My life It don't count for nothing When I look at this world, I feel so small And my life It's only a season A passing September that no one will recall But I gave joy to my mother And I made my lover smile And I can give comfort to my friends when they're hurting And I can make it seem better for a while And my life It's half the way travelled And still I have not found my way out of this night And my life It's tangled in wishes And so many things that just never turned out right But I gave joy to my mother And I made my lover smile And I can give comfort to my friends when they're hurting And I can make it seem better I can make it seem better I can make it seem better for a while

Walk with me while i tell you the duck skin 5 horsemen with carved out pumpkins takes time but you'll get over the thumpin' stitch tight here cause your heart is button see the Earth she's down and dirty shovels ready where she's real purdy tricks of the trade but the gates are pearly you'll need a friend if you're going early better not, dont get into trouble take a chance, might cost you double steer clear when they're hunting for sumthing' big boys talkin' might not know where they're walkin' another year and the kid don't show! don't think he's friend don't think he's a foe stand up they're handin' out buttons looks like he's running for office I came in swingin', i came in cheatin' Let me go head and tell you the meanin' it don't get no better than me 10 trillion stars but only one seed i'll take it all and the oceans of dreams when every action is more than it seems there's only one way and that way is me

PRECIPICE 03:44
the miles of open air the sounds of screaming leave me terrified the smell of lightning underway a voice that resonants the clay don't let me wake up my soul tonite something behind my eyes is trying to get out no one notices the time i stare right into the dark a bleeding oilfield abysmal churning do we fade to nothing i don't know i don't know no matter how i forsake it locked horns just satan and me kali is whispering sweetly then rips my fucking head off she rips my fucking head off

PHENISTRATE 03:52
we've gotta go tonight storm of the century somewhere beyond this dream no more sun in sight never know what lies beyond this gravity and we've gotta go tonight the burning of brilliant stars but i think of you all the time lost in the swollen night straight to the core this time the fusion of all these deeds the spectres above in flight consuming all you see even in the enemy and we've got to go tonight the the door is a fading ghost to all that i wish for you credits

THE BIG TOE 06:59
the end of of america i'm not surprised what's left of innocence call for a good time don't know what love is just know the lies the spiral in my eyes the buzz of flies all hands wave the motion all hands to the skies
