The sun is here, there is no fear Of what’s outside your window and door So take it in with a grin And find the things to ignore But all I see is the green and black Now I’ve found that there’s no turning back Waste away just to pass the day And mull over all of the things that I’d say The sky is blue, no more to do Than take it all in stride You’re here today, no more to say No use in going away to hide And all I see are the blues and the grays Now I’ve found that there’s nowhere to stay Finding ways to displace the urge Harmonies all sink into a dirge Your eyes are red, you’re filled with dread A moment feels like eternity Just give it time and you will find No glass always stays empty But all I see is the green and black Now I’ve found that there’s no turning back Waste away just to pass the day And mull over all of the things that I’d say And there’s no use writing letters that you’ll never send And there’s no use collecting tunes that remind you of them Memories of different days When you drive down memory lane I hope I’ve got some real estate Memories a distant haze And all I see are the blues and the grays Now I’ve found that there’s nowhere to stay Finding ways to displace the urge Harmonies all sink into a dirge

Technicolor 07:48
House falls down Spins you out undrowned Through the room round Dark voices flicker from the hush Technicolor one of us What you don’t see behind the scenes Reality, a memory What you don’t see behind the green Outside a dream, ephemerae What you don’t see behind the scenes Reality, a memory What you don’t see behind is waiting You’re not as alone as you think you are What you don’t see behind the scenes Reality, a memory What you don’t see behind the green Outside a dream, ephemerae What you don’t see behind the scenes Reality, a memory What you don’t see behind is waiting House falls down Spins you out undrowned Through the room round Dark voices flicker from the hush Technicolor one of us See you in the crystal, see you in the sky Snow your fields of poppies and melt the fire Forever plan to try, break down in time You’re not as alone as you think you are House falls down, spin undrowned Through the room, flicker from the hush Technicolor one of us

Silver 04:15
And when the party was over The ground emulsified what was left Leaving nothing but some shade And when we parted ways Bowie’s “Heroes” played Oh, I didn’t feel too strong On that day

October 05:31
Let your mind wander and drift around Twiddle thumbs until your next breakdown Don’t you know that it’s all in your head? Can’t you see make believe? Call it early and sleep in too late Drink at noon just to keep some weight Bide your time till you remember again But you can’t forget the name Take all that you can get Till you learn to regret And if you find you’ve got no peace of mind Give it time, give it time Take all that you can get Till you learn to regret And if you’re stuck, down on your luck Give it time, give it time

No more giving and waiting for the taking No more thinking it’ll all be worth it No more building the same glass towers Listening to the same words for hours and hours And you don’t think much of the glue until you see yourself without it And you don’t think much of what you said until the gun is held to your head Pick yourself up by your winged bootstraps And take to your own inferior flight And you don’t think much of the glue until you see yourself without it And you don’t think much of what you said until the gun is held to your head Pick yourself up by your winged bootstraps And take to your own inferior flight

Lincoln 10:08
Wake up angry and do it all over again Same shit every day Caught up in a loop Eject yourself and miss out on the fun Wallow, lash out Don’t burn the bridge you’ve built Sometimes you’ll find the world all moves too fast Catch your breath Sit it out and come back
