"Slow Backwards"
say it slow
say it backwards
these words are
these words are
shades of pink and they're on the diagonal
art for art's sake, knowledge is power
when I was a bird I sat on the power
lines in the rain or the sunshine
got lost in the wow and flutter of life
then I closed my eyes and moved past it
I got a taste for the old things now
and I've fallen in love with the classics
this is the analog prolog
I've got protagonist syndrome
wash your hands twice before you think about kissing him
divide up the nights into equal temperament
bottom shelf whiskey with a hint of cinnamon
don't say it so fast, don't say it so fast
once it's out there, you can't take it back
slow down
I wanna hear it like you spoke it backwards
slow down
I wanna hear it like you spoke it backwards
these words are
these words are
the deepest of blues and almost as soothing
everyone feels like their life is a movie
I almost wish that time would stop moving
uncomfortably close and you see right through me
I painted a bird
when I was a bird I loved to travel
collected abstract sentences and put them together
pinky swear that we'll spend time together
indian giver you think you're so clever
drink with your hands and share some with others
cracked screen, bad dreams, ripped sleeve, take these
pills out of your medicine cabinet
the story is fiction does it make it less tragic
it's not an addiction, just slow down
slow down
slow down
slow down
slow down
make sure to repeat it because it's important
repeat it for those who missed it
repeat it, you said it to fast
say it again
repeat it so they know you're serious
did they hear you
repeat it if they don't understand
repeat it because you like the way it sounds
tell 'em again
repeat it because you like the way it sounds
tell 'em again
when I was a bird I sang as loud as I could
I wanted everyone to hear me
when I was a bird I sang as loud as I could
I wanted everyone to hear me
when I was a bird I sang as loud as I could
I wanted everyone to hear me
when I was a bird I sang as loud as I could
I wanted everyone to hear me
when I was a bird I sang as loud as I could
I wanted everyone to hear me
when I was a bird I sang as loud as I could
I wanted everyone to hear me

"Old Drugs"
teach me 'bout your old drugs
I wanna feel some new things
tired of this same buzz
swimming 'round in my brain
just pick me up or hold me
wrap me up in cellophane
and hug me 'till I cant breathe
put me in your microwave
until I'm warm
and cavin' in
felt the sun
filled my skin
I'm given in, oh I'm
I'm letting go
lost my job at the
corner store on Main
old drugs
old drugs
and I know about your old drugs
opiates and novocaines
I'm drowning in this new buzz
it's saturated my brain
set me down or drop me
just throw me through your windowpane
I'm staring out the front door
I smell you on my pillowcase
I know I'm soft
and I've given in
now the sun
burns my skin
and I've given up, oh I've
I've let go
built a home behind the
corner store on Main
old drugs
new pains
old drugs
new pains
old drugs
new pains
old drugs
new pains
