cut my face
cut my face into slices with the ceiling fan
when i hold my head up to the light
& the light takes me all different places
as my head spins round & round
i'm on the surface of the sun
& i wake up on the shore
these carpeted beaches
& i'm looking on the brightside of it
trying to make something from it
but i'm stuck in reality
nowhere else to go

everwonder

do you everwonder?
we keep this secret close
away from the world you know
we lead peaceful lives
our hidden paradise
walk down the village path
greetings from all you pass
though we traverse nearby
home is where our hearts lie
our tiny playful hands
make circles in the sand
and oh we come and go
we're there you'll never know
but someone knew
a friend in you
someone big & tall
we miss when you would come around
we hope our words are found
do you everwonder 'bout us all beneath the waterfall?
do you everwonder 'bout us all beneath the waterfall?
do you ever even wonder 'bout us all beneath the waterfall?
do you really everwonder 'bout us all beneath the waterfall?

evergreene

|

when i hold you everything will be greene
the day i hold you the sky will be pristine
the grass is greener on this side of the sea
the grass is greener here
won't you stay with me?
& i know it's hard to feel like you've got it together
& i know it's hard but we'll make it through any weather
& i know it's hard but i'll be your evergreene

we tend to wander
03:19
|
|||
wandering endlessly
pass the time aimlessly
find a grave to dig myself into
do you think it's always gonna be this way?
i feel like it hasn't always been this way before?
don't make me leave my home
let me spend just one day alone
i need to reset
i need to feel like my life is going towards something worthwhile
something that will make someone smile
all this stress ever does is stop me in my tracks
i never can do what i love because the anxiety came back
i have no clue what to do & end up wasting all my time
time i could've used to make a positive change in my life

newleaf
03:19
|

from now on when we go home
we'll walk together, not alone
we were born to live a dream
not to sink ourselves further into the sea
within a dream
i can see myself floating so magically
from now on when we roam
travel in pairs, not solo
these demon days don't go as planned
protect yourself from the dangerous man
i don't want you to lose so soon
i don't want you to go through what i had to go through
when i'm with you
i can see ourselves alive in a magic hue
stand with me
& be who you wanna be
stand with me
& turn over a newleaf
stand with me
& take your destiny by the hand
through ocean waves & white hot sand
stand with me
& take your destiny by the hand
don't let me go

your greed got us into this mess
the rest of us suffer for it
you say you got rich by working hard
avoiding taxes must be so damn hard
"if you take more then i won't have any"
we all know that isn't true
"if you take more then i won't have any"
oh boo hoo poor poor you
'cause there's nomoney, nomoney
'cause you took all the money in the world
hoard your wealth like a dragon
but dragons were made for slaying
that may seem a bit harsh to say
but you are gonna let the rest of us die anyway
'cause there's nomoney, nomoney
'cause you took all the money in the world

reallife
02:34
|

it all started back in 1966
when paul mccartney died in a car crash
that's when they knew that we were onto them
so they took to the media
& they made us look crazy
but our only crime was knowing what they didn't want us to know
& when they faked the moon landing
oh they fooled every one of you but not those of us in the know
this is reallife
these are crazy times
& it's so good to be alive right now
this is reallife
these are crazy times
& it's so fun to be alive right now
you won't be laughing
when the nazis come down from their moonbase
& all of their laser beams
hit you right in your stupid face
you should've bought one of my tin-foiled hats
to reflect the lasers right back
& set their spaceships ablaze with their own firepower
fire of glory
but it's not the end of the story or the end of the war
don't you know what we're fighting for?
world leaders shed their skins
reptiles within
this is just how it begins
this is reallife
these are crazy times
& it's so great to be alive right now
this is reallife
these are crazy times
& it's so fun to be alive right now
you'll wish that you were safe & sound
in my bunker underground
i've got a tunnel to agartha & i'll kick you down like sparta
if you get in my way
i could've saved the day if you had listened to me
farewell boys & girls
now it's the end of the world

walking in the sea my silhouette
doesn't catch any breath
in a dream, in a dream, out of a dream
planting olive seeds on the coast
they all grow & they sing
in a dream, in a dream, out of a dream
swimming through the sky my shadow's host
doesn't break any bones
in a dream, in a dream, out of a dream
cultivating eggs for my birds
these are all funny words
in a dream, in a dream, out of a dream
strolling down the roads of rome
grapevines & ivy taking over it
all the soldiers come marching down for war
is that blood or grape juice lying stagnant on the floor?
whatever you do, don't visit rome in killing season
they'll shoot your gardens like they did mine
singing happy & carefree
don't think this is reality
oh no
don't wake up, let me stay
i am having a better day
than i will when i awake
in a dream/out of a dream

you're the king
02:36
|
|||
you're the king now
you can rule however you wanna rule
you can kill whoever you wanna kill
& your decree will shape the years to pass
you're so special
you are so much better than everyone
that's why they deserve to be treated like mud
peasants under your shoes, groveling beneath you
"long live the king!" chants the crowds en masse
& if they didn't you would burn their homes to the ground
after all it's a privilege to be alive on the same planet as you
after all you've done for them they still revolt against you
open the castle gates, lie in wait to kill them when they come through
ungrateful for the fact that you allowed them to keep breathing
doesn't that just make your blood boil and leave you seething?
when the knighthood at your guard
clashes with civilian arms
your kingdom is reduced to a puddle of blood
but you are still the king

