Landmine

Oh, I can’t even look at you
Without the burn that turns my insides black and blue
Wait, tell me that it isn’t true
You were just running out of better things to do
Didn’t you know
La la la la la la love is a landmine
Oh, the shells of everything we knew
Litter the wasteland at the end of me and you
Hey, you better pray it isn’t true
That there is a landmine out there waiting just for you
Didn’t you know
La la la la la la love is a landmine

Everything Goes With You

I look like a mess
Who the hell taught me how to dress
You sure did your best
But there’s nothing that can get through my thick head
But when I’m by your side
Suddenly I’m Calvin Klein
I never felt so out of line
But I never felt so right
Yeah I never felt so right
I mix blacks and bright yellows cos I think that’s where it’s at
Everything goes with you
Everything goes with you
My psychotic episodes
Slide right off your back
Everything goes with you
Everything goes with you
The chatter in my head
I don’t understand a word of it
It’s a foreign dialect
You’re the only one that makes some sense of it
You broke me out my shell
Stopped thinking about myself
I’ve never been so close to hell
But I never felt so right
Yeah I never felt so right
I mix blacks and bright yellows cos I think that’s where it’s at
Everything goes with you
Everything goes with you
My psychotic episodes
Slide right off your back
Everything goes with you
Everything goes with you

Lights
They were shining from the back of your eyes
I thought you were the meaning of life
I should have known that something so bright
Would burn out like a supernova
She wanna lean on me
But it’s hard enough for me to stand up
She’s eating me piece by piece
Next time I see here Ima tell her
Heather!
You can call me when you get your shit together
You can’t just play your games with me whenever
I hope that’s not the way you’ll be forever
Oh Heather!
Soon
She will decide to pull out the screws
She knows there’s not a thing I can do
Before she tries to break me in two
I’ll bite the bullet and I’ll tell her
Heather!
You can call me when you get your shit together
I hope that’s not the way you’ll be forever
You can’t just play your games with me whenever
Oh Heather!
I continue to give you the keys to my life
You can keep them pretend you don’t need them tonight
I treat the disease by treating you right
But you’re still bouncing off of my head
Leave me for dead and it’s all for your benefit
Heather!
You can call me when you get your shit together
I hope that’s not the way you’ll be forever
You can’t just play your games with me whenever
Oh Heather!

All That She Cared About
04:01
|

|
Never been too good at playing the game
Three personality types, the wrong one’s on display
Swimming around in her lemonade
She knows enough to not know anymore
Is that really
all that she cared about
all that she cared about
all that she cared about
She is so lovely but she’s not for love
I wish she could see underneath all of my self sabotage
And if she could how long would it last
Before she knows enough to not know anymore
Is that really
all that she cared about
all that she cared about
all that she cared about

Blame It On Me
03:05
|
|||
|
The further I fall the more I hang out to dry
If it ain’t her’s it’s not a problem of mine
She wakes up and she sets the morning on fire
I’ll be the fall guy if it keeps her alive
Oh you can blame it
You can blame it on me
Hurt now, hurt later, it will hurt anyway
But can we put it off for another day
One dollar coffee and an ornament smile
All I can offer but it keeps her alive
Oh you can blame it
You can blame it on me
Walk with me toward the light
It won’t hurt this time
I’ll be happy right in the line of fire
Oh you can blame it
You can blame it on me

Seventy Lies
03:35
|

|
I told seventy lies to be with you girl
I told seventy lies to be with you girl
How in the world can I make this right
I’m terrified of your big green eyes
In a minute my shitty little glitches will give me away
I told seventy lies to be with you girl
It could take as many days and as many nights to figure me out
Maybe for now it’ll be so fun
Until the ribbons in my brain come undone
And that’s the way I build it up just to see it tumbling down
I wanna love and be loved
Enough is enough
Of the covering up
I wanna be what you want
I wanna be what Im not
Just a son of a gun
Just a son of a gun
I stole every line to be with you girl
I made it seem like I was the light you need in your world
Maybe for now I’ll be what you want
Until the ribbons in my brain come undone
And that’s the way I build it up just to see it tumbling down
I told seventy lies to be with you girl
I told seventy lies to be with you girl
Enough is enough
I gotta leave it to luck
I wanna be who I want
Not just a son of a gun
Not just a son of a gun
I wanna love and be loved

