moon 02:37
Last night’s moon came down today To the bottom of the sky Just staring through the haze at me. And I’m bound to be Shooting to the moon Cause I can’t find my place down here. I get lost – can’t elevate Just shoot me to the moon, man. I can’t find my place down here. Down here. Last night’s moon’s a memory Memory’s a curse to me Shoot me to the moon, man I can’t find my place down here Can’t find my place down here

My luck is poor It has no savings My luck is broke and tired My luck’s a recluse It won’t ever show its face My luck is hid away My luck is down My luck may be dead It’s a cruel enemy that I purposely protect These insidious tricks – and I know, I’m aware My luck is mean to me My luck is poor Its account is overdrawn My luck is a dead end street And a cruel enemy that I purposely protect A malicious bitch – and I know, I’m aware My luck is mean to me She’s a cruel enemy that I never could reject A relentless itch – and I know, I’m aware My luck is cruel to me.

I met her on the edge of a roof singing to the moon shadows on her face I met her on the edge of a roof one night sprawled out on the tar under an endless net of stars she hung for me. I loved her on a roof many moons ago and it feels like a dream to me now. I loved her on a roof in a satin cloak, she's woven into my soul somehow. I loved her on the roof.

Please don’t close the door Leave it open evermore If we need a quick escape Free movement is really all it takes. Once we were bound Chains we’d never live with now And all the blame rests behind my eyes I could tell you just how I feel: Oh, shame. If I was happy then, I’m sad. A meteoric fall A stumbling rampage through the hall of your mind Cover up your eyes I can’t bear to see you cry Oh, shame. If I was happy then, I’m sad. Man, I’ve cried myself I’ve cried rivers, drained my health Nearly drowned Next level down will surely be the end.

I only wanted something to eat I only wanted to be left alone But this world must rub salt in all wounds People laughing and loving their friends But the gas station’s open all night Sometimes I just hope I die Slip and fall under a bus passing by Maybe I’ll slip and fall under the trolley tonight.
7.
No one can hear me Does this mean that I’m dead? Should I be excited now? Or is it just a hex on me? La La Dee Da Measure a distance through a surface we went This depth’s insufficient Deeper into my head Oh me, find love for me. I can’t seem to reach you I feel misled I don’t know if I’m happy Does this mean that I’m dead? I can’t tell if I’m happy Does this mean that I’m dead?

sailing 02:28
Somehow I think I knew some knife would end up in me I’m always catching them – they seem to rain down on me But I thought I saw something in your I’d disappear like an illusionist if I could If I could bend and reshape my whole life Oh, I would To know that something The mystery of something in your eyes I’d stare I’d always stop and stare Oh you, I’m sailing I’d sit and wait like some old dog by the screen door Wait and tap my feet, I’d wear two holes in the wooden floor Waiting for something Some sinister seduction from your eyes I swear, I think it’s really something, it’s true. But oh, I’m sailing I’m sailing away I’d burn the witch if I could only catch him floating Scratch the itch if I could burrow through this coating Of pain and dysfunction I never could just function But your eyes, there, staring right through me Oh you, I’m sailing away from you.

All the wrong roads I took all the wrong roads No one taught me to steer this thing And I don’t have a license I veer this thing into the fire over and over again On the wrong roads All the maps are torn But the wheels keep turning Engine’s burning I’ll drive this thing into the ground I despise this thing It’s just a coffin, I tell you Over and over again I fuck it up down some wrong road Pedal to the floor Where this coffin’s going, I don’t know But I’ll ride this thing right out of this world ‘til I’m unhinged – that won’t be long now, I tell you Over and over again I fuck it up down some wrong road La la la da da da la da da la da da la
