snail song

i saw,
i saw a snail
hunched back ringing bells
despondent night
roaming for a quick bite
can you stand this height?
asleep
asleep in hotel beds with parasites
i saw
i saw a snail
hunched back ringing bells

a reason to stay
03:44
|

some days give way
more than others, lover
a dead taxi and a pretty face
seem to know their place
for us it's not the case
listening to lack of color
on the porch
do you know better
than benjamin gibbard
and the spectrums he absorbed?
in a cloak and dagger town
do you see me upside down
surreptitiously turned around
or do you know better
ashing in the gutter
call me your beggar
listening to lack of color
on the porch
do you know better
than benjamin gibbard
and the spectrums he absorbed?
can you see me now?
it's a hole and corner town
i'm stumbling around
pieces of people fall over the edge
like rocks into a hedge
i'm trying to find a wedge
to secure the door down
are you gonna slam it anyhow
give me a reason to stay
i want to be here anyway
give me a reason to stay

doctor
01:58
|

|
wearing your raggedy shirt
clothed in your rapturous dirt
doctor don't ask me now
i'll furrow all their brows
i'm unhealthy anyhow
can you heed my advice?
keep away from the rancid mice
doctor don't ask me now
i'll furrow all their brows
i'm unhealthy anyhow

staying out late
02:21
|

what are ya thinking
going out tonight?
are you ready
for a street fight?
i've heard stories
of girls who cut their hair
they post paragraphs
and i don't care
you preoccupy your mind
you fill your time
but no time is given
to answer the question:
"where does the sky end
and the light begin?"
what did your parents say
when you stayed out late?
how did they threaten you?
force you to behave?
what do your old friends say?
do they call you brave?
do you still stay out late?
you preoccupy your mind
you fill your time
but no time is given
to answer the question:
"where does the sky end
and the light begin?"

pixie stix
05:38
|
|||
|
waited so long just to bum a ride
but it caused a landslide
and i know what it means
to be in your dream machine
can i bum one of your pixie stix?
you and i've both got the death wish.
and now i'm not sure why
but milk, rice, and a little sugar
sounds so so so so nice
that raven on your shoulder
he sings songs of laughter
and would it be terribly wrong
to mess it up and slow things down
i just thought things could be different
i thought you would have cared
but these secrets aren't secrets aren't secrets
until they've been shared

pretending to sleep doesn't work... well
doesn't work well for me.
your nose is close to my nose
your nose is close to my nose
lying unsteady,
do i taste like spaghetti to you?
i am awake
i am awake.
my golden boy tastes sweeter in the morning,
the snow has fallen without warning
and this bagel could be warmer
my first kiss
is a secret on your lips.
