Terry Sharper wants to be my friend, he's not right in the head, he went upstate again And when I visit he is strapped to the bed singing Portishead, it doesn't sound too bad He said the army tried to steal his house, don't know what that's about but at least he is talking Playing checkers in the living room they gave him space to move they think he's doing better The nurse said Terry could be leaving soon due to his change in mood and a new disposition Prescription Thorazine is all he needs and if he stays routine then he'll be out forever Terry way to go! He wouldn't take his pills, he said they're meant to kill Over our dinner date where Terry smashed my plate He said to go outside and I was to oblige And Terry followed me and Terry beat me up in the street The police they came and took Terry away And I hope to god that they don't let Terry out again

Come & Go 02:18
I heard the door close You picked up your clothes I'm always waking up as you leave Come and go Oh as you please Come and go Cold as the breeze Come and go I'm back on the bleachers listening to your old cd's I used to waste days Stuck in your bedframe Now I just walk around in the park Come and go Oh as you please Come and go Cold as the breeze Come and go I'm back on the bleachers listening to your old cd's (Aiken Muller Everybody!)

Motorboat 02:11
Nobody knows her name She came in on a motorboat She didn't really have much to say But she came bearing a lot of hope That everything would end up okay Nobody knows her name She left town on a motorboat There isn't really much else left to say But she left us with a lot of hope That someday we might float away

Hedera 04:31
I can name about ten types of trees And when the sun's not out I stay in and sleep Yesterday I went on a hike to write some things about you But it all came back to me Cause when you're not here I think too much about solar systems How you and I can see satellites but not all my friends can listen all night To me going off about how you can name any type of ivy I don't wanna sleep tonight, so lift me up and find me And we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance And we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance And we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance And we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance I can hold it out if you can wait to see That there's never spaces in between You and I when I'm in the passenger I can read you directions While you're singing Sky Blue Sky Cause when you're not here I get too many airport fever dreams I've learned to take them as they come and go cause it's September 1st before you know And now I can see through the grey-scale smoke and I think I love you Most when I'm driving your car through the botanical gardens we'll wait for our friends to leave Then we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance And we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance And we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance And we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance And we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance And we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance And we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance And we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance and we'll dance

Coffee 03:31
I don't like coffee But you do and that's okay That just won't stop me From loving you all the same I don't do laundry At a normal place but that's okay That just won't stop me From dressing up every day Dressing up for you Before I met you I didn't know who I could be Now I like coffee Your favourite shirt is pressed and clean Life was exhausting But now with you I'm awake

Greyhounds never look like what they tell you on the fliers But economy's alright so I'll lay my head back and tire myself out a little more And idly wait for the pills to kick in I'm beginning to feel like somebody else again And then I fall asleep and my head goes back to Fred Meyers Aiken and I were buying groceries and someone hit his tires unaware We waited in the lot to find he was a drunk guy with a couple of kids He gave us a hundred bucks and said "I won't do it again" He said I truly apologize I buried my wife earlier today But he stumbled with a rack of Busch in his hands and his face told me several different things I don't know if you lied but if you didn't I'm sorry And if you did then pardon me, but fuck you And then I wake up in the station next to Century Link Field Grabbed my Angel Olsen ticket and my bag and I had a feeling about you That's lingered all week long even after what happened And I hold onto it or else I really start to panic Next thing I know I'm about to go into the show with my good friend Alex But I forgot my ticket in his car so I walked back in the alley and saw her standing there Angel Olsen was with her boyfriend and she saw her face it was on my shirt But that moment went by too fast she walked past and I couldn't get out a word And then I'm back in the Neptune and I tell Alex about it and he's like "cool" I expressed my regret over the interaction and he's like "hey man let's just listen to some tunes" So we did and Angel played all of her hits except "Unfucktheworld" She looked tired she said so herself but she played well and we were enamoured After the show, Alex and I walked back .... ...... we stood astounded at all the broken glass My backpack under my jacket with the laptop wasn't there We called the cops and waited for hours but something in the air told me I'd lost this one And so we sat and talked under the Chipotle light for hours I said out of anger I'd write a song about this

Jennicam 03:44
No one’s asking me, the time of day. All my friends are packed, and moved away. When I see you next, what will we say? How’s your father been? This weather’s strange. You’re coming close, oh god What do I do? I trade glances between My shoes and you. We move our mouths as if to talk But you just cough and I do too. I’ve seen that face before Back in Jenny’s room. When everybody spoke As if they knew. I couldn’t hear them talk But I saw how they moved. What can I say, and what can I do I’m running out of youth. And if I’m gonna be true I lost a lot of that and you did too. How can I say and how can you tell I’m never out of view?

Heavier 04:40
The only possibility seems to be stuck up in my head The answer came to me but it felt like a long forgotten friend And it seems to me Catastophe Is lurking. Make something of me Take my anatomy Oh i'm searching Here lies heavier In my heart Here lies heavier in the dark It's been a while now my absence is a part of who I am Got drunk without my friends thought about life as if it were all pretend And it seems to me Catastrophe Is lurking. Make something of me Take my anatomy Oh I'm searching I found some beauty In a Wal-Mart parking lot while I was driving you But you got in the car lost my train of thought What could I do? I found some beauty In a Wal-Mart parking lot while I was driving you But you got in the car lost my train of thought What could I do? The only possibility seems to be stuck up in my head
