Weighed Down 01:32
can’t keep my eyes off the front door but I’m stuck in my chair that’s stuck to the floor the walls are paper thin, I wanna bust through I’ve got gas in my brain, but lead in my shoes Weighed down, mama, I’m weighed down Lord I’m weighed down, I’ve got those weighed down blues There’s an ache in my heart that I can’t seem to shake I’ve got a hunger for words that I just can’t create There’s a restless moan that burns through my head a lingering echo of the last words you said Dark water risin’ up to my neck I swear I want to swim, I’ve got a life to protect but my feet just won’t paddle and my arms will not stir I’ve got this weighted down feelin’ and my brain’s just a blur

Oh Angelina 03:10
I woke to your reflection A memory from a dream but my open eyes revealed nothing but this empty, hollow, scene of candles never burned empty canvases and walls and crumpled empty pages thrown where shadows fall it’s a pitty, it’s a shame I’m so restless, I’m so lame my heart is torn apart at the mention of your name words fall through me blindly seems I’ve got nothin’ to say at all I just repeat what others told me and wait on you to call Oh angelina Oh, you tore me down Oh, angelina I should know better by now well I never saw it comin’ you hit me from behind It's a waste of time and energy to have you wrapped up in my mind These feelings are so sinister I just can’t get ‘em out I’m lost inside my own thoughts and no one can hear me shout oh angelina Oh, you tore me down oh, angelina I should know better by now take me angelina take me in your arms give me something to hold on to don’t make me forget about you
3.
Angie II 01:39
Angie you got me broken down again you took me at my weakest and you robbed me of my friends you burn like rain don’t, you fall like planes don’t, you’re a seamstress of lies but you’re a kind-hearted mystic with the sun in your eyes Angie, are you the end of it all? Do you stand strong at the bottom of an order that is tall or do you crumble like a stale old biscuit when I sink in my jagged teeth? Will you fall apart with a lack of grace when I finally get too deep? maybe I should give you another chance... Oh wait, I did already and you tore me down left me hangin’ from a noose, but I was up-side down I’ve got to go, but I’m sure I’ll see you the next time ‘round Angie you’re my future you’re my past Any thoughts I ever have of you are certain not to last from the moment I first saw you to the last time you crossed my mind You have never let me rest, or even close my eyes
4.
Gasoline 03:20
I woke up in a dark place Horses thundering behind my eyes my thoughts pointed downwards every word a disguise the trash can in the alley the shoes on the phone lines a fool walking backwards a baby that cries gimme a match, gimme gasoline Survivin' ain't easy with a smile on your face when the wind comes to catch you your body gets erased and every woman who sees you dumps her thoughts on your brain And it burns just like acid not even bones remain gimme a match, gimme gasoline All these tired horses followin' me tired like those broken memories I don’t react to ruin with disgust for the ruin buries what it must An article of faith may be all that I have tucked away in the corner that I keep behind my back all the oceans in the world I ain't seen nothin' yet all I've seen is the surface and I want to forget gimme a match, gimme gasoline
5.
Gonna leave here walkin’ Gonna leave here satisfied gonna get me a new engine my gasoline is runnin’ dry death don’t have no mercy on those who sit around and cry the walls will collide I can feel it in my bones the world’s in overdrive any minute now a number of things could explse I’ll wash my face and comb my hair and do my best to just let go gonna pack my suitcase with everything that I love gonna give one last thought to the last girl I was thinkin’ of no woman fits in a suitcase but if they did I’d probably bring me one Gonna leave here walkin’ Gonna leave here satisfied gonna get me a new engine my gasoline is runnin’ dry death don’t have no mercy on those who sit around and cry

I’m not a little supersticious I’m hungry and I’m vicious I’ll make a clean-cut robbery pass it off as flattery Ooh, did I catch myself braggin’? I’ll put my foot in my mouth a self-contained reaction! cuz I can’t carry nothin’ out It seems what I’m feelin’ is always wrong either I feel nothin’ or I feel too strong I’ve got the black and white blues but I’ve gotta keep movin’ on I’m no politician’s daughter I don’t conciously kill I’m on the straight train to heaven I keep away from cheap thrills but when I open my mouth my thoughts git back-words sometimes I feel the need to just follow orders It seems what I’m feelin’ is always wrong either I feel nothin’ or I feel too strong I’ve got the black and white blues but I’ve gotta keep movin’ on It ain’t a smooth transition when I open my eyes when I look into the mirror I don’t know if it lies if white is the rainbow and black is my brain than somewhere in-between is the spectrum of my name It seems what I’m feelin’ is always wrong either I feel nothin’ or I feel too strong I’ve got the black and white blues but I’ve gotta keep movin’ on Livin’ in limbo ain’t natural for me I spent my whole life tryin’ to set myself free My misery is wasted on extreme thoughts keeps my stomach and my hands tied up in knots It seems what I’m feelin’ is always wrong either I feel nothin’ or I feel too strong I’ve got the black and white blues but I’ve gotta keep movin’ on

