In your head you cut loose
and no one seems to refuse
They can help break the noose ∞
but only you seem to refuse
Trim control hands off the wheel
you don't even know where you want to be
We can leave town and ride that rail _ _ _ _ _ _ _
but don't feel obliged, you can always bail
You can stay in your filth
'til you're comfortable taking a shower
pa pa pa pa pa pa
Take my hand I'll guide you through -->
but the forest is big I get lost too
With the grass tickling my sole
laughter's confusing me more and more
So here is where we dig up a hole
one for your body and one for your soul
When the sun gets in your eyes
you see so much more than you intended to : o
You can stay in your filth
'til you're comfortable taking a shower x2
pa pa pa pa pa pa
pa pa pa
pa pa pa pa pa pa... x3

The Crops

Oh dear, tell my why
Don't you wanna go play outside?
Do you fear the rain?
Is it because you don't wanna get wet?
I thought you were adventurous...
You're sweet, but you're not sugar
water won't make you disappear
Are you afraid of god's tears?
Is it because you don't wanna get wet?
Don't wanna get wet?
Oh dear, tell me when
when the crops are ready to pick up
'cause I fear that the rain will get you more than wet
and if you don't wanna get wet
I don't want you to
GET WET
the we just don't wanna get wet!
Are the crops ready?
How will we know?
Are the crops ready?
When will we know?

I might as well call it a day
as I open my eyes
Whatever I drink will quench my thirst
but for how long?
I started a band, had a great time
'till I died inside
You say I'm depressed
I say 'NO, I'm sober, I am not depressed'
You say I'm a slacker
I say 'NO, I'm done, I am just done'
I might as well turn off the alarm
as I got nothing to do
Whatever I buy will get me high
but just for a while, until I die
I tried with love, I thought that was it
then the void returned and I just wanted more
You say I'm depressed
I say 'NO, I'm sober, I am not depressed'
You say I'm a slacker
I say 'NO, I'm done, and I have moved on'
uuuuuuuuu
a-a-a a a-aahhhah

The breeze was talking to me
...it don't lie
When a stubborn man, 5"3, asked me for a smoke
He said –"it seems unusual to get one of these for free"
–I thought –what is it for?
with wind so thick you won't light shit up
(*plays cool guitar riff)
But the stubborn man took his hat of and burned it to start a fire
I walked away and the echo of the breeze
forever it stayed
and the echo of the breeze
FOREVER IT STAYED...
(*plays cool guitar riff)
At the gallery I saw you
slip into my way
You're making me anxious, you're making me anxious
What is it that you need from me?
Your nervous laughter is making me anxious, it's making me anxious
Of course I didn't speak my thoughts
but the girl could tell, yeah she could tell
(*plays cool guitar riff)
She said she's sorry
I don't know what for but we both know why
–"I realize it's not the place nor the time,
but now that we're here I got to ask you one question"
–She said
–"Are you afraid of death?"
I walked away and the echo of the breeze
forever it stayed
and the echo of the breeze
FOREVER IT STAYED...

Who you want to be
lives in the distance
far from reality
they can't reach you
Light people's night
maybe their lives
Years away I can see you
'cause you're shining
'cause your burning
We'd like to walk your grounds
know more about your life
No one needs you
but it's nice when you don't hide
Stars die but they don't leave the sky
we can always see you
Years away I can see you
'cause you're shining
'cause your burning

Try to escape it's cold as snow
and as we go we'll find the weather
living in the heaviest cloud
on his own, but he'll get better
When we left behind our home
our breath stayed the smell lingered
The tenants little di they know
what we had done, that we were done
Out the window they could see
a trail of steps paved by the bees
If the sun ever comes back
we'll melt together, we've found the weather

How do I do to be with you, get inside of you?
What I gotta do to get closer?
Looking back I realized I'm not denying, I've been escaping
That's alright 'cause so do you, and so do you, and you and you
We're all kids to some degree and nothing is more childish than denying
How to proceed to get inside of you, be with you?
I just need to know it's mutual
I'm not alone just tripping
How to proceed to get inside of you, be with you?
And what do I do to get closer?
