(oooo oooo oooo)
Drive out with the sun in your eyes
You wasted my time
It's true, it's true
My god, don't you hold out your hand
I called off my plans
I counted on you, on you
And if you're ever left with any doubt
What you live with and what you'll do without
I'm only sorry that it took so long to figure out
(oooo oooo oooo)
Got lost in the places I've been
I should go out with my friends
I'd go tonight but I know you'll be there too, there too
For me, this bottle of wine
Is to slow down my mind
And forget the things that I knew, I knew
And if you're ever left with any doubt
What you live with and what you'll do without
I'm only sorry that it took so long to figure out

The bidding of time, getting stuck in my mind,
There's a boat to row.
Two hours later, back in my neighbourhood,
Where everythings just dull.
Still looks the same, they remember my name,
Stepping in for a cup full.
There's big city man, I use to rumble with him,
Back in high school.
The slow cruel hands of time,
Turn you in to molten lava or mud.
The place on the ride, you can stop for awhile,
Look out for the policeman.
There's no street lamps, only three buildings,
And one of them's vacant.
It's taken all day, the packs feeling heavy,
And soon enough.
Backwards down the mountain, the axel is grinding,
Pull in to the wrong drive.
The sky is in the yard,
Street cotton candy in the fall.
Slow kind they're hard to fall,
Long times, I don't want it at all.
I've done this so long, it's something I ought to know.
So long.
Finally up, all the pieces disrupted, and the birds fly.
Trapped for a moment, the Sheriff's department, got the wrong guy.
The towns reveal below.
Visible wind, through the fog.
Slow cruel hands of time,
Turning you back into a child.

Oooh oooh ooohhh ooohhh
Oooh oooh ooohhh ooohhh
Every time you try to pick up just the pieces,
Feelin' bad for yourself.
Watchin' all the foreign cars for fags and breezes
From a window instead
From a window instead
Find it hard to see the good or face the music
Looking backwards again
Oversentimental staring half-way horizontal
Well I think you're a new man
Well I think you're a new man
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat
Morning calls it's early birds, my babes and beagle,
Still resting their heads
They're waking up to noisy doors or stomping feet,
Of a restless old man
Of a restless old man
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
Oooh oooh ooohhh ooohhh
Oooh oooh ooohhh
Oooh oooh ooohhh ooohhh
Oooh oooh ooohhh
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said

Climb the cliff, Tower over all
And falling water, falling waterfall
And after all my plans
They melt into the sand
Yeah you will be there on my mind through all
Don't want to understand why you never get older
It's time to dry off tattered overalls
Impatient waiting, Way to hide a fall
And after all my plans
They melt into the sand
Yeah you will be there on my mind through all
Don't want to understand why you never get older
And after all my plans
They melt into the sand
Yeah you will be there on my mind through all
Don't want to understand why you never get older
After all my plans
They melt into the sand
Yeah you will be there on my mind through all
Don't want to understand why you never get older
And after all my plans
They melt into the sand
Yeah you will be there on my mind through all

If the trials up here
Are really getting you down
You had a close call
I didn't even see it in another one
I hardly believed it all
What the writers say
It means shit to me now
Plants and animals
Appear on the bend when its 80 degrees
The end of December whats going on
Now before
You and me
In the showing up here
Its going back to the south
Were hungry next that I know
And running a blender in a lightning storm
The disguise is a blessing i'm sure
And growing up here
There comes a fork in the road
Pants have got to go
We're on an island on the 4th of July
It looks like the tide is going home
In the time i find
A little way to your heart
Now to the general store
For nothing specific
Gonna wash my bones in the Atlantic shore

I could sleep
I could sleep
I could sleep
I could sleep
When I lived alone
Is there a ghost in my house?
I could sleep
I could sleep
I could sleep
I could sleep
When I lived alone
Is there a ghost in my house?
When I lived alone
Is there a ghost in my house?
My house...
I could sleep
I could sleep
I could sleep
I could sleep
When I lived alone
Is there a ghost in my house?
When I lived alone
Is there a ghost in my house?
My house...
I could sleep
I could sleep
I could sleep
I could sleep
When I lived alone
Is there a ghost in my house?
When I lived alone
Is there a ghost in my house?

