No Need to Pretend 03:53

Tied up, tied down Friends with the ground Low and stupid Loved and confound I'm going away again No need to pretend I'm going wherever I want to be I'm going away again No need to pretend I'm going wherever I need to be We all worship The ever-whining sow Kurt can you hear What they're singing now? I'm going away again No need to pretend I'm going wherever I need to be I'm going away again No need to pretend I'm going wherever I need to be

If it were up to me I'd let it burn If it were up to me I'd burn it all If it were up to me I'd let it burn Let it burn from the top down Is it lonely up there? On your pile of cash? NEVER GET OLD NEVER GET SAD Do yourself well and burn it to ash NEVER GET OLD NEVER GET SAD If it were up to me I'd let it burn If it were up to me I'd burn it all If it were up to me I'd let it burn Let it burn from the top down Is it lonely up there? On your pile of cash? NEVER GET OLD NEVER GET SAD Do yourself well and burn it to ash NEVER GET OLD NEVER GET SAD

Empty Seas 05:30
lyrics

So you say you know You know for sure Do you now? About how I act and how I feel Do you now? Well I know something I do. I hope you're lonely, and cold, and disturbed, and crawling a the bottom of empty seas Just like me. You're a thousand ships Lost at sea Without me. I run around in circles with a cape. It's just not me. Well, who is this? I see Miss lonliness keep your hands to yourself, I think you've had a little too much to drink Just like me. Sing me to sleep I'm tired. You can't come in here know your place go away. All my words have a very bitter taste what a waste. you're no good for me.

Coming Alive... 04:10
lyrics
buy track
Tiny thumbs and huge middle fingers A memory that only lingers In the shadows that you make The poison you take And it's all just out of reach... for now Out of sight Out of mind Coming alive to fall asleep

I'm Off Again. Again. 02:39
lyrics
buy track
Put you on a shelf Share my drink but keep your secrets to yourself Lets go move along again Lets go you were wrong again Keep in tow status quo I'm off again. Again. Paint me skies Soft acrylic paint But leave your melodies aside Dead for Just the moment It's beautiful Cause I can see it Keep in tow status quo I'm off again. Again. I'm off again. Again. I'm off again. Again. When will it end?

My Mind 02:56
lyrics
buy track
It's empty in the sunrise and full in the ways you despise. But don't you ever leave me here don't you ever leave me here with my mind Dream of other things you could do distract yourself from being with you But don't you ever leave me here don't you ever leave me here with my mind Don't you ever leave me here Please don't ever leave me here with my mind

If I Say Anything Bad, I Don't Mean It 04:12
lyrics
buy track
Please make it through the night I think you'll be alright in spite of the fact that I'm losing it Maybe we're just right Maybe it's just the moonlight I take it back Every single word Don't cash in today Why are you so far away? In spite of the things that I need to say? Delay the decay Maybe it's just too late I take it back Every single word

...To Fall Asleep 06:27
lyrics

Fade in, fade out, fade in, out and away.

about

There was nothing in this place.
Nothing worth staying up for.
I creaked across the floor to the window.
Lifeless.
Waiting for something that I did not know.
There was a hole where the sun used to be
A bottomless orifice.
And I longed for something I did not know.
I wish I could have told you before the storm came
