So, you say what do you do and I say the same as you
I struggle to breath
and it's not just who I'am that makes me fear early AM
when there's no one but me
(Just keep me from the lonely
Keep me from the smoking bong
Wake me when its morning
and tell me that there's nothing wrong)
If you're feeling like I do then we could use a booth for 2
we could vent for awhile
art, punkrock, philosophy over a cup of hot coffee
anything to see you smile
(Just keep me from the lonely
Keep me from the smoking bong
Wake me when its morning
and tell me that there's nothing wrong)
(Just keep me from the lonely
Keep me from the smoking bong
Wake me when its morning
and tell me that there's nothing wrong)

Rob the Magic Dragon

We were caught up eating shrooms in our 16 dollar room
3 blocks from the ocean in Myrtle Beach
when a knock came to our door, far too loud to just ignore
the paranoia rose as we unlatched locks
and there he stood, 45 years young
he'll party till the morning sun
He took us into his place, he offered us some steaks
we declined and tried to be polite he asked " whats got your appetite"
he started flipping though some tunes till he found something we knew
when we finally caught the vibe he pushed their lyrics aside then he sang
(Got a gift from god they call me Puff the magic dragon
and I don't know why they put that metal in your face.
He said my name Rob and I lost my family.
Would you mind taking their place for tonight)
Drop kicking packs of Ramen our inebriated shaman
took our minds for a ride until we called it a night
got up early in the morning our next stop was in New Orleans
come to find our host had packed us us all provisions for the ride.
then he said.
(Got a gift from god they call me Puff the magic dragon
and I don't know why they put that metal in your face.
He said I'll never see ya'll again so bring it on in.
Thanks for being my friend for the night)
There he stood 45 years young
he'll party till the morning sun X3

Devil's Dressed in White

(Look out kid cause you're in danger
its a sick sick world and its gonna get stranger
2 shots of Everclear on a river walk night
look out who you trust case the devils dressed in white)
15 year old runaways hit the streets shaking on a summer night
with nowhere to go and nothing in tow
adjacent the casino in the city of lights
realize the mortality of parental intent
although they tried their best we scarred them for their human flaws
Stitches explained if you're in position
where the scraps get tossed aside
above the maggots beneath the mold I was breaking bread with fly's
realize the grass isn't always greener on the other side
broken glass and a bed of nails yeah sleeps a mortal sin
He was a high roller with Chi-town connections
taking pity on urchins
underage alcoholic consumption was the rat that led us in
realize this chester's malicious intent
he asked us if he was coming on strong
we got the fuck out before to long
(Look out kid cause you're in danger
its a sick sick world and its gonna get stranger
2 shots of Everclear on a river walk night
look out who you trust case the devils dressed in white)

Rain Comin'

(I tried to tell 'em all that the rain was coming
no one would listen to me
now we're knee deep in shit creek saying no one could have foreseen
and i'll just hold my breath when the wolves start howling
let them come crawling to me)
The sky is falling down in Aurora
the eastern lights have swallowed the night
look what they've done to my Luna's sparkling eyes
the brothers packed their bags for Winona
if Luna's gone there is no doubt
we've upset the natural order and were checking out
I spoke for those who could not speak
and no one would listen to me
push comes to shove now its retaliate and not retreat
I hate to say i told you so but karma's a bitch and i hope you know
you don't shit where you're gonna sleep
the ground will crumble at your feet
fault lines gonna open up swallow us and start a new
(I tried to tell 'em all that the rain was coming
no one would listen to me
now we're knee deep in shit creek saying no one could have foreseen
and i'll just hold my breath when the wolves start howling
let them come crawling to me)

I wear my Armor, go for a walk
I wear my armor cause I don't wanna talk
Cause its so hard to say you feel
and when you know the feelings real
I'm not gonna push my thoughts aside
just keep them on inside
I'm not gonna push my thoughts aside
just keep them on inside
(This armor this armor
it's for the better
to honor this armor
you'll know me better off)
repeat above X2
but on the inside
I'm dying for some help
so take me outside
and tell me i'm alright
cause on the inside I'm dying for some help so take me outside and tell me i'm alright
I wear my Armor, go for a walk
I wear my armor cause I don't wanna talk
Cause its so hard to say you feel
and when you know the feelings real
I'm not gonna push my thoughts aside
just keep them on inside
I'm not gonna push my thoughts aside
just keep them on inside
(This armor this armor
it's for the better
to honor this armor
you'll know me better off)
