Hey, I've been stuck in the real world.
Hey, I've been stuck in the real world.
It's green on the other side.
Hey, I've been thinking of laying down.
Hey, I've been thinking of staying down
and giving up, I've had enough.
Sunday morning for my lovely,
Sunday evening for my girl.
You are so lovely when you smile
and you say the words, always lovely.
Sunday morning for my lovely,
Sunday evening for my girl.
Some days I feel lovely.

Good Intentions
04:58

Time has taken me for a ride.
Living youth is easy,
Giving youth is vain,
Kind, and distant.
Birds sing songs for free.
They're out of key and meant for me.
Innocence is easy,
Innocence is vain,
Innocence is ignorance,
You know, I know.
Thinking like a child,
Walking like a man,
I am full of good intentions.
My love was dumb and easy the first time.
Is love playing dumb forgiveness?
In a sense I'm crazy,
In a sense I'm sane,
In a sense I'm everything you want, I know.

Swimming After Bed

I go swimming after bed,
drowning my illusions with movement.
Drawing circles, counting heads,
keeping my abuses a secret.
There's nothing in this world I could do for you.
When something in my way comes in view
I'll stay on and on.
Don't keep me waiting,
love is weighing me down.
Leave my body on the road where you found a simple way to stay alive.
I'm a sinner when I think
of how I hurt my brother like all the others,
like a preacher when he blinks,
bleeding into numbers like a coward soldier.
There's nothing in this world I could do for you.
A letter, a simple phrase out of tune, in my name.
Don't keep me waiting,
love is weighing me down.
Dress me up in clothes that I know well
so when they bury me I look alive.

Pale Criminal

The sun, dead, I can see the moon
in the afternoon.
The sun fell, eyes burn, strange to see nothing.
But it's never the same to think on yesterday.
Come, speak again for me,
A flash made me believe I could be the one
to play the sun.
I try to sing, to speak on simple things.
Eat your double tongue, stay down.
Look there! A pale criminal.
She holds the knife and won't believe you're bleeding out.
The sun bled, oh to see the moon
in the afternoon.
But it's never the way she crawls out from the day.
Silver turns to ash in her mouth.
Look there at a pale criminal.
She holds the knife but won't believe you're bleeding.
What's there but dumb misery?
The love that like a heart it needs its beating.
It's all about everything.
Loving everything at once.
Nothing's said that ain't done.
Nothing matters under the sun,
so come inside and be done.

The Valley

I see God in the mountain,
I see God in the trees,
I see God in everything but me.
I sweep him into the chimney,
I brush him into my teeth,
I take him in with every breath I breathe.
I won't fear what comes, no, I won't fear at all.
Love, you know I won't be a slave to doubt anymore.
You can find me down in a hole.
What you said in your letter
left me down on the floor.
You said you see me as I want to be.
Call on me whenever you want.
I remain yours.
Love, you know I won't be a slave to doubt anymore.
You can find me down in a hole.
Love... slave... anymore.
You can find me down in a hole.
