![]() ![]() a sleep so deep we thought he was dead
1. packaged with fluff
Angst and aggression and bottled compassion
It's squared off and packaged and sold to the masses
When money's what maters what gets sales gets pushed
Emotion is nothing til packaged with fluff
Fear and confusion and mixed-up delusion
Caked on make-up makes up the illusion
That money's what matters what gets sales is great
Your life's worth nothing til measured in goods
I am an individual I'm not a statistic, I'm part of society--society's not part of me
If imitation's suicide then punk's already dead, punk's already dead, punk's already dead, punk's already dead
Man makes mistakes and you must let him make them
Give him advice but let him learn by abrasion
Earth explodes in a battle of bad vs. worse
And your cutting words won't heal
The sheltered forget that outside it's raining
Inside the world has never stopped spinning
The beauty of nothing, the wisdom of roads, the feeling of loving
I gave myself to you
Why were you lying and staunchly denying that I am your plaything
You never really cared
Eyelids are closing and my mouth hangs open
Your silence speaks louder than anything you've said
Sorrow fills the night air like hot coffee at Omega and I dread going to the end but I can't stay where I am
Sunken dreams mopped up from soaked tear-stained floors and I'm lost
2. alone with company
We tiptoe through the rose patch to smell the flowers without getting pricked but we always stumble, always fall
At least one time
Well a tear in the eye is worth 1 million in the heart and a dry eye-even more
The saddest are those who can't cry-they'll never know how much they hurt
Tonite I feel so happy that I never want to die
Tonite I kill myself so it's the last thing I remember
Because everything gets worse from where I stand, Alone
I don't cry for me, I cry for you
How you must've felt, killing me
If love causes pain and pain causes growth I am 1 million feet tall
I loved you. Alone? You were never alone when I was there
Let's get coffee
A movie
A night to ourselves
Life's full of not-enough-time, not enough time for us
And then we die, and get shoved in boxes, and decay
Until no one thinks about us
Ever
Again
Til death did we part
Amen.
3. the art of killing time
Take two days to analyze your thoughts
And I'll take forty-eight hours trying not to hate you
It seems like the best thing for me
You make the nights feel longer
You make my stomach feel stronger
I want to be the last thing you ever see
I'm trying so hard not to hate you
But it's so hard to wait for you
I'm trying so hard not to hate you
But it's so hard to wait
