Change of Heart
oh, how it dreams to be a bird
swoop and dive through the breeze
so one day, caught this big old wave up onto the beach
now the fish is dead, you see
cuz fish should know stay down in the sea
Chorus:
but oh god, under the weight of life
things seem brighter on the other side
The story of this man who decided not to breathe
he turned red, then blue, then purple, so colorful, indeed
no matter how his friends begged and pleaded
he would not concede
now the man is dead, you see
cuz every man should know
Wind Up
I have a choice between the bat and the belt
Each time I hear about the hand you've been dealt
Spare me confession, it's confession you sell
Maybe I'll fall behind but I don't mind because I'll catch up
I want a song that indelible like manimal
I hope you never see me wind up
Will I be happy on the back of the shelf
Will you be happy when we're sharing a cell
Spare me your questions since you know me so well
Someday you'll realize that I get shy and I choke up
I want a song that's indelible like manimal
I hope you never see me wind up
What is wrong with this animal, I'm terrible
I hope you never see me wind up
Farewell my sweet paramania
(REPEAT)
My only promise is that I'll never tell
Keep you at a distance from the things that I felt
I'll bite the bullet, take the beating until
I take it all back anyway, what was I supposed to say?
I want a song that's indelible like manimal
I hope you never see me wind up
What is wrong with this animal, I'm terrible
I hope you never see me wind up
