SHY 04:25
Stranger Silent as the street he walks Under cover of darkness Seen only by the moon Like strangers Shadows try to keep their pace and echoes make a conversation to an empty avenue but you're in a crowded room Maybe I'm just SHY Hung up on the wall Painted in a still life I'm SHY The still life Tiny black-eyed daisies Babies breath all tucked away Seem so perfectly arranged Behind the subject Flowers just fall Where they're thrown Words left out of a poem No brush can ever paint The other side of the bouquet

Nowhere 04:13
I'm looking for the place where nothing ever happens Where the music plays low and the hands are not yet clapping I'm looking for the place where the ceilings never spin Where the books are halfway read and the walls never close in I'm looking for the time right before the beginning When my hands would know their purpose and that purpose I'll believe in I'm looking for bliss that everyone must seek To know life's not this bleak To feel close to complete But it's nowhere I'm remembering a time when joy had filled my heart The world had not gone dark Love, life and art weren't so far apart

I live on a dragonfly I say "hello" to the people passing by but I escape their sight For I'm just a mite and I live on a dragonfly Some people look my way As I pass I can hear them say "Oh, what a lovely bug to see" but they're not talking about me 'cause I live on a dragonfly The world's so giant and I'm inclined to feel so slight upon it's back but I'll just keep trying saying "hi" and maybe someone might say "hi" back If no one should notice me Then I suppose that's the way it must be When my day turns to night I pray my soul to take flight On the wings of a dragonfly

I can twist anyway but Sunday You promised that you'd make me someday I don't wanna get better Drunken life of a dreamy dying Trying to squeeze me into a diamond I don't wanna get better! Hey fixer, can't you fix me up With your bubblegum? Never gonna get better! I DON'T wanna get better!!! Falling Too fast Asleep Too long Drugs don't Work for Me A nymore What happened to the dream of me A part of you always a bride-to-be Like a disease named after me Only see it if your looking down Cum stains on a wedding gown NevER Gonna get better!!! I Don"T WANNA GET BETTER!!!!!! The children are all bored on Sunday You'll raise them 'til they like it one day but YOU can't make me get better NOTHING ever Gets BETTEr I DONT WANNFHSNIFNF GBBTER!!!!!!!!!!

Just a thought That's all I've come to be Just a memory Not a lot Just a thought That you press to your breast As other eyes watch you undress All I want When you're so far away from me Just a thought keeps you so near to me No matter where you are There you are Just a thought If your heart was true All I ask of you is not a lot Just a thought
