3. _ Can You Tell
Have I been too discreet
How long am I supposed to wait
I think about you nightly
Oh can you tell I'm losing sleep
What am I supposed to do
It's hard to stay cool
When you smile at me
And I get nervous every time you speak
My bed's too big for just me
When you turn your eyes
I promise I won't care
Standing by your sister fair
Oh baby baby baby please
My heart sinks to my feet
What am I supposed to do
I think about you nightly
My bed's too big for just me
When you turn your eyes
I promise I won't care
Standing by your sister fair
Standing by your sister fair
Standing by your sister fair
When I look into your eyes
I tend to lose my thoughts
Don't forget your stare
Oh what was that you said
Would you let me know
'Cause I can't read your mind
Oh can you tell
I can't even explain
Oh baby I can't even explain
What am I supposed to do
It's hard to stay cool
When you smile at me
And I get nervous every time you speak
Oh, standing by your sister fair

4. _ Dying Is Fine
To settle our thoughts,
Never minding what for.
Nothing of harm to dread.
On my mind.
Tell me what belies,
Or tell me what I could have.
Oh, tell me what for.
No more of this living, dying,
Just scientific analyzing.
Forgive us, oh life,
The sin of...
Death, oh baby,
You know that dying is fine, but maybe.
I wouldn't like death if death were good,
Not even if death were good.
Is this is,
Maundering about?
And all I have is too much time,
To understand.
One can only love,
Life until its ending.
Oh, and I can't forget.
No more of this living, dying,
Just scientific analyzing.
Forgive us, oh life,
The sin of...
Death, oh baby,
You know that dying is fine, but maybe.
I wouldn't like death if death were good,
Not even if death were good. (x4)

6. _ Run My Mouth
All my days, they end too slow.
And I wonder where I've left to go.
Anyway, there's no such thing as company.
I've discovered all I've got to do.
What is it that gets you through
Another day when I'm not there?
Wish we could be more open.
I don't have time to think of how you are.
All my days, they end too slow.
And I wonder where I've left to go.
And besides, I've got no one but myself to blame.
I've discovered all I've got to do
Is run my mouth off.
Run my mouth off.
Run my mouth off.
Run my mouth off.
When I dream, it's not of you.
Something in your voice that I can't hear.
But some company it is.
Because it feels so close when I wake.
And in fifty years no one will care
That I was once there.
All my days, they end too slow.
And I wonder where I've left to go.
Anyway, there's no such thing as company.
I've discovered all I've got to do
Is run my mouth off.
Run my mouth off.
Run my mouth off.
Run my mouth off.
Never wanted time for looking back.
For a moment I looked down and wondered.
And of what's to come today.
Girl, I wonder where you are.
All my days, they end too slow.
And I wonder where I've left to go.
And besides I've got no one but myself to blame.
I've discovered all I've got to do
Is run my mouth off.
Run my mouth off.
Run my mouth off.
Run my mouth off.
Run my mouth off.
Run my mouth off.
Run my mouth off.
Run my mouth off.

7. _ Too Too Too Fast
We have forgotten so much since then
The scent of her breath again
Or maybe it's the way that we felt on the phone
Stop looking up to pretend
Everything is still there
We have forgotten so much since then
The scent of her breath again
Or maybe it's the way that we felt on the phone
Stop looking up
Pretending this is not
Bit it might've come from
The time of our love?
She just said it's cruel
I only care about the things that you don't
Anything that's right, we had much more
Anything worth losing, pleasing you
When I look in your eyes
(Too too too fast)
What am I supposed to do?
When I look in your eyes
When I look in your eyes
We have forgotten so much since then
The other slight on my hand
Is it the tone we defend on the phone???
Stop lookin up
But still I had thought
But they couldn't tell
The way or a change???
The way that we are
I can't tell if I'm asleep or awake
Anything that's right, pleasing you
When I look in your eyes
What am I supposed to do?
When I look in your eyes
Alright, alright
When I look in your eyes
What am I supposed to do?
What do I do
What am I to do?
We have forgotten so much since then