I got you arrested because
Are you come or gone
I am about to set this off
The party is done
The wine is there to keep yourself
You got it wrong
So I brought you plenty thoughts
Words were at a loss
It's a good day to skip because
The party is gonna call
The wine there t keep yourself
But don't you ever listen at all
The parents are enforcing the law
The wine is there to keep yourself
But don't you ever listen at all

I'm coming up only
To hold you under
and coming up only
To show you wrong
And to know you
Is hard we wonder
To know you all wrong
We were
Ooooohh oooohh
Ooooohhhoohhhhooh
Really to late to
Call so we waited for
Morning to wake you
It's all we got
To know me as hardly golden
Is to know me all wrong
They were
And every occasion
I'll be ready for the funeral
Every occasion once more
It's called the funeral
Every occasion
Oh, I'm ready for the funeral
And every occasion
Of one billion day funeral
I'm coming up only
To show you doubtful
I'm coming up only
To show you wrong
To the outside
The dead leaves they all belong
Before they died
and had trees to hang their poem
Oooohhhohhhhhh
Oooooohooooooh
And every occasion
I'll be ready for the funeral
And every occasion once more
It's called the funeral
And every occasion
Oh, I'm ready for the funeral
Every occasion

I'm shaking awful...
I'm shaking, asshole
And where's the remote?
Its gonna fall off.
The snowing in cover,
Do you recover from those?
And christmas time coming
And over approaching
We've been drinking, pardon.
As christmas time goes
I'm coming over
Coming from
Youre already gone
I'm wrapping up
The presents
I bought
(pretty guitar)
An overcoat
Will take me anywhere
We've suffered enough.
Its scary
To me,
And their leaving from earth.
Cutting us off
Knowing that
Calling on
Total
Way.
Do i know anyone
I dont know

Silver scents of saint augustine
Fire in the ground
Between my better teeth
We're dancing on the poison in their graves
At the end of the night
We'd all seen better days
I know you tried
I know you're cursed
I know your best was still your worst
When hollywood was calling out your name
If i stayed behind
Would you let your hair grow?
I will forget
The favors that you owe
I'm dreaming of car wrecks and thunderstorms bright
Let's bury ourselves
And go haunt someone tonight
I know you tried
I know you're cursed
I know your best was still your worst
When hollywood was calling out your name

Well i'd like to think i'm the mess you'd wear with pride.
Like some empty dress on the bed you've layed out for tonight.
Maybe i'll tell you sometime.
Time
Sometime
You were right
Right
You were right
Outside
By your doorstep
In a worn out
Suit and tie
I'll wait
For you to come down
Where you'll find me
Where we'll shine
Outside
By your doorstep
In a worn out
Suit and tie
I'll wait
For you to come down
Where you'll find me
Where we'll shine
Outside
By your doorstep
In a worn out
Suit and tie
I'll wait
For you to come down
Where you'll find me
Where we'll shine

Back of the boat was painted wreckin' ball
There was country music playing, but he don’t like it at all
And red fire poppin' on the rained-down woody
His whiskey bottle spillin' in a lake that's made of salt
And look out Michael, there's a note on the door
Saying, "Everybody listen, you'll be the next Omaha"
Now, if you find yourself falling apart
Then I'm sure... I could stay... On... the Great Salt Lake
And your old man was but a wishing machine
It’s time that you could spare; now he's getting old
When Billy Lorett had found a watering hole
It’s a place to lay yourself or the heads of coyote
Now, if you find yourself falling apart
Then I'm sure... I could stay... On... the Great Salt Lake
We're following home
We want more
Following home
We all want more
If ever beat down, we know who we are
They know we all want more
If ever beat down, we know who we are

The end's not near
It's here
Hallelujah
Spread the cheer
And watch the millenarians
Throw a party for a thousand years
You won't see the pious praying
They'll be too busy flaying
All the martyrs with better ways
To stop the world decaying
If you call me I won't be home
I'm hiding from the kingdom come
They can't see everything on earth
With the satellites and the roving drones
This is why hell is underground
Like a reclaimed bad part of town
We don't want to lose our souls

If I want to walk home with you
Hearing every word, thinking it's true
In a barren field for us to cut through
On our victory lap 'cross an old street cat
That turns to stop and see you
A small stone somewhere in your shoe
All day long
All day long
Long
The old folks wake up for the day
Seeing the monsters have lingered from the past
And a great bird is flying away
From our family tree; something wrong with me
I've got a secret or two
Hiding somewhere but
It won't take long
No it won't take long

