Hyperspace

Isn't it funny that things you never seem to think about
are usually the things you always seem to think about
cause at 4 a.m. there's really nothing else to think about
Turn off the switch I am begging you please
Unplug me from myself before I start to taste the irony
cause it's making me sick and I can't seem to get to sleep
stumbling blindly through the hyperspace in my mind
How come your mind all the time is your own worst enemy
Lurking in your stomach like a butterfly in disguise
laying dormant on it's own until it begins to materialize
Then one day you meet someone and they're all you can think about
right between your eyes like a splinter in your mind
You try and tell yourself even good things have to happen sometimes
but you only see the glass when it's half-empty every time
Turn off the switch I am begging you please
Unplug me from myself before I start to taste the irony
cause it's making me sick and I can't seem to get to sleep
stumbling blindly through the hyperspace in my mind

A Simple Case of Torture
03:53

I'd write your name on a napkin
if I had more time i'd write it on the wall
dim the lights, change your costume
'cause the mask you wear don't resemble me
When Summer came I lay forlorn
stumble for another acorn
then winter came respite from cold
although the story never gets old....still I do
Harpoon the time I'll buy a snocone
get a Rubik's cube compare it to your life
brush your teeth, I'll make the coffee
haven't I seen you before in a magazine
Roll the dice, play the lottery
Bang your head against the wall until it bleeds
Chew me out, snap a vertebrae
it's quite okay I'm shiny like a limousine
When Summer came I lay forlorn
stumble for another acorn
then winter came respite from cold
although the story...
a life-time of living like a tree
with no sunshine, and the people on the street
pay no mind to, look behind you it's the axe.
When Summer came I lay forlorn
stumble for another acorn
then winter came respite from cold
although the story never gets old....still I do

Life Worth Living
03:15

As I sit in the park
where I first asked you out
seems a lifetime ago that I was living in the dark
You know I see you when I sleep
your freckles and your smile
then my heart takes a leap and I feel alive inside
Take my breath away
that's what I want again and again
I don't want to go on If I can never feel this way
I know I often talk to much
but there's so much more to say
I'll try to put it in a song with hopes it carries on the rain
I miss the taste of your lips
it's driving me insane
I guess that's normal when you've lost someone
or just a problem with my brain
Take my breath away
that's what I want again and again
I don't want to go on If I can never feel this way
If you break my heart again
that's what it takes I'll know the pain
'cause you are the one that makes life worth living, today

Everest
04:15
|

Can't traverse the distance
daydream of what used to be
if only wishes were horses
then we would ride til' the end of time
And you'd see that there's more than what meets the eye
cause' I know that it's pretty much touch and go
for you to be free
It's tougher than climbing Everest
and something that we often see
you seem to panic in narrow spaces
I bet you that it's hard to breathe
Want some validation
for everything that dared to be
there's too much isolation
so close your eyes and dare to dream
And you'd see that there's more than what meets the eye
at least with me
cause' I know that it's pretty much touch and go
for you to be free
Want some validation
for everything that dared to be
there's too much isolation
so close your eyes and dare to dream
And you'd see that there's more than what meets the eye
cause' I know that it's pretty much touch and go
for you to be free

Bloodstain
02:58
|

Spend a lifetime on your own floating upstream on a holiday
popping candy-coated dreams while the real world passes you by
cool your heals on the screams of an airplane at the speed of sound
and in the aftermath the tabernacle crumbles and we go for a ride
You won't find me laughing at the end of the night
so if you try an come at me I'm gonna put up a fight
battered around like a stick in the eye
another bloodstain unidentified
Wipe that dew from your shoe back from your rendezvous
well what have you learned
that all it takes is just another case of heel and fetch and stay and sit
didn't you know it's not a hoax it's just a ghost you should go back to your bungalow
now your pantomime of what is right is saccharine and suiting you fine
you can see the writing, read between the lines
walk a million miles to be by your side
You won't find me laughing at the end of the night
so if you try an come at me I'm gonna put up a fight
battered around like a stick in the eye...

California Quake
03:46
|

Over there the lights are all shiny and new
Polar bears aren't used to living at the Zoo
From across the way your different, I like the view
Will you wait a little while for me?
Over there you never have to pay for things
then solar flares lash out there's always talk of rings
I remember now the moment that it all went down
I think I'll go back to sleep
If the grass was greener on the other side
you'd take my hand and we would fly away
Another California wave to break the bay
Then the stars at night refused to shine
oil on feet, where's the turpentine you say
Another California quake to shake the day
You bleed your share your so-called sacrifice
and no one cares at all if you ever get a slice
never-mind the things we said in retrospect
It was over fore it all began
If the grass was greener on the other side
you'd take my hand and we would fly away
Another California wave to break the bay
Then the stars at night refused to shine
oil on feet, where's the turpentine? You say
Another California quake to shake the day
I don't ever want to change a thing
I'll just pick up my guitar and sing
and fondly reminisce of that fading dream
of over there
