Slouch down in my puke-orange chair and sighThe air is full of nerves and human cellsBeside me sits some awkward girl who liesFell half in love within the airport loungeCaptain says No smoking if we crash try not to dieFlying some preposterous amount of meters highThe lavatory has smoke alarms and lukewarm water and I can seeThe clouds outside stretched out to nowhere ribbed and textured easilySo aimless for so long I think I might have lost my wayIts far too late to talk about tomorrowThese are things I feel and things I think and try to sayStill waiting for the morning Im still waiting for todayWell try to make you see there is no wayAttempts at comprehension always missShe lays her body down and tries to say she tries to say she tries to sayThere is no answer to a kissThese people make me angry what is yours and what is mineTalk of shopping pure white noise abide by every Dont Walk signDinner at the restaurant so isnt very niceNineteen dollars and fifty cents for some tasteless chicken and wild riceSo aimless for so long I think I might have lost my wayIts far too late to talk about tomorrowThese are things I feel and things I think and try to sayStill waiting for the morning Im still waiting for todaySo aimless for so long I think I might have lost my wayIts far too late to talk about tomorrowThese are things I feel and things I think and try to sayStill waiting for the morning Im still waiting for today

Flying floating softly spinning swiftly through my dreamsAttempts are made and understanding what it really meansTrying to hold humanity in life got truly madExtenuating circumstances always make me sadAnd sadness is eternity I cannot tell you whyGenerally speaking all I wanna do is sighCigarettes and cups of coffee skies as clean as blueAll of this is anger this is pain but just for youHere is a happy song to burn the days awayHappy song to drown the bad todayHappy song it makes you wanna sayHappy song I almost feel okayCall myself a coward I defy all I believeI think of things beyond me things I never could conceiveLove and death and happiness something in your eyesIs telling me youre understanding all my lies are liesExpressing all this feeling is important for a whileWords are just disguises theres some meaning in your smileNo one seems to notice Im the only one to seeThat all of this is anger this is pain but just for meHere is a happy song to burn the days awayHappy song to drown the bad todayHappy song it makes you wanna sayHappy song I almost feel okayWell on my way to feeling okayOkay okayOkay

Another Sunday afternoon nothing much to doSit and try and make some sense of what I think I think about youSoaked with surroundings that just make me yawnFirst snow melting outside on the lawnScattered bits of yesterday with melancholy flecks of grayCreeping back to show me I was wrongA heart full of whats hard to say I let that skipping record playFar too longFallStill were shot down by the lights of it allFlyUp above all that still steals the lights from your carnival eyesYou once smiled and said to me dont stay awake too longSome kind of affirmation knowing you were truly wrongSome kind of happiness in things we never seeKnow we are not half as smart as we pretend to beWell you were right I have pretended to be meAnd now these jaded eyes can barely seeWhere is this going anyway?Its always hard to sayHard to say

Flowers moonlight sticky thingsSongs that mean nothing places Ive beenBlood fruit crying old guitar stringsTheyre all softly poetic smoothly obsceneWhen I use the word YouI dont know who I meanIf this song was a paintingIt would be velveteenWhen I use the word YouI dont know who I meanIf this song was a paintingIt would beVelveteenI recall all those wasted snowflakes dying in the fallAnd I remember those starry eyes rose glasses bewitch me saw thatOur words and our bodies will always flow like theCool clear stream on the rocks belowWhen I use the word YouI dont know who I meanIf this song was a paintingIt would be velveteenWhen I use the word YouI dont know who I meanIf this song was a paintingIt would beVelveteenWe sat on the beach at night and it shone fantasticAnd the lake after dark looks like looks like burn plasticWe all need a space to fall down and growAnd its so sickly-sweet like some bad T.V. showWhen I use the word YouI dont know who I meanIf this song was a paintingIt would be velveteenWhen I use the word YouI dont know who I meanIf this song was a paintingIt would beVelveteenForgot that we used to sayWe all learn to fly some dayI thought that was a (?)But I was wrong

