Will You Be My Friend?
you make sure that your sure for sure
and it wont flip up the tape recorder
we document this life by nature

so dont let out your dirty secrets
trapped between the death receipts
of everyone you've killed with your chords

by now you got a grasp on thinking
fear or life but not of sinking
this braindead loose nut tragic nonsense theory begins
one plus nine will not repeat
and multiplying minds defeats
this logic sleeps in the cityscapes of the heavens

my brain has stopped its trained routine
we live only to one day leave
why is there no reason to beleive

by now you got a grasp on thinking
fear or life but not of sinking
this braindead loose nut tragic nonsense theory begins
one plus nine will not repeat
and multiplying minds defeats
this logic sleeps in the cityscapes of the heavens

i cant seem to calculate emotions
im breathing into empty oceans
of so many facts and no romance

life is a just a lab experiment
designed as a maze
more like a death trap
you choose your path
its you, who's the silly rat

creep down into a hole
homemade by you
lonely and self abbused
by human nature
because im fucking crazy
math, will you be my friend?

The Mimic
Like spiders we climb through our lives
Standing still on the outside, thats right you climbed behind....
Reality, the feelings you once knew, now you question yourself......
who are you? me? yes you. The lonely shadow that follows your every move.

You're catching on. Its not what you said.
Its what you forget, please erase my memory.

My sleep is reoccuring.
My timing is what I have be learning,
to slow down, and think about all this talking and fucking around.

Oh take control, your body on the floor, is this my role?
Lips stiched up and you're hidden from my ugly perfection.
Sip 2, 3 please come with me, talk a walk through my brain.

My sleep is reoccuring.
My timing is what I have be learning,
to slow down, and think about all this talking and fucking around.

Who are you? I roll my eyes back, your gone, I wink, you yawn.
Lips stiched up and you're hidden from my ugly perfection.
Sip 2, 3 please come with me, I cant escape these dreams that I've made

Ive convinced myself that we live for the entertainment of someone else.
Step right up folks, meet the vulnerable human.
You'll break when you bend, you'll break when you bend
Have you ever seen your breathe in the evening's cold air?
Well look closer, who is really there?
You're not fooling anyone. You work to hide. Your work to hide your time.
So carry on cowboy play your songs,
continue your smart allec routine and travel this land.
You now know, Im watching and who I really am.

My sleep is reoccuring.
My timing is what I have be learning,
to slow down, and think about all this talking and fucking around.

The Windowmakers Cathedral
I build windows in the cathedral of her heart. Do you know where?
It’s far past the front door where you once were let inside
and around the corner from the lobby where you were patient and standing in line.
It is here that I’m just beginning to learn the things that keep me thinking,
keep me alive.

I was never great with my hands and I’m terrible with instructions.
But I will make it my craft, I'll learn, I can adapt.
When rocks are thrown they shatter straight to the heart.
A minor dent or a crack, I'm here when you feel like falling apart.

Its all routine, sweep the floor for any debris and wash the windows clean.
You should open them up and let some fresh air inside,
"No, I might catch cold, it’s been a while" she replies.
Well darling, rocks cant break an open window and it really wouldn’t hurt to try.

Heartbroken Sailor From Neptune
nobody understands your thoughts
they think you're controlled by robots
you sit and lie awake
feel the wind hit the waves
you're sailin' off to outerspace

and every second you give
is a confused look misread
id give you everything
and you, you would take it
and thats the point

im alone and its cold
im all skin and bones
my hearts been shut off
direct signals from neptune
i think

dig your feet in the sand
lazy beach in japan
you realize you're dreamin'
cause the girls are pretend
and they're your servants
talk to yourself
nobody else
explain the world to you and me
thats all who's listneing
plug your headphones in

im alone and its cold
im all skin and bones
my hearts been shut off

Discovered Your Arms
so this is my song
im turning myself in
ive been charged with murder
for killing this relationship
sorry im so straight forward
i usually hide things in synonyms
but today i feel like an astronaut
i've discovered the world
and chosen your arms
so hold me like you never have
im fragile, not for guilt
but for protection
from falling apart
i've been shipped overnight to your heart
sorry it makes no sense
i just cant get you out of my head
take one step forward
and i promise i'll handle the rest
do the math, it should add up to a chance
one which i would like to take
you're like a blind-fold to me
i've lost complete direction lost my grip, lost my grip on perception
and i just wanna grace your lips

Dare You To Try
everyone seems to know me better than i know myself
i love how you got all figured out
i just put my arguments back on the shelf
so please, please, tell me about this disease
yeh the one thats fucking up my head
see, thats where things get a little bit skewed
don't try and pretend like you know what I've been going thru
like the way i hold it all inside
bottled up so ill never fall for love again
i dare you to try

its all a hoax, im just too afraid
this disguise will help me hide myself from the pain
I hate growing up, I hate everything
What happened to the days when we were happy
Be careful around me cause it is contagious
Before you know it, our girlfriends leave us
Then comes the fun of betrayel,
Everyone you ever knew or trusted wont be there
So count all your fingers, that's as long as it lasts
Before everyone you know just stabs you in the back
I dare you to try

