Needs

All around me I see what weakness has made
Too much tomorrow I think I'll take all today
Am I a poison, Am I a thorn in the side
Am I picture perfect subject tonight

(chorus)
I don't need nobody
I don't need the weight of words
To crash on thru
I don't need nobody
I just need to learn the depth
Or doubt of faith to fall into


Here I slumber to awaken my daze
I find convenience in this savior I save
Am I a prison, Am I a source of dire news
Am I a picture perfect reason for you

(chorus)

In this time of substitute
It's my needs I've answered to (All the while)
And the hope that I invest
Still turns to signals of distress (All the while)

(chorus)

Slow

Morning like this
Make me feel like I could never float
Glimpses of peace
Portray all that you never could show

(chorus)
I'm not weakened by the fears
That you have applied
See I'm now learning in these walls
That you have supplied
Slow
Slow down boy
Slow down to control
Slow, slow


Clothed in new costumes
That weather your newfound storms
Staring through reason
Content with your newfound decor

(chorus)

I passed the darkened vaults of
Late doorways as if I were a king
Like this I chain a whisper to my faults

(chorus)


Dandy Life



Took a walk to a caution scene
Guess I crossed the line somehow
And if I lost some of your hope
I'm sorry for the folly was all mine
And I don't ever really understand
All the things we say
But I try to anyway anyhow


(chorus)
For what's in a day of a dandy life
For what's in a day of this dandy life
Everything, Everything, Everything
Hangin' on every word
My social butterfly
Everyone wants to be loved
Loved in their own way

I can say I spent the night
On the telephone inside
When you said that every single
One of us can find a happy face
So why don't you go try
Try anyway
And I suppose I was born yesterday
'Cause I never thought of things
Quite in that way at all and in that way


(chorus)
