Vintage Lens

A vintage lens, it captured you
And made me believe that it was true
Don't ask me how long I've felt this way
And now we're alone, I still can't say
I sit in a chair, I sit on the ground
I tear out my hair, I jump up and down
But words can't explain, so I'll make no sound
I look through green glass that litters the shore
I take off my mask, I'm outside your door
And in the dead of the night, and in a desolate place
We're covered in fright, I'm gonna show you my face
A vintage lens, it captured you

Something To Live For

Why? Despite all my pains,
I can't change the way I am.
My mind it seldom is my friend.
And now inside a blinding light,
I'm finally where I want to be,
But it's so bright and can you see?
I'll try to pay the bills and rent.
I hope not all my money's spent.
Life's a chaos cloud.
Tomorrow I'll try to see the light.
By now I'm just too tired tonight to figure it out.
But You, You give me something to live for now.
Yeah You, You give me something to live for now.
My friend, was that the way I looked?
The way I looked from here?
Within the light it wasn't clear.
Forgive my self righteous pursuits
But keep an open mind.
The light's so bright that I went blind.
The woman that I call my own,
She's patient with this prodigal son
She's a god send now.
Thank you, my friend, you cut me slack
Because in life there's things you can't take back
and I don't know how.
But You, You give me something to live for now.
Yeah You, You give me something to live for now.
And we all want to scream and shout
Close all the blinds blot out the day
But then one night I figured it out,
to see the sun, stand in the shade
So now you know, and give it away.
You, You give me something to live for
Something to live for now.
Yeah You, You give me something to live for
Something to live for now...

So now the day is done and I am spent
The outside smells like cigarettes
Like malt liquor spilled on the cement
It's like a cheap perfume that's in my head
And you insist that I should spend the night
You wont let me walk back home in alley light
I'm trying to change the subject desperately
and we'll discuss Buddhist philosophy
Because I never think with my head
No I never think with my head
You think it's hot I look like Paul Dano?
I wasn't trying to cause your heart to stir.
I'm not he kind of guy you want to know...
I've got the cultural taste of a dot commer!
No I never think with my head
No I never think with my head
And does it come to you so easily?
For me it's always been a mystery
Thinking... But not with my head
Stay the night
I've got to find some way out of here
because I've got a feeling that this won't end right
What seems wrong?
Damn these trends of the twenty tens!
I can't fish out my car keys!
These skinny jeans are too tight!
No I never think with my head
No I never think with my head
And does it come to you so easily?
For me it's always been a mystery
Thinking... But not with my head.

Sensation
06:09

Standing in a cafe around noon and the lines not moving
The radio plays this odd familiar tune as the sun sneaks by
Then all at once it's dejavu and I feel so high
There's no more doubt. I'll never die.
Days like these they seldom finish well because of expectations
Thoughts like these they must be written down so they can be saved
But I don't want to talk about it, it's too sweet for words
It makes so much sense it sounds absurd
It's just a sensation, it's not likely to change the nation
It's just a sensation when two worlds are one
Let me stay a little longer in your grace to make a resolution
Give me one more minute studying your face and I can show the world
Then once again I lose my cool and I can't drive
I'm too scared of death to feel alive
It's just a sensation, it's not likely to change the nation
It's just a sensation when two worlds are one
