simple shapes

plastic parts


fields keep rolling

lost in my mind

i think about the time that we used to lie here

feels like remnants

of the divine

back from early ’95

and i think my thoughts have had enough

could we skip the dream

and wake me up

and i think i’m tired of plastic parts

could we skip this dream

and wake me up


feels romantic

caught in the light

i think about the time that we used to-


and i need a little one to one

you found me on the run

bathe me in the sunlight

shade me from my own night

and i think my thoughts have had enough

could we skip the dream

and wake me up


and i think i’m tired of plastic parts

could we skip this dream

and wake me up


i could never leave it

it’s a part of my life

even if it drove me to the borderline

how come i always

step out of line

just to see if i could make it back in time

and would you believe it if i told you i’m fine

or is it obvious that i’m lopsided

could i ever show you that side of me?

could i ever show you that side of me?

and i think my thoughts have had enough

could we skip the dream

and wake me up

and i think i’m tired of plastic parts

could we skip this dream

and wake me up

chamomile


a little hard to keep it cool

this time of year

when i’m overly restless

my remedy’s still

sipping chamomile tea slowly

in the back of my room

how can i just find another place like that?

no i’m not insane 

it’s just i can’t turn back

don’t know the way it’s driving me mad 

don’t know the way it’s driving me mad 

how could i just up and get away like that

keeping it together any way we can

don’t know the way it’s driving me mad 

you don’t know the way it’s driving me mad 


back and forth, the up and down

you seem to pull me all around

try to hold it under me

i might need to call it quits  here

could i act regular?

could i start let it out?

i think about the blissful

feeling 

i can have

with this beverage on my lap

how can i just find another place like that?

no i’m not insane 

it’s just i can’t turn back

don’t know the way it’s driving me mad 

don’t know the way it’s driving me mad 

how could i just up and get away like that

keeping it together any way we can

don’t know the way it’s driving me mad 

you don’t know the way it’s driving me mad 

smilin’


yeah we can hang on to the day

taking in the sun rays 

like this


nothing quite like it

point your finger your way

with a grin across your face

nothing quite it 

effervescing off of you

helpless to your touch

it’s a simple, quaint reaction

but i can't get enough

yeah we can hang on to the day

taking in the sun rays 

like this


nothing quite like it

(the way you are)

point your finger your way

with a grin across your face

(smilin’)

nothing quite it 

(smilin’)

is this some kind of heaven?

yeah we can hang on to the day

i can’t make up my mind

i pick it up put it down

find a place downtown

move right in move right out

the bed wasn’t right


1 ’til 3

early morning in a fucked up dream

i cant be there when you call to me

staying up with you

is it the bed i need?

or is it consistency?

either way

it’s clear to me

that i can’t see myself here for the rest of my life

wake up, wake up

wake up I’m trying

i can’t make up

make up my mind

(make up my mind)

saturday night at home…

what is home?

(i don’t know)

breathing slow on the sofa

i make it so hard

i just want to lie here

for the rest of my life

am i a liar

for the rest of my life?


wake up, wake up

wake up I’m trying

i can’t make up

make up my mind

(make up my mind)

tiger balm (magenta)


(magenta, magenta)

you come at night

its so habitual

i’m terrified 

i feel so comfortable

right off your lips

your words are tiger balm

like hot ice


magenta’s the way i want to love

somewhere between the heat and cold 

lay beside me in this fading glow

melting away, in the colors we make

lets talk about the actuals

the truth of it

cause if we add it up

i must admit

i’ve given half as much

with more to give, love

(all night)

magenta’s the way i want to love

somewhere between the heat and cold 

lay beside me in this fading glow

melting away, in the colors we make

(magenta, magenta)


husky brown

maybe you’ve been subdued

what you gonna do with all that?

husky brown like your shoes

hide yourself in the fumes

beauty can bend in both ways

twist it up like the plumes

feeling yourself as somebody new 

don’t second guess yourself

i know its easy to

keep doing what you want

but take it easy soon

you found a recipe

of the strangest kind

but you still had to try it

you still had to try it

maybe you’ve been subdued

what you gonna do with all that?

husky brown like your shoes

hide yourself in the fumes

beauty can bend in both ways

twist it up like the plumes

feeling yourself as somebody new

you make it up make it up

make it up make it as you’re going along

thats wise

whatever it is is enough

whatever it is it’ll fizzle out

maybeyoumaybeyou

maybeyou

maybeyoumaybeyou

maybe you’ve been subdued

what you gonna do with all that?

husky brown like your shoes

hide yourself in the fumes

beauty can bend in both ways

twist it up like the plumes

feeling yourself as somebody new 

miracle

baby

try to be easy

i have never done something like this

before

damn it

i could have never imagined

that i’d ever act this dangerous with you

and i love everything that you are

but this time you’ve taken it too far

this is a half-assed

shitty plan

i just wanna know if you know

that if we make it out of here alive 

its a miracle

you wanna get past everything

try it at the

crack of dawn

and if we make it out of here alive it’s a miracle

(a miracle)

we put ourselves into some shady situations i know

you like adventure that’s alright with me i’m here for it

we make a mess of things then clean it up before we go home

but now look!

you know that i love everything that you are

but this time you’ve taken it too far

this is a half assed

shitty plan

i just wanna know if you know

that if we make it out of here alive 

its a miracle

you wanna get past everything

try it at the

crack of dawn

and if we make it out of here alive it’s a miracle

opinion

leave it to me

leave it to me to let it out this time

let’s have a truce

let it be peaceful for once in our lives

we both need to breathe

been feeling like a task lately

its all that i can ask, really

can you give me just a second?

