Tired
04:31
|
|||
|
your hand is reaching out to me in the dream
it is reaching me, holding me, loving me
your hand is attached to an arm that wraps around me
and holds me
naked in my desire
i’m not tired
cause i’m on fire for you
i open my eyes and the hand that reached out,
is only halfway there to catch me
i’m a little bit tired but i will sleep in the same sheets
that held us not so long ago
chorus
a kiss a breath on your eyelids, your eyelashes
i place it there
and i wonder at the wonder of you

Roses
04:34
|
|||
|
sitting in a cafe, waiting for the red-eye to LA
everywhere i turn, i see your face
absinthe doesn’t sit as nice, i’m melting in the glass with ice
i need a little taste of you, it’s true
roses die on the vine
people starve all of the time
it’s not fair, why haven’t you called
it’s all your fault
running between drops of rain, rushing for the track 29 train
hurting me was all a game to you, it’s true
roses die much too fast
how long did that cold war last
it’s not fair, why haven’t you called
it’s all your fault

Sylvia Says
04:26
|

|
sylvia says that we only have a billion breaths
she says we’re born, we have a life, then we have a death
she tells me that a yogi told her so
I eat my yogurt and I wonder how he knows
Ch: sylvia says
sylvia says
sylvia says
breathe
does this mean that if he did yoga everyday
breathed more slowly, learned to pull it in a deeper way
reached with outstretched arms for the birds in the trees
that he would live longer than me?
chorus
so if we came in and remembered to count diligently
we would be as god and we would know when it’s the end
but would that make it any more elegant
or any less difficult to say goodbye
chorus
slow down you move too fast
gotta make this life last . . .

Mars
04:45
|
|||
|
i'm moving to another country, far, far away
they found life on mars
i wonder if that's far enough
if i did that, if i went away
would it be enough
to make you stay
i'm in a bit of a drunken haze but suddenly thinks seem clear
i didn't realize that for us to be close
i couldn't be near you, my dear
i have to say you warned me, your lover was far away
it was enough for the fantasy
of how it would be someday
but if you see me on the cover of "people"
it'll be as a big, big star
of research and development
on the planet mars
it's ironic alanis, not chardonnay
how as soon as things were spoken
things changed
i don't believe i have any ghosts out to get me just now
so i think i'll put on my snakeskin
and go out on the town
CHORUS
SOLO
i'm moving to another country, far, far away
they found life on mars
i wonder if that's far enough
if i did that, if i went away
would it be enough
to make you stay

Mad Hatter
04:08
|
|||
|
oh look, you brought me flowers
how sweet
reminds me of some rancid meat
i had recently
i seem to remember
lots of loving words
even if it was in the heat of the moment
and even if you were in heat
inst chorus
you made us a picnic
so thoughtful
china, wine, white tablecloth
and some old chicken broth
you had everything you needed
to take advantage of me
even if i was in heat
and even if you were in the moment
and i don't deny
i was willing
i was walking
i was spinning, as i said
you between my legs
spoke as much
and i was lunch
i'm just sitting here humming, spinning
i'm just sitting here cumming, grinning
but i'm not mad
i'm not the mad hatter, alice
solo
and i don't deny
i was willing
i was walking
i was spinning, as i said
you between my legs
spoke so much
and i was lunch

Need
04:38
|
|||
|
I will need you, I will stay
With my heart open in this place
I will need you we can play
You’ll be seven, I’ll be eight
I will need you, I will wait
So much sweeter in this place
Fight my heart closing, I’ll fight my fear
I believe you won’t leave me, my dear
I will need you
I will need you
I will meet you, twice a week
We’ll eat ice cream, you can treat
I will not let you go, you will not fall
I have faith you won’t drop me at all
I will need you
I will need you

Let Myself Alone
03:55
|
|||
|
my daddy told me i was gonna be
a big big star on the tv
my daddy loves me he would never lie
he drink moonshine at the five and dime
yeah, let myself alone
she do the sing song willingly
she want her honey from the queen bee
she watch the big stars on the tv
white hot angel sleeping dreamily
and i let myself alone
all she really wants is to find her way (3x) yeah
she want to do good be a nightingale
fiery wild junk is floating everywhere
she take a drink and light a cigarette
she want the whole world every little bit
and i let myself alone

Nap
05:03
|
|||
|
red light shines down from the top of my building
nap in progress
please stop all construction
and god smiles down
miguel & jose do not
who do you think you are
chorus: i am open, i am waiting
i am tasting my tongue to the earth
like a lover i draw in
and give out
i walk the lane, a medium
and the purity
toward the light
i am being erased and i expand into the space
around me
chorus
and so the light bathing down
when i am well
the light goes off
the sun shines down
i am healed
i kneel
at the temple of you
as i should have done all along
chorus

Sciatica
04:35
|
|||
|
i was lonely for so long, forgotten what it was i longed for
i used to have a futon on the floor
it did save space, but i don’t need the space
just want to feel you, just want to fill you up
my nerve is pressing, but my will is strong
sciatica i know you
running down my leg, like a train line from new york to washington
red velvet seats high on red velvet i lie, on red velvet i lie
his title was very long psychopharmacologist, like supercallifragilist
ex-theolog it’s atrocious
he didn’t make me wait
just want to feel you, just want to fill you up
chorus

Opposite Of
06:15
|
|||
|
You asked me what I would write
Would it be something about leaving
And buses and airports and trains
Would it be something sad
or something about the light on the sea
or something about me, maybe
maybe something about me
you asked me what’s on my mind
I don’t think you really want to know
Cats, trash and you
See, I never thought you’d come here
I never thought you’d be here
I never thought you’d come to me
But something’s not right baby
3 years is a long time
love is just the opposite of
want is just the opposite of
hate is just the opposite of
love
I looked inside what else is new
I read my books about
Obsession, compulsion and brains
Want to be somewhere light, or
Take more medication I hear the bell
You asked me to not hate you
Maybe there’s a lesson here for me, as well

Green Pillows
02:49
|
|||
|
green pillows
to lay my head
green pillows to rest my bones
what color are the walls?
green pillows
all I can think of
ballroom dancing so fanciful
green pillows at the end of the day
at the end of the couch and you
green pillows
catch my dreams
green pillows to go with the chair
got to refinish that thing
is that all you can think of
yes, green pillows, green pillows
every time I think of getting it
every time I think of doing it
every time I think of you I get it, it get it
green pillows
float on by
green pillows
horse and green apple
what color is my parachute
green pillows make me fly
green pillows make me fly
green pillows, green pillows, green pillows
