Up from the bottom

Up from the Bottom
I'm gonna break out
and every city where I go I'm gonna read less paranoid news
I'll get some take-out
and veg between the speakers and forget about the things I have to lose.
Mmmm
Growing Up from the bottom
Up from the bottom up from the bottom up from the bottom
I'm gonna leave it lying low beneath the ground and buried deep in the blur of memory
No longer breath it or have it my chest or have it in my step, unknowingly
Growing UP from the bottom
UP from the bottom up from the bottom the bottom the bottom....
I'm gonna make it, I think I see horizon but there's so many miles left to go,
I guess I'll take it. I've climbed as high as I can go, then (I'll) wake up from the top looking below
Looking below. Looking below. Looking below. Looking below. Looking.....
Growing UP from the bottom.....

Rude Reaction
04:55
|
|||
I’m stuck hearing you crying on the telephone
Old birthday cards and letters won't leave me alone
Over stimulated at a frenetic pace
But still there's some of the past that just won't erase
chorus
Everywhere that I go alone, I keep a piece of you, even though I don't want to
Unending conversation the cycle never ends
It's a typical attraction, another rude reaction
Steps retraced and overusing lines
Each piece of the puzzle cut and sliced so fine
You might think I’m sentimental but it's really a show
So strap yourself in, we're ready to go
chorus
And I see you breathing, standing there
And you catch a part of me sittin' unaware
And I go home and I find out for sure there's nothing left to do and nothing left
To say to you anymore
Don't believe in everything you read in black and white
'Cause the truth is far stranger than any lie
Yeah well one thing is for certain, don't forget to mark it down in your head
'Cause you better believe every second you live, I will infect you the same way
until I’m dead
chorus

You Said to Me
04:10

You Said to Me
You said to me you'd never be afraid,
You said you'd steal away another day,
but all these foolish compromises whirling out and back again
these wayward circumstances...(__)
And we can face our old mistakes
and freely shed our fears away
And all my foolish compromises breaking forth and back again
these wayward circumstances out of sync with tidal sands
Foolish compromises made with tremor-weakened hands
These painful circumstances, yelling through the fog and unable to listen. Banging through the halls...
And we have never been the same,
With dreams and hopes now rearranged,
And mooted compromises made alright with passing days,
blatant circumstances counterpoint to lunar phase
These foolish compromises made with our best poker face,
inevitable circumstances, yelling through the fog and unable to listen, yelling through the fog and unable to listen....

Emergency light
03:45
|
|||
Radio decibels grow with gasoline vibrations
Life's a bore and I want more, take the floor please come and amuse me
Fancy ride, kiss goodbye and sentiment of feeling safe
It's in my bones and thick in my blood, I’m stuck in the mud, please get out and push me
chorus
Emergency light situation, wide sweeping turns, fish-tailing out into the void
Every hazard awaits every mile of the road, but my wheels keep turning, keep on turning
Navigate, calculate, don't scream 'til we cross the line
Push and pull and drag and roll my hands are full please get out and watch me
Accelerate, crash the gates with no speed limitations
So get out of the way, clear out of the way, get out of the road or get in and join me
Every turn holds a new surprise so keep finding a way to help keep alive
No time left for regret
Right now it's up to you, so take the wheel that's in front of you
You ain't seen nothin' yet
Through the rail and down the hill and tumbling, I hope the camera's rollin'
Flip and crash and memories flash, but step on the gas 'cause we're still moving
Radio, glass shards below, not far to go, but it's no bother
Rred line flight and I want more, so don't be a bore, shift the gears and amuse me
chorus

Without a Trace
04:40
|
|||
Life is full of apologies, from our foreheads to my knees. Mmmmmm
Was anyone expecting this or was there something obvious I missed? Mmmmmm
Nothing more can be gained for reason without love is lame. Mmmmmm
Learning things I never knew can't help me remember to forget you.
Chorus:
Where have you gone? You left without a trace. I've searched so long. I guess I'll be missing you between these broken dreams, and there's nothing left it seems, and I can't be worried by this hanging noose.
I gave you things I didn't know I had because I never had them before.
Gave up being patient but not there yet, but this is the only lonely road I know to tread.
Life is a crazy state of mind, faith without any rules is blind.
In the papers and on the news and billions of facts without any clues.
Chorus
I can't find the words anymore. Why do we have to even use them at all. And always bleeding energies has sometimes got the better of me.
Where have you gone? You left without a trace. I leave, "so long!". I guess I'll be needing you between these broken dreams. And there's nothing left it seems. And I can't be worried by this recollection. Mmmmm... ; )

All in a Day's Charade
07:44
|
|||
Each day I find a new stone to lean on
A new strength in my legs to walk these lines
Can't succumb to resignation, or temporary frustration
Christ, life's humour has a sense of time
Pretending all these eyes don't see through you
Counterfeit moments, no moral to the story and it's all in a day's charade
Colors now so faded, a faith that's too belated and it's all in a day's charade
Campfire singing the latest folly
Just to bide my nights to wait for light
Ruthless imagination and binding arbitration
Can't get much worse than this when the truth is living a lie
These days freedom is hard to find
Everybody wants you and your sentimental half-truths and it's all in a day's charade
The truth is overrated, we want to be persuaded and it's all in a day's charade
A steady stream of misfires and derailments
Swearing by an absent alibi
Desensitized to constant accusation
The pointlessness is in the asking why
Was it worth it? should we play another round?
Someday I may want to find the truth in this decay but it's all in a day's charade
These facts are compensated by the fiction we've created, and it's all in day's charade
Hey, incessant words now hold no fascination
This ever escalating and laughable fiasco, my strength's derived from deeds inside
Courageous human steps
Even now I find compassion waking up in me
All these memories I wade through I testify these days I live without the old charade
I’ve got a mind to say goodbye to yesterday's unfettered lies, no need for a new charade
A brilliant new mosaic old habits so archaic behind these masks we made