i’ll say it time and time again, anytime

i’ve had enough the air is dry

i’m getting blurry eyed

and then i gave away the day cause i hesitated

and sure enough i’ve made mistakes

but i’m still okay

those days that you can’t fill a single

page with your thoughts

put your rage in a box and smile

and if you learned one thing from me

i hope it’s that you don’t talk cheap

just give me your honest opinion

lets have a drink

talk about us

settle and sink

drown in the rush

at the edge of my seat!

watching it all unfold

i can’t believe

that you’d have such an easy time 

letting go

i’ll settle any way that you want

any time that you want

but i hope you never do

and if you learned one thing from me

i hope it’s that you don’t talk cheap

just give me your honest opinion

fake milk

friends like you leave the strangest impressions

on me

i look for reflections

are we the same?

you and i

are we insane?

no, were fine..

you said a thing the other night

and i couldn’t get it off my mind

i just want to drink fake milk with my friends

a little oddity

makes a whole lot of sense to me

whole lot of sense to me

look me eye to eye

we’re the black sheep

and always will be

its cool, its fine

we’re a dime a dozen

with the right amount of shy

hope it makes you feel better 

about yourself

yeah you’re kinda weird inside

but so am i

and we really should let it out sometimes

hope it makes you feel better 

about yourself

splash out

i’m the goldfish in your bowl

ill be swimming round and round

(round and round, round and round)

thinking of me when you go

come and feed me when you’re home

i’m the message in a bottle

i’m the treasure at the bottom of the ocean

i’ve been there so very long

lately i’ve been trying to 

splash out

and i don’t know why,

but the air outside seems nice

maybe i could fly

maybe i could fly

and it’s true that i’ve

been here for so long

and i’ve been waiting for you love

but lately i’ve been trying to splash out

would you break my fall?

well now it’s been ages

caught in my own ways 

with some 

feelings i cant tame yet

turns out it’s contagious

when you leave your fragrance

back here in my space

when you go away

live on insomnia

must be on fumes by now

bit of euphoria

a little dysphoria

i live in california

doesn’t sound really bad at all

but if i fall would you break my fall?

i could never satisfy the fire

whatever i do

at the end of all that i could handle

i have found you

well now it’s been ages

caught in my own ways 

with some 

feelings i cant tame yet

turns out it’s contagious

when you leave your fragrance

back here in my space

when you go away

dip

broke my thoughts

in the best way possible

smooth from the start

tearing me apart

at the seams

i created while playing at the park

an imperfect work of art

could you see it from where you are?

do you remember the past

singing with each other on the overpass

and does it make you laugh?

sitting by the river with your shirt and pants

hanging on the tree in the back

take a dip

take a dip with me

floored again

by ur multi colored 

multi layered gaze

my stream of thoughts

rolling endlessly but i cant seem

to make a sound

i’m muted by the lights in my mind

do you remember the past

singing with each other on the overpass

and does it make you laugh?

sitting by the river with your shirt and pants

hanging on the tree in the back

take a dip

take a dip with me

heat.right.now

baby i just want your heat right now

heat right now, heat right now

strangely its instructive

i know exactly 

what you’ve been through

but your face is a moshpit

you lost it the last time we talked like this

give me give me more

give me more time

let me let me know

let me know when you’re alright

i could be there in the blink of an eye

the blink of an eye

maybe i just want your heat right now

like i’m already yours

peel it back

losing control

(baby i just want your heat right now)

staring (an interlude)

staring,

instant importless gratification

a subtlety, with bravery

i’m forging friendships

with reckless abandon

a band of dead ends

so temporarily mentioned

help us

help you!

the elephant in the room

blue blue blue blue blue blue

heritage, suffering, endlessly

breaking breakfast

now, was it everlasting?

no, it everlasted

no one ever lasted.

simple shapes

can i borrow your hand?

tell me when you need it back

and i’ll personally thank you for the chance

i’m modest, honestly

can i make it back?

probably…

i’m just hoping that you ask for that

and if i hold onto this

i know that it’s right for me

that’s alright, don’t you see?

i wanted to find some sleep     

i know that it’s been a while

i’m giving it all of me

but still like half the time

i’m running in circles

creating a space i crave

watch me make my great escape

leaving a trail of simple shapes

will i see you again?

i don’t wanna make pretend

even though i know

you’re with me in my head

and if i hold onto this

i know that it’s right for me

that’s alright dont you see?

(don’tyoudon’tyoudon’tyoudon’tyou)

i wanted to find some sleep     

i know that it’s been a while

i’m giving it all of me

but still like half the time

i’m running in circles

creating a space i crave

watch me make my great escape

leaving a trail of simple shapes

moment

what you doing this moment?

how do you come alive?

in the beginning of the morning

how do you stay suave?

is it the way you think?

is it the way the light

bounces off you

that you like?


i don’t know whats real

but baby i’m on it

on it

do you know the deal

and will you let me in on it?

let me in on it,

baby will you let me in on it?

on it, on it, on it, i’ll get on it

(will you let me in on it?)

what you doing this for?

is it the same every time?

is there a plan involved?

or is it all on the fly?

do you have it all in your head

while i’m sitting on the side

like the quiet  child

run into the night

every time i want to hide

i don’t know whats real

but baby i’m on it

on it


do you know the deal

and will you let me in on it?

let me in on it,

baby will you let me in on it?

on it, on it, on it, i’ll get on it

(will you let me in on it?)
