lyca song
03:35
|

i was in the moon, i was bathed in it too
you're looking mighty bright in the laser light
sworn it all before, not gonna fall for that
racing around, all the way down and back
the scruff of my neck
the tongue of my cheek
you're not my mother but i'll let you
she was already gone when i met you
hours in the rain and the queen anne's lace
she was on her side in a tired mind
and the breaths were short, just like a medal porch swing seat
with every little cough, something shutting off on beat
abandoned for dead on albemarle street
you're not my mother but i'll let you
i've got no other and i'm wet through
from the stuff in my head to the jump in my feet
i had 9 lives and i left you, but I would never have tried to forget you

a hundred hideaways
02:37
|
|||
you don't sleep as tight
and i can't sit back alone
hard to feel aright
in the reaches of your throne
in the reaches of your throne
but you know we never had a hundred hideaways
and you always could find your brothers
for the coming back inside time of day
i'm sorry i'm just like the others
i'm sorry i'm just like the others
was a perfect fight
never got to the core
don't it feel alright
when it leaves you wanting more
when it leaves you wanting more
but you know we never had a hundred hideaways
and you always could find your brothers
for the coming back inside time of day
i'm sorry i'm just like the others
i'm sorry i'm just like the others
ah but we're singing for you

clown car
03:31
|
|||
yellow roads going all night
froze in the throes of the green-red light
the golden coal and the diamond heist of the clown car
and i was poised for an exit bid
if you looked sad but you never did
satisfied in the tireless skid of the clown car
but if i'm alright then we're all alright
and if you're alright then we're all alright
and if i'm alright then you're alright and we're all alright
aah
arms in arms in the green-red thrall
couldn't say where your eyelids fall
couldn't say you were here at all in the clown car
and i was poised to feel the glow
of all these strangers i guess i know
and the chevron white of somewhere to go in the clown car
but if i'm alright then we're all alright
and if you're alright then we're all alright
and if i'm alright then you're alright and we're all alright
aah

famous
03:38
|
|||
the kids were all at beck and call, you could tell them all apart
they knew a lot about it all and they knew it all by heart
oh yeah they should have been famous
remember lee at 17, had yet to leave a mark
his sister made the magazine and he sat in the dark
but yeah he should have been famous
hold a little tighter when she goes a little higher
so come on
hold a little tighter when she goes a little higher
so come on
and after all the alcohol and dancing on the lawn
string lights wrapped up in a ball and set aside til dawn
i drifted to the rise and fall, you sang into my arm
oh yeah we should have been famous

down on me (007 theme)
03:22
|
|||
was a sensitive boy
i could turn on a toy
you caught a shell of my former self
you caught a sensitive boy
i picked up on it late
and hung around at the gate
i took some time to get tired of you
but now i'm sleeping in late
sister i know you're down on me
sister you know it
sister i know you're down on me
and i know you know it
you know it
was a dreamer at heart
i saw the end from the start
and here was i trying to like myself
was i trying too hard
it may be a long life coming
but i don't wanna miss a chance to freak
spending all of your time humming
when our love could make us wanna scream
sister i know you're down on me
sister you know it
sister i know you're down on me
and i know you know it
and i know you know it

i banged the shit out of my leg scanning the crowd for you
amid the onslaught of the vague and the words that rhymed with true
you said you dreamed we had a child we couldn't stand to be around
oh but you dreamed we had a child
oh they were such good boys
the committee says make some noise
oh they were such good boys
but when are they gonna play
yeah when they gonna play
i got the fuck out of LA, saw the way the winds were turned
the spell had taken me for days fore i even felt the pull
i'll wait to get down on my knee til i can see it on a screen
i'll wait to get down on my knees
oh they were such good boys
mathematicians call for major chords
oh they were such good boys
but when are they gonna play
yeah when they gonna play
this is why is real because they have it
this is why it's real because they have it and you don't
i banged the shit out of my leg
oh they were such good boys
i got the fuck out of LA
come one everybody make some noise
i banged the shit out of my leg
are they really such good boys
cuz when are they gonna play
yeah when they gonna play

