NO CODE

SOMETIMES

Large fingers pushing paint
You're God and you've got big hands
The 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
 

HAIL, HAIL

Is there room for both of us?
Both of us apart?
Are we bound out of obligation?
Is that all we've got?
I get the words, and then I get to thinking
I don't wanna think I wanna feel
How do I feel?
How do I?
If your the only one, will I ever be enough?
Hail, Hail the lucky ones, I refer to those in love
How I love you to the day I die, and beyond
Are we going to the same place?
If so can I come?
It's egg rolling thick and heavy
All the past we carry
I could be new
You underestimate me
If your the only one, will I ever be enough?
Hail, Hail the lucky ones, I refer to those in love
Sometimes realize
I could only be as good as you'd let me
Are you woman enough to be my man?
Bandaged hand in hand
I find it on the run in a race that can't be won
All hail the lucky ones, I refer to those in love
If you're my only one
So could you only once
I want to be your one, enough
You won, you're one, you're one
 

WHO YOU ARE

Come to send
Not condescend
Transcendental consequence
Is to transcend
Where we are
Who are we
Who we are
Trampled moss on your souls
Changes all
Your apart
Seen it all
Not at all
Can't defend fucked up men
Take me for a ride before we leave
Circumstance
Clapping hands
Driving winds
Happenstance
Off the track in the mud
That's the moss
In the aforementioned verse
Just a little time before we leave
Stop light
Plays it part
So I would say you've got a part
What's your part
Who you are
You are who
Who you are
 

IN MY TREE

Up here in my tree, yeah
Newspapers matter not to me, yeah
No more crowbars to my head
I'm trading stories with the leaves instead, yeah
Wave to all my friends, yeah
They don't seem to notice me, no
All their eyes trained on the street, oh, oh
Sidewalks, cigarettes, and scenes, oh, yeah
Up here so high I start to shake
Up here so high the sky I scape
I'm so high I hold just one breath
Deep within my chest
Just like innocence
(mumbling)
I remember when, yeah
Swore I knew everything, oh yeah
They say knowledge is a tree, yeah
He's growing up just like me, yeah
I'm so light the wind he shakes
I'm so high the sky I scrape
I'm so high I hold just one breath
Go back to my nest
Sleeping innocence
Up here so high the boughs they break
Up here so high the sky I scrape
And my eyes peeled both wide open
And I got a glimpse
Of my innocence
I've got my innocence
Still got it, still got it
 

SMILE

Don't it make you smile?
Don't it make you smile?
When the sun don't shine?
It don't shine at all
Don't it make you smile?
Don't it make you smile?
Don't it make me smile?
When the sun don't shine
It don't shine at all
Don't it make me smile?
I miss you already
I miss you always
I miss you already
I miss you all day
This is how I feel
I miss you already
I miss you always
Three crooked heart swirls around (check out the card for this 3 hearts and swirls)
I miss you all day
 

OFF HE GOES

1, 2, 1, 2
Know a man, his face seem pulled and tense
Like he's riding on a motorbike in the strongest winds
So I approach with tact, Suggest that he should relax
But he's always moving much to fast
Said he'll see me on the flipside
On this trip he's taking for a ride
He's been taking too much on
There he goes with his perfectly unkept hope
There he goes
He's yet to come back
But I've seen his picture
It doesn't look the same up on the rack
We go way back
I wonder about his insides
It's like his thought are too big for his size
He's been taken, where I don't know
Off he goes with his perfectly unkept hope
There he goes
And now I rub my eyes
For he has returned
Seems my preconceptions are what have should have been burned
For he still smiles, and he's still strong
Nothing has changed but the surrounding bullshit that has grown
And now he's home and we're laughing
Like we always did, my same old, same old friend
Until a quarter to ten
I saw the strain creep in
He's seems to distracted and I know just what is going to happen next
Before his first step, he's off again
 

