Don't know why I'm cleaning up this place
Like a dog without a golden chain
I just know that I don't wanna live this way
So I do all the things
That I've done somewhere else
And it's all a mistake
So much more than I can take
It's what you want
It's always what you want
Never thinking of someone else
Once you get It makes you so upset
Now you're punching holes in walls
Won't you see that I ain't got no need tonight
There’s plenty to see when you forget about me
May all your dreams come true
And it's all a mistake
So much more than I can take
It's what you want
It's always what you want
Never thinking of someone else
Won't you see that I ain't got no need tonight
There’s plenty to see when you forget about me
May all your dreams come true
You can show me the door
May all your dreams come true

Beans and Cornbread

I see you seated across the table
Not engaged and barely able
To turn away from your second screen
Let us consider what that means
I don't know if they really put a man on the moon
Or is that what I should think?
It's not impossible to find a way
To get out of here, get out of here
Float, Float away from the world
Away from the boys and the girls
Away from everything
You think you know
I don't care what they said
This is hurting my head
You won't lift up your head
To hear what I said
Beans and cornbread
I don't know what you hope to see
As you're looking away from me
But I know what I'm gonna do about it
Once alive, I was dead, I was losing my head
That much I know for sure
Someday I'll make my way to finally find
A way out of here, get out of here
Float, Float away from the world
Away from the boys and the girls
Away from everything
You think you know
I don't care what they said
This is hurting my head
You won't lift up your head
To hear what I said
Beans and cornbread
I don't know what you hope to see
As you're looking away from me
But I know what I'm gonna do about it

Hard to Hear

I hear the words that you speak to me
Your arm around my neck, my heart's feeling you
It's hard to hear
That you're running out of time
Running out of time
Yeah you're running out of time
Running out of time
I won't share my perspective
So I don't scare you off
When I look at everything
My whole world gets lost
I won't share my opinion
So I don't break your heart
When I get too honest It all falls apart
I know that you want a place to be
I know that you want it
I know that you want a way to live
I know that you want it
It's hard to hear
That you're running out of time
Running out of time
Yeah you're running out of time
Running out of time
I won't share my perspective
So I don't scare you off
When I look at everything
My whole world gets lost
I won't share my opinion
So I don't break your heart
When I get too honest It all falls apart
At the planting of a very new tree
Will it own itself, or outlive us all?

Portrait

When you call I wish you wouldn't try
The things that you say make me want to die
Why did you think that I would wanna hear this?
I'm not flattered that you want to share it
We were friends once
But I moved away
Cuz I can't abide by
The things you say
Let me draw you a portrait, okay?
I hope it helps you understand

Choices

Each way I see a wall
Beneath I see a fall
I'm stuck to this point
My old heart I will anoint
When I am honest with me
I never find what I need in the world
And it's bringing me down
I turn away
I don't see you
I don't hear you
I won't mail you
I can't fail you
Making it seem like I got choices
Making something out of nothing
In my head I hear your voice
Telling me I got no choice
Fight the urge to lay down arms
Break the oath to do no harm
If you do know me
You all know I won't break free
I will just stay here
We all will just get weird
When I am honest with me
I never find what I need in the world
And it's bringing me down
I turn away
I don't see you
I don't hear you
I won't mail you
I can't fail you
Making it seem like I got choices
Making something out of nothing

Disposition
02:46

In my mind I write a list
Of all those who make me pissed
Each of you represent
All the things that I resent
What I want to do Is never to find you
Once you cross my path you can’t contain me
Now they're here to take me away
To a place where I must stay
Here I sit alone and rot
Left alone with only thoughts
I'm just staring at this room
Where my thoughts they start to fume
If my hands they could be free
I would make you see
That what you want Is not for me
And where you go I will not be
Once I see they've left the door
They can't contain me anymore
Now I'm free it's time for me to cross you off my list
Listing all the things in the world I just can't accept
These are all the things in the world that I must reject
Listing all the things in the world I just can't accept
These are all the things in the world that I must reject

Motivation

Take me apart
Taking all the reasons why
I never start
You are not what I what I would have you be
Drive you away
That's where you'll stay
I want you gone
So I can
Move on the path to where I want to go
You will not know
Someone else will have to show you how
You'll make new friends
And forget my face once it's replaced
Just recall that's not all I was
You disappeared
Just as I feared
Found you right there
What do I care
Motivations changed you
Motivations changed me
