Black Gown Lyrics
2 ContributorsBlack Gown LyricsI wanna lie down and listen
I wanna lie down and listen
I gotta lie down and isn't that your black gown
So you cry now and you're pacing
Feel your town might need erasing
You gotta lie down and isn't that your black gown
Is it really true
He has passed away
Neither I or you can really say
We were fast asleep
Just the other day
I'd been dreaming about the bales of house high hay
We went and climbed that day
If it ain't fixed, don't break it
When the pain pricks you can take
Kill a werewolf wooden you stake it
Bring the sky down while we're waiting
Put a line out or cut bacon
Drop a dime now for satan
Where's your black gown?
If you find our you're mistaken
Give exactly what you're taking
When it's time to throw the rake in
I wanna lie down and listen
I wanna lie down and listen
I gotta lie down and isn't that your black gown
Become the Enemy Lyrics
2 ContributorsBecome the Enemy LyricsIt's my fault
I never learned a trade
So I just scrape all day
It's not my fault
Yeah, when there's never enough
So I just toil away
And oh, what you say to me
It's not how love's supposed to be
And oh, what you do to me
When you become the enemy
It's not your fault
Yeah, things didn't turn out the way you dreamed at school
And now you're raising two
But it's your fault
When you raise a pointed finger at the one who loves you
And oh, what you say to me
It's not how love's supposed to be
And oh, what you do to me
When you become the enemy
Pass the blame and our life away
Pass the blame, watch us fall away
Pass the blame and our life away
Pass the blame, watch us fall away
It's not our fault
Yeah things never turn out the way we plan
Something we can never understand
And it's both our faults
When we pass the blame instead of trying to change
Babe, we just need to rearrange
And oh, what you say to me
It's not how love's supposed to be
And oh, what you do to me
When you become the enemy
Pass the blame in our lives away
Pass the blame, watch us fall away
Pass the blame in our life away
Pass the blame, watch us fall away
Poughkeepsie Lyrics
2 ContributorsPoughkeepsie LyricsGoes on in Spanish Harlem
Goes on in Poughkeepsie
People slip away
Hit me in the arm
Just please do it swiftly
We ain't got all day, yeah
One more coat of arms
Every business weekly
What's Amanda say?
It's not that I'm so strong
I never knew what hit me
Since you came to stay, yeah
Speard and flayed
Burnt and bleeding, I'll catch up some day
'Til tomorrow's bruises go away
And the grass is turning into hay
I'll be glad to be your extra blade
Goes on in Spanish Harlem
Goes on in Poughkeepsie
Lost my grip today
Here to stay
Least until it's time to go away
Walking masterpiece of remembered pain
This demon life has got you in it's sway
And I'm proud to be your lump of clay
Rule of Three Lyrics
2 ContributorsRule of Three LyricsThe way it's supposed to go
As if you didn't know
Exactly how to feel
When it looks just like a dolphin show
The way that most folks know
This is how your life will go
I never wonder why
And I always get a decent lie
The way it's supposed to feel
When you're finding out it's real
Turning on a dime
We'll prepared and right in time, right in time
The way it's supposed to be
When you're climbing up a tree
What is that you see?
And don't forget the rule of three, rule of three
Rule of three, rule of three, rule of three, rule of three
Rule of three, rule of three. rule of three. rule of three
No Backbone Lyrics
2 ContributorsNo Backbone LyricsIt's dawned on me again
I can't balance in betweens
It's no longer familiar to me
It's become routine
The bedroom ritual
A simple way to feel
Without running the risk of anything real
Ever being given, ever being shown
Back in the bedroom no backbone
Standards I'd kept, in the back of my mind
Are now just rules to break from time to time
I'm way past worrying about it gettin' a hold on me
I realise I ride on it's back for free
The bedroom ritual
A simple way to feel
Without running the risk of anything real
Ever being given, ever being shown
Back in the bedroom no backbone
Addictively I'll stick to the safety of the script
But I know I'll end up settling for a less than perfect fit
The bedroom ritual
A simple way to feel
Without running the risk of anything real
Ever being given, ever being shown
Back in the bedroom no backbone
Back in the bedroom no backbone
Back in the bedroom no backbone
In Passing Lyrics
3 ContributorsIn Passing LyricsTime goes by so very slow while you are fasting
I don't think I really know if you are asking
Crash the plane and boil the snow then do the last thing
Picture of a piece of wood stuck to the plastic
Declarations spoken low and said in passing
You're the one I used to know I hear you laughing
If I knew that you were coming
I'd have stayed awake
If you knew where you were going
I'd be interested
Miles of fields and it's snowing
On a frozen lake
If I knew that you were coming
I'd have stayed awake
Time to die, You're welcome, You just overstayed it
I simplify the card was dealt before you played it
Your sense of community is kinda dated
Taking care Jerusalem is locked and gated
Making sure we all hate who we always hated
Till your lust for blood is well and truly sated
If I knew that you were coming
I'd have stayed awake
If you knew where you were going
I'd be interested
Miles of fields and it's snowing
On a frozen lake
If I knew that you were coming
I'd have stayed awake
Steve’s Boy Lyrics
3 ContributorsSteve’s Boy LyricsHello it's me
Your son again
I'll let myself in
Back to save your life
Back to ruin your day
I can't make you well
I can't make you love me
But I'm not leaving here without you
Steve's boy won't let you die
Alone in the desert with fear in your eyes
You can't break me
You can't make me go away
Stop trying to push me out
I'll never say when, you never showed me ow
You can't break me
You can't make me go away
Life run it's course
No shame in that
Just let me stay a while
Try to ease your pain
Maye try to let you see me
You won't let me be your son
You won't be my father
But I'm not leaving here without you
Steve's boy won't let you die
Alone in the desert with fear in your eyes
You can't break me
You can't make me go away
Stop trying to push me out
I'll never say when, you never showed me ow
You can't break me
You can't make me go away
I'm not gonna go away
Be back tomorrow with the things you need
You don't have to hate me
We could try to make believe
Hello it's me
I'm back again
I'll let myself in
Today I'll find a way
To try again another day
Let’s Just Laugh (acoustic) Lyrics
2 ContributorsLet’s Just Laugh LyricsI say out with it, you're not drinking
I say out with it, you're not drinking
It's not for me to know what you're thinking
'bout people staying home locking windows
Outside the basement
A texan stranger
With a rope and a straight razor
Is getting impatient for something major
It's in his nature
Two more years to go
Then you're supposed to know
How to get back home
Someplace near Waco
Let's just laugh
We can never do anything about anything, anyway
Whatever will be, I guess we'll see
So let's just laugh
War is sacred as rape and hatred
And we're just aphids in hell's half acre
In the dark and on TV fires
Just a country on rims for tyres
Excuses tired
Someone fetch the piano wire
I hope you're tried and fried before you're finally fired
Two more years to kill
If you want I will
Let's just laugh
We can never do anything about anything, anyway
Whatever will be, I guess we'll see
Let's just laugh
Let's just laugh
We can never do anything about anything, anyway
