Now this is happening commitment trailblazer, your trail is quite a puzzle me - with a preference for making things worse roll your bones I can't help quoting you, because everything that you said rings true what do you see in her? and I'm envying you never having to choose Jerry sent me a note and pictures I want to leave, you will not miss me you'll never know the trap it's set I've heard that you'll try anything twice is it really so strange? there will be no end soon, if I've seen things right that have come but just saying it could even make it happen yes, the past is a strange place she threw me outside, I stood in the dirt where everyone walked P.S. bring me home and have me I don't care what you think unless it is about me ease down the road there's enough gloom in her world, I'm certain without my contribution hovering silence from you is a giveaway there's a black tinted sunset with the prettiest of skies from a seat on a whirling waltzer always has to be the queen bee devious, truculent and unreliable how the frustration renders me hateful I know it's gonna happen someday to you a heartless hand on my shoulder, a push and it's over when you cycled by, here began all my dreams the butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker they cannot do what you want them to do when you see me between Cole and Cahuenga, I'm just plain desperate your face is as mean as your life has been something's got a hold on me and I don't know what the day would surely have to break, but it would not be new the lies are so easy for you would you, ouija board, would you help me? you can tell by his shoes he was born to lose dreams are aligning I’ve entered the game of pricks with knives in the back of me you think you were my first love my only mistake is I'm hoping the story is old, I know, but it goes on Ninjas With Awesome spirits say boo and the paper bursts into fire from passenger view looking out of the window, staring out at the sun oh, I know you don't mean it sullen kids all roses Jersey petals reissue, repackage, repackage should I play ball with the dogs or walk away? all nonsense Demassek with a K all those people, all those lives, where are they now? Tooting Bec Wreck then you'll see the glass hidden in the grass They raised my stupid hand and said "Ladies and Gentlemen, The Stupidest Champion!" they cannot taint you in my eyes at night above our sleeping heads our sleeping dreams were haunted sentimental as a cat's grave why do you come here? I wish I could give a shit, just a little bit honey-pie you're not safe here You lie to your friends and I'll lie to mine. Let's not lie to each other. let me tell you what I heard about a man today hearing distorting and feeling is lying but it never succeeds to prevent me from trying Teachers are my lessons done? I cannot do another one. I go out every night and sleep all day from the floor boards to the flys precious kisses, words that burn me uzi suicide the color of my dreams, if I had dreams the teenagers who love you, they will wake up, yawn and kill you well this is true and yet, it's false I got a catholic block I will not change and I will not be nice I like being on your mind what's best in her is the bottom has stopped I know that a lot of what I say has been lifted off of men's room walls I'm reaching out for something, touching nothing's all I ever do say something warm, say something bright, I can't stand to see you when you're cold I want to lose, oh, please let me lose, it's nothing to you curtains open and the guests are fried, in my attempt to seem dignified the sound of strangers sending nothing to my mind I left the North, I traveled South, I found a tiny house and I can't help the way I feel I wasn't born with enough middle fingers we roll tonight, to the guitar bite You kicked and cried like a bullied child, a grown man of twenty-five! yes she's leading him on and she'll lay him right down when my hallelujah days streak into blues and greys throw your homework onto the fire I've changed my plea to guilty I don't need no bracelets clamped in front of my back I don't think there's anything in that black bag for me you cause as much sorrow dead as you did when you were alive please help the cause against loneliness I could hang about and burn my fingers hideous tricks on the brain push your neck veins bulbous and make those wires ring Just 'cos you got the power, that don't mean you got the right She holds a phantom, she kisses and she hugs him   are you the person i'm scheduled to meet to assess my skeleton's worth? When my arms wrap you around Cold loving prose.  We stole each other's clothes. these pants tickle I will never say I told you so or how I knew that something bad would happen to you I'm sad to see things change for you who were such good friends the girls have got a house that's like a caravan we passed upon the stair, we spoke of was and when I don't owe you anything that joke isn't funny anymore Am I Evil Witchfinder General busy, busy, busy scissors off the rails I was and off the rails I was happy to stay an illustrated book about birds   I take the cue from certain people I know Be my bloody Valentine I have a new pony, her name is Lucifer while I marched balking at how I had been so rudely placed Panic! Ashes to Ashes Then I'll watch, keep one eye open, halfway fearing, halfway hoping no light on in the hall older and wiser never applies to me with jaded eyes and features my mirrors are black he invented later'd and introduced us to C.O.B. Hater I have your diamonds I've been there and back again Stacked bizzy as usual Tampa Am results and contest photos! Masquerade Mons Castle again, the basement of the Shelborne the malady lingers on hitting the wall like anyone could even know that Driving your girlfriend home Did that swift eclipse torture you? Swerving situations People say "beware" but I don't care   sitting on a ruin Scrap the outfit, and hand me the keys to your car We could see the sights in town Down by the ocean it was so dismal, women all standing with shock on their faces. I kept my promise, I kept my distance Eww Years Eve
