A Trip Unto Bountiful

(I'm gonna D-down tune. [cough]
K? We're rolling, yes?
This is called 'A Trip Unto Bountiful')

waiting
goddamn waiting
and we'll argue
and we'll laugh

starting
I'm starving
waiting
then I'm there

I will be done
I will be return

on this rooftop
I am
one step closer to you
and the pain

reaching
reaching the middle
of you
who are you

I will be done
I will return
I will be done
I will return



C'mon

yeah yeah
c'mon c'mon
yeah yeah
c'mon c'mon

you'll awake agape
wondering what to say

yeah yeah
c'mon c'mon

when you're feeling real slow
and you're reeling from the show
when you're reaching from the floor
then you're seeing you out the door

yeah yeah
yeah yeah
c'mon c'mon

I can't find a day
wondering who I'll meet

when you're feeling real slow
and you're reeling from the show
ain't looking for trouble
ain't looking to see
just want a motherfucker like you and me
c'mon
yeah
yeah



Daughter

hands that offer
hands that take
someone's daughter
taking me
take me away

in the water
just like a snake
someone's daughter
hidden down
sleep away

and you feel you've been abused
all your life
your love
and truth



East

tried to tell her who I really am
but I'm not so sure that I really can
well you've got to know I don't understand
well you've got to know who I really am

give me one more chance

as a child I once had a dream
my mother spoke something down to me
she said
son you must walk upon your knees
down the road headed for the east

give me one more chance
give me one more chance

if I had a way to go I'd gather up my throwing stone

tried to tell her who I really am
but I'm not so sure that I really can
well you've got to know I don't understand
'cause I'm not so sure who I really am

if I had a way to go I'd gather up my throwing stone
if I had a way to go I'd gather up my throwing stone



East (Alternate)

try to reason who I really am
'cause I'm not so sure that I really can
well you've got to know I don't understand
'cause I'm not so sure who I really am

give me one more chance

as a child, I once had a dream
my mother spoke something down to me
she said
son you must walk upon your knees
down the road headed for the east

give me one more chance
give me one more chance

if I had a way to go, I'd gather up my throwing stone

try to tell her who I really am
but I'm not so sure that I really can
well you've got to know I don't understand
'cause I'm not so sure who I really am

if I had a way to go, I'd gather up my throwing stone
if I had a way to go, I'd gather up my throwing stone



Egg

and you're bluffing
'cause your eyes weren't born to see
something
go ask Job

if you're blinded
the shield will solve alone
safe to say
go ask Job

she said all things would end
change your ways
I love you

when you're nothing
when your eyes weren't born to see
something
go ask Job



I Am One Part II

like the sun yeah I am one
raising forth when I'm done
so high
in the sky

and we'd say what we'd say
and we'd do as we please
and we'd break every rule
on our knees

like the sun yeah I am one
raising forth when I'm done
what you wait for in the sky
high up high

and we'd break every rule
and we'd do as we please
and we'd drink what we want
on our knees



Jennifer Ever

she always waits for someone
someone who'll never leave
revealing her decision
her arms cover me

my couple no one
to anyone believe
she always waits for someone
someone
someone just like me

Jennifer
Jennifer ever
Jennifer

Jennifer always tells me
please don't be afraid
I only want to hold you
I only want you to stay

my couple no one
to anyone believe
she always waits for someone
someone
someone just like me

Jennifer
Jennifer ever
Jennifer

Jennifer
Jennifer ever
Jennifer

my couple no one
to anyone believe
she always waits for someone
someone
someone just like me

Jennifer
Jennifer ever
Jennifer



Love

want you here
'cause I'm your man

when you love
do you love
you're only wishing
are you listening
when you love
do you love
she was listening
she was listening

'cause it's easy
it's so easy
to fall readily
or he won't fail you
and let you down
let you down
with your crown

hypnotized
through these eyes
love inside
it lies

seems like a dream
it'll go insane
to rain
through this umbrella



Nothing And Everything

hiding behind my hair today
my eyes dance with fire
the thought of living here
and the bounds I transpire
walking in this slow-motion now
I seem to think so fast

standing with your mannequin
I try to hold my breath

the grave that bears my name
was found in a dream
I dream immortality
and I fall in vain

