good day 02:58
grey every time that i step outside but still i make out that it's summertime birds in the sky, sometimes i envy them, way they just fly away from the ... danger is something to see, when you are feeling the boredom. looks like a good day to be in love pity that mine said she's had enough baby if you hear this then hello there and you can catch me steady riding out to nowhere and the evening breeze it helps keep me cool someone tell my lover that i'm a fool, cause when i try to reach her cell i dont get no reply. how can i tell her to be by her side is all that i need to feel whole? looks like a good day to be in love pity that mine said she's had enough baby if you hear this then hello there and you can catch me steady riding out to nowhere looks like a good day to be in love pity that mine said she's had enough baby if you hear this then hello there and don't you know that you can catch me steady riding out to nowhere.

stick around 02:57
it's cold in this dusty room and i'm sure i cant breathe, you'll forget about me soon and i'm sure i cant leave. spend my days waiting for the moon and the night-time the sun. surely thats cause without you i cannot seem to find my groove, no fun. and if you cannot stick around at least remember me well and if you decide love for me you have found blow up my cell. back here, alone old me on the edge of my bed. and if i have company don't let it get misread. i'm just filling my home, you see, and pretending its you but it really doesn't work in-fact it only leads to hurt why don't you call me? and if you cannot stick around at least remember me well and if you decide love for me you have found blow up my cell and if you cannot stick around, my love, at least remember me well and if you decide love for me you have found then blow up my cell.

talk 03:29
tell tell yourself a tale from a different point of view he don't want drama you aint feeding your karma maybe you need a dose of truth, if thats what you wanna call it then thats okay but leave with your drama, your gas make it harder (but i guess) (talk be cheap as chips these days) let them talk, yeah let them talk their greaze. for talk is cheap as chips these days let them talk, yeah talk as they please. maybe they just bored, talk is cheap these days was it cause i found myself without you near? or was it cause i diddnt act at all the most sincere? hurts to know you know the truth, and still you be making up greaze, still you be talking your greaze. but we dont speak the same or breathe the same, we could not be the same. you breed a game for me to play i'd rather keep away guess the truth comes out through time, even though it hurts, its fine, till then ill wait in line and just let them talk, yeah let them talk their greaze. for talk is cheap as chips these days let them talk, yeah talk as they please. maybe they just bored, talk is cheap these days let them talk, yeah let them talk their greaze. for talk is cheap as chips these days let them talk, yeah talk as they please they just bored, cause talk is cheap these days so let them talk their greaze for talk be cheap as chips these days sit back, write rhymes, blow trees & walk these streets in different ways

i decided to get up to watch the day rise and light it helps to bring the calm to those with stray eyes like mine. take a moment just to breathe maybe start it up by twisting leaves. dont worry when they talk their greaze watch their words fly in the morning breeze sometimes it dont feel right when i'm not next to you feel your absence most at night but take it to the booth turn it into something good, something that will make the people smile at least that's one thing i can do when down, plate up all my troubles, served with style, need another dose of java cause all them trees they wear me out. this one better hit me harder cause its only when im tired that i doubt sometimes it dont feel right when im not next to you feel your absence most at night but take it to the booth sometimes it dont feel right when im not next to you feel your absence most at night but take it to the booth

ihywhfyh 04:02
it's cold outside, or at least i think, cause lately my minds fooling me. so let me in inside, before i sink, cause right now that seems cool to me. serendipity she walks further away from me, feeling so strange looking for my love. looked into a mirror and saw tortured eyes, disguised, begging me please still turn the page. i heard you were hiding from your heart know it only leads to feeling blue stuck into my skin my little poison dart its funny what we use to pull us through where is my home? and where have you gone? emptiness begins the day. and how i feel alone, but still moving strong, the real reason I still play. round & round we go, missing, but neither side they show, the weathers still cold now, baby if i dont give up would it pay off, im feeling stuck but never grow old, love i heard you were hiding from your heart know it only leads to feeling blue stuck into my skin my little poison dart its funny what we use to pull us through i heard you were hiding from your heart know it only leads to feeling blue stuck into my skin my little poison dart its funny what we use to pull us through
