wishing well
03:29
|
|||
I've been everywhere
but it's okay because I'm not scared
and even when I'm there
I'm preoccupied and un-self-aware
but everyone's the same
it's just identical people with identical names
if you would take my hand
maybe then you could understand
another coin in the wishing well
another coin in the wishing well
I'd say I like your hair
not one to overstep
not one to overshare
and I've got no fruits to bear
but I'm almost certain that you wouldn't care
and I've fallen all the same
it's like a daytime drama with myself to blame
if you would take my hand
maybe then you would understand
another coin in the wishing well
another coin in the wishing well
another coin in the wishing well
another coin in the wishing well
. . .
one more coin in the wishing well

pea soup
04:07
|

you know, a thing or two has got me thinkin' again about me and you
the way it goes around, like carnivals; the sights and sounds are so profound
I've never known
the reasons wrote but the words won't
baby, I sink like a stone
and pea soup is on the stove
the keys are gone
my socks are on wrong
hair isn't short but it still ain't long
follow me, have some fun, take your shoes off
can't think of shit to say but I'll just sit in silence with you anyway
can't speak for you but it feels so surreal to hang out when there's no one here
I've never known
the reasons wrote but the words won't
baby, I'm stuck in a dream
of a messy bed and a cat at my feet
the menthol’s done
I left the lights on
washed my shirt three times but the stains aren't gone
strawberry, more for me, sleep the buzz off
baby, I sink like a stone
and pea soup is on the stove
the keys are gone
my socks are on wrong
hair isn't short but it still ain't long
follow me, have some fun, take your shoes off

sketchy drive, uninspected, flyin' down 295
load the gps, I think I got it but I'll be sure god forbid
'cause who's to say I'll be here for the next sunny day
'cause god only knows, maybe we're only made outta one's and o's
can't say for sure what's goin' on (what's goin’ on)
I haven't felt this way in so long (so very long)
but someday soon I'll see you there (I'll be right here)
you know I'd wait for you for years
a little home next to the sea with a thousand holes in the wall
ride aboard this little globe while we still got time on the clock
'cause who's to say I'll be here for the next sunny day
if I had to choose I'd set a million aside and give them to you
can't say for sure what's goin' on (what's goin’ on)
I haven't felt this way in so long (so very long)
but someday soon I'll see you there (I'll be right here)
you know I'd wait for you for years
can't say for sure what's goin' on
I haven't felt this way in so long (so very long)
but someday soon I'll see you there (I'll be right here)
you know I'd wait for you for years

sorcerer's stone
02:02
|

if I had no ball and chain
I'd like the change in scenery
I play the same old games again
maybe just because they're easy
why's that what you dream?
budget friendly Nostradamus
and that's just where I'll be
in the cupboard with my cup just where you found me
god damn morning glow it's got me
scrying like a sorcerer's stone
anywhere you go is that my calling?
darling I know
it's not easy being told
you're free when it's always me
soliciting
at your front door
oh-oh

floating through spots
04:24
|

I'm floating through spots
invisible drugs
and stomach in knots
your afghan rugs
your afghan rugs
your afghan rugs
your afghan rugs
easy day, hard to say I thought it through
come on by. reasons why I know it's true
gravy train, feels the same it ought to do
dandelion tastes bitter like wine and old perfume
I'm onto something new
I'm onto something new
I'm onto something new
I'm onto something new
three centuries
passing by while I'm asleep
one-hundred-and-one seems too long
one-hundred-and-one seems too long
I know you stay here sometimes
I know you live here sometimes
I know you live here sometimes
I know you live here sometimes

make it last

he poured rocks in the dungeon of his mind
made him believe that his water's really wine
and what's that thing he would say all the time?
my mind knows better
tarred and feathered
she locked herself in her room by the stairs
convinced herself that she really didn't care
about the girls with their curly dark hair
but her mind knows better
they just don't get her
her mind knows better
but she don't know what he's been waiting for
he's seen it all before
pretty pictures hanging from his wall
but he don't have the balls
she don't know what he's been waiting for
he's seen it all before
have it seem like he forgot to ask and try to make it last
try to make it last
try to make it last
try to make it

139-AJA
03:02
|

139-AJA's takin' over my mind
her spotlight eyes a-glowin'
hints of blueberry wine
takin' flight
watch my peace tea as it springs into life
now and then, hit my pen
free couch has saved me again
oh no
holy smoke
you're me
when I was seventeen
oh no
red light lord
our weathered walking boards
caked in petroleum dirt
the stores are overflowing
like an expensive dessert
reassert
hollow floors feel like they're falling apart
now and then, hit my pen
free couch has saved me again
oh no
holy smoke
you're me
when I was seventeen
oh no
red light lord

anywhere else, USA
03:24

go fish, go
you're on your own
sixteenth sky
if things were fine I wouldn't say so all the time
I don't have the mind to think of poetry
though it's all I've ever wanted
and don't bother asking me what's on tv
I'd rather be sleeping on the carpet
and if I'm bein' honest it feels like I'm haunted
by a girl from boston
but that's okay
'cause I've got my ticket booked for anywhere else, USA
anywhere else
anywhere else
filled with holes
booze and dope
overnice
it always feels as though I'm skidding on thin ice
I'm sorry I answered with a probably
but never made it like I promised
a re-run of cops was on MTV
and I found cider in the closet
and if I'm bein' honest it feels like I'm haunted
by a girl from boston
but that's okay
'cause I've got my ticket booked for anywhere else, USA
(anywhere, anywhere, anywhere else)
anywhere else, USA
(anywhere, anywhere, anywhere else)
anywhere else, USA
(anywhere, anywhere, anywhere else)
anywhere else, USA
(anywhere, anywhere, anywhere else)

old port blues
02:24
|
|||
when I met you there under your magic spell
when you held me there under that rocky wall
then you set me free back to my cushy cell
feeling trapped in a town where I've seen it all
object permanence ain't what I thought it was
feeling out of place next to my favorite songs
and I'm tired of feeling like I'm fucked up
object permanence ain't what I thought it was

other portland

backwards
pardon all my bad words
I haven't had a backwoods
since at least washburn
thorn rose
take me where the moss grows
if only for a moment
let me feel the west coast
because my
guard's down and I'm high
guard's down and I'm high
I'm pretty sure I can't drive
is it cool if I stay the night?
guard's down and I'm high
way late
longer than a fresh tape
you make it seem worn out
like a broken record
shut down
never mind the fast crowd
I'm livin' in a dream, man
but I'm from the other portland
my guard's down and I'm high
guard's down and I'm high
I'm pretty sure that I'll die
can you say that I'll be alright?
guard's down and I'm high
my guard's down and I'm high
guard's down and I'm high
I'm pretty sure I can't drive
is it cool if I stay the night?
guard's down and I'm high
yea