Any Other Way
03:03

Street-side show, I'll walk for you
stare me down, I dare you to
You know the boys are coming after me
I got no home, but c'est la vie
But that's alright
that's ok
wouldn't have it any other way
Hang my bones out to dry
got no time to say goodbye
Bleed me 'til there's nothing left
amputate with no regrets
That's alright
that's ok
wouldn't have it any other way
wouldn't have it any other way
wouldn't have it any other way
This ain't no bed-time story
about a boy in New Orleans
And everything is funnier
than it every really seems
That's alright
that's ok
wouldn't have it any other way
That's alright
that's ok
wouldn't have it any other way
wouldn't have it any other way
wouldn't have it any other way

No Patience
05:10
|
|||
Fading shadows on these once hungry open eyes.....oh no
Never looking quite the same through the mirror
Looking for some scenery I've never seen before
You never gave 30 seconds to questions about why
How did this bleak uncuriosity ever come to be
Catch myself wondering why there aint any wonder
Ch
And I don't have any patience for you no more
And I don't have any patience for you no more
Tapping on the walls, knocking doors in metronomal time, oh no
You got nothing but the best of me and I got whatever's left,
picking up the pieces spread with such a radius
Ch
Lost in a ticking-trap wilderness, nobody around, oh no...
Finding ways to complicate simplicity, it's a little too easy sometimes
You wake up and find yourself shaking up with fever, counting holes in the ceiling
and you better believe that you better believe that I
Don't have any patience, for you no more
And I don't have any patience, for you no more.....no more.

Junglewalk
03:34
|
|||
There's proverbs on the pavement slowly written in colored chalk
But there too obscure to matter to your deliberate walk
There's a peace sign up ahead and dry rotting vinyl ground
There's flashing lights in the corner and a stacatto chirping sound
Curiosity has got the best of me
This urban junglewalk has caught my lazy eye
It's enough to get me out of bed,
enough to fill my empty head
No need to pass this time without a new heart to cry on today
Everybody's got a story, to help occupy these hours
Elaborating on the mundane is unavoidable now
This quivering impatience as the meter ticks away
This groove is unrelenting and I want to make it play
It's enough to get me out of bed,
enough to fill my empty
No need to pass this time without a shoulder to cry on
She's a new brand of cameleon in a jungle of naiveté
parading in the rush hour of exclusive company
She's a tall drink of peyote, that portabello charm
and a touch of cosmopolitan that comes from a prarie farm
Curiosity has got the best of she
This urban junglewalk has caught her lazy eye
It's enough to get her out of bed,
enough to fill her empty head
No need to pass this time without a new heart to cry on
There's proverbs on the pavement slowly written in colored chalk
But there too obscure to matter to the tempo of your walk deliberate walk
She's not where she's supposed to be but she likes it anyway,
This new infatuation will suffice for today,
It's enough to fill my empty head,
enough to get me out of bed
No need to pass this time without a new heart to cry on today.

So much better
02:52
|
|||
Change all you wanna change it wont make no matter to me, no a little
I already know, everything I got to know
I'm not so blind that I can't see the map that's laid in front of me
Ch
So much better than it used to be, when the rain was unforgiving
So much better than it had to be, but the sky is clearer, sky is clearer now
Slave to eternal re-inventing,
never knew what it's like not to lose your skin
The pace is forever changing, lives all re-arranging
It's the only thing predictable, no entity is ever still
Ch
Lies and tragic hearsay
are gonna steal your time and rip away the calm
I got to know, where the hell do you want to go
with all this bad indecency, unrelenting insecurity?
Ch

11. |

A lonely hush has found it's way unapologizing on the top of our plates
I can barely stand to think, barely comprehend the size of this weight
Unremembered happiness
Or at the very least a similar likeness
The picture fades, the season's fall
The counter-weight has me hooked to the wall
Maybe it's the truth, maybe it's a lie
I’m sick of all these circles with these pieces left behind
But it will not erase, and it cannot unwind
Longing for these futures I’m erasing out of time
chorus
Where did it go from under my nose? I haven't seen a trace of it around
Where is my view and what did I do to get so completely turned around?
And so it seems that as of late nothing seems in tune to the steps that I take
It's indescribable but perfectly clear
Infinitely far and impossibly near
I wish it were more kind
I wish I didn't care
I’m sick of all these messages conflicting in the air
But it will not erase and it cannot unwind
Longing for these futures I’m erasing out of time
I might be lazy, I might pretend
like I really know how it's all gonna end
So in this solemn hemisphere, silent admonitions are all you can hear
Maybe it's the truth, maybe it's a lie
I’m sick of all these circles with these pieces left inside
A paralyzing fall waiting to rewind
Only hoping to escape to any other side....
chorus
