Stars just were not aligned for me
So I stopped seeing her woke up on Sundays early
I tried to give a name to it all
But when I tried so short and very tall
The only ring I'm looking to wear
Is the buoyant one I'm not looking to share
CHORUS:
You know what I like best
When we're both depressed
And my mere presence seems to offend
Tattoos are peaking from your sleeves
Seeking angels of Abrahamic beliefs
Oh how we are so medium sized
We're flecks of keratin there's two black holes for your two eyes
CHORUS
Sitting on the toilet seat half sleeping half awake
Relief comes only from the squeeze of non-poisonous snakes

Buddha-like Smile

I'm out here on the rocks
You're standing in the sand
Silent smiling with the rake in your hands
Is this depressing you
Or just depressing me
That I've begun to smell the sea
When I get overjoyed
Who will I whisper to
And when I get paranoid
Where will my bottom move to
CHORUS:
I thank you for the nice things
We'll grow but they won't change
But once you move away from here
Will I see you again
Your Buddha-like smile
Your Buddha-like smile
Your Buddha-like smile
Will calm me for a while
Your Buddha-like smile
Your Buddha-like smile
Your Buddha-like smile
Will calm me for a while
I floated by myself
But now your gravity
Is pulling harder till our centers meet
But if you leave my dear
I'll just spin out of whack
You check the almanac
I'll see you in seventy-five years
CHORUS

Yes, You Do

Who cares if I’m running if I’m trying or I’m gunning
Yes you do yes you do
You said you came here for me, but you just sit and ignore me
Yes you do yes you do
You don't wanna fight it you just wanna look inside it
Yes you do yes you do
You want me to move to tibet but i am not enlightened
Yet you do yes you do
You're thinking that i'll miss you here i am so what's the issue
Yes you do yes you do
Pounding on the ceiling doesn't answer what i'm feeling
Yes you do yes you do
I know you're probing further seeking answers don't you push me
But you do yes you do
so who cares if i'm running if I'm trying or I'm gunning
Yes you do
The rollercoaster’s breaking down but I’m still stuck in this small town
I once practiced singing alone now I just sing when you’re at home
I wish that I could be a man but when I punched the wall it hurt my hand
If I’m not feeling better now I’ll write about it anyhow
Yes you do

I’m really trying to believe in everything at the same time
And I’m not denying that you probably went through the same thing a long time ago
And if you say something that I don’t wanna hear
I just know I just know I will die
Allow me to answer your next question before I have to hear
Discuss all the options between me going home or suffering here
I don’t wanna talk about it, so maybe we don’t have to do anything
But don’t forget about it, so I don’t have be put back in
CHORUS
If faith is pain then I know I’ve got mine
I’ll just fall asleep with my sweet little porcupine
I'll try to be reckless but I guarantee it's not gonna hold
It sounds a little feckless to just qualify something I don't even know
Now hand me the Bible dear 'cause I want it to burn now that God is a dog or a bird
A writer a drinker even he wasn't made for these times
And hard as is watching I regret your getting caught in the same fucking fire
And if this record holds I'll be feeling the same for a while for a long long time
Oh and the feeling’s coming back
