folded away
in my back pocket

Do You Smell
01:17

i wish that you could smell
the angry smells
they grow like little insects
no wait.they have no shape
it's hard to explain
do you smell that sour dough smell?
do you smell that horrible smell?
were comin to an ending
the anchors falling quickly
gather up the sailors
and tell em to start drinking and
celebrate the bad times
and only sya whatever
to everything from here on out
do you smell that sour dough smell?
do you smell that horrible smell?
the storys almost over
but the book is still closing
gather up the writers
and tell em to start thinking
and hi five the mirror
and make best friends with themselves

i woke up the sunlight
it drug me by my hair out to the day time
writing all these dumb lines
tryin to escape the everyday life
....
falling like an elephant
would fall from a plane
rellevent irrellevent
its all the same
stop cryin bout the little things
were all in pain
destroying everything we've made
it makes no sense at all
i been waitin so long
to catch even a mino
but i fish in the wrong place
wrong time
i woke up the sunlight
it drug me by my hair out to the day time
writing all these dumb lines
tryin to escape the everyday life

but hey
what do you know
dont even tell me what your thinkin

with your stupid pointless point of views
maybe somethin about bein a good writer
maybe somethin about sayin your an artist

the more you swear that im tryin harder
it makes me wanna do more and try a little less
dont even tell me what your thinkin
i probly already know anyway

wonderin how i could be wonderin how i could be fake

sittin in a tree top in my head
gettin all wet
the rain starts poorin
i know everyone dies
might as well
not waiste time and
take a long trip
and make the best of it
just stay awake for me
and trace our foot steps
im full of dead emotion
i could talk and wish forever
and im stuck in the turtle shaped sandbox
noone is home.

Good Memory, Bad Taste
01:02
|

i went swimmin in a pond
i fell inside a wishing well
but you were holdin my arms
just hopin that i wouldent fall
but i fell down
just like a wiches
broom without her ass on it now
i went swimmin again
this time it was my basement floor
always sunny was on
always there to make me more
happier about the situation
just like constantly drinkin
good memory bad taste

i wish that i could pass this bad energy onto someone else
even if i could i dont think id be selfish enough to do say
im like a bird on a wingless flight to the ground
wonderin how
thinkin how
ponderin why and why and why
you say these things
you do
i dont
understand up straight when you look at me lookin at you
im not one so much as
i am 2
