Escalator take me where I can run blind,
Leave it all behind
I can do a magic trick with my hands tied
And if you promise me just one thing,
never break a promise to me,
because promises are fragile things,
sitting in the pouring rain.

Find Me Some Magic

Thanks for the questions now hold your opinions,
I've got a hole in my pocket that aint paying tuition.
All I need are some pills and a shovel,
now get me a doctor that weren't sent by the devil
I found truth in my own lie
welled up by denizens in their god-fearing eyes
so kickstart your heart and get down on my level
and bring me some magic that can save me from evil

Old Glass Bottle

I woke up yesterday feeling like I could move a mountain
and the void drifted away but I carry it around in an old glass bottle
Because I can't ever forget
that I can't be what I've been to me.
Wandered round for days
Livin' a lie that aint worth livin
With a head stuck in a haze
Where my mind stays blank, but my heart keeps racing
Now Im lying in a bed and the bed is on fire
I say that it's ok, but I'm not a good liar
Maybe just a waste of time
Maybe just a victim worse than the crime
I try to be more than a shadow
I try to bleed you out of me

I'm a bit busy
Too busy for a mind
I think I had a thought
I left it all behind
But feel free to leave a message
just after the tone
I might give you a call if I ever make it home
I find that being useful is the useful thing to do
Even if all I am is someone else's fool
Seconds turn to minutes turn to hours turn to days
But wasting time is easy with a head that's stuck in space
I work in retail (all my days)
I work in retail (Oh my god)

Buffalo Bill Comes riding into town with his finger on the trigger in case it goes down. He's got pin-up girls on the walls striking poses and a beer stink that dont cover halatosis.
He's got three teeth and only six fingers and I think his mother might be his brother's little sister. He's got half a half a mind to show you what's up, getting lit up and driving his truck, but he never turns his bright lights off; no way, Jose', swervin' down the highway.
Would you love me?
I'd love me.
I'd love me so hard.

How long?
How long will you stay with me?
I know.
I know that it hurts to breathe
Stay with me.
I've got no right to say goodbye.
I'm hooked to a machine that keeps my heart beating that I don't think I'll be needing anymore.
I play hard to get, though no one really wants me
I'm filthy and I need to come clean
I'm just carbon waiting to return to the earth.
We're all carbon waiting to return to nothingness
Oblivion.

Eyes on the road, can't say that I blame you
I'm the monster inside and I always get my way
White knuckle bones grasping your reins tightly
I'm in your blood
Flowing through your veins
And I always get my way
So stay out of mine
Leave it to fate and the kindness of cancer
Fate's a mindless instant right to the grave
All that you know is about to forget you
Nothing explained
Doesn't matter anyway

Hands off that cigarette, keep your eyes on the prize
You've got to learn what is a truth and a lie
I've been waiting so long to say "So Long" for the very last time.

Im out of my head and straight into the stratosphere
Staring at reflections that never look back
Something in your eye is screaming out "I'm sick of trying"
I'd never wish you pain, but I kind of hope you die
Something wicked this way came and went
(I know that winter aint over)
Thought for certain this would be the end

I've been waiting for a lifetime for it all to end
There's no explaining why
But then again
There's a static in my head that I cant figure out
Things are broken, parts are missing, and I hide what I can do without
I don't think that I can take the time
when time aint something I have ever had
It doesnt matter what you say
It's not blood I'm after anyway
Funny thing about me you all got wrong:
Thinking that I'm here when I'm so far gone.
By the way, I knew it all along.

Doesn't Matter (Pt. 2)

Should I stay?
Should I go?
Doesn't matter.
Did you know that falling from grace is as hard on the head as it is on the knees?
Darling please, tell me everything you think you know.
And if we fall, we'll fall down.
They'll say it's part of growing up.
But you talk so slow like it doesn't matter.
