Your Vote 04:17
Well you, you cast your vote You made your choice Now please be on your way my friend But smoke, it lingered on Long after you were gone And who will pay the price my friend? North, it’s where you’re bound Your kingdom found But when will you keep true your word? Risk, it’s your reward Static deplored But we don’t all feel that way my friend. His dreams for now they’re fine But will they stick with him as time goes by? And his ideals, they’ll do him well And if not I guess he’ll see us, all in hell Grass, it is now dead Your cheeks aint red Because you don’t feel no guilt my friend React, like a knee jerk It’s sure to work For you it’s all just a test my friend His dreams for now they’re fine But will they stick with him as time goes by? And his ideal, they’ll do him well And if not I guess he’ll see us, all in hell

An aquatic life it fell My brothers I did tell And it has since been reframed on the wall My heart’s been grabbed you see I’ve asked for no reprieve And the closing door I thought it was for good But darling hope you know That when I can’t be with you my love grows And when the time is here that you are near to me I plan to let it show Building up or tearing down a studio A hope I throw That when you dream I’m there with them The lighting the designing hand You’re with me and I hope I’m with you too To little avail is on my mind And I don’t think you’ll mind If I wear it on my sleeves and don’t leave you blind I’m trying to understand Your view of life and plans And I’ll get there if you just give me time But darling hope you know That when I can’t be with you my love grows And when the time is here that you are near to me I plan to let it show Building up or tearing down a studio A hope I throw That when you dream I’m there with them The lighting the designing hand You’re with me and I hope I’m with you too I don’t know just yet Where you head is in fact I’m content to be in this same boat Just you and I [repeated]

The fish bowl overflowed with the tears that you sent down And it’s such a fucking shame that there was no middle ground To be found between the spaces of your left hand right in mine As we sit, one last time What began under a tree just a picnic you and I Ended in a dinner booth with a kiss and a goodbye And if I cried the ride back home with a horn upon my back I’d show the trees what I lacked Feels like December 26th Lord is born but I’m emptiness Feels like December 26th Lord is born but I’m emptiness The citrus in my mouth it has turned to bittersweet And I can’t quite yet be sure what emotions I will greet I take a seat on a blue couch it reflects the way I feel And as I sit I taste the peel Feels like December 26th Lord is born but I’m emptiness Feels like December 26th Lord is born but I’m emptiness I’m emptiness Loss alone zeros on this It’s a feeling I can’t just dismiss The tire has popped and I hear the hiss
