She Said Fine

2011-01-03T19:06:00.000-08:00

American girl, it was never enough

I was throwing signs in your direction

though you know it wasn't my intention to take you home tonight

we've been there before

you say i'm going off the reservation, was I ever on the reservation?

knew it all along but i threw it away, lights on our faces turns pale and grey

I always knew I would do it that way

you said you would always be fine...

hide it in a corner and throw it away, lock it in a box and forget my name

the selfish one that's cold and vain

American girl, I don't know what they want

always fire shots in my direction, looking for another one's affection

what keeps us up at night: it's bridges apart

the train has gone and crashed into the station

though you know it wasn't my intention

knew it all along but I threw it away, lights on our faces turns pale and grey

I always knew I would do it that way

you said you would always be fine...

hide it in a corner and throw it away, lock it in a box and forget my name

The selfish one that's cold and vain

The lights go out it's such a pity, buildings yawn in a quiet city

So please take me home

Chariots in the sky are falling, swinging low come be my constant

Please carry me home

Walk On By

2011-01-03T19:03:00.000-08:00

I know a girl who lives in a place, with all the things that used to be ours

she's got the time, she's got the face, she's got the money to get out

I'll give you everything i don't have to be near you darling

I've got a tale of cities too, to share with you

I know a boy lives in a dream, with all the things that used to be ours

he's got no time, he's got no faith, he's got no money to get out

I'll give you everything I don't have to be near you darling

I've got a tale of cities too to share with you

But you know i walk on by

was it real or did i only make it up?

I don't know

Hang Around

2009-09-19T10:29:00.001-07:00

I am lost but, I ain’t all that bad, the real estates in check
The roofs above my head
I am truth but the truth is sometimes bad
I’d rather play pretend now, a place to hang my head
So I hang around for you, and you hang around for me
And lately we’re both going crazy

Tell me you want me, I know you need me, I’m here on my own
They’re coming to get me, I know I wake up tomorrow alone

I’ve wasted time that, I can not get back
I’ve gambled second chances. on lunatics with answers
And I have gone so far I’m coming back
Your pictures in my head now, I was wrapped around your hand

So I hang around for you, and you hang around for me
And lady we’re both going crazy

Tell me you want me I know you need me I’m here on my own
They’re coming to get me, I know I wake up tomorrow alone

Shake, Shake

2009-09-19T10:28:00.000-07:00

I’ve got a point of view for you, you lead me in and out all over didn’t you
Shake it, Shake it, everybody gets some everybody gets some
Shake it, take it everybody gets some everybody gets some

Quick Quick turn the corner wait a minute slow down
Slow Down, slow down and I’m waiting for you
Quick Quick turn the corner wait a minute slow down
Shake it shake it everybody gets some everybody gets some
And I wait for you

And you give it and take it, Give it and take it
You’ll be all right tonight, you’ll be all right tonight

I’ve got a point of view for you, they stole your soul and then they sold it back to you…
Shake it, shake it everybody gets some, everybody gets some,
Shake it, take it everybody gets some everybody gets some

So who are you? Common sense says now I’m over you

Baby blue…

Pretty Girls In Magazines

2009-09-19T10:27:00.002-07:00

She said she’s moving to the downtown, leaving on a downtown train
And I don’t feel the same at no I don’t feel a thing
She said she’s moving to the downtown, leaving on a downtown train
And I don’t feel a thing at all no I don’t feel the same

Yeah, I got a funny crazy feeling I might never see her again
These times are strange and I thought I’d never be here

Pretty Girls are more than useless and I don’t need no on to tell me
Pretty things don’t last forever, baby it was us
So say, say, say it like you mean it and I don’t need no one to tell me
Pretty things don’t last forever baby it was us

Now I’m drinking in the downtown, with the girl from the downtown train
And she looks good enough for now, I think I’ll follow her back home
And I’m falling asleep from staying awake where’d you go now where’d you go?

Pretty, pretty, pretty things from magazines dance in my hand
I’ll close my eyes take off her dress and I’ll be there

Pretty Girls are more than useless and I don’t need no on to tell me
Pretty things don’t last forever, baby it was us
So say, say, say it like you mean it and I don’t need no one to tell me
Pretty things don’t last forever baby it was us

It’s allright….
Pretty things in magazines, playing in this company
I don’t see in them just what I see in you
Pretty girls in magazines, playing in this company
I don’t see in them just what I see in you
I know what you’re really thinking, tell me something more than this

Pretty girls are more than useless, pretty girls are more than useless, ,more than useless more than useless… it’s all right…

Show Me Your Eyes

2009-09-19T10:26:00.000-07:00

Daylights coming it gonna be something,
I know it’s wrong but it’s better than nothing, oh, I don’t know
Better take cover cause the wolf is coming
He’s got your name and he knows your number, oh, at least he knows
Here I sit alone and wait and there’s no tears I’ve forgotten how to pray
So I’ll fall asleep like I always do, say I tried and always knew
Your eyes would be the end of you…

