I've been higher than I want to go. When I notice the difference is when I'll truly know The bleaker the tint the better friction against the grain i feel There are truths in this world we must learn. Tell my brother it's useless to drink and wait your turn. and smarter he will be for all the fucking up I'm not done doing. Do yourself a favor and forget my name I'm sure that I will do the same constructing and directing such and intricate display how could anyone live that way. I was hoping waiting and wishing that when i woke up she'd be sleeping with the fishes I was hoping waiting and wishing that when I woke up she'd be sleeping with the fishes and not another man I could not stand not another man you have no idea whats good for me neither do your fucked up friend who got nothing nice to say bring it back to me this worlds not fit for living this worlds nit fit for living anymore. speak to each other like when your sleeping in bed leave bashfulness and shame out of it I just need texture i just need peacefulness to win. I got nothing you all don't have.

Sunglasses 03:56
Cheap thrills higher meaning on how we feel i do not think of expectations but not like you you're not here. Humidity you know that it affects me but I wont complain we all got that extra weight. you can only see me with your sunglasses on (sunglasses) fort superior lighting candles in a daydream to peal back these shadows cast like judgement on yourself but you can only see me with your sunglasses on no im not gonna say which road you should take = but can we please get on with the moving the slippery pens across the books that you fill in the sun across the sky the moon fills in the space into the night you can only see me with your sunglasses on

Morning Blue 04:08
I’m filling the lines scratched through your walls Trying to see, how we’ve grown through the nights You say we’re just an inch away From being old and in the way I’m filling the holes caught in your floors Trying to see how you’ve always got away What’s the worry if we’re leaving What’s the trouble being late. All we try to make you smile out to the morning Tell me how it feels sleeping on your side Roll over, face down in the dirt, with the pesticides And I’m not saying that we’re all filthy pigs I’m no prince charming, but you just fell for it All we try to make you smile out through the morning

There’s a wasteland no picture, just words on a page That teachers would tempt, from going insane We gave back the ol’ gift of formidable pain You wanted something different, you wanted me to change for you While the speakers told of love, and how it could be made No one told the dancers, the floor wasn’t safe. The bar, he said nothing but his boot kicked us out To the corner where T.S. sits, laughing about the youth. Leave me out stranded, beaten just for good. On these long island streets, I’d never seen before The end of a story, that’s really just a joke Cuz I spit back my teeth, underneath your own feet Just for you. I almost choked on that damn mint With my head down counting one’s and two She must believe in sin Ever since I jumped down that hole with you. It could be the different shapes of glass That makes us pretend with what we have Until there’s a past to flick away like ash A new smoke seems worth the drag.

Speakeasy 04:59
Speaking can be so easy when you know what to say I spent years picking it up putting it away and if we started out like this trying so hard to be optimists we would never change since whens emotion only baggage take your style points take your indifference I'm forgetting about the ins and outs the video plays their screaming out but I cant hear a sound dont try to act like your not selling us out dont act like thats what your all about there's too many reasons I'm freezing what for do you remember that feeling we were working on its called being young its called being young I cant help it I'm a sucker I'm a cynic life's a joke You wouldn't be useful if it wasn't for the people that you know Kill the silence, nobility never stood for a noble cause this is my country music, but you can call it whatever you want there"s too many reasons I'm freezing what for do you remember that feeling we were working on there's too many reasons I'm freezing what for do you remember that feeling we were working on its called being young its called being young

Heaven isn't sent it's earned by those who went so lets hope we go lets hope were not shallow is it true your judged by what you do is that what makes a man is it out of his hands your not the same as you used to be and it shows, your soul is hollow you will always regret loosing out to a man who is way less talented all we are is always just human its always just foolish all we are is always just human its always to blame you are not the same as you used to be and it shows your soul is hollow you will always regret loosing out to a man who is way less talented I didn't send for you in fact when everything was ok you were only hoping for the best you were only hoping for the best dont ever change dont ever change and the world is on my tail dont ever change dont ever change and the world is on my tail you are not the same as you used to be and it shows your soul is hollow you will always regret loosing out to a man who is way less talented. dont ever change dont ever change dont ever change dont ever change dont ever change dont ever change dont ever change dont ever change dont ever change dont ever change.....

If I were God, I’d quit No more how coulds or what ifs And just leave it to you Some other fool Pretend I’m a different man Hit the streets like a common hand But I won’t learn from you and earn every bruise Patience was the plan. Heard a boy recite his father’s life Made me thing of what’s yours and what’s mine But I missed what he said On a life just dead. Does it soothe to know that there’s no pain That the wrath just missed daddy’s brain Just tell them, “stay brave and live just the same” Teaching beyond a grade I don’t love you like I should.

The Washingtons Providence, Rhode Island

Call me Washington. I was born right around the time Jelly Roll Morton, one of the greatest New Orleans pianists, died. All the men in my family have been piano players. My grandfather was a monster . The doctors and patients of Anchora Mental Institution gave their favorite patient a standing ovation for entertaining them. "I think we're dreaming. That's what we're doing - dreaming. ... more
