She looks at me through blue and green
All the heartache she has seen
When she cries the sky turns red
All alone inside her head
When she calls my name I come runnin we can sleep all day
And hold each other, it's a goddamn shame I don't know any other way to be
She looks at me through blue and green
All the heartache she has seen
Pull the shades and paint it black
All the things you can't take back
It's the way we spoke, the sum of all the ways we're cracked and broke
We find a way to mend the gaps and holes, and let ourselves become the seams of gold
She looks at me through blue and green
All the heartache she has seen
Soft focus, black and white
Through the glass and through the night
The bayou's up, the sky is gray
Rain rain go away
She looks at me through blue and green
All the heartache she has seen
When she cries the sky turns red
All alone inside her head

Lay the head then close the eyes
All alone without disguise
Color overtakes the mind
Color of another kind
Noises trickle out the ears
Then let flow the taxing tears
Clouded grey that shimmers prime
Eigengrau as old as time
Not a single sun beam breaks
Nothing sleeps and nothing wakes
Here you see not light of day
Nothing takes what's yours away
Mind that wanders, mind that's still
Cast aside what work made ill
Lying here light matters not
Gazing on the world of thought
Not a single sun beam breaks
Nothing sleeps and nothing wakes
Here you see not light of day
Nothing takes what's yours away
Keeping still at end of day
Consciousness recedes to grey
Head is lain and eyes are sealed
Inner self is now revealed
Not a single sun beam breaks
Nothing sleeps and nothing wakes
Here you see not light of day
Nothing takes what's yours away

I took my meds, but they haven’t kicked in yet
I made my bed, but I haven’t left it
I gotta hangover the size of a fighter jet
And I’ll drink again to forget it
I am forever a work in progress
Not always getting better but I do my best
Because you never know when something might come ‘round
And put your whole damn life to the test
Slow down
And take it easy
You don’t know what you’re doing
Just settle down now
And find your stable ground
To be blunt I never thought I’d get this far
Because I never really set a bar
But now I’m giving it my all
And I won’t stop until I have no gas in the car
I am forever a work in progress
But what that even means is anyone’s guess
Because eventually you’re gonna trip up
And you might make a mess of it
Slow down
And take it easy
You don’t know what you’re doing
Just settle down now
And find your stable ground
I am forever a work in progress
Not always getting better but I do my best
Because you never know when something might come round
And put you to the test
I am forever a work in progress,
I am forever a work in progress,
I am forever a work in progress,
I am forever a work in progress.

Snorkeling, snorkeling, looking at fish (fish!)
Snorkeling's great if you like to see fish (fish!)
Cuz snorkeling's basically all about fish
Snorkeling, snorkefishorkeling fish!
Snorkeling starts with you looking for fish (fish!)
Then pretty soon you are looking at fish (fish!)
And with them flippers, you're looking like fish
Snorkeling, snorkefishorkeling fish!
(fish!)
Now snorkeling ain't about killin' them fish (fish!)
It ain't about fryin' or grillin' them fish (fish!)
You leave, and them innards is still in them fish
Snorkeling, snorkefishorkeling fish!
Snorkeling lets you have air with the fish (fish!)
You can talk to them cuz you're right there with the fish (fish!)
And talking back's still pretty rare with the fish
Snorkeling, snorkefishorkeling fish!
(fish!) (fish!) (fish!) (fish!)
Some day when you're old and you drink like a fish (fish!)
You'll look back on days when you looked at them fish (fish!)
For so long it was like you were a fish
Snorkeling, snorkeling, snorkeling fish
After four to six minutes of looking at fish (fish!)
You're officially proficient at looking at fish (fish!)
Oh look, there's a fish and a fish and a boot
Hours and hours and hours and hours and
Look it's not hard, you just look at the fish (fish!)
That's the whole point of it, looking at fish (fish!)
You're doing it right if you're looking at fish
Snorkeling, Snorkeling, Snorkeling
Looking at fish
Looking at fish
(fish!)

