I live in the walls of this house
No one's seen me these past few months
I don't feel lonely or look for attention
But sometimes I wish they'd ask where I went
I stand in the bedroom doorway
Playing music with no enjoyment
I sing songs to help me cope with
My aloneness and nothing more than that
Do you hear the noise coming out the vents
It's so faint, so sweet
The same words just keep repeating
Are you gonna leave are you gonna leave
Hey!
I'm an alien to my hometown
The freaks all died or left me behind
I hate change but something needs to happen
Before I'm completely forgotten
I can dream of a better life
I could be anything I like
It's a shame I just waste my time
Playing songs, hating what I write
I can dream of a better life
I could be anything I like
It's a shame I just waste my time
Playing songs, hating what I write
Oh someone's got a new appointment
With the rats living in our basement
We negotiate terms for a new deal
To trade roles in civilization
Do you hear the noise coming out the vents
It's so faint, so sweet
The same words just keep repeating
Are you gonna leave are you gonna leave

All The Same

The spy
On the radio
Hiding in my home
I tell him about my day cause I know he cares
And probably takes notes
And tells all of his folks
About everything that I do cause we're just that close
My friend
My very best friend
Never shared his name
But at least he knows mine, so it's all the same
I just call him Mike
On account of the small mic
Hidden in my radio, oh leave it alone
It's not just his job to check on me
I know that he loves to hear what I say
I got no room for doubt at this point
I just need someone to talk to
The red light
Coming out of the
Back of the machine
Monitoring me
So I don't go away
But I would never go
And leave me friend alone
And make him find someone new who doesn't leave their home
Or give him friendly names
Or talk about their day
Oh it's all the same
The spy
Knocking on my door
Knock me to the floor
It's all the same
It's all the same
It's all the same
It's all the same
It's not just his job to check on me
I know that he loves to hear what I say
I got no room for doubt at this point
I just need someone to talk to
It's not just his job to check on me
I know that he loves to hear what I say
I got no room for doubt at this point
I just need someone to talk to

Arrestant Unpleasant

Laundry on my ceiling
I've been meaning to remove it
From the furniture that's also up there
Stuck under my roof
I could use a little help
But I won't ask anyone else
They'll just tell me I need to grow up
Then I'll get stuck
Get stuck
Arrestant Unpleasant
I'm stuck behind the present with my pesticides
I'm waiting for my life
I'm buzzin, I'm patient
I'm very dedicated
So I'll just wait for my life
I wash my fruit before I eat it
Check for bugs and then some meaning
Put it in a bowl I found somewhere around the house
The fruit just starts levitating
Falling upwards to the ceiling
I can't reach it so I gotta eat myself
Get stuck
Get stuck
Arrestant Unpleasant
I'm stuck behind the present with my pesticides
I'm waiting for my life
I'm buzzin, I'm patient
I'm very dedicated
So I'll just wait for my life
I'll just wait for my life
I'll just wait for my life
Laundry on my ceiling
I've been dealing with a missing feeling
My extremities digested
I'm alone again
Phantom pain is such a menace
Gotta wait another minute
But there's no time left for me
So I'll stay where I am
Get stuck

Watching the sunset cause I
Can't get up early enough to
Watch it rise
In the morning I
Can't seem to commit to anything
Maybe you could try for the
Two of us
I don't care enough about you
Why do you talk to me
Why do I let you
I'm getting phone calls everyday
I have to check my door so you don't
Walk inside
After knocking twice
Sometimes I like to be alone
But I don't know why
Maybe I'm afraid I'll lose you
With something I said
Why do you talk to me
Why do I let you
Why do you talk to me
Why do I let you

The Dog

Same picture on my phone
Just Goya on his own
Say hey if you're around
But don't call
The Dog
Those darker shades of beige
Blend together like the days
If you're here then I should know
Cause I'd rather be alone
He's looking at the stains
Rotting out the paint
You can always wait a bit
But don't call
The Dog
People think it's strange
To take your life and waste it
You can be his change
Just don't call
The Dog
The Dog

You stay up way too late I can't keep up with you anymore
You sit and wait for the right time to rest
Your red-yellow eyes dilate when the sun comes up and down
I say when do you plan on going to bed
You say
I won't miss a drop of sunshine
I won't miss a bit of moonlight
You're hallucinating the sunrise and the sunset
Your mind is fading, body deteriorating
You're wasting away with a smile on your face
I say you need to sleep to see another day
You say
I won't miss a drop of sunshine
I won't miss a bit of moonlight
The window will never change it's shape
The wind or scenery will never call your name
You say "I know all that, but what if it still does
Can't I hold onto hope that these things may change"
You stay up till the stars start singing "Oh to live and die"
You struggle to breathe, but you remain at peace
You say
I won't miss a drop of sunshine
I won't miss a bit of moonlight
I won't miss a drop of sunshine
I won't miss anything anymore

Country Blue

Bring out the boards
I shout from the window
The sunlight's too strong for me to handle
My skin is burning
My favorite song
Just ends when I play it
The barricades, it's all the same
Keep it repeating
The spy returning
The dog just sitting
We don't care
About our feelings
The mold in my lungs is just another staple
Pinning me up in front of my table
We don't share our emotions around here
Just cryptic words that mean nothing to us
I'll stand up with you
When you ask me to
Oh it's getting hard to me
I can't do what you do
Country blue
Shining through the shades in my room
Calling me but
I don't know what to do
With everyone else
Running around through
Country blue
Shining through the shades in my room
Calling me but
I don't know what to do
With everyone else
Running around through
Country blue
