You gotta work

Burning birds
streak the sky red and back charred oh my
but never we mind them
sweeping lines of beauty under the rug
it's not time for them now
The situation on the ground is hens and chics and peas
in a pod but theres a general unease
holding fast standing small opening up
taking it all in
I'll work I'll work I'll work it all away
say I'm to busy again today
kick my foot in the sand these events that shape
my fate I'm lost without them
hurling verbs
strike the chords green and blue see the words
but never define them '
color blind doesn't matter now when everything is black and white
I seek a grey asylum
The situation on the ground is pens and sticks and cheese
in a pot but theres a general unease
I'll work I'll work I'll work it all away
say I'm to busy again today
kick my foot in the sand these events that shape
my fate I'm lost without them
They seem to hurt distract
but they are really on measure
they seem to break extract
but they'r really quite clever
I'll work I'll work I'll work it all away
say I'm to busy again today
kick my foot in the sand these events that shape
my fate I'm lost without them

Kind

I'd like to sit by your dress
run my fingers over the hem
I know you'd understand
you were always so kind
to the little ones
to the ones that were left behind
oh the little ones
you were always so kind
tears are salty I can Taste mine
my vision is blurry thats fine
cause it's my lot in life
Years are crying for a life thats dying to be more than
the sum of it's strife
I'd like to be close in some way
hold your hand at the end of the day
I know you'd understand you were always
so kind to the little ones
to the ones that were left behind
tears are salty I can Taste mine
my vision is blurry thats fine
cause it's my lot in life
Years are crying for a life thats dying to be more than
the sum of it's strife
you are darling lovely with stained glass breaking
in front of your eyes you're shaking but so strong
for the little ones
for the ones that were left behind
oh the little ones
you were always so kind

Trust

I'm not myself and I may never be again
can't stand the way I'm slowly being spent so I sit
and how far have wretched this time
can't stand being in or outside
won't use slides to explain my situation need compensation
when looking for attention can you find someone to love
not a perfect human being just with kindness and two gloves
cause that would be cool and when they come off
we could go wherever we go wherever we want
when the gloves come off
we could go wherever we go wherever we want
if you show me TRUST
I'm not myself and I will never be again
that persons gone but I'll say in their defense
how far have I crossed this time
can't go back roll away my pride
I won't pretend to know
and follow your lead if nothing holds
when looking for attention can you find someone to love
not a perfect human being just with kindness and two gloves
cause that would be cool and when they come off
we could go wherever we go wherever we want
when the gloves come off
we could go wherever we go wherever we want
if you show me TRUST
I'm not myself and I will never be again

Something good

A serious lime scented break a mold
take me to your leader board
show me what your on
show me what I need to do but don't really bother
I'll just follow my own through and wonder who to trust
and what do I do with lust money and corruption is it funny to think they are the very same thing
pour over me the realness of your take
I can sense the sincerity to you leave in your wake
and would you live to make me feel like a million dollars
because if I could I would for you anytime
And I know I don't have any special powers
but I think I've learned enough to stop on a dime
so let me down down see me off off with a smile
where you begin and we will end
and Its sad for me but I don't feel like crying
and it's better for us but I won't celebrate
and it's a loss of time and life but I'm content
existing until something good comes calling again
until something good comes calling again
and Its sad for me but I don't feel like crying
and it's better for us but I won't celebrate
and it's a loss of time and life but I'm content
existing until something good comes calling again
until something good comes calling again

Destitute

So I'm coming out of this bar
and I've drank way to much so I ordered a cab
While I"m waiting there these girls pass by
and I say , " hey! what do I look like to you?"
" Do I like like a destitute? Like a hallowed out loser?"
and they said, " No you look like someone waiting for a cab" and I said " I'm someone waiting for cab" and it was really sweet
then I saw myself in their eyes as someone who wasn't so bad
and for a second I was like, you know what? maybe I'm not so bad.
And then I ran to the corner and then I ran back because I remembered the cab
that was a nice night
that was a wake up call
that was a nice night
there were good people and all
and all and I said
" hey! what do I look like to you?"
" Do I like like a destitute? Like a hallowed out loser?"
and they said, " No you look like someone waiting for a cab" and I said " I'm someone waiting for cab" and it was really sweet
Then the cab pulled up
and I got in and I went home
