Changing Like The Seasons, My Body And Mind Can’t Handle Such An Event. Was This Even An Event?

Butterflies Beat Violently. At The Sight Of You.
Until Word Got Out. Should Have Known Better.
I Didn’t Want To Keep Anything. Secrets Are For Forbidden Lovers Anyways.
So Words Flowed Like Waterfalls. After The Vulnerable Feeling Went Away, It Felt Great.
The Callback Left Me Shaking For Hours, Days. The Smiles Hurt, Immensely.
I Wanted To Shout From The Mountains. Shout Like Pompei.

Calculation Theme:
I’m sick, you’re tired, let’s dance
Break to love make lust I know it isn’t
I’m sick, you’re tired, let’s dance
Cold as numbers but let’s dance
As though it were easy for you to lead me
I could be passive gracefully
Half the horizon’s gone
a skyline of numbers
Half the horizon’s gone
working the numbers
’till I’m sick
Sleep don’t pacify us until
Daybreak sky lights up the grid we live in
Dizzy when we talk so fast
Fields of numbers streaming past
I wish we were farmers, I wish we knew how
To grow sweet potatas and milk cows
I wish we were lovers, but its for the best
Tonight your ghost will ask my ghost,
Where is the love?
Tonight your ghost will ask my ghost,
Who here is in line for a raise?
Tonight your ghost will ask my ghost,
Where is the love?
Tonight your ghost will ask my ghost,
Who put these bodies between us?
Wet Blanket:
Falling for the creep,
The body leech,
Here he comes
Vicious, hypnosis,
Clenched fist sayin’
“It’s wrong to want more than a folk song”
Underneath the shaker knit,
He’s a brick wall
She keep fallin’ for the trick,
Vegetariate, sing-along,
Give a little kick,
With your fine thigh high.
*Doo-doo-doo, We’re on to you.*
Tearin’ her down,
Talkin’ her down,
Under your breath,
Makin’ a mess,
See she is happy
You wanna break it
*Doo-doo-doo, We’re on to you.*
Tearin’ her down,
Talkin’ her down,
Under your breath,
Makin’ a mess,
See she is happy
You wanna break it
*Doo-doo-doo, We’re on to you.*
Your phony roots,
Borrowed guitar,
Tellin’ her what to think we are
You the number one,
Wet blanket,
Hardly a day goes by you don’t try to break down,
No, I don’t buy it,
You’re still around I wonder why,
She just keep
Falling for the creep,
The body leech,
Here he comes
Vicious, hypnosis,
Clenched fist sayin’
“It’s wrong to want more than a folk song”
Underneath the shaker knit,
He’s a brick wall
She keep fallin’ for the creep,
The body leech,
Comin’ on
Vicious hypnosis,
Clenched fist sayin’
“It’s wrong to want more than a folk song”
“I’m wrong to want more than a folk song”
“I’m wrong to want more than a folk song”
Underneath the shaker knit,
He’s a brick wall,
She keep fallin’ for the trick,
Vegetariate sing-along,
Give a little kick,
With your fine thigh high,
*Doo-doo-do-do-do* *Ba ba, ba ba ba ba*
*Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh*
*Doo-doo-doo, We’re on to you*
Tearin’ her down,
Talkin’ her down,
Under your breath,
Makin’ a mess,
See she is happy you wanna break it
*Doo-doo-doo* we’re on to you
Your bathing suit,
Borrowed guitar,
Tellin’ her what to think we are,
You the number one
Wet blanket,
You’re still around I wonder why,
You’re still around I wonder why,
You the number one wet blanket.
Bad seeds come and go for which you must allow
Sick down to my heart that’s just the way it goes”
Collect Call:
If the fire’s out baby, How you gonna keep me warm?
Supposing you let me, with the door wide open no one can leave
I know its a lie, I want it to be true
The rest of the ride is riding on you
Over goodbyes we’ll buy some place
For wishing you could
Keep me closer, I’m a lazy dancer, when you move I move with you
Keep me closer, I’m a lazy dancer, when you move I move with you
If somebody’s got soul…You’ve got to make them move
I know it’s a lie, I want it to be true
The rest of the ride is riding on you
Over goodbyes we’ll buy some place
For wishing you could
Keep me closer, I’m a lazy dancer, when you move I move with you
Keep me closer, I’m a lazy dancer, when you move I move with you