Don't think twice, it only hurts more
And when you begin to breath right you land back on the floor
Never trust anyone, they always lie
And even when you think you feel right, you'll just want to die
I can still picture the way she smiles
If I could only hold her in my arms for a while
This bottle has become my medicaton
Her eyes yea they read like a prescription
And its worse, cause I just over-dosed on them
Oh my god, here we go again
I dare you to try

Loose Lips Sink Secret Ships
can you keep a secret?
and understand the truth beneath it
i was once told that truth behold
loose lips sink secret ships
i have to keep an eye on my lines
each word that leaves my lips is leaked
so pay attention i know you're mic'ed
and did i mention this song was mine
the real truth exists in my rhymes
and the following lines
have you realized
you live inside all of your own lies
i dont trust you
you've got a lot to prove
you're busted
and we're not buying

i dont trust you
you've got a lot to prove, forget you
you're busted
and we're not buying

we bend the rules of friendship
and you know the reasons
so dont tell me you were blind
you've been spying the whole time
so what do you think
im glad to know you're listening

i dont trust you
you've got a lot to prove, forget you
you're busted
and we're not buying

it seems like, we've been hanging on to yesterdays goodbye
we will never see this argument eye to eye

i dont trust you
you've got a lot to prove, forget you
you're busted
and we're not buying

you're sinking, dont sink me

So Scandulous
My heart is like a shotgun kickin' out barrels like a mobster.
Between me and you, I've been set up. I'm a patsy, It was so dirty.
Fingerprints and DNA we're in for it, guilty for being an easy sucker.
I dont want to kill her, but I gotta, cause i've been hired.
So say goodbye to her.
Tape over the mouth, arms tied to legs and her chair begins to shake, as she realizes her fate

Oh no, its not what you think.
I've never done this before.
But every single breath I breathe knocks me straight to the floor.
This time, I'm coming down with more.

Her voice is like the sunlight, breakin' the night, she's erasing my mind.
I have no strength, she can put me in her arms with the blink of her eyes.
Which are golden and have me tranquilized, I'm seeing double, and I like both sides.
Why do I do this everytime.

Our hands are like a radiotor, this is one cold winter.
Burning up and the rattling kicks.
The little hairs on my neck stand sooooo tall.
She blossoms like the colors of the leaves in the fall.
Wait, take two steps back dont let her whispers attach.
She's got a way of misdirecting, everything.

Recycled Minds
it goes without saying
that i've come to a point in life where losing
is only accountable if you've accepted
what someone else has told you, you cant do
well i agree, i cant do very much.
love has turned on me,
knowledge has lied to me,
and greed has burned me
so i will sit here and write the laws of living
never talk to anyone who doesnt listen.
appreciate the values of silence
and the metronome inside your head
stay on beat with breathing,
life is a beautiful thing
if you dont beleive in anything
than you're just matter taking up space
we all rely on each other's mistakes to capitalize on chance
remember that when someone truely offers you a hand
there is genuine beauty inside of everything
how you look at things dictates what you see in them
growth is a sign of strength
change is a sign of weakness
beleiving in signs is the weakest outlet for the scared and hopeless
but who wouldnt be scared, you were dropped on planet earth
with nothing more than a heartbeat and a blank instruction manual

Life In A Bottlecap
you can lay back in a haystack, stair up at the sky
pretend that you lasoed her heart, or that you're playing god
but what really exist is the pesimists of the truth
that tip down on your cowboy hat and make you wonder why

if its land full of so much faith
then how come we can get our lives straight?
i aint got time, for these problems of mine
but who am i to cry?

well i try and make my momma proud
but its times like these when it dont matter none
and all you need is love

so take out one knee at a time
forgiveness is a crime
who beleives in second chances?

you lie, but its okay tonight
we buy into bouquets and knives
to call out all the bluffs of time
because tonight luck is not on your side

you know, you know

a death to all my dirty lies

Over a bank account

Fuck that, I like my hat

But I've got a kaleidoscopic thought process
Can you divide the strange from plain?

To the boys and girls of our childhood
Glad we dreamt such grande ideas
As if a man who cant
Is now a man who could
Well now I'm prepared
To fuck it all up
Come on, you knew I would
I'm a lousy starnger
To the most familiar words
Did you think I'd say that?
I never thought I would
And to those claiming my sincerity
Please forgive me

Leave me alone

safe and sound
i'll slay the monsters underneath
safe and sound
i'll watch you darlin' as you sleep
everything will be
safe and sound with me
evertying will be
safe and sound......
with me
back to list of work
