55 Reasons 03:38
There's an awfully sick smell of death in here, but if I don't carry him then who will? So I take my place in the six man race. A walrus grizzly paul bear's place. Goodbye to the night. Hello to the air. Goodbye to you sir. I'll soon see you there. Sweetie you look so good in your dark black robe with your scythe in your hand upon your throne. You've got 55 reasons for me to die. Well read me a story while I sing the lullaby. But I know that one and one and one make three. You're the lying kind. You're unhappy with me, and I was mistreated repeatedly. Oh, you biting snake. Oh, unfaithful me. The categories are too easy. The possessed and the possessive, and the rest make three. Let the lawyers do their best with me, and as for unrest don't you dare forget me. Sweetie you look so good in your dark black robe with your scythe in your hand upon your throne. You've got 55 reasons for me to die. Well read me a story while I sing the lullaby. This allegory story seems cheesy. Don't tear me to shreds before I take the knife to me. Don't speak in tongues to hell with epiphany. Coffee over green tea. Army over hunting. I think I'm on to something. You're proving it to me. Sweetie you look so good in your dark black robe with your scythe in your hand upon your throne. You've got 55 reasons for me to die. Well read me a story while I sing the lullaby. This story begins at the end of one man, and the loss of your heart to the burial hand. So every blade of green grass like your infantry. Lock up all your daughters -- beware of me. beware of me. be aware of me. Sweetie you look so good in your dark black robe with your scythe in your hand upon your throne. You've got 55 reasons for me to die. Well read me a story while I sing the lullaby. Sweetie you look so good in your dark black robe with your scythe in your hand upon your throne. You've got 55 reasons for me to die. Well you've got yours and I've got mine.

You ache for revolution Well who's on your schedule today? You cry need for revolution Well, rip up your plans today I know a sun that will set I've got a kiss you'll forget Oh, baby revolution is as simple as it gets I need you here, I need you here, I need you now I need your face, I need your face, I need it now I know if you were here all of my troubles would disappear and if not what would I care, I'd still have you here with me dear. My mind goes in circles while trying to find your center And my eyes are elliptical, myy muscles stacked thinner Oh, hop in woman in my unmade bed Let's make the ray that shoots that circle universe over again I need you here, I need you here, I need you now I need your face, I need your face, I need it now I know if you were here all of my troubles would disappear and if not what would I care, I'd still have you here with me dear. I know a sun that will set I've got a kiss you'll forget Let's make the ray that shoots that circle universe over again.

RIP RSVP 03:36
I don't believe the early bird always gets the worm I know you'll say, "Clichés don't write themselves" But matrimony isn't so instinctual Though I might agree fear of loneliness may be Don't put your yet laid eggs in one basket We all thought once we had the golden egg But underneath the scope, gold might be plastic It's always the goose that gets away Don't get all crazy, sad, and lonely If things don't go the way they ought to be. I've been wrong about these kind of things before, dear I'm just another fish in the big sea And this feels like I'm talking to a brick wall I know you'll fear clichés won't go away Trust me, this is not my cup of tea here But sometimes there's just things you gotta say Don't get all crazy, sad, and lonely If things don't go the way they ought to be. I've been wrong about these kind of things before, dear I'm just another fish for you to see I'm not going to your wedding in five years It still hurts me that you're not here. And now we've grown so different we might be strangers I've got memories and dreams that just won't disappear Don't get all crazy, sad, and lonely If things don't go the way they ought to be. I've been wrong about these kind of things before, dear But this time I just don't wanna be

She said: "I think you should start thinking about failure" You of all people, should know better You can ward off the demons But you can't beat the devil. :Sizzle: :CLICK:

Oh Time! 03:41
Oh time! What crime, you criminal! You picked the stars, you stole the spark from our eyes. This time, it kind of felt like I had found... It felt like I had found her. In time I'll find you'll leave my mind. The divine with the unkind, I'll lose you fully. And what will remain will be a time, a place, a name, an old surrounding. Gradually clutching we crushed the ability to be lovers So snap a photograph it's fleeting gracefully It's leaving us alone again, to our own again. With time I'll find you'll leave my mind. The divine with the unkind, I'll lose you fully. And what will remain will be a time, a place, a name, an old surrounding. In time you'll miss -- move on -- and kiss new lips And cry out the name of another I fear I'll fear through time alone with mirrors of the past propped up around me. With time I'll find you'll leave my mind. The divine with the unkind, I'll lose you fully. And what will remain will be a time, a place, a name, an old surrounding... with old surroundings Oh time, what crime, you criminal! You picked the stars, you stole the spark from our eyes.

