Two Hands Bound
03:06

I fell so low
some things you’ll never know
how odd to pray
tried again the other day
c’est la, c’est vous
got work in the afternoon
born to die a thousand days
and, oh, to see what life remains
‘cause losing is a way of life
and building is another way of life
says the man with his two hands bound
says it all with his two hands
man made me a wage slave
time made me a gelatin
a day so nice
you can shake it off sometimes
and love is good
mostly misunderstood
like how we talk
talking is also love
born to doubt and see what it’s about
and, oh as I dance
I help myself to live
and if I don’t
to keep my self from loss
I lather a friend,
a vial of peppermint!
says the man with his two hands bound
says it all with his two hands
man made me a wage-slave
time made me a gelatin
time made me a bitter one
an animal
an animal is what i’ve become

Plays With Fire
04:18

I’m too tired to play with the flames
I thought I could but it’s hard for me
well fire is life, and life is good
so many nights when it lit her room
and oh so tired but can’t slow down
I hear good music but drown it out
with “gotta do’s,” and vanities
and little fires keep on warming me
Well every man hears his call to be
a mountain’s height, or a lover’s need
I heard it roar from the fire’s place
and can see now how it’s deafened me
and you're too drunk to give a fuck
you got that way because you care so much
then a good wave came to dance with me
then a bad wave came
to take me away from the present for days
when I woke I was still lost in a terrible day dream
of anarchist texts
and my parents are aging
and oh nicole sleeps on lavender
you’d lose a limb to be there with her
on a good wave’s lips, she came to me
we shared the fire
