You tried you all 13 channels, but they burned me out again
'cause it's over whenever they say
I quit sending postcards 'cause no one know what to revere,
and the mailman can't come in to explai...
I put on my overcoat and walked into winter - my teeth chattered rhythms
And they were grouped in twos or threes, like a morse code message was sent from me to me. cars on
slippery slopes, they're...
When I was young, lying in the grass
I felt so safe in a warming bath
Of sunlight
Of sunlight
Fast open sky could do no harm
Like an embrace of a mothers arms
In sunlight [4x]
With every...
On Two bicycles
On a hillside desolate
Could nature make a man of me yet ?
Under this charming calm
This charming man
Why ponder life's complexies
When the leather runs smooth
On the p...
you'll discover that casual friends kept
notes in their pockets to remember your
name. and all thses places we went to

Technicolor girls are always on the phone
talking about their homes
and the conversations continue endlessly.
Technicolor boys, transistor radios
blasting their treble tones
and the arg...
And I'm standing up in my practice room
I'm all alone
Speaker's almost blown
And my new Gibson amp
Oh what the hell....
Things are not so different in my vocal master
You are the face that la...
this won't be the last you'll hear from me:
it's just the start. i hope that he keeps
you up for weeks like you did to me. i will
hold a candle up to you to singe your
skin. brace yourself: i'm...
Burn it down till the embers smoke on the ground
And start new when your heart is an empty room
With walls of the deepest blue
Fall fades how it ages when you're away
Spring blooms and you fi...
You see nothing to be adored, when obsession takes it's toll
You can't place you in between the pages of fashion magazines
Paper cuts from turning pages, just like a bad dream
Is it this or that...
No longer easy on the eyes but these wrinkles masterfully disguise
The youthful boy below who turned your way and saw
Something he was not looking for both a beginning and an end
But now he live...
I descended a dusty gravel ridge
Beneath the Bixby Canyon Bridge
Until I eventually arrived
At the place where your soul had died.
Barefoot in the shallow creek,
I grabbed some stones from u...
sometimes i think this cycle never ends
we slide from top to bottom and we turn and climb again
and it seems by the time that i have figured what it's worth

Whenever I come back,
the air on railroad is making the same sounds.
And the shop fronts on Holly

and we peered through the windows:

I intentionally wrote it out to be an illegible mess
You wanted me to write you letters, but i'd rather lose your address
And forget that we'd ever met and what did or did not occur.
Sitting in ...
You were the mother, of three girls so sweet
That storm through your turnstile, and climbed to the street
But after conception, your body lay cold
Withered through Autumn then you found yourself...
Leaving the central state from shallow ground
Home in the valley but the rent's paid south
You said the urn was half full when I said it was half empty
With what was left of our fair city

If I could open my arms
And span the length of the isle of Manhattan,
I'd bring it to where you are
Making a lake of the East River and Hudson
And if I could open my mouth
Wide enough for a ma...
I think I'm drunk enough to drive you home now
I'll keep my mouth kept shut from under lock and key
That's rusted firm, no lie
'Cause all these conversations wind on and on....

Cutthroat; cut out candid glimpses and
Wind me up; I'm ready
Can't escape this line of best fit
Can't escape this...
