Lyrics:
In a lake in the summer
I came upon
An empty bottle of coke
I freed the rat that was stuck in it
Got a light it asked me
I don’t play with fire anymore
God appears in flames and scares me into listening
I’ll do anything
God wills or tells me
So I can bring Abraham
Up to heaven with me
And when god is sleeping
Trusts us completely
I’ll end him I’ll end him
Replace him with Abraham
I have seen
Rare animals
Beautiful endangered birds
On the side of the road
The spirit of the forest spread across the highway
This is the broken promise
This the last laugh
The mark clings
To my forehead
An infected tick bite
They called it a kiss
A curse

Lyrics:
I’m looking at your post
About how the world is broken
And needs my attention right now
You are some profile
Another empty shell
Telling me where to yell
I want to be a good person
And silence is the killer
I’ve made so much noise
But It just makes it hard to hear the people who still feel
The people who know what their talking about
Touch the phone and watch
A butcher dissect a dog
Some guy in new york plays a custom guitar
Children coughing dust in their mothers arms
A pixelated frame from an episode of Spongebob
Sleek infographics trying to turn my brain off
Pictures of my friend's dad, sorry for your loss
So grateful for my fans
Police just shot another innocent man
Tour dates for a band
How to express my dog's glands
A home turned to dust
A field of bodies shot
Seen so much I believe I could never do enough
I want to be a good person
And silence is the killer
I’ve made so much noise
But It just makes it hard to hear
The people who still feel
The people who know what they're talking about
At the park I saw a man smacking his dog around
Now I’d seen too much
Shouted abuse till he turned around
And so far as I can tell, all he saw in my eyes Was another empty shell
Seen so much I believe I could never do enough

Lyrics:
CRYING IN THE TUB TODAY
Wow
It Sucks
Sometimes you wipe your friends off
And spread
The pain
We just want to be OK
I thought I’d bail on my friends
And win the internet
My message matters more than them
My message builds a bridge
I guess not
I guess not
Fixing the fortress I owe the bank
far enough away to use half a tank
So far I’m so far
I messed up
I messed up
I’m telling my wife she let me down
And doing nothing at all to help her out
What about me I say
Her dad just passed away
Almost broke my hand holding you down that hill
And all of this pulling just to control when you kill
Leave that bird, your dinner’s served
A whole Chicken coop in each scoop
Throw the treat down on the ground and sing
Ooh oo whoa oh
F our feet on the floor rejoice with me
Ooh oo whoa oh
Now you can have friends
Now you can sniff their pee
won’t be crying in the tub today
WARM ON THE HEART
Here we wait for the call
Any minute now
When we skip through the day
Yeah we fall
I could break off a leg
I will break and be dead
Now that’s all that I want
But I never want to end
Daddy it’s true
I gave up on you
I didn’t want to huh
I didn’t want to huh
I didn’t want to hur
I didn’t want to hurt
I didn’t want to hurt you
Baby by the TV Four warm arms around me Rocking slow and soft
Here we wait for the call
Any minute no-ow
When we skip through the day
Yeah we fall
I could break off a leg
I will break and be dead
Now that’s all that I want
But I never want to end
Up looking at life like
How did I get so lonely
When I knew so many people in school
Who cared about me
Changing on a table
Looking for the remote
Watching face on sick days
No one called me lazy
Singing in a day dream
No one tried to stop me
Growing up in a fantasy
Never again
I am stressed out now
I was stressed out then
What are you doing with your time
Could you be so much better right
Here we wait for the call
Any minute no-ow
When we skip through the day
Yeah we fall
I could break off a leg
I will break and be dead
Now that’s all that I want
But I never want to
NERVOUS ABOUT MY DOG'S COLON
Feeling shaken daily by these new things
I’m shaking hands like I think nothings wrong
Take a day to see me now your leaving
Can’t go to you less I bring my dog
Used to stroll around with my hands empty
I guess I worried for the whole walk
Now they’re full of love that weighs so heavy
I get anxious pulling it along
To me, I’m a dad now
To the world I’m not
Loving our doggy
Is the purest thing we’ve got
See me wailing in my bed and wishing
Wishing the tears would come I’m sick of holding on
I’m looking at the tired eyes around me
Everyone I know feels hopeless now
Can love can love
See when you know it’s true or clicking for treats again
And oh true or not you will be my friend you will be my friend will you be my friend
We can fight with love like in the movies
I think that’s something I will tell myself
Cause i Used to fear the alleyways and dark streets
Now I’m scared of people who don’t know
Love can love
See when you know it’s true or clicking for treats again
And oh true or not you will be my friend you will be my friend will you be my friend
TWO FUN GUYS
I’ve been going on vacation with my friend
We’ve been growing up and chasing what we’re tasting
The plumber arrived
She was nice
She brought a ball for my dog to bite
She had a dog too
They took the dog to doggy daycare while they had a party
9 to 5 plumbing all the time
I’ve been going on vacation with my friend
We’ve been getting old and choking while we grab the road
Oh it’s so hard to be
A caring soul
When you’ve got to go
Where’d you go?
I’ve been going on vacation with my friend
He’s been chewing on my arm while I ignore him
Risked it
I let him sniff the mail carrier on our front step
He didn’t bark, he just jumped and kissed
Jumped and kissed
I reallized this
Wow the plumber helped him out
Just met a person he could tell his friends about
He’s been going on vacation with his friend
I know enough to satiate his demons
You know it’s so hard to be
A caring soul
When you’ve got to go
Oh he pulls me into the pond and I love him so
