I’ve had enough of that today and I've seen it coming
I had enough of that today and I hold it
I don't think it's uncommon or hard to
find reasons to talk about
false bottoms
are you coming in?
false ceilings,
modern, or so it seems
good for a nap on a weekday
I can't stay much longer, what are you trying to say?
tips on a diet, certified and safe
but it's dull and it's failing
oh the stakes
he's in a harbour, it's your fault
turning my head ever since
how many people have you seen here today
are they following what I'm trying to say
cause it's common, hard living when you're trying to be just
you want to be the softest form of
the side of you that's keeping the score
are you a? oh what's he trying to save you for?
six feet from the bar
well you're silent, sir, are you a musician?
sing something for us now
go to hell
here they come, late when it's hard to say
I'm here, I'm a wall and you can lay your hot head
think of what you said, when the problem
ain't the stain on the carpet
I'm trying, can you follow my line of thought
I don't perceive your faults
as bad intentions
or out of place
☺
sing something for us now
go to hell

Ice Sandwich

there's a certain slickness and pressure in it
maybe it's nostalgia, rubbed the wrong way
I don't hear the sound it turns acidic
bound by decisions, forget about it
tried to be a service, it was fun
walked by the glitter in the gutter
quite a scene every friday night
how do I get in
don't smother me it's time I said it
buy bells and whistles provided by
no I don't seem to remember right
adding dimensions to sour chat
buy me this house you're full of it
buy me this couch I got to sit here
lost my esteem you're too specific
mine your way out of this in time
looks like you see through it
despite the clear sign on the door

Dead and Fermenting

gather your medals
and change all your strings
start paying attention
this month you got to
make sure you're polished
shiver for nothing
know who you're calling
check all your gestures
board of directors
why are you here for
part of an axis
boring and toxic
cause I'm part of a problem much wider than mine
I've been failing for centuries, but that changed last night
now I'm better than Messi
bad information
fought with the saxons
but violence, it ain't me
part of the problem
slant of offences
don't leave your papers
on top of the desk
I got some advances
pay up the gym
run you got to board up the train
perfect your sentence
one or two takes
I don't need glasses
I just learned all the shapes
cause I'm part of the action
I'm part of the troops cause
one man's apple
is another man's stake
yeah I'm fine
what I've been missing
I might need a tour
dead and fermenting
****
well I fixed all your troubles
and read all your mail
honours and mentions
clapping their tails
lotions and spices
oddest replacements
when helping others
look for connections
hades please aid me
got lost in the ratings
lift it off the page
and missed the new morning trend
cause I'm part of the tackles
part of a great team
part of the makings
part of the race
cause I've looked at my numbers
and numbers don't lie
run you got to board up the train
perfect your sentence
one or two takes
I don't need glasses
I just learned all the shapes
cause I'm part of the action
part of the troops cause
one man's apple
is another man's stake
yeah I'm fine
what I've been missing
I might need a tour
dead and fermenting

Aching for a Rebel
01:50

aching for a rebel
I'm on top of the stairs
surprising but inevitable
I've read my duelling rights
I recall the combination
it's not far and not a good run
smoking feels oppressive
but it's widely comprehended
I'm dying while I wait for us
now it's feeling much closer
and crying takes closure
a nice suit in the dirt
like father and son
aching for a rebel
I will lie on these steps
surprising but inaccurate
I've read my duelling rights
I recall the combination
it's not far and not a good run
provoke me to surrender
it's still widely comprehended
I'm dying while I wait for us
now it's feeling much closer
and crying takes closure
a nice suit in the dirt
like father and son

I Called You Already

well this is a weird one but don't forget to show it
played much lighter rooms and coughed by the fourth
the following contest involves the deceiving
I inform that it's coming to you under your plate
I've seen your cause but it's not been blessed in these
south valleys where the gentle wind breathes
frightened and sleepless why did I read it
minor details on a present day novel
all of these stains get along in this story
slippery ice that I fixed once or twice
when you're growing up tall
and you're shelter escapes
by some miraculous inspiration no one quite understands
eliminate between hundreds of hours
and keep it inside, within eight lines to start
I walked through the mist and it's coming up again
in the ballroom will it haze when it comes
walking and talking we gaze at the clouds
breathing in stepping on slippery ice
be regretted as a numeral
cemented times
bells fall apart
farewell my friends early in the summer
the kind things that were said
touching and moving
hold ourselves in the calm
when it comes tonight

