I’m never gonna let you go
I’m never gonna make you cry
I’m never gonna let you know
That I often only want to die

But I'll wonder
If you see me
Behind my eyes

And I will
Not
Cause you
Yes I will
Not
Because you.
Because you
Are not mine.

I’m never gonna make you wait
I’m never gonna keep you near
I’m never gonna celebrate
Some profane desire for fear

But I’ll ponder
The silence we-
Never mind

Because You (early demo)

Who are you foolin'?
Braggadocio
You cannot fathom
What you can't know
We're more than bodies
But we grow old
I won't apologize
For letting go

I need a purpose
Some walls to defend
Or some simple silence watching
The whole world end

I made a promise
To disengage
I'll be your anchor
So you can stay
If we survive this
Slow karmic wave
I won't apologize
For being sane

I need a purpose
Some walls to defend
Or some simple silence watching
The whole world end

A Ghost Town Hymnal (demo)

driving down this highway line
evil willie warms our bones
nebraska’s blaring on all sides
ma’s in the back seat sitting all alone
i love you man, you gotta know
the girl ya love, she made ya cry
made a mess of your home
so we ride just to feel alive
to forget the debts we owe
i love you man, you gotta know

so we’ll drink this bottle down
speeding away from our sins
what once was lost cannot be found
so we don’t need no war to win
we’re better off chasing the wind

open up another pint 
twenty miles from mexico
out of gas and out of mind
i guess it just goes to show
i love you man, you gotta know
now we walk this highway line
we got nowhere else to go
out of cash and out of time
i guess i could just go sell my soul
i love you man, you gotta know

so we’ll drink this bottle down
speeding away from our sins
what once was lost cannot be found
and we don’t need no war to win
we’re better off chasing the wind
it warms my heart to call you friend

the ballad of deathrockboy and big eagle

you paint a perfect picture of jealousy complete
with all the defamation you concede
it was always there waking you screaming from sleep
in the silent cancer of memory
in every fabled weak attempt to breach
the horrors of the vows we'd speak

and i wonder what that leaves for me
you're so fucking honest i want you to lie
to me

so this is my surrender as i gaze at monuments
built from broken hearts that beat beneath
the stars you loved were martyred and they took it as compliments
i guess it's kind of fair that you're the thief
stealing all the faith i never seem to seek
in all that ever was will ever be

and i wonder what that leaves for me
you're so fucking honest i want you to lie
to me

Turtles All The Way Down

I wish the year was still '97, and I was still falling short of heaven. But the truth is that I know much better now, and yet I fail anyhow.

Judas Ninety Seven

when you say that you love me,
i can't say anything.
cause what does love mean
when i know you love everything?
i love to sing all the words
to the songs you adore,
but i wish that you could
sing to me alone.

cause you're all that i need
but you'll never agree.
your heart is too free
to be tied down
by someone like me.

you know who you are.
all i know is i'm not the one.
but who gives a damn
when i know you know everyone.

cause you're all that i need,
but you'll never agree.
your heart is too free
to be tied down
by some sucker like me.
