He was a white man in a tan land
A dreamer in the hay
He broke down inside the silence of the day

But the tall man gave him the bird
and he lost his chance at fame
he was dying because of a misspelled name

She was a beautiful girl in a beautiful world
Spotlight shone in her eye
just like the flash of red and blue from her DUI

Now she's out searching for cans
to pay her way to neverland
with needles in her pockets and huxley in her hands

Doesn't Garageband make the best drum samples?

A metaphor for the trails and tribulations of independence in modern times. 

I remember when I got Ebola
Ate me from the inside out
Spread to my girlfriend and my parents
Who's gonna do the laundry now?

Ebola Waltz

Blue Rain Parade

You take my eyes the way the stars take the night
Your charms they have their harms and live up the hype
as you thrive no vow in this world can survive

but when the flames start to take hold
the fangs of fire are vogue
in spite of trying to be wise
crashing my heart in a nosedive
There’s no choice

You roll the dice the way you constantly lie
I’d place my bets on you if the house would allow it
You lose your spark if you are always the blind

Because the flames start to grow cold
Your games have got me bored
In spite of trying to be wise
Love has no fear of folding
I would never be any use
if you were cheating alone

You roll your eyes and say nothing at all
That’s everything I want to hear and more
Sailors would know the calm before the storm

And the flames spread through my core
the air is an act of war
in spite of trying to be kind
Love has no place for wild boars
I always fall with you down the stairs 
Toppling onto the floor

I love the way you bite when we fight
It reminds me of the beast that lies inside
It takes a monster like you to be by my side

and the flames start to take hold
these fangs are tired and sore
If for the pain and all the like
You and I are quite alright
Hold your poise with the shadows they're
out of our reach so rejoice

She tells me it’s wonderful
I act just like a grown up
All of the time

I tell her she’s beautiful
before she’s gone for brazil
She starts to cry

Is it alright
if I 
Don’t mind

It takes a shower in Mexico
a pack of turkish royals
Her best friend moves tomorrow

I spit in her face
We fall about the place
A recipe you can borrow

I’ll hold her close
for now

I dream of us
in the top bunk

shocked by the water
that wash away tomorrow

Take care of her
for me
Brazil

She tells me it’s beautiful
I act just like a grown up
All of the time

She tells me to share
with another man
They’ve got tickets for the morning*

Is it alright
if I 
Don’t mind

I dream of us
in the top bunk

shocked by the water
that wash away tomorrow

As long as she is happy
I will love her still

Take care of her
for me
Brazil

“The Future They Stole”

When it’s time to make your stand
fill your head receive your bread 
I think that’s how it’s suppose to work
that’s what mother always said

Bells are ringing run run run
Don’t be late you need a job
Bells are ringing fun fun fun
feel free to join the mob

and you’re the one who pays the price
and it requires more than money
I think it’s time for you to go
fight for the future they stole 

darkness clouds this time of month
days collect like raindrops
I can live this week on bread
if I need no doctor

and you’re the one who pays the price
and it requires more than money
are you gonna fit the mold or
fight for the future

Chained by this training until I am old
the minute I bite it a sucker was born
fight for your right
to live out your life
fight for the future they stole 

when it’s time to raise your stand
fill their hearts with hope and bread
teach them with a shelf of books
I think that’s better than this death

and you’re the one who pays the price
and it requires more than money
and i’m about to lose control
fight for the future
fight for the future
fight for the future they stole
