The Chump Ain't Real (free) 06:33
god is what you find when you get through to the meaning of you but maybe your trying but maybe its all wrong. but maybe its all wrong. youll know its right it front of you gotta get behind the thoughts you thought you knew, and maybe your trying, maybe its too soon. will you be the one for me who shows some generosity? could you be the one to see and show just where i outta be? chorus lines and chords are fine to express what you think of time, but words express the mind and i dont know what im to do with mine. lay back, relax. do what you wanna do. trying to be kind what words to use? gotta bear in mind, diffuse, and introduce ideas you can find: let none confuse. if youre really so inclined: lay back, relax, youll get through. will you be the one for me who shows some generosity? could you be the one to see and show just where i outta be? chorus lines and chords are fine to express what you think of time, but words express the mind and i dont know what im to do with mine. lay back, relax. do what you wanna do. try and what you find is likely to be false, and maybe youre trying but maybe youre all wrong. will you be the one for me who shows some generosity? could you be the one to see and show just where i outta be? chorus lines and chords are fine to express what you think of time, but words express the mind and i dont know what im to do with mine. dwelling in the mind, its likely youll be caught. but maybe youre trying and maybe youll be sought youre killing them with kindness, blindness, what youve got and maybe theyre crying but maybe theyll be taught youre living on my dime, my tithe, tenth, work done lost im saving my diamonds im changing my whole walk im filling up my time with mindful, youthful thoughts and maybe im dying but maybe we're all wrong will you be the one for me who shows some generosity? could you be the one to see and show just where i outta be chorus lines and chords are fine to express what you think of time but words express the mind and i dont know what im to do with mine but i really wanna try to see behind the grand design, just then: i thought a lot of TIMES absurd, confused. i brought a couple DIMES what i thought could be used you can dig it, trouble time theres no taboo or a fleeting feeling grime that washes over you. cause maybe im lying i must conclude, will you? will you be the one for me who shows some generosity? could you be the one to see and show just where i outta be chorus lines and chords are fine to express what you think of time but words express the mind and i dont know what im to do with mine

when the moon's hanging heavy in the sky i gotta run, i gotta fly. when the moon's hanging low i gotta go i gotta go. if youre going past, if you dont i dont want to know if you dont go. and if youre going through, if you do i dont want to be seen in the background with my pants down, im trying to get on with my swerve you dont want to let me. ive had it about to here. if i wanna drink, if i wanna smoke/drink with you... yeah i dont want to get too drunk too. if you want to dance with me, ill take you to my room cause i dont want to be chopped and screwed standing on a corner with my pants down to my knees you dont want to see me ive had it about to here. someone once told me: gold grows at the bottom of trees leaves fall and they die i see that its life breaking through the cracks of concrete that grow into the city streets i make my home among the trees and leaves of stone alone ive come to be.. if you want to be if you want to be alone with me too: ive got some motherfucking tests for you and if you pass, or if you dont pass if you dont like you want to then maybe we can bend the rules some have a two-some got me thinking i could use some

"follow me: come out of hiding. i know youre close. i can feel your heart. follow me, we'll group together. youll get your chance. just listen closely: i know youre lost for words, arent we all. but the key to our survival is in our own hands." following eachothers movements. "we've come to far." "we're getting closer now, probably." a constant movement for three whole weeks. its getting old. i miss miss my wife and my kids. i can feel their hearts, but the key to my survival is in my own hands. still following. theres only four now. we lost the girls. its getting harder now. wandering. thoughts distract me. "wheres my home?" its getting worse. i miss my wife and my kids. i can feel their hearts. but the key to my survival is in my own hands. "please dont let them grab you! im right here! oh no." "oh no" "now im gone, im gone. now im here with you again, now im back. im back, baby. now im here."

Oaktown 03:35
i go back to oaktown another place to be in the mirror i see the way back to the old town take another look and never gets any nearer in fact it gets farther away in a way it always seems to change and when i stop it catches me its safe to walk, and its safe to breathe i brushed you off so casually my self has got a hold on me im on track now a little older i didnt used to be but im used to seeing into the cracks of the old now take another look and it always gets a bit clearer its a trap as it gets further away in a way it always seems to change when i stop it fetches me until its safe to talk and its safe to be the chords still prop up prophecy quarter notes stop and the chorus leads
