Can you Seemour?

You sensitive aesthete, never do what your told
Watch out for the trees, keep your eyes on the road

I know you wanna die before you get old,
Cause you walked to the beach with a wish
In hopes of catching some bananafish

You’d never eat too many, cause then you’d be stuck
With a swelled up head and shit out of luck

I think it’s time you stopped hangin’ out with four year old girls –
I know you mean no harm, but it’s the kinda thing that sends some people for a whirl

So I won’t let you play and I won’t let you moan
I won’t make you wait up all night by the phone

I’ll fall asleep until you come home
Why oh why’d you pull out that gun
I know that you don’t wanna hurt no one

But yer a person too
It’s scary but it’s true
But... If you blow your brains out... I wanna be there with you

Leaves

Blown by the wind, her wavy brown hair tossed in the breeze,
careless as leaves in the fall
But what does it matter if my life is in shambles
what does It matter if I can’t have you

Little Oranges and Little Blues

Nostrils bloody, soul on fire, finger nails chewed to the bone
I think on you and what you owned
Since you’ve gone things aren’t the same
Now I walk the long abysmal desert plane alone

There’s nothing up there for you to feel
Why’d you gotta risk it, There’s nothing up there at all
Cause you feel too much and know why you’re wrong
Your drugs and your shrugs of distaste won’t change the fact that you’re gone

And I hope you are happy with the things that you chose
I’m long lost and lonely for another one of those
Silently screaming through fog and through pills
Uppers and downers I shiver and chill

Let me in closer and feel how I hurt
See the sunshine faking through me
Feel me closer, you’re getting to me
I can’t stay, follow me, follow me, hold me in your arms and show me that you’re there
Show me I’m not the only one who cares

Tell me that you don’t wanna see
What I don’t want you to know
When you go do bed at night I’m left alone
It’d be cool if you didn’t go
But if you do

Then I hope you are happy with the things that you chose
I’m long, lost and lonely, drunk to my fingers and toes
Silently screaming for help and for pills
Uppers come down and I shiver and chill

You can’t take it with you
Always alone
Can’t take it with you

I dunno but something in you wants to be numb
Something in me wants to be numb
I don’t wanna feel
I don’t wanna heal
Something wants to burn out
Something wants to expire
Somethings wants fuel on the fire
I wanna scream and kill insensitivity
I wann flee and take it all with me
Wanna fly wanna cry wanna die

Let Me In

There’s lots of people I’d like to forget
And places that empty me out
wish I could find you, but so far away
cross a lifetime, an ocean, a trivial day
a trivial game we’d play
holding eachother, but not knowing why
but who got blamed that day
when you suddenly left me, to feel more pain

they took you and chained you and hurt you and pained you and scarred me
I thought you had left not for now but for good

totally alone
in this world I no longer roam
my head has been disowned
by the light of the night that has killed my sight

when they took you, I fell in to darkness, feeling cold and afraid
I try to feel you – I want to be deeper than before
Let me in closer and feel how I hurt
See the sunshine faking through you
Feel me, feel me, let me feel you breath, easy and painlessly

I wanna go back to the way that things were
Cause I’m drunk lost and lonely for a version of her
But a version of her wouldn’t help me at all
Cause a version of her, wouldn’t be her at all
