Severed Hearty Mums
A row of yellow in this yard ~ A million if you said you wanted ~ I would do just about anything ~ As they grew I sat and hoped for ~ Your forgiveness but none offered ~ You chopped them down and you walked away ~ I thought everything was alright ~ Can you see the differences in me ~ But everything has turned to night ~ And all that grows here is weeds ~ Severed hearty mums
Sanitarium
Now I sit and stare into the burning sun ~ It all fades to black in this sanitarium ~ Now I don’t care if tomorrow never comes ~ I’ve got some new friends in this sanitarium ~ Now my friends don’t come to see me ~ And if they did, I wouldn’t know who they are ~ I know they’d ask me exactly when I cracked ~ I’ve been lost so long, I aint never coming back ~ Now I sit and stare into the burning sun ~ It all fades to black in this sanitarium ~ Now I don’t care if tomorrow never comes ~ I’ve got some new friends in this sanitarium ~ Now you might not think I’m crazy ~ And now I’m right where I belong ~ I’ve got to tell you that I made it home at last ~ I ain’t lost my mind, I’ve just given up on the past ~ Now I sit and stare into the setting sun ~ It all fades to black in this sanitarium
Rotting Pinata
Get on the rodeo that is your life ~ Beat on me spill my insides out on the ground ~ Cut on me I will go when I say die ~ I will rot away like a rotting pinata ~ See my soul it cuts like a hole in the sky ~ Standing near watch the birds eat out my eyes ~ It will rot away like a rotting pinata ~ Here lies this junk of me ~ Here lies this wreak that was me ~ Oh god helps me rot I don’t look quite the same ~ Grab my beating heart ~ Tear it from this broken cage today ~ I’m rotting, I’m coloring ~ I’m red and black ~ I’m twice my size ~ Don’t cry for me ~ Just pull the plug ~ And let me fly ~ I will rot away like a rotting pinata
Rainin’
Now and forever the moment is gone and time runs out ~ Then it hits you with the pain ~ Things are great on the way up ~ But nobody’s with you when you’re on the way down ~ You got what you wished for is that what you really wished for ~ It’s how I think of you raining in my house ~ Indecision problems that took years to build and build ~ And admission is to far away ~ Life in a black out is like life in a storm ~ When you finally come out you see you’re all alone ~ You got what you wished for is that what you really wanted ~ The day you break is the day you’re born ~ Then you deal with the blame ~ Is that what you wished for is that what you really wanted
Radio Prayer Line
Driving home late one night ~ Under lazy moon and green dashboard light ~ Turned on the radio ~ Heard a voice I heard before say ~ “That I ran away from home when I was 13 years old and why is the world so cold?” ~ And you hope that the life ~ That you’re carrying inside ~ Doesn’t do what you do ~ Doesn’t know the pain you’ve been through ~ That your mother left your father ~ She fell in love with another ~ And he took it out on you ~ I’m here to tell you ~ Everything’s all right ~ Your message found its way ~ Message found its way ~ On the radio prayer line ~ Radio prayer line ~ You’re feeling alone and lost ~ You can’t find your way ~ pain’s all you feel ~ Pain’s all that’s real ~ You wonder “Will I ever hear?” ~ You found someone that would treat you right ~ He doesn’t beat you ~ He doesn’t stay out all night ~ Now you carry his baby ~ You’re afraid he will run away ~ And could someone there ~ Please pray ~ He will marry you someday ~ He will love you for the rest of your life ~ Of his life ~ I’m here to tell you ~ Everything’s all right ~ Your message found its way ~ On the radio prayer line
Pollyanna
Look who came by again ~ For friendly old times ~ To see me ~ How long can you stay ~ Did you bring your disease ~ That makes me breathe ~ What you don’t know ~ Is I keep your picture around me ~ Your vision surrounds me ~ It let’s you know the power you have over me ~ Over me ~ I’ll find God for Polyanna ~ Send light to Polyanna ~ Find for Polyanna in me ~ I’ll find God for Polyanna ~ New life for Polyanna ~ So Polyanna don’t feel my misery ~ She don’t feel my misery ~ Here I am again ~ Left for dead again ~ Oh how sweet ~ Come back any day ~ Anytime is okay to see me ~ What’s left of me ~ What you don’t know ~ Is I keep your vision around me ~ Your addiction surrounds me ~ It lets your know the power you have over me ~ Over me ~ I’ll find God for Polyanna ~ Send light to Polyanna ~ Find God for Polyanna in me ~ I’ll find God for Polyanna ~ A new life for Polyanna ~ So Polyanna don’t feel my misery ~ She don’t feel my misery ~ It goes to show the power you have over me ~ Over me ~ I’ll find God for Polyanna ~ Send light to Polyanna ~ Find God for Polyanna in me ~ I’ll find God for Polyanna ~ A new life for Polyanna ~ So Polyanna don’t feel my misery ~ She don’t feel my misery ~ If you got your Polyanna ~ Come and weep with me ~ Offer Polyanna some sympathy
Plowed
Will I wake up ~ Is it a dream I made up ~ No I guess it’s reality ~ What will chance us or will we mess up our only chance to connect with a dream ~ Say a prayer for me I’m buried by the sound ~ In a world of human wreckage ~ I’m lost and I’m found and I can’t touch the ground ~ I’m plowed into the sound ~ To see wide open with a head that’s broken ~ Hang a life on a tragedy ~ Plow me under the ground ~ That covers the message that is the seed

