Stolen Bread 01:14
i was walking along by the riverside i was singing my songs and i was looking to hide morning sunshine come and burn a hole in the sky nature battling pavement bugs in my eyes i was hitching a ride by the grocery store i felt my burning feet on the hot red earth sweet urethane keep me from going insane planes flying overhead the graffiti on the trains nylon ringing through the humid air you shaved off your beautiful curly hair you wake up every morning just hoping on your prayers what good can i do i dont even care stolen bread mends all wounds we got it everytime we were in a sour mood we were always angry there was always bad news but the stolen bread always saw us through

when the temperature drops in early fall we get a white sky above our home we got bodies hidden in every wall and the carpets are soaked with alcohol but woaaaah what i would do for an industrial kitchen and an empty space to write these songs and a place where my friends could listen every single year when the leaves fall from these ancient trees we spend our money on liquor and guitar strings every year when the wind gets cold we build our new homes i think we need a place to hide its that simple we feel the need to run to survive but were not crazy at all

Spiced Rum 01:07
if you wanna get lost just walk and keep walking theres a place for me in every town in this country i feel so high man nothing can bring me down why do i have to be so weird i just wanna disappear it didnt have to be this way can you shut the fuck up just stop stop talking my hearts hardwired to never stop pumping my skin is cold and my lungs are full of iron why do i have to be so mean when im craving nicotine it didnt have to be this way if you wanna feel better just drink and keep chugging slip out on the ice when your heads all buzzing you loved me once well how do you like me now why do i have to get so mad when im feeling dumb and sad it didnt have to be this way

im gonna lay down my sword and shield down by the riverside down by the riverside down by the riverside im gonna make peace with my enemies and study war no more i aint gonna study war no more i aint gonna study war no more i aint gonna study war no more were gonna build up our community down by the riverside down by the riverside down by the riverside were gonna build a small community and study war no more i aint gonna study war no more no one is violent to the core its your optimism i adore when you tell me tales n old folklore i aint gonna study war no more i aint gonna study war no more i aint gonna study war no more

waking up at dawn by this tiny frozen lake you spilled your green tea on your hands and you startled me awake i take in my surroundings pine trees and home brew beer forsaken by my body in this frigid atmosphere worn in steel toe boots and blisters on your feet ive got a torn up denim jacket and some bruises on my cheeks this is the first time ive eaten maybe in days i am hazey and stupid and full white hot rage so get mad get equal cut your hand on the glass and scream at the people whiskey and coffee
6.
the dining room was full and it filled me with confusion i hope you sit next to me til i start using the three of us were smoking while the fog rolled by the air was feeling strange and the water was way too high pure glee when you go and put your arm around me shoulder we could blossom next spring but youre headed back to boulder i finish your beer and my dark brown rum i fall asleep on your chest in my poorly lit room whats next loves fleeting your chest heart beating
7.
the snow by our boots turned to strawberry ice cream felt it melting around my feet the wind was rushing in and my hair was frozen and i could feel my heart beating beneath my bra you took me up into an empty frozen valley brought me in a cabin and made me some chamomile tea
8.
the cobweb fog flows like honey sunlight like a razorblade i can see it cutting through the valley concrete like a scab the awful ticking of clockwork machinery this constant ringing in my ears i get this feeling like straight raw electricity i stumble into your coffee table i knock over my beer im not here the moonlight shines through the snow covered pines you check my pulse to make sure im still alive honey im fine
