"Table For Glasses" (4:20)
Sweep the dirty stairs,
the ones I waited on
This is just for me
I felt it watching her
It happens too fast to make sense of it
To make
it last
Where do you intend to go with your dirty dress?
Lead my skeptic sight to the table and the light
It happened
too fast to make sense of it
To make it last
Not asking of me anything,
Saying nothing about what it means,
Without
anybody telling me how I should feel,
Lead my skeptic sight
"Lucky Denver Mint" (3:49)
This time it's on my
own
Minutes for somewhere else
Somewhere I made a wish with lucky Denver mint
Hurry go on ahead
Good things won't
let you wait
I'll catch up when we get home
At home I'll leave
A dollar under water keeps on dreaming for me
You're
not bigger than this, not better
Why can't you learn
"You New Aesthetic" (2:40)
We're lowering the
standard in a process selective
The formula is too thin
But it takes more than one person
So everyone jump on
I'll
miss you when you're just like them
I remember back then thinking: easy comes but doesn't stay
What comes never stays
But
the politics need means
And business never leaves
You better sing now while you can
Imitate and water down
Until
we crash I'll write it out:
Selection breathes on its own
Make them open the request line and let selection kill the
old
Turn off your radio
"Believe In What You Want" (3:08)
Don't bother
going through your motions
Nothing that makes sense ever works out
Don't kid yourself, you know they want money
Nothing
can be good on its own merit
Put your trust in simple acts
Make the flyers get them up all over town
Don't kid yourself,
you know they want money
Please keep in sight what makes you care
You have it always
Spinning and spinning
Dancing
in plastic, shake-up snow
Do you believe in what you want?
Your camera flash
On us, meaningless
You cannot waste
a single night
What you ignore is priceless to me
"A Sunday" (4:31)
On a Sunday I'll think it through
On
the drive back I'll think it through
What you wish for won't come true
Live with that
On a Sunday she thought it
through
Now as I drive back,
There's thirty-six less hours I have to change the course I send myself
Live with that
On
a Sunday go once around
Because when the ride's done, the hopes that you have carried
They fall out from your hands
back to the ground
Live with that
Learn as the drugs leave
Learn as you lose it
You will
The haze clears from
your eyes on a Sunday
"Crush" (3:11)
Faintest snow keep falling
Hands
around your waist
Nameless, standing cold
Take in restraint like a breath
My lungs are so numb from holding back
Walk
close to the fence
Feel it hit your clothes
Turn and smile nice
Smile say goodnight
Say goodnight in a breath
Simple
discourse breaks you cleanin half
Regret
Do try it once and then you know
Your move
Settle for less again
"12.23.95" (3:42)
Didn't mean to leave you hanging
on,all alone
Merry Christmas baby
"Ten" (3:48)
We left behind the busy crowd
So
it seems to slow down
Meet me with a way out through the lies
Nowhere, going nowhere in the fake yellow light
The
feelings change so fast
Safety scares them away
I can't bring myself to say it's my own advice I need
Nowhere and
then nowhere
Living trapped inside the chase
Our weakness is the same
We need poison sometimes
So take another
drink with me
Blame no one
Look in my eyes and blame no one
"Just Watch the Fireworks" (7:02)
Here you can
be anything
I think that scares you
I've been here before but only by myself
What giving up gives you and where giving
up takes you
I've had and I've been
Here in center frame, there's only air
Just enough space to fit
I said it
out loud over and over but what do I know
I said it out loud but it did not help
I'll stop now
Just so I can hear
you
I stay up as late as it takes, as long as it takes
I promised I'd see it again
I promised I'd see this with you
now
"For Me This is Heaven" (4:04)
The first star
I see may not be a star
We can't do a thing but wait
So let's wait for one more
The time such clumsy time in deciding
if it's time
I'm careful but not sure how it goes
You can lose yourself in your courage
The mindless comfort grows
when I'm alone with my "great" plans
This is what she says get her through it:
"If I don't let myself be happy now then
when?"
If not now when?
When the time we have now ends
When the big hand goes around again
Can you still feel
the butterflies?
Can you still hear the last goodnight?
Close my eyes and believe wherever you are, an angel for me
"Blister" (3:29)
Take advantage of these times,
you said
You let me down
It hasn't been the first time
As I'm falling in the pit of fire my mind's made up
I'm
never coming back here
How long would it take me to walk across the United States all alone
The West Coast has been
traumatized
I think I'm the only one still alive
Is it just a coincidence to see you by yourself with no direction
Now
it's time to move on
Don't you know that things are getting better
Don't try and stop me
Because I'm falling fast
into this pit of fire which surrounds us all
In a blanket of fear that I've been wrapped in for years
You can't stop
me
When the world caves in what are you going to do for me
"Clarity" (4:02)
I'll take your words as of you
were talking to me
Say what I know you'll say and say it through your teeth
With pride keep every failure in
And
with pride hold on to the sinking
Now in the deep aand down your heart moves
Now in the deep and down, I don't know
how but I know I want out
Wait for something better
Will I know when it can be us?
Maybe that doesn't mean us
Wait
for something better?
I shouldn't, it's not enough
Pull one excuse from another
Just one excuse from another
This
time it means us
Stop
"Goodbye Sky Harbor" (16:11)
"Is tomorrow just
a day like all the rest?"
How could you know just what you did?
So full of faith yet full of doubt I ask
Time and
time again you said don't be afraid
"If you believe then you can do it"
The only voice I want to hear is yours
Again
I
shall ask you once again
And again
He said: "I am but one small instrument"
Do you remember that?
So here I am
above palm trees so straight and tall
You are smaller, getting smaller
But I still see you