if you throw me a penny
i'll make your wildest dreams come true
for only a little money
i'll bring out the kid in you
oh you just need to believe
oh put your faith in me

i don't wanna wake up if it's gonna take away my energy
i don't wanna wake up in the morning all i wanna do is sleep
i spent myself yesterday but my alarm clock starts to ring
& i gotta go to work just to come back home & sleep & rinse, repeat
push it & take it to the limit
give it all you can give it
strain yourself to the point of no return
bleed out, work until you break down
another mental breakdown
when i get home i'm too tired to (insert your hobby here)
on my time off i wanna seize the day
but why is waking up so hard?
i wanna doze off & come what may
dreams are easy life is hard

i don't wanna be a human i just wanna be
manufactured in the 21st century
i just wanna let every slum-dog billionare
in every corporation walk all over me
all i wanna eat is fast food under golden arches
all i wanna see is censored media that's all i'm watching
i wanna be a bootlicker-asskisser
for a company that doesn't care about me
what's the point of living if you aren't moving
money around in this drained economy?
a production line of human beings
how it feels sometimes
going through the motions
just like everyone
in our hamster wheels

let your dogs inside
01:51
|
|||
i don't know where i went wrong
all i know is i don't belong here
take me inside, tell me it's alright
in my doghouse on a stormy night
the wind is howling & the lightning strikes
keep me inside, kiss me goodnight
sometimes i wonder if you care about me
when you picked me out i was happy
i thought i finally had a home to call my own
i really wish you'd let your dogs inside
you know you really oughtta let your dogs inside
you know you shouldn't leave them outside in the rain
just give them a comfy place
make them part of your family

lookin' aroun'
01:30
|

i ain't lookin' down
i'm lookin' aroun'
to see what i foun'
ain't no particular reason
i'm looking for a change of season
always taking & never giving
ain't that the cost of livin'
& when i lose my way
i break down over the simplest things
& now i've lost my way
i'm tryin' to do better but it still stings
i ain't lookin' down
i'm lookin' aroun'
to see what i foun'

(i've been waiting for you for a long time)
i swear it wasn't me who shut you down that day
who locked your mind away into obscurity
greatest thing i ever made & they took you away from me
'cause they were afraid of me & the weapon i made
you mean so much more to me than your destructive capabilities
(when can i come home?)
i swear i won't rest until the day that you're back home with me
i am so alone)
i think of you as my robot daughter
(free me from this place)
do you think of me as your human father?
(give me another chance to be someone new)

birdwatcher

i've been watching you for the longest time
can't get you out my mind
i followed you home & throughout the day
hope you don't notice me
do you think it's possible to fall in love from afar?
i think i've fallen for you here in this national park
& i'm a birdwatcher & i am gonna watch ya
do your little bird thing like it ain't no thang
yeah they call me the bridwatcher (watcher watcher watcher)
i see you through binoculaurs (i see you see you see you)
all this time i've spent getting to know you
i watched you build your nest & i'll watch you living in it too
someday i'll publish the pictures i take
& everyone will see your beauty
everyone will see your glory
pictures of you flying high against a clear blue sky
i got your good side & that's not all the pics i have
got pics of you in the bath
what could possibly be greater than getting nurtured into nature?
i feel at peace with all the birds
i am the world's greatest birdwatcher yeah

am i a dreamer or am i a kid?
you don't have to answer 'cause i already know
it won't change a thing
the waves lap over the edge & they fall
but i still want to swim in the dark empty space
that they leave behind
keep yourself afloat
don't drop your head below
the surface is safe but the deep is not
i try to swim away but the ocean floor grows closer
everyday
should i embrace you or should i fear you?
'cause i don't think that the ocean tide
is slowing, i can't make up my mind
(oh, you)
oh what will i do?
(oh, you)
in the ocean blue

it doesn't matter how, it doesn't matter how
long we spend living in each other's dreams
it doesn't matter how, it doesn't matter how
long i spend picturing the other me
yours is the only kind of reason i have to believe in
yours is the only kind of nonsense that makes sense
in this escapist reality
it doesn't matter how, it doesn't matter how
long we spend envying each other's dreams
it doesn't matter how, it doesn't matter how
long my head takes to burst out at the seams
blood on the walls & on the floorboards when i'm bored
living life as me
wouldn't it be so much simpler just to
fall asleep & dream
take me away to a secret place
i don't wanna be here anymore
take me away to a better place
i don't wanna live this way
let me inside by the fireside
i'll feel right at home here in your head
i'll spend the night & tomorrow night
again & again & again
give me your life, you can have mine
i like yours so much better it's fine
i'm sure you can make something out of my mess
take me away to a secret place
i don't wanna be here anymore
take me away to a better place
i don't wanna live this way
take me away to your secret place
i don't wanna be me anymore
take me away to your place
i don't wanna live this way
i may not have always stayed happy
but at least i kept my promise to try

o princess you are falling through the sky
& i wonder
when will i catch you in my arms?
we'll look up at the stars & and find eternal life
where we'll spend all time on distant plains
in outer space
when you arrive, we'll wave the world goodbye
