Let Yr Art Talk!

Bring yr camera, yr zoom lens
The ones that you stole from school
Call it a draw, call it interest
Pleased to meet you, such fast friends
Round the fountain, the pavement
Call it a small talk, call it meaningless
Yr darkroom is the darkness of yr life
And you know well no one else can make it right
Depth of field and the depth you feel at the core
And everyone you meet seems a painful bore
Composition and balance
Still you can’t compose yourself
Let yr art talk! Ain’t that what it’s for?
Watch them try to make you care, but you won’t care
Warning bells, security, don’t mean nothing don’t they?
If they don’t love you, you can’t make them love you
So what’s the point? Was it all a waste of time?
Bring yr camera, yr zoom lens
The ones that you stole from school
Let yr heart talk! Ain’t that what it’s for?

Tiny Love

Dance around in circles while I can
Take another picture, hold my hand
Sitting outside of the corner shop
Staring at you but trying to stop
Running up and down another store
Didn’t tell you that I wanted more
But how could I when you talk like that?
Said I liked you and you left me flat
And you took it all away
That’s why I’m here today
Tiny love don’t need to think
Tiny love don’t mean a thing
Had your laugh and yes you’ve had your fun
Now I kinda wish that you were gone
Though it might sound awfully naive
How can I move on if you won’t leave?
And you took it all away
That’s why I’m here today
Tiny love don’t need to think
Tiny love don’t mean a thing
And you gave it all to him
All the things that I wanted
Tiny love feels like a curse
Tiny love it kinda hurts
It kinda hurts

Graduation Gown

The hard cement downtown never grew to be good enough to sleep
Your graduation gown couldn’t stand for all the things that you would be
You can never guess some things
The freezing winter nights never proved to be quite as cold as you
Don’t mean to put you down and I’m quite aware I’m mostly my fault too
(What could you do? I put all the blame on you)
You should never trust some things
Float or fall / Return investment isn’t guaranteed
All in all / Could be worse, you could have been with me
The moonlight in your eyes will never seize to tear my soul apart
And if you always knew you could easily have told me from the start
Have a heart, it didn't have to get this far
I guess you never know some things
Float or fall / There's nothing left is that your fault or mine?
All in all / Could be much worse than just wasted time
Float or fall / Guess I'm too sensitive, it's quite alright, yes, sometimes people have a change of heart
All in all / Toss your ambitions and your flowers in the air, I gave all I could give, let me live, all around you

I lay awake at night and think
Over cigarettes and magazines
Nothing's quite like what it seems
I'm too dumb and bleak to see
I'm too stupid to resist
It's been three weeks since I can sleep
A little secret I can't keep
She can't stand me anymore
I'm too dumb and bleak to keep
I'm too stupid to sit still
And I see her
I can see her in my dreams
And I see her
When I want to be alone
I lay awake at night and drink
Over cigarettes and magazines
Nothing's ever like it seems
I'm too dumb and bleak to see
I'm too stupid to resist
It's been three weeks since I can think
A little secret I'm supposed keep
She can't stand me anymore
I'm too dumb and bleak to keep
I'm too stupid to sit still
And I see her
I can see her in my dreams
And I see her
When I want to be alone
You know it's bad but it's not her fault
You know it's bad but it's never her fault but mine
And I see her
I can see her in my dreams
And I see her
When I want to be alone

Girl you know I want you
but those other boys, they want you too
And I know I'll never hold your hand
But I still dream at night
Try to take it slow
Try to find the right words to tell you
Jealousy is such an ugly deal
But they way they look at you with those eyes
Makes me want to die
I know you're taking it all in
Happiness is such a cruel thing
Only those who get it get it right
And honey, you got it tonight
I swear, you got me too
Girl, you're like a poem or a song
You're stuck in my head all day
You're beauty and grace personified
And it's all okay
Try to take it in
Try to make it last forever
Animosity's an ugly deal
But they way they look at you with those eyes
Makes me want to die
I know you're taking it all in
Loneliness is a blessing in a curse
And I think about you all the time
Hold you nearest to my heart
I swear, it's not a thing
I swear, it's just a fling
