"Shindo"

"Shindo"



Something's out there and it takes me away
from a world too small to stay
something's out there
Another day in this place so small,
I'd rather be somebody else
maybe if my mind wasn't so tall,
I wouldn't be able to tell
and I've walked these streets
it seems like 10 million times
and I've seen things up and leave
time after time
(and its just another day) in this place so small
I'd rather be somebody else
old habits die hard

"Short Fuse Burning"

"Short Fuse Burning"


These are all reasons why
I'll be exploding tonight
and why this chip on my shoulder
feels like a mile wide
it's from the overwork
overtime compromise

[Chorus:]
So I'm looking tonight
for some peace of mind
maybe then I'll find
Some strength inside
'cause I've lost any hope of ever changing
I'm a short fuse burning [x2]

And remember who I
who I used to be
Because this one-trick pony's
so strung on routine
yeah, stuck on repeat
like you wouldn't even believe

[Chorus]

Hey, everybody don't forget me
Forget me
Hey, everybody don't forget me
I forgot who I used to be
And I'm a short fuse burning
I'm so close to exploding
So everybody don't forget me
I forgot who I used to be

[Chorus]

Hey, everybody don't forget me
Forget me
Hey, everybody don't forget me
I forgot who I used to be
And I'm a short fuse burning
I'm so close to exploding
Hey, everybody don't forget me
I forgot who I used to be

"Short On Ideas"

"Short On Ideas"



Have you been feeling down, pushed around
Feeling like everything has been done before
Do I need to understand every word from every man
Or everything from every band
Can I say it's all been done before
Religion, science, similes to metaphors
Can it be that there's nothing new
When there's more ways of looking at the truth
The more things seem to change
The more they just stay the same
But now it's called a different name
Can you say things are new
When you look at magazines
And things you've seen in the news.

"Shotgun"

"Shotgun"



There was a kid so low, he couldn't stand up
No money, no respect and too much bad luck
Desperation had gotten to him at last
It was dark
Dark alley and a shot gun blast
And I knew a man everyone thought
Was out of his mind
He had a cane and seemed to be around all the time
And it's a shame, when a car rolls past
It was dark
Dark alley and a shot gun blast
Shotgun - no one ever thinks about it
Until your out of your head

"Showbiz? Science? Who Cares?"

"Showbiz? Science? Who Cares?"


If you had all the facts all the fictions
if you knew everything about science and all about religion
would you stand by your convictions
would you still make the right decisions
would you accept someone else's opinions in this life

because whatever it takes to get you by
well that's the right things to do in this crazy mixed up life
sad or sober or strong or with closed eyes
would you still make all the right decisions
would you accept someone else's forgiveness in this life

because its all a leap of faith
from white plastic saints to
to all those hard questions you have to face
every single day [5x]

I've read all the books
and I still don't have all the answers
and thats fine whatever it takes to get you by

to all those hard questions you have to face

"Sleep It Off"

"Sleep It Off"


i might as well just sleep it off
wishful thinking's got my wires crossed (whoa ho)
when i am desperate and alone
i know i know i know how low i go

so i'll drive and disapear
and maybe if i'm luck by this time next year
no one i know will know my name
it's either change or go or i'll explode today
i'll leave a note on my machine
unplug the phone and finish packing all my things
i found a photograph of me
its been such a slow decay
day to day i don't even recognize my own face

i had another breakdown
and i'm floating face down
i might as well just sleep it off
wishful thinking's got my wires crossed (whoa ho)
when i am desperate and alone
i know i know i know how low i go

i'm going to sleep it off
this sinking feeling of always feeling lost
hasn't been that long
six years worth of always being wrong
i met an old friend out on the street
trade stories and out of date memories
and she has a photograph of me it's been such a slow decay day to day
did we seem much happier in those days

its been a slow decay
day to day i don't even recognize my face

i know i know i know how low i go [x4]

"Sobriety Is A Serious Business And Business Ain't So Good"

"Sobriety Is A Serious Business And Business Ain't So Good"



So it's sunrise
sober eyes
see my room spin around
crowded bars and crumbling town
I'm a mess
a monument
two clenching fists of helplessness
oblivious to all of it
situation hopeless
will all the assholes in this room
please raise your right hand

"Son of Dick"

"Son of Dick"


Well Dick's son has his CD's in neat lines
and has a dad that reads every sign and says
"I only drive 62.5"
well I, yeah I don't really mind
his coordinated closet and his folded clothes
but who left the bullet in the mashed potatoes?

[Chorus:]
Well why's everybody sweating me
because I go to Dairy Queen
well why's everybody sweating me
I'm just the son of Dick Ramsbee

His dad boils water by time
and measures sugar by the line
who tours the country in a winnebago
well his dad's an anal guy
and his roomate's stalked by the FBI
"Who put the shotgun underneath the sofa?"
Hal put the shotgun underneath the sofa

[Chorus]

I'm son of Dick
I'm son of Dick
I

"Soundcheck"

"Soundcheck"



I always thought of music as more than words and sound,
something more like inspiration that picks you off the ground,
when your down...
And I, know that music will pull me through.
So it's a soundcheck to an empty room.

"Soundtrack Of My Life"

"Soundtrack Of My Life"


I'm on a mission
To see what's been missing
My favorite song is on repeat
But it's just not helping me
My eyes have been wider but never been brighter
Something else is going on
I need a reminder of why I feel this way

There's a fine line between
Living a lie and feeling alive
There are times that I've been
Looking from the outside in
And here I go again
Falling behind losing my mind
I'm pretending it's alright
Listening to the soundtrack of my life

Wo-oh
Listening to the soundtrack of my life

I still believe in
Facing all my demons
And everything that people promise
Everything I've always wanted
My mouth has been open
My words have been stolen
It may have been used against me
It's starting to affect me
And now I feel this way

There's a fine line between
Living a lie and feeling alive
There are times that I've been
Looking from the outside in
And here I go again
Falling behind losing my mind
I'm pretending it's alright
Listening to the soundtrack of my life

Wo-oh
Listening to the soundtrack of my life

And it goes like this...

And it takes me back...

And it spins around
And round and round
And round and round
And it goes around
And always leads to black

There's a fine line between
Living a lie and feeling alive
There are times that I've been
Looking from the outside in
And here I go again
Falling behind losing my mind
I'm pretending it's alright
Listening to the soundtrack of my life

Wo-oh
Listening to the soundtrack of my life
[x3]
