Harmonic

Well I'll see you around
I don't want to stay and drown
the drama got too thick
makes me sick
and I don't wanta talk about it
I already thought about it
stripped down of all my pride
I shed the tears then dried these eyes
well it was fun at the start
but maybe we're worlds apart
facing different ways
different planes
and I don't wanta drag it out and
I just got to get on out and
leave it all behind
it's time so don't deny it
I wanta know...does it show on my face
I'm sick of this place
I wanta move on, 'cause the feeling is gone
I wanta see...is it me out the door
I told you before
I wanta have fun, and it's just begun
I've seen the light
tried to talk about it
if you were ever down for me
just stop...you'd see
you know I'm right
and it showed in your eyes
what we shared had run empty
so let...it be
I wanta know...does it show on my face
I'm sick of this place
I wanta move on...now there's one of us gone
I wanta see...is it me out the door
I said it before
I wanta have fun, and it's just begun

Teenage Suicide

time's rollin' forward
I'm gettin' bored
layin' on my back
I'm losin' track
shifting patterns
and nothing matters
'cause there's no one here
and I've lost my fear
well I've got no place left to hide
I'm running out of time
moving slowly
the walls are closing
in on me
I can not see
appearing fine, well
that's all a lie
'cause I am not all right
extinct inside
I'm runnin' out of time
my mother says I'm fine
a teenage suicide
no place to hide
well I've got no place left to hide
no place to hide
I'm runnin' out of time
no place to hide
yeah, I've got no place left to hide
no place to hide
a teenage suicide
I'm runnin' out of time
my mother says I'm fine
a teenage suicide

Sorry

afraid it comes to this
I really must admit
your tits, your eyes, your lips
are staring at me
I'm drooling at the chin
I need to be within, her skin, I want to sin
she stops me and she says
slow down boy, I'm not easy
don't want to be a sleazy whore
so I showed her to the door
overabundancy, and I'm not sorry
and girl, you look so good
I really think we should, your hood, with me, I would
so let's get started
I know I can't resist
I reach over for a kiss, I miss, she ducks, I wish
she gets up and says
slow down boy, I'm not easy
don't want to be a sleazy whore
so I showed her to the door
overabundancy, and I'm not sorry
then there she was in front of me
and it was very plain to see
she had this gleaming in her eye
told me that she's down for the crime
took me and threw me on the floor
as she screamed and begged for more
she said
I'm not sorry
No, I'm not sorry

California Sky

imagine, the dreams we've had
since we were children are real
it's magic
to see their minds filled with the music we feel
well here's your message from above
and if you wanta make push come to shove, all right
this ain't no lullaby
we're right at home in the California Sky
illusions are taking part of the confusion in me
tomorrow, there'll be no heroes left to follow
you'll see
bright lights they flash across the sky
may be the reason why we're all insane
and I don't wanna get away
we're right at home in the California Sky
live from the mansion on the hill
reminds you of the way we used to feel, right
Orion's aligned now
turn back the time
the California Sky

Cailin

well it seemed like yesterday
when the world was looking dark
it felt so cold and grey
and why the hell am I even here
what's the purpose, all I feel is guilt and hate and fear
'till that day you came along
my heart was empty
like the soul was missing from a song
and I thought I'd loved a few
no one ever made me feel
the way that you do
hey little girl
look what you do
oh, I love you
hey little girl, I love you
well I know I'm not always right
and girl it breaks my heart
when I have to see cry
so many things I wanna say
now I know that you're the reason
that I'm here today
whenever you're here
just stay near
we'll be all right, yeah all right
hey little girl
look what you do
oh, I love you
hey little girl
look what you do, and you do
when all my love starts running thin
I got you my own Cailin
hey little girl, I love you I'll be all right
but I need you close
please stay tonight
as long as you're here
just stay near we'll be all right, yeah all right

Lonesome

well I'm here, but I don't wanta stay
'cause you're not around
and I'm feeling lonely
same old episode for me, headed for catastrophy
and I can see that it's
association with the past
so think about it
it's like a tie that did not last
don't move so fast
and don't run
'cause you might find out, find out I'm the one
and I still feel lonesome
nothing's changed, it just gets rearranged when
you come around, so now what's your story
you were never there for me
so I'm going out to see
'cause I can see that it's
association with the past
so think about it
it's like a tie that did not last
don't move so fast
and don't run
'cause you might find out, find out I'm the one
and I still feel lonesome
now you're here, but I don't wanta stay
'cause you weren't around, now you say you're sorry
and nothing's changed, it's just been rearranged
so stay down, just stay down
association with the past
so think about it
it's like a tie that did not last
don't move so fast
and don't run
'cause you might find out, find out I'm the one
and I still feel lonesome

Coffin Text

there was a time when men would prosper
they saw a sign that would offer them the key
immortality
the desert sand held a place of recourse
their motivation driven by a higher source
a higher source
they let them know there's something more
the writings on the wall
tell us the story of it all
it makes no sense
show me the key
the coffin text
the disbelievers came to conquer
the secrets lost in a buried desert tomb
they sealed the truth
as evolution ate the pharoah
silenced the voice that cured all our sorrow
oh, our sorrow
silenced the voice that let us know
fighting, learning, saving, burning
never knowing what is coming next
lying, stealing, never healing
safe to say we've all been hexed
it's in the coffin text

Holiday

sometimes life can knock you down
just gotta pick your ass up off the ground
probably don't matter anyway
cause in the end it's gonna be ok
because life's a holiday
don't wanna go and work harder
just to keep my head above water
can't hear what teacher's trying to say
'cause it makes no sense now anyway
and tomorrow's another day
and I just wanna play
'cause I know that we will be ok
'cause life's a holiday
I'm sorry
for my, my blasphemy
it's just my way
and I'll stay
because life's a holiday

and make it go away

and come with me tonight
won't you come to the other side

so I can save your soul
follow me down
to the underground

Close Your Eyes

There once was a kid who lived just down the street
a quarter block from me
he shaved off his hair, put boots on his feet
and said this was his country
the day came around and the shit all went down
and too late to see the light
well he was caught up and shot up in a fight
won't you close your eyes
there once was a kid from South Central L.A.
who threw up his set all day
all dressed in blue nothing to do
said "hey man, what set you claim"
the blood pulled a nine
and threw up his sign, then let the trigger slide
and he was, caught up and shot up in a fight
life can get cut short so
try to stay in line
you wanna be a man
but this shit happens all the time
so let's just all hang out
don't give a fuck about what they say
cause they're all lame
and we're all still the same
won't you close your eyes

back

Before I Go

life hurts so bad
don't want you sad
just look back to
good times we had
I'd give my soul for you I know
want to hold you before I go
before I go
I need you to know
I'm still alive in you
it's my time to go
don't stay up late
I'm not afraid
and I don't want your heart to break
I know I've seen what's been unseen
live fast, die young
it's part of me
(it's my time now)
before I go
(it's my time now)
my soul is on it's way
(it's my time now)
I need you to know
before I go
