To Be The One

Well the pills I got they ask me lets go out for a while
And the knives up in the kitchen are all too dull to smile
Yeah and the sun it tries to warn me
Boy those wings are made of wax
While the things I do to kill me
They just tell me to relax
But oh cinderella
All dressed up in all your boots and all your charms
Im not the fellow
To protect you or to keep you from all your harm
And I dont know which is worse
To wake up and see the sun
Or to be the one be the one
Be the one thats gone
And the empty bottle it misses you
Yeah and Im the one that its talking to
And with you and I just barely strangers
Im pretty much just left the fool
Damn dont the streets look empty though
Just wandering round here without you

La Cienega Just Smiled

Ah the night...here it comes again
Its on with the jeans, the jacket and the shirt
Howd I end up feeling so bad
For such a little girl
And I hold you close in the back of my mind
Feels so good but damn it makes me hurt
And Im too scared to know to how I feel about you now
La cienega just smiles...see ya around
And I hold you close in the back of my mind
And raise my glass cause either way Im dead
Neither of you really help me to sleep anymore
One breaks my body and the other breaks my soul
La cienega just smiles as it waves goodbye
Ah the night...here it comes again
Its off with the jeans, the jacket and the shirt
Howd I end up feeling so bad
For such a little girl
And I hold you close in the back of my mind
Feels so good but damn it makes me hurt
And Im too scared to know how I feel about you now

Afraid Not Scared

Look at this ocean with everyone drowning
Idiots screaming and everyone sinking in slowly
We're surrounded
In the yellow lights of the city wasted as bodies
In bed with somebody a touch away with nothing to do
We're surrounded
I'm really dying here
I'm really dying here
And I'm afraid, no I'm scared
She started freezing, lungs all collapsing
The momentum is passing, but the moment is eating us whole
We're surrounded
Put the guns in the water, they're turning to vodka
Triggering nothing we're sinking the sea takes the ship
And I'm really dying in here
I'm really dying in here
I'm afraid. I'm afraid. No, I'm scared. No I'm scared.
I'm just scared. Just let me down.
I'm getting really cold and I'm cold and I'm looking at you
You're not moving

This House Is Not For Sale

Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
We're still livin' here, how come nobody can tell
They're takin' all the furniture, movin' our things
Come on little honey, put your head on my knee
Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
And calm down, calm down, calm down
Calm down, calm down, calm down
Do you remember when we even bought this thing?
I danced you across the wooden floor and you signed the lease
What happened in the car that night?
What happened in the car that night?
Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
And calm down, calm down, calm down
Calm down, calm down, calm down
Calm down
Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
We could grab a couple sheets, yeah, give 'em quite a scare
I remember lyin' on the bedroom floor
You were holding me, little honey, kissin' my soul
Tell 'em that the house is not for sale

Answering Bell

Did I slip? I know I stumbled
Did I trip? cause I know I fell
Alls I know is Ill wake up here in my clothes tomorrow
But oh, girl I wish I knew you well
But oh, girl I wish I knew you well
But Im just sayin hi, to your answering bell
Did I run? I thought I was walkin
Through your inexhaustible gale
The names are changed but the constellations
Are still fallin
Oh girl, if you could only tell
Oh girl, if you could only tell
But Im just sayin hi
Let your tears fall and touch my skin
Then your thunderclouds could rage and wail
I will collect them all for you in butterfly jars
And oh girl, Ill build your wishing well
Oh girl, Ill build your wishing well
But Im just sayin hi, to your answering bell
Did I sleep? cause I musta been dreamin

I Want To Go Home

Oh my baby I'm so very tired
And I wanna come home
Everything inside me, it cant hide me I'm expired
I got nothing to show
Whatever's on the outsides knocking, ya better let it in
Whatever's on the insides dying out
Am I gonna lose your love?
Am I gonna lose your love?
Am I gonna lose your love?
Am I gonna lose your love?
Once upon a time my life was sweet, and I was walking with you
I'm on empty, emptier than what I was I lost
At the the end of the street
Whatever's on the outsides knocking, ya better let it in
Whatever's on the insides dying out
Am I gonna lose your love?
Am I gonna lose your love?
Am I gonna lose your love?
Am I gonna lose your love?
Am I gonna lose your love?

Somehow, Someday

I want to tell you something
That I shouldve, long ago
I wish that you and I had those kids
Maybe bought us that home
I wish that we were stumbling fast
Down on irving and 14th street
I wish that we were still in your room
In your bed and you were holding me
cause there aint no way Ill ever stop from lovin you now
There aint no way Ill ever stop from lovin you now
No there aint no way and Im gonna try and show you somehow
Somehow, and Im gonna someday
I dreamt that you and I were still young
Laughing like little kids
Ill never know just how bad it hurt
Or what I did
I wish that we were stumbling fast
Down on irving and 6th
I wish we were still making plans
But now, theres nothing to fix

Dont Ask For The Water

I hate this old place
And what it represents
And I hate who I was
And who I ended up since
But if you learned how to swim in case youd drowned
Dont ask her for the water
Cause shell swallow you down
And shes ten miles of peace
And the hardest of nights
And her belfrys got arch
But her rooftops all right
But down here in the sewer
Im smelling a rat
Dont ask her for the whiskey
Cause her waters all that
And what horses we rode
Through what somber fields
With our lovers at war
And the dust on their heels
And the infidels screamed its all but a lie

Dunno

oh my sweet valentine, i guess i knew you well.
Left my old better half to be all by myself.
Though i don't have long i know, i'll just let my lovin' show
Cause there aint nothin like a petal in a rainstorm
No there aint nothin like a petal in a rainstorm
No there aint nothin like a petal in a rainstorm
Love can't keep you warm my dear
And we're never far from home. that place where we all go.
And i can't wait to get there sometimes. sometimesit's such fun to be alive.
Oh my sweet serenade, i guess we tore it up
Nighttime sang our song until we gave it up
Though i don't have long i know, i'll just let my lovin' show
Cause there aint nothin like a petal in a rainstorm
No there aint nothin like a petal in a rainstorm
No there aint nothin like a petal in a rainstorm
Love can't keep you warm my dear
And we're never far from home. that place where we all go.
And i can't wait to get there sometimes. sometimesit's such fun to be alive.
