Hair Of The Dog

I need whiskey for my hangover
Whiskey for my hang
I need whiskey for my hangover
Whiskey!
I need money to make some money
Money to make some money
Money to make some money
I need money!
I need the love that broke my heart man
The love that broke my heart
The love that broke my heart
I need that love!
I need the hair of the dog!

Ultraviolets
03:52

Dismembered and emaciated
There's no way to anticipate it
The pain is underrated
You learn how to make it
I've been staring at your paintings of the Martians and the dead
The cats call me a zombie and I'm singing for my meds
The flowers in the windowsill in the 2nd frame still kill
The ultraviolets bleed into my eyes
Shut 'em and I see you tonight
Misgendered and elated
There's no way to escape it
The joy is underrated
They teach you how to fade it
I'm all colored out
I'm all lit up
I'm winding down
I'm all lit up

Into The Blue

I'd be a jukebox for you
Any song you wanna hear
Put a quarter in my mouth
And lend an ear
I'd be a runner for you
Anything I can get here
To put that smile back on your face
And wipe away these days of
Tears with you
I've tried everything
Now we're sniffing glue
To take away this headache
Wishing it was new
Rain is pounding on the roof
And the truth is soaking through
I fear there's no patching the sky this time
I can't gather flowers constantly
And gun down all your enemies
I step to the plate for you and a broken bat is
The only proof
So I'll be leaving soon
With Ellen now
Into the blue
I'm sick of sniffing glue
To take away this headache
Wishing it was new
I've been on repeat since yesterday
There's nothing new under the sun to say
It's all there if you want it bad enough
But tonight
A bunch of songs
And a burned out Lazarus candle are
The only proof
And I just can't keep on slipping the noose
Over and over again for you
So I'll be leaving soon
With Ellen now
Into the blue

On Time, Space & Light
04:37

Sometimes I play in traffic - sometimes I just play
My favorite birthday present was a can of lead-based paint
I dream about the water but the ocean makes me sick
I wish you and I could leave before they have to make us quit
I see your face in the moon long after you have gone
I hear you in the room when I sing another song
The silence never leaves but it's barely even here
I feel you in the unwinding of time and space and light
Sometimes I ache for laughter - sometimes I just ache
My most hated memories are ones I never chose to make
My nightmares only soothe me when reality is a chore
You brought me burning suns when all my days were such a bore

We may break but we won't bend
New beginnings never end
I'll remember everything you said
Long after I'm dead
Flowers in my brain at night
Living with this
It's all the light
I've been on repeat
Since yesterday
Yeah, everything decays
I love you anyways
We may stop - we may start
Lift a finger - break a heart
The water's clean on the other side
I'll meet you there
Diseased
At ease

Feeding Time #2

You say you want the best for me
I think you want the best for you
You say you wanna save me from hell
You wanna save yourself
You say you've got a helping hand
It's heavy and full of sand
You see, I've already got two of those
Hope you understand
It's an offering call at the beggar's ball
For another hollow man
Quicker hands, deeper pockets
Just because you can
Tell 'em what they wanna hear
The money rolls in the door
You call me cynical
The fruit I tasted was rotten to the core
And I can't help feeling like you knew it
If I was you I swear I wouldn't do it
Pray our souls to keep in the shallows and the deep
Cause everybody's bleeding and the sharks are on feeding time
It's doesn't keep me up at night
Wondering what's after this
You call it apathy
Me? I couldn't care less
I spent years splitting hairs
There ain't much left on my head
I still find my own meaning
Even if it's all meaningless
I don't aim to preach
But I fear that I might be
Turning into everything
That drove me out of your reach
All of this is easily said
Sitting where I sit
Honestly I'm not sure
Why I still give a shit
But you were just a garden snake
Living off the congregation
May even know who you are
If you can remember who I am

Cavities (No Insurance)
02:06
|
|||
|
Wasting away in the waiting room
Lost the insurance to the baby boom
Pedaling on a treadmill lawn
To fill my cavities and pay the loss
Best not be late... Hurry up and wait
On the clock for a better way
Pedaling on a treadmill lawn
Going green... going, going, gone
What scooped the soul out of my eyes?
Staring too long at the idea of a prize?
Spin around a cul-de-sac that never spits you out
Broke the lowest rung on the ladder
It didn't make a sound
Shattered another mirror cause I've never had the need
To smile through rotten teeth that laugh right back at me
Funnel the disease into the song
To fill my cavities and pay the loss

Invertebrate Song

You can try whatever you like
You can try whatever you want on me
Send a pipe bomb to my door
Piss all over my floor
Break my guitars in two
You can do whatever you want to me
But you best leave her alone
You can try whatever you like
You can try whatever you want on me
Call me screaming on the phone
Show up outside my home
Threaten to beat me blue
You can do whatever you want to me
But you best leave her alone
You can try whatever you like
You can try whatever you want on me
Take a swing from the back
Tie me down to the tracks
While you hide behind your goons you can do
Whatever you want to me
But you best leave her alone
Cause man, it's spineless and cold
You beat up on what you can't control
But this is dead and you're living proof
You can do whatever you want to me
But you best leave her alone

San Diego

We tried to reach you over and over again
Thought you might've gone and spent your last rainy day
We wanted to know if you were okay
I hope San Diego's been the change you needed here
I'm glad you got the guts to up and disappear
We tried to reach you over and over and over again
We figured you were out on the ghost town with your new friends
Or off taking selfies in the cemetery again
We wanted you to know you've been missed
Now that Tommy's dead
And Mary found god
Annie's in Colorado
Frankie's on the nod
You don't wanna lose track but you will
You don't wanna lose track but you will
You don't wanna look back but you will
We tried to reach you over and over again
