The rain it started tappin' On the window near my bed There was a loophole in my dreamin' So I got out of it And to my surprise my eyes were wide and already open Just my nightstand and my dresser Where those nightmares had just been
So I dressed myself and left then Out into the gray streets But everything seemed different And completely new to me The sky the trees, houses, buildings, even my own body And each person I encountered I couldn't wait to meet
And I came upon a doctor Who appeared in quite poor health I said there's nothing that I can do for you you can't do for yourself He said oh yes you can, just hold my hand, I think that that would help So I sat with him awhile Then I asked him how he felt
He said I think I'm cured No, in fact, I'm sure of it Thank you, stranger For your therapeutic smile
So that's how I learned the lesson That everyone's alone And your eyes must do some raining If you're ever gonna grow And when crying don't help You can't compose yourself It's best to compose a poem An honest verse of longing Or a simple song of hope
That's why I'm singing baby don't worry 'Cause now I got your back And every time you feel like crying I'm gonna try and make you laugh And if I can't If it just hurts too bad Then we'll wait for it to pass And I will keep you company for those days so long and black
And we'll keep working on the problem We know we'll never solve Of love's uneven remainders Our lives are fractions of a whole But if the world could remain within a frame Like a painting on a wall Then I think we'd see the beauty then We'd stand staring in awe
At our still lives posed Like a bowl of oranges Like a story told By the fault-lines and the soil

the words flow decisions made idea's mine but the inspiration not dreams of hangers-on dreams of getting well spells of esmeralda amarose fortold
splinters in the eye sentiments remain bones are never asked where are we going to it was never up to me and yet i pushed until it broke
i love the open road and all that it suggests wheelwagon dust weeds and infidelities and always swore our love never questioned why in a wooden house immovable and silent and drinking strawberry wine forever lost in town
and through the sleeping streets nightbound and heavy wheels in a spoke just a spoken foreign sound
know my gates are high my friends even higher forgotten in my mind yet the scars still lingering cloud the blue skies i'm jealous of you birds was the only truth in a world full of words
hear the prairie sound in a friend called neil the heart is pointed down but my spirit pointed up his voice the siren of greek mythology
i pause with my pen i begin to defend every action taken every moment sealed when i was quick it coursed through open veins the will to live the urgency to move behind a panel door sealing cherry stain i played my guitar and lived those lonesome notes
like a dog that's down in a corner just aside waiting to be called waiting to be yours ghosts of a machine without purpose or will
i'll often speak of you but the you was always me 'cause when i speak of me it's me i ask of you so let there be no truth just trickery in rhymes time the only thing waiting still is death
i hope for resolution pray one defining moment pause without restraint barren without child a child is who i was a child is who i'll die a child is who i'll die
soot in my hair and stars in my hands soot in my hair and stars in my hands soot in my hair and stars in my hands

You and me Meant to be Immutable Impossible It's destiny Pure lunacy Incalculable Insufferable But for the last time You're everything that I want and ask for You're all that I'd dreamed Who wouldn't be the one you love Who wouldn't stand inside your love Protected and the lover of A pure soul and beautiful....you Don't understand Don't feel me now I will breathe For the both of us Travel the world Traverse the skies Your home is here Within my heart And for the first time I feel as though I am reborn In my mind Recast as child and mystic sage Who wouldn't be the one you love Who wouldn't stand inside your love And for the first time I'm telling you how much I need and bleed for Your every move and waking sound In my time I'll wrap my wire around your heart and your mind You're mine forever now Who wouldn't be the one you love and live for Who wouldn't stand inside your love and die for Who wouldn't be the one you love Seriously one of the best songs ever written.

The Happiest Place On Earth"
I want to pledge allegiance to the country where I live I don't want to be ashamed to be American but opportunity no it doesn't exist it's the opiate of the populace we need some harder shit now the truth is getting around and each public school is a halfway house where the huddled masses sober up and up enough? There's not enough to fatten the cows and feed all of us. Its just a rationing of luck what can't be bought gets raffled off oh god good god shed greed on thee, your shining sea turned a dirty green from the industry off the shores of new jersey I got a letter from the army so I thi8nk that I'll enlist I'm not brave or proud of nothing I just want to kill something too bad that nowadays you just point and click swing low satellite hot white chariot in the computer's blue glare the bombs burst in the air there was a city once now nothing is there our freedom comes at their expense it makes sense does it dollars and cents they're stretching barbed wire across the picket fence that is surrounding your housing development just in case you lack the confidence oh god my god give strength to thee these amber waves purple majesty are nothing but backdrops for Disney well look up close it is superimposed on a blank blue screen it is fantasy fucking magical the dreams floats like a chemical through each snapped synapse our television past that is beautiful no more no more
Catching toon... conor oberst rocks

