Hair falling off of my head, grows right on my back And all of the tears I cry won't ever bring it back Take that mirror of the wall But that won't do no good at all Better get up off of that couch and climb some place where I might fall 'Cause when you're about to lose your head You don't worry about your curls When the boat gets rocky and the suits start to break a sweat That's when you know for sure that some iron is about to melt Unless you're as blind as a bat Unless you're so very well tamed It's the first rule of keeping us afraid and entertained 'cause when about to lose your head You don't worry about your curls

I got a thing, I can’t seem to find, clutters up my head, clouding up my mind I got a thing crawling up my spine, I'd give it all away but it isn't mine I got a thing I can’t seem to bite, keeps me on my toes, keeps me out of sight I got a thing boiling in my gut, keep me up all night, keep me from thinking right I got a thing I can’t see thru, eating up my soul, keeps me apart from you I got a thing as thick as glue, and I can't shake it off no matter what I do I got a thing, won't let me be, it keeps my self so far away from me The race it never ends, and I can't help but run I'm running late ahead of time
3.
Sometimes I can't remember, sometimes I just can't decide Am I still down in the ghetto? could it be that I am the guard? Can't tell which side I'm on, Am I inside, outside, flipside of the fence? Is it just a matter of circumstance? Because it never really happens when it happens to somebody else Sometimes they ask you - what do you think? You don't say nothing at all, Sometimes you cry so loud ain’t no one there to hear your call Somebody is hanging by their teeth, There must be nothing you can do, You’re just a pawn in their game, Don’t you know it’s true? That it never really happens unless it happens to you
4.
And so the feeling grows, I got to pack my songs Move down that beat up road, just like I did before And though I'm getting old, I still got time to find A place to call my home, a way to ease my mind To hold your head up high sometimes you'll have to crawl To shun them easy tongues you got to let it roll ‘cause you can't lick your tongue, you can't bite your teeth You can't sell guns and say you're in for peace And though my fortune's told, and though I know it's cold I got to leave my pond before the water boils I know I'm mostly wrong, but I just might be right I know it's mostly grey, there's hardly black or white But you can't smell your nose, you can't marry your niece You can't sell guns and say you're in for peace Now my knees are shaky and my eyes are red Now it's getting real, I think I'll stay in bed

Some Say 04:07
Some say it's getting Better, I think they're mostly rich I think it's getting worse now, it's true I like to bitch Gonna bleed a while, when it's red enough I know it's gonna switch Some say there is no sadness, they sing and dance and laugh and preach Some say he's on his way now, I know they’re out of reach But I've been a whale and I know just whom you cannot teach Some say it's all in your head, Some say that nothing is Some say it's just a toothbrush, Some say it's just a bridge If I would be a fly on your wall you know I wouldn't flap a wing If I had been your ma, all night long you know I wouldn’t sleep a wink
6.
What's wrong with me it's plain to see My plane has crashed into your sea Well I like your water but I wonder who's been swimming here with me What's wrong with you, you wouldn't say I got to know the rules if you want me to play Well I got a feeling creeping in that you ain't gonna stay You ain’t nothing but a flea looking for a dog You ain't nothing but a wart looking for a hog Living off of legends, going around kissing frogs What I know I can't tell I'd rather have wings then a tail And that if you want to live then you have got to sell

No matter how hard you try to Get lost Everybody wants to be Found

Should've 02:37
I should have walked her to her car I should have shown her the north star But by the time I found my shoe I was already way too blue I should have tuned up her guitar I should have shown her my old scar But the world it moves too fast I couldn't make that moment last Show me something holier than fear God knows that love is nowhere near Take my precious lost moments and dust them outta here I shouldn't have opened up that drawer She probably heard it all before Yes I could tell she was getting bored, I started feeling kind of sore Sweat running out of every pore, Crying lord there must be more It can't all be such a bore, Shouting I declare a war Started crawling on the floor She was headed for the door

Well I been trying to get some sleep but the sofa's too short From inside the aquarium I see the old train court The master of the ceremony opens and closes the doors His eyes are red he keeps his eye drops locked in a drawer And I'm praying on a bird to come and take me away I'm praying on great big bird to come and take me away Well inside the aquarium the water's too hot I try to get out but the doors are all locked I'm trying to pray but it seems I'd forgotten the words I wanna cry out loud but I seem to be missing my head And I'm wishing on a whale to come and swallow me whole I'm wishing on a great big whale to come and swallow me whole Well inside the aquarium I'm trying to sleep In the distance I spy as if in a dream A whale coming towards me and he's quiet and gentle and green And I slide inside and it's cosy and clean In the back room my love is waiting for me When she smiles I feel like the whole world is smiling at me

Mishehu Aher 03:45
לפעמים אני שוכח, לפעמים אני פשוט לא זוכר האם אני עדיין בגטו, האם אני רק השומר האם אני לפני או מאחורי הגדר כי זה לא באמת קורה כל עוד זה קורה למישהו אחר לפעמים אתה שותק כששואלים לדעתך לפעמים אתה צועק ואין מי שישמע אותך מישהו רוצה משהו זה בטח לא עניינך כי זה לא באמת קורה עד שזה קורה לך

Hey sugarcane tell me no lie, where will you run to when the water runs high? To have it your way I'll see you in the pines There's too much to lose now for me to have mine There's no need to fear, no need to hide, open your window and let me inside I will hear you out, I'll swallow your pride I'll row the high seas, I'll ride the high tide Can't you tell by my eyes that I'm done telling lies When you say you don't need me no more, I think you just forgot Call me a fake, call me a liar, all me a traitor if that's what you're like But my heart's on my sleeve, my feet on high ground I've plucked all my feathers, I've shot all my rounds Can't you tell by my lies that I've lost both my eyes When you say you don't need me no more I think you just forgot And oh how the time flies by, and oh how the winds do howl A bird without wings, a fly with no eyes, a hand without fingers, a choice without a price A book without leaves, a cry with no sound, a wheel with no axis, a land with no past Hey brother cane, tell me no lie, where will you run to when the water runs high?
