To Whom It May Disturb

To whom It may disturb it read
Have some complaints to make all in red ink
Can't worry about me
Can't worry about something with no brakes
The bend is coming fast
Blurry smiling
But why can't we just aim for each other
and close our eyes
Have a lot of space to fill
Have a lot time to kill
There's always stealing
Can't wait to get caught
Can't wait to fight them off
Bury the feeling when it's breathing
To hear it move
But why can't we just aim for each other
and close our eyes
I know It's hard
Just can't stand this moving on part
I wait for the ceiling
Tell me now to get out of bed
I know it's hard
Just can't stand this moving on part
But why can't we just aim for each other
And close our eyes
It's hard not to care

I feel like you really want to reign
Why do you wait
What’s the thunder for
Less or more you have me looking out the window
I like the gray
The mood you set is great
And I appreciate everything you say
Shakes off everything that’s loose and weak
Against the way everything should be
Under and safe you always want to take
Some risky needless stupid way to get yourself off
I feel the way you go against the grain
And I appreciate all the mess you made
It shakes off everything that’s loose and weak
Shakes off everything that’s loose in me

I was numb when I invited
That fool who likes that concrete mattress Cuts and bruises in the morning
Recollection down
Try to find that better person
Who always helped that selfish person
There’s no answer What did I do
I bet I fucked things up again
You always lose your list
Your master plan have weathered stains
I don’t think that you should pray for me
cause it can never find me
It’s never enough
That devil always makes good points
Drowning out my angels voice
Seems like such a coward
Chances are I’ll fuck things up again
Mom did raise a fool who tells the truth Believes his lies
I hope you never have to prey on me
Cause I’m an easy meal
I just know myself
I’m charging until it takes me down

Red Flag Stash

Those red flags of yours always get in the way
When the air is calm I’ll ask you to marry me,
But it’s black and white looks like a hurricane is coming this way
It’s coming this way
Thankfully I save you from me
But now I’m whipping around
like one of your flags
Fingers are tightly tied
I just hope that this post is in deep
At least hopes hanging around
But you know you can’t go on like this
Pretending like everything is in its place
Throw it around
Then just putting back
You can’t keep on just coming around
Cause your not even there

Shell Of A Man

When all you wanted was me then
All I can give was a shell of a man
A hollow whisper I love you
That never reached it died right there
It never fails to fail for me
I shape a queen from sand in dreams
She blinks and says hurry finish me
And when I kiss her she falls apart
right in my hands
Then I attack what I control
I never saw it coming
Until everything else was gone
Logic likes to break your heart
I never wanted all this art
But then I look and there I am
A man who’s just a shell of man

I’m Mediocre man
Almost made that jump
across those buildings
Hanging on there and way to proud to yell for help
Thank you anyway
Almost saved the day
And once again they got away
But this is going to be the day
No longer going to sit around and let them win
I’m gonna make it work here if it kills me and breaks my heart
I’m going to make it work here in New York City
So beware villains
Mediocre Man is mad
Better watch your back
No longer will they get away from me
Stand down villain
Mediocre man is here
Better start to run
But I’m going to get you this time
No longer will they get away
And I won’t let you down

She's got enough to worry about now
She's always showing us drunks a little show
Showing us the downward slope
The bottom has always been her home
That's why she never wants to see you go
That's why I never want to see her again
Because she makes she sick
and she makes me think

Happiest Man From Mars
03:25

The world seems so flat today
Must be those clouds that don’t want to break
And let the sun shine on your face
So I made a vow to laugh out loud
And pencil in the sun
I made vow to laugh out loud
And keep from looking down
Suspended somehow building down
Not why but when will I hit the ground
So I can begin building out
It’s far away but close to me
Give me a chance again
And as I approach I need you to know
that I’m not the same
And I see your face
And I’m reaching as far as I can
I’m reaching my arms as far as I can
So I made a vow to laugh out loud
And hold you for a day
So I made a vow to love you now
And keep from looking down
You made me the happiest man from mars

I’m addicted to psychics
Because they always say Positive things
So I’m just here waiting
Foolish web in a safe
Don’t want to be a fool anymore
Don’t want to hear you say anymore
It’s so hard to love you
And I don’t believe
that you know what you want
So I just can’t do this
Don’t want to be your fool anymore
She held my hand and turned them over
She said what a bright road I see for you
So I’m just here waiting a patient sucker
Working and wathcing the clock swallow hours And hours of hours
Of our chances
No one can reach in and save me from what’s safe

Start Again

I don’t know how to tell you this
I guess I’ll just come out with it
I fell in love with somebody else
And I’m not coming home again
You can break all my things
You burn our memories
The ones I haven’t organized yet
Guess I’ll just have to start again
You have to admit we tried hundred times
And it’s taken us right back to this
Take away all the pain we had
And it's taken us right back to this
It’s taken us right back to this
I’ll just keep fooling myself
Guess I’ll have to start again
