Wonderful Love Bug

I could see your smile
From across the parking lot, my love
You somehow think you're fowl
The things I'd do to change your mind
I know you think you're not for me
But I know you're destiny, baby
I will stay here by your side
Til the day we surely die, love bug
I would walk for miles
Just to see your shiny eyes
Though you think you're not
I know you're enough for me you'll see
I know you think you're not for me
But I know you're my destiny, baby
I will stay here by your side
Til the day we surely die, love bug
If you miss me, love
Know the moon will set us free
Can I feel your hug
The only thing that helps me be
I know you're think you're not for me
But I know you're my destiny, baby
I will stay here by your side
Til the day we surely die, love bug
I know you're think you're not for me
But I know you're my destiny, love bug

Styrofoam Man

Hear him walking down the street
With a squeak squeak squeak
He's coming to say hello
So take off your hats,
And your bonnets and your caps
Give a greeting to this fine fellow
Hey Styrofoam Man
How are you, how's your day?
If you work too hard, you'll fall apart
And trust me, that's okay
So this young lad
Of styrofoam
He's fragile as can be
And if you start to get
Close to him
He'll probably be clingy
Hey Styrofoam Man
How are you, how's your day?
If you work too hard, you'll fall apart
And trust me, that's okay
When things head up
He melts down
And his puddle becomes the sea
But when he's out
And walking around
He seems solid to you and me
Hey Styrofoam Man
How are you, how's your day?
If you work too hard, you'll fall apart
And trust me, that's okay
He travels around
To the only few
Who need a special scene
He makes them smile
With a single decree
So they know what he means
Hey Styrofoam Man
How are you, how's your day?
If you work too hard, you'll fall apart
And trust me, that's okay
He may not be
A perfect gent
But his sweetness cures the blue
So sing this final
One with me
To give a big thank you
Hey Styrofoam Man
How are you, how's your day?
If you work too hard, you'll fall apart
And trust me, that's okay
(One more time)
Hey Styrofoam Man
How are you, how's your day?
If you work too hard, you'll fall apart
And trust me, that's okay

Stuck

Stuck in this quarantine
Trying to find a state of normalcy
All I know is I just wanna be free
Stuck indoors
Same old wooden floors
Nothing new except the doors
Don't open anymore
Played The Sims
Problem is, you can't win
Endless like the time I wasted
Watching the room spin
Oh God, I'm trapped in my own mind
Oh no, I'm also trapped inside
I wanna leave this house,
But I can't seem to find the doorknob
I wanna leave this town
If I do I'll end up with a mask on
I feel fine, but that doesn't mean that I'm alright
I'll continue to fight
I'm stuck in this quarantine
Trying to find a state of normalcy
All I know is I just wanna be free
Need to find
Somewhere I can hide
Hide from all my boredom
And this emotional rollercoaster ride
I miss you
And I know you miss me too
I know I'll get to see you
I just hope the time comes soon
Oh God, I'm trapped in my own mind
Oh no, I'm also trapped inside
I wanna leave this house,
But I can't seem to find the doorknob
I wanna leave this town
If I do I'll end up with a mask on
I feel fine, but that doesn't mean that I'm alright
I'll continue to fight
I need to find some solid piece of mind
Searching for some solace
In a solemn, scary time
I need to breathe
Fill my lungs with fresh air
But all I see are concrete walls everywhere
I wanna leave this house,
But I can't seem to find a doorknob
I wanna leave this town
If I do I'll end up with a mask on
I feel fine, but that doesn't mean that I'm alright
I'll continue to fight
And I wanna leave this house
I wanna leave this town
I need to leave
I need to leave
I need to breathe
I'm stuck in this quarantine
Trying to find a state of normalcy
All I know is I just wanna be free

