Swing

Still dont mean nothin
Was written on the concrete
The words werent on my tongue
So we dont talk about it
Day nor evenin, fashion or superman
Just little warped people, with little black minds
Chorus:
Well I wasnt sure just what to think
Say the lights went out
Somebody, somebody swing
Dont wanna, dont wanna talk anymore
Somebody swing, dont wanna talk no..no
What if were tainted
Who can we lie to
What if were dying
Would you just walk around it
(chorus)
Set your balance, keep your head down,
Watch your anger boy, realize you could know
This is balance, look for reason,

High

She had said, dont cry
Said it only hurts forever, and all we have is time
And she said, she will never know
So close your eyes, turn down the lights,
And I can start this show
Chorus:
Yeah well I cant sleep, so why believe
If the shades are drawn, then she cant see
So dont look at pride, well there is no other way...no
Dont try to make no sense of this scene, its just between caroline and me
And we keep changing (anyway)
Yeah we can grow like a board on the shore (floor)
She says Im restless just a little more time
Well you know damn well she wants to feel this high
Yeah we knew just who we were
Yeah well who we thought wed try to be
And who its gonna hurt
Oh but if I said, if I was strong at all
Yeah that I wouldnt be with someone else
I know where I bet all

Argue

She dont, but she will
He says anything to keep her by him
She takes, what she gets, and she never did flinch
So over, and over, anyone
With any mind would think thats all she gets
(chorus)
If you want you can get to know me well
We get along so we shouldnt argue
And I dont know, said I dont know
All these feelings, cloud up my reasoning
Cloud up my reasoning
I know, but I still
Believe in ignorance as my best defense
So go on, wreck me
Funny how I carry on, and not be taken over
Will not roll over on anyone,
Cuz anyone would stand up on my side
(chorus)
You know its funny how sometimes,
It dont work out like you want to

You & I & I

Yeah its for sure
But things came down hard
But you couldnt wait and see
Well all I ever think about is myself
Well anyone else, well they get strung out
But I get high, high, high
Chorus 1:
But its something, you better get straight
I aint got no room in my heart
Lift up the anchor well set it straight, yeah
Chorus 2:
Stop, well i, I dont wanna thank you
Honey I dont think so, youd better stop
Well try, and if theres a distance here between us
Its you and i, and I and I and i
Yeah well its ashame, you pander to me
Cmon stroke on my ego
Well like its never been broke before yeah by anyone else
And what doesnt kill you, it makes you linger
It makes you wonder, yeah

You Won't Be Mine

Take your head around the world
See what you get
From your mind
Write your soul down word for word
See who's your friend
Who is kind
It's almost like a disease
I know soon you will be
Over the lies, you'll be strong
You'll be rich in love and you will carry on
But no - oh no
No you won't be mine
Take your straight line for a curve
Make it stretch, the same old line
Try to find if it was worth what you spent
Why you're guilty for the way
You're feeling now
It's almost like being free
And i know soon you will be
Over the lies, you'll be strong

Smooth

Man its a hot one
Like seven inches from the midday sun
I hear you whisperin words that will melt everyone
But you stay so cool
My munequita, my spanish harlem mona lisa
Youre my reason for reason
But step in my groove
Chorus 1
And if you said
This life aint good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my life to better suit your mood
Because youre so smooth
Chorus 2
An its just like the ocean
Under the moon
Well thats the same as the emotion
That I get from you
You got the kind of lovin
That can be so smooth

3 Am

She says its cold outside and she hands me my raincoat
Shes always worried about things like that
She says its all gonna end and it might as well be my fault
And she only sleeps when its raining
And she screams and her voice is straining
(chorus)
She says baby
Its 3 am I must be lonely
When she says baby
Well I cant help but be scared of it all sometimes
Says the rains gonna wash away, I believe it
Shes got a little bit of something, God its better than nothing
And in her color portrait world, she believes that shes got it all
She swears the moon dont hang quite as high as it used to
And she only sleeps when its raining
And she screams and her voice is straining
(chorus)
She believes that life is made up of all that youre used to
And the clock on the wall has been stuck at three for days, and days
She thinks that happiness is a mat that sits on her doorway

Kody

Kody sat down on the avenue
He tapped his feet to the humming of the highway
He watched the light shine down on the broken glass, and thought
I dont got no reasons, yet
There it is and there it was
It was clear to all of us
We kept this hat of broken dreams
And we pulled them out, when we needed them around
(chorus)
So please hand me a bottle, I think Im lonely now
And please give me direction, I think the hurt set in
And I dont feel nothing, yet
Theres a squeak hinge down on the back gate
It lets us know if he comes around
But I dont sleep that good anyway
And if youve never heard that silence, its a God awful sound
I dont feel nothing, no I dont feel nothing
Theres nothing to feel good about here
Dont much get down to the avenue
I could drive

Angry

So scream you, out from behind the bitter ache
Heavy on the memory, you need most
Still want love, ugly, smooth and delicate
Not without affection, not alone
And instead of wishing that it would get better
Man youre seeing that you just get angrier
And its good that Im not angry
I just need to get over
Im not angry, anymore
Cry when you cry, run when you run
Love when you love
Represent the ashes
That you leave behind
And instead of wishing that the road had shoulder
Man youre seeing that youre sinking over time
And its good that Im not angry
I just need to get over
Im not angry
Its dragging me under
Im not angry

Dizzy

And outside...the sky is falling
We were dodging raindrops, staying dry
And inside, I never gave a damn bout those outside people anyway
And it hurt me, they dont even know I am
And inside...theres no labels
And inside, I try I try I try, try to clear my head
And outside...the rain is drying
And inside, were dying
Cause in here, Im staring at the rings my coffee cup has made on the table
And in here, I know I know I know, that this is as good as it gets
And in time I want to be the one that talks about the other hand
They want you now, count the cracks on the wall
Until its time to lay my head
And inside...Im playing with shadows
And inside, I know I know I know, that I feel this way all day...all day
And outside, theres hope for trying, and inside Im dying
You walk before me, and lord knows I cant follow
You walk behind me and I dont think I can lead
You walk around me, please dont walk around me cause you know how dizzy I get
