Welcome

Come out, you said I had a head start
Well I looked around you were right behind me
And it might all be in our heads
But we'll believe it if it makes us feel better
Oh yeah, that's better
Welcome, to the daily grind
You might lose your mind
But slowly, and over time
It'll be all right, it'll be all right
Hopped up, on so much delusion I'm getting others high
That's a sign
Stuck in what seems to be a pattern that's colored in
By someone with charcoal and doesn't give a shit
Well it's nice to feel important but god damn
Won't you let your ego die
Oh yeah, that's better
Welcome, to the daily grind
You'll find your time
Wasting, before your eyes
But you'll be just fine
Welcome, to the daily grind
You might lose your mind
But slowly, and over time
It'll be all right, it'll be all right

Lachrymose
03:37
|
|||
I'm stalling hard, didn't get here like this
And I couldn't, give up too soon
That's a shitty start, to a wonderful tune
Not faking it this soon
Lachrymose, when ya started
At the end, it's still cold
I'd like to know that it's not all up in the air
Say you're broken, looking for a cheap repair
I've the tools but, not the time to spare
You would lie to me, to get anywhere
And here we are, fresh out the factory
There's a smell in the air, but the wind blows
I'm taking notes, and wanna see it through
I still get pretty loaded, but keep a good attitude
Lachrymose, when ya started
At the end, it's still cold
I'd like to know that it's not all up in the air
Say you're broken, looking for a cheap repair
I've the tools but, not the time to spare
I would lie to you, to get anywhere

Reminder
04:23
|
|||
Ya woke up thinking, that somebody was gonna kill you
Light has filled the room, it's a dreary morning
Roll over slowly, feel the dread return
Feel her glaring through the back of your head
Do we have to remind you what you said
Do we have to remind you, you're already dead
Been taking a lot of walks, getting longer every day
There's a heavy weight on you, doesn't matter what you said
It hurts to trash the car, when you've taken it so far
Is the best that you can do, just to clench your teeth and carry on

Whores
03:53
|
|||
I'm a wily thing
Tied to many strings
If you pull one wrong
I might go off on you
But what can I do?
I'm stuck inside the same machine as you
Could you tell me how it works
I'm always the one who gives in first
I'm thinking 'bout whores in the sunshine
Soft skin glistening but their eyes have tears to hide
I'm thinking 'bout whores in the sunshine
Hey man, we're all selling ourselves in this life
And there's nothing worse
than finding yourself burned
by a life of lessons learned wrong
what have they been teaching us all along
I'm thinking 'bout whores in the sunshine
Soft skin glistening but their eyes have tears to hide
I'm thinking 'bout whores in the sunshine
Hey man, we're all selling ourselves in this life
I'm thinking 'bout whores in the sunshine
Soft skin glistening but their eyes have tears to hide
I'm thinking 'bout whores in the sunshine
Hey man, we're all selling ourselves in this life

Trixies

I've never felt ghosts surround me like this
But when the sun is shining, the vacancy is bliss
Grass is caught in patches where it doesn't belong
The occasional straggler refuses to move on
Reminding me, that not everyone has gone
Ya say the city, has gone to the dogs
Ya say the city, has gone to the dogs
But they're feeling, like they're doing all right
Stuck in Hamtramck not a clue what to do
Lo and behold, we met a friend or two
The first time I heard Louisiana Boogaloo
It's not very often, you feel so comfortable so soon
Ya say the city, has gone to the dogs
Ya say the city, has gone to the dogs
But they're believing, that they're doing just fine

Camel
02:56
|

I'm a wave, I'm a wave and I'm rolling across the ocean
I'm awake, I'm awake and I'm walking across the ocean
Will you find me here, can you find me
Can you find me here, will you find me
I heard a sage, I heard a sage scream everything's breaking down, down, down
Creature camel crossing over
Caught between the sun and water
Who will lead and who will follow
Creature camel holding water
Oh it's a current of some kind
A dark art reading of a dark mind
That old aching feeling serpentine
Up the spine, up the spine
Oh there's a shadowy figure
And it's getting nearer and nearer
Ever taunting come to the healer
Do not fear her, do not fear her
Oh it's a torrent of some worth
Of child killing mother after it's birth
Of dead hands directing a blank verse
Is this curse, is this curse
But you couldn't scar your own eyes blind
Dark enough to see the stars I guide
It's hard to enough to feel your own thoughts die
In the back of, your mind

Selling Ourselves
02:26
|
|||
You seem to me, like you would be
Open to almost anything
Come over and, ask for a treat, but all I've got's
A lot of phobias and conceit
But if you don't mind, if you play dumb and blind
This old facade of mine, just might do fine
Here's to selling yourself short
Drink up it's our one resort
I seem to be, down on my knees
An awful lot, I grovel, you walk
I've had this bag, slung on my back
All of this time, waiting in lines
Was there a plan, buried in sand
One we forgot
Here's to selling yourself short
Would you hear me still?
Would you hear me still?

See Me Out
04:21
|

I’ll paint a picture and it’s gonna be free
Of all this blood and tyranny
Thinking that I had a chance to do something big
But I don’t remember what it happened to
Be my baby please I would grovel at your feet
If you only knew the things that I’ve been thinking
I loved the tone of your voice, when ya told me to
Show you what I’m worth
I’ve opened up a bit too much
Feel exposed and emptied out
Suffering a shortage of what one might describe
As gas in the engine, cause I’m falling behind
All these faces is a man who really can’t hide
From a burning sense of urgency
To let the facade die
I loved the tone of your voice, when ya told me to
Show you what I’m worth
I’ve opened up a bit too much
Feel exposed and emptied out

Cradles
04:09
|

I would never try to move you
Though you seem so hollow
They're whispering 'round me, incredibly
I hear nothing
If you were the spark, I should have put you out
Before you burned it down
Thoughts of rockers and white cradles
You're flaunting it 'round me
And blatantly, but you don't seem to notice
It's fine, it might last, but the world moves fast
And I'm slowing down
Take your time please, away from me
I'm sore and disgusted
Thoughts of rockers and white cradles
And you may ask to stay in touch
I think I might just try and get the hell out of here
Thoughts of rockers and white Cradles

Mysteries
04:12
|
|||
Everyone's talking 'bout these mysteries
Things that we can't see
Though you complain about what others believe
Ya never say too much
About what causes you to toss and turn
When faced with the strange
All of your thoughts they whither and die
We could get a little wiser
It's so hard
And I've grown so bored
It's so hard
And I've grown so bored
No one seems to confide in me
I guess that's a treat
What would I say to a person in pain?
Get used to the taste of it
I'm always stuck in silent wonder
When staring in the face, of problems too great for me to change
I could get a little wiser
It's so hard
And I've grown so bored
It's so hard
And I've grown so bored
