Moonlit Road

this concession road
tree line beside it
the din of toads
feeling lucid
a midnight stroll
moonlit road
heart needs mending
my life's been thrown
the road is bending
do you feel alright
not knowing where it goes
where's it go?
its alright
I don't have to find my way the first time
just go step by step ditch by ditch
I can stay in my rut
or I can get off of my butt
go bit by bit
step by step
since walking down that road
every once and awhile
I see how I've grown
a spurt measured in miles
what my action show
life's not set in stone
I've made my mistakes
expected my life to implode
had my share of heart breaks
and I always figured
that's how it goes
how's it go?
its alright
I don't have to find my way the first time
just go step by step inch by inch
I can follow this map
or I can forge my own path
go bit by bit
step by step
now on prospect street
things are looking up
life is sweet
not waiting to fuck up
bit by bit cut out the bull shit
I'll keep wandering
and finding the best parts of me
I think its another turning point for me
I think its another turning point for me
its alright
I don't have to find my way the first time
just go bit by bit
by and by
its alright
We don't find our way the first time
we go bit by bit
step by step

Red-Winged Blackbird

Bird came to my window
And said "what the hell!?!
Remember the cattails and trees and all the tall grass and reeds?
It's all gone! Replaced by odd-looking nests
Full of humans, concrete and mess..."
My reply was an apology
"I'm not in charge of their death machines"
Bird said, "by the red of my wing -
they'll learn not to fuck with me!"
Go away! Or I'll dive-bomb at your eyes
Go away! Or I'll crap on your tie
Go away! I'll rain death down from the skies
Go away, yeah yeah, this is where I draw the line!
The neighbourhood watch (go away!)
Spies Bird's flock from the corner of their eyes
As wings whip, bodies bump
Beaks rip and claws go straight for their rumps
Go away! Or I'll dive-bomb at your eyes
Go away! Or I'll crap on your tie
Go away! I'll rain death down from the skies
Go away, yeah yeah, this is where I draw the line!

What Would Remind You?
03:39

Have you lost your wonder?
Living jaded and plain
Are you a destroyer?
Ever buying and insane
Whatever happened to
Jumping from the swings,
Doing what you choose,
And making toys from anything?
Forgetting isn't growing up
Selling your time's not growing up
A life's a lot to give up
Don't you know it's yours?
Don't you know it?
What would remind you?
What would remind you?
What would remind you?
What would remind you?
Do you submit your vote?
For the best of two weasels
Do you feel a tickle in your throat?
From the passing diesels
What ever happened to
The snowball arms race,
All the pranks you used,
And finding a secret place
Forgetting isn't growing up
Selling your time's not growing up
A life's a lot to give up
Don't you know it's yours?
Don't you know it?
It's hard to watch you fading away
And getting sicker everyday
You want to say it's not your fault
Letting life give way just to be an adult
What ever happened to you?
Have you forgotten?
