- A Loose Hair Falls Into A Glass Of Water Without Ice
if this is all part of some plan
if this is all part of some game
if this is some self affirming notion
if this is all exactly what i think it is
our phobias are the only conversation
i dont want to say anything right now
smoke gets in your eyes
and loose hairs fall into a glass of water without ice
- All Apologies And Smiles, Yours Truely, Ugly Valentine
so they're all gone now
that took a long time
you're the only one
who'd be my valentine
i didn't want that
to drive you crazy
i should've done something
i guess im lazy
- All Apologies and Smiles, Yours Truly, Ugly Valentine
So they're all gone now
That took a long time
You're the only one
Who'd be my valentine
I didn't want that
To drive you crazy
I should've done something
I guess im lazy
- Alphabet On The Manhole
It's 'cause you're out of sight
Shit, this makes no sense
(She wants an explanation)
She wants to tell me real bad
(She wants to tell you that)
She drove her home
(Know what had made me run for)
Though you'll never know
- Blankets Stare
So here is a note, its been a long month
and now i have to, have to go to sleep now
its 2 a.m. and i feel like
i might have done something wrong
finally made an end to all the backwards notes
now we all are standing in line
so change your clothes again
how can i convince you
- Brooke Daniels' Tiny Broken Finger
If you were here right now
Not dead like you are
I would sit by you, but you're not here,
You're not here at all
Tiny broken fingers in the doorway
How was i to know?
Guess i didn't think those screams were for real
In a house where the tree fell
- Chelsea Hotel
I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel
You were talking so brave and so sweet
Giving me head on the unmade bed
While the limousine waits in the street
Those were the reasons that was New York
We were running for the money and the flesh
And that was called love for the workers in song
Probably still is for those of them left
- Curtains
the curtains were made for moving
'cause you know, sometimes you're not always there.
you don't need it now; your head's shaped like a cow.
till all is here, the world's just a sphere,
no bigger than the balls she sucks.
hey you, with your hat down,
don't you know that can't be where it's always at?
- Die
I wake up, it’s all gone
(your characteristic seemed alright)
I wish I had stayed at home
(you’re so disappointed every time)
At home here, I need you to tell me all the wrong I’ve done
I wish you’d believe me, I’m alright in my life
(the backyard is empty when you’re gone)
I see you way out there
- Drunk With The Only Saints I Know
drunk with the only saints i know
everyone was wearing their halos
this is how we look when we die
decorations on the tables
x-marks over our eyes
cleanse the faces of
all the ones you love
think about how your friends are
- Figure It Out
Well I can't tell you where to go
That will swallow you whole
If you don't turn around
If you don't do it now
Count these hours up to six
I've been up since five
I'll be coming 'round at ten
You'll do it all again
- Gauze
Medicated
Your attention
Drive winters, melted diamonds and glass
Cheater's hands
Never taking her
Never taking so much of I
- Halfway Spoken Heart That Feels Comfort in Everything Until It Disappears and Then It's Gone
hoping that the warmth of snow
will bring some comfort with its gray
false light will glow from the lamp
i will shade to hide the glare from your pale face
until it disappears and then its gone
sit so quiet, breathe so softly
waiting for the walls to creak
so you can finally let out a sigh
- Heather Rhodes
here will be no tragedies
lullabies they all sound like sirens now
just like heather rhodes when she was 17 years old
put another cigarette out in the square of my back
memories might last for years
and birthday cakes they always taste like crap
this isnt an insult
to your intelligence
- Ignorant Piece of Shit
Looking right around you
And how will i know
When you'll decide to jump
Jump out of a window
Falling faster i can imagine
The way you'd roll your eyes
Before you hit the ground
Telling everyone you know
- Lazy Eyelids
Trading your eyelids for a nightcap
(So what was it)
No one has to know
(There you go)
Your light is all out
(??)