I saw the devil on a red eye plane, I bought him a drink and he dropped your name…
Now it’s coming down fast like the Holy Ghost when I’m burning all the letters that you once wrote
Oh well, it’s coming down, it’s coming down so…
I’m telling all your friends, you’ve got it out for me
Bullet kisses through window, it’s good enough for me
And I ask myself I ask myself, time and time again, I brought a gun to your knife fight…

Show me your eyes

Daylight’s coming it’s gonna be something
I know it’s wrong but it’s better than nothing, oh, I don’t know
Better take cover cause the wolf is coming
He’s got your name and he knows your number, oh, at least he knows
Here I sit alone and wait and there’s no tears I’ve forgotten how to pray
So I’ll fall asleep like I always do, say I tried and always knew
Your eyes that once captured me would be the end of you

Now Show me your eyes

Silhouette Girl

2009-09-19T10:25:00.000-07:00

I’ve got her back in my arms again cause I know I can make her happy
I sweep her under the floor again, cause I know I can’t make her happy
I’ve been thinking about tomorrow, but tomorrow ain’t been thinking about me…

I get the feeling I’ve been fooling around
when what goes up never comes back down
I get the feeling we’ve been messing around
Can you tell me something useful maybe?
Cause I know where we’re going,now I can’t feel a thing

I’ve got a Silhouette Girl and I should know, how to make her happy
I’ve got a Silhouette Girl and I should know how to make her happy
You know you’ve gone away

It’s sweet November darling, the leaves have come and gone
And I know what’s falling from your mind
Take a long lost ticket to the other side blame it on a room in a paradise
Turn me on turn me off, what’s on your mind? On your mind…
You’ve got a dirty secret, wrapped up into pretty pieces
Give me a smile like you used to darling, I know where we’re going
Now I can’t feel a thing.

I’m a back seat driver all washed up, clean and sober polished up
Glass of wine on a wedding day, I did it honey and I’d do it again
Got knocked down once before, get back up what’s fifteen more
To a man with a heart that has no soul? I know where we’re going

Now I can’t feel a thing.

Let’s Dance Alone

2009-09-19T10:24:00.000-07:00

Let’s run away and take some time, we’ll come to someone’s senses
Cause my excuse is an alibi, with reasons wrapped in questions

Need a little time to get it right, to wrap my head around my mind, so come on
yeah, yeah, yeah so come on… Need a little time to get it right, wrap my head around my mind so,

Dance, Dance, Dance all alone now, bang our heads on the floor now
Run away and take sometime, We’ll come to someone’s senses
Dance, Dance, Dance all alone now, bang our heads on the floor now
The loneliness is killing me, so come on, so come on, come on let’s dance alone

We used to dance to the music but I hear no music, ain’t no rhythm now more
I don’t really know it will be all right or where you’re going out tonight
Now I’m a believer but I can’t believe that we’re better of being alone
My gypsy smile and your angel eyes say hello just to say goodbye now

Dance, Dance, Dance all alone now, bang our heads on the floor now
Run away and take sometime, We’ll come to someone’s senses
Dance, Dance, Dance all alone now, bang our heads on the floor now
The loneliness is killing me, so come on, so come on, come on let’s dance alone

I’m not going out tonight, I’ve got nothing to do but time
Say hello just to say goodbye, so come on, so come on, so com on, so come on and…

Dance, Dance, Dance all alone now, bang our heads on the floor now
Run away and take sometime, We’ll come to someone’s senses
Dance, Dance, Dance all alone now, bang our heads on the floor now
The loneliness is killing me, so come on, so come on, come on let’s dance alone

Bullet On A Thread

2009-09-19T10:23:00.001-07:00

I don’t care what happens to me, you don't care, what happened to you

I’m in the shadows of a worthless town, In the shadows where I’m breaking down, The day…

And I know it’s late, and there’s nothing left to do…
And I know it’s strange, at this table built for two

I’m in the shadows of a worthless town, In the shadows where I’m breaking down, The day…

All my best around you know I really wish you well
It’s got me hanging around, I’m a bullet on a thread, and I said…
All my best around you know I really wish you well
It’s got me hanging around, I’m hanging around

I'm in the shadows of a worthless town today

Give me one more chance to make it right, I’m a drifter killing time
Talking to the walls I’m floating through
It’s a mess a screwed up place in time, it’s a fucked up vision of reason & rhyme
I don’t know just where I’m going to be

I’m In the shadows of a worthless town, Breaking down the day

All my best around you know I really wish you well
It’s got me hanging around, I’m a bullet on a thread
All my best around you know, I really wish you well
It’s got me hanging around, I’m hanging around

Goodnight.
