In a Sense
03:49

When I lost track of my advice
I let myself know I'd
Be coming home tonight,
In case I worried,
I'd be coming home tonight.
I know I'm losing things,
And I hope I find things too,
And I hope I find a scene
Where I don't know anything.
I guess I'll have to leave someday.
I hope that won't be right away.
When there's nothing left to lose,
Nothing left to say.
I hope my innocence was lost
While I's remissed and sauced.
It's too much of a cost.
She said you'd never make it,
So I hope she gets her soon.
I know you might not make a move.
But if you feel that now is not the time
You need feel in line,
But don't let your life end in regret.
Try not to say not yet.
Sometimes you have to fuck around.
You can only hope you won't be found.
If you hope to make it back someday,
I can lie and say they'll be a better way.
I do hope you made it underground
In time for you to learn
You never can return
To mama's favorite burns.
You'll never make it back again
So I hope you made it in.

Ask Me Again

Ask me again,
Show me a trick,
Tell me what you’re running from -
You didn’t ask if I wanna know.
Tell me your lies,
Tell me your truth,
Tell me how we met again, you know Im not going out tonight.
Show you inside,
Reach for the hand,
Never know what it was trying to say again anyway.
Glad that you tried,
Opened my eyes.
Sorry I didn't get where you came from.
Where are you now?
What are you like?
How do feel?
How do you do?
Come on my friend,
You asked me again.
Tell me what you’re looking for -
Ask me anything you wanna know.
I don’t regret anything I said.
I really didn’t want an answer anyway.
Let me know once,
Let me know twice,
Tell me what you're looking for and I’ll tell you another side.
And when you do, tell me what’s true
I hope I listen to what you say
Why’d you forget?
Why’d you forget to call?
Why’d I forget?
Why’d I forget to call?
Say we don’t fight:
Tell me where you went, and I’ll tell you how happy I was though it might sound strange.
Watch, don’t step on my shoes.
Tell me again just what you did, so proud.
I don’t believe someone like us could do that.
What’d you receive? Ask them, listen to us tell you
I do not care about you,
I do not care about you,
But I do.
I should not about you,
I should not care about you,
I should not care about you,
But I do.

Picture of the Year
02:07
|

When I look in
Your steely eyes,
There’s something lurking there.
I wish I knew
What lay behind
All your silvery hair.
You think we’re crazy?
You think we’re mad?
I’ll show your babies
That times are bad.
Get thee lost behind me man -
I’ll stay there ‘til the end.
Don’t know what we will do like that...
Perhaps we’ll make amends.
A day is coming,
Coming Soon,
To theaters around the country -
Dark, Desperate Moods
When lost inside the body
I can tell an end is near
And I hope I’ve got that front row seat
To the picture of the year!
To high stakes rolling banks!
To the bear and bull that tanked!
To those who bring us fear!
To the picture of the year!

So Slow

So slowly
I’m bringing you back in the atmosphere -
Where the air will be clear.
We’re going to make it, we’re going to lose
All the things that are naked I wanted for you to know.
That I wanted to know
If you wanted to know
That I wanted to know.
Time’s not the only
Way we get lonely
‘Cause nothing is ever enough.
I know if we try there’s no place we can’t be as happy as where we are here.
I know that you know when there’s nothing to go on
I know that you never will tell
Cause nobody knows just what we’re seeing,
and no one beside us could know.
