We met on Leif Erikson Day//I had to get away from the pain you drive into the heart of me//I bet it's gonna take awhile//it's gonna take some time//it's gonna take my mind to places it hasn't been//I won't forget to let you in so darling let's begin//yeah we met on Leif Erikson Night//I was feeling fright//I think I might have even had a heart of gold//I know you're gonna make it hard to start another life//I won't regret to let you in so darling let's begin.

|
I wanna go back//I need to go back on my own//I'm under attack//I gotta return all alone//I gotta get back to Greenland//when I came face to face with the lonely eye//It was a shame and a disgrace and I kept on telling myself "get your shit together Ry"//you gotta get back to Greenland//resurrect the old plan//I know I can't always get what I want but I'm sure as shit gonna try.

There's a special little island that sits near the sea//And yeah I'll probably never find it oh it's so hard to be//the waves might save you but they're destroying me//there's a special little island that floats near the bay//and yeah I'll probably never find it oh I know that's okay//the tides don't lie if they've got something to say//Prudence I'll find you a way.

Pesticides
01:58
|

|
We drank a bottle of pesticides//we set aside our differences//sitting and staring at the ocean tide//we couldn't hide our innocence//we would drink our wallets dry//we'd ask why the earth still spun//sitting and staring as the clouds rolled by//we couldn't cry until our lives begun//or wonder whether we would even get a chance//we sipped the spirits of our enemies//we didn't see the masquerade//sitting and staring at solemnity//we couldn't be a task of rage!

Walking Away

You opened up your mouth and a sound came out, but I didn't listen.
You told me something that I didn't wanna hear.
So I'm walking away now.

You're looking at me I'm telling you lies right to your face it's all lies//trying to see past this but all I see is shit yeah everything's shit through my eyes/I never grew into what was expected of me//I'm looking at you I ain't telling the truth nothing that I say is real//trying to see past this but all I see is shit and with all this shit I can't deal//I never grew into what was expected of me//but it's no one's fault I'm all to blame//I'm looking at you you're telling me lies you're telling me lies to my face//I'm working my way past this but all I see is bullshit yeah everything's shit but it's great//I always did what was expected of me//I never grew into what was expected of me.
