Molotov

Been twisting about a whole lifetime
Around my finger ‘till it’s blue
But it’s starting to unravel
I’m losing track of the truth
Pour in the bottle the good and the bad
The fire and the fuel, the stones and the sand
I’m a molotov waiting
A match and a hand
When I close my eyes I see the scenes
The images culled from my dreams
Of all the things I never thought to think
I’m a parachute out on the wire
I’m a circle of crops, that makes no sign
I’m a live oak tree, obsessed with dying
1,000 types of sadness floating in the air
We are writing, we are building, we are being laid bare
We’re the sayer of sooths, and collector of cares
So you think you’re the first to curse the sky
To sit and truly wonder why
Well I’ve got one little bit of truth:
We’re not alone
And You Belong Here

Let's Get Cathartic

Those Southern belles were chiming their siren songs
While the boys do their best just to sing along
And yeah I know it ain't that late
And the band next door is playing Driver 8
But babe, there's a voice, calling out, that we can't hear
That secret exchange of discrete vibrations
Moving folks about
Shaking memories free
And teasing stories out
That don't normally see much light
Ah, fuck it, I'll have another drink tonight
Let's Get Cathartic
Sitting in a room alone
Singing songs that were barely written and were never told
They come from some place that feels too much
And was born feeling old
Like a siren in a fog
Like a needle in a thorn
This cup is never filled but this soul is never worn
I was born feeling old
Take your insecurities
Ball 'em up and toss 'em to the ground
Mash 'em into a fine paste with the tip of your shoe
Sweep the goo under the rug
Shop-Vac to suck up all the fumes
What I'm trying to say is take control is what you need to do
'Cause it's so much easier to tell you how
Than to do it myself
So much easier to tell you how
Than to do it myself
Let's Get Cathartic
