THINGS BEHIND THINGS BEHIND THINGS


I would like the feeling
I would like the feeling
I would like the feeling gone
'Cause I don't like the way it's-
I don't like the way it's-
I don't like the way it's looking
I get caught looking
In the mirror on the regular
What I see there resembles some competitor
I see things behind things behind things
And there are rings within rings within rings

I can't go through the motions
I can't go through the motions
How'm I supposed to do this now?
Say we went out strolling
Say we went out strolling
Say I went and told them how
I am afraid of changing
And when it comes a time to check and rearrange shit
There are things behind things behind things
And there are rings within rings within rings

I

I got caught compiling
I got caught compiling
I got caught compiling my own news
I never lose
And who's the benefactor?
And how to move without touching every interactor
When there are things behind things behind things
(A little further)
And there are rings within rings within rings

Speyside


I know now that I can't make good
How I wish I could
Go back and put
Me where you stood
Nothing's really something now the whole thing's soot

It serves to suffer, make a hole in my foot
And I hope you look
As I fill my book
Oh, what a waste of wood
Nothing's really happened like I thought it would

Ah, ah, ah

I can't rest on no dynasty
Yeah, what is wrong with me?
Man, I'm so sorry
I got the best of me
I really damn been on such a violent spree

But maybe you can still make a man from me
Here on Speyside quay
With what's left of me
As you live and breathe
I really know now what had hold on me

AWARDS SEASON


I can handle
Way more than I can handle
So I keep reaching for the handle
To flood my heart
And the Spaniard
In song that I have pandered to
Is always handing me the anvil
Saying, "That's for you"
But then you came to me
From Olympic heavy duty
We both needed so much soothing
Played you Rickie Lee
Oh, how everything can change
In such a small time frame
You can be remade
You can live again
What was pain now's gain
A new path gets laid
And you know what is great
Nothing stays the same

Felt you through me
In every clue you threw me
Pointing at me asking, "Who, me?"
What a start
And you had taken
All away my aching
Well, how could I ever thank you?
I'd been received
But I'm a sable
And honey, us the fable
You said that you were unable
That it's not reprieved
Oh, but maybe things can change
What can wax can wane
Things can get replayed
And if it's all the same
Oh, just take my hand
And place it on your blame
And let it wash away
With you I will remain

You came over
Short after it was over
You, as precious as a clover
In a meadow's sun
You had no answers
So we laid back to backs and
Clasped treasure with our hands and
Held all fate
But now it's the season
And I know I will be seein' ya
On the TV for some reason
God, my heart
Why do things gotta change?
We were on our way
To be best to face
All that comes in gray
It's so hard to explain
And the facts are strange
But you know what will stay?
Everything we've made

Everything Is Peaceful Love


Don't even go too fast, mama
I'm steady on a rock trippin'
I'll tell you that I'm not slippin'
But tell me not a thing rippin'
Let's say that there will be lippin'
I'm standing on top blinkin'
I'd tell you that I don't know
But you're favored now by fifty
And I'm right at home

And damn, if I'm not climbing up a tree right now
And everything is peaceful love
And right in me
And I know that we may go and change someday
I couldn't rightly say
That's for parting days

What I went and thought about
All in one day
Is simply in-divisible?
As we go our separate ways
Have you already spoken?
Did I hear you say?
Did I already hear you say?
When you're gone
That's a long, old weight of mine

And damn, if I'm not climbing up a tree right now
And every little thing is love
And right with me
And how am I to know that someday you might change the road?
I caught an offering
That's a burning ring

Is it just coming or going?
Or will it hang around?
For a long, long time
Well, I've had too much
And not nearly enough
'Cause I'm afraid with that love
And then they make me this way
I, I'll just go ahead away!
On the loose
The opposite of fools!
I will run the table all through
'Cause I still don't know the truth

But damn, if I'm not climbing up a tree right now
And everything is peaceful love
And right in me
And I know that someday you may change someway
I couldn't rightly say
That's for parting ways