Unexpected Advantage
03:23
|

you drive like you always wanted
you're a very nice person
you should be somewhere with people
not here not now
see that coffee shop over there by the corner?
I swear, you don't cry, you don't know what crying more often is
but you do understand that the living creature will not standby
to the scrutinising of every detail, every insurgence
unexpected advantage
glad I stayed in the waiting room
he gave up is life to fight for Greece
"exceptional beauty"
is that actually true?
l have all interest in pretending to admire
except for Wagner he detested Wagner
I was holding it in, to scare the students
you do understand that the living creature will not standby
to the scrutinising of every detail, every insurgence
sitting several seats down
having a hell of a while
big figure, I didn't notice
bought probably in gallery hall
all the charm, and raising thumbs
in case it's the last deep locked room
after all, too much too present,
too much too heavy, to go
you drive like you always wanted
you're a very kind person
you need some time by yourself
but not here not now
except the following he detested following
I was holding it in, to scare the students
you do understand that the living creature will not standby
to the scrutinising of every detail, every insurgence
sitting several seats down
having a hell of a while
big figure, I didn't notice
bought probably in gallery hall
all the charm, and raising thumbs
in case it's the last deep locked room
after all, too much too present,
too much too heavy, to go
unexpected advantage
glad I stayed in the waiting room
unexpected advantage

Clean Summer Clothes
02:58
|

you mixed it with the wrong measure
just pay attention, that's all
paiting in the dark
it's a serious inconvenience
this is part your unconscious perplexion
you insist on raising the stakes
the days we got to break to lose to waste
are sunny and uneventful
hey, how lucky
this new place has a really good breakfast deal
I can't breathe without watching you every morning
combing your hair
careful you gonna break it
laid back
and with the villains on sabbatical
it takes me about 15 minutes to get there with low to zero traffic
I've tried to optimise it it, but I'm not quite sure
I finally stopped to see
the river and the forests
and I'm gonna sport
my clean summer clothes
nice ride
it's innovative
it's gonna step up this whole operation
I'm translating all the food they want
I suggested none they wanted two instead
bye now, I'm next to lifeless
I only did what my arms could do
it's not terrible its just not good
I'd love to take you, I love to drive
you see me on rare occasions
still caught me in a bad day
despite the sand despite the weather
and all of that crap
just get out of here as fast as you can
our ways are so eclectic
what reenactment of human creativity is now being force fed to your pocket
well last time we made a mistake
but don't regard it as a superstition
eventually the catching up
well if you're not patient
happens, soon enough
good sense of limitation
facts you can disagree
and I'm gonna sport
my clean summer clothes

Absolute Best
01:54
|

show me address of the quote "lessons"
and I'll arrange for the next train
dinner is done don't bother
I found the perfect client
I've seen you running by the hill side
you always wanted a flawless frame
how can the touch of your face
be perfect
sounded like a great trip with mystifying tales and lots of old fashioned
canal walks with magic tones under the spell of cheap literature
I'm casual but don't deceive me
I can get fussy with disguises
It's sadly not a great metaphor
but we'll keep trying
you've seen me on the press and beat the hell out of a bag of sand
I'm here I feel terrific and I'm ecstatic to see you
what I want to say is, we work for you
you'll be pushed to your limit
your definite absolute best
something between a tiger and a bulldozer
everything else it don't matter
I have a degree up on the wall
you can do so much more
we're all you need
I've been through these knots in my hand
and I've sweat in ways you can't see
I want some ease and affection
as always I'm ecstatic to see you

This is Academy
02:29

so you wouldn't take a chance to forget that?
you don't have to formalize it
who are you, she asked?
anyway, here's the sentence, meaning one
it doesn't exist physically
shallow slices
when cutting up the brain in
advocating the small town, part of it's word
I've seen your wishes
you drop them in the wrong king of lake
I never quite understood I was breaking
this ain't the place I knew, this is academy
I've gotten away too, with collages
you can't imagine the glove compartment of the people that came up with this program
I have seen it as it tears through a gap
I have weighted all the repertoire
I have this motion fixed into me
my dearest hopes I can finish my chores
and apply
here to try here to apply
we're on the same side

Critical Mass
05:22
|

the man who stands before the crowd vows to take their ills
the sound of it, the weight of it
it's a warm night
the pawn is out in a cloister under your guard
I can walk away right now for a percentage
your house is safe
from the lighting on the hills
and on the coast
I confided and waited for holes in your statement
perplexing
it's perplexing
what part of your real self you keep under your bed
how bland
do you have to eulogise, can you keep your composure
your palm is in your forehead
how stern
has the sum of your resentment got on your skin
start confessing

Waterproof
01:45

how do you plan to get out
if you stay right here
fall for your education
I've shot the crows in the garden
I've pulled the weeds from your armor
goodbye to green fields where the wind blows all the grass in
I've never seen you do your taxes here
I guess it's all an adjustment
I am carved in stone,
from my roll I've
seen you sing and turn off speakers
but there are songs that deserve no listeners
and now I guess I wrote a song about it
but I'm not sure I was the one who started it
long, short, curly and a mess
I've fixed my head it's working like it should
pissed by the faces, looks like I've been to hell
on a proper substantial scholarship
and the kids
do what they know
you're always slipping here
near the desk
