I'm falling down the stairs and wonder where I'll land; some strange distant land?
Down the rushing river path, splits in two, I don't know what to do.
These memories you've left are now mine alone, is that why you go?
I should have known you'd turn into a song and eat my room, you ate me there too.
The basil on your plant has grown all brittle, see what 2 weeks can do- me too.
So I've stuck my head into the sand, but when I'm singing I can feel the earth move.

broken watches
hearts are racing
all around the walls
you see me
seven times a second
i think it's 24 hours now
i've lost the shine
here, have another breath of mine
i hate to see you poor thing in pain
i am small?
i can't believe all the strange things that have ever happened to me.
I'll call my mom and hear her cry on the phone.
i've lost my way
i've found the way
was there ever really a way?
where is the way?
we found the way
we found the way
we found the way
we found the way
i've lost the shine
here, have another breath of mine
it needs to happen
it's me vs. the sickness and you're just thrown into it.
i see me
seven times a second
i think it's 24 hours now.

this is a song for the ghosts upon my wall
you've got your own photo finish
and an ice cream candy bar
sitting at the racetrack, thinking 'it's just a quick snack."
but you're taking your time
the hours pass by
there's a pot about the boil
hear the witches scream
well, the engine's never done that
so, things may not be as they seem
the hours pass by
there's a new opossum in town
and he's got unlimited brine
he's willing to make a deal if you've got the time
won't you come to his house and let the hours pass by?
the hours pass by

here we go again
purge myself for no one
i'm picking up my
dirty stick
to poke the dead bear once more
and the bear says
"Hard to believe that I'll be my own sacrifice to find my own self-indignity when it's so hard to even understand what I'm searching for.
Hard to believe that I'll be my own sacrifice to find my own self-indignity when it's so hard to even understand what I'm searching for."
it's "you"
it's love
it's "how many ways can you say, 'I'm human?"'
in how many days can you write the same thing over and over?
but i just want to sing
i just want to sing

wash it away with static
you've got the whole wide world ahead
but fuck what i said
i have another song "for the dead"
maybe what i was trying to say beneath the noise and irony is
I admire you?
I inspire to by just like?
can you believe a troubled young man like me?
i sing so loudly
and nobody wants to admit they heard me
did i maybe hurt something?
am i defined by your trouble?
well, i'm sorry, but i'm awestruck
awestruck

you leave me on the floor seeing stars

Zorkon Krell

Jett had never heard a sound. Zorks have no ears, they speak telepathically. But, on this warm evening, Jett had felt something slightly stronger than a gust of space dust; it was the second big bang.
The sound bounced within him; he had never felt anything like it. Its deep resonant hum vibrated through his spine, or as zorks call it, the "Scallus." It calmed his "Henbe," nervous system, and allowed for a more relaxed wave of experience.
He called upon his friend Cyrex, and together they attempted to reproduce and record the sound so that they may share its joy. Thus, the first band on planet Zorlon was created.
Using their genius Zork brains, they scraped the edges of bowls, "Poti," with their fingertips and trapped the sound in magnetic waves. They called themselves "Zorkon Krell" and played shows in Cyrex's garage.
Long live Zorkon Krell.

Acting Strange

Lately I've been taking a little walk around my head
and lately I've been walking in little circles around my room
God, I must be crazy
Maybe...
Call me in.
Hey aliens, why not me? You must be so free flying all around the millions of galaxies.
And if you find a good one, a humble dwarf planet or moon, drop me off so i can start walking around that one too.
I know I can change
I'm just acting strange
No, you're all the same
It's all just a game
My heart's in my brain
Impossible to tame
No, you're all to blame
It's all just a game
And now lately I've been jumping out of nowhere and scaring all my friends
And lately the've been so paranoid, you should've seen em' runnin' down those stairs.
They call me "crazy"
Maybe
Call me "John"
Cause in a week I'll be gone, "And out of this fucking place!"
That's how he said it, "It' ain't no longer worth the pay."
And maybe I'm just moving on in the most dissident kind of way but something tells me I was born to be this, oh,
I know I can change
I'm just acting strange
No, you're all the same
It's all just a game
My heart's in my brain
Impossible to tame
No, you're all to blame
It's all just a game.
It's all just a game.

i'm waiting in line
don't let me stand in your way
there are some wackjob people these days
it's not worth the pain
but soon it will rain
and wash these leaves away
i'd like to see it that way
there's nothing wrong with me for not imagining your problems
i'm taking my time
and if all this something really adds up to negativity
well, you might be right
why fight?
I'm at the beach
but i don't like to swim
so whats the point in 1,000,000 sharks in the oceans?
i'd like to weed them thin
if you don't like me does that mean we are enemies?
well, that can't be right
and if all this something truly adds up to nothing
you're making me tired.
why fight?
don't believe in me
this means nothing me
i am at the end of something
don't believe in me
i am not made of anything
i am at the end of something
don't believe in me
this means nothing to me
i am at the end of something.
