Blood Full of Sand
01:58

|
I put my hands up
So you can see me in the crowd
But you turn around
You're on the phone now
So I go home
To my queen bed alone
I'd probably be sad
If I wasn't used to it
If I need you in the morning
I'll accept that it's not working
I'm getting wasted
I guess I shouldn't
But it's half price night
I guess I only had half the money I thought
I'm getting winded
Distance expands after dark
Still have my queen bed
Sleeping with blood full of sand

Paul Simon's Graceland
01:51
|

|
Everyone is busy
With work or other obligations
Our country is large
Travelling is expected
I'm sick of being alone
I've turned off my phone
Paul Simon's Graceland
Is becoming my home
I'm not going to Graceland

I Wanna Buy a Van
01:55

|
I wanna buy a van
But I wanna lotta things
And having a van
Is something I don't need
I want to call you baby
I want you to call me baby
But I don't know
I can dream
And I wanna be happy
But I wanna lotta things
And being happy
Is something I'll never achieve
I want you to call me baby
I want to call you baby
But I don't know
I can dream

Doping Allegations
02:26
|
|||
|
I'm wearing one of my favorite shirts
I don't know how you feel about the clothes you're wearing
These late nights as always are unreal
Fuck me quick before I'm over you
Maybe this is the beauty
Of the world
Maybe it's ugliness
I'm not sure
The tv is talking about doping allegations
But neither of us are paying much attention
We're trying to figure out compatibility
Hey, look at me, no hands

Second Runner-Up
01:27
|
|||
|
You didn't think I'd do it again
But I'm falling into routine
The awful comfort of patterns in my life
Are like the seasons changing in my hands
Am I a magnet that attracts bad luck
Am I a coward grasping for a good fuck
Am I a loner desperate for a bright smile
My standards so high that I've lost them
But as always tomorrow's a new day
It always plays out the same way
But I'm trying to enjoy the small things
The sky looks beautiful this morning

You'd think that maybe I could talk
But my lips have been welded shut
Your eyes, your face, your everything
Makes me shake and makes me sing
But I'm only a derailed train
And I feel you're more of a jet plane
And besides this isn't quite the sea
It's a little pond full of better me's
I try my best, I write my songs
When I play I look for you alone
And afterwards I try my best
I'm tired of closing by myself

A Dollar
00:36
|
|||
|
If I had a dollar
For every time I fell in love
Baby, I could buy you a diamond ring
But you and I define love
As very different things
The love you're looking for you'll never find in me
|

And I have this vision of a single mother
Parked in her car, crying on the phone
And I'm not sure of the circumstances
I can hardly define the color of the sky
But I'd tell her, "It gets better, it gets better,
"Hold your head up, try to enjoy sunny weather."
And I don't practice what I preach
But it might help her, even if it don't help me