I woke you up at four this morning to whimper and to whineTo hear myself through spit and crackle of a poor long-distance lineTwelve clever ways to say I love you with words that always failHang up and light a cigarette sit waiting for the mailA flier from department stores another get-rich planA bill or two some shampoo and a note from Ed McMahonAlthough youll always be the one in which I will confideSometimes youre the razor on my private waterslideBy the way I got your letter yesterdayIt said theres no need to be sadIt said that some things would never ever changeBut that some already hadAnd I heard it from the corner of my earHow that voice makes things rightAnd Im sure theres something more than memoryAcross the Maryland Bridge tonightHow ominous these undercurrents they crowd me now it seemsAnd every time I meet you in the darkness of my dreamsIts likely that Ill turn around and parody myselfImagine were in different places pretend were someone elseWell I could be J. Edgar Hoover you be JFKAs power hungry egocentrics well paper fight the nights awaySometimes youre my nemesis when I am paranoidSometimes I have doubts and worries too strong to avoidBy the way I got your letter yesterdayIt said theres no need to be sadIt said that some things would never ever changeBut that some already hadAnd I heard it from the corner of my earHow that voice makes things rightAnd Im sure theres something more than memoryAcross the Maryland Bridge tonightOh Maryland Bridge tonightMaryland Bridge tonight

An open window shows the stars shine well up thereI clear my throat to hear some soundAnd think of falling out into the open airBlue-black sky and cold familiar groundSomething always pulls me backSomething always pulls me backSomething always seems to come along despite the despite theBlow up dolls of superheroes sad sound-bitten livesThese crowded streets of empty faces loneliness and liesIm waiting for some sympathetic smileIm confident its just another mileI stay up thirty hours waiting for a signStilted sunlight pulled through old venetian blindsLost cause a pregnant pause a shiver when I wakeTo perseverance wearing thin through all the noise I makeSomething always pulls me backSomething always pulls me backSomething always seems to come along despite the despite theBlow up dolls of superheroes sad sound-bitten livesThese crowded streets of empty faces loneliness and liesIm waiting for some sympathetic smileIm confident its just another mileIm waiting for your sympathetic smileIm confident its just another mile

Out on the front porch with a kerosene lampSee white-capped waves rolling five feet highBut begging these memories for another advanceIs like whispering love to the skyI have this picture of you taking my handSink to my knees in the damp dark sandTake off all your clothes and we reach out in vainThe light goes out as it starts to rainSaint Cecilia send me something simple and sublimeClose my eyes and douse my head with red raspberry wineThe wind rises swiftly and the trees start to swayTo take back the delicate words that you saidPlace me there in the sunrise of the strong new dayCause the light here is failing these words are all deadJust leave me my cherished ambiguityI need it sleep with I need it to seeFor all contradictions that I try to disguiseWill rise up from my lungs come to be baptized bySaint Cecilia send me something simple and sublimeClose my eyes and douse my head with red raspberry wine

Heres a little picture for your wallet and your mindIts us when we were searching for the blue we could not findIts us with padded pockets dazzling futures and these unpolluted smilesReality pushed back just by the thinkings of the latest stylesWell Im nineteen and Im catching myself living in the pastWalls with wilted Polaroids of friends that didnt lastAnd everything that was promising is common now I findSo heres a little picture for your wallet and your mindHeres a little picture for your wallet and your mindIt seems that what we wanted didnt like what we would findIt seems you didnt listen when I told you what I meanFutility is reminiscence. Shades of velveteenThe ceaseless beatings of our histories memories fill our lungsDrowning us in different futures down another rungWell my voice cracks with the thought of you so innocent and blindSo heres a little picture for your wallet and your mindIts just one of many pictures I must learn to leave behind

Walk Away Lyrics

Q: Farewell Faded Memory

Hey another numbing light of early morningAnother pile of half-read booksNice and safe in my serene surroundingsEvil smiles and empty looksWhy justify why you can think at all?I guess Im far too saneCry falsify this turmoil of emotionUntil you feel no pain butIm pretty sure some sun will rise andGive me the strength to shield my eyes fromAll the lights and all the lies of compromiseAnd I always try to understand butLooking back its hard to knowThat you were bought and sold for a box filled full of Spanish goldI sifted through some archives yesterdayMet you in a photographI saw your face and simply had to look awayI know that that would make you laughSo many things I guess I should rememberBut I dont know howSo many things so easy to forgetI guess I miss you now butIm pretty sure some sun will rise andGive me the strength to shield my eyes fromAll the lights and all the lies of compromiseAnd is this a faded memory orDid I see you crawlingOut towards the open sea so sad and free without meOh without meI bid farewell to the faded memory
