Shoulder
03:00

i'm so lonely that i could scream
or put my head on your shoulder
in the back seat coughing it out
i wish that i could've told ya
a damn shame it's always gonna be this way
go ahead i'll meet you in a little ways
and if i don't then kid i guess i'll see ya later
i do i won't i feel i don't
stay up til sunrise a room full of amnesia
nicotine i noticed all those burns on you
heavy eyes, sitting at the table with ya
i do i won't i feel i don't

Fever Bed
03:17
|

It's almost three i waited for you
i clipped your wings in your sister's bathroom
and i slithered here on my own
wearing your rope
through your garden bed on your lawn
tell me how come
see the leaves how they've fallen for you
tell me sweet stories of youth
then kiss my head and leave a stain
then go away
in my fever bed i'll sweat my pain
i'll find a way
i fell asleep in your seat of your car
while we drove around this town
looking for my house
i wish i could come back down

the Weather
03:10
|
|||
i love you so much
it makes me wanna throw up
i love you so much
and i blame it on the weather here
i write your songs with a sharpie
and i take it with the fumes
i'll count the weeks like days
cause damn i love you
i've got this envy that keeps
rotting my bones
i try to blame it on the weather
but i love the cold

Happy
02:30
|
|||
i think tonight i wanna fight my sweetheart
i put my hands up and say i've had enough
do you have the guts to do the same thing
you were in my dream
where you said you were happy
from all of those pills you took
but i saw your eyes close
you're hiding something
i fell asleep but i brought you
a flower from the other side
you were on my mind

Book
02:29
|
|||
don't look at me that way i am fine i am okay
i'm not some plane that you could land
and like a book upon a shelf i will leave you by yourself to age
i will leave you there to find your place
so don't act so betrayed and forlorn
it's been this way since you were born
and it'll stay that way until the day you die
and your cover is torn and cracked
and your spine looks as if though it's flat
i have no business reading that
so don't bother me
i'm fine where i am
so don't bother me
i'm fine in my sleep
alone

Hope
02:44
|
|||
she's got a face like a forest wet with rain
salty taste whiskey shakes
mother's love father's gun
watch your mouth or they'll wash it out
have some fun stare into the sun

These Days/Lady Smoke
03:07
|
|||
pass the factories and through the graveyards
lady, dance with me while it is right
and the clouds make irregular
and the trees lose their leaves
and the tombstones get heavier
in the winter breeze
Lady Smoke's always trying to get me alone
i'm hiding in her bathroom
she's talking on the phone
to some girl that she knows
i'm standing on the tile
wishing i would go home
these days i barely get by
these days i don't even try
