smeared black ink
your palms are sweaty
and i'm barely listening
to last demands
i'm staring at the asphalt wondering
what's buried underneath
where i am
where i am
i'll wear my badge
a vinyl sticker with big block letters
adherent to my chest
that tells your new friends
i am a visitor here; i am not permanent
and the only thing keeping me dry is
where i am
you seem so out of context
in this gaudy apartment complex
a stranger with your door key
explaining that i'm just visiting
and i am finally seeing
why i was the one worth leaving
why i was the one worth leaving
d.c. sleeps alone tonight
(alone, alone, alone...)
(where i am)
you seem so out of context
in this gaudy apartment complex
a stranger with your door key
explaining that i'm just visiting
and i am finally seeing
why i was the one worth leaving
why i was the one worth leaving
the district sleeps alone tonight
after the bars turn out their lights
and send the autos swerving
into the loneliest evening
and i am finally seeing
why i was the one worth leaving
why i was the one worth leaving
why i was the one worth leaving
why i was the one worth leaving

Yellow
04:24
|

look at the stars
look how they shine for you
and everything you do
yeah, they were all yellow
i came along
i wrote a song for you
and all the things you do
and it was called "Yellow"
so then I took my turn
oh, what a thing to have done
and it was all yellow
your skin, oh yeah, your skin and bones
turn into something beautiful
you know, you know i love you so
you know i love you so
i swam across
i jumped across for you
oh, what a thing to do
'cause you were all yellow
i drew a line
i drew a line for you
oh, what a thing to do
and it was all yellow
your skin, oh yeah, your skin and bones
turn into something beautiful
and you know
for you, i'd bleed myself dry
for you, i'd bleed myself dry
it's true, look how they shine for you
look how they shine for you
look how they shine for
look how they shine for you
look how they shine for you
look how they shine
look at the stars
look how they shine for you
and all the things that you do

Green
05:04
|

this is erosion
grinding up rocks with your molars
a big fish swims past your rod
you can’t catch it, it’s far too fast
deep hook marks in rubber lips
i see your eyes in the flowers
i’ll pick a bunch for your room
green and blue to match your pictures
you looked so good in green
i hope you’re well
and you look so good with him
and I’m proud of you still
i miss your perfect teeth
i was too blunt
i hope you feel happy
that’s all i want
that's all i want
mess in the kitchen
i was so disappointed
i guess i got to my head
and i was too young to understand it
i get it now that it’s too late
i never stopped feeling guilty
i’m over it, i promise that
i just gotta sing it out of me
you looked so good in green
i hope you’re well
and you look so good with him
and i’m proud of you still
take care of my shirt
warm and red
i hope you think of me
still as your friend
i hope you love yourself
your body and heart
i hope you feel happy
that’s all i want
that’s all i want
that’s all i want
that’s all i want
that’s all i want

Worlds Apart
03:28
|
|||
am i afraid of you?
or do i pretend i don't care?
just like the stars can tell all the worlds apart
i'll be here in the dark
i stayed inside to watch the rain again
i watched all of my movies from the end to the start
and i can't help but think about you now when the trailers start
cause i know we're worlds apart
now i stand here unknown
a voice in the hall
you're famous for something
it's hard to recall
will anything change?
it's stuck on replay
our room is now vacant
the beds are well made
do i exist in your heart?
or did the ship sail away while i was in the gift shop?
you swim with the sharks
and i know we're worlds apart
now i stand here unknown
a voice in the hall
you're famous for something
it's hard to recall
we don't have a choice
the curtains have closed
i'm making a point
but you'll never know
know, know, know

Across the Universe
02:57
|
|||
words are flowing out
like endless rain into a paper cup
they slither while they pass
they slip away across the universe
pools of sorrow waves of joy
are drifting through my open mind
possessing and caressing me
jai guru deva
om
nothing's gonna change my world
nothing's gonna change my world
nothing's gonna change my world
nothing's gonna change my world
images of broken light
which dance before me like a million eyes
they call me on and on across the universe
thoughts meander like a restless wind
inside a letter box
they tumble blindly as they make their way
across the universe
jai guru deva
om
nothing's gonna change my world
nothing's gonna change my world
nothing's gonna change my world
nothing's gonna change my world
sounds of laughter shades of earth
are ringing through my open views
inciting and inviting me
limitless undying love
which shines around me like a million suns
it calls me on and on across the universe
jai guru deva
om
nothing's gonna change my world
nothing's gonna change my world

Sleep Spent
03:11
|
|||
i can't expel the truth
it's much more than i thought i could do
and with time my worth will stain
and split your heart from my name
so drive away
your mouth from my ears
and waste a day
so i can think clearly
and what's left to wait for here
as my hands sleep spent this last year
choking the bottle's neck
that pulled you from my bed
so drive away
your mouth from my ears
and waste a day
so i can think clearly
drive away
your mouth from my ears
and waste a day
so i can think clearly
so i can think clearly
so i can think clearly
so i can think clearly

Lightning Rod
02:41
|
|||
standing on a building, i am a lightning rod
and all these clouds are so familiar
descending from the mountaintops, the gods are threatening
but i will return an honest soldier
home
steady on this high rise, like every lightning rod
and all these clouds are boiling over
swimming in adrenaline, the sky is caving in
but i will remain the honest soldier
home
home

world is covered by our trails
scars we cover up with paint
watch them preach in sour lies
i would rather see this world through the eyes of a child
through the eyes of a child
darker times will come and go
times you need to see her smile
and mothers' hands are warm and mild
i would rather feel this world through the skin of a child
through the skin of a child
when a human strokes your skin
that is when you let them in
let them in before they go
i would rather feel alive with a childlike soul
with a childlike soul
please don't leave me here

Kids
03:30
|
|||
oh i'm just a kid
i never use my brain
i only use my heart
and my imagination
oh i'm just a kid
i always make mistakes
and i never say i'm sorry
cause they're mistakes that i made
oh i'm just a kid
i've never seen the world
and i haven't quite decided
if i'm a boy or a girl
oh i'm just a kid
i'm afraid of the dark
but i'm obsessed with ideas
one day i'll go far
oh i'm no longer a kid
and everything has changed
there's nothing in my heart
and lightning in my brain
so listen up you kids
and hear what i say
don't listen to your brain
and follow your dreams
oh i'm no longer a kid
and everything has changed
there's nothing in my heart
and lightning in my brain
so listen up you kids
and hear what i say
don't listen to your brain
and follow your dreams
