lyrics

hope song '98
a night at the movies
tears
the questionless answer
the sentence
disconnected
something about electrons
meme
that blues song
a different squirrel
karie ann
brx-528
farewell to all

hope song '98

i can see it in your eyes
you're never gonna' realize
you look at me and i look through you
you act as if you never knew

as my world falls apart
brick by brick, i knew it from the start
i'm face down on the ground
fallen down, i've fallen down

i can see the sun rising
a new day begins
the soft spring rain falls
washing away my sins
running from inhibition
like a man on a mission
vindicated from sorrow
i see a bright new tommorow (i'll be a better man tommorow)

i gaze a forbidden stare
i call but noone's there
now that we've come to and end
i search for all my friends

i've left them all behind
i didn't have the time
no, i didn't have the time
now noone's there
and noone cares
this just isn't fair
no, it's just not fair


a night at the movies

a misunderstood boy
sits in a darkened room
searching for the light

only in dreams

then comes a spark
from the dark
but will a fire ignite?

it seemed so simple
and it seemed so easy
but life isn't like it is in the movies
it seemed so simple
and it seemed so easy

a sparkle of light
held in mid-air
he wants to start the fire

reality is becoming clear

can he leave
the darkness behind?
it's always been there
it's always been there


tears

stand and make their plans
never ask me to come along
sitting on the outside
i'm sitting all alone
they all walk by
never noticing the tears in my eyes (never noticing)

tears, tears
tears from my eyes (tears)

do you realize
what you put my through (what you do)
i'm so sorry
i couldn't be just like you
and if you were left alone
what would you do?

tears, tears
tears from my eyes (tears)


the questionless answer

this is the first day
of the rest of your life
and now you don't know what to do
everything you've worked for
all all that you've done
all lies behind you

things can only get better from here
so, let go, and abandon all fears

let it all go - let it fade away (let it go)
let the past end - let it end today
look up to the sky - don't wonder why (don't wonder why)
there's no answer anyway!

you've spent so long running from
what you thought was wrong
now you don't even know
what's right anymore
so many choices -- so many paths
this could be your darkest hour

throw the past to the wind
time for your life to begin

the sentence

i lay down to sleep
for a short while
a coldness comes over me
i'm lonely, in denial

friday afternoon
all my work is done
the rains clouds are
blocking away the sun

before i slip gently off to sleep
i need you here
it's been such a long time
i'm paying the price for my crimes

i wake up everyday and
open up my eyes to let the sun in
a cruel joke of god
just to keep us going

i know we
will be together again
the patience of love
never ends


disconnected

coldness, distance, you're too busy
my head is spinning, i'm feeling dizzy
i can't think with my groggy head
maybe i'll just go back to bed
you are red and i am blue
how i wish i could talk to you
the silence closes all around
i scream just to hear a sound

disconnected .. you're so far away
no messages in my system tray
disconnected .. a system of one
i am feeling so withdrawn
disconnected .. the network's down
left to face reality now
disconnected .. i'm all alone
a useless life and a silent phone

some say that i'm a fool for love
maybe it's true, but i don't care
the choice is simple in my eyes
passion and pain, or a blank stare
my desperation increases fast
with every minute that slips past
i'm feeling sick, i'm losing ground
i try to scream but there's no sound


something about electrons

a system of seductions
a seductive sentiment
a sentiment of sympathy
i was sympathetic to our entropy

the solace of solitude
so much simpler without you
an outcome of only memory
solipsism and redundancy

a seed of chaos falls across my path
the solution that defies the math
so distant and unnatural
electrons representing a soul

a syncronous, autonomous interaction
i can't stop this chain reaction
distance means nothing to my heart
you've been close from the start


meme

hello everyone, i've come to say
what i think about the world today
in this most recent age of man
the tooth and the claw bow before the pen
its so bizzare, this situation
we're all ruled by information
do this and don't do that
hey man! i just want to relax!

blue skys fly and blue skys flow
it's never the same, it's never different
what goes around no one knows
and no one knows what no one knows!

it's a travesty of etymology
to think these words mean anything!
it's a game of masquerades
it's a game that no one plays
some say that it's evolution
some say that they've got the solution
i don't want to hear your explainations
god damn it! i just want a vaction


that blues song

been down so long
seems like up to me
cause i've never been
up enough to see...
all we got 'round here, is whisky and tears

whisky done run out
now i gotta drink beer
if jesus ever came back to earth
i'm sure he wouldn't come here
and oh god i could sure use a miracle now

i'd go out and get me a job
if i only knew how..
my dumb dog got sat on
by the neighbors cow
and if i'd ever had a wife i'm sure she'da left me by now

i went to the doctor
told him i was sick of life
told him bout the whiskey, told him bout my dog
and my lack of wife
the doctor said "son, it looks like blues to me. "


a different squirrel

someone like you could be
perfect for someone like me
and if this were a different world
maybe that could be
the laws of physics change
the planets rearrange
i'm in a different world
when you are near

i give you my thoughts
i give you my soul
i give you all my time
darling, i'll never let you go
and all that i've learned
and all that i've burned
it all means nothing
in the face of you

now if you've got the time
if you've got nothing planned
if you're so inclined
to let me take your hand
together we can change the world
if only for you and me
but, oh baby! that's all the change
that i need to see


karie ann

she sits at the bar
crying into her drink
smoke fills the crowded room
she hides away

karie ann, what was your master plan?
and how did it go wrong?
how did it go wrong this time?
karie ann, she gave her heart to a man
and now she won't let it go
why can't you just let it go this time?

i ask her for her thoughts
she gives me her mind
she holds me close
the only solace she can find

carry on, karie ann.


brx-528

brx-528, her equations do not equate
brx-528, something to comtemplate
brx-528, this was her last complaint
brx-528, she said it is much too late

brx-528, just a number i got from the state
brx-528, just the numebr on my license plate

brx-528, she said she was quite irrate
brx-528, she said this is our last date
brx-528, she said i just can't wait
brx-528, she said you are much to late


farewell to all

well i guess my life is pointless
and things just aren't so grand
my left me for elvez
she took all of her pans
i just can't cook food now
all the corn is rotting fast
last night i ate beans
and you should smell the gas

i think this all is silly
this whole meaning of life
noone understands power
until you beat your wife
but when she runs away
you realize you're wrong
and when it all seems pointless
you write some stupid song

farewell to all
i think i'm going to die
my tractor broke down now
and i just want to fly tonight..
