Not If But When

Calming down
Same washing
One cycle down
Eavesdropping
You laughed out loud
Cold cold clouded
And turning out
More reasons
Not if but when
You said we started
I say begin
Even though
Any idols you find
In the back of your mind
Ceilings are closing in
But where would we have begin
Any idols you find
In the back of your mind
Ceilings are closing in
But where were we
If you find yourself in Vietnam
With your 89 mirage turbo
Run on sin like some
On the radio has been
Cause its Not if but when

Jamie was right
The ping in your heart
the love of my eyes
the common thread
a good vibe in your head
bring us back to even
won't you let us down again
Oh but didnt you know
what I didn't know?
The pinks peeling
slow changes through a
small tv light
what i never watched before you came that night
Take two then call me in the morning
Setting up for breaking it down
When my last show
had the darkest of blows
and when the spirits are high
and I'm reading through the synopsis online
Was it right?
Cause I made up my mind
Was it right?
Cause I made up my mind
Was it right?

All Along Your Way

All along your way
de-blooming
Coming up on green
too afraid to dream
Where is my sweet buddy?
I saw a stranger cry
on the street just by
It's not hard to hate
but would tell myself
it was just for me
You got
all the gear and all of the time
just a 2x2
I love you but I'm a choke artist
In my face I guess
All along your way
brought some tree of life to burn
and how I'm getting on with my alter ego
asking being cute
to tide you over
I'd wait forever
I guess I know what I was talking about
You wave
like a flag for bringing me down
talking all the ways
you could wait for everything
send it all on your way
You've got
all the gear and all of the time
just a 2x2
I love you but I'm a choke artist
In my face I guess
All along your way

Furrowed Brow

You’re saying I tried to
I’m saying I tried to spend
The whole day with you
And your vital sounds
And your furrowed brow
You’re staring at the cafe
Que Hora Es
Don’t even know my discography
Who? What are you a fucking owl?
You’re saying Im climbing baby
I like it high
Your song is queued
But what will I do with mine?
Who? What are you a fucking owl?
You’re saying Im climbing baby
I like it my
Promises from you
Are a low low let down
Your song is queued
But what will I do with mine?

Track one over your eyelids
Comebacks industry standard
When the critical marauders pursue
I’m sideways same as you
All your energy I am
Unplug fantasy island
When the chemical mirages ensue
I’m sideways same as you
But you don’t like the hold in my speech
When I’m keeping it honest
And I walk on by as before
You feel your haunted hand on you
Im somewhere sideways same as you
Don’t leave out hearts that hang on you
Im somewhere sideways same as you
And I wouldn't know what I would do
I’m somewhere sideways same as you
Unplug fantasy island
And keep bombastically rhymin
When the chemical mirages ensue
Im sideways same as you

Lisa Simpson Fangs
03:54
|

|
Wanna take a left to what’s right
Wanna feel your temperature rise
And I wouldn't know where to hideout for a little while
Wanna take a break on good nights
Wanna feel anything but alright
And I would completely hide
I would completely hide
I don’t know what it’s all about
I got the heavenly sway
But they’re Lisa Simpson fangs
And there’s nothing in my way
Wanna feed your dream a goodnight
Oh to completely fall behind
and I would completely hide
And I would completely die
I don’t know what it’s all about
I got the heavenly sway
But they’re Lisa Simpson fangs
and they’re nothing left to say
Tell it to my heart tell me that we’re not going under
Tell it to my heart tell me that we’re not going underground
the Milk you spilt
When time gets split
My mind is safe
Away from me

Horror Movie Plot
05:08
|

|
For a cold month the street stopped more than less is known
I was old once the heat was on and calming down was broke
Was a shoo-in, a cherry topped, a dying trend, a horror movie plot
Mmm hmmmm hmmm
Let me guess this right
and when if you decide
In the moonlight
It should be you decide
It's not unsportsmanlike
Hold your own head up high
Shoot for the moon and swing
It should be you decide
Let me guess this right
It should be you decide
You, you decide
give a try
hold your head up high
(And let me guess this right)
For a cold month the street stopped more than less is known

My Time in the Sunshine
03:19
|

It's always something when its blown out
Tongue tied and a trip to the louvre
wide eyed
and there's another side
I'd rather go and choose
let's wait for the ride over die
I feel it coming on 2x2 and
No one would hand it to you
The blue of my eyes from the vine
Its old not such better news woah
message goes cold and I don't ask why
Because the messengers drunk and I'm always high
But I hate to lose
(so/and) all I have to show for is
My time in the sunshine
My time 2x2
My time in the sunshine
My time with Judy Blume

Pear Plum Blues
03:29

Hey when you’re blown away
Freeze framed from the days
Illness of vanity to
Stay in your tidal wave
Cars melt in the bay
feeling off course from
your Split Screen summers
From the mouth of marbles
Leave your antiquated hole
When you say “hey, I don’t wanna lose”
Then you stuck me with your pear plum blues
When you’re razor thinning i will follow suit
and you got me with your pear plum blues
Wade in a blanket stare
That’s hardly related
If related at all again
And end with a day in bed
Planned out by committee
Of Henry & tiki
The men of action
Nothing does happen
An underbelly moan
Stay away I’m fine
Where have you been all this time
all of this time
bragging about how I
Tidal waved cars melted from the
freeze framed blown away illness of vanity

In an echo chamber of space and time
Dual angles cropped making a sound
So sad that you’re leaving
Buying sunscreen for the season
Don’t let being stuck
Get you down
And make some noise
The Mystery of being a boy
Mystery of being
I know where to start so don’t get me wrong
Diamond store diamond and a tiny round thing
Let’s make this real easy fashion skips every decade
How it actually happens aint allowed to say out loud
Avoid
The Mystery of being a boy
The Mystery of being a boy
The Mystery of being a boy
The Mystery of being a boy
(I got nothing going on)
In an echo chamber of space and time
Narrow hearts fall knee deep in the ground
So sad that you’re leaving
Buying sunscreen for the season
Don’t let being stuck
Get you down
And make something....
Wait! out of your mind
I don’t wanna waste what’s mine
Wait! out of your mind
I don’t wanna waste what’s mine
On the Left side, right side
The Mystery of being a boy
One two
hip not static
Three four
pouring concrete
Same clothes in a row
Turnabout is fair play
New reflection of me
Any wall hanging shame
Where the Hair gods have heartbeats
Let history remains its...

Sun Cancer

I'm staring down in between
on a kick that i'm not proud of
feeling some emotion
fresh in my mind
i like to write with my ring on
sometimes go out
sometimes get out of it
nothing
sometimes there's nothing
at all my good vibes
are how i wish you saw
and i wish you saw
an army of clowns
i saved a lo fi bad guy
red herring for you
Wait. We were all thinking of you
sun through the dark out
clouds in my
dishwater blonde for a reason
stay fresh in my mind
no rest for the wicked
vampire or a cool sucker?
I'm staring down in between
on a kick that i'm not proud
of feeling some emotion
dead in your bed
i like to write with my ring on
And i wish you saw
an army of clowns
i saved a lo fi bad guy
red herring for you
Wait. We were all thinking of you
sun through the dark out
clouds in my
dishwater blonde for a reason
stay fresh in my mind
no rest for the wicked
