Slight Delight

Though it's more than I can stand
I won't be standing in the way, but it can't go on
What with all the little problems
That keep dragging on?
Took the freeway, took it straight to your door
Just for a conversation in a sound proof room
But it wasn't proof enough to calm
The fears that drove you to
And now we can't
Get it off the ground
Because you had
To have it bolted down
Well I'm sure it wasn't all that fun
To share a coffee table with a loaded gun
Or to deal with all the plots
And schemes and situations
Though you often have a point
I would like to point to some
That are at large ignored
You're the one that made it two from three
At first, so what's one more?
And now we can't
Get it off the ground
Because you had
To have it bolted down
And now we can't
Get it off the ground
Because you had
To have it bolted down

I've seen the bitter end of man
And all of his pure intentions
Survival just ain't about using
All your tricks and your senses
Remind me why I've got this case of
"Manifest it, don't protect it"
Radar grabs the information
Intercept it, don't protect it
Intercept it, don't protect it
I've seen the bitter end of man
And all of his four dimensions
Survival just ain't about using
All your tricks and your senses
I've just got a little ways to go
Before I get home
I've just got a little ways to go
Before I get home
Remind me why I've got this case of
"Manifest it, don't protect it"
Radar grabs the information
Intercept it, don't protect it
Intercept it, don't protect it
Remind me why I've got this case of
"Manifest it, don't protect it"
Radar grabs the information
Intercept it, don't protect it
Don't you love feeling all
Colored in, with dots connected?
Colored in, with dots connected?

Mystery

"You're a mystery" read the devil
I'll admit it's kinda clever
How it made you feel so inspired
At the risk of catching fire
"You're history" yelled the rebel
Act as if he's not quite there
Ain't it interesting said the fellow
How we've trapped ourselves in letters?
Even with all the odds against me
I'll admit it wasn't scary
Even with all the odds stacked up
Even with all the odds against me
I'll admit it wasn't very far
"Just wait and see" smiled the devil
Optimistic was the fellow
Of his own desires
Climbing higher, every little task required
Your history, led by several men
Your father didn't care for
Ain't it clear to see? You're a vessel
Trash the cash, let's blow this temple
Even with all the gods against me
I'll admit it wasn't scary
Even with all the bombs stacked up
Even with all the odds against me
I'll admit it wasn't very far
Even with all the odds against me
I'll admit it wasn't scary
Even with all the odds stacked up
Even with all the odds against me
I'll admit it wasn't very far

Always There

Never wanted to be
The next in line to some
Kind of faded ride
But you were always there
In my mind, in my heart
Is that a crime?
You were always there
In my mind, in my heart
Is that a crime?
Never wanted to be
The kind of kid that was
Ready to comply
But you were always there
In my mind, in my heart
Is that a crime?
You were always there
In my mind, in my heart
Is that a crime?