It’s been a long week at a stressful job
So I pull up the site that sells everything
I don’t know what I even wanna buy
I’m just thinking of the joy it could bring
So many choices scrolling by on my computer screen
I’m stopped in my tracks when I see something that comes in (green)
Serotonin rising from below
Will it make me happy? I don’t know.
But does it come in green?
Does it come in green?
Does it come in green?
Does it come in green?
Meaning has left my life so I fill it up with things
I can't deny myself when I see something in green
Retail therapy after long days
Makes feel like maybe there's something more
To this life of mine where I work so hard
Just to make some green to spend at the store
I'm caught inside a cycle of consumeristic dreams
My burned out brain claims this is going better than it (seems)
My bank account is so low
Will I ever be happy? I don't know
But does it come in green?
Does it come in green?
Does it come in green?
Does it come in green?
Meaning has left my life so I fill it up with things
I can't deny myself when I see something in green
Green shirt, green shoes, green dice, green car
Green sheets, green chair, and my green guitar
That hopeful feeling starts to grow
Will it make me happy? I don't know
But does it come in green?
Does it come in green?
Does it come in green?
Does it come in green?
Meaning has left my life so I fill it up with things
I can't deny myself when I see something in green

Limping through our lives
Robotic words of love
Fire lit 'til the moon dies
But it still floats above
Single dose of hope
Neurotic blast of fear
Brain fog leaks in our eyes
And the secret's not so clear
Finding out some truths are too much to agree to
Signals in between
Chaotic bursts of noise
That's how we treat our lives
Like a child treats their toys
Finding out some truths are too much to agree to
We all are finding out some truths are too much to agree to
We all are finding out some truths are too much to agree to
We all are finding out some truths are too much to agree to

Shining in the lights of the Disco
Silver sparks illuminate the dancers
Mirrored ball that spins as it flashes
Silver shoes and white polyester
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
Twirl and spin the floor is electric
Everything is flashing and shining
Silver glitter twinkles on your skin
As you shine! Shine! Shine!
Shine! Shine! Shine! Shine!
Ooooo Disco Silver!
Shine! Shine! Shine! Shine! Shine!
Ooooo Disco Silver!
Shine! Shine! Shine! Shine! Shine! Shine! Shine!
Years go by and there in the mirror
Silver hair that used to be golden
And suddenly I’m back on the dancefloor
And I can’t stop my toes from a’tappin
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
Dancing to the old disco hits
Fire up the BeeGees again!
Silver sneakers doing the hustle
Spintunes join in Spintunes join in
Ooooo Disco Silver!
Shine! Shine! Shine! Shine! Shine!
Ooooo Disco Silver!
Shine! Shine! Shine! Shine! Shine! Shine! Shine!
Ooooo Disco Silver!

You can't sing this song while you're looking at fish
Cuz snorkeling's just about looking at fish
When you're stood on dry land's time to sing and get pished
Snorkeling, snorkefishorkeling fish!

Perhaps an hour has passed, I’m encased in steel
Subatomic beats, thinking, am I even real?
Breathless and sealed in my box
Extrapolate, I find that I’m alive
Hammer and flask, my only task is to die
Poisoned by a cruel inventive mind
Experiment in theory, elevate my fear
It’s all in your mind, but oh it feels so real in here
Breathless and sealed in my box
Escaping fate is not a thing to try (not least cos it’s too late to fly)
Hammer and flask, my only task is to die
Superposition: cat dead or alive?
Here I am, I’m trapped inside and I can’t get out to check I’m alive
You claim my fame will outlast my nine lives
The cards are heavy stacked, the acid flask looks cracked
Heaven knows this is the wrong place, wrong time, wrong cat
Breathless and sealed in my box
Scrabbling for anything to pry (open a crack to see the light)
Hammer and flask, my only task is to die
Am I wasting time trying to hold on to life?
Here I am, I’m trapped inside and I can’t get out to check I’m alive
You claim my fame will outlast my nine lives
Here I am, I’m trapped inside and I can’t get out to check I’m alive
Know my name and know that I’ll survive
I want to live

love love
love is waiting at the bridge where one step is always safest
love is falling head first into a safety net
love love
love is staring you back in the face with a flower in a barrel (oh)
love is never aired in public
it's a message left unsaid in a letter left unread
it's a message left unsaid in a letter left unread
it's a message
love is never everything you wanted
love is never everything you wanted
love is never everything you wanted
love is never everything you wanted
love is enough