Hate Gil really now
Hate you because
Go tip your toe (?)
Shut off to the world
Shut off to all, you ghost
Early told a lie
Afraid to be blind
Now go for a while
Shut off the world
Shut off to all
I'm yours
I'm yours
Helping evil people to say things they show
Said once before
I know evil people who say things
They don't know, oh
Begged Gil really why
Stay through the night
I'm here for a while
Shut off to the world
Shut off to all
I'm yours
I'm yours
Helping evil people to say things they show
Said once before
I know evil people who say things
They don't know,
Oh why do I even care

To the bottom dear i have to fall
but you really caught me
you really caught me, dear
at the bottom where I'd fallen.
and slowly dear ask that you dance with me
here with the shades down
lights off
when i didn't know you
and everything i do
done badly
now I'll love you always
even when i say
you distract me.
and sit out tonight in some strange place
if we have no friends here
well i had a few to begin with
to wake next to you in the morning
and good morning to you.
how do you do?
hey, good morning to you!
more covers for you.
sleep soundly dear cause i have to go.
and I'll love you always.
when we leave this place
and drive back to Carolina
and down to Savannah and

Out on the wall sounds of banging is constant coming from your head
And desperate the calls came and ringing from those wanna wring your neck
Wring your neck
Open your mouth sounds of breathing found it spilling from your face
Best to be dim to the humble of traffic stepping on your name
Count on us all falling our own swords tonight
And chilling walk home down the portions roads there leading straight to your place
And look like the tin can with swallows the kitchen plugging up your space
Count on us all stepping on our own toes tonight
Count on us all stepping on our own toes

On my way back home
A chance I thought of,
Oh my favorite song
Where I'd gone wrong.
The only words that I could think of
I'm pissing my life away in the form of song
On my way back home.
Every step,
a victory it was.
I was cheating death.
Just in time I woke.
My memories start to wander off
Come to me the remembrance of
My way back home.
I came in this way.
And here now I'll stay, if the unknown
have to wait one more day
There's often times that it comes out wrong
But luckily I, I got a mind to know.

In the lobby of the LRC
Well I knew I'd find something
A hundred stroies sittin there to read
I got my focals out I put 'em on
And all is calm, all is calm
Theres a doggie coming here to eat now
Which dated back to 1993
I don't care what the people say 'cause
That dog he don't come around here anymore
No, no the dog is gone, the dog is gone
No, no the dog is gone, the dog is gone
The town is so small
How could anybody not
Look you in the eyes
The way that you drive by
The world is such a wonderful place
The world is such a wonderful...
I see everyone before me, there was birthday sex and sleep
Some weren't getting along
Nobody's outside trying to murder
Nobody's outside, there's no one really at all
What the hell i saw, the hell i saw
The hell i saw, the hell i saw
The town is so small
How could anybody not
Look me in the eyes
The way that I drive by
The world is such a wonderful place
The world is such a wonderful place
The world is such a wonderful place
The world is such a wonderful place

Northwest apartment, apartment
I'm driving over in Oakridge baby with the whole neighborhood in tow
Somebody trapped in the underground basement just a few blocks down the road
Northwest apartment, apartment
With three guitars and one amplifier I'm gonna blow the dust off this scene
Everybody in population are gonna find out what I mean
Northwest apartment, apartment
When all the parts equal more than the sum
And the sum equals none
This thing was built in a day knowing that the Romans took longer than that
We brought a bass player a cold old soul and he's a first class welcome mat
Well cleaned apartment! Apartment
In the morning I walk up I'm ready for the night time to begin
And what's that over there on my pillow someone sleeping in my bed
Northwest apartment, apartment
When all the parts equal more than the sum
And the sum equals none

The wind blew a path through the fallen leaves
And there showed a crack in the old oak tree
The door stood as if it was standing guard
Of the dozen chipmunks in the backyard
Every house not a home but dare do I roam
There's a light on the porch here for someone
Once upon a time in a border town
The war was over, the guns laid down
The women, the men, the children saved
Now it's hard to remember it any other way
When the law acts as though there is nothing to show
There is compassion and depth in a neighbor
Now if Bartles & Jaymes didn't need no first names
We could live by our own laws in favor
Every house not a home but dare do I roam
There's a light on the porch here for someone
Now if Bartles & Jaymes didn't need no first names

La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
Life on Earth is changing
Life on Earth is ending
And time on Earth is ending
And time on Earth is changing
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
Life on Earth is ending
Life on Earth is changing
And time on Earth is changing
And time on Earth is ending
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la

Gonna take a trip to Laredo
Gonna take a dip in the lake
Oh, I'm at a crossroads with myself
I don't got no one else
Impossibilities at the door
I won't be needing them anymore
Oh, is this the first time in your life?
It's hard just to get by
But oh, my love, don't you even know?
And oh, my love, are you really gone?
Ooooh
And can you see the world through a window?
Are you having troubles in droves?
Oh, it ain't the worst thing I could do
Is get back home to you
I put a bullet in my Kia Lorenzo
A kitchen knife up to my face
Throw me in the deep of Jenner Lake
Believe me when I say
That oh, my love, you don't even call
And oh, my love, is that you on the phone?
Ooooh
And oh, my love, you don't even know
That oh, my love, are you really gone?

