Weight

A simple day dream
Has got me thinking aloud
About the state of things
About the weight of me

How I'm hated
Beloved
Fornicated but full of God
How I'm hasty
But lazy
Caring for nothing
Still worrying to much
And I'm jaded, elated, busted but good

It hits the same way
The seventh time around
Why do I relive these things
Why can't I forgive me

For being hated
Beloved
Fornicated but full of God
How I'm hasty
But lazy
Caring for nothing
Still worrying to much
And I'm jaded, elated, busted but good

I'm hated
Beloved
Fornicated but full of God
And I'm hasty
But lazy
Caring for nothing
Still worrying to much
And I'm jaded, elated, busted but good

Dirty Business

Well it's a dirty business
They don't calling falling by mistake
How does it always get so twisted
You can cross the line from love to hate
In a day

Oh my honey how high are your hopes
Let me the one to bring you down
Baby buy from me a lie that I believe
Let me be the one to bring you down
Yeah, Come on

They say home is where the heart is
We can buy home and fill it up
We'll see each other everyday then
With no more absence left for us
Times will get tough

So oh my honey how high are your hopes
Let me the one to bring you down
Baby buy from me a lie that I believe
Let me be the one to bring you down
Yeah, Come on

You got to know how much you want it
Know if your wants can bend
I hope you're not looking for a fairy tale here
Because if you are then know
You're missing the point
And we're failed from the start

Oh my honey how high are your hopes
Let me the one to bring you down
Baby buy from me a lie that I believe
Let me be the one to bring you down
Yeah, Come on

All I'm saying is
You got to love the one your with
For who they are not who they may become
Behind the faded makeup
Matted hair and morning breath
Behind the jaded sense of humor fading
Libidoless mess
Lies the one you said you'd always love
Is this what you once dreamed of

Oh my honey how high are your hopes
Let me the one to bring you down
Baby buy from me a lie that I believe
Let me be the one to bring you down
Let me be the one to watch you fall down
Yeah, Come on

Squeaky Wheel

Come on
You squeaky wheel
I know
You got to get your feel
But tell me
Where did you get the right to lie
To all the ones that ought to hide you
Now I know the way to rise with you
Tell no truth

I could rise as high as you have
But see you have all the nerve
To sell your hate as faith
Your misery as grace
And the fear you always spread
Is running rampant through the heads
Of those who only hear
Your slanted point of view
So tell me who is right
So tell me who is wrong
Then tell me
Who will never be the same again

Come on
We got a chance to move along
I know
The changed is harder than the known
But tell me
Where can we hope to find ourselves
When all we do is fight ourselves
And now we got this man here on the news
Telling absolutely no truth

I could rise as high as he has
But see he has all the nerve
To sell his hate as faith
His misery as grace
And the fear he always spreads
Is running rampant through the heads
Of those who only hear
His slanted point of view
So tell me who is right
So tell me who is wrong
Then tell me
Who will never be the same again

So tell me who is right
So tell me who is wrong
Then tell me
Who will never be the same again

Daisy

Daisy came and cut me down
She said
I know who you've been with
She said it's war that brought her here
And no one is innocent

We are just farmers I said
Are children they aren't even grown
That's not the point you're alive she said
And the ones who sent me won't have that

That's heartless
More than I've ever seen
Tell me is it human
To take whatever you think you need
Does it matter who
Does it matter if you kill

You could live on a mountain top
And say that you don't enjoy the view
With an ocean of truth in front of you
Tell me that you never knew
Wake up
Open your eyes
Wake up
Open your eyes

That's heartless
That's heartless
That's heartless
More than I've ever seen
Tell me is it human
To take whatever you think you need
Does it matter who
Does it matter if you kill

Daisy came and cut me down
She said
I know who you've been with
She said it's war that brought her here
And no one is innocent

Eden Love

Your soul is dying here now see
Clean up your heart
Don't deny it
Senses are dying here
You didn't know what's good
Didn't know what's good
The sun has come out over
The sun has come out over now
Crawl out of it

You said you're in for life but now
I've got this Eden love
You said you'd die for it oh now
I'm covered up in lust and doubt

Something tells me
That you'd listen to the dog
If he told you what you want
But something else is going on here
You don't know what you want
And you don't know love
The sun has come out over
The sun has come out over now
Crawl out of it

You said you're in for life but now
I've got this Eden love
You said you'd die for it oh now
I'm covered up in lust and doubt
You said you're in for life but now
I've got this Eden love
You said you'd die for it oh now
I'm covered up in lust and doubt

Son of the Winter

Summer waters don't call to me
The violent winter is a crazy beast
Tackle the time some
I'm trying to beat is it's just
Time is it's harshest
When your heart is not beating

Some winter trees are calling out to me
These tall winter trees are calling down to me

Son of the winter
His days have passed away
Slept all of the time in that summer breeze
Son of the winter
He has walked too far now
There in the cold his heart's turned to stone

Winter arrives now
Sadly one soul will always say
That he can rely on the little he has made
With winter comes darkness
When darkness protrudes
We all get weaker and our best may lose

Some winter trees are calling out to me
These tall winter trees are calling down to me

Son of the winter
His days have passed away
Slept all of the time in that summer breeze
Son of the winter
He has walked too far now
There in the cold his heart's turned to stone

A heart in the cold too long
Will wither up inside
Over life we can grow
Bitter and tired
Too much time all alone
And we forget how to love

Son of the winter
His days have passed away
Slept all of the time in that summer breeze
Son of the winter
He has walked too far now
There in the cold his heart's turned to stone

Leave It Here

Why do I shut my mouth
Why can't I let it out
I know Ive got something
But I don't know why
Why does love hurt more than you
How can I feel like the only loser
I know I'm watching you
But I don't know why

You gave me light through your darkness
Don't give in to the feeling of your heart sinking here
You got it harder than I did
Don't give in
Just let your heart omit it
Leave it here

Why did I spell it out
That's not how I felt about this
I know you needed more than just my words
Even though it feels like it's all gone wrong
And you're feeling all disowned
Know you've got to believe
That you can leave these things here

You gave me light through your darkness
Don't give in to the feeling of your heart sinking here
You got it harder than I did
Don't give in
Just let your heart omit it
Leave it here
