Mirrorhead

In the pink parade of fading night
I slip inside to the deepest light
Like it wasn't the beginning
All my people start to fill with smoke
Until they choke
What a joke, but hey look ma, we're living
I'm not there anymore
Put the world inside a paper cup
And said "that's enough"
Yeah, that's the stuff that they sell on sundays
People talking as they float away
And Joni plays
I'm not there anymore
Silent shiver of a satellite
I'll take that flight
jump around until I'm out of sight
Until i'm bright
I'm not there anymore
Oh mirrorhead and I got mixed around
He's never there and I'm all over town
And every night
A shallow bite
And every night
I'm alright

Burn
04:07
|

|
Hold me
Take me to the other room
I'm afraid of what I'd do
If you tell me a joke and I tell you a lie
If heaven's in your eyes take me home and let me die
I'm on fire
Let me Burn You Down
Kiss me
Paint your fingers onto mine
I could break under your touch
And after a while you will tell me you're mine
Oh please don't let me be
Sufficate the air between us
I'm on fire
Let me Burn You Down
Dreamed so loud my window started shaking
And splitting like your lips under your smile
drunk on dying fire we started dancing for a while
I'm on fire
Let me Burn You Down

Stand Up & Stop
03:04
|
|||
|
Singing to myself with the radio off
I would rather be myself than someone you love
I would like to be over seventy on your good time
But I would like to be the only one that makes them stand up and stop
Pink piano is telling secrets to the man in the moon
Do you remember how it felt to wake up in other rooms?
The gutter's in the street, baby wipe your feet
You'll be back on top
Or you'll never be the other only one that makes them stand up and stop
I've been making my bed
I look just like Mirrorhead
Lullabies make me cry, maybe I'm crazy
But I'd rather bleed than be bled

Feel Good
03:49
|
|||
|
My skin is sewn on tight tonight like a kick under the table
You strapped me to the bow then you forgot
My mouth is full of fists and rotten furs behind your dresser
And none of them sound quite like "Thanks A Lot"
I know what I know, and when I don't know what it is, I say "What's That?"
I was raised on TV, made me Feel Good
Now I don't watch TV, I still Feel Good
And you better believe I can Do Good
I was raised on TV, made me Feel Good
You spend your lonely hours glued to your stars up on your ceiling
And I should know because I've seen them too
An American apothecary like a broken record
But no one lives another time like you
But that's just me, being silly
I was raised on TV, made me Feel Good
Now I don't watch TV, I still Feel Good
And you better believe I can Do Good
I was raised on TV, made me Feel Good
I walk around like I'm not home, my bones are on parade
The shape of something, someone you could use
I turn my head and close my eyes as if your lips were able
A hopeful member of the lucky few
It's fun to care when people stop and stare at you Woohoo!
I was raised on TV, made me Feel Good
Now I don't watch TV, I still Feel Good
And you better believe I can Do Good
I was raised on TV, made me Feel Good
You're a lie that I'll believe
You're the sound of lovers leaving
You're a song that helps me sleep
You're a secret I could keep
I was raised on TV, made me Feel Good
Now I don't watch TV, I still Feel Good
And you better believe I can Do Good
I was raised on TV, made me Feel Good

Feel Bad
03:40
|
|||
|
First you say you will and then you won't
And "I'm the only one that matters"
First you say do and then you don't
And "I'm the only one that matters"
I could never quite believe
That I'm the only one that matters
I wear the same clothes every day on rotation
And when I Feel Bad I go to the movies
They say you either do it or you don't
And that's the only thing that matters
They say that you don't know until you've grown
And that's the only thing that matters
It's always in between
And that's the only thing that matters
You Feel Good you Feel Bad
Or you're Dancing or Not Dancing
And when I Feel Bad I go to the movies
I'm in love with Meryl Streep
I'm sick of living on a busy street
I'm in love with Meryl Streep

I've been saying I won't ever know
I get angry just before I'm gone
But in my head I can remember when we said we knew better then
We said we knew better then
How hard could it be
If I only knew better
I wish we knew better
You're my favorite person that I know
Theo
And on that day when you said you'd never know
You looked at me and it shook me to the bone
You've got friends and people who love you
Who'll never forget you who'll always believe that you'll be all you can be
If you only knew better
We wish you knew better
You're my favorite person that I know
Theo
I've been saying I won't ever know
I get angry just before I'm gone
I've been living a dream, how about you?
You're my favorite person that I know

I'll Wear Anything
03:53
|
|||
|
Another moon, another color
Static applause curing the melody
Follow a finger to another
Looking for pleasure without a memory
Tell me again what I could do better
Her
I've done everything I can do
I'll give you a ring, the sun or the setter
Her
I'll wear anything, how about you?
Give me something
I want you to give me something
But then I heard you you were calling
And all at once you told me everything
You put a flower in my pocket
You were the dirt you were the century
Tell me again what I could do better
Her
I've done everything I can do
I'll give you a ring, the sun or the setter
Her
I'll wear anything, how about you?
Give me something
I want you to give me something

Crying in a Crowded Room
03:24
|
|||
|
I've been wondering what you're wearing
I hope it's not bad company
I've been talking, I've been kissing
But it all tastes the same to me
So close to home so far from you
I keep wondering what to do
You could hit me like spring or a powder blue
Until I'm crying in a crowded room
Face that hangs outside my window
Asks me where I think you've gone
So I put water in your flowers and ask the clock to play along
So close to home so far from you
I keep wondering what to do
You could hit me like spring or a powder blue
Until I'm crying in a crowded room
You're the Devil In My Dresser
You're the Saint That Lights My Street
I'm the Boy Who's Mouth Keeps Moving
But not the One You Meant To Meet

That's Alright with Me
04:14
|

My friends are on the drink again
They're staying out all night
And then I'll drive their asses home while thanking street light
They'll hang around in bar rooms
We'll stay out late in parks
While we're all dreaming of lake Marie and of kissing in the dark
Now I ain't the one now don't you cry for me
For the company's as good as it can be
With my Red Bull and Camel Blues
Oh I ain't got a thing to lose
There's Rainier Beer beneath my shoes
And that's Alright With Me
Boxed wine and tender care
Brushing back our growing hair
I know they could be anywhere
But tonight They'll stick with me
Good time friends and fellas
They have a way with words
they'll tell you plans of garbage and cans
and share the ending first
But we know where we're going
And we know where we'll stay
For the waves and tides will shake the shores in a way
Now I ain't the one now don't you cry for me
For the company's as good as it can be
With my Red Bull and Camel Blues
Oh I ain't got a thing to lose
There's Rainier Beer beneath my shoes
And that's Alright With Me
Boxed wine and tender care
Brushing back our growing hair
I know they could be anywhere
But tonight They'll stick with me
Well it has been a long time since I've danced with the beasts that be
But I will wait a lifetime for the way they sing to me
and if it's too long a journey
and the nights are long and cold
I'll take the time to see them all grow old
Now I ain't the one now don't you cry for me
For the company's as good as it can be
With my Red Bull and Camel Blues
Oh I ain't got a thing to lose
There's Rainier Beer beneath my shoes
And that's Alright With Me
Boxed wine and tender care
Brushing back our growing hair
I know they could be anywhere
But tonight They'll stick with me

I paint just like my mother
I took her red and blue
I sink just like the summer
I'm making nothing new
I made my mind of thunder
My breath of red and blue
I stammer until I stutter
I'm many until I'm few
I could give no one everything
And I'd be fine
Flying through paper covered skies and waiting lines
But I think I'd rather spend my time with the people I love
Time with the people I love