Here's a copy
of a lesson you know,
and put the kind words to bed.
For man don't say why,
or even know how,
it's only awful as
the hell that you know.
When islands want to coast,
islands want to coast,
they'll know how,
yeah, they'll know how.
And only hours before
the house had burned down,
he shut the other door.
But if i don't see now,
or even know why,
it's only awful
as the hell that you know.
When islands want to coast,
islands want to coast,
they'll know how,
yeah, they'll know how.
Home, home, home. (x4)
He was writing in
the lesson you know,
let's take the other door.
Now if i don't think right,
or even know how,
it's only awful
as the hell that you know.
When islands want to coast,
islands want to coast,
they'll know how,
yeah, they'll know how.

I had a dream
I had a dream
That I was your neighbor
About to give birth
And then everything
Was really hurt
And I was so lonely
I didn't see It's like
Living in a movie
Twisting the plot
My friends and family
The little things I've got, I've got
When my thoughts drift to you
I love the morning
I like to listen
To 4am birdies
Begging to feed
Now there's something here before me
A figure, I think
Isn't there a warning
Or something to drink
My god, my god
When my thoughts drift to you
These mended bones
The storms approach
Ever so slowly
Out on the sea
There's an animal below me
Lack of control
Others came before me
Others to come, to come

Just the mentioning of (Just the mention of)
such a simple phrase.
Are we passengers on (separated trains)
separated trains?
Take the mask off (Take the mask of)
when you speak to me.
And I'm alright to go on (It's the little things)
it's the little things.
But anymore, you've become.
A ? to everyone.
To everyone.
I'm reeling in the wrong day getting behind ?
Why didn't i think "what in the world?"
It really took a tall one to see it
Two to believe it
Three to just get in the way
All your life to think of (All your life think of),
what a mess you made.
Dig a hole in the ground (for your wedding ring)
for your wedding ring.
Rainmaker call (the Rainmaker call)
throw your hammer down.
And everything that I know (Can't remember now)
can't remember now.
Anymore, you've become.
Inherent of another one.
Another one.
I reeling in the wrong days, getting behind
Why didn't I think "what in the world?"
It really took a tall one to see it
Two to believe it.

I'm fixing a drink in the morning
With a wavy tongue
You may have stayed too long
You're splitting apart at the seams
From the hospital call
You've known him so long
If there's a God up in the air
Someone looking over everyone
At least you got something to fall back on
Deep in the heart of the country
Was a house I built from logs
A raven and a lady hawk
Quiet and calm through the day
See the sun burn through the fog
Approaching was a yellow dog
If there's a God up in the air
Someone looking over everyone
At least you got something to fall back on
And what are people really for?
Does any body even care?
I'll bet you get a lot of compliments down there
If there's a God up in the air
Someone looking over everyone
At least you got something to fall back on
And do you got something to say?
Isn't something coming over you?

The working man's day we just piss it away
We sit out in the weather
Familiar, he said, times two breeds contempt
Wash your hands of it forever
Violence it ripped through the old dogwood fence
See the whole scene unravel
Drunk brother said he could reason with them
While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied...
While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied...
The picture was left on the front porch, the back said
"I love you, don't you ever think of me?"
If my body goes, then to hell with my soul
We don't even know the difference
The dead folks in the clouds, for crying out loud
While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied...
While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied...
And why, did we live so long
Long
Long
(bridge)
The house is not the same since we left it that day
Old friends seem to wander
Our parents had cigarettes, wedding bands
While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied...
While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied...
And why, did we live so long...
Long...
Long...
(bridge)
While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied...
While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied...
While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied...

