On a Tuesday at 2
A few days before New Years
You picked me up in your car
I was wearing all black
You were wearing all purple
And we looked like two bruises
Running so far.

I just ran to the DMV, to the DMV, to the DMV
I just ran to the DMV and no one there liked me.
No one there liked me, at the DMV
No one there liked me, at the DMV
Because I was sweaty, because I was sweaty
Nobody liked me at the DMV
I’m a licensed driver and I need to find out how
I can re-license it in Connecticut and how do I get a parking pass And extra parking passes for my friends
I just ran to the DMV, to the DMV, to the DMV
I just ran to the DMV and no one there liked me.
No one there liked me, I was so sweaty
I was so sweaty at the DMV.

Three Important Words
01:47
|
|||
|
i can count to a thousand
i can count to a million
and i count on knowing
when to turn and run
i can count my footsteps
and i can count the miles
but i'm not keeping score with you, my love
they'll tell you it's not worth it
they'll tell you let it go
but three little words
will always make the difference
i was right
i was right
fuck you assholes
i was right
i was right
fuck you losers
i was right
you will never catch me
and i'll never get away
but i didn't steal a thing
that wasn't mine
this was not a contest
and that was not a win
the important thing to remember
is i was right

Total Fucking Drag
01:08
|
|||
|
i'm not angry
i swear i'm not upset
no one has ever been less bothered than me
i'm not bitter
and i have no regrets
cause i send them out to float in empty bottles
put me in a dress
and pull me on a leash
cause livin here's a total fuckin drag
tell me i can't live that way
and tell me i'll be sorry
i'm just sorry you're not getting paid
to sing your song
as blue as lake michigan
and as short as a january day
put me in a dress
and watch me strut and twirl
and i will stay as long as you call me pretty
pull me on a leash
and i will always beg for you
if you kick this dog she'll love you twice as hard

In Praise of Motion

Once was a girl who bought some skates
So she could skate away
And the faster she would go, the more she felt okay
And the faster she would go, the more she felt okay
And when the girl was on her bike
Her anger went away
Wheels turned to wings and she took flight
She rode it everyday
Wheels turned to wings and she took flight
She rode it everyday
Oh where oh where does your sorrow go when you stay in one place? You can try to lie, you can try to hide but we see it in your face You can try to lie
You can try to hide
but we see it in your face
Once was a girl who wrote a song, the words did take her far But not as far as she could go behind the wheel of her own car Behind the wheel of her own car
Oh where oh where does your anger go, when you are standing still You promised one day you’d slow down
But we know you never will
But we know you never will.

Life is Hard

life is hard
and the end is far
it won't get easier
life is hard
you can run
but your demons have cars
start your engines
life is hard
is redemption
in the cards?'
deal at sunrise
life is hard
all i wanted
was to play my guitar
and it was worth it
but life is hard
vengeance lives
like a roach in my heart
and i won't evict him
cause life is hard

The River Song
02:23
|
|||
|
a river runs between our bones in a city that weeps
and every night and every day we hear it
way down by the riverbank we were the word and the deed
and you dared me to leap in the water
i'll be 29 forever
until i become anybody else
even if i never hear your voice again
every footstep echoes with your name
there's a trail by the railroad tracks in a place we called home
and every mile was a little bit tougher
the bridge we came to crossing was just nails and bones
safer not to cross it together
i'll be 29 forever
until i become anybody else
even if i never hear your voice again
every footstep echoes with your name
and every night i catch my face in the dressing room mirror
and every night i'm closer to dying
but i'm not chasing yesterday and i don't need more time
until it's time to leap in the river

Sleep for Sofia
02:10
|
|||
|
She watches clouds growing gray in they sky
She took pictures of them back in the fall
But now she finds no beauty there
It’s too early for sleep
But to late for a call
Each end of the day
Is the start of a play
Though her eyelids close like curtains
Will sleep come
Or will dreams fade away
And can peace be ever certain
Sleep for my Sophia
I demand from the moon
If rest could be lent i’d let you borrow
Borrow my sleep
My sleep sweet Sophia and let me be the tired one tomorrow