8. _ Each Year
Come on, force it down
I?m imagining
Come on, force it down
I?m imagining
Imaging a place where homes are built on frames
And where they plant new bulbs along our graves
With the fall each year
With the fall each year
Each year
And if you think you might
Yes, but if it?s not so bright
But if you?re a part of my
Whole life
Silhouettes in a window frame
Better run if it's Boo's old man
He won?t know if you?re white,
Oh, in the night
Coverin' a fault with
Trials and coy displays
Coverin' a fault with
Trials and coy displays
If it isn't worth the time to
Find out how we go
About recalling all the ways
And the reasons are for
With the fall each year
With the fall each year
Each year
And if you think you might
Yes, but if it?s not so bright
But if you?re a part of my
Whole life
Silhouettes in a window frame
Better run if it's Boo's old man
He won?t know if you?re white,
Oh, in the night
Vapor lamps in a parking light
You can?t see when it?s much too far
All that mist in your eyes
Oh, in the night
80 years isn't enough time
50 more isn't more enough
Oh
To right the wrongs
What you're hiding in your back yard
Is turning innocence to apathy
And accusations at another man
Oh
'Cause you don't have a prayer
To put your life into a Christian's hands
Never mind what your
Daughter is taught in school
What she remembers is
What she has learned from you
Silhouettes in a window frame
Better run if it's Boo's old man
He won?t know if you?re white,
Oh, in the night
Vapor lamps in a parking lot
You can?t see when it?s much too far
All that mist in your eyes
Oh, in the night

9. _ Ghost Under Rocks
With every little thing
Your owner's lookin' back
At you it starts to mean
Less than it ever did
Oh ever, on every inch of stone
Skin and bone.
Made to leave you
[Chorus]
Here you are, you are breathing like little ghosts under rocks
That don't sound in pockets
Folks found your problem
Its lost and forgotten
Oh, oh, oh
You soak in one dream
You've spent there, you are gonna dream there
Right, now you ask your baby
"Why? why? why?"
Forget the the frequent fliers
Leading an honored life
To give us this much more
Safe from a cut and cheer
On ever, on every inch of stone
Skin and bone.
Made to leave you
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh
You soak in one dream
You've spent there, you are gonna dream there
Dry
Now you ask your babies "Why? Why? Why? Why?"
And if you cant decide
You will do either weep or moan
Your wasting in a moments to
Anyway you want it to
Oh, but you could have had
Turn it into broken wood
Takin' off a Saturday
I'm gonna fan a parasol
Am fairer than a clown, oh no
Maybe there were two again
And if it ever was at all
I'm taking you up as an offer, up as an Offer.
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh
You soaking in one dream
You've spent there,
You have gone and dream there
Now you ask your babies, "Why? Why? Why? Why?"

10. _ Suspended in Gaffa
Out in the garden is half of a heaven,
We're only bluffing, what not, what's for best?
And through walls what they told us,
Unless we can prove that we're doing it,
We can't have it all.
He's gonna wangle a way to get out of,
And she's an excuse and a wit that's on top on.
And he's gone what they told us,
Unless we can prove that we're doing it,
We can't have it all.
We can't have it all.
Suddenly my feet, don't feet of mine,
It all goes slow-mo.
I don't know why I'm crying,
Am I suspended in Gaffa?
Not 'til I am really for you,
Not 'til I am really for you.
Can I have it all?
It tried to get nearer but as it gets clearer,
There's something, there are bee's in the way, it's a plank in me.
I with a camera who's trying to get through it,
Am I doing it, can I have it all now?
I pull up the plank and say, "thank you for yanking me",
Back to the fact that there's something to distract.
Sometimes it's hard to know,
If I'm doing it right, can I have it all now?
Can I have it all now?
Can I have it all?
I can't have it all.
Suddenly my feet, don't feet of mine,
It all goes slow-mo.
I don't know why I'm crying,
Am I suspended in Gaffa?
Not 'til I am really for you,
Not 'til I am really for you.
Can I have it all?
I won't open boxes that I am told not to,
Or not open door or much better record.
A girl in the mirror between you and me,
She knows sending it, it's not getting anywhere at all.
Not anywhere at all, no not a thing,
She can't have it all.
Suddenly my feet, don't feet of mine,
It all goes slow-mo.
I don't know why I'm crying,
Am I suspended in Gaffa?
Not 'til I am really for you,
Not 'til I am really for you.
Suddenly my feet, don't feet of mine,
It all goes slow-mo.
I don't know why I'm crying,
Am I suspended in Gaffa?
Not 'til I am really for you,
Not 'til I am really for you.
Can I have it all now?
