i said i know. that's not what she wanted to hear. it's not enough and yeah it never is. this doesn't read like a love letter. the words are written right but it comes out wrong always. although it was meant to be it's just what i meant i mean what i mean. it still sounds the same the same as when i started the same as when we started. and if i did it again it'd be more like this. might sound like i'm cutting in but i see it clearer now i know it's right. it gets so complicated when you say those words. yeah you say those three words.

you're not so white as snow. your pillowhead nonsense talk is dauntless. i wish i could see you but i'm lost. and your actions they teach me without them i am flawed. wish i could be you but i'm not. though i'd like to be. you are indelibly. the blood has stained even your fair skin. pause. speak. stare. every living creature dies alone. i'll take mine.

she knows how to get what she wants. her eyes watching all the time. her pen always jotting something down. she knows who we are and where we've been and how we ended up here. her eyes always moving taking notes. her words sound just like a question. she knows more about us then we do and in time she'll know more about me. have you ever heard of gil trudeau. did you know her. did you see her face at all. or general lafayette. what does this have to do with me. would you blame me if i did.

This Happens Every Time

such a secret. i'll try my best to keep it but i talk i speak in my sleep. such a secret as god is my witness i will try. sounds the same but it's so wrong wont you call and tell me it's done. i've been drinking and thinking trying to forget what i heard and these people they just talk all the time. such a sickness i'll try my best to kick this but oh how good it feels. such a sickness my fever's breaking records and i pray that i'm healed. call and swear that it's done. i've been kicking a screaming trying to fight this disease but the drugs that you gave me are gone. and i don't know if i'll make it out all right. this happens every time. my eyes are open. i know i'll never be the same.

Right Angle

first kiss on the floor at a right angle. my whole family asleep in the room but all i thought about is you. and every time i held you hand. and every time we held our breath. all these songs and all their words i sing them for you. i wanna tell you i don't love you. i want to tell you we're through and i tried. but every time i see your face i get all. that was so many years ago but i still think of you. every time i hear your name. and every time i see our friends. there's words that say just what i mean but 'til then hold still while i distance myself from you.

it's not the words i say or the way i say them that keep you here. it's not the lies i told or the vows i broken that make you stay. i know it's just a matter of time until you're gone. it's not the case i made or the way you bought it that makes me right. it's just the way i am and i'm not changing that no not for you.

Same Song, Same Words
03:15

i should have crossed this off my list of things to do. i should have turned my back. i should have walked away. i should washed my hands clean of this mess. i should have listened up when they were telling me. as i sat in the park waiting watching for you thinking of what to say we knew where this was going. with my face in my hands how hard it could be wishing this was over. it's the same song with the same words yeah you heard it before. if i even tried would it even matter. would it change the way you write about it.

Cause For Losing Sleep
01:20
|
|

sit down. we need to talk. there's something you got to tell me. but i know what it is. but i got to hear it from you. i could be the one that makes you worry. i could be your cause for losing sleep. if you want to tell me what you want. and tell me that it's me. don't say you love me. cause i'm tired of hearing it. if you want to show me oh babe lets get on with it. she's got a lot to think about. i'm tired of being lied to. tell me how it's going to be.

Ballad of Jamie Cotton
03:08

this soul charges every other man and woman. every last name in heaven. sticks and stones and staples sewn in. the time is out the sail is gone. sound of the sea and the sand on my feet. the crash of the waves and wind on my face. i can see for miles the footprints on the beach. she'll never return again she's gone. she's all i knew all i ever did know.