blank page was all the rage never meant to say anything in bed I was half dead tired of dreaming of rest
got dressed, drove the state line looking for you at the five and dime stop sign told me stay at home told me you were not alone
blank page was all the rage never meant to hurt anyone in bed I was half dead tired of dreaming of rest
you haven't changed, you're still the same may you rise as you fall
you were easy, you are forgotten you are the ways of my mistakes
I catch the rainfall through the leaking roof that you had left behind you remind me of that leak in my soul
the rain falls, my friends call leaking rain on the phone
take a day, plant some trees may they shade you from me may your children play beneath
blank page was all the rage never meant to say anything in bed I was half dead tired of dreaming of rest
got dressed, drove the state line looking for you at the five and dime but there I was picking pieces up you are a ghost of my indecision no more, little girl

He's also beautiful...
The phone slips from a loose grip. Words were missed then some apology like I didn’t want to tell you this it’s just some guys she has been hanging out with oh I don’t know the past couple of weeks I guess. Thank you and hang up the phone. Let the funeral start. Hear the casket close. Let’s pin split-black ribbon to your overcoat. The laughter pours from under doors in this house. I don’t understand that sound no more. It seems artificial like a T.V. set.
Haligh, Haligh, Haligh, Haligh this weight it must be satisfied. You offer only one reply. You know not what you do. But you tear and tear your hair from roots. From that same head you have twice removed a lock of hair you said would prove our love would never die. Well ha ha ha.
But I remember everything the words we spoke on freezing South street. And all those mornings watching you get ready for school. You combed your hair inside that mirror. The one you painted blue and glued with jewelry tears. Something about those bright colors always made you feel better. But now we speak with ruined tongues and the words we say aren’t meant for anyone. It’s just a mumbled sentence to a passing acquaintance, but there was once you said you hate my suffering and you understood and you’d take care of me. You would always be there, well where are you now?
Haligh, Haligh, Haligh, Haligh, the plans were never finalized but left to hang like yarn and twine dangling before my eyes. As you tear and tear your hair from roots, from that same head that you have twice removed a lock of hair you said would prove that our love would never die. As I sing and sing of awful things, the pleasure that my sadness brings as my fingers press onto the strings you get another clumsy chord.
Haligh, Haligh, an awful lie. This weight will now be satisfied. I'm gonna give you only one reply, I know not who I am but I talk in the mirror to the stranger that appears. Our conversations are circles and always one sided, nothing is clear. Except we keep coming back to this meaning that I lack. He says the choices were given and now you must live them or just not live, but do you want that?

Bulimic rainbows vomit what? Burn Piano Island Burn! Coconut pupils never shut? Burn Piano Island Burn! Jigsaw babies and their bamboo stilts? Burn Piano Island Burn! Charred toucans weaving their black sky quilt? Burn Piano Island Burn! The sea shells scream out celestial code. Melting on the shore inside a flame sno globe. Burn Burn So burn Piano island! Torch the treasure! Torch the shovels! Torch these hands dipped in gold lacquer, Torch the finger-prints painting a violence portrait on spinal wings. I buried my bride of eight inch fingers neck deep in the hungry quicksand. I buried out children of pineapple skin where the generic sunsets sparkle so bland. I split my grandmother like a rotten papaya... our fright to pollenate the flowers of fire. I vomited my skeleton and donated it to the war mausoleum... I cut my will and testament along the scar tissue seam. I packaged my heart and fed-ex'd it to the octopus queen. Burn Piano Island Burn! Soured Palm trees sputter waxy wax stink. Burn Piano Island Burn! Boiling lagoons chewing bubble gum pink? Burn Piano Island Burn! The vikatin volcano spews and salivates? It's belly bloated like a pre-teen pregnancy? I fed its limp indifferent walls tales of an ark haunted with the five howls, I tied a nervous noose of piano wire and wrapped it around the mocking throat of the past. It's head erupted like a rabid roman candle as I kicked the stamp from underneath. Burn Piano Island Burn and drown all your fucking riddles down the throat of the sea. This one man raft won't be coming back so don't talk out of tune to me. From a distance the fornication of fear and flames twindles so pretty.
Thought I'd throw some Blood Brothers in there for you guys

