New Year's Plea (demo)

Got a dead tooth
A mound of debt too
Got addicted to
Playing keep away
With my beliefs in May
Maybe in June
Huh
Got a bum leg (I know)
Gotta bum cigs (I know)
Kinda bummed I missed
All those cornerstones
Lined up like quarter notes
Though I can hold my own
Down at the river's edge
Was it that important I show
I'm a living legend
No
Got a bad ear
Since I been back here
Drowning out my tears
Only drunken ones
Know where I'm coming from
Then gimme a year
Got some thick skin
And I think I could fix this
If you showed me how you know right now
That you've never been happier
You can throw me out but show me how
You know you've never been happier
How've you never been happier
Have I ever been happier
Have I never been happy or
Have I ever been happy
Oh

Lost and alone
In the place I call home
I been trying so hard for you
You could call this an ode
To a girl I've never known
I been trying so hard for you
But it don't mean nothing now
So she wants to go to parties, does she
Then I refuse to change
When something's wrong in the background of my brain
Kicked like a stone
From the day I was born
I been trying so hard for you
But it don't mean nothing now

Silver Rings (demo)
03:47
|
|||
From the summit comes
A vision of great size
To rule the fool, the shrewd
The little babe alike
The story told unfolds
In modern time
I've gleaned the pleasure in not questioning
The sweet, unfettered wait for better things
Saving your silver rings
What hope brings
Some expunge the brunt
Of horror from their lives
Others go alone
Exploring their insides
I've dreamed the reverie of the infidels
Sleek and steady as a carousel
Drunk at the wishing well
There's something here
That they don't care to know
It ain't your bad news to break, kid
If you've got the blues, you fake it
That's your role
Wrote long ago
So long ago
I took you in
I never wanted it to end
Or was I hoping, when I was awoken
That you'd lead me by the hand
And now the sun is coming back
And I don't know where I'm at again
I've peeled the layers of my public self
Revealed my maker for this show and tell
Oh, if you knew me well
You'd know there's something here
That you don't want to know
