I don't know what you did
when you walked out on me
feel it in my bones
that summer of our ecstasy
I wasn't expecting to see you
here again
do you recall my heroes
spinning round again
I've been waiting
our oasis
coming back I knew
we'd never be the same
again
I remember what you said
when you were next to me
did you really think we'd win
the lottery
I've been waiting
our oasis
coming back I knew
we'd never be the same
again

hey
don't wait
it's time
it's almost over
it's the end of time
start something better
hey
don't wait
it's time
we don't have forever
it's the end of time
it's now or never

when snakes have eyes
what's there to see
when i love you
that's all there is
to me
breathe deep
silence
darkness
lanterns
and soft skin
playing pick-up sticks
while you pick up chicks
hey girl
paper
plastic
surgery
i've had it

i saw you yesterday
you changed your hair from the day before
i thought i heard you say
that you didn't like me anymore
why can't i survive with my shoes untied?
I'm giving up everything
go home and masturbate
think of you--slap my face
she's not opaque
but born again
she's my suffering
and my best friend

i'd like to work on remembering
all the things I've worked so hard to forget
i'd like to not be so hard on myself
and others
i'd like to remember conversations
good ones and bad
with the people I've lost because they aren't
coming back
anytime soon to remind me
I'll have to do this on my own
but not alone
I'm not alone
is it my job to make you feel?

do you remember all the weekends we spent wasted
reading please save my earth on the couchbed
it feels like there's always something going wrong
but we just keep moving on
do you remember
do you remember
my car got towed, the heat pump is fucking up
your student loans -- I still don't make enough
money or time
they always circle in my mind
but then
I hear a voice from inside
do you remember
do you remember
do you remember all the weekends we spent wasted
reading please save my earth on the couchbed
it feels like there's always something going wrong
but we just keep moving on
do you remember

i think i'd like to
learn to play the guitar
do you think they'd
let me play in a bar?
who are you to
tell me what to do
i will show
my nipples
if i want to
i didn't know this
would be a political song
i just started
singing along
always keep socks
even if they have holes
never felt like i had
enough clothes
growing up
growing up
i'm always tiptoeing around
need to know it's okay
for me to be loud
he said to change your voice
cuz it sounds dykey
i wish i didn't care if
people liked me
growing up

are you alone?
02:39
|

|
you were pacing in the back
waiting for me to come down
do you really know what
it's like to be alone
standing on the side again
i was standing on the edge
of having it all
figured out
i've been
above and below
not making a single sound
standing on the side, again

i'll never forget one night that summer
you were lying right next to me
couldn't fall asleep, couldn't run away
from thoughts of death and eternity
it felt like there was a hole in my heart
where something used to be
innocence escap'd; my future erased,
I'm feeling hopeless again
looking for the end around every corner,
it's just a matter of time
coming face to face
with the Fact:
that every single
person I love
will die
they'll die, I'll die, you'll die,
we'll die
haunted by your ghost, I imagine your face
was the answer in your eyes?
couldn't find the words
or a reason why,
why you had to die
oh why, oh why
oh time, why
do we die?
but now I believe there's no time wasted
stand up to annihilation
reawaken expectations,
share your heart with all creation
you're the one who made me believe
in something that I could not see;
meeting you was my destiny
you're the one who made me
believe
I don't know what comes next
but I know I'll give it my best,
use up all the time I've got left--
I know that's my ultimate test

Runners In The Nerved World
by The Sidekicks
There was one night where we heard Runners for the "first time" and it literally changed everything for us. I have a powerful memory of "Deer" live in a warehouse in Columbus. "Pet" is so good!
go to album
I found Clique on a message board and listened to the EP before an event that ended up defining our relationship. Maybe it inspired it? Each song brings back memories of summer in Lex.

Can You Spell Urusei Yatsura - Lost Songs 1993-2000
by Urusei Yatsura
We found Urusei Yatsura while looking for a volume of the manga but I ended up liking the band more than the series it's named after. They're the reason we named ourselves after a manga too!
