I wish I was like you so certainly without a clue I would even make up some things that aren't true I would give the advice that I want to the ones I always taunt I guess that woud just mean I don't need you

Hello 03:25
You love the crudeness of the streets I wonder what you're like behind the sheets i wonder if your life is for rock n roll or if you just want become the the next nico Theres no reason to be scared you dont need the help or the pills Dont be nervous and have no fear I always come visit you my dear I wonder where you are at night In the allys of the underworld looking for your life The slums and mud are your home Hello Underground here I come Pay no attention to what they say or is that what you for you pray Lets put on iggy, keith and lou And listen to track 11 rock suicide

Honey Toast 02:34
Butterflies and bumble bees they'll all be singing tulips and magnolias they'll all be dancing they just dont know what they're awaiting maybe its the winter maybe its the snow they dont know what they waiting for maybe its the end maybe its the end (of their lives) Lollipops and sweets dont do they remind me about suicidal tendencies that Ive been seeing they just dont know what they're awaiting maybe its the winter maybe its the snow they dont know what they waiting for maybe its the end maybe its the end (of their lives) Hand over the bottle I just cant take it Get me out of this dream I wont make it I just wasnt prepared I never waited ohh ohhh ohhhh ohhhhhhhhhhhhh
8.
When I think I'm kind of glad I guess I know I'm actually sad But its all up to me No need to fake it now feel the pain you disallow But its all up to me Deal with it make up your mind and sit with ease love, pain, drinks all the works But its all up to me

Loren James 02:04
Loren James was scared so she bit her nails off and then regretted it Oh so worried she thought the ghosts would get her now oh, oh, oh she thought the ghosts would get her now Little did she know oh it was the ghost of her ex boyfriend she was so scared though that he would recognize her and then attack oh, oh, oh she thought the ghosts would get her now but even after death he didnt want her back back, didnt want her back if you can say, he sort died of a heart attack he was always honest to her in her eyes love is a blur and now, when she got older she realized that she wrong about the guy who lived her building where he sprong so fed up, she took out her ouija board to ask him if he loved her still there was no answer but who believes in ghosts anyway
11.
When you think you're on a mountain So high and tall and fresh Look down and realize it will passs You wake up with your new husband Or others and the like Lay down and think that you missed the best thing in your life it will pass, it will pass You're without your own true love And just slowly wait for death Shortly before you pull the trigger it will pass When you think you're full of joy Or when you think you're not in any situation it will pass it will pass, it will pass
12.
Now that my past love starts to fade I find myself without a muse how cynical can I be I know you dont want to be with me I still have your photographs with me remind me daily of what could be The pictures on the wall are so still I wish you were around, oh I wish you around But actually here with me Or just anywhere you want to be, all long as its with me They are so colored and vidid as we once were In time they fade, in time the might fade Looking to take new pictures of someone like her But its not easy to find, might never be found The pictures on the wall are so still I wish you were around, oh I wish you around But actually here with me Or just anywhere you want to be, all long as its with me Ill learn to be on my own, I need to learn on my own Everything on my own, die alone
13.
she reminds me of flowers shining in the sun she smiles like no one when all dull she is fun they are there in the field so bright and free they are so humble and know they could be a tree and when the leafs turn dry the seeds will fall they will spread around and sprout and the ones big and tall all from the flower thats ours there they are outside pretty and so fine they are just standing around naked you'd think that their out of the mind she is loud when she wants to and quiet when she dares she is free like no one and that makes most cry tears and when the leafs turn die the seeds will fall they will spread around and sprout and the ones big and tall from the horizontal flower thats misguided and miss "so confused" she wants more to life than there is the choose she tries to help but falls on her back and gets right back up but to give a pat on the back she is more than advanced that makes people misunderstand, time is today and not to fear you have to think freedome is here and is to come even when no hope is near always reminds me of you are what you live and the choices youve made today

15.
its time to vanish im ready to stay im sorry but we're going away there are so many things to say and do yes there is but mainly you im ready to fade away I know just what ill do I be less like me and more like you
16.
We'll be ok Give it some time I'll never be ok because you're always on my mind I'll meet your new friends and pretend everything fine I'll go out to lunch and not know a line I'll sing these songs to you and hope you get the clue Only time will tell If I'll be in heaven or hell Simple chords for this complex mind How can I lose it if its not mine Youll sing me a buarque rhyme And never will be mine
17.
Please, give me something to live for Not something to die Let me take a rest and easen up my mind Take me to the beach and stay all day at shore and watch the tides go up and fall back in some more Its not the sun going down but the world turning around Thank you for all of your help, I guess Im on my own Its my takig of the world and there shouldnt be to morn Why dont we go to bed and rest our sleepy heads and wake up in the morning, laughing at ourselves
