Evil in My Head
02:31

yeehaw
there's an evil in my head
and it wants you to become it
if you could leave it all behind
you'd be rewarded with silence
you could tear up right away
you could go on a holiday
there's blood dripping from the blinds again, today
eh
it's the name of someone dead
got written on the back of it
now we talk inside my head
sometimes I wish you were just here instead
there's an evil in my head
and it wants you to become it
if you could leave it all behind
you'd be rewarded with silence
in the back of the artist's car
there's a faded sticker of a cartoon star
(c'mon eh!)
I don't want to talk about it
tell them nothing
tell them nothing
there's an evil in my head
and it wants you to become it
if you could leave it all behind
you'd be rewarded with silence
you could give up right away
you could go on a holiday
there's blood dripping form the eyes we made today, eh
eh

Soapsud Clown
03:34
|
|||
dog chain
sign rain
dried teeth underneath
dried fruit afternoon
walk (talk) pain
somethings never change
that's why you have to write them down
a poet writes "a maZe" next to a familiar face
an actor's set breaks down
now you don't see him around
cus he's a soapsud clown
(is he?) x 4
he could be anything he wanted to
a soapsud clown
tears running, face down on the avenue
a soapsud clown
he could be anything he wanted to a soapsud clown
I'm in the back of the van reading something
strange on my mind now I think of it time to
I'm in the back of the van writing something
strange on my mind now I think of it all the time
peace, respect, eternal
moonlight on your earth's journey
Peace, respect, eternal
Blue light on your earth's journey
new light on your earth's journey

Premature Ejaculation
02:52

premature ejaculation
I can read the writing on the wall
gatorade at the gas station
when you took a trip last fall
I'm pickin' at the paint and rubber
I need to buy a bed cover
I'm thinking of a lucky number
remember to get eggs and butter
paint a picture of a rose and dry it
do a haircut in the mirror and dye it
truth, fiction
wound, friction
premature ejaculation
someone threw a soda at the mall
cigarettes at the gas station
you shouldn't really make that call
I regret too damn much
I can see the hurt, the crutch
intervening with the shadow daily
haven't looked in the mirror lately
when you feel it in your chest
just wish em all the best

Time With You
02:38
|
|||
time can be so cruel
time can be so sad
all my time with you though
is time that made me glad
time with you is sweet
all around good
we both felt connected
and you felt understood
I hope it never ends
I hope it's never bad
you can take the cat baby
I'll take out the trash
time can make you think
and thinking it ain't bad
day old vomit in the sink
and the temperance of your dad
time won't heal a wound
when your pickin' at the thing
take a seat inside the gym, and then
it's nice to hear your mother sing again
I hope it never ends
I hope it's never sad
don't slip through the cracks baby
cus time with you ain't bad

Jumbo Jet
03:23
|
|||
secret desire to wear a dress
lipstick and blush and all the rest
I want to live but sometimes want to die
promised myself that I'd always try
dear diary, Andy (Kaufman)'s back
there's more of me, so that's that
I want to breathe in sunsets, greedy blue
the sand's not steady, so I take off my platform shoes
is it sexual?
home on the range
muscular hand that reaches for the coffee cup
you've had a day before I'm even up
I wanna laugh with you at the comedy club
faded tattoo of a bunny, you were young
I wasn't ready to hear about your pain
I wasn't there in a certain kinda way
but you found god in the form of a jumbo jet
I hope your love heals you and helps you to forget
and I hope that it helps me
faded tattoo of a bunny (x3)
