MODEST MOUSE LYRICS
"The View"
Your gun went off.
Well you shot off your mouth and look where it got you.
My mouth runs on too.
Shouts from both sides,
"Well we've got the land but they've got the view!"
Well now here's the clue.
Life it rents us.
And yeah I hope it put plenty on you.
Well I hope mine did too.
As life gets longer, awful feels softer.
Well it feels pretty soft to me.
And if it takes shit to make bliss,
then I feel pretty blissfully.
Your gun went off.
Well you shot off your mouth and look where it got you.
My mouth runs on too.
Shouts from both sides,
"Well we've got the land but they've got the view!"
Well now here's the clue.
We are fixed right where we stand.
Life it rents us.
And yeah I hope it put plenty on you.
Well I hope mine did too.
We are fixed right where we are.
As life gets longer, awful feels softer.
Well if feels pretty soft to me.
And if it takes shit to make bliss,
well I feel pretty blissfully.
For every invention made how much time did we save?
We're not much farther than we were in the cave.
As life gets longer, awful feels softer,
and it feels pretty soft to me.
And if it takes shit to make bliss,
well I feel pretty blissfully.
If life's not beautiful without the pain,
well I'd just rather never ever even see beauty again.
Well as life gets longer, awful feels softer.
And it feels pretty soft to me.
For every good deed done there is a crime committed.
We are fixed.
For every step ahead we could have just been seated.
We are fixed.
As life gets longer, awful feels softer.
Well it feels pretty soft to me.
And if it takes shit to make bliss,
well I feel pretty blissfully.
We are fixed.
We are fixed.
We are fixed right where we stand.

thanks for the fix. i was jonzin real bad..
Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green0 -
honestly.... i'm an discontentment junkie
why doesn't joy have as much appeal?
it's the same damned thing, only upside down
or, right side up, or whatever...0 -
note:
the library of congress issued an memorandum concerning the use of "a" versus "an"...
in summary... they're switching 'em
have an lovely day
a apple for each of you0 -
In square houses
feet nailed to the ground
on this penny pinching
merry go round
hear the laughing ego's
digging our lonely graves
diamond lined cell blocks
and solid goild chains
walking on faces
pretending to save the day
this cream filled future
is covered in pain
The bravest of hearts
keep dying in vein
heroes on both sides
merely pawns in the gameI took a walk so I could curse my ass for being dumb!!!

it's great, justin...
the things we do for love turn out not to have been for love at all. laughing egos digging graves... oh woe to the end of it all. may we be at love conscious and with selfless care.
i'd love to know what prompted this... but that's just cuz i'm a nosey bitch, lol

honestly, nothing more than a catchy riff jake and I recorded yesterday... mixed with a mindset much like the one in "Today.."I took a walk so I could curse my ass for being dumb!!!
