Hold my hand and walk through the park with me we only got a couple days might as well make the best of the time we have pen some lyrics to a soft clandestine tongue or simply sit around in chairs wond'ring where the time has gone A water witch from stumptown or a Rose's City Thorn less-than-perfect sanity, a reason to go on Ethereal day, you are my song in the rain A cloud of fading memories seeping into the bay crystalistic pseudonyms for two jacks-of-all-trades or a pair of wannabe music stars, one already halfway Someday I'll stay longer, maybe we'll have time to talk You go out to protests, watching communism chalk My heart, my soul, my future plans, I give them all to you I stay here and spiral, writing palimpsest tunes Chipped polish on a fingernail or a fragile bit of glass My thoughts change like time signatures, as time still slowly passes Ethereal day, you are my song in the rain A cloud of fading memories seeping into the bay crystalistic pseudonyms for two jacks-of-all-trades or a pair of wannabe music stars, one already halfway And now pieces of broken pens scatter across the floor A new leaf turns like notebook pages summer's luminescence ends I'm always there to help you, but sometimes I'm out of my mind so just shine on, cyan diamond, and ill be home some odd night

Your profile picture's beautiful tonight And I love every word that you type It's weeks since the last time we talked 'Cause interaction's all but stopped So can I really be in love with you? Online romance, cables on fire Two girls kissing on a telephone wire Online romance, it's not reality Online romance, or at least it wouldn't be Reality It's not a romance, that is clear We've barely seen each other in about a year Waved goodbye every day at 4 Then one day we didn't come back anymore Kept apart, oh what a pity See people random places like Salt Lake City Online romance or a walk in the park We'd stay online if we were smart! Six-foot romance, that's no fun Guess I'm the irresponsible one Keep a distance of two meters Walk out to the park to meet her Oh... Online romance, chances stolen Heartbroken and half-crestfallen See you in the misty morning Practise love like I'm performing I always message you first Practically waiting by the telephone You might say we're always together But I say the world's all alone.

[[[this is a Tally Hall cover!]]] Here's that part again where everything's more than it should be And greener seems to fall beneath your feet Seconds tick like boulders whenever you don't call Does it seem like that where you are? Wherever it is you are Does it seem like that where you are? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Time for time together, and depending on the weather We'll either argue in your house or outside How different I felt, before I got this notch on my belt 'Cause in my plans, you were all for me Yeah, but now it seems that you'd just rather leave Wherever you go is breaking me slowly Don't leave it alone, don't leave it alone You sound so much further on the phone! You fit just right, right next to me But there's always a reason why it can't be Telephones make you seem miles away from home All alone, I get a little meaner I leave a message at your tone And miles away from home You get a little cleaner of me And I find a little greener shade of envy Wherever you go is breaking me slowly Don't leave it alone, don't leave it alone You sound so much further on the phone! You fit just right, right next to me But there's always a reason why it can't be Wherever you are is breaking my heart Don't leave it alone, don't leave it alone! You fit just right, right next to me

If we're being honest, you're my friend But we're not, so you've got To never bother me again If I said you're patronizing Never noticing I'm crying In retrospect, it's not surprising That this was you If you're such an awesome person, you Need to be yourself, not somebody else That I never thought I knew You might think you're compromising Both of us self-sacrificing In retrospect, it's not surprising That this was you Spent so many hours staring at the stuff in your room Under the moon Spent so long in that room being lied to And expected to And now the phrases bounce back over and over Weight like a wooden sword upon my shoulder Like a kitty scratch, like a vampire's bite The first time I saw a 20-sided die And one of us is friendless and lonely and phony Friendship chalky and crumbly like the word "chalcedony" "Unprofessional" say the rich to the poor Now, where here on Earth have I heard that before? Correcting my language like you really care About howe I sound and about howe I fare/fair New pronunciations break the ground most every day I know it's not right But I thought that I might Get my way Chorus or something: Now you’re a celebrity Like you always wanted to be Now there is a song about you Now you’re such a pretty girl Like you always thought you were Now there is no reason to be sad A gem among the other rock A skill for tense defusing talk Behind the back of your neck Now you’re such a pretty girl Like you never cared if you were Now you’ve dyed your blonde hair blonde Blonde hair blonde It’s not my fault If I don’t see You only wanna do something because of me So don’t blame me If I don’t do The same for you You always hated my little brother And I got along better with your mother Than I did with you I wanna do What you wanna do Wrote a lengthy letter to apologize for everything While you relaxed in your deputy den regretting nothing What was in the letter? Well, I’m such a big regretter Prob’ly anything that happened on a typical day But I’m also a forgetter, so I really don’t remember What was in the letter, but it really doesn’t matter If I can recall all or some or none of it ‘Cause I retract my sorrying for every part of it Maybe that’s the reason why I never sent it The life and death Of every party Selfless, practical, and arty When I wanted you to be ‘Cause apparently you lied to me For me Did favors for me that you never told me about I was expected to return them with a handshake and a shout Every time you either lost to me or always won We cannot agree on which of us is overrun Chaos can be beauty but you’re no Keith Emerson You’re the type of beauty that in movies prob’ly has a gun You are not the one You think you are the heroine, you’re acting like the drug ‘Cause hanging out with you feels great but then it really sucks I guess i’m just lucky you never drew blood I’m not your psychic sidekick

One sunned or windy, can’t remember, maybe May-ish day I sat with my now-ex sweetheart, watching capras graze when came a man, he stirred them up, and suddenly arose a loud commotion! holy shit, the goats are running down the hill!

What a fright! They're going to sacrifice humans tonight!

Which is better? Societal delusion or chemical illusion False surety or realistic confusion Wishing for conformity you may not possess Or forever seeking another experience experiment verse I: Sixty-some years ago, in the paper was an ad-ress "Wanted: normal hetero sapiens for scientific progress We'll give you a test to make sure you are normal The drug in your water will be pure and formal And we'll see what you shall see We'll see what you shall be" chorus verse 2: You showed up to the lab, took the mental health test They asked if you were normal, said you thought you were the best At conformity 'Cause all you need Is to stay at home and watch the trees Bear fruit, and shield them from the sunshine Tell everyone you're just fine It was the '50s after all And no one hears trees fall In the forest of your mind In the forest of your mind, you're not fine, you're not fine! chorus verse 3: You sat at the table and talked to the scientist The glass on the table contained your future consciousness Could have even been a placebo That wasn't part of the test, though He said the scientific name No one uses that name now Except scientists, and people who are pissed About howe much it's spread around And you drank it down The dosage was high Like lights in the sky You took it and you waited and you thought You saw which was better: Chorus verse 4: Hours passed, you felt that you were free So you pointed into nothingness, said "look there, don't you see?" What he couldn't see, it's a field of plastic trees, "right there, in the air, it's reality! it's everything I think is true, and if you don't see it I pity you." That's what you said, 'cause you saw it in your head, now your husband wants to tell you that you should be home in bed, are you seeing red? chorus bridge: Whatever happened, you're probably fine Illumination takes more than sunshine Everybody's got a little spiral in their mind And a casualty is unspiraling mine Everything you think is wrong is wrong to you Everything you feel is wrong just may be true, in your distorted blue, the sky is blue, the sun's in the sky so what happened to you? What did you think was true and more importantly, what did you do? verse 5: Where are you now, what did you do after Had a happy life or a lysergic disaster Or both Is that possible Without going to the hospital Or back to your hometown With loving family around Oh, oh, oh, where are you now? (oh, oh, where are you?) Did you plant perfect tree thoughts of your own Or fall back on plastic and putting down the phone Everyone knows it's unsafe to travel alone!
