Nowhere Fast

swinging monkey missed the vine
are you waiting for the perfect time
you never catch the one I throw
and when you do you let it go
we're getting nowhere fast
chasing after ghosts
now we can't get back
it's so unlike you not to care
you fill a room with your tragic air
and all your sympathetic drones
you gotta keep 'em hangin' on
we're getting nowhere fast
chasing after ghosts
now we can't get back

Over Time

the rock that lies still gets worn down over time
the one that breaks free gets rolled out with the tide
started out floating
the currents carry far
to keep it all rolling
is getting kinda hard
history travels or keeps us where we are
I'd rather be battered and scarred
jagged edges all or one straight side
treading waterfalls or one smooth ride

Solitary Spoils

yes I know I'm weary I've played this one before
a hundred times or more I've watched it all unfold
fair and sexy lovergirl; she grips my soul
saves me from my solitary spoils
it's not like I've never been here, you would think I'd learn
that even though I'm falling for you real hard
it's so wrong
unsung herald angels; we're paralyzed
deadly silent evasive in our eyes
there must be reasons why we look the other way
why we beat each other up to keep each other down
it's not like I've never been here, you would think I'd learn
that even though I'm falling for you real hard
it's so wrong
you found my private party, are you gonna crash the gates
save me from my solitary maze
it's not like I've never been here, you would think I'd learn
that even though I'm falling for you real hard
it's so wrong

Always Personal

my friend, you've been an anchor but you never weighed me down
I know I really owe you one so here's your happy song
A song about another place, a place that didn't last
A song about another time now i'll bring us back:
when we sat around with your guitars
number 9 dream and a man needs a maid
I really thought you were a superstar
12 strings, big leather strap, boots, and attitude
feeling magical
biological
maybe fictional
always personal
in the warm summer air all our senses were alive
wandering darkened streets or on the phone all night
we wanted anything everything brand new
just like those early pioneers sent searching for the truth
feeling magical
biological
maybe fictional
always personal
take the first right past the stone gate
i'll be outside
feeling magical
biological
maybe fictional
always personal
ah bowaka

de-mystify, analyzing, and explaining all the magic away
self-hypnotized and denying all the noise that we make
de-sensitized, criticizing, magnifying what a mess that we share
fully energized then deciding we get carried away
right - over - the - top
we'd get all magical, turn on the fog and the flashing lights
we'd strike a sonic pose then we climb all night and we get too high
then choose so many ways that are so wrong but they feel so right
and call them principles of the holy unsatisfied
