Track Name: Amends
LYRICS:
Capo 9
Em G
Piece of mind
Stay a piece of me
I don't mind x2
F Piece of mind
Em Wait for me
Not so fast I fear
I won't last

Em/G Won't you rip my skin away
tear my bones right out of place
I'd kill myself if I could live with it

G/ Em I couldn't leave my only friend
I'll do what I can to make amends

Em/G/A You got a pocket strapped to your belt on your side, made for a six shot
You got a bullet, and a bag of tricks, a shot of jack,
one spin, and one spot.
And you've got /\ the nerve to tell me, take it easy
F Piece of mind
Em Wait for me
Not so fast I fear
I won't last
Track Name: Sleeping in
You're sleeping soundly in my love
You're sleeping soundly in, my love.

You're making friends and making moves
You're gonna dance to every groove

If it ain't broken, you don't fix
If it don't belong, then you don't mix

You're sleeping soundly
You're sleeping soundly in my love.
You're sleeping soundly
You're sleeping soundly in, my love.

You want to see the world
and be the woman from the girl

When you want to stay inside
You can stay and I won't mind

You don't let it weigh on you
In the way that most people do

Cuz you're sleeping soundly
You're sleeping soundly in my love.
You're sleeping soundly
You're sleeping soundly in, my love.
Track Name: Stems
Not enough Novocain,
Try and treat the animals
without ever learning their names

I heard that baby you've, been wanting more than you will need
And I know that what you're reading from is from a narrow feed
When you tell me your 'thoughts', I can tell you where I've heard them before
You can't be what you're not, babe You've got to build from the floor

I know that most my friends are lonely friends and I
know I can't help much but we make do, yeah we try
You can't always be a flower to them
Sometimes you will only be the stem
Track Name: 5'2" 6'3"
i'm afraid my dear we've gone too fast
you and I could never last
I'm 5'2 and your 6'3
no one can take us seriously
------Prechorus
you can change the spark plugs in your car
I am scared to drive very far
afraid it's time to seek another
We've we're out I'm mistaken for your little brother

-------Chours
There's no hope
no hope for us

you like coffee
and i like tea
you like romance
and I like mystery


prechours
you can run a marathon
I'd rather play settlers of catan
afraid it's time to seek another
We've we're out I'm asked if you're my mother

There's no hope
There's no hope for us

Mouth KAZOO SOLO (all of these words):
i'm afraid my dear we've gone too fast
you and I could never last
I'm 5'2 and your 6'3
no one can take us seriously
you can change the spark plugs in your car

There's no hope
no hope, hope hope for us
Track Name: Hitman
You've got the mind set of a race car
You want to see how long, and how far
You hit it off with the right one
Before you start you know you've already won
prechorus
You've got the body of a hitman x 2
You've got him right where you want him don't you
he's found himself separated from the pack
You do as your mind tells you to
and now he knows he can never go back
prechorus
You've got the body of a hitman x 2
groove x 4 or 8? (Shaker)
a vow or an alibi
you make them wish they'd kept one intact
and now they're just a passerby
waiting to feel the full weight of impact
prechorus
You've got the body of a hitman x 4
Track Name: First
I was born on the first
and I was your first
you always tell me how much it hurt and it hurt a lot


I never let you sleep
I was convinced there was evil in my sheets
when I grew up we had our faults
and we drifted slowly

slowly

slowly


but every now and then

we remember

You will be mine
and I'm always yours
Track Name: Nightmare
LYRICS:

I am running through my hallway trying to get out
but there are prehistoric rabid monkeys all up in my house
I make it to the back yard and run into the shed
I can't tell if the screams are from outside or in my head

I grab a tiny little shovel prepared to kick and fight
and I feel like this will be the very last I see of light
I close my eyes and try in vain wish away this hell
and resign to the fact that I will die in this cell

The noise, it stopped. there's no more sounds
there is nothing around me for miles around
My arm is broken, and my skin is burnt
I wonder how I got here and got this hurt

I see a black bird circle in the sky
and notice some other scavengers nearby
they're all coming closer now and I can't move
but thanks to God I woke up when they bit through.
That was a nightmare, alright.
Track Name: Sand
If it all went round the other way
shoveling the sand into the glasses
on the highway is where we will stay
in here we will not last
would you kill yourself to spite it all
Track Name: Bastard (3rd Grade VDAY)
D#
I stayed up late
and wrote in hearts
every message the same
you can't tell them apart

Decorated a box
for the party at school
There's a card for everyone
because that's the rules

but there was one..
I spent some time
someone like you
deserves some extra lines

in real small type
you can barely see
it says "thank you for
chipping my teeth, you bastard………………….

preCHORUS: STARTS ON C
and every time you push me down I devise
another way to tape you to a tree outside

So there it is
that's my valentine for you
I only gave you one
because I had to, you bastard
Track Name: Seven Letters
intro

I go out of my way
to wear out my welcome
I go out of my way
to wither my wisdom

MMmm

I go out in the wind
to mend my woes
when I'm with wind
I tell it which to go

Which way to go

intro

Well I might get tired
I might get mad
If I were inspired
I'd be the better man

I want to be the better man
Be the better man
Track Name: Fear
It's really not surprising that the list of what I fear
Is pretty short and simple and it's relatively clear
1 is death, 2 is dying and 3 is that I say
all the things I should have said a day after the day

I have a fear that I'll never be more than just a worker
ant in a colony where the Queen can't get it right
I spend everyday doing the same thing over
and over again and I never see the light

I don't want to struggle with money for the rest of my life
I fear I won't be a good parent or I'll grow unhappy with a wife.
There are days when I look back and think I never had direction
And think how far off I am in the pursuit of perfection

I fear not being religious will come back to haunt me
I fear that God and even Satan too wouldn't want me
I used to be afraid of singing you my songs
but now that's overshadowed by how loud you sing along


A wise man said, those who face their fears are better men
and I don't know why if given the chance some would waste it all again
Track Name: Inside
If you waste away your days
tucked away in your cage
you'll find when you come out
it's all gone

it's all gone

If you wait around for me
I would try to help you see
That what you keep looking for is already inside

already inside

Don't give up on yourself
Wash your face and hands
learn piano on that baby grand

Don't give up on yourself
We're just around the way
Oh my God we can hear you start to play
