Summer Daze

summer nights
summer days
bluebird flights
summer graze
i don't understand why it has to end
why can't it be summertime from new years til the end
i just wanna sleep in that hot summer haze
i just wanna live in that hot summer daze

Escapee from the Banal

I wanna run away from home
In my car I won't go it alone
Me and you and some friends too
I won't miss the place from which I flew
I wanna feel the wind in my hair
Softly flowing in the air
No responsibilities, just the things to see
I'd love to be that free

life's too short to cry
life's too short to stay holed up till i die
life's too short not to hide
hide what i always kept inside
life's too short not to fight
against those who'd rather i didn't fight
livin, live your life as well
as well as you shall, as well as you shall
have you never seen the way those people talk?
have you never seen the way those men in blue walk?
men given power, men given guns
now they will shoot those who they will shun
it seems justice is blind to what's right
so what am i to do in the dark of the night?

Does anyone think of me
When I'm away
Does no one remember me
When I have somewhere else to stay
I don't want to be forgotten
I don't want to be forgotten
Obvious I'm tertiary
To everyone's lives
What do I have to do
How far must I strive
I don't want to be forgotten
I don't want to be forgotten
You may say I'm important
What of when I'm gone
I blend into the background
Until I fuck up

well if there is a god i want to track him down
and break his ancient bones and knock him to the ground
for having me be born 2000 miles from you
from you
yes i would murder god and i would take his place
us we could rule the world, me and you.
nothing would stop us from staying with each other
for all the rest of time.
june here and summer dawn
listening summer song
i sit up and walk thru the desert
midwestern july heat burns my skin
a million billion more steps till i reach you
i will walk as far as i can...

i spent nights in the city lights!
sirens and drunks yell on a red hot saturday night
2 in the morning and im still lying inside
the ac sputters, i pull the shutters
taking careless steps over the clutter
only music i have on my phone is gorillaz on loop.
sippin from a bowl of microwave soup.
i dont really care if i cant fall asleep
i dont have to wake to some alarm beep
(bass solo)

Gunlight

i read by gunlight
i read by gunlight
in the sunlight
at midnight
i didnt mean to
i want to say so
ooo...
pinks and blues
and whites and blacks
and the colors i want to wear
i am two, i am not who i want to be
please see.
(...ha!)
(..it is cold, i'm tired, i wanna go home...)
(go away!)

wait for yourself
wait for yourself
tell me stories
tell me stories
we're like the fox and the hound.
we like the endless sound

Endless Climb

i cant keep undermining my own happiness
itll take till im lonely for me to realize i was blessed.
i have to find another way
i have to find a way
i wanna trust my instincts, go back to how it was before
but when i turn the wheel things pile more and more.
i have to find another way
i have to find a way
i have to find another way
i have to find another way
[HIDDEN TRACK: How Love Dies]
well this is the saddest part
before they couldnt be torn apart.
two lovers with one heart
how could i know they would both depart?
how love dies oh dont make me cry.
how love dies oh it makes me sigh.
once you were up high together up in the sky
with him on the endless rise it's sad how love dies.

His Wedding

usually i really like the summertime
and i'm sure it must be a sunny day
but i'm not feeling very warm
in some indescribable way
there are lots of things we did together
there are lots of things we didn't
ya always knew what we should do
but we always did what we shouldn't
it might have been five might have been ten
years since we were with each other (though we were never lovers)
picture them on a hot day
through avenues all lined with trees
i can't take my mind off how good we coulda been
i don't give a shit how long ago, time goes too fast anyway
you said goodbye with your love and grace
and you went away
you haven't changed - or maybe you have - no i'm sure you have
cause you must once have told me you loved me
or i wouldn't have made such a tight grasp on you
it's true i was clingy and couldn't stand you leaving for any time at all
because i was a bad person
and i still am
remember the songs that i used to cry to? well now i wrote my own
now i wrote my own
i sat there on a fold-up chair
watching them walk down to each other, clearly in love
they adore one another and i hate it
and i hate myself for wishing that would he would look at me that way...
(and they kissed, and they said their vows, and it was over at long last.)
