Hello Everyone

Hello everyone, thanks for coming out
We used to play here sometimes
A subtle word, a gentle nod -- mmhmm
The beers that come with sliced limes
Oh the setting sun..!
Friends of friends of friends of friends of friends
They used to come out sometimes
Half the town would be lined up down the block
We laughed about that most times
And oh my heart was won
Beneath the setting sun
When everything got light
Walk the alleys
You were on my mind
Take us through the night
And show us all the shitty parts of your town
We don't have that here but if you look
You can see the stars from downtown

Anxious Love

Oh there was a song
A sound that was like a proverb!
While I was laying on my side
I knew that the world was over...
Oh my god.
Some people just can't settle down!
Oh this plague
Had a cast of a certain people
And I was shaking with my love
She held me and wiped my face clean
Oh my god.
Some people do not seem to mind!
Oh it's wrong
To be kind, to be cruel to be kneeling
And all these things I'm told
Should be kept on a golden ceiling

Modern Art

I can't read the news today
I'll just stay inside...
The sun has disappeared again
Behind the dusty skies
But you said too much to me
And I said too much to you...
And here's the scary part
Modern art! Modern art!
And I know just what they'll do
Because I've been here all my life
But they had a big head-start
Falling apart
Modern art...
Walking with their daggers
Searching for the king
I can't blame the season
or their precious reckoning
"But you know I wouldn't do that
And you know that isn't true."
And now here's the scary part
Modern art! Modern art!
She thought herself a painter
I knew her as a thief..
She tired of the scene
Which seemed to bring her some relief
But you know she wouldn't make it
And she knew that wasn't true
And now here's the bleeding heart..
Modern art! Modern art!

Slogging Away
02:44

Do you think that I'm slowly dying?
Take me softly by the hand
Listen close there is something I need
Can you take me ...can you stand?
Oh I know I've got my reasons
We binge watched all of the seasons
Fires burn and the sun is gone now
Have to sit here on my hands
Wish that I could be waiting for her
The door is open but I can't
Oh I know Jon's got a daughter
He shot her back with some water
In his yard one summer evening
I laid in the grass just dreaming
Keep it real, keep it nice and calm now
Walk each morning that you can
I'll salute to her basement nation
Now she's the singer of the band
Oh my god I almost lost her
Dancing in the holy water
Had to park here overnight and
I'm almost out of these quarters...
Now I'm just slogging
Slogging away all my days
And in the city
Used to be pretty
Standing in her son's decay

Pop Medicine

When you were on Kincaid
I felt like a cicada
Buzzing all the time..
And I never knew the chorus then
But I was doing fine..
When you were in that state
I felt like I could save you
Fucked up all the time
And you never had the cancer then
I never knew it
Had to show the world outside
That I could do it
Had to show the world outside
Two days...
Three days
Don't waste my time
Decent life, in her song!
Do something when I'm gone..
And I never want to live
Without you and all those
stupid songs that I could show you
Had to show the world outside
That I could do it
Had to show the world outside.

Say the words
Your tarnished silver tongue
You seem to be so confident, so strong
But I know what you're like!
The coat-tails that you ride!
But now I'm finally so over you..!
Precious scenes
Jackets, jeans I know
The cigarettes
The way you hold your phone

So Choked
02:09

This is the light I see and it wasn’t setting right…
Picking your love away…
Only a gun, he hid it..
This is the way that I look over my shoulder now
We used to look up at the face of the moon
It doesn’t matter what the poets are telling us
This could’ve waited til the afternoon...

Can't Fight Love

I supported the wrong team
Never really said much
That was the strange thing
That happened before you
But then there was you, though
Oh there wasn’t light then
I came back for the summer
Never really had plans and
That was the sad thing
That happened before you
But then there was you, though
Oh that wasn’t love…
Hold on….
Sing louder!
I had to love i had to get
Outside my old regrets…
Oh lord i was desperate then…
I was hanging on
But by a thread
I knew that you were desperate too
But there had to be something there inside of you….
I sailed back for my lover
Didn’t really say much
But I would discover
That I couldn’t belong there
Because there was you now
Hold on…
Sing louder!
I had to love i had to get
Inside of love
And know
It was you
