a lot of oohs and ahhs

If only the grass was greener If only my mind was clearer Let it fall Let it fall Tonight we'll soak scotch or whisky Tomorrow won't come. Leave the station cold and empty I can't come home Let it fall Let it fall The face that stole my heartbeat pushed away and out my mind Let it fall Let it fall Mistress with the gaping gown handsome with an unknown frown It's safe now, to close some eyelids Tomorrow won't come Let it fall Let it fall Flattened No more compassion Turn it upside down Let it fall.

Aileen W. 02:49
Oh Aileen, you gotta get a hold of me, because you know I can save you Oh you know I can save you. Remember me? We used to hide in the trees. And I told I could save you Oh, I told I could save you. Just sit and watch the flowers go by, So high, like the air in the sky Like we're dead already. Like we're dead already. *Unbalanced harmonica screams* Metal 'round your hands You killed 9 men. And no one can save you 'cept the judge and the court rule. Oh Aileen, you've got the better part of me And you know I will miss you Oh, you hope I will miss you. Say goodnight You're gonna sleep for a while And no one could save you Oh no one can save you Goodnight Goodnight Goodnight Goodnight

"Wake me up when the record stops playing", I said to him But he left me there to keep dreaming. I dreamt he left once again. Remember me no more. Just turn around Don't forget to pay the whore. Sweep me off to the soothing cold forest We'll speak no more. Make me feel like a beauty deserving you did once before "I just don't seem to have that strong feeling", he said to me, "But I'll catch you a train for the city I never see."

A business card hung on the wall. It read of white domination. As the sweet willow weeps, as the white water creeps into the fields, all safety is lost. It said, "you, you don't know me." Oh you, don't know me. Oh Custer please don't cry. Though the bones are dead and gone. Running and fleeing, no more believing that you showed how the west was lost.

He Said 02:53
Spinning circles through my head words I wish were never said, "it's over now, it's over once again", he said, "this time I'll leave and never come back" Finding ways, a reason just to escape He said, he said, "Take my hand I will never hurt you like they did." He said, he said, "Give me your heart, I will heal it." No need to feel so useless we will all find a reason deep inside slow down holding up this gruesome pace a slow and steady, simple race of love or not of love or not. He said, he said, "This time it's gonna be different." He said, he said "I love you." "You're the best." "You must be heaven sent." I think I'm hurt now. My heart it kind of hurts. I am alone now. Cold and restless. What can I say? Please now come this way. Please help me find the one I need until then, my heart, it will bleed It's over now it's over once again He said, he said, "I think I might have found someone else but you." He said, he said, "I think it's time for me to leave now, for good." He said, he said, "If you would fall, I would catch you." He said, he said, "You're so pretty." "You must be the most gorgeous thing I've seen" He said, he said, "I think I might have found someone else but you, but you." He said, he said, "I think it's time for me to leave now... for good."

Legendary 02:45
No one's born a legend. Paint on my face face face face. Face face face. Feeling kind of boring. Get out your can of mace mace mace mace. Mace mace mace mace. (Some doot-doots here and there) I think I will throw up. Will you please excuse me me me me. Me me me me. (more doots) Everybody (more doots)

Uh, Hey 01:48
Hey, Hey, Mamma said wait, wait At the bus stop even if it refuses to rain. And please don't say It'll be okay. Cause we all know, oh we all know better than that. Wait. Wait. Old George said, once he'd be better off dead. So I choked his neck and helped him into the well. And Rodney drank his tea and he tried to sell me So I stole his shoes and ran 'til my soul was sore. Wait. Wait. No more empty Fuel stations that catered the sick and furthered the better of mankind. Now all I see Is nothing but gravel The pope shot me down for the lack of a gown to sleep. Wait. Wait.

Dawn 02:37
Dawn, peek at me no more. My heart is lead, my lungs are sore. Oh, don't you leave me dry again Waste your breath As we commit a sin. Once again. Once again. Hey mister, watch your back, sir for I know what stains your grey shirt. You are so strong, I'm not sure why You are so strong, unallowed to cry. Oh, why? Oh, cry! Seal that mouth shut once more. I ask forever, I've become sore. Let the dirt settle between those teeth. Just keep your mouth shut, between you and me. You and me. You and me.
10.
There's a murderer next door. What a happy day. Throw your books into the pond. I'm not afraid. Not afraid. Uh huh. (several times) Drop your guns and hit the floor, and pray for life. Raise an eyebrow if you may and beat your wife. Uh huh (several more times) I love this place and everything around it. I love the way the people could not give a shit. I love this place. I love this place. Blow out your brains. Blow out your brains.

Plasticity 02:47
Grow me plastic wings. A feather dipped in ink, and life goes by. How long does a lifetime wait and light goes by. Always look ahead and see through perfect days. I will lie awake. All it ever is is for lust's sake. How hard will I have to try to be filled up? All the tears that will be cried into a plastic cup. Take me and take my brain. Cause I'm trapped I'm lost I've gone insane. No one understands x3 The pain in my head A cold empty bed A shoulder to cry into that wasn't even there A pain in my head A cold empty bed A shoulder to cry into that wasn't even there. How long does a lifetime wait And life goes by Always look ahead And see through perfect days The pain in my head A cold empty bed A shoulder to cry into oh it wasn't even there X2

Ouch 03:40
Leave me alone for a while or two. Back is broken, eyes are swollen, just for you. And I miss you too. I miss you too. Tendons ripping, clench my teeth. My head it caved in when it hit the pavement felt the liquid seep. Ankles busted, this point I don't feel much. Except my freckled smile you only view for a while when I take your touch. I miss you too. I miss you too. My ribs have caved in feel my insides crush. I'm seeing you must be leaving my body's hushed. I miss you too. Where are you? I'm afraid I'll never find you.

Sweet Melody 02:38
Not feeling the best today Everything feels wrong. Maybe I should turn around and go the other way. Seems like I've just hit a dead end in my road and seems like it's time to stop I'm running out of hope. Sweet Melody This is a sad song and I'll sing it all to me. Walking down a lonely road no one to take my hand. I'll skip along this gravel path pretend like it's all grand. Sometimes you need to move on. Sometimes you need to stay where you belong. Sweet Melody This is a love song and I'll sing it all to me. Sweet Melody This is a sad song and I'll sing it for you and me. Sweet Melody This is a love song and I'll sing it all for you and me.
