Keep Your Friends Close Why'd you leave yourself alone, When all your friends are close to home? Why'd you say you would change? I am leaving yesterday. Keep your friends close.

Why so blind, To the world outside our city walls? Why so occupied, With a daily dose of ads and lies? They're feeding us cancer, Now open wide. We're the epidemic, Tillers of the soil. There's no time to panic, The water's about to boil. We're the epidemic (x4) If you think you really own it, You'll pay the price, my friend, I tend to look at what we've done, It makes me cry, And cry, And cry... We're the epidemic (x4)

All I have to do is, Bend these stubborn thoughts and, Cradle all my loves and, Dig through all these webbed layers of, Every little tiny thing that frustrates me endlessly, Grating, pointless parts of me, Hoarding all my energy. I can make them go away, Just give me strength and set a day. Knowing me is hard enough so, Make me warm and feel my constant, Need to be more than I show I've, Opened up what's been left alone, Pry it from my wandering bones, Question all I've come to know. Reason with my inner self, and Sort out why I'm back in Guelph. Tend to what I tend to be, Under this warm bear you see, Vulnerable and timidly, Watching people walk through me...

In Time 05:05
So you think you're so goddamn clever, Well I've go news for you, my friend. All the filth you push, and you peddle, Won't amount to shit, When you see what Momma's got in store for you, It won't be long, You will fall, in time. What will you do, When the lights go out and the market's dry? Will you run and hide, Or will you fight to survive? I know you won't last long. You were like wolves, But now the wolves, they'll hunt you... I feel this is just what we need, Loss of power for those who make us bleed, I hope you rot in hell for all your greed.

Took a walk from the camp, Down the road to where the forest breathes, Windy whispers of... Holy goddamn innocence. Sat me down, In the underbrush. Smoked me a bowl, Of some magical dust. Held it in, And when I breathed, I let go of... Everything I had known. But there was something that, Called me forth to, Understand everything, But I failed to comprehend. I was filled with astonishment, Felt so blissful and so complete, I could see, All the life, Glow so beautifully. Just as it should, always. But I was torn from it, And thrown back into my, Former consciousness, Oh god I'm so lost...

I Ran 04:57
I woke as you dressed, To take the dogs though, I lied still and silent, Pretending to not exist. The door shut behind you, And I was gone, Before you came back. I collected my things, In a clumsy daze. Stumbling about, With whisky still in my veins. Left the bottle on the counter, And my toothbrush in the bathroom, But I've still got, And I've still got my bag, And my smokes, And that's all I need. Well I'm not one to run, But dammit I, Just don't think I can, Even look at you right now. Well we were perfect in the kitchen, But we fell apart in your bed.

For Sonia 04:17
I go to sleep when I get home, So I can dream of you. Love me like you say you do, And hold me like I hold you. When I see you with him, I become so afraid, Deep in my head. I fall so far from the simple truth: Be patient and it will all unfold before you.
10.
My Apologies 04:04
I can't begin, To say how sorry I am. None of the powers within me, Could pry her jaws, From it's flesh. Oh, her eyes will, Forever haunt me. With the shrill and, Seemingly endless cries, Fading to a slow. Please don't ask me anymore. Oh, her eyes! So wide in fright! The birds and the house and, The glass and the branch that, Broke on my back. All the things beyond my, Sense of control, Have left me with a case, That is void of a soul. I placed it by the tree, That sits behind my shed, And waited for you to come to my door, So I could begin to say I'm sorry.
