Too many emails sitting in drafts My lifestyle warrants a laugh Another meal in a parking lot Words are spoken without thought Your dress is moving with the wind Darling, be my Marilyn Too Catholic to live in sin, too Irish to live in happiness Invite me in, but not to sit Call me late, but not for a visit I'm drunk and you're sober, and you're drunk and I'm sober Don't call me with a: "Can I come over?" Your dress is moving with the wind Darling, be my Marilyn Too Catholic to live in sin, too Irish to live in happiness My book waits on a shelf, but I can't read when you're awake Lie with me, with my back to you I'll lie with you, with your back to me Your dress is moving with the wind Darling, be my Marilyn I'll lie with you, with your back to me... Lie with me with my back to you

Holy animal 04:25
God, I'm horrible But I can lie in this cell all day Inside out, backwards, and the car can't go faster I've placed my hopes, in the trust of disaster For better or for worse This is the voice of the herald beheaded: "Soon you'll be home, you'll be in my arms." I meant no harm, I mint nothing but harm So can you hear that message? Can you take a message? God, you can't be real, so I'll carry this weight On the shoulders of my head You're a merry-go-round And that red circle isn't ringing It's screaming! 'Til death does its part And the car won't go faster, sweeping by And my life can't grow faster, just weeding by Eat your fear, with its bitter sweetness Taste that pure, unforgiving meanness Single purposed solutions for wounded moral confusion Content smile and a sneaking glance of hushed purpose I'll lie in this cell all day Trapped, shameful animals Simple wants, unfulfilled

Not a broken bone in my body, except for the one... Yeah, just that one.

Six month march to my own exile Now I'm all alone, save for this city Golden gates speak while you stay silent Brick walkways don't ask for my pity Desert sands? No, no not here I'd really prefer them to all this green And I know that you'd agree I lose myself in the view from my window Forget my room is full of piss filled bottles The earth is flat, and I won't step out For fear of falling off Leave the blinds wide open So the morning sun can peer right in Six month march to my own exile Now I'm all alone, save for this city Golden gates speak while you stay silent Brick walkways don't ask for my pity But this city has been without hot water For three whole weeks They say that when it rains it pours Well another cold shower, is just what I need I lose myself in the view from my bed Forget my room is filled with piss filled bottles The earth is flat, and I won't step out For fear of falling off Leave the blinds wide open So the morning sun can sear right in Let's just be honest and sit in silence Because what doesn't need to be said Doesn't need to be said