I used to see the night so anxious, but now I know
The only thing it ever taught me was a grand illusion
That comes and goes, the city blanketed of snow.
What if we die, no end and no conclusion.
How could you smile, just walk away.
Well I don't know.
I don't know.
I met you at the railroad station, now years ago.
And something happened on the night I last drank with you in the neon glow.
Now I don't see you anymore.
The Midwestern sky, is gray and cold.
The sun never shines, but that's alright.
And I couldn't find the letters that you wrote me.
What did you write? Where'd you go, well I don't know. No.
Take a little time gonna roll the dice
Taken for a ride, any normal life will do, too.
Find another way, try to break the ice

Well I got to tell you things
The day I was born
And every ounce chowed off was before
Your son came to kill me there
No peace inside, he's playing
He's slowly stealing all of my dreams away
Ain't it wonderful
Wonderful to watch
Loneliness is grilled with meet
Illness I imbibed
With shaking hands, watchful eyes
Ain't they wonderful
Ain't they wonderful to watch
Carolina, home
Savanna, home
They need to know
Where'd you go
They lean on, they lean on
They lean on, they lean on
Everything that I care for
Is so wonderful
Legs wrapped around me there
Fuckin' through the storm
The truth be known, never saw before
She sat so weepy there
So listen now, I've learned
Some bridges better not burn
We'll leave in disaster now
They lean on, they lean on
They lean on, they lean on
Everything I'm reaching for

Erase the facts
The shit was flyin' outta the window
I painted blue
I paint the whole room
When its time to get in trouble
We know just what to do
The screen door swayin'
Now baby gimme something to live for
I been a fool
I been a fool
No revelations in the water
No tears into the booze
In pains the floor
The worried people shaking the whole house
I i take it back
I take it all back
The regret thats got us sayin'
The hounds upon the tracks
And always in time
I'm never looking over my shoulder
I sing to you
I sing it to you
Keeping heads above the water and

If your trials end, are really getting you down
We had a close call, I didn't even see it, then another one, I hardly believed it at all.
What the writers say, it means shit to me now.
Plants and animals, we're on a bender when it's 80 degrees, the end of December was coming on,
Only for you and me.
When the showing up ends, going back to the south, where hungry necks that I know, and runnin'
A blender in a lightning storm, disguised as a blessing I'm sure.
Knowing up here, there comes a fork in the road, pants have gotta go, we're on an island on
The fourth of July, looks like the tide is going home.
In time I'd find a little way to your heart, down to the general store for nothing specific,

And take a little walk when the worst is to come
When I saw you looking like I never thought
And say you're at a loss or forgot that words can do more than harm
The town is gonna talk, but these people do not
See things through to the very minimal
But what's it gonna cost to be gone?
If we see you like I hoped we never would
When eyes can't look at you any other way,
Any other way, any other way
When eyes can't look at you any other way,
Any other way, any other way
So take it as a song or a lesson to learn
And sometime soon be better than you were
If you say you're gonna go, then be careful
And watch how you treat every living soul
My eyes can't look at you any other way,
Any other way, any other way
When eyes can't look at you any other way,

Welcome to another world
Look at the water, look at whatever
We broke the last one apart
And put it back together, it didn't matter
It's a little biblical
A little bit tragic, it may be fantastic
Every once in a while
Every little thing, Every little thing
But I'm old enough to know I'm holding on
For something
I'm old enough to see I'm not the only one
When you get back to town
Back from the islands, back to where I live
Well, we need to have a word
A topic to touch on, the topic is touchy
Yeah this is pitiful
The lack of reception, you never listen
I don't need another round
Nothing is perfect but this isn't worth it
And I'm old enough to know that I'm holding on
For something
I'm old enough to see I'm not the only one
Yeah I smashed it apart and the rains wouldn't stop
'Til everybody was gone, moving on to the next one
I'm old enough to know, I'm holding on
For something

It's looking like a limb torn off
Or altogether just taken apart
We're reeling through an endless fall
We are the ever-living ghost of what once was
But no one is ever gonna love you more than I do
No one's gonna love you more than I do
And anything to make you smile
It is my better side of you to admire
But they should never take so long
Just to be over then back to another one
But no one is ever gonna love you more than I do
No one's gonna love you more than I do
But someone,
They could have warned you
When things start splitting at the seams and now
The whole thing's tumbling down
Things start splitting at the seams and now
If things start splitting at the seams and now,
It's tumbling down
Hard.
Anything to make you smile
You are the ever-living ghost of what once was
I never want to hear you say
That you'd be better off
Or you liked it that way
But no one is ever gonna love you more than I do
No one's gonna love you more than I do
But someone
They should have warned you
When things start splitting at the seams and now
The whole thing's tumbling down
Things start splitting at the seams and now
If things start splitting at the seams and now,
It's tumbling down

