The Kids Don't Stand A Chance

Broken, I was
At its best it's in your head
Everything was going well
Until that stupid trend

The cold can't kill us
Just bends us into shapes
And tells us to go
Where we wouldn't think

Back out east to New York City I will go
Way down Forsythe I will follow you
Oh, I will follow you

Oh, You're the best that I've got
Why can't you see
When I'm twenty three
Nothing I say will matter to anyone
Oh, why can't you see
Oh, you're just for me
As fucked up as it seems
We'll make it out safe
And we'll both leave

Oh, you wrote me a love note
But what does it say?
This brew's got me asking
This brew's got me asking
No.

Oh, You're the best that I've got
Why can't you see
When I'm twenty three
Nothing I say will matter to anyone
Oh, why can't you see
Oh, you're just for me
As fucked up as it seems
We'll make it out safe
And we'll both leave

When I'm Twenty Three

I've been working nights and longer shifts
Just to get you out of this
There's no foreseen end to draw a clue
So what else should I do?

Do
What should I do?
Oh, what should I do?

Pack a bowl and head to fishing bridge
Just to get me out my skin
Fill me up to watch me tumble down
It's so much fun to get around

Do
What should I do?
Oh, what should I do?

Fishing Bridge

My mind isn't full but I can make it
You're trying so damn hard not to fake it
I can't focus on your eyes no more
And giving in is too much a chore

Too far into the haze
To really care these days
Surprised you've stuck around
I love the way you sound
When you're calling out the names of all my friends

Oh, I quit trying years ago
I found it feels so right

I quit trying years ago
It feels so...

I Quit Trying Years Ago

Back to gray again
Not sure how to stay
Near the red or blue
The way I felt when I was you

But I know
Time will tell
It's all gonna be okay again 

When I was you
I swore to myself that you were gold
But now I fade behind the shelf
That you never saw coming again

So tell me how to feel
About all the things you put in my head
And tell me how to act
To ensure I'll still be your friend

XO SOS
I've lost sight before
Six bars until you cry
Do your best or try

Six years down the drain
But I still remain
So tell her I said Hi
Support's against the sky

Back to Gray

Take the wheel, my love
I can't see straight
But I wish to inhabit all the atmosphere you give me

Steal the show again
Did you learn last time?
That the world, in fact, revolves around you

Games always start
I couldn't pass go
Bet you wanted your way out of this, I know
Flash it goes
But I'm not around
Oh no, I know you got you got your way from this

I fucked it up again
I can't learn this time
But to pass my days
I'll pretend I'm you
(I'll pretend I'm you)

The homeless needed Jesus
So you built one downtown
How pointless does that sound?

The snow is such a drag
On everyone in town
But no one seems to know that here

So I'll wait
Till you try
To keep it
In line
In line

The colour of your eyes
Should not deplete those in charge
You better count your stars

You sample just one fraction
Of what is true
And you claim it's wrong

So I'll wait
Till you try
To keep it
In line

In line you wait
For the new and shiny thing
But it won't help
At all

The blank face I'm staring down
Is like a pistol with a mouth
And some eyes to gaze right back

So I'll wait
Till you try
To keep it
In line
In line

Nativity (In Line)

Spooking Out The Neighborhood

Dana

I could analyze your eyes
Would I find your careless lies?
I deliberate and surmise sometimes
But I, I think I'll let impulse decide

Fear is the mind killer
Fear gets me where I need to be

Don't drown my bursting ambition
With thoughts of failed ignition
I think that I think too much
I think I'll stop for a while

(Marimba sings us it's own beautiful song in the key of Sam's feelings)

I was unstoppable and tearless
Now I'm brain dead and fearless
I'm colorblind, I think in extremes
Now all I see is red

Fear is the Mind Killer

I can't read minds
But sometimes I try
And although you're in love with Pierre,
I guess I'll just sit right here

The concrete feels fine
Up and down my spine
But I'll get my chance to shine

So take your time
and I'll sit in line
To hope you're mine
Until our silent decline

Kick me, I wanna feel that boot
Slam square into my jaw
Corrode the waste from my face and replace it with his grace
And give me all your old plates, my friend.

Purloin my mind
You seemed so kind
You'll miss outright
My audible incline

Pierre

The year that you're awake
Is just the time it takes to hide your old mistakes
So hollowed out to where you know just what I mean
We're drinking gasoline like we love it

So shell out,
Don't doubt
What you heard just must be true,
It was born from me and you
But the matter of the fact is we're too far gone to tell

(swim back to shore, go back for more than what you bargained for)

So take it all like dope in stride,
Be sure to cure your appetite
It's everywhere you go
It's everywhere to go
Your misters and the misses say
It makes your mind fade away
It keeps you up at night
That's only true in light
and light flows on within and without you
But the matter of the fact is the UV's hard to see

Will you wait for me stay?
Or will you desert me again?
Will you stay

Matter Of The Fact

and when the rain came down, 
it washed us all around
and when the ship fell through,
we made another two
out of wood we knew would rot
on the beach to our new spot
we were given all the glory left for God
forgot

we'll meet in the Trees
you'll grow the Leaves for the Tea

When The Rain Came Down

How I wish that you were here
to keep me on path between my ears
the flashes and the cracks will all run cold
because I'll still love your greens and golds

what will it take to step outside and scream that you're in overdrive?
Once more, I don't know where you're going
Us and them? it's us then I
and I don't need no alibi
for once I can see where we're going
where we're going

Grow my vines and tell me lines again
and when we're done having fun we'll send
some postcards or a letter to the men
stating that we will be back again
to find the lies
and compromise
the way we see ourselves
the way we see ourselves
as glass and rings
we aint these things
let's value all ourselves
let's value all ourselves 

(trees will stay
'cause Ivy will stay
and Scarlett will stay)

Trees (Demo)

I can't read minds
but sometimes I try
and although you're in love with Pierre
I guess I'll just sit right here
'cause the concrete feels fine
up and down my spine
but I'll get my chance to shine

So take your time
and I'll sit in line
to hope you're reminded
until our silent decline

Kick me I wanna feel that boot
slam square into my jaw
corrode the waste from my face
and replace it with his grace 
and give me all your old plates, my friends

purloin my mind
but you seemed so kind
you'll miss outright
my audible incline