Turn Away 02:43
It's been over a year since you loved me the best I know because I counted Now every time you get a call from me Only a robot talks to me And now my nights bring nothing but bags under my eyes Termites on my eyebrows Cobwebs between my thighs Maybe one day I will finally turn away I run it over and over in my head again, how it ends then how it started Now all I got to show is a lousy song for some to sing along with And now my nights bring nothing but bags under my eyes Termites on my eyebrows Cobwebs between my thighs Maybe one day I will finally turn away It's been over a year since I cleaned my room I know because it's crowded It's been such a test to address this mess Do you have any buttons to press? And now my nights bring nothing but bags under my eyes Termites on my eyebrows Cobwebs between my thighs Maybe one day I will finally turn away Yeah, maybe one day I will finally turn away Yeah, maybe one day I will finally turn away

I've been told my heart is made of wire, and I am smart But all the sense of man can't understand a smile such as yours And I've been told that you've been known to hold me in your stare and to beware and well aware you're coming for me and you will This love so naturally in every seed in every leaf in every tree it dwells within them all eternally And if you finally see what follows life -- eternity Then follow death and find my kiss upon your forehead and be still This love so powerful it flows through me, it shivers leaves, it shakes the trees, it lifts the seas, it calls you to me and it will And if you finally see what follows life -- eternity Then swallow death and feel my kiss upon your forehead and be still My sweet love

Island 04:26
When when the wind whispers I just hear the same words drawn out in echoes And they Yeah, they were right Everything in hindsight comes out from its shadows And all these dreams it's a shame that it's in black and white When I wake I find my vision's drained of color. A face, an embrace, and acres of sand surround the place But when I wake it's just my covers. Promises mouthed by me in darkness Like a water ripple fortress Will collapse And the world Feels like a heart that's beating Cycles all repeating Like it's in love And I just can't take the time's beatings I can't stand you leaving But you're already gone And all these dreams it's a shame that it's in black and white When I wake I find my vision's drained of color. A face, an embrace, and acres of sand surround the place But when I wake it's just my covers. So I sleep Yeah, I sleep right through the sunrise And dream myself an island where we're not wrong So I sleep I sleep right through the sunrise And a dream myself an island where we're not wrong

Your Name 04:43
Your name shakes me Your name breaks me Your name takes me Without warning Until it's this song Just like that song First I write one And then forty And there you go cheering me on. You know how heartache helps me get along. There you go cheering me on. You know how heartache helps me get along. I don't know which one is worse -- your spell or your curse. They both hurt, they both hurt, they both hurt. I know people That know people That know people That you know now Oh to think how They might not know How we fit then How I fell in And there you go cheering me on. You know how heartache helps me get along. There you go cheering me on. You know how heartache helps me get along. I don't know which one is worse -- your spell or your curse. They both hurt, they both hurt, they both hurt. My relationship with The End Is a case where our friendship never ends The love of your gentle face Is a space I'll Fill With Chocolate Yeah, I'm meeting people But I forget their names Yeah, I go to parties And forget why I came Yeah, nobody else's name is the same as the strain that I feel if I dare say your name Oh Irene Oh Irene Oh Irene Oh Irene Oh Irene Oh Irene Oh Irene Oh Irene Oh Irene And there you go cheering me on. You know how heartache helps me get along. There you go cheering me on. You know how heartache helps me get along. I don't know which one is worse -- your spell or your curse. They both hurt, they both hurt, they both hurt. Quero ver Irene dar sua risada

You're haunting me taunting me All fiery red You leave me inspecting my expecting head. Maybe it's by chance I fancy you may be the lasting kind Maybe I'm just blind and antsy -- you're just the next to say goodbye say goodbye Amanda Amanda Your fiery red Your blue eyes all frozen, they're striking me dead Amanda Amanda All fiery red I'm scared to fall for you And the things left Amanda Amanda All fiery red I'm scared to fall for you And the things left unsaid Maybe it's by chance I fancy you may be the lasting kind Maybe I'm just blind and antsy -- you're just the next to say goodbye say goodbye
