artists i find very inspiring and worthy of a listen or two
come quick, you light that knows no evening, come alone to the alone!
there are a thousand half-loves well worth leaving for to take your madness home
don't you ever wanna see
if there could be more to you than lies and deceit?
we live in low-rent, find God in basements,
what will sustain you? my family hates you
everyone's a building burning,
with no one to put the fire out
your handwriting is an even mix of your parent's influence
i hope i see it again
why'd you have to leave me like that?
the rain is washing out the snow
we play the card games that we know
I still go out by the old house
where I met you our first summer
i had a moment of serenity
once when i was young, when i knew nothing but the feeling of
the sun
i'm simply not done with you yet
we're gonna die like this, you know
oh suzanna, i think you stay up way too late
you smoke too many cigarettes and barely ever eat
guess what?
what else could i do?
the coldest eyes on me fell
in the middle of the winter
you don't have a clue
what it is like to be next to you.
TAKE all that you've LEARNED and all that you've LIVED to UNDERSTAND
that it TAKES all that i HAVE and all that i KNOW just to HOLD ON
i wish i could step from this scaffold
onto soft green pasture shopping malls
or bed with my family and my pastor and my grandfather who's dead
STILL CRIES AT A GOOD FILM
STILL KISSES WITH SALIVA
(i only wish i could fall in)
i wanna be the last thing that you hear when you're falling asleep
now it's over and I can't stay sober,
but it isn't like I've tried
i keep moving around
when all i want is to lay motionless
last night something pretty bad happened
