I want to write a song about the words I live withoutThe words I cannot say In hopes they go away

I want to write a songaboutthe words that I cut outmy verbal repertoirevoided now here they are

A as in abortion, animal cruelty,and B is for the beesC is climate change, D is doomsday, E is earthquakeF my fear of flying, G is global warming, and H is HaitiThese are the words I had to eraseThese are the things I won't have to faceCause I live in a world of peace and harmony Mama why'd you bring me here

Cause you knew about the Nukes, and I'm sure you knew

I’ve seen souls in spirit goldenAnd I’ve seen souls in spirit gold

Now I’ve cleaned myself from that unset-tling lightI’ve seen souls in spirit goldenAnd I’ve seen souls in spirit gold

Now I’ve cleaned myself from that unset-tling light

Lonely robot in a wastelandRusting in a lonely harbor

Lonely robot in a wastelandRusting in the harbor’s water

You said I’d never had a hold on youThe phantom I spiel toYou said you’d never have a hold on meThe phantom I still see

Just another early drinker Who knows that thinkin’ makes the world go roundJust another early drinkerWho knows that thinkin’ makes

Follow me, why don’t you follow me?Down to the street and then back to my house Watch your step! I’m number

Come on in and I’m sorry for the messI saw you standing there, and I asked youI slyly touch my hair, you looked as I hoped

I throw my head back as I laugh, I touch your arms look into your eyesWe’ll say some words some words that I’ll forget, we both know they’re mostly

The dialogue starts to lag, the smokes are burning downWe do a little calculation and suggest we get another roundBut as the music swells you take your

chance to bend in close as if to hearBut then you say 8 magic words,“do you want to get out of here?”Follow me, why don’t you follow me?Down to the street and then back Watch your step! I’m numberCome on in and I’m sorry for the mess

You probably think she’s being bador that she’s going straight to hellBut this is just a girl who wants,who’s not afraid to help herself

Cause every boy she’s ever knownIs just a peach and as sweet as pieSo how could you hope to say no

Follow me, why don’t you follow me?Down to the street and then back house

FOLLOW MEFOLLOW MEFOLLOW MEFOLLOW MEFOLLOW MEFOLLOW MEFOLLOW MEFOLLOW MEFOLLOW MEFOLLOW MEFOLLOW MEFOLLOW MEFOLLOW MEFOLLOW MEFOLLOW ME

FOLLOW ME

I can’t follow dreams foreverJust to see them fall apartWe can change the worldIf we are together

‘Cause I know I won’t let it goWhen I look into your eyesI just know you tell me lies

This, this is my lifeI’m looking for you, searching love in your eyesThis, this my lifeI’m chasing a dream that fade away in the night

I start to miss your smileYour voice is all I hearI’m chasing hollow eyesShow me, I’m wrong tonight

This, this is my lifeI’m looking for you, searching love in your eyesThis, this my lifeI’m chasing a dream that fade away in the night

I saw the mirror starin’ back at meAnd it told me I’m a self machineI saw the mirror starin’ back at meAnd it told me I’m a self machine

It said “I gave you these scarsAnd I gave you these woundsI told you the falseAnd I showed you the truth”

I saw the mirror starin’ back at meAnd it told me I’m a self machine

Lonely robot in a wastelandRusting in a lonely harborLonely robot in a wastelandRusting in the harbor’s water

I’m not a human if you say I’m notI’m not a human if my engines lockAnd this motor that you call my heartIs another machine that will stop

And the impression of my self machineThe word was spoken and it was foreseenNow we’re too well too bothered

MY LIFE GOD IS MY BIKE

Now I’ve cleaned myself from that unsettling light

Lonely robot in a wastelandRusting in a lonely harbor

Lonely robot in a wastelandRusting in the harbor’s water

You said I’d never had a hold on youThe phantom I spiel toYou said you’d never have a hold on meThe phantom I still see

Just another early drinker Who knows that thinkin’ makes the world go round

Just another early drinker

Who knows that thinkin’ makes the Lonely robot in a wastelandRusting in a lonely harbor

Lonely robot in a wastelandRusting in the harbor’s water

You said I’d never had a hold on youThe phantom I spiel to Lonely robot in a wastelandRusting in a lonely harbor

Lonely robot in a wastelandRusting in the harbor’s water

You said I’d never had a hold on youThe phantom I spiel to I saw the mirror starin’ back at meAnd it told me I’m a self machine

I want to annoyAnd I'm going to enjoy itAnd merely 'cause we're boredMerely because we're bored.

'Cause all you do is hopeYou're all fucking hopersAnd it's the Lord of the Flies all over againIt's the Lord of the Flies all over again

Now who holds the shell will be CaesarYou can even have it written on your t-shirtNow who holds the shell will be CaesarYou can even have it written on your t-shirt

Here we goKing of the hopers will fallWe're gonna knock down the wallsSingin' the Caesar will fallWe gonna knock down his doors

I've heard it all beforeAnd I chose to ignore itThere's someone at your doorThere's somebody at your door

Fall into flames and you won’t do it againYou’ve learned a lesson that you’ve never been taught soCrawl into blame that you will never reclaimIt is a blessing that you’ll never get caught oh

But underneath we are goldenHold them, we made them

Our hearts beat control themToo fast, too fast for me tonight

I’ve seen souls in spirit goldenAnd I’ve seen souls in spirit goldNow I’ve cleaned myself from that unsettling

It was too bright for me and the love in my lifeBut if you capture me I’ll be within your sightIt was too bright for me, it was too bright tonight

IT’S QUITETRANQUILE