Hyperfixation
03:38
|

You're like a little mealworm
You've found your way into my brain
It's dark and moist
And probably full of grain
'Cause my thoughts
Crumble at the sight of you
I've known you for a week or less
But I don't mind
If you do not protest
Some like to tell me I'm unstable
I'm pretty sure I need a drink
Don't always think before I speak
Call it hyper fixation
Can't get your face out of my head!
And I'll try to be patient
'Till I put these thoughts to bed
Unless you'd rather it be
You and me instead
I'm not trying to sleep with you
My head burns like a comet
And if need be
I'll just go and sleep on it
And if you
Want me gone
Just say the word
Poof, like I was never here
And I'll be silent once again my dear
Some like to tell me I"m unstable
It's just my knees have made me weak
Don't always speak before I think
Call it hyper fixation
Can't get your face out of my head!
And I'll try to be patient
'Till I put these thoughts to bed
Unless you'd rather it be
You and me instead
You know, I woke up this morning, and I opened my phone to text you, and what I wanted to say was "Screw it, let's drive to Philadelphia. The only person that can stop us is you. I've been obsessed with you for at least 24 hours, so I think it's time to move on from my last heartbreak and pursue this new one". Then what I typed was "good morning", and then I deleted that and said nothing at all.
I call it hyper fixation
Can't get your face out of my head!
And I'll try to be patient
'Till I put these thoughts to bed
Unless you'd rather it be
You and me instead
Maybe I need medication
Either way it beats being dead
I'm not a doc, just a patient
Thinking of things I should've said
Say if you'd rather it be
You and me instead

Coconuts
03:17
|

There in the great big jungle
By a big blue sea
Laid a cute little hamlet
Who were happy as could be
One day a wood goddess
Landed on their shore
Asking for all their duds
And not wanting too much more
All her gremlins came and took
All that she would need
Selling what wasn't theirs
And leaving with it all
She took their
Coconuts x14
She took their
Coconuts x14
And then the
Villagers in dolor
Tried to build to again
But then came their goddess
Asking them for more
She took all she could
Leaving them diseased
Swelling up their sadness (oh no)
And leaving them deceased
She took their
Coconuts x14
She took their
Coconuts x14
She took their

Ducky

He stands upon the gates
Rounding circles to the place
He picks the one he’ll replace
An endless game of chase
I know you’re gone
And I know you’re picked
Why can’t we just play along
In this silly game
The kids all run in space
They say ignorance is bliss
My head begins to spin
But all you do is win
Your feet begin to splint
In this feathery game of wings
Why did you just play along
Now your heart is all but gone

Yesterday and Today
03:22
|
|||
Wasting your time right behind my back
You see something run off the track
So you chase it
Spent all your days nearby to me
With a sinking feeling that I was still lonely
Ain't it great?
You try to say that things are fine, but they're not
Everything is harmless 'till you get caught
Don't mind the fact that my head is numb
From my heart beating there like a drum
Ba dum bum
How did I end up with such a lot?
My hand is folded, eyes are now bloodshot
Tendons taut
You try to say that things are fine but you're wrong
Here's to hoping things improve now you're gone

Unnamed

Look at the hologram with his silly sort of tone
Look at the hollow man filled with air instead of bone
He feels like no one understands him. Oh he's so alone
But how can someone understand when himself he does not know
Tell me, tell me
What do you see
In the mirror when you're looking at the face through the screen?
Am I ghost? Did I die?
Because the face in the mirror is more realer than I
Shattered glass and shattered eyes
Reveal my confidence to be no more than a disguise
Don't twist my words around and say that I have told you lies
Because the lies are now the truth, and the truth is a guise
Tell me, tell me
What do you do now
When you see the shattered glass like the grass on the ground?
Don't cut your feet, for the wounds are deep
And naivety lasts as long as you are asleep
Tell me who you are
Tell me who you are
I can't live without a heart
So tell me who you are
Tell me, tell me
How do you rest?
You got a little secret burning up in your chest
How do you tell those near and far
That the secret is you don't even know who you are?
Tell me, tell me
What is this?
A sort of world that makes it feel like you shouldn't exist
I can't run, I cannot fly
From the face in the mirror that's more realer than I
From the face in the mirror that's more realer than I

Free-Floating Thoughts
04:04
|

See it bleed on your back
All I see is you
Morning light, dauntless black
Crickets sing for two
See them about
Why are they out?
See how we sing it so
Watch them expand
Without reprimand
This is why we must go
Free-floating thoughts
See floating thoughts
Free-floating thoughts
Feel floating thoughts
Pisces star, can’t it start
Whatever comes to bed
Tower far, ring is smart
The tree does spawn a lark
Watch them about
Why are they out?
See how we sing it so
Please understand
I’m not the man
Who realizes how it goes
Free-floating thoughts
See floating thoughts
Free-floating thoughts
Feel floating thoughts

Oh Mr. Moon
Give me a sign
This space is quite stark
It’s making me cry
Look with gauged eyes
See without light
I fear what comes soon
I know where it goes
I can’t seem to hide
You kill so benign
You take all my friends
You run with their hearts
How must I live?
For you or for them
I cannot decide
What’s truly inside
