Until the Crickets…

And you lost your way home. And it feels familiar. And crickets guide you back. And you hear them calling. And it sounds familiar. And they might help you out…

Capturing Moods

I don’t mind braving the coldest winter of our time. I don’t mind racing through our goodbyes.. This is your last line of defense. You could sell your baseball cards just to pay your rent, yeah..

A bottle of suds..

You’ve been Jezebeled, back from hell
Cooling off, feeling well
Tired of talking, talked out
Ticked off or toughed up
Too talled or backed up
Haven’t made your mind up..

If you want to go where they chain up the sun

See Fernando, see Fernando..

Dear Mr Blue,

Straight Edge of the Blade..

Since I’m always filling your head with old Rilo Kiley, and Jenny Lewis, I thought I’d mix it up a bit because I’m Having Fun Now, and:

All your experience with the opposite sex, only led to physical regrets cause,

You fall in love with your friends, but you keep it cool.

Straight edge of the blade.
How long will you wait, come by here and play?

Straight edge of the blade..

A Phantom is Disguised..

You let the needle drop,
I think that you could do so much better.
Those conventions are taking their toll on you..

Plane Crash in C

When you first said that anything goes or a problem is a task disguised in work clothes. That’s when I knew I had to move, and why do you do it? You make it seem delicate. When it’s all the stupid things, so damn confusing to me. Like talking it through, controlling my temper, like letting it go, saying please forgive me…

All the Good That Won’t Come Out

It’s all the good that won’t come out of them and all the stupid lies they hide behind.

It’s such a big mistake, standing here on this frozen lake.

It’s all the good, that won’t come out of me, and how eventually my mouth will just turn to dust.

Last Night..

The heat is chasing off all your friends
And their scattered bodies part to the shore again.
And I feel nothing, not sane.
It’s a hard day for dreaming again….

It Wasn’t Me

It wasn’t me, I wasn’t there, I was just watching from over here, and besides, I couldn’t afford the bus fare.. and it doesn’t count, because I don’t care.. under the bridges of fame it’s always night-time…

Pretty Bird..

Why you so still?
 Pretty bird, pretty bird,
We’ve been waiting on you..

You go west for the black setting sun
You go south to the white spirit world
You go east for those real green eyes
You go north, walk the good red road
Pretty bird

Take off your Rabbit Fur Coat.. it’s July 4th..

Spent her life in a gold-plated body cast…

But I’m not bitter about it
I’ve packed up my things and let them have at it
And the fortune faded, as fortunes often do
And so did that mansion house…

Scissor Runner…J&J

Here’s the released track from Jenny and Johnny, “Scissor Runner”… it’s no Rabbit Fur Coat or Acid Tongue, but hey, the girl’s in love… what else can I say?.. Oh Jenny… 

You’re sincerely lost completely…

Rise Up with Fists

What are you changing?
Who do you think you’re changing?
You can’t change things
We’re all stuck in our ways
It’s like trying to clean the ocean
What do you think, you can drain it?
Well, it was poison and dry
Long before you came
 

Jenny Lewis with the Watson Twins – Rise Up Wit…, posted with vodpod

 

 

 

What am I fighting for?
The cops are at my front door
I can’t escape that way
The windows are in flames
And what’s that on your ankle?
You say they’re not coming for you
But house arrest is really just the same

Like when you wake up behind the bar
Trying to remember where you are
Having crushed all the pretty things
There but for the grace of God go I