1991
03:44
|

|
Thinking of a time
There was only light
Everything aligned
I was gonna be
Exactly what I want
Before I lost it all
I could only love
Cos love was all there was
I couldn’t see the lies behind it all
in 1991
I wish it was simple like 1991
I fell in love with 1991
Makin all the plans
Movies in my head
The sun’s a mandarin
Dreamin bout it all
Sleeping with the dog
Never giving in
Now I’m by myself
like everybody else
And all the pretty lights have been turned off
And I can’t see no-one
I wish it was simple like 1991
I fell in love in 1991
Wish I could open up this heart
The way it opened up before
I know I won’t ever get back to the best of me
I wish it was simple like 1991
I fell in love in 1991
I wish it was simple like 1991
I fell in love with 1991

Evergreen

Open up
Circle me in the dark
Only love
Lives in these trees of ours
And I know nothing at all anymore
There’s a place where you’re just as safe as us
In the middle of the evergreen
In the middle of the evergreen
If you want
We can be dilettantes
Play the part
No-one to say we’re wrong
And I know nothing at all but innocence inside these walls
There’s a place where you’re just as safe as us
In the middle of the evergreen
In the middle of the evergreen
Birds that live above like you as you are
In the middle of the evergreen
In the middle of the evergreen
Shoo nah meeama
Shoo nah meeama
There’s a place where you’re just as safe as us
In the middle of the evergreen
In the middle of the evergreen
Birds that live above like you as you are
In the middle of the evergreen
In the middle of the evergreen

Shiver Yourself Warm
04:01
|
|||
|
Waking up cold
Later than most
Stickin with the same old thing and expecting the same result
The pits of despair
It’s cosy down there
I could pull myself clear but tell me where would I go then
I guess they say you can’t get high before you get low
It’s a comfortable way to live your life when it’s all you’ve ever known
Yeah it’s all you’ve ever known
For too long
I found a way to shiver myself warm
Rain, hail or storm
You find a way to shiver yourself warm
Walking this road
Dragging my toes
I drift along in a cloud of smoke wherever I go
I think I can change
In the biggest of ways
But I’m scared to death it’s the same old trip in a different lane
I guess they say you can’t get high before you get low
It’s a comfortable way to live your life when it’s all you’ve ever known
Yeah it’s all you’ve ever known
For too long
I found a way to shiver myself warm
Rain, hail or storm
You find a way to shiver yourself warm

Standing on the edge
Shaking with the wind
I take another step towards you now
This could be the end
The start of our regrets
Nothing but the air between us all
Whatever you want
Whatever you get
Is more linked up than you think it is
Can’t you see that open door
Whenever you’re right
Whenever you’re wrong
It ain’t some kind of phenomenon
You got there on your own
If you wait for a minute
Let it resonate for a minute
Before we run away to forget it
If you wait for a minute
Everything can change in a minute
My world isn’t the same now you’re in it
It’s written in your eyes
We could be alright
We can walk on by your reservoir
Whatever you want
Whatever you get
Is more linked up than you think it is
Can’t you see that open door
Whenever you’re right
Whenever you’re wrong
It ain’t some kind of phenomenon
You got there on your own
If you wait for a minute
Let it resonate for a minute
Before we run away to forget it
If you wait for a minute
Everything can change in a minute
My world isn’t the same now you’re in it
Wait wait wait till the early morn
Say say say anything you want
I won’t hold it against you no
I’m not sorry to let you know
