What's your headline for the week?
What's your game-plan this time?
What cause are you fighting for?
Grab your bullhorn and get in line.
What bandwagon are you riding on?
What views are you speaking now?
What protest will you picket?
What new beliefs have you found?
Tell me why you fully commit
to things that normally wouldn't mean ****
Speaking about this, that, and those
Issues-of-the-month is the life you've chose.
You can't seem to embrace your past
So now you're a bandwagon type-cast
What's your overall goal here?
What's in this for you?
What possibly would make you change?
Which life are you going to choose?
Why are you lying to yourself?
Why do you keep up this rouse?
Why am I even caring?
It's been 8 years since I loved you.

Back in the beginning, with no end in sight
Knocking down walls was our daily fight
White bones burning with a cherry red light
Living out of bounds on the wrong side of right
Ain't no time to be kind, what is yours is now mine
Howling out sounds that can not be defined
But who knew that we could never find the time
To feed our hourglass with one more dime
There was a purple sun rising out in the east
Tears were shed from the burden of your beast
Our boats drifted away, getting to far to reach
The sun had set and no longer would you cease.
So play on my friend and play forevermore
I sure I'll see you again when I get to that door
The marble has been set and the dirt piled high
You may be gone, but you'll never leave my mind

Butter me up
Roll me over
Red rover red rover
let Orville come over.
Pop it up
Fill the cup
Handfuls down
Popcorn crown.

"Was it something I said?" He asked as she writhed around to the opposite shoulder accompanied by an exasperated sigh.
"No."
"Was it something I did?" He retorted.
"No. It was nothing. Just--nothing. Now, please, turn off the ******* light so I can sleep."
Defeated, he reached over his bedside table with weeks worth of night-time water cups bungling up his path to the switch and turned out the light.
She was gone in the morning.
He woke up without even noticing at first. She usually woke up before him to have fresh coffee brewed, accompanied with a poached egg or two, but those were better days. He knew they were growing apart, but he never imagined he would wake up to an empty house. He felt her falling out of love-- and it was all his fault.
The little things he never used to notice seem much bigger in hindsight--but, as they say, "hindsight is 20/20." The way her hand fit so perfectly in his as they would take their nightly walks. Her stories of her workday that used to deem a nuisance to his ears now seem like a beautiful aria of yesterday's loss.
He stepped out into the hallway and felt a cold breeze coming from the living room. He slowly sauntered from the doorway with his head held low, feet scuffling the carpet. He stepped in to the opening of the living room to find the windows facing the rising morning sun wide open.
"--the **** he muttered. He hated the cold, and it was this particular morning that seemed colder than it actually was. He quickly scurried to the open french-door-type windows and slammed them shut. His head came slamming against the panes followed by a lull of silence, and then a deep and heavy sigh.

You were a pretty girl, and I was pretty lame
I got lucky when you agreed to take my name
I tried to stay away, but she came closer everyday
I never thought I'd miss her, and I never thought it'd be your sister
I got close to you
To get closer to her
You have the eyes
But she's still prettier
You've got the books
She's got the looks
And I'm on her hook
..Yes I'm on her hook
I'm sorry I had to move you out this way
I went from having you,
To having her,
To being lonely all in one day..

The curves of her mouth match the curves in the road
and I can't see in front of me, head first into unknown.
The headlights flashing are warning me ahead
"Honey, you better steer to the left or else we'll be dead."
Drowning in the lake with the ghosts of yesterday
who've died the same death and were left here to stay.
Turn the radio up and roll the windows down,
the wind sweeps across your face and gives you a crown.
I'm the King of the road with my Queen by my side
we'll take this whole death thing with grateful stride

If I was given a chance
I'd steal you a car
If I was given a chance
I'd grab you a star
If I was given a chance
Wouldn't have to go too far
If I was given a chance
..you could love me.
If I had a voice
I could sing you a song
If I had a voice
I could tell you you're wrong
If I had a voice
It wouldn't take me too long
..to tell you I love you

Lying down,
In a haze,
In a daze
For days and days
Take this pill,
Don't drown,
Head is spinning
Round and round
Throwing shoes
Swigging gin
Win or lose
Again and again
leap of faith
hold your breath
today's the day for
love and death

I'm so in love with you
Makes my nose wrinkle,
and my toes curl
I'm so in love with you
I'm so in love with you
Makes my stomach gurgle,
and my face gets purple
I'm so in love with you
I'm so in love with you
Makes my head spin,
and my insides curdle
I'm so in love with you
I'm so in love with you
Makes my eyes white
and my ***** more fertile
I'm so in love with you

2 for 4 dollars?
What a steal
So, how's about you give me one,
and I'll make you a deal...
Or I'll hold it against you--
'till you're on your death bed
And I'll never let it down
It is now forever in my head
You better square up,
Better settle your bets
It's time to make me happy
Because I'm as sad as it gets
3 for 10 bucks?
What a steal!
Now, how's about you give me all of it,
and I'll make you a deal...
I won't hold it against you,
or give you feelings of dread.
But if you EVER let me down
it's you who'll end up dead