A tree for all these problems
They can find you for the moment
Then for all past efforts
There buried deep beneath
Your heart and somewhere in your stomach
And hey, transform all others
When aweful people they surround you
Well hey, they just like monsters
They come to feed on me
Giant little animals to feed
Though to say we got much hope
If i am lost it's only for a little while
A tree for all these problems
They can find us for the moment
Then for all past efforts
There buried deep beneath
Our hearts and somewhere in our stomachs
And hey, transform all others
When aweful people they surround you
Well hey, they just like monsters
They come to feed on us
Giant little animals for us
Though to say we got much hope
If i am lost it's only for a little while
Though to say we got much hope
If i am lost it's only for a little while
If i am lost it's only for a little while

I'll marry my lover in a place to admire
I don't have to even ask her, I can look in her eyes
And thank God that I am forgiven
I thank all my friends
To say I've been truer or they forgotten
Weary my mind is, to say the least
It's been awful hard to just stand on my feet
I think I'll slow down if I am able
I won't drown in the ocean
Or starve in my place at the table
Lucky ones are we all til it is over
Everyone near and far
When you smile the sun it peaks through the clouds
Never die, for always be around and around and around
How is your sister and what of your brother
Extend hellos to your father and mother
What in the world would cause you any sorrow
Lighten your load
And see how I killed the wheelbarrow I borrowed
Lucky ones are we all til it is over
Everyone near and far
When you smile the sun it peaks through the clouds

Better things come to those who wait
Then appearness left for all too late
Greatness achieved, and darkness defeated
Ram shack crew with something to prove
And the truck blew up believe it
You see me go, there's something coming your way
Everything I want, and everything I need
So say it to me, say it to my face
There's no time to be reserved or safe
Call just chill, whenever
Glory till the end
Everything I want, and everything I'll get
It's coming now, It's going down
The stars are falling, walls are coming all of hour
Knocking on the doorway, look who's coming your way
Everything I want, everything I need
Knocking on the door
Knocking on the door
Knocking on the door
Knocking on the door
Uh-u-u-u-uh
Uh-u-u-u-uh
No one's gonna know it
The right ones are green
Vroving wrong the other one's winning
We're fine, when I'll win
Look what's in the door
There's something coming your way
Everything I want, everything I need
Knocking on the doorway,
Hey look what's coming your way
It's Everything I want, It's everything I need
Knocking on the door
Knocking on the door
Knocking on the door
Knocking on the door
Knocking on the door
Knocking on the door
Knocking on the door
Knocking on the door
Knocking on the door

The elevator in the hotel lobby has a lazy door
The man inside is going to a hotel room
He jumped out right after seeing just the very sight of me
Decided he better hike it to the second floor
It's temporary, this place I'm in
I permanently won't do this again
My belongings scattered all across the hotel floor
An hour later I was thinking it over by the snack machine
I thought about you and a candy bar
An hour later melon gum stuck between my teeth
I fell asleep to the greatest movie of the year
It gets lonely for heavens sake
Was wondering only what did you do today
The world is spinning round to an old sad love song
It's coming down outside like I've never even seen before
I fell into some kind of sorry state
But looking back now I think its finally time for me to laugh about it
Get my things together and find something to say
Well I feel awful and I believe that time gets wasted in this misery

Worn and tattered, evils of the Western world
Real better, over in America
The weather, so serene and calm
Unseasonably warm
Light a candle for the sufferin' ones
Light a candle for the weak and the small
God damn it, there's a lot of 'em
Kinda think that in the modern world
Holy terror
Asleep when the alarms went off
You're in the mirror
Studyin' your golden locks
I love you
Lets marry when the time is right
Or whenever, you like
Say a prayer for all the people that died
Say another for me once in awhile
I hit rock bottom, I'm gettin' old
I was really hopin' that the modern world...
Happy livin' in a dumpster world
Break out everybody in the jail,
Lets get it on
Let out the wolves
I'm happy livin' in a dumpster world
Bring on the booze
Start it off
We won't be arrested,
For nothin' now
Don't pick up that trash
Put, more of it on the ground
Bust out the drugs
I'm happy livin' in a dumpster world
Everyone in jail
Yeah, lets get it on
Let out all the wolves
I'm happy livin' in a dumpster world
That's mine now
Come and get it on
Bust out the drugs
Light a candle for the sufferin' ones
Light a candle for the weak and the small
Say a prayer for all the people who've gone
