From my mouth
Now more and more everyday
Words that have nothing to say
Well I'll find something someday

I thought that I was better off
I was wrong
I am where I don't belong
In a flash I am gone
To return when the sun shines again

Oh my god
Words that seem so out of place
I wish you'd get out of my face
Well I'll find something someday

So I Fall Again

I can't say if this feeling coming over me is real
But I know its something you can't steal
So I'll buy another problem to approach
Sell a virgin lie that can't be touched

So I'll fall again
So I'll break through this rotten piece of wood again

I can't say if this here f**king subject should be dropped
But I know its something you can't stop
So I'll buy another pickup line and sigh
And pretend that everything is alright

Recently Distressed

Dear recently distressed:
I am sorry to inform you that I lost your kid's address. You see
my wings are on the fritz, and I can't even get up off the
ground. I'm really sorry for this mess because it all came
crashing down.
Can I remember? Someone please tell me how to do my job or I'm
out of work and speaking frankly you will be out of luck.

Can't Take It

Something strange
Somehow I get the feeling
I'm where everyone knows your name
Iit's not much different but
It's surely not the same
You'll find peace in knowing now
I'm so sick and tired of hearing myself
Believe me I never guessed you had one
Up your sleave well there I go

So smile you've done your part
But I'm waiting for someone to say
I can't take it anymore yeah
Can't take it anymore yeah
What's so wrong with being sad?

Left alone I was stuck to go over
All the things that I've done wrong
Sure I was stuck in a hole
But now we've got a song
After all the love is gone
Where did you get off saying
Iit's not so lame
We've had it different
And I know we're not the same
Well there I go

Can't take it anymore
What's so wrong with being sad?

Local Black and Red

Sitting in your room
Drinking your perfume
Wondering which day of the week
I'll die on now
I'm lying in your bed
Unscrewing your head
Trying to figure out what's wrong
Inside, so you don't hate yourself tonight

So now you fall asleep
Inside a tambourine
Next to broken headphones and your
High school yearbook, I
Wrote on the final page
Wish I could've stayed around
To watch the last band play
Hey hey hey, I heard
They just broke up yesterday
Frequenting the local black and red
And how that band played
You really had to stare
You'd hardly be aware that you were blinking
Yeah . . .

Don't Get Down

I want to live on the moon
and never see a human again
And as the earth explodes
I'll light a candle for my dead best friends
I don't enjoy this place
my best friends are so mean

I look up to the sky when I am sad
because the planets don't get down on me
I just want to fall asleep . .

I want to live on the moon
and never see a human again
And as the earth explodes
I'll light that candle for my dead best friends

I look up to the sky when I am sad
because the planets don't get down on me
I just want to fall asleep and dream
of a place that's warm

I look up to the sky when I am sad
because the planets don't get down on me

Dying of Silence

So as I stand here dying of silence, tonight
The quiet spell you slung at the ceiling fan will return again
Why?
I ask myself sometimes
Dine on small talk after school
Why?
I ask myself sometimes
So as the mood gets darker and darker tonight,
I can't help but feel a little uncomfortable, all right?
Why I ask myself sometimes
Dine on small talk after school

Why . . .

Down in a Second

Can I find a place of solace to unscale?
Should I take a social climb? Should I fail?
Have we gathered here to buzz or just to roach?
Have I bought another problem to approach?

If you want to leave me
If you want to just throw me away
I'll be down in a second

How come now it seems that you no longer care?
How can I live a life that seems no longer fair
Have we noticed yet that this is not a game?
Have I bought a fast way to a claim to fame?

If you want to leave me
If you want to just throw me away
I'll be down in a second

Lisa (Does It Hurt You?)

Behind the bleachers
I'll tell you a secret
Of locker room dreams
Lunchbox angels
will you tell me your story?
Will you go with me?

Does it hurt you? Does it pain you?
To say the words that mean so much to me
Does it hurt you? Does it pain you?
Or did you lock it up to hide away?

We are the laziest people
there could be
For we only wrote one verse
But I asked Jacques what I
should put in place of this
He said just leave it
Oh and one more thing . . .

Rest Easy

It's all clear, no need for you to fear
Nothing's under the bed tonight
It's all right, no need for you to fright
Nothing's after you tonight

If I pretend that I'm asleep
Will that prevent from making me their next meal

It's all right, no need for you to fright
You've only lost your sense of sight
Rest your head and dream yourself to bed
Or else I won't sleep well tonight

If I pretend that I'm asleep
Will that prevent from making me their next meal

If I hold out til the light of day
Will they disintegrate away?

Sleep Machine

Some things melt away as night dissolves to day
Some things only stay, silent darkness slowly kills me

I turn to you and stir your blank expression

You're the one for me
Help me get to sleep
(nighty night goodnight)
Something Isn't right
Seems that every night I need you

More and more, you take me away
More and more, I need you to stay
More and more, distract me from the instant loss of light
Mon and more, I need you tonight.

Come, lets go for a while
And pretend you're mine for a while
Come, lets go.
More and more, you take me away
More and more, I need you to stay
More and more, distract me from the instant loss of light
More and more, I need you

Goodnight