Saving all your yawns in a jar
(So what was it)
- low budget slow motion soundtrack song for the leaving scene
how long will you be gone
how soon till you'll come home
where is your sweetheart
who shelters her from the cold now
absence only made our hearts grow colder
I will be waiting
I'll just keep waiting for you
will you remember the feelings and colors
- One Night Stand
If I could just see straight
I'd probably head straight for the door
Please don't ask me what my thoughts are
'Coz I don't care about yours
Must be a hole in my hat
Where my thoughts are slipping out of my head
And it doesn't really matter now
- Phantom Fireworks
I will fall for your lies
When you tell them twice
Like the five small words that you always say
That you honestly needed to change
Did you sleep alright through the lightning storm?
Should I close the blinds?
Should I lock the door?
Because you honestly needed to change
- September Come Take This Heart Away
this room has so many windows
too many windows
I've sat and watched the trees framed to fade outside
I hope the seasons treat you well
I hope the seasons treat you kind
as kind as I never was
as comforting as I never could be
I saw 2 fake long stemmed roses
- Sharin' A Hole
Diggin' the hole a whole lot deeper now
When two people share a hole.
Diggin' the hole a whole lot deeper now
When two people share a hole.
Bad skin and a wonderful shirt on
No, I've felt worse than this before
Sometimes I hope that I feel better come the sunrise
- silently leaving the room
Silently leaving the room
Gathering your thoughts from the floor
Hopefully no one will hear you
Silently closing the door
Down the long stairs to the hall
Out to the streets where you'll find
Rumored accounts and hearsay
Was it me who acted that way
- Sitting In The Smoking Lounge Of An Airport With A Broken Heart
We might as well talk about things on the news
maybe the weather cos its always true
we've got nothing left we can do
we might as well talk about anything
doesnt really matter, im sure you'll agree
we dont stand on common ground
we might as well talk, talk about you
and all the brilliant things that you do
- Sofisticated Fuck Princess Please Leave Me Alone
Still be calm what made me like you
so yes they have said things about you
and yes I see where its true
thought you could get all you wanted
by just thinking of yourself
its not your pretty face that matters
and I think you need some help
so please just leave me the hell alone
- Some Days Are Better Than Others
Tonight I start to fade
And I'm starting to think things arent so great
Life would feel alright if I could just remember what I did last night
Why drag the hours from the clock on the wall
Didn't count at all.
It always breaks my heart
Seen everyone
- Sophisticated Fuck Princess Please Leave Me Alone
Still recall
What made me like you
Oh yes
They have
Said things about you
And yes
See
Where it's true?
- superhero
there's banging on the wall
it's 5am – I've got no sleep at all
just thoughts of how I might struggle through tomorrow
too much time in one day
too much time to occupy
boring thoughts
and boring moods
and boring bedtimes
- the color that your eyes changed with the color of your hair
Seal this envelope with a heart that's been
Beaten black
Beaten blue
Beaten all over again
Don't leave out a single thing
Send it off with wings
An anecdote to ease the pain that you feel
Every time that you smile at the mirror
- The Part About The Vine That's Growing Through The Window And Reaching Toward My Bed
read all the words upon the note
that you handed me so insincerely.
what did you expect for me to say
when you had to ask how it made me feel?
your handwriting was perfect.
you spelled everything correctly,
except for one small tiny thing
that i wouldn't mention anyways.
- The Part About The Vine Thats Growing Through The Window And Reaching Towards My Bed
Read all the words upon the note
That you handed me so insincerely.
What did you expect
For me to say
When you had to ask
How it made me feel?
Your handwriting was perfect
You spelled everything correctly
- They'll Only Miss You When You Leave
not another sunrise another
another dry stale taste in your mouth
you walked away from waking up
inside the house
depending on the calm
you've been waiting for
thoughts spark a song
you loved so long ago
- To Be There Now
Sometimes you get what you wish
i dont have to remember here
you're really close this time
i think its better to keep in your head
all the things you tried to have
maybe we already had the good times
maybe we left them behind
so forget the way it made you feel
- Tucson
You've been gone so long
You can never go home again.
You've been gone so long
You can never go home again.
You've been gone so long
You can never go home again.
You've been gone so long
- Unfaileable
I'll tell myself that
That I'm not standing here
Convince myself that
I'm standing somewhere else
Where we can make believe all of our friends from enemies, where,
Where we can make believe it all.
But now you're not making any sense
