1. In A Sense
When I lost track of my advice
I let myself know I’d be coming home tonight;
In case I worried, I’d be coming home tonight.
I know I’m losing things,
And I hope I find things too,
And I hope I find a scene where I don’t Know anything.
I guess I’ll have to leave some day.
I hope that won’t be right away.
When there’s nothing left to lose,
Nothing left to say.
I hope my innocence was lost
While I’s remissed and sauced.
Its too much of a cost.
She said you’d never make it,
So I hope she gets here soon;
I know you might not make a move -
But if now is not the time,
You need to feel in line,
But don’t let your life end in regret.
Try not to say not yet.
Sometime its hard to fuck around -
You can only hope you won’t be found.
If you hope to make it back some day,
I can lie and say there’ll be a better way -
But I do hope you made it underground, and I hope it’s fucking great.
You never can return
To mama’s favorite burns.
You’ll never make it back again
So I hope you made it in.

3. Lost Souls
Turns out we’re all lost souls…I though I’s the only one
With my head up my ass, looking right at the gun.
But if we’re all lost, Then who’s gonna be found
When those outer space aliens start coming around?
They look right in your face, straight to your soul.
You think they’re looking for gold?
Well if you’re as lost as me, and I’m lost time three,
Let’s look into the sun, and see what time it is to be.
We’ll walk in a circle, so no one comes first;
Then we’ll go out in the desert – I hope no one dies of thirst.
No aliens are gonna come and try to find us out there.
You know they gotta be careful…of their bleach blond hair.
“Don’t look at me to lead ‘em,” El Presidente shrugged and sighed.
“I just offer explanations – people feel safe when they hide.”
The priest gave us answers, so we knew he must be wrong,
And the teachers gave us questions which we turned into a song.
We all started singing; there was no one to conduct, but
We hit some real nice harmonies, so we can’t be totally fucked.

4. Where Are You?
Where are you Leslie?
The sun is shining.
I hear you laughing;
I’m gonna find you soon.
Another winter
Could drive me
Deeper, still, into
My living waking dreams.
So when it’s springtime and the flowers
Bring everyone around
I hope I see you running with the crowd.
Where are you heartbeat?
I know your pumping.
I forgot breathing for a while,
You know it’s hard to keep that smile
When you’re not seeing;
There’s no blood pumping.
Nothing’s fallen, nothings great,
Everything’s still on the plate.

5. I Feel Fine
Where the mind was once so clear,
Perfectly aligned and near,
Now I’m closing in on you,
Slowly closing in on me.
Where I end and you begin,
Where am I in all this skin?
What is skin and what is bones?
Am I really all alone?
I feel great!
I feel fine!
I feel swell!
Really fine!
Can I tell what’s on my mind?
But I’m having such a good time.
I’m right here.
It’s just me.
And that’s all it needs to be.
Holding this feeling’s bad.
Let hands be hands, they’re hands just hands!
All is quiet in this place.
All this time has been erased.
Is this truly what you need,
Or maybe time’s too real for me.
Is it I who run this show?
Can I really tell me no?
No I can’t! No I can’t, now baby, baby,
I’m holding this!
Feeling’s bad!
Let hands be hands, they’re hands just hands!

6. Know You
When you feel sad, you can’t feel sad, cuz you also feel so bad.
All your feelings are much feeling, they’re just mostly feeling bad.
If you feel bad that you feel sad, you’re no fun to be around at all.
It makes it hard
When there’s someone right beside you and she’s going to be there,
Even if you cannot see her when you’re lost inside your head;
And you know it may be hard for you but of course you see it now,
Cuz her problems are your problems too.
Now your chains have been released! You’re finally free to rest in peace,
But knots don’t get unknotted just like that.
But you’re feeling strong and you must go on,
But you don’t know how much longer you can stay;
Hope it’s ok.
When there’s someone right beside you you will hope she’s really there.
Even if you think you see her, you can see she’s scared and frail;
And you know it may be hard for her, and of course you see it know
That your problems are her problems too.
Now we must go slowly and we’ll be the things we knew we could.
But if we do start over, will it be just like we knew it should?
I’ll tell her that I love her cuz I do,
And I really cannot wait to know you!
