Out With the Bees

Hive mind, they set on a daily grind
From their honey filled home
Of dripping, dropping catacombs
Through her yellow, blonde hair
That's blowin', breezin' everywhere
She got an army of drones
And you cannot fight the pheromones
She's always out with the bees
Outside our little hive down by the sea
And it's love living below the bourgeoisie
But she don't mind about that
Just so long as she's out with the bees
The swarm has grown
It's building, buzzin', overflowing
Now I feel the sting
And all the voices that it brings
She's my queen
As she's blowin' out a smokey screen
When she gets home
She's greeted by ten-thousand drones
She's always out with the bees
Outside our little hive down by the sea
And it's love living below the bourgeoisie
But she don't mind about that
Just so long as she's out with, out with the bees
She's always out with the bees
Outside our little hive down by the sea
And it's love living below the bourgeoisie
But she don't mind about that
Just so long as she's out with the bees

Amazing

She, she brightens up the world around
Me, I'm scared of what to do without
When the fog burns off my heart it skips a beat
Now I know that it's a cliché
But when I see her...
Oh, what am I to do
She smiles so beautifully
Me, I'm hoping that she stands by me
'Cause the bad part of my day is when she fades out
Now I'm walking such a thin line, not to get in her way
So I'll be mature
And I'll wait
As long as it takes
Or until you tell me there's no hope, well okay
I just want you to know
You are so amazing
She, she puts the flowers into bloom
Me, I think I fertilized my doom
'Cause I'm scared that I care just a little too much it seems
Fuck my caffeine cutbacks
For her, I'd harvest coffee beans
And if the café is the only place that I
Get to feel her sunshine
Baby then I, I will open a coffee shop
And I'll wait
As long as it takes
Or until you tell me there's no hope, well okay
I just want you to know
I think you are so amazing
I feel your energy for miles
You thaw my winter heart so gently
You just let me down but still
I think you are so amazing
And I really, really like you
Yeah I really, really like you
And when my mind is set adrift
I think of all the things I've missed
When do my head and concrete mix
And knock some sense into me
But I know my love is damaged
You'd think that I could make you panic
And all I really wanna do
Is take you and me and divide by two
And then wait
As long as it takes
Or until you tell me there's no hope, well okay
I just want you to know
I think you are so amazing
I feel your energy for miles
You thaw my winter heart so gently
Tear me down so slow
I think you are so amazing
Yeah I really, really like you
Yeah I really, really like you

The Real Girl

How does she stay so the same?
While this body is rotting away with the sun
Little love, love is dripping from the ceiling
I wanna touch you but I can't take the feeling
So cold on the road, you're seeing gold
A splash from the dope smoke as it hits your throat
And now she's stretching from the floor to the ceiling
She wanna touch you but she can't take the feeling
She was flashbacking through a crush
Took drugs on a rollercoaster
Smoke and watch the waves
Your head, my head on my shoulders
I wanna help you but I don't think you need it
You try and touch me but I can't seem to feel it

Sender
03:54

Every single time I get a message
The sender stays secret for half a second
Now construction has stopped inside my being
Climbing the chair to test the ceiling
She stops my heartstrings and starts right over
Attach me to my car so I drove her
And as we head to the south, it's more like hell
I'm starting to see that's why she's falling
Out of love with me
'Cause I'm just so broke
And I get smoked out every day
To keep a cold witch from dancing
All over my brain
Now I hate this apartment complex
'Cause you still haunt me here
So all of the mail that comes for you
I tear it apart 'cause you tore me too
And I'm so focused on ticky-tacky
And now you're giving up cause you
You hate to try me
Well, fuck all the boys that you're gonna meet
I hope they can handle all your secrets
'Cause I'm just so broke
And I get smoked out every day
To keep a cold witch from dancing
All over my brain
And I love to choke
To feel the grip strength over my veins
And my blood's constricted
Am I going insane?
I'm going insane
All over my brain
All over my brain
All over my brain
We quit, quicker than you ever became my girl
I know you didn't want
To spend your time just tolerating
I tried, but I couldn't see
All the good that leaves if I set you free
And now you're just a memory
We quit, quicker than you ever became my girl
I know you didn't want
To spend your time tolerating
I tried, but I couldn't see
All the good that leaves if I set you free
You're only just a memory
'Cause I'm just so broke
And I get smoked out every day
To keep a cold witch from dancing
All over my brain
And I love to choke
To feel the grip strength over my veins
And my blood's constricted
Am I going insane?
Am I going insane?
Am I going insane?
I'm going insane
All over my brain
All over my brain
All over my brain

Hangman

Hangman coming
Gonna take me away
I've seen no justice
For all my days
A death toll ringing
I'm on the run
The rope man singing
"Your days are done"
Need to see my lady
Gonna reach my baby
'For the law arrives
Too tired to run
Let's sleep
Dream of the river
'For the law arrives
He knows my secrets
He's seen my ways
The lawman buried me
So far away
In a concrete cell block
I wait for noon
with the hangman sneering
"Your days are doomed"
In that crowd, my lady
Wanna see my baby for the final time
In that crowd, my lady
She's the only one with salty eyes
Flashback baby through a time so crazy
We were old but we were so alive
Flashback baby to a time
When we maybe could have changed our lives
Sixteen summers, and the sound of thunder
Ringing softly through the blood-red sky
Sixteen summers, in the rain
That washes off my dark disguise
Slow-motion, through the front door
You come visit me at my house
