Coyote 05:26
When I was young I used to Light fires outside in my backyard Now I know enough... Right now, I'm about as useful As a hand with a broken thumb I can see the bone... Yeah I look now and I like it No. No. No. If I said that I'd be lying No. No. No. This desert air makes my nose bleed At least that's what I tell my mom She don't care enough... I find myself thrust in these Situations I don't want to be But I'm curious... And it looks as if I'm trying No. No. No. And I wish I knew what dying Was... We used to go out to parties And I would say nothing Too blurred to talk Too numb to see But I'd keep my promise Girl... I think we're dying... And all I'm holding on to... Is me killing time, yeah... We used to go out to parties And I would try and keep my promise

Don Poncho 05:32
Cracked light Leaves in a tear Warm nights Trouble no one's stare And we pack our lungs full of curtain fire All the booming sounds will go on for a while Tell me a lie, tell me a lie It's better off in my head And who you need is killing me Like a blister cherry red With all you might With all my might I try to listen to it all But I'll stretch and stretch and stretch What I seem to gather is small Just messing it up Just sucking it up again Careful my law A shake of your hand A flick of your light I'm breathing what I trust are Chemicals inside your blood To make it easier on her Just messing it up Just sucking it up again Careful my law I tried to think about a different song One I sang just not so long ago But I can't get it in my head...

Parlay 04:00
I'm trading all my old for sin These tells should never be adopted This smile should look paper thin I assure you this is what I wanted Parlay I'm slipping in again Stop me I'm slipping in again Stretching my worth has come back to Sharing my home with an unwanted Cut and run is what they always do Although, can you really blame them? Parlay I'm slipping in again Stop me I'm slipping in again

Owens 05:26
Canary yellow shirts wear thin Under the sun when I was a kid Now I'm alone Trust in me, yeah this I swear It'll all get a little bit better When you get old Red Thunderbirds tend to move really slow You would bend a knee down for caring Everyone would be right at home And the colors bursting towards the night Like the blood that's spinning around my bones The clippings of grass stick to our feet As we run around on the wet concrete Sprinklers are on We ride on down to Owens As we fight the asphalt boiling Sneakers are off Red Thunderbirds tend to move really slow You would bend a knee down for caring Everyone would be right at home And the colors bursting towards the night Like the blood that's spinning around my bones

Just a little whisper in my breath My tonal complexities off step What are you waiting to hear my love? Cause I'm jawing and yelling And taking it back some more Wishing I would Kill it, Kill it The only thought I had when I was numb Was getting back to cold What's the normal feeling I should get? This ocean of waves refuse to crest Following my plans all along As I train to step and take what I should want Wishing I would Kill it, Kill it The only thought I had when I was numb Was getting back to cold These winters are blanking out my dull
