sorry about all the missing words, especially in sick to move, the rest are better. i feel pretty good about slack, since someone else submitted it from the single, which i don't have.
if anyone else has this album, could you send me your address, if you don't mind. i'd like to compare notes with someone.
finger on my pulse
i got my finger in the socket
why build a cradle
if you don't plan to rock it
i got my things together
all in one place
i got my stuff out of your way
i got myself out of your face
chorus
i thought that
you said that
we were gonna
so come on
now i'm too sick
too sick to move
i'm sick of no connection
i'm sick of my reflection
there's a field outside my house
i think i'll crawl there for protection
at this point when i planned
you know i planned on going wrong
it's just i never thought i'd plot
the course of failure for this long
chorus
YEAHH!
chorus
My Noise:
it rides beside me
it has no choice
it's my life
it is my voice
it is stupid
it is my noise
it's old and silver(?)
but to me it's gold
it's never silent
and that's dangerous i'm told
i'm told
yeah
Let It Go:
I bet you lost sight of everything
I know the pleasure that repulsion brings(?)
...squeezing something nonexistent
and of the ... guilt is there no existence(?)
chorus (x3)
let it go
[let it go]
...focus...on squeezing the invisible
does that ... excuse the ... it's invincible(?)
pull apart, examine
and put back again
...fascination
better... (i had figured this out, but i can't read my writing)
chorus
chorus
is nothing there
i feel the air
i scream and yell
i'll break your teeth(?)
but not until you let it go
not until you let it go
-
-

Swinging:
you used to move(?) too fast
now you dont move(?) at all
now you start talkin
we ain't talkin' at all
go back to sleep
i didn't say (see?) anything
chorus
swinging
without a ... to...
-
and i want it back
you don't care if i live or die
but that's all right
that's all right
you don't care if i live or die
no
Slow:
-(i have this problem with first lines, don't i?)
i move slowly toward the door
it's all static
i don't need this anymore
chorus
it's slow going
it's slow
you put something in your secret place and now it's gone
this ain't the way it's supposed to happen something's going wrong
don't look at me i've been here in my place all along
my feet are made of lead
and my legs are cast in stone
this pen leaves no trail of ink
i can hardly dial the phone
there's a stiffness in everything
in my bones and in this house
i gotta find someone who knows(?)
i gotta work it out
chorus
i wasn't trying to correct you
-
i was only trying to protect what...
don't look at me i've been here
everything is fine
it's slow going
it's slow going
Slack Motherfucker:
You haven't moved from that spot all night since you asked for a light
You little smokestack
You've wasted my time, I'd like to see you try and give it back
chorus
I'm working
but I'm not working for you
Slack Motherfucker!!
Relax, sit down
I'll kick that stool right out from under you
You ran out, sitting outside
Well I can do the same thing too
Chorus
Chorus
You MOTHERFUCKER, YOU MOTHERFUCKER
Binding:
from black to grey
the night goes
with hours...
my eyes go (?)
with words and pages
my vision blurs
the written word
i can't read anymore
binding
yeah binding
i thought i'd see it comin'
i thought i'd see it comin'
i see... (2x)
i see... (2x) (this line is different than the one before, but i can't
figure either out)
i thought i'd see it comin'
no
Down the Hall:
i don't see anyone
tying you down
ther are no chains
no chains
so what's keeping you around
and your mouth is full of shit(?)
-
and i know what you're thinking
and i need to be by your side
[by your side]
-
isn't that what i...
-
you're useless
-
how do you live like that at all
Half a Life:
verse 1
visting hours are over
leave my young, my..., my...
-
you wait by the photograph
on the dusty mantle on the door
one day out of every week
is never enough time to speak
the words that join this half with yours
chorus
a house divided...confused
only half my heart is used
not enough...to touch these
verse 2
but don't stop whining until you're looking for words(?)
you'll find them(?)
some people...anything that fits(?)
don't you know there's something ahead
you just keep making do until you're dead
until you're
visting hours are over
leave my young, my... my,...
you wait by the photograph
on the mantle on the door
repeat verse 2
Not Tomorrow:
-
-
i can see that...
-
but what're you gonna do
chorus (x4)
not tomorrow
[no]
i can't sleep
you're growing tired of this
and i can't tell
if this goes down an empty well(?)
-
-
-(yes, this is a whole verse i can't figure out, i never said i was good,
just willing to try)
-
-
chorus
i can't sleep
you're growing tired of this
chorus