Well she was clearly nervous ~ She asked me if I would drive ~ And I noticed ~ Then I knew ~ She had been drinking ~ And I always could read between the lines ~ There she was ~ Clearly nervous ~ Because there was something that I had neglected ~ I was obvious ~ She could see right through me ~ Then we made love, ya we made love, so unprotected ~ Now here we are ~ It’s a New Pop Sunday ~ We went too far ~ And now you’re gone ~ The brightest star ~ On my darkest Monday ~ Now here we are ~ It’s a New Pop Sunday ~ Well she was clearly nervous ~ And I noticed she had something on her mind ~ But I was cool ~ Yeah I was cool ~ I knew what was coming ~ But doctor’s ain’t really hard to find ~ Now here we are ~ It’s a New Pop Sunday ~ We went too far ~ And now you’re gone ~ The brightest star ~ On my darkest Monday ~ Now here we are ~ Forever gone ~ Forever gone
Neenah Menasha
To begin but not complete ~ To sleep but not to wake ~ To always be lost and never find the way ~ No thoughts or memory ~ No hope or tragedy ~ A mirror waits for a reflection of a face ~ To hit the ground and know the sound trial by mistake ~ Deaths a crown we wear around ~ Like a smile on a face ~ They will never hate or lie ~ They will never break or try ~ They will never break or cry ~ They will never wave goodbye ~ A silence that would not break the loss of a face ~ The face of a woman that arrived much to late ~ I break down and she sees the clowns I used to hide away ~ Death to clowns all their crowns and smiles on their face ~ They will never break or try ~ They will never hate or lie ~ They will never say or smile ~ They will never break or cry ~ Neenah Menasha will wait ~ Neenah Menasha, Neenah Menasha will wait ~ I break down and she sees the clowns I used to hide away ~ Death to clowns and all their crowns and the smiles on their face ~ They will never hate or lie ~ They will never break or try ~ They will never break or cry ~ They will never wave goodbye
My Purity
If I was dirt ~ That filled up your life ~ If I was dirt ~ So pure and so refined ~ I’d be the dirt that blackened all that shined ~ Which one would show a purity ~ Which one would show how curious this purity has been ~ My purity, my purity ~ My thoroughness, my purity ~ If I was dirt that would make you lie ~ Could I be the dirt in your irreverent smile ~ Please pass the dirt I’ll have some on mine ~ Which one would show my purity ~ Which one would show how curious this purity has been ~ My purity, my purity ~ My thoroughness, my purity ~ Drag me down and plough me under nothing stays the same ~ Drag me down and plough me under nothing will ever change? ~ If I was the dirt you brought through the doorstep ~ And did that dirt leave you feeling molested ~ How was that dirt that you’ve ingested ~ Which one would show my purity ~ Which one would show how curious this purity has been ~ My purity, my purity ~ My thoroughness, my purity

