The difference between you and me
I don't hate me anymore
The distance I constantly keep is heavenly place for me
This momentary disbelief simply sends me to the floor
The whimpers you don't have to speak
Take me to a place that I don't wanna be
But I'll breakthrough your hard-candy coating
Get down to
Your heart meat still beating and say
I'm gonna love you anyway
The difference between you and me
I believe in me like before
The promises you couldn't keep
Tell me time and time again your dead
To me in this short-lived retreat
Unconsciously begs for more
The whimpers of endless repeats
Take me to a place that I know you won't be
But I'll breakthrough your hard-candy coating
Get down to
Your heart meat still beating and say
I'm gonna love you anyway

Bless Your Little Heart

I think about what you think of me
And with welled-up tender little sighs
Tucked inside your secret room in my mind
The cooing caused by these sacred sounds
Small deposits for some other time
Scenes of crying, cock-eyed cotton candy eyes
And all those giggles they sound so sweet
They've come to save a wretch like me
Oh, you supple little bundle of meat
They say that you look just like me
Bless your little heart
I was so close to finding me gone
Bless your little heart
I will undo each one of these wrongs
Bless
Oh, bless
Bless your little heart
I think about what I used to think
The events that changed me and why
I need these crying, cock-eyed cotton candy eyes
The semi-talented derelict must forget himself for half the time
Kicking and screaming
These inner demons
These demons of mine
And all those giggles they sound so sweet
They've come to save a wretch like me
Oh, you supple little bundle of meat
They say that you look just like me
Bless your little heart
I was so close to finding me gone
Bless your little heart
I will undo each one of these wrongs
Bless
Oh, bless
Bless your little heart

Pink and Paper Thin

Light heaviness
Touch it to me after you persist and love me like you're mine
This
It's held to my heart
Only flesh that's in the way of me and being out of time
This One last caress
When they found you silent, blue and pressed
To start another life
Oh, won't you come along
Almost so close to gone
I wanna come along
Come along
Softness that sits on the surface of the skin
That's pink and paper thin
Pink and paper thin
Landing like this
I see you skating in a three-piece suit
You hardly had to try
It's this emptiness
When they see me, I am what they want to see
A little clown that's filled with lies
Common kindness
When in doubt do nothing
Turn around
Take a tiny bit of time
Oh, won't you come along
Almost so close to gone
I wanna come along
Come along
Softness that sits on the surface of the skin
That's pink and paper thin
Pink and paper thin

Something To Cry About
04:58

We hurt the ones we love the most
Embrace the ones who never show
We're on the floor
On rice we're kneeling
Praying for our souls
Down on the floor
And tutored by untutored ones
Who've only know the same tough love
We learn to cheat and lie and sneak
While hiding what we dream
Hide your feelings
You will hide your feelings
Or I'll give you something to cry about
After I
Give you something to cry about
I'm not your friend
I'm your mother
I'm not your friend
I'm your father
I'm not your friend I'm your parent so don't you forget
Don't you forget
That who we are
Only who they think we are
Now get dressed all dressed up
In your Sunday best
Let's play pretend
That love taps are what we call these
As my hands get away from me
Give me one good reason to
Oh, I'll knock you for a loop
For everything we've done for you
The sacrifices made for you
The guilt and the shame
Oh, they failed once again
Now look what you made me do
This is for your own good
This is for your own good
That I
Give you something to cry about
After I
Give you something to cry about
I'm not your friend
I'm your mother
I'm not your friend
I'm your father
I'm not your friend I'm your parent so don't you forget
Don't you forget
That who we are
Only who they think we are
Now get dressed all dressed up
In your Sunday best
Let's play pretend

A dry-erase board above your bed
Displays of wishes I've expressed
What means the most to me
To see my family
And hold on for as long as possible
Taking on these intolerable weeks
Won't you spend them with me?
This is where i lived and what I did
Don't forget that I existed
My eyes would fill with tears for them
Completing feats of perfection
The gracefulness I seek in me
I hope you see I did my very best
Oh, can't you see?
My love for traveling and all the places I have been
Our spotless glasses touch one last time
As I say to all of you
Cin Cin
This is where i lived and what I did
Don't forget that I existed

Is it legit after all?
He would say
You never got nuthin' off it at all anyway
You could have gone back for it all in the flames
And the best part of it all
We don't have to like them to love them
There's nothing that cuts in the same sort of way
Someone so close yet so far away
You should have gone back for it all in the flames
And the best part of it all
We don't have to like them to love them

You're The Ones
03:20

Barely lifting your head while bleeding red
Your half-dead kisses they comfort me
As all of my fears begin to appear
They tell me as I stand there helplessly
And somewhere between my furrowed forceful drilling
And pampering is where I am focusing
Everything I didn't know that I know
In a flash of an instant is surfacing
You're the ones who know what this means
You're the ones who go there with me
You're the ones who dream what I dream
You're the ones
Tiny body of water is holding the key for a reason to say something
I lost me in a moment to find me in a moment
Where everything ended up horribly
In three days when I leave, I want to leave as three of me
As they wheel you away from me
This isn't happening as I witness you drifting
No words can describe what's been done to me
You're the ones who know what this means
You're the ones who go there with me
You're the ones who dream what I dream
You're the ones

Possible People

It was slowly killing me
Three years ago, to the day
These dismal displays seem to find you
A very simple thin white line
You seem to cross it every time
You act as if you can see through
To what awaits on the other side
A life is almost out of time
It's the number of heartbeats this life gives to you
Till you're through
I'd like to go with you and pose people
These possible people
They're beautifully painted
I'd like to go with you and pose people
These possible people
They're beautifully painted
And their lovely-modeled lips
Will tell you what you've done and what you did
To these innocent victims
It was always haunting me
Outside the lines it calls us in
The feeling that I'm just as guilty
As I become what I've been fighting
I point this finger out at them
Down under the lights I lay into them
Once again
I'd like to go with you and pose people
These possible people
They're beautifully painted
I'd like to go with you and pose people
These possible people
They're beautifully painted
And their lovely-modeled lips
Will tell you what you've done and what you did
To these innocent victims

There Is A Part Of Me
02:57

Like a little pigeon who is fed an Alka Seltzer
You are falling that much faster
Tricked into disasters you can't see
Deceived by a dream
If you come to me to see
That I am everything you see
It's me perceiving me
As I look out as you it's me you see
Experiencing me
There is a part of me that don't believe these things
There is a part of me that don't believe nothing
But like a moth that flies into the flame
You call my name
You pave the way
Like a buttercup found plucked up and picked apart
Pinched each petal falls from fingers
Found to have not one thing left to gain
It's hardly the same as
When you run away to find yourself in the same place
Where you wanna get away
But you only sit and pray day after day
It's only a game
There is a part of me that don't believe these things
There is a part of me that don't believe nothing
But like a moth that flies into the flame
You call my name
You pave the way
There is a part of me that don't believe
