Multicolored Glasses

I have visions of pleasure and pain
Dismantle things frame by frame
Theres good and bad in everything
Wearing multi-colored glasses
My rose lenses keep me sane
Until the sunbeams lead me astray
Then I have to pull down the shades
On my multi-colored glasses
I don't know what I'm doing here
I'm a little disillusioned I fear
Common sense has made me apathetic
Oh well, who cares
I don't want to be a wise cynic
I don't want to be a naive romantic
I'll just keep my multi-colored glasses
I'm sttin up here on my cloud
Having a look around
It's much nicer up here than the ground
Wearing multi-colored glasses
There's so many vibrant colors in the sky
Every corner in a spectrum of light
But soon the clouds will gray and rain me dry
With my multi-colored glasses
I can't see what I'm doing here
I'm a little disillusioned I fear
Apathy has made me unapologetic
Fuck you, go fuck yourself
I don't want to be a wise cynic
I don't want to be a naive romantic
I'll just keep my multi-colored glasses
Mmm my multi-colored glasses
But I could give them away
Trade them in for a little disappointment
And a nice pair of shades Sha-he-hayedsssss
But I-hay-ee-aieyeay, oh, I'm gonna keep my faith.
In my multi-colored glasses

Putting Me On
03:37

Here comes the thunder
What'll it take for you to look my way
Are you afraid of the way the display will relay your decay?
I don't have time to try to change your mind
What others decide is where you find the line to hide behind
I'm just here looking like Furley
My stomachs done knots
The wardrobe you own makes me hurl-y
Though you're looking like a fox
You think the clothes you wear is the person you are
Lets just face it, you're not that cool
If there's one thing that I learned just from chasing you, you think your friends make the fashions but thats not the rule
And who knows, maybe you'll learn how to be more concerned
About the people you burn, not the skirts and the furs you'd prefer to return
You'll pretend I'm not here but you'll never look sincere
Whenever I'm near your leers revere my cheerful gear
I feel like my legs are gonna buckle
The belt that you wear's to tight
Its gonna hold you like a pair of shackles
You'll never wear the clothes I like
So go ahead and put on all your airs
And take them out for the evening
When your friends are all out and youre out on the town
The only thing you wear out is me
You're putting me on
You're not putting me on
You're putting me on
You're putting me on
You're not putting me on

Bottles

I don't know what you're thinking but I'll bet that I like it
Our elders say that great minds think alike
I'm planning out the rest of our lives and I'd like to spend it all with you
I put my faith in a bottle of whiskey
I see from your face you're a victim of whimsy
Lets go moonlight bathing in the future go crazy, baby, we can drain the fountain of youth
While we're watching the moon the ground will fall from below us
We won't see that its gone but we'll definitely feel it
We'll fumble around for something to hold and we'll find each other and hold hands
As the place, the people, and our brains escape both of us
The blurs and the darkness do nothing but scare us
Our sanity falls through the cracks in our skulls until we only know our love
The capsules from your bottles slow your decline
The glassfuls from my bottle degrade my mind
We'll both hit rock bottom at the same time
We'll shiver and we'll shake but we'll comfort each other
As our neurons die
Build a home in the darkness and slowly go senile
No need to look up at the light in the tunnel
The fire in our eyes is enough light to read by even though we'll both forget how to read
In the mornings you'll put your feet in my coffee
In the evenings we'll climb the walls
We'll be so scared, so ill-prepared that the nights are just for us to console
The capsules from your bottles slow your decline
The glassfuls from my bottle degrade my mind
We'll both hit rock bottom at the same time
We'll shiver and we'll shake but we'll comfort each other
As our neurons die
Then our lobes will decay and we'll both waste away
We'll scream at ourselves for forgetting our names
Until our love is the only thing thats real
And we'll smile and we'll laugh, oh we'll laugh
We'll laugh and we'll laugh and our skin will rot and our arms will fall off and our corpses lie together collecting dust
The bones from our fingers sit in a pile, tied together with nothing but love, and the wriggly, slimy maggots that feast on the soul we shared
They wish they knew but they'll never know, no, they'll never know