HABIT

See it happen to a couple of friends
See it happen and the message it sends
Taking off for what's an obvious fall
Just to see what all the fuss is about
It's not your way
Not your way
It's not your way
Another habit says it's in love with your
Another habit says it's love's overdue
Another habit like an unwanted friend
I'm so happy with my righteous self
It's not your way
Not your way
It's not your way
Never thought you'd habit (3x)
I never thought you, never thought you
Never thought you'd habit (3x)
I never thought you, never never thought you
Never thought you'd habit (6x)
Speaking as a child of the nineties
Never thought you'd habit (3x)
I never thought you, never thought you
Never thought you'd habit (3x)
I never thought you, never never thought you
Never
Never me
Never you
Never me
 

RED MOSQUITO

Watched out the window with a red mosquito
I was not allowed to leave the room
I saw the sun go down, and now it's coming up
Somewhere in the time between
I was bitten, must have been the devil
He was just paying me a little visit
Reminding me of his presence
Letting me know, he's awaiting
Red man's your neighbor, call it behavior
While your climbing up slippery hills
Two steps ahead of him, punctures in your neck
Hovering just above your bed (2x)
I was bitten must have been the devil
He was just paying me a little visit
Reminding me of his presence
Lettin me know, he's awaiting, he's awaiting
If I had known then, what I know now (4x)
 

LUKIN

Drive down the street can't find the keys to my own fucking home
I take a walk so I can curse my ass for being dumb
I make a right after the arches stinking grease and bone
Stop at the supermarket people stare like I'm a dog
I'm going to Lukin's
I gotta spot at Lukin's
I knock the door at Lukin's
Open the fridge
Now I know life is worth
I found my keys but I return to find an open door
Some fucking freak who claims I fathered by rape her love son
I found my wife I call the cops, this day's work's never done
The last I heard the freak was purchasing a fucking gun
 

PRESENT TENSE

Do you see the way that tree bends
Does it inspire?
Leaning out to catch the sun's rays
A lesson to be applied
Are you getting something out of this all encompassing trip?
You can spend your time alone redigesting past regrets, oh
Or you can come terms and realize your the only one can forgive yourself
Makes much more sense to live in the present tense
Have you ideas on how this life ends?
Checked your hands, and studied the lines
Have you the belief that the road ahead ascends off into the light
Seems that needlessly it's getting harder
To find an approach and a way to live
Are we getting something out of this all encompassing trip?
You can spend your time alone redigesting past regrets, oh
Or you can come terms and realize your the only who cannot forgive yourself, oh
Makes much more sense to live in the present tense
 

MANKIND

You'll be going out with radio, going out with disco, going with bacchanal
I'll be going out with telephone, going out alone, to the radar zone
It's all just inadvertant imitation, and I don't mean mine
It's all across this nation
If it's just inadvertant simulation a pattern in all mankind
What's got the whole world faking it?
I'll be playing with my magazine, using up my listerine, like ovaltine
You'll be dippin in your battleship, for the latest trip for the latest dream
It's all just inadvertant imitatation, and I don't mean mine
It's all across this nation What's got the whole world faking it?
If it's just inadevertant simulation a pattern in all mankind
What's got the whole world faking it?
What's got the whole world faking? (5x)
 

I'M OPEN

A man lies in his bed in a room with no door
He waits hoping for a present something, anything to enter
After spending half his life searching
He still felt as blank as the ceiling at which he stared
He's alive, but feels absolutely nothing, so is he?
When he was six he believed that moon overhead followed him
By nine he had deciphered the illusion trading magic for fact
No tradebacks
So this is what it is like to be an adult
If he only knew know what he had known then
I'm open (2x)
Come on in (4x)
I'm open (2x)
Come on in (4x)
Lying sideways atop crumpled sheets and no covers
He decides to dream, dream up a new self, for himself
 

AROUND THE BEND

I'm wishing you a well
Mind at peace within yourself
Covers up, I cast you off
I'll be watching as you breathe
I lie still, you move I send
You, off around the bend
I hold your head deep in my arms
My fingertips they close your eyes
Off you dream my little child
There's a sun around the bend
There's a sun around the bend
All the evenings close like this
All these moments that I fear
Please forgive me won't you dear
Please forgive me and let me share
With you around the bend
Your an angel when you sleep
How I want your soul to keep
On and on around the bend
