People Crowd

Why run away when you could stay so close
I always shiver when I see your ghost
Ohhhhh
I blow away like smoke
I'm way too gone to call you back right now
I always hide when I see you in town
Ohhhhh
I get lost in the people crowd
Kiss my face and baby push me around
Oh well I know that you hate me now
Ooh ooh ooh ooh etc.
I get lost in the people crowd
Can't see up when you hold me down
I get lost in the people crowd
Can't see up when you hold me down
When will the porch come tumbling down?
I get lost in the lazy sounds
I wake up as body hits the ground
Oh, well push me around
I wish I could win everyday
I wish you wouldn't get in my way
I wish I could taste the ocean spray
I wish I knew how to pray
Pick me up and throw me away
Tell me what you have to say
Ooh ooh ooh ooh etc.
I get lost in the people crowd
Can't see up when you hold me down
I get lost in the people crowd
Can't see up when you hold me down
Ooh ooh ooh ooh etc.
I get lost in the people crowd
Can't see up when you hold me down
I get lost in the people crowd
Can't see up when you hold me down

Sunny, always make me feel like I'm a clown
Sunny, standing in the rain your makeup runs down
You're always searching for some peace of mind
Sunny, know I think about you most all the time
Honey, there ain’t nothing like the month of June
I know and you know that it ends so soon
You never thank me when I keep you warm
I’m coming back and now I’m losing my form
You can see me from miles away
Bleeding rainbow colors walking in the rain
Cover myself up so you don’t see my shame
You can see me from miles away
Honey, there ain’t nothing like the month of May
You know and I know, I don't believe what you say
You never thank me when I keep you warm
I’m coming back and now I’m losing my form
You can see me from miles away
Bleeding rainbow colors walking in the rain
Cover myself up so you won't see my shame
You can see me from miles away
You can see me from miles away
Bleeding rainbow colors walking in the rain
Cover myself up so you don't see my shame
You can see me from miles away
You can see me from miles away
Bleeding rainbow colors walking in the rain
Cover myself up so you don't see my shame
You can see me from miles away

Ashes

You sun yourself, laying in bed
Sunlight in the orchard runs through my head
I'm barely working for my daily bread
I'd rather carve my own gravestone
Than watch you going red in the face
Rather fade away at my own pace
I'm not sure I got what it takes
To go to sleep at night and not wanna get faded away
I'm awake when the sun starts to blaze
I see the lines on your face
Please don't make me pack my suitcase
Rather grow old at my own pace
I'm not sure I have what it takes
Know I'm not another mistake
I think I fell too far back in my place
I'm not sure I've got what it takes
Oh I know I'm fading too fast
Praying I don't run out of gas
All my money turns into ashes
Only make it worse like scratching a rash
Well please don't make me pack my suitcase
Rather grow old at my own pace

Scary Parents

I'm salty like a pretzel
My mouth's always dry when I'm with you
Everybody's feeling special
so Why should I bother with you
I want your sister to like me
But your parents are so scary
I want you to write to me
But I don't want you to scare me
Do you wanna see the flowers?
I heard they're in bloom
Can I sleep on your mattress?
When the skies aren't so blue
I want your sister to like me
But your parents are so scary
I want you to write to me
But I don't want you to scare me

I Am a Happy Man

Wish I knew what it was like
Wish I knew if I was right in the end
Wish you followed me at night
And be my friend
Be my friend
I could try with all my might
To go softly into that dark night
I could try with all my might
To be your friend
Be your friend

Cowboy Killer Red

Knowing it's gone
I need somebody to tell me when I'm wrong
I want you to sing about me in your songs
That won't fix a thing
Had a dream that I was king
I had a dream that I was dying
That won't fix a thing
It won't fix a thing
I pretend without realizing
Leave me in the city oh leave me alone
Cut my hair and unplug my phone
Crash my car by the side of the road
That won't fix a thing
Had a dream that I was king
I had a dream that I was dying
That won't fix a thing
It won't fix a thing
Talk too much without realizing
You can tell that I'm trying
I woke up on the wrong side of bed
(You can tell that I'm trying)
And the rain feels nice when it drips onto my head
(You can tell that I'm trying)
I'm out of cigarettes cowboy killer red
(You can tell that I'm trying)
Woke up on the wrong side of the bed
(You can tell that I'm trying)
You can tell that I'm trying
You can tell that I'm trying
You can tell that I'm trying
You can tell that I'm trying
Had a dream that I was king
I had a dream that I was dying
That won't fix a thing
It won't fix a thing
I pretend without realizing
You can tell that I'm trying
You can tell that I'm trying
You can tell that I'm trying
Just a little too hard, little too hard
Cus I'm trying just a little too hard
You can tell that I'm trying
You can tell that I'm trying
Had a dream that I was dying
Had a dream that I was king
I had a dream that I was dying

Rose Dream

Sea foam cleansing my toes
I had a dream that we were roses
Looked on the floor and it's covered in clothes
Oooooooooooooh
Washing my face in the basin of love
Floating just so I can stay above
Lying on my back in the slush and the mud
There once was
Under her eyes
Cold waves across my body
String lights cover the greenery
Emerging my hand in the candle wax
So sad but all this beautiful scenery
Bury me in the old churchyard
Beside my oldest brother
My coffin shall be black
Six angels at my back
Two to sing and two to pray
And two to carry my soul away
Oooooh
And when we are married
How happy we will be
Wild rose blossoms on that little green place
