Rubberband

i pull your hair together with a rubberband
you said you feel it all coming at you
like semi trucks down a two lane highway at night
we sat on your roof
and watch the sun be like yolk and spill
over the yard the farm the house
your leg your arm our lips our mouth

Warm & Dirty

yelling like canaries in our underground tunnel/cave
love our little city built on underground tunnel mazes
all the dogs are posing for their portraits
while your mom writes letters to her senator
holy and sacred hearts
warm and dirty love of mine
oh i love this love of mine/ heart of mine
living like a siren cuz we don't care what people think
there's magic in our pocket and we scatter it like cocaine
how do you undress me in a public place
my cloths are on
i'm blushing cuz our minds are making
holy and sacred love
warm and dirty heart of mine
oh i love this heart of mine/ life of mine
now we're driving off to a swimming hole with beach sand
Exie's in the back sleeping next to Camden
water's died blue blue as a baby's eye
we're jumping off of cliffs at their highest heights
holy and sacred hearts
warm and dirty love of mine
oh i love this love of mine/ life of mine

Salvage

walking to the trailer
walking from your car
walking to the trailer
we've come to get your stuff
you take down your tapestry
you take down your mushroom figurine
you take your posters off the wall
Smashing Pumpkins and Nirvana
you take down the letters one by one
that spell your daughters name
you said you'll never love like this again
i watch your lip grow fat
face like a bruised tomato
you're so strong you push the peddle down
and don't look in the mirror
back at home i remember
in my room i was sleeping naked
i heard you out in the yard
cussing and yelling
and tearing your love apart
you said you'll never love like that again
driving to the courthouse
driving to the center of town
the sky might crush us
so we hurry inside
that was the MAKING time
this is the taking time
i watch you scan the trailer
looking for a life to salvage
you take down that tapestry
you take down the mushroom figurine
you peel your posters off the wall
Smashing Pumpkins and Nirvana
you take down the letters one by one
that spell your daughter's name
you said you'll never love like that again
you said you're not a wife you're just you again

The Trash
02:01

baby i remember when you were mine
baby i remember
time it passed me by
and time laughed in my direction
if you call me i'll say that i'm sorry
and we can pick up the trash
if you don't call me i'll always be sorry
for turning us into nothing nothing at all

Peddlin
02:15
|
|||
|
rolling through life on two wheels
i thought it was the way to go
then i reached that highway
i found out that i needed four
peddlin back aint easy
when you're this far down the road
salvation's a thousand miles back
and two thousand more to go
so i'm peddlin down the road
i can feel my body burning
from trying to get up those hills
but the more that i peddle
the less that i can feel
and when it started raining
i had no where to go to stay dry
so i tried to build a little house
but the rain still got inside
so i'm peddlin down the road again
my mind burned up and my heart is full
but i'm peddling down that road
i blew my tire broke my chain
some mistakes will take everything
and you can't go forward you cant go back
stuck on the side of a broken track

Goddamn Dirty Drunk

goddam dirty drunk i'm here to tell you
that ever day that you've been gone has been a dream
you showed me what
loving life was the day that you walked out on me
goddam dirty drunk i can't forgive you
for all the things you did back in those days
but i know that i've got to thank you
for what you gave to me
although you tried to take it away
remember when you hated me
you said that i was the weak one
well i'm strong enough to not be like you
and i know that you know who you are now
and i know you wish to God that it wasn't true
goddam dirty drunk i hope you burn
i hope you drown in that fucking bottle that you love so much
until the day that i die
i'll never forget that beating that you gave me
with your crutch

my baby
she left me for another
i was stubborn i didn't change
i didn't wana
regret it floods me
i am under
leagues of water
hold me down
regret if haunts me
like your moonbeam
i am sitting in the darkness
my baby
she left me for another
i am stubborn i didn't change i didn't wana
where did the courage go
i don't know
to love you the way i used
where did the courage go
i don't know to love you the way i need to
my baby oh my baby

Thank You
03:00
|
|||
|
in the light of day i feel darkness run away
in the dark of night doubt collected body and mind
and i think thank you
to all the people who showed me lightness who gave me kindness
we all have a name
we have roles and roles that we play
i see you resist the small box i put you in
and i think thank you
for showing courage
when i could not see you for your greatness
and i think thank you
for showing lightness
for giving kindness
for showing courage

Sysiphus
02:01
|

|
last night i woke up high
and i believed that i could fly
i even tried it i stood on the roof and spread my arms to both sides
i touched my lips to my fingertips
and i prayed to whoever's god
i hope they heard me as i fell into the yard
singin
when will it end
the ups and downs and ups again
we push our stones
and watch them roll over us and down the hill
maybe a day will dawn when we're all gone
and the stones will fall
and Sisyphus will stay on top of his mountain
got off the bus at the stop
and i walked three blocks down to your house
your mom was in the kitchen makin somethin in her crockpot
you were up asleep in your bed
eyes heavy as two garage doors broken
and i'm trying to get in again
singin
when will it end?

The Party Song
02:40

|
you've got a bathtub but your heater won't turn on
you say it's warm when the water fills up
your gma sits under a heating pad and a quilt
she's been sewing for years but isn't done with yet
but at night it's a party of rotten fruit
your eyes they watch her as she moves around the room
the room is full of people and your eyes watch her move
you say you breathe too hard until your lungs taste like metal
you say you breathe too hard until youre dizzy and fall down
but at night it's a party of rotten fruit
the rooms are full of people so we turn our oven off
you say you've got a bathtub but your heater won't turn on
you say it's warm when when the party shows up
you're eyes they watch her as she moves around the room
she watches you
she watches you as you sit in the corner in your cloths
your eyes they watch her as she moves around
cuz you built all your walls and she sees you under them
but at night it's a party of rotten fruit
the rooms are full of people so we turn our oven off
you say you've got a bathtub but your heater won't turn on
you say it's warm when the party shows up
you say it's warm when the water fills up
