Euphoria

verse 1
I get to feel like I'm not falling off the world today
I get to feel like I can start to cry happily
The darkening sky just got a lot less dark
Cuz you went and made a passionate remark
pre-chorus
Possibly you may have opened a floodgate
That I hadn't noticed before now
October only comes once a year
Now I'm gonna remember it forever
chorus
EUPHORIA
verse 2
I get to have a need for wanting you today
I get to know what it means to leave and still yet stay
Doing nothing but thinking 'bout the situation at hand
Despite all the anxiety in me still I make a stand
pre-chorus
Definitely piqued my interest
Can't get over my self-conscience
Running away until I bleed
Last drops of life that I concede
Just when I thought the only way
To get myself in control today
Looking out over the horizon view
Just a little short from being askew
Won't throw away rocks no more
I don't want to miss what is in store

My New Page
04:45
|

|
According to, that which I find easy to follow
According to, that which I can follow through
So it's written in the
Lines I read (crude instructions)
They're all I need (to live)
Council me, oh wise direction
'Til I break my mold
Take my life and turn it around for me
All my problems solved, they're written on a leaf
Repeat the mantra 'til this word is bond
Please finish your sentences, so I can turn over
My new page

Move the Color
03:36
|
|||
|
chorus
Move the color all around
When I get tired of makin' a sound
Move the color all around
Be it white...or the dark of night
verse 1
Playing around with pretty melodies
Can get you pretty far
Like a bird in a tree in a scene from life
It always brings me down
verse 2
Anger burns red
And envy burns hot
Ashes left all alone
Swirling embers get brought back together
I can see my future now

Anodyne Blues
04:42

|
verse 1
So, I went to the doctor
There’s something wrong with me
Hope I find an elixir
To set me free
But he said there was nothing to do
And nothing to see
Gotta learn how to deal with life
And me
chorus
But I want the anodyne
To make me feel better
So, I don’t have to feel anything anymore
verse 2
So, I went to the preacher
A place for me to atone
They said to pray, down on my knees
And I won’t feel so alone
My words echo through the hall
And fall to the floor
I take my pain, my worries, my fear
And head for the door
chorus
Still I want the anodyne
To make me feel better
So, I don’t feel anything anymore
bridge
One thing just delays it
Another thing just betrays it
A third thing just frays it
Must I really explain?
I don’t want to keep doing it
But I gotta keep using it
I know you will not approve of it
Oh, my pleas are in vain
chorus
Still need some kind of anodyne
To make me feel better
So, I don’t feel anything anymore
verse 3
So, I went to my friends
And my family, too
They got love, and they got wisdom
To help me see this through
They got substance that they won’t fake
There ain’t no angle or ruse
When all the other stuff may fail
You know what to choose
chorus
Maybe I don’t need no anodyne
To make me feel better
So, I can feel everything once more

verse 1
There's a cool girl and a cool guy out in Chicago
And she and he and I go to see Leo.
She is named Georgia and he is named Charlene
And they just shared a whole year for the country
Cool, they're going to insure the whole plantation
Leo, you fellows, don't worry, he's got it covered
But he ain’t showing, and he ain't knowing
So in the 101st year, she gonna share the whole leaflet
chorus
He's a big man
With a big plan
So she, she's gonna try shooting him
She's a big man
With a big plan
So she, she's gonna try touching him
verse 2
georgia had a vacation but it took south
charlene and I and leo took a rest
to where we'll go next, all of georgia know the bet
transportation avenues of sweat at the least

Rover

|
verse 1
My dead dog came home again
Fresh from another kill
Ran mud out on the dusty trail
We'll eat well again, tonight
chorus
Rover ain't like any dog you know
Plain see-thru, except a bone
He likes to play, likes to run
Vanish in the morning sun

Flat Tin Roof
02:16
|
|||
|
There's a cat on a hot tin roof
And it's looking right at me
Curly-Q, tail in a loop
It's all that I can see
Try to move, make my escape
Its eyes follow my every step
Claws drawn, teeth bared, locked in a stare
I think it's bound to go down right now
There's a dog on a flat tin roof
Its fur as white as the snow
Eyes wide, ears in the air
How it got there, I don't know
Trapped again, I look around
Quiet pierced by a wicked growl
A canine conflict rears its ugly head
As the predator begins to howl

In My Room
03:57
|

|
verse 1
There's a candle on my nightstand
And a place for my drink
Curtains drawn forever
So I can have some time to think
chorus
In my room there's a lot of things to see
In my room what a great ol' place to be
In my room there's a lot of pieces of me
verse 2
Closets full of instruments
Strings of an order or sort
The savage beast that lives within
Well, he needs to be soothed somehow
bridge
When I get weary, there's a bed under me
When I get hungry, well, I guess I'll just have to leave
When I get angry, the night can wash over me
When I get lonely, I just stop and start again
verse 3
The ground is brown and carpeted
Ceiling's made of white stucco
The walls are littered with keepsakes and lyrics and friends' photographs
And the comfortable hum of the AC takes care of the aftermath

Strings
04:39
|
|||
|
verse 1
Strum a chord, it’s real
Feel the steel beneath my fingertips
Reverberate the walls
Play a note, play another one
String 'em together in a row
Perforate the air
verse 2
Rhythm’s fast, rhythm’s slow
Keep the beat, don’t lose it
My breath rises and falls
Up and down along the strings
The metal shines and the sound it rings
Sound emerges and the power surges
chorus
Am I going too fast for you?
Am I going too slow for you?
break
Up and down along the strings

Lovedust

|
One day the sun will explode
Everyone you know will be unknown
All memories disappear
Remnants of particles lost at sea
I take a little of me and add it to all of you
You get it consequence-free
Break off some parity
I take a little part of you and add it to all of me
Tiny specks of nothing stuff
But combined they burn intensely
Deny your maker
It's OK to forsake her
