Resist this Prose

Old fashioned typewriter
It works all day
Lowercase apology
With nothing to say
And the memories will fall off the crown off your head
If you’re better off here you’re better off than dead
I resist these thoughts that are here in my head
Resist this prose! And stay on your toes!
We go slow
Oh and babe that’s all we know
We like to go slow
And with nowhere to go
And the wind will follow your ambitious sound
And will blow your ideals that you carry around
It will test all the feelings that you store in the ground
and uncover what you want it to do, you know?
And the memories will fall of the crown of your head
But you can’t shake all the shit that you wish you had said
But if it keeps you awake when you’re lying in bed
Resist this prose! And keep on your toes!
We go slow
Oh and babe that’s all we know
We like to go slow
And with nowhere to go

Lost at Sea

We can’t find you anymore
We can’t find you anymore
dropped your license in the store
And then you ran out
You’re only seeing black and white
while you’re sailing through the night
Asking strangers for a light,
You’ve lost all doubt
You were skipping out the door
Said you’re heading to the shore
And You don’t need us anymore
Just the rocks and the sand
You’ve been taken by the waves
Just how you end your Saturdays
There’s no reason to be saved
From your ocean home
We can’t find you anymore
We can’t find you anymore
We can’t find you anymore
You’re lost at sea
You’re only seeing black and white
and you’re sailing through the night
Everything will be alright
We’ll see you at home

Carnival Weekend
03:27

Pushed me on the carousel
Told me you weren't feeling well
Threw me off the Ferris wheel
Never told me how to feel
(Drinking wine on the Ferris wheel
Your bloody knees will never heal
Carny soundtrack keeping time
It’s beautiful here and everything’s fine)
Issues with the turnstile
Said that it might be a while
A detour through the midway
Didn’t give me much to say
(Drinking wine on the Ferris wheel
Your bloody knees will never heal
Carny soundtrack keeping time
It’s beautiful here and everything’s fine)
(sharing lyrics might make people more okay with some incomprehensible production choices?)

Whatever happened to you
When I was lonely and you were too
Your heart shaped glasses couldn’t see through
The hole in my head that’s reserved for something,
Knew you wouldn’t call, cause you had no reason to
make any plans, which is up to you
And it’s A-okay for you to do what you need to,
And in three week’s time, it won’t matter cause you’ll be
Far, too far away
And I was dumb,
didn’t know what to say
And whatever happened to you
When you disappeared on a trip to Japan
We hadn’t spoken for so many months
And I wanted to hear from you but on the other hand, I
Knew you wouldn’t call, cause you had no reason to
make any plans, which is up to you because
You live in Japan, so do what you need to,
And in three years time, it won’t matter cause you’ll be
Far, too far away
And I was dumb,
didn’t know what to say

Oceans 9-5
02:32
|

You can take your time on the ocean nine to five
And you can call your favors If you need them to survive
And if you take your tolls they won’t get you very far
It’s alright, pack your bags, hit the music in your car.
And I know that it’s fine but at least I’m not wasting my time on an overcast day
You were fit for the road packed your bags and skipping town
Cut your ties said goodbye, now they ask If you’re around
And if you take It to heart It won’t get you very far
But you’re gone It’s too late Like a bombed out Shooting star
And I know that it’s fine But at least I’m not wasting my time on an overcast day

Human Profile
02:30
|
|||
|
Out of time but the clock keeps ticking
Nobody knows what the hell he’s thinking
His better days never seemed to last and
he’s drinking alone by the overpass
He passes time and he’s counting hours
Wasting years, He killed all the flowers
Man, he’s the boss he’s a human machine
He’s an evil neighbor and he’s putting down dreams
He’s the man
He’s a human profile
He never comes home
Cause he’s living alone
Carnage Chaos, he’s no person
Have another drink just to make things worse and,
On his lawn watch him sin
Nobody knows about the trouble he’s in
Hopeless breathing, trouble seeing
Lives alone, he’s losing feeling
Feeling healthy, feeling tired
Feeling bad, too bad, you’re fired
He’s the man
He’s a human profile
He never comes home
Cause he’s living alone

Bridges Revisited
03:07
|

|
She watched the bridge burn
While she sat in the snow
And watched her hands bleed
As her breathing got slow
A match and kerosene
She fought the winter’s cold
And drank poison
To keep from growing old
Two years and a month
She’s been away from home
She made a few friends
But is better alone
She found a connection
But when things took a turn
She ran down to the river
And watched bridges burn
