Its always the days when your away When you cant tell me what to say Its always when I'm fighting waves When I start to misbehave Its always the days i lose my skin And i cant tell what i believe in I see is the world and its spinning Seen it since the beginning It always the days we lost our words Cuz there were sweeter songs to be heard Its always the weird things pickin me up like drinking in the back of a truck Cuz the sun can wait The stars must shine The trees will shake But well be fine

Id have dreams of trains passing by Chugging under an inky sky Sunken ships in empty seas Floating on a dismal breeze each night id have dreams like these ones with black holes Empty rainbows dark as coal Blank rooms how can I make my life bloom? Maybe Ill dream some friends instead To kill the monsters under my bed With all these ghosts on my side I felt less dark inside my mind I felt less dark in my mind don't you know i felt less dark in my mind

Lettuce! 02:44
Don't you say a word To your friends unheard Only speak of destination Dont give into complication You and me Let us be free No more complication Don't you cry You will live till you die If play by their rules And become a fool Live lonely each day Whose game did you play? Let us be free Let us see what we’ll see Let us run Let us die under our sun Not live Under their moon

Dancing sticks in my eyelids Tears in my tomorrows Due to smiles I borrowed Laughing in my teeth But shakes in my arms Thoughts moving in my head But I haven't left my bed Wondering who did this to me Biting things I could never see Saying things You wouldnt accept Wishing for memories i never kept
6.
Your hair of crimson alys kept me wishing for lips un bitten and roads un driven Time after time I found That the sound Of me dreaming left tears streaming To separate these lines between you and I A thousand times I’d say goodbye Id say tomorrow Would be better I know because you checked The weather Words you threw to show affection Were nothing but ripples in reflection wondered if your dreams were like mine I never read between the lines in your eyes I can't read Between The lines They separate you and I I believe You take a part of me when you leave Can I borrow your better half? I promise ill give it back Eventually you will need it

You know im burnin bridges With old friends You know I'm Puling stitches From hearts I could not mend I get older each year With a tear and a sigh Ive found A goodbye Is better than a lie Although you cannot cry The clouds will roll by And the clouds will roll by When you leave my home Dont come runnin to me Your anger oh she blinded me And I just dont know Should I be high or low When I was a little ill amit Id pull my baby teeth So mew ones could fit But there were only empty gums beneath

On the day where sunshine stops Creeping over fall treetops Leaves of red and yellow Thats when ill say hello To winters cold mellow Touch Im a leaf on a tree and so are you You gotta grow more leaves to get through yea im a good seed So are you Spreding it is what you gotta do There is nothing more dangerous than a man afraid to die I ill hope for it sometime When ive spent my life dyin Whenever i tried to write that love song It slowly took my breath away I always had the words wrong You didn't hear them anyway

Dreams of racing through crossway Ohhhhh I feel the light fading bit by bit By now its barely lit Hoping for luck under a yellow light I don't believe in god but im prayin tonight Feelings got to my head And the lights already red Hoping that one day Things will be okay Bluegrass will turn green Thats what we've seen In every single dream I tried so hard to run Faster than time So I could catch the sun And make life sublime Little did I find Red lights led me blind Straight into the back of a van Thats where my car ran Thats what happens when you race time Its always been my biggest crime Racing towards a red light Always fell too right

Life ain't forever If it was would it be any better While im here ill waste one day To feel this way To feel the milky way I can see your eyes caught up in the stars Looking at skies much too far Im just thinking trains Fly like airplains Cuz I'm Seeing the moon half full I don't mean im strange When I'm done Milking in cream cheese on the sun Ill see rainbows on jupiter wishing I could see her Playing a gig on neptune God im outta tune living this milky way lifestyle Been doing it for a while And it always made me smile Im Nebulotic Cuz obsessed with the stars Life moves too quick To stay where we are
11.
Didn't own dreams of my own When I walked alone I always found a home Whenever you'd come along That's why im singing this song Oh how did the feeling grow When I needed it the most Whenever Im feeling low Id play you a couple notes Your tears dripping in slow You said dont wish for gold For theres much more to hold I got my whole life from you I just wish you knew All the things that you do Scatter to the wind I know you wont spread me thin When Ive got no one to hold And oh times a gettin old

about

This is a concept album I made that relys on samples or voicemails for the tone of the song. I came up with this idea after my grandfather left me the voicemail seen in "Racing Towards A Red Light".
