't keep hanging around your neck.
Keep my word discrete like a fact
When the folding night puts you onto your back
and sleep comes like a static screen,
I'll just sit back watching.
How content could you be
without that kind of love?
If I might, I'm gonna try
To keep it up.
Come out,
And you could not let me think
Oh child
About any other thing.
Come out.
As the steam builds in my veins,
the cold of you and your remove keep me contained.
How content could you be
without my kind of love?
Anytime you push me to the side
I'm gonna come right back.
Come out,
And you could not let me think
Oh child
About any other thing.
Come out.
As the steam builds in my veins,
the cold of you and your remove keep me contained.
How content can you be
without my kind of love?
If I might, I'm gonna try
to keep it up.
