night grenades...    check
hearing aid...   check
diary of unusual thoughts
room and board...   check
how's your mindset set
settle in lonely hearts

she says it's all my friends lips
moving just the same
only our lungs
only our tongues
will ever know it's only taste

they tell ya "you oughta' know"
they say  'it's time to go"
but you just got there?
ya hurt 'em all the time
the cost to ease your mind

you have a right to know 
how far you can go
past the clouds
don't let me go
alone to the party


Oughta' know
