Rom-coms commend quirky men
I could be your guinea pig
Use me use me use me use me like a tissue
I can find no issue with the thought of being used
It’s all the same
Goodbye love
Goodbye love
Keep knockin’
Keep knockin’
Spilled milk makes the world go ‘round
Gravity holds us down
She and I are well-acquainted
A symbiotic relationship
It’s parasitic, it’s parasitic
Who would want to live like this
If you need a home, if you need a home
I know where to go
Funk Island
Is the place to be
You can live like you're thirteen
Funk Island
Is the place to be
You can live like you're thirteen
By being afraid, by being afraid
You lose your sight on what you can be
By being afraid, by being afraid
I don’t even know
Funk Island

Recoil

A man left with nothing to do
Walks the earth to torment you
His diet consists of mainly things ranging from tears to broken dreams
You shoot us down, but you forgot about recoil
The recoil
You shoot us down, but you forgot
The recoil
We moved away to a hiding place
Yet his spirit still remains
Playing back Beatles tracks to find something that isn’t there
You shoot us down, but you forgot about the recoil
The recoil
You shoot us down, but you forgot
The recoil
That was the last straw that broke the camel’s back
Get prepared for mass
Burn it down like a pyromaniac
Get prepared for mass
Keep this in your front pocket and never let it disappear
I will only tell you honestly only if you…

Just like a flower, beauty tends to wither
Light up the fire under the water
It won’t stop and you can’t make it stop
My friend you’re in your head
It won’t stop and you can’t make it stop
My friend you’re in your head
The idols are in your head
Living off water and saltines
Trying to fit that figurine
You can’t even look me in the eye
They have washed you down
It won’t stop and you can’t make it stop
My friend you’re in your head
It won’t stop and you can’t make it stop
My friend you’re in your head
The idols are in your head
It can stop and you can make it stop
My friend you’re in your head
It can stop and you can make it stop
My friend you’re in your head
The idols are in your head

Do I need to bleach my hair?
Do I need to sing this low?
Do I need to act like I don’t care?
If I don’t, could you please tell me so?
You set the bomb off David and now that you’re gone
I’ll keep you in my head, I’ll keep you in my head
David, you set the damn bomb off
Look at what you’ve done to me
You’ve left me here in shambles
The man in the mirror isn’t me
A man defined by looks, not his symphony
And don’t tell me to go, tell me to lie, tell me to say no
You set the bomb off David and now that you’re gone
I’ll keep you in my head, I’ll keep you in my head
David, you set the damn bomb off
Look at what you’ve done to me
You’ve left me here in shambles
Take me in your tin can Starman
Take me in your tin can Starman
Take me in your tin can Starman
Take me in your tin can
You set the bomb off David and now that you’re gone
I’ll keep you in my head, I’ll keep you in my head
David, you set the damn bomb off
Look at what you’ve done to me
You’ve left me here in shambles
And don’t tell me to go, tell me to lie, tell me to say no
Oh David

Odyssey

The son turns to dad and asks for the forecast
Man has torn the firmament
Choose to ignore the cracks that break your mama’s back
Your Big Mac’s and Cadillacs
Take each other’s hands, and walk on through the storm
United we will stand, divided we will fall
So come back, so come back
As the rain begins to fall, I’ll follow you back home
Because I need you safe
As the clouds fade away, I’ll keep the cobwebs hanging
Because they reassure me
Take each other’s hands, and walk on through the storm
United we will stand, divided we will fall
So come back, so come back
And is it gonna be just fine when God has given up?
Who are you, and what do you want from me?
I see it in my dreams, it was only yesterday
Oh and what do you want from me?

I want to be the spectator
Not the participant
And just because my body’s here
Doesn’t mean my mind is
You see, I’ve got some things to do
Like clean my fish and feed my room
I see why you may think that way
Storms will come and fade away
But fossil records of the past
Show that bruises last
So keep on keep on keep on trying
Keep on keep on till your dying breath
Our lives are in your hands
Here comes Joyboy to save our souls
Son forgive us
Slash and burn the mess that we’ve made
The Firestarter
But Joyboys are in short supply
We have only ourselves
To rely on
I see why you may think that way
Storms will come and fade away
But fossil records of the past
Show that bruises last
So keep on keep on keep on trying
Keep on keep on till your dying breath
Our lives are in your hands
Our lives are in OUR hands

Remember me?
We were friends
I guess that time has taken its hold once again
I’m a castaway
On a salty sea
Floating aimlessly somewhere in-between
Laugh at me, toy with me, but don’t smile at me
If only I could split myself in two
I could make my own best friend
And I don’t go out that much anymore
Because why would I?
These are the best days of my life
I’ll be anything you want love
Just do me a favor, don’t be a stranger
When all turns to dust
As I begin to build my home, I am ushered out
A new beginning with the same old feelings
The fault is all my own
Laugh at me, toy with me, but don’t smile at me
If only I could split myself in two
I could make my own best friend
And I don’t go out that much anymore
Because why would I?
These are the best days of my life
Leave it all behind
I’ve never been for giving up
I’ve never been for giving up
But what is there to give up?
Pick your poison
It doesn’t matter in the end
It doesn’t matter in the end
Is there even an end? (x ∞)
I’m left out, I’m left out
I’m left out, I’m left out
I’m left out, I’m left out
I need a new best friend
And I don’t go out that much anymore
Because why would I?
Oh these are the best days of my life (my life)
Oh these are the best days of my life (my life)
Oh these are the best days of my life