Broken Down 02:10
A simple “knock knock” on the door wouldn’t even make a sound no you can’t hear my words I can’t connect to the ground It’s a bullet train runnin’ through the back of my mind it just feels so supernatural and homeless and blind I can take it all in but I can’t put nothin’ out I got a brand new engine but it feels like i’m broken down a beautiful disconnection between memory and truth sometimes it can be crippling sometimes I find a use whether I do or not I can’t find satisfaction bangin’ my head on the wall and gettin’ no reaction some things are so hot you can’t even get close that ain’t the case with me I’m just an ice-cold joke runnin’ walkin’ talkin’ thinkin’ through the back roads of my mind just gets lost in translation ‘neath the tangled, withered vines

Bein’ lonesome is the cure, girl when you wanna think straight when you’re lookin’ for salvation and your filled with hate you’ve got nothin’ nothin’ to hold on to nothin’ to hold on to, baby, but bein’ lonesome And girl, I’m lonesome too Bein’ lonesome is the cure, girl when you’re tied to the wall when motivations are fading yet you hear a distant call you wanna be runnin’ runnin’ so you can finally make a kill you don’t know if you’ll find freedom runnin’ but you sure as hell won’t find it standing still see desperation’s the solution when you cannot find yourself ‘cuz when you’re haunted by somebody you can’t think of no one else and while you cannot be certain that your destiny is sealed you cannot hide behind a lover and still see yourself revealed bein’ lonesome is the cure, girl for findin’ what was once lost for gamblin’ with your preconceptions and payin’ the cost maybe you’ll find what you were really lookin’ for ‘cuz I don’t think I’ve ever found an answer behind a wide open door
9.
Alone 03:12
I can’t find my place neither can you too many distractions too much to do too many bills to pay too many things to say was our friendship a dream? did it know no bounds? or was it just two people spinnin’ each other around No direction No conclusion In dreams or day In a million ways I am Alone I told myself I wouldn’t let it get me down I told myself I’d turn it around You see where that took me? I’m not so good at denial In dreams or day In a million ways I am Alone And time can be gentle Time can be kind Time can do anything to change your state of mind I know I can fight this I know this is wrong but for now... In dreams or day In a million ways I am Alone
10.
I’ve got to crawl across the floor just to get somethin’ to eat I’m tired from sittin’ and waitin’ to be swept off my feet feel like I’m driftin’ feel like I’m losin’ control I’ve got fever in four walls (four walls) It’s swallowin’ me whole a spider bit me on the neck it won’t stop itchin’ flies are buzzin’ around rotten food in the kitchen I can’t describe all the ways it all pins me down I’ve got fever in four walls (four walls) and there’s no one around Open the blinds darlin’ let some light in just for me gimme some time darlin’ I’m just afraid of what I might see seems I remember a time when things weren’t this way when I wasn’t just standin’ in line waitin’ for the end of the day I had peace of mind if only for a minute or two I’ve got fever in four walls (four walls) and no way to get back to you
11.
If you’re drowning in an ocean of want and need and the loneliness inside you is all you can see It’s that strange hungry feeling that creeps into your soul when the darkness inside you has nowhere to go the barriers between right and wrong get blurred when there’s a pain in your heart that needs a cure the anger inside you is pushed towards the one you love until you make that loneliness fit like a glove ‘Till you find there’s something wrong and you need to find some way to sleep in the presence of wolves and see another day you may feel weary, you may not feel strong you may not be able to listen to your favorite songs you may find that your body, it quivers and it shakes and you’re just not sure how much more you can take You may seek salvation, or seek medical cures You may run so quickly that your vision blurs you may answer to those who would do you harm You may jump into a stranger’s arms ‘Till you find there’s something wrong and you need to find some way to sleep in the presence of wolves and see another day Now listen close to me there’s something you must hear if the greatest feeling you’ve ever felt is fear fear to step into the wilderness alone fear of breaking your heart, your mind and your bones There is love that still surrounds you People who will listen, and will care Breathe deeply until it subdues you Take in that clean fresh air And you’ll find there’s something wrong and you need to find some way to sleep in the presence of wolves and see another day
