Butterflies outside my window as I sit here trying to write this song.
I'm thinking, hey, Why don't I take the day.
To sit down and be lazy, think of the days ahead of me.
I'm thinking: would't it be great to lay down and take a break
in the spring time when its sunny Ill call you dear you'll call me hunny
And in the morning Ill be crying if beside me you're not lying
My dearest darling pumpkin pie.
And I thought I could find you in a dream
So I just closed my eyes and pray to god I fall asleep.
And while I caught those Z's I'll be doing my best
to find that X on the map, I had to find you.
Its crazy to think for a moment I was sane
until you crawled up inside my head and now you're there to stay
Im sitting around all day long, trying to put all my feelings into song
Cause words aren't enough and neither is music
I had a verse to put here but forgot how to use it.
And I thought I could find you in a dream
So I just closed my eyes and pray to god I fall asleep.
And while I caught those Z's I'll be doing my best
to find that X on the map, I had to find you.

She is starting to annoy me
and though she still adores me
Its getting harder to believe
And I keep trying to tell her calmly
that she just appalls me
but she wont listen
She keeps holding on
She wont let go
I try moving on
She wont let go
She wont say tats its over
I tell her every single day
She says that its a lie
stay with me 'til you die
like the promise that you made
No she wont say its over
She just thinks that its a game
a game that I wont play
Ill find another way
To tell her stay away
I keep hoping we'll grow further
just thinking if I told her
she'd get the point and leave
But she only grows closer
though I still oppose her
she stays insistantly.
She keeps holding on
She wont let go
I try moving on
She wont let go
She wont say tats its over
I tell her every single day
She says that its a lie
stay with me 'til you die
like the promise that you made
No she wont say its over
She just thinks that its a game
a game that I wont play
Ill find another way
To tell her stay away

Them Crawling Worms

Sleeping soundly in a bed of dirt
Gently cradled by them crawling worms.
I start weeping oh so softly, sweetly
I had to find the noise to love and feed me.
I used to use you as a crutch
I can feel the warm feelings but I cant touch
If its my choice why'd you say I was wrong?
pulling on my strings it was you all along.
My cloudy vision is all I see
The critters running from their habitats
they scitter scatter case they cant handle that
the flames ingulfing all that held and pleasured them
the fire destroying all their jewels and treasured gems
the skies not falling but it might as well should be
crashing to the ground for the first time in history.
It was hung like a curtain. I wouldnt tell you unless I knew I was certain
And its been some time since I realized your real lies
Ive got sunshine, I got day light watch me as I open my eyes to the sunrise
I would give it all.
You dont owe
you dont know me
you dont owe
I would give it all.
Sleeping soundly in a bed of dirt.
Gently cradled by them crawling worms.

Red dirt and caterpillars.
and down the block theres a pool full of tadpools
Where are your manners?
have you anything to say for yourself at all?
daydream your night away
you breathe so low your lungs are showing through
but someday you'll scream so loud the sky will break
my feet are sore
and the concrete below is cracked and shattered.
where are your manners?
have you anthing to say for yourself, at all?
daydream your night away.
You breathe so low your lungs are showing through
your bones are showing too,as well.
You're looking like hell.
But I love you all the same.
Its all the same
Bye bye bye bye bye
Ill remember your face
Bye bye bye bye bye
just remember my name
Bye bye bye bye bye
please remember
Bye bye bye bye bye