'cause as long as I don't breathe
I'll never be like them

standing with your mannequin
I try to hold my breath

if you'd go and I would stay
and you would call my name
I would cry yes I would cry
walking in or walking out
is the same as talking about my heart
my heart

hiding behind my hair today
wishing I was far away
walking in this slow-motion now
I seem to think so fast

standing with your mannequin
I try to hold my breath

if you'd go and I would stay
and you would call my name
I would cry yes I would cry
walking in or walking out
Is the same as talking about my heart
my heart

if you'd go and I would stay
and you would call my name
I would cry yes I would cry

if you'd go and I would stay
and you would call my name
I would die yes I would die
walking in or walking out
is the same as talking about my heart
my heart



Pshycodelic

taking my time
taking everything I have
losing my mind
losing everything I have

who do you want to be?
you want satisfaction you can't receive
who do you want to be?
you want satisfaction you can't receive

harder to find
easy to just walk away
losing my mind
lost everything I had
that I had
that I had

that I had

who do you want to be?
you want satisfaction you can't receive
how many times will you leave?
you want sati-satifaction you can't receive

(if I crossed that line
would you want to move?)



Rhinoceros (Alternate)

planned a show

She

she will never ever go
waiting for her man
waiting for her man

she will never ever know
waiting for her time
waiting for her time

wall to wall I hear the noise
standard in her voice
simple in her choice

she is everything
monday to tuesday
wednesday's another game
praying for sunday

I'm the one she swore she'd never love
I'm the one I know she's thinking of

she will never ever burn
waiting for her town
waiting for her town

she will never ever sit
waiting for her game
waiting for her game

she

standard in her voice
simple in her choice

I'm the one I know she's thinking of

she is everything
monday to tuesday
wednesday's another game
praying for sunday

monday to tuesday
wednesday's another game
praying for sunday



Snap (If I Could)

I'll break
someone somewhere
to show
how big I am
you know
I'm not sorry
I'll take
everything

I wouldn't give you
the time of day
you were my only
what can I say

not alone now
'cause it's not alone

you'd beg
me to save her
to show
me the way

I wouldn't give you away
away

I wouldn't give you
the time of day
you were my only
what can I say

'cause I'm not alone



Spiteface

your words will one day spite your face
and another mouth will come and take its place
it'll speak and speak and speak and sputter me dry
I will never understand the motive drive

muck... you... up... muck

in a dream I wander on
to the bell tower
writing songs
so I crumple this page
and rip it up
never piece my broken heart to you

muck... you... up... muck

your words will one day spite your face
and another mouth will come and take its place
it'll speak and speak and speak and sputter me dry
I will never understand the motive drive

muck...

your words
will spite your face
your words
will spite your face

spiteface
spiteface
spiteface
spiteface



Stars Fall In

I know this room just crumbled like a tomb
surrender to the day that I made

the stars fall in
the stars fall in

don't waste it
you're not simple

when my head swells just like a balloon
so soon I must realize
one by one we're dangerous
now lead us to blasphemy
the stars fall in

I want to touch your soul complete
higher than I'd ever want to be
come along with me

over the edge and over to the shelf
gravity shoves and realigns
what I've done confronts me whole
looking into words and songs

the stars fall in
the stars fall in
the stars fall in

...ok!



Sun

what it wants
is for more years
moving tears of pain
must I go into your
hiding room
you'll be lost today

walking in the sun
I'll never feel the light
walking in the sun
I'll never feel

why
your confusion haunts me still
my will it'll reign
must I go into your
hiding room
you'll be lost today

walking in the sun
I'll never feel the light
walking in the sun
I'll know that I never feel
walking in the sun
I never feel the light
walking in my sun
I know that I never feel



With You

low
low so low
with you

go
go I'll go
with you
with you

take
take me somewhere
wake me
dream somewhere

and your peelin' back your eyes
some disguise
trouble you just can't hide

and you're feeling so low

I'll wait with you
I'll wait with you
