Альбом Letters To Cleo

that's the greatest picture i have ever seen
so i stole it for myself so you could see just what i mean
and this alluvial fan it represents
my life i've got the strength to move
but why should i
i got time
i got time

that's the greatest
story i have heard so far
lilies in the toilet spider
driving motor cars
all the evidence would seem
to point out that i'm just another choke in your
wheels and that you got me trapped
i got time
i got time

you take the weight off the heavy notion
i'll take the wave from coast to ocean
that's why the ride is light
it's all alright
it's alright

this alluvial fan it represents my life
i've got the strength to move
but why should i
you take the weight off the heavy notion
and i'll... i got time
it's what i got

I can stand here and do this again
I can say it but where to begin
I know that I'm caving in
Cause I'm heavy, I'm heavy.
So the wonder of you is done,
I'm tired and bloodied and good to be gone
I know that you did me wrong,
Cause I'm ready, I'm ready

As for the part about having something more
Let's not pretend that it's like it was before
And I wish I could say that it's not because of you
But it's all because of you

I've a dark and snowy remembrance of this,
But remind me again of what I'm gonna miss
When all you do is let me down
Your better tell me something,
And tell it to me now.

As for the part about having something more,
Let's not pretend that it's like it was before
And I wish I could say that it's not because of you
But it's all because of you
And are you sorry?

As for the part about having something more,
Let's not pretend that it's like it was before
And I wish I could say that it's not because of you
But it's all because of you

And it's all because of you
The light went black and I got scared.

the anchor is a kickstand
so you're going down with me
to the wrong side
of the quicksand and
our flashlight destiny

you can be the walker cuz i'm gonna be your wire
you can be the ugly truth
cuz i'm gonna be your liar

still the future lit up
so bright for all to see
i can't look now cuz you're all the same
you're all the same to me
up and away
up and away

the anchor is a kickstand
so you're going down with me
to the wrong side of the quicksand
and our flashlight destiny

it's all wrong
we tripped along
so much worse off for it and
only god can help the one
who put the magnets in your head
up and away up
up and away with you

if i could just get up
i'd be fine
if i could just get up

the anchor is a kickstand
so you're going down with me
to the wrong side
of the quicksand and
our flashlight destiny

the anchor is a kickstand
so i'm taking you down
to the wrong side of the quicksand
so i'm taking you down

Once i knew this boy
you wanted what you could get if you wanted is so bad
why did you go and take it out in trade instead

my momma cried she shook and wandered off to a different place and
my daddy couldn't make things better then
if he couldn't say it

chorus
wait around and maybe i'll forget about it after awhile
but instead i like to think ahead
'til they find you dead

skipping out on god is bad
but not worse than mitigating it
that's why i don't
make the time to hope or pray
so i'm just gonna shine
in the brillance
of the only one who's gotten you behind

chorus

'til i find a bag and get my turn in effigy you'll burn

That was my heart when time was a seed
Tell me what it means
We made it out okay but soon it turned to dust
Tell me what it means

Cut it out and get off the floor
Because it doesn't make you matter more
Veda very shining who will you wait up for
Life love heaven death
Is that what makes you such a mess
Veda very shining

At the well and out of luck you said "I've had enough"
But still you couldn't make a man out of me
Is that such a bad disease

Cut it out and get off the floor
Because it doesn't make you matter more
Veda very shining and who will you wait up for
Life love heaven death
Is that what makes you such a mess
Veda very shining

You're not real and yet you seem familiar
Is that what you want
You're not real and yet you seem familiar
Is that... what you want

That was my heart when time was...
A seed
Tell me what it means

Cut it out get off the floor
Because it doesn't make you matter more
Veda very shining and who will you wait up for
Life love heaven death
Is that what makes you such a mess
Veda very shining

Everybody says that you're no good
I don't pay attention though
It doesn't matter though I know it should
I don't pay attention
So what's the use?
When it never ends
And you're singular it's true
So much for them
Who cares about my friends?

Be my co-pilot
Come be in my dream
You looked so beautiful there
Just like a part of you
That makes a part of me seem...

Everybody tries so hard to bring me down
I don't pay attention though
It doesn't matter
Cuz I can hardly hear a sound
And I don't pay attention
Because number one
I'm good with you
And the way you look at me
Is number two
So what else would I do?

