The Moon 01:32
Here I am in the room on the floor with the moon I put my ear to her heart, listen close and then she starts: "There's nothing more for you John you must believe it's all gone you can't do what you want unless you haven't woken up." I tell her, "yea, i'm still asleep, I'm in the middle of a dream never mind enough of this, I'll wake up and call it Spit." I want to put a knife inside all the dreams in my eyes but one last look at the moon then she says, "I love you."

Numb Skull 03:24
took a walk feeling better these freaks can't stand the weather when they're standing up atop a hill and their heads ingest another pill take two twice a day get used to skin decay and wear your smile like a crown feel the shame beating down and wake up and stay up write me bad checks give me one sec champagne halo flying over heads will roll down without a sound hold me down get my back leave before pitch black and go away
3.
Innocent 03:21
you had to run away i had a feeling you lacked the strength to stay cut the rope in half jump in the boat paddle out in to the never known you saw militaries around and the shadows of their guns that can't wait to kill innocent people tell me bout the time you escaped once you had a murder to your name you weren't cut out for getaways but that's all that's left for you these days harkenin back to the time we had turned our backs and we whispered our plans in the ear of the world

Air Hockey 03:15
wouldn't you know that i've been training for the day that we start playin and float above the ice like the lights clear away my blinding hair lift my legs above the air hold my hands and make this fucker fly so much blood upon the ice punched the ref then punched him twice clocked em right between the eyes now i'm banned for life
5.
i can kneel down beside of a creek and lift up the moon i can kneel down beside a deathbed by and by maybe i can tell you what it feels like i might as well get use to feeling the blues dreaming was like the talcum dust covering the casket i grew flowers in my dream bullets richochet and if i wait forever one might hit me by chance
6.
i am rubber you are glue i am copper and so are you i feel you man let's sit down take my hand let's burn the town, yeah why don't you set down your hands entwine them in your lap and then i'll see if you deserve handcuffs you're doing better than the rest with this thing we call a test and if you ever want to leave, you'll get your chance
7.
I believe in everything cause there's nothing to believe he looks at the moon and sees a horse's wing and auntie wants her cig back and her face upon a postage stamp to be mailed along to a distant land a cozy bed of grass and dirt a hideaway beneath the earth tell me how it feels to have a sense of worth and ask me how i'm doing and have i found what suits me without losing it completely show me how to count to ten and then believe me that i can so you dare me to hold my breath and wait till i reach ten i only had the nerve to lie but i can't count that high so know it's not pretend when i pretend to die if you wanna know why i couldn't go ask another man who understands everything is new i'm on mah knees i wanna learn about the words and bees measure my heart in bpm cash it at the bank and make it bend if you wanna care i'll be there i guess you don't and i'm dead broke for life I'm dead for life

Refill Me 02:14
caught with a sharpie in the bathroom stall no one was looking but myself i wrote your name and your bookmarked dates then i went back to fix the mistake let's commemorate the missing dogs let's hope they're safe and nothing's wrong i can no longer take your stupid face what you make is what i waste i can't be the one to give you a second chance but what i'll do is give you my helping hands refill me, pick me up at the pharmacy break the seal, smear me on your body
9.
well i'm lookin for the man with bounty of his head i hope we can still be friends even when he's dead the heart don't see what the eyes can't put together he's gone into town to see the minister in leather
10.
please don't run away, the police have many guns this town's in need of more than a couple thugs and I'm laughing softly wishing I could go my lungs are coughing hoping that you know and I know no things that you haven't wept away from the foyer that should be swept crows are barking on the wire emanate the light rode a hearse without a tire through the night it's gonna hurt when you freeze alone inside the dessert emotionally detached from your shirt wasting away on a hill of dirt i have two lives one's asleep, one's inside what i love, is what's above/below