Hand in glove The sun shines out of our behinds No, it's not like any other love This one is different because it's us
Hand in glove We can go wherever we please And everything depends upon How near you stand to me
And if the people stare Then the people stare Oh, I really don't know and I really don't care
Kiss my shades
Hand in glove The good people laugh Yes, we may be hidden by rags But we've something they'll never have
Hand in glove The sun shines out of our behinds Yes, we may be hidden by rags But we've something they'll never have
And if the people stare Then the people stare Oh, I really don't know and I really don't care
Kiss my shades ... oh ...
So, hand in glove I stake my claim I'll fight to the last breath
If they dare touch a hair on your head I'll fight to the last breath
For the good life is out there somewhere So stay on my arm, you little charmer
But I know my luck too well Yes, I know my luck too well And I'll probably never see you again I'll probably never see you again I'll probably never see you again Oh ...

See the stone set in your eyes See the thorn twist in your side I wait for you Sleight of hand and twist of fate On a bed of nails he makes me wait And I wait without you With or without you With or without you Through the storm we reach the shore You give it all but I want more And I'm waiting for you With or without you With or without you I can't live With or without you And you give yourself away And you give yourself away And you give And you give And you give yourself away My hands are tied My body bruised, he's got me with Nothing to win and Nothing left to lose And you give yourself away And you give yourself away And you give And you give And you give yourself away With or without you With or without you I can't live With or without you With or without you With or without you I can't live With or without you With or without you

When I first saw you I already knew There was something inside of you Something I thought that I would never find Angel of mine
I look at you, looking at me Now I know why they say the best things are free I'm gonna love you, boy you are so fine Angel of Mine
How you changed my world you'll never know I'm different now, you helped me grow You came into my life sent from above When I lost all hope you showed me love I'm checking for you boy, you're right on time Angel of Mine
Nothing means more to me than what we share No one in this whole world can ever compare Last night the way you moved is still on my mind Angel of Mine
What you mean to me you'll never know Deep inside I need to show You came into my life sent from above When I lost all hope, you showed me love I'm checking for you, boy you're right on time Angel of Mine (Angel of mine)
I never knew I could feel each moment As if it were new Every breath that I take, the love that we make I only share it with you (you, you, you,you) When I first saw you I already knew There was something inside of you Something I thought that I would never find Angel of Mine
You came into my life sent from above When I lost all hope you showed me love I'm checkin' for you boy you're right on time Angel of Mine (Angel of mine, oh mine)
How you changed my world you'll never know I'm different now, you helped me grow
I look at you, looking at me Now I know why they say the best things are free I'm checking for you, boy you're right on time Angel of Mine

She's not the kind of girl Who likes to tell the world About the way she feels about herself She takes a little time in making up her mind She doesn't want to fight against the tide
And lately I'm not the only one I say never trust anyone
Always the one who has to drag her down Maybe you'll get what you want this time around
Can't bear to face the truth So sick he cannot move And when it hurts he takes it out on you
And lately I'm not the only one I say never trust anyone
Always the one who has to drag her down Maybe you'll get what you want this time around
The trick is to keep breathing [x2]
She knows the human heart And how to read the stars Now everything's about to fall apart I won't be the one who's going to let you down Maybe you'll get what you want this time around I won't be the one who's going to let you down Maybe you'll get what you want this time around

Nice, Nielsbohr. Come on now, don't you want to see This thing that's happening to me Like Moses has power over sea So you've got power over me Come on now, don't you want to know You're a refuge, somewhere I can go You're air that, air that I can breathe You're my golden opportunity And oh, oh yes I would If I only could And you know I would And baby I, oh baby I I wish Come on now, don't you want to see Just what a difference you've made in me I'll be waiting, oh, no matter what you say 'Cause I've been waiting for days and days and days And oh, oh yes I would If I only could And you know I would And baby I, oh baby I I wish I wish oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh If the sky's gonna fall down, let it fall on me If you're gonna break down, you can break on me If the sky's gonna fall, down let it fall on me If it's gonna rain down, it can rain on me

Is anyone else awake Deaf ears on these words must fall Dodging friendly fire Marksmanship inspires The end that is never the end There’s no difference between foe or friend Blanks in the chamber, they’ll have you believe Faces so sober, trusting souls deceived Mouth less children, still promises they feed Bullets softer now, still we bleed The megaphone speaks still pulses race and scream Things will be quiet soon
