Track Name: High Maintenance
Take all those, my days.
Don't think I wanna walk on no more.
I see birds on trees and cams on wires
and they're all staring back at me.

saying..

"Where are my cigarettes?"
"Is there coffee yet?"
you're so high maintenance I don't know how I maintain around you.

Sorry for the attack, I was lost.
Buried in a room I made myself.
and the radio played songs I didn't
want to hear no more.

"Where are my cigarettes?"
"Is there coffee yet?"
you're so high maintenance I don't know how I maintain around you.
Track Name: Broke My Brain
Lady don't talk to me like that.
I got a frozen eyed chemical stare.
and your poison lips and your pill box eyes
got me hiding behind a thousand lies
you know.

If I had a girl like that I wouldn't drink so much.
I wouldn't think so much...but I don't.
So I try to follow you to the parking lot to say that
"I'm not crazy. I'm just fucking around"
trying to steal the sound that belongs to my soul.
I think I broke my brain.
Track Name: First Day Off
It's my first real day off and I feel like I'm not taking advantage.
As I turn round the corner I can see all their eyes descend upon me.
They say "Hey where you going?"
"I don't know...I gotta put a lock on something."
Cause real cool people ain't that way all the time.

Said I feel like Columbus with a boat, give me something to discover.
and they don't have maps, but plenty of drinks so I guess I'll have another.
It's like some Korean movie I don't know.
Leave the subtitles on.
Cause real cool people ain't no friends of mine.

Oh, it seems we are out of whiskey.
But I'll follow you out there in the autumn sun.

As I talk back to Dwyer, she says, "I'll move out of town before the summer."
Said it's all about choices.
I think I'll choose to pass out right on the lawn here.
Said "I don't like New Orleans anymore...they stole my favorite girl from me."
and real cool people get shot all the time.

Oh, it seems we are out of whiskey.
and I'll follow you out there in the autumn sun.
Track Name: Studemont
Somewhere on Studemont you set up shows but no one went.
If a tree fell in the forest and poisoned the well you recorded it.
It miss the atmosphere of Houston 97.

24 kids in 21 bands. Getting dropped off by parents in vans. Make sure it's a block away.

Times change but people don't. Married to sounds of yesterday.
If I see you at the show wearing that shirt, it won't be the same.

I miss the atmosphere of Houston 97.
Playing at Zelda's and the Abyss. Mocking metal bands to watch 'em get pissed. Where did it all go astray?
Houston 97
Now it's all top ten indie pop trash. Who spend more on clothes than we did on amps. Where did it all go astray?
Track Name: House of the Clean
We gather under the dark lights of room and sit down.
Follow the breath go in and out.
Quiet the mind when it most wants to shout.
Thanks a whole lot for taking me to your scene...at the House of the Clean.

Becca, rises on up through her love. There's a chair in her eyes.
Where we can sit for hours on end.
Swimming in warm while my mind starts to bend.
Thanks a whole lot for taking me to your scene...at the House of the Clean.
