To Hold 05:27
Romance Shook my head clear from clarity I had no lust for you I had no strings to stroke But to pluck, and to hold Bumblebee goes buzzin’ Through my canopy Landin’ on flowers in front of me to love But never to hold Your face is laced in the back of my, In the back of my brain I didn’t love for 3 years I wrote some songs in my solitude Reflection on who I know I wanna be Led my mind to you Love that never was Your face is laced in the back of my, In the back of my brain
2.
Tip-toe through an hour in the park Trying to decide what’s real what’s not Playing god But who am I to decide Maybe it’s all just an illusion Maybe I control the path I’m on And I’m a disembodied soul in a barren white world And I need a car and I Need a job to get where I want To make society proud, then again, Maybe it’s just a thought I could walk the world on a big wet bottle of dirt I could jump from a building and it might not even hurt Then again, Maybe that’s just a thought And I don’t know why I find Pomegranates so pretty And I don’t know why I associate Los Angeles with death I would fly to Australia just to meet one Kangaroo If I had to choose one soul to be real with me I think it’d be you

Now did you read What the sign told you? Oh the great October Whiskey guzzling monster Is on the prowl To take a bow in your hometown In Sedona I became a red rock roaming reaper Enter Georgia I became a sweaty humid mess Take me back To New York City I’ll see my name in the lights and soon after forget. And it’s alright I guess I’m fine Slip on my shoes another day Another time It looks to be ‘Bout 83 And I’m down because the sun’s been out every day this week Monotony Carolina, what’s the time? We’ve got a problem to solve when it’s light Get your coffee Get your Pot Get the day going Get the day go
4.
Shut the door and climb the stairs Kick off your shoes let down your hair And sit inside your own mind And sit inside your own mind Turn of the lights and your cell phone On Friday night at 8pm And sit inside your own mind And sit inside your own mind
5.
Walk in the room like it’s your next queue Throw the peaceful air out the room Stomp the welcome mat Like it gave you a look Open the door and all your masks come off If I wanna talk it’ll be Over Your Dead Body Take my pipe and throw it in the trash Kick off your heels start cleaning up the ash Tell me to stop staring at your ass If I wanna talk it’ll be Over Your Dead Body I want a lot of things I want you I’m jealous of everyone you bother to talk to I’m threatened by the way your body moves If I wanna talk it’ll be over your dead body
6.
We’ve got a problem With infinite solutions but I can’t choose one So we can’t move on And there’s a bell In the cemetery And it rings out over the dead and those mourning I too lost love but I lost it to life I too lost hope but I found it in time Your are the cop and you are the robber You are the vigilante by day and the thug by night You are the activist screaming out for justice And you are the hunter killing things you will not eat You are the fisherman and you You are the swordfish You are the crumbling tale in the ruins left of Rome Your are the brute but you, you claim you are the thinker But nothing you think is anything that you own What’s it to own but to pay a little justice? When all is stolen as is all eventually The story is there it is script into the soil But you can’t see it, So you don’t care. And smoke again is floating all around the air.
