YOU GOT THE LIGHT I SEE IN MY HEAD
YOU GOT THE TIME TO PUT ME TO BED

YOU GOT THE MEAT TO KEEP ME POLICED
YOU GOT THE THING I LIVE FOR IN YOU
YOU GOT THE LOT I LOOK FOR A LOT
YOU GOT THE POT LUCK TOOK FROM MY HANDS
YOU GOT THE SEEDS I NEEED OH YOU

she said the canyon between us cant be filled by your penis
im sailing or swimming away
i was just txting
your friends were expecting to keep me around for the day
just ask an addict for beers in the attic
the tables have started to sway
i was just drinking
your eyes were unblinking
i knew that i was in a place
fine sports equipment and highways of strong men
and i find i'm passing the bass
i was just kneeling to give you a feeling
i aint gonna be good today
in my city im sleeping
my smile's such a cheap thing
im running for 5 o clock trains
and you werent winning but still you were grinning
you handed your iPhone away
and ohhh tell me a tale of loss
and images tell me amazing jokes
slide to the basement and tell me what you meant
i'm caught in a slippery phase
but i was just bringing you lunch cuz i'm singing
tonight at the 10 o clock place
keep you the lettuce
the man who once fed us
has left for the coast in a plane
and i was concerned for the bridges he burned
were put out and salvaged the same
and oh tell me i'm lately a ghost
and bickering
tell me whose stealing the show

tire tracks fresh in snow
got a note to leave you
wanna stop
wanna let it go
get off on me
yr flakin out on me
like a lecture i mentioned
real guys real signs
can't get unlaid
lean up on me
go away and fire the place

I Walk Behind The Slow

THE MEEK ARE ON THEIR OWN
I NEED THAT KIND OF BREAK
THE MOST DELIGHTED KNOW WHAT THEy're TOLD FOR THEIR SAKE
I NEED THAT KIND OF HOME
THE GEESE CAN FLAP AND ACHE
I WALK BEHIND THE SLOW AND I KNOW WHAT'S AT STAKE
I BELIEVE IN POWER AND GOLD
I BLEED AND MAKE MISTAKES
AND I SLEEP BESIDE THE ROPES THAT I HOLD WHEN I'M AWAKE

living a lie
if your drummer dies
come late to the streets with me
we'll model our fees
if you need that kinda light
it'll be right
if you need that kinda light
if you do it
livin inside
take to the streets with me
if you need that kinda life
go home
you're living a lie

i said fire away
to my life things are safe
i said fire away
i got miles to play
to my heart to my mind
i said fire away
i said fire away & dream on
i wanted to i wanted to i wanted...
trying out for the race
to my time things are great
i got miles of tape
to my life things are fine
i said fire away & dream on
i wanted to i wanted to i wanted...