boxed wine
03:29
|
|||
the boys in your hair and me on the shoulder
the sorriest scare would've sent me hill running
but i was living for your legend
a table too big to bet in
and the ruse was the room, or the way you would walk through
and you were the muse, or the one they could talk to
if i was to learn my lesson
and if you were to let the best in
chute cold wrapped bone
i was in the state of texas
boxed wine, some light
we were staring at the ceiling
dark cage, 2008
you were only happening to me
in history
i followed my docent, all clumsy and tooth-faced
as moment by moment was spoiled by my suitcase
that i was in love to lessen
and i was too tired for guessing
chute cold wrapped bone
i was in the state of texas
boxed fine, summer fine
we were staring at the ceiling
laying waste, 2008
you were only happening to me in history
chute cold flagpole
i was in the state of texas
boxed wine, always right
we were staring at the feeling
a torn page blown safe
you were only happening to me

frogs
03:48
|
|||
we both woke up early on someone else’s couch
drove still drunk on main street with no one else around
our bodies quickly freezing, yeah we were older now
new years eve was beautiful we’d dressed for the event
got some wine on my tie so good thing it was red
you just smiled while certain things came unglued in my head
how we sat like frogs
in that spot on the rug
it hurts to know, my love
you always were a wallflower but i always would forget
we’d go for walks on saturdays all clouded with regret
you were something different i hadn’t fucked up yet
your mindset was a mystery I found it hard to gauge
i often would make speeches how we weren’t on the same page
you never knew I slept around, i guess I haven’t changed
I hate when you smoke
as you’re aware, I’m sure
and it hurts to know, my love
my love
we fell asleep a second time the sun was coming in
my cell phone softly nudging that it had to be plugged in
some neighbor couldn’t start his car, the engine sputtering
i ran across that length of bone
it hurts to know, my love can’t hold
my love can't hold
my love just can't hold

one eye love*
04:46
|
|||
i'll try to keep my sadness on straight, one eye love
come up here to watch it turn late, one eye love
used to have more stories than these, cut off at the knees i swear
tell me it's all lit up tall, one eye love
down along the museum mall, one eye love
feel that fifth avenue breeze and feed me your seaside prayers
got my hand full of leaves but the gesture just seems so spare
took them out friday to get waterphones
tugged by the train and the skin of my bones
always was blind when it came to my love
feel you in light turning under your coat
dashed all my dreams and i'm racing them home
and everyone's cheering but every record i hold
has an asterisk coming after it
pulled it like a picture of you, one eye love
stole it like the stairs down to your room, one eye love
miles from the traveler's post, see it hovering in snow and air
i tripped over your ghost, was it me who left it there
small bundle of clothes, was it me who left you bare
took them out friday to get waterphones
tugged by the train and the skin of my bones
always was blind when it came to my love
feel you in light turning under your coat
dashed all my dreams and i'm racing them home
and everyone's cheering but every record i hold
has an asterisk coming after it

nightday
03:10
|
|||
offered some and i was shrugging please
i was fucking rubber ducking everything
carving colors in the summer seat
wishing all the wishes all were free
the clouds that we found are down in the ground now
wearing your warm shade where i was always bound
stay out and slide babe, we got our own dance hall
welcome to night day, welcome to the slow fall
welcome to night day
offered some and i was shrugging please
i was fucking loving all the sympathy
feel the fury of the hurricane
wishing all the wishes all away
the clouds that we found are down in the ground now
wearing your warm shade where i was always bound
stay out of sight babe, we got the whole damn hall
welcome to night day, welcome to the slow fall
welcome to night day, welcome to the slow fall

back of the line
02:43
|
|||
like most things, you didn't choose it
drifted into it until you got caught up in the ties
of the heartstrings swelling with music
no sudden movements or you're straight to the back of the line
not your part of town, no you're just rooming
among the humans with no curtains or places to hide
all your heartstrings tethered the evening when you were leaving
you raised your hand, a not quite goodbye
to the back of the line
and then the ferry boat comes while you're sleeping
she sees you dreaming and warms and lifts you up like a child
and all your heartstrings are swirling after
all that you'd ask her, you know before you open your eyes
you're at the back of the line

hello
02:44
|
|||
poetry is hard when we're smoking weed
just catching all your high thoughts, the scrolling feed
i don't fix nothing at all
just set at some table sipping a straw
and if you want to put yourself there hello
how far we fall for whom we love hello
how strong we are when we're above hello
comedy is hard feeling this need
missing all your right flaws to cause a scene
i don't think it moves at a crawl
the splitting of a cable you're pulling taut
and if you want to put yourself there hello
how far we fall from whom we love hello
how strong we are when we're above hello
i don't plan the years in advance
because it's all the same
but i think i thought our kids would call
each other names