Be my co-pilot
Come be in my dream
You looked so beautiful there
Just like a part of you
It makes a part of me seem...
Like a one way track
I feel like I could float away...

So what's the use when it never ends
And you're singular it's true
So much for them
Who cares about my friends

Be my co-pilot
Come be in my dream
You looked so beautiful there
Just like a part of you

Be my co-pilot
Come be in my dream
You looked so beautiful there
Just like a part of you

Take a ride co-pilot
Shimmer on in my dream

Say it, a good clip,
Is a real good way to go real fast.
Say it, I'm on track,
And I'm built for speed,
Pull up the back.
On your mark,
Ready, set,
Go!

Teaser, with pretty lines,
With your shiny glass and perfect timing.
Ease up against my spine,
Cause there's still a million miles to climb.
On your mark,
Go!

Would I do what it takes,
If it would shut you off?
Now don't be so sure,
But don't make me have to find out cause,

I feel lucky, you look nice and,
I'm not gonna say it twice cause,
You're in my car now.

Say it, a good clip,

Could I do what it takes,
If it would shut you off?
Now don't be so sure,
But don't make me have to find out cause,

I feel lucky, you look nice and,
I'm not gonna say this twice cause,
You're in my car,
You're in my car now.

A good girl always knows what's right
Don't forget your keys now
don't be late

I'm told that if you last the night
they'll make you drown or float
just wait
be more like a fire than a firefly
cuz that's the best way to be happy

sparklegirl
it's clear there's an awful lot to fear
that so up
and I wont try to you slow down
but I gotta get there first
or be buried

it's not like us
to say we told you so
it's no like life
to be that fair

sparklegirl it's clear
there's an awful lot to fear
that's so up

sparklegirl it's clear
there's an awful lot to fear
that's so up

and i won't try to slow you down
but i've gotta get there first
or be buried

So you trade me in for them,
When they're so mean.
I wouldn't do that,
If I were you.

Why would you say all those love thing,
When you knew you'd leave?
I wouldn't say that,
If I were you.

Alouette and me,
I don't wanna know you lately.
Alouette and me,
Why'd you go and ruin everything?

In a dream I held my head up,
But I'm not brave.
Let them see it,
What you've done.

Stultifier,
You're such a liar.
And you should be ashamed.
Let them see it,
What you've done.

Alouette and me,
I don't wanna know you lately.
Alouette and me,
Why'd you go and ruin everything?

But it's alright,
And I'm not mad.
Even though I'm not there,
For you no more.

Alouette and me,
Just mark off the territory.
It's the strangest thing,
It doesn't hurt,
But I wont forget the sting.

But it's alright,
And I'm not mad,
Even thought I'm not there,
For you now more.

it would be nice to know everything
but i never said i did
and now that i'm a moving target
with nothing to admit
what will i find when i cross that line
for now it's fine
just say goodnight

though it would be a kick to get my way
but i hardly ever do
and the closest that i ever get is
nothing on you

like what happened when i said
you'd never go
but now i know

that
i'm a fool
to think that you
could ever be that true
so you decide
i'm not a child
and somehow i'll get by

and now just think for a minute
what you said and
then about what you've done
and i'll think about your other girls
and how i want to be the only one

make a plan
figure out where you stand
and see it through
just make your move

i'm a fool
to think that you
could ever be that true
now you decide
i'm not a child
and somehow i'll get by

i don't care what you say
i don't care what you do
i don't care what you say
i don't care what you do
just make it me
just make it me

What would you do for me my sweet cherubic baby?
Ideally way up high and lovely.
Well I had a thought that I'm not waiting for you any more,
I'm astral, crystalline pure through.

You could disappear tomorrow,
Who would care?
It's not like the retribution,
Would end there.
You could disappear.

Tell us a story,
Tell us all about your heavenly lie,
In detail, and don't leave out a word,
I'm listening.
All grown up Stepford son,
Don't ever change,
Don't go away,
You're too quiet,
Ever to be heard,
But you could,

Disappear tomorrow,
Who would care?
It's not like the retribution,
Would end there.
You could disappear tomorrow,
But let me make it clear so,

Keep your eyes down low,
And keep very still.
Just keep your eyes down low,
And keep very still.
Just keep your eyes down low,
And keep very still.
Hands up.
