Fragments 04:13
Cut cold deep in your locality I don't want to be the ghost you feared I changed so I thought I had grown But something has grown bad inside Might just take that piece of you Diminished time my only existence is (rpt) Why can't I just carry on I try but I find the same old pieces Her smile these tears are the fragments and my fears I'll take them all home with me to where I always go Diminished time my only existence is (rpt) Who put the breaks on I need my delusions If I'm so green it makes you laugh Diminished time my only existence is (rpt) Who put the brakes on I need my delusions As time diminished fall on my conclusions You're only in love with being in love Path of least resistance No recompense Those happy accidents Cut cold.

I know you said those words to me with a walk that rhymed You took me in your stride It didn't break your heart to see We misfit so passionately It's a certain uncertainty That baits my foolish assumptions Yeah you have really walked and yet you could walk my line I'll strike on my crude chords Intent on stealing the time No walk should ever rhyme But I can see,can see what she does for me (rpt) Too dumb by half too bitter too laugh Such a synch to say goodbye such an inch It's too hard to cry No walk should ever lie But I can see,can see what she does for me (rpt) So it's in for a penny and total Who wants it all, all When my void is as near as I fear Seasonally drifting to obscurity (rpt)

Girl while you're laughing with all of your friends At my clumsy (rpt) Slow dancing My arms around you but your eyes won't let me see You must be planning your escape from me As sure as you wake up tomorrow And brush away those traces of me I'll be the kind of talk (rpt) When you break for coffee And I'll be saying They've got it all to come Laying all the blame (rpt) Laying all the blame on a pretty girl who wants a little fun Who's laughing you and all of your friends Was I the kind of talk when you broke As sure as you wake up tomorrow

Shell Shoct tears locked away from one another We're one of the same, the same Repulsion and fear,smell it it's here Then you could open up to the big fifty fifty An infectious negative groove lays dull and blunt It's a jaded recall It's precious but mine alone,alone It's no least your deadly enemy I'm in the shadow of the mother-ship We're one of the same, the same An infectious negative groove Lays dull and blunt A jaded recall