Bitch
04:08

Bitch, burn in hell
Bitch, go fuck yourself
Your friends, no they don't like you
They just hate themselves more
You're a cunt, I'm not using that word lightly
Your existence is fucking frightening
And if your outside looked as bad as your inside
People would turn to stone for looking in your eyes
I can smell it, the dirt in your skin
You thought that you could play all these games and stay clean
But when you scrub at the scales of your reptile tails
You only thin the skin that holds all your bullshit
You're dysfunction at its most basic pace
Shit-talk others just to save your grace
But you're a fork-tongued, two-faced liar
And there's no hope for you to ever be saved
Still you pretend you're something special
Maybe someday you will realize
Spitting all the venom you spit
Doesn't work in the real-life
You don't know the nastiness of you
It'll come crashing down when you're home all alone
Nobody wants to live with a mean-spirited bitch
Maybe that's how you became such a mean-spirited bitch
Maybe I'm wrong
Maybe it was me all along
Maybe I deserved the way I was treated
Except that I wasn't a dick
And you were definitely a bitch
Nevermind it was you
So go and jump off a bridge
So that the world can finally be rid
Of the evil manipulative fucker
Known as you, you, you
Fuck you, you, you
Fuck you, you, you

Words We Never Speak
04:06

Words never speak the evils among us
The sun slowly sets on the ranch built before us
We can let the golds burn to red
You can bet we'll turn our heads
Because the truth's too much for us to ever lend a light to it
Medicine man's in town
Lift me off the ground
These dirt floors are much too cold
But I am none to old
To live life in decay and sleep away my demons
Look out on the line
Your linens aint so white
See all the grays that taint your sheets Through the haze that wastes you feet
But the sun shines so bright you can barely pierce your eyes through it
Words never speak the evils among us
The sun slowly sets on the ranch built before us
We can let the golds burn to red
You can bet we'll turn our heads
Because the truth's too much for us to ever lend a light to it
Here inside this can
Is the life I could've had
All the joy we could've shared
Will never end this disrepair
My tears I drink though they will never reach my stomach
In the garden stands our tree
But there's secrets underneath
Roots tangle around the bottles
That are buried around the bottom
Look down to broken glass, hold the branch that is your last stand from it
Words never speak the evils among us
The sun slowly sets on the ranch built before us
We can let the golds burn to red
You can bet we'll turn our heads
Or we can catch the light before its out
And bring some life back to this town
But I know we've been beat, we will never see the sunrise
Because the words we never speak only lead up to good-bye

Sacred Nights
04:12
|

Roads that we drove
Stretched out ahead toward the place we would rest and call our new home
The car stalled a little too far
So we got out and walked seven miles or more in the dark
And that silver dollar streetlight
Gave us passage through the trees
We followed as though it would lead us to mutual peace
But the distance was great
And we had no idea it could pull us apart
The moments we shared skip like stones on the blood in our hearts
Those were our sacred nights
Our memories together outlast the sparkle in our eyes
Even though we said goodbye
We can never leave each other for the rest of our lives
On our sacred nights
We arrived in spite of our needs
Stars laid like pearls scattered out on a black velvet sheet
Then we bathed in the wakes
Of subzero waters that barely could cover our legs
Standing warmth to warmth
In the middle of a stream we were surrounded
A golden spray of fireflies danced around in chorus
They glowed as they floated
Flashing life into the silence
They shimmered like stardust released from on high celebrating the joy between us
Those were our sacred nights
Our memories together outlast the sparkle in our eyes
Even though we said goodbye
We can never leave each other for the rest of our lives
We will always have each other in the corner of our minds
Its hard to understand importance at the time
Just know I wont forget you
You've become too much of mine
If ever I get lonely Ill remember you
By my side
On our sacred nights
On our sacred nights
On our sacred nights
Our sacred nights