My Baby Said
She was a waitress but convinced ~ She had been a dead movie star reincarnated to live the life of a queen ~ But the real scars she was nursing were not from her man but from a beast of burden because in real life she could not live her dream ~ All day long he drove a cab for 30 years he was the man to take you anywhere that you pleased ~ And for 30 years he was amazed he took care of his wife and her bad legs, he thought he lived a life like a Machine ~ And he hoped he could have been the drummer man in some great Big Band that would drive the world wild with his beat ~ Baby said she always was a dreamer ~ She ain’t scared with her hands up in the air she always was a dreamer ~ She’s a superstar can’t you see ~ Are stars made or are they born she’s glamorous but so unknown ~ And she’s always so well received ~ Easy to love and easy to please
Molly (16 Candles Down the Drown)
I see you naked in the bath ~ Cigarette stains on your hands ~ Wilted flowers in a vase and I ask how are you ~ I see your lipstick on your glass and I think your drunk and start to laugh ~ And I find your note the letters ran and it said I loved you don’t ask why ~ Sixteen candles down the drain ~ I watch you passed out for a while I touch your face you start to smile ~ And on your note is my reply I wished I loved you don’t ask why ~ Sixteen candles down the drain
Miles
Two brothers the walking dead pray for the silence the said ~ One shot to the sky the other held down by disguise ~ Sex for an angry man ~ To whores they can count on him ~ One made of paper the other glass ~ One will tear the other crashed ~ Oh god, was I that man up on a cross made of steel ~ Stuck on my wall cold and thin who watched me die and did not care ~ Miles to go before I sleep ~ The inside marched on the parade to the outside where no one came ~ What was there it scorched the ground ~ The other made no sound
Mekrom Bomb
Well she was clearly nervous ~ Cause she had asked me if she could drive ~ and I knew how did I know she had been drinking ~ And I always could read between the lines ~ Well I was clearly nervous cause there was something that I had neglected ~ It was obvious she could see right through me but we made love so unprotected ~ Mekrom Bomb gone forever ~ Mekrom Bomb forever gone ~ (Got me nervous) ~ (Dropped it on my head) ~ Well she was clearly nervous ~ Something weighed heavy on her mind ~ But I was cool I knew what was coming and doctors ain’t hard to find
Lucky
This little penny is to dream on ~ To make all your wishes come true ~ Hip Hip Hurray ~ I’m in my big black holiday ~ No bulls died today ~ There just ain’t that much left to say ~ The sun rose today ~ To a very unappreciative earth and sky ~ The land it recoiled ~ Asking as if it had said why ~ My ship leaves today ~ And I’m safely lowered away ~ Guess who I walked into ~ Guess who walked right up to say ~ A bloody nose and a bloody knife ~ Now I’ve disposed of my routine life ~ All seemed to implore seconds more ~ Give me more of this sublime night
Live Here Without You
Take my lips and sew them shut ~ Without words I’ll dry up and blow away ~ She said that we were both so out of touch ~ And when we talked we’d say things ~ That don’t mean anything ~ I hear your voice but you’re so far away ~ I can do without these things ~ But what I can’t do ~ Is live here without you ~ Live here without you ~ Live here without you ~ I can’t kiss you anymore ~ I can’t miss you anymore ~ Love’s not easy to ignore ~ When your hear lies bleeding on the floor ~ I’ll just sit and count the days ~ The days until you’ll be mind ~ I’ll take in air and I’ll fill up ~ Never breathing out I’ll burst into flames ~ Without you I can never get enough ~ Of the thing that makes me fee like ~ Life’s worth anything ~ I feel your touch at the thought of your name ~ I can do without these things ~ But what I can’t do ~ Is live here without you ~ Live here without you ~ Live here without you ~ I can’t kiss you anymore ~ I can’t miss you anymore ~ Love’s not easy to ignore ~ When your hear t lies bleeding on the floor ~ I’ll just sit and count the days ~ The days until you’ll be mind ~ I don’t want anything ~ Like Jesus or a Superman ~ I don’t want for anything ~ If you could be here with me again ~ I can do without these things ~ But what I can’t do ~ Is live here without you ~ Live here without you ~ Live here without you ~ I can’t kiss you anymore ~ I can’t miss you anymore ~ Love ain’t easy to ignore ~ When your heart lies bleeding on the floor ~ I’ll just sit and count the days ~ The days until ~ I can’t kiss you anymore ~ I never felt alone like this before ~ Love ain’t easy to ignore ~ I just can’t live her anymore ~ Time is killing me and I”m killing ~ Nothing but time

The invitations said that this was something new ~ a preacher will ask for more than two “I do’s” ~ In our wedding dance we will take the chance ~ That people accept our new point of view ~ With each one in hand the wedding party stands ~ 1,000 foot trains between the two of you ~ The flower girl launching from their hands one million rose petals that start up the band ~ An Imaginary Marriage there is always room for two ~ The brides and groom they dance across the room ~ a bouquet is tossed they leave to honeymoon ~ The traditionalist spit they choke and have a fit what they really want is to be in our shoes

Fields
Oh god, here it comes again ~ Here’s that memory that’ll just break my back ~ And when I figured it out I thought I’d get by ~ Here it comes it’ll blacken the sun it’ll bury me alive ~ Save me from myself turn around, throw it all away ~ Turn around until it all breaks down to the fields of falling angels ~ Best friends what we used to say ~ All this time it feels like yesterday ~ Remembering when we said goodbye ~ Still I doubt I’ll ever figure out why ~ Save me from myself turn around, throw it all away ~ Turn around ‘til it all breaks down to the fields of falling angels ~ If I die before I wake it’ll never end the sorrow ~ Save me from myself

Try to be what I can’t be I’m dying ~ I’m not happy anymore ~ I’m just not happy anymore ~ I’m drownin’ ~ Suppose you painted the castle of Auvers ~ But everything you did came alive ~ And if you painted all these things just to please me ~ And if you could read my mind ~ I would never be happy ~ What will change tomorrow in this sea within a sea I’m blinded ~ How long will I be down here ~ I’m out of air I can not breath ~ I’m drownin’

Candy Corn
Bless you bless our victorious war I play for you ~ Blood and candy mixing on the floor I close your eyes ~ Strings of candy corn ~ A string of pearls a candy for each day ~ Each one breathes memories in a hollow man who says I hear a voice ~ Strings of candy corn ~ All silhouettes walk in front of me ~ They fear your face when around their neck I place these candy beads ~ Strings of candy corn
