Sugarpea #117 April Fool
01:19
|
|||
|
Please don't let this moment end
I'll be a fool who knows when
He should call it but doesn't
Not with his hand tangled in yours
I'll be your fool this April
A joke would be too cruel
|
||||

Like mother, Like daughter, I chug down the water
and keep it down
in my guts, in my stomach, but my mouth is still running
and can't be found
near your mouth
hold me down
Like mother, Like daughter, we're awfully cozy
on this couch
and your arms and your shoulders, you've forced me to notice
my arms around
and I'll hold you now
and I'll kiss your mouth
and I'm sad to go
but I'll see you soon

Sugarpea #119 Out of It
01:51
|
|||
|
The worst things come in threes
but 2 out of 3 isn't bad
Maybe the worst has come to me
I've been out of it
We've made our apologies
but nothing we do is gonna change
Maybe the message isn't clear
but I've been up and out of range
This is the best we'll ever be
already left enough to chance
I'm trying to wake and get to sleep
so maybe I won't be so out of it
|
||||
4. |
||||
|
Another hour, another minute
another happy, conversation
I spend all my time
thinking of lines
to make you smile
and I’d like to spend my time
here by your side
finding ways to save the world
Another book read, another movie
another best friend, if you’re recruiting
Another first love, should I be scared of
Another first love, should she be scared of
|
||||
5. |
||||
|
Well it's just not fair
that I couldn't stay
even ghosts I suppose
take a holiday
But what if I was right to be angry
at myself for fucking everything up
If I leave my post now
What the hell was it all about?
I'll spend 500 years before I find out
|
||||
6. |
||||
|
Filling every date
Calendar days
Page after page
Stage after stage
A little room to breath
a tiny square for me
They all want a piece
And I want to sleep
But hands on my keys
like the hands on my leash
|
||||

Sugarpea #123 Template
01:42
|
|||
|
I am just a template
for everyone you'll ever date
I better set the bar low
so you're always moving upwards
Its the curse
of being the first
of being the worst
of being the hurt
I am just a template
for every asshole you'll ever meet
But even they will be
better than me
I have no self esteem
|
||||
8. |
||||
|
I wanna stay inside
and out of the sunlight
I'd rather hear Langley than
traffic and sirens
And I'll see you
only you
but there's a whole city
I'll have to wade through
I'm the worst tight rope walker
You're setting up nets
and I refuse to step forward
And I'll see you
only you
But if you don't want me
why am I half the way through?
|
||||
9. |
||||
|
Why can't we just say it
We're two adults here
or that's how it appears
Did I ruin the moment
Did I step out of line
certainly not the first time
There's nothing we have to do
but why stop before we're through
You do what you feel you have to
Why can't I just stay beside you
Why cant I have what I want
Maybe I'm undeserving
Maybe it's time I start running
|
||||
10. |
||||
|
I'm all caught up
on my sleep
all my comics and reading
And here's the sun
maybe catch a little ray beam
before I go back into hiding
Maybe I'll see
my darling
my love in the city
Maybe I'll walk
in the dark
see the Vigilante
and then its back into hiding
|
||||
11. |
||||
|
I'm not anyone's
cup of tea
and if I'm anything to you
It's only in my dreams
I wasn't always
who I wanted to be
but if I'm anything less
It's only in my dreams
If I get up again
Who will I be?
Someone who wakes up next to you?
Only in my dreams
|

Sugarpea #128 Belated
01:31
|
|||
|
I've watched another year slide by
Happy belated, happy best friends, and goodbyes
I'll be coming back to this one
It stung and it hurt and I cried
but only for a moment
cleared the dust from my eyes
It's all for the best
and I am the best I've ever been
|
||||
13. |
||||
|
Don't tell me you don't want to see me
Come on baby, know that you're teasing
I say everything that you're thinking
I say anything that you're needing
I know
I'll show
You what comes
after we end
I lose, you lose
but you're still winning
but tonight I'll be the one grinning
even with the blood clearly thinning
This is just the beginning
|
||||
14. |
||||
|
Not sure what's happened
Don't know where you went
Guess I was hoping that
I wasn't choking
but I am
The spark is gone
You said you wouldn't
get tired of me
I suppose its true
that's why you're running from me now
|
||||
15. |
||||
|
I do not sleep anymore
only blacking out
on the floor
like I did before
Have to lay in the dark
trying not to think about
How to get a handle on
who is gonna hold me now
If you wanted to call me
just to hear me breathing
just to hear what I'm thinking
I will leave it on the answering machine
I'm out now
total knock out
anxiety has
defeated me this round
I'm out now
total knock out
picking up my teeth
when I come around
|
||||
16. |
||||
|
I can't
tell for the life of me
Miss you
for you or intimacy
Why does it matter
cue actors, canned laughter
Over and over
till the tv shatters
Familiar
history history
my heart
will still be the death of me
|

Sugarpea #133 Wet Match
01:36
|
|||
|
You never seemed to mind my hands
over your body
but suddenly your 'love'
is just a tacky emoji
We're breakin records
but its suddenly old news
latest edition of my
abandonment issues
I know its my responsibility
but can't you see what this is doing to me
I always like to put my best foot forward
when I am running away
Its nothing personal
your couch is way too cold
I've got no reason to stay
The best damn day that I ever had
I can't recall but you can have it back
At least I let you down before
our clothes had ever hit the floor
|
||||
18. |
||||
|
On the other side
of a couple of beers, hours of sleep
I could work this out
a few miles in, this cave is deep
Why don't we just call her
and find out what the hell's your problem
and if she's got an answer
I would not bother trying to tell him
About a mile high
and writhing beneath your sheets
"I'd go anywhere"
I would lie between your teeth
|
||||
19. |
||||
|
Haven't we got enough to do
instead of picking up pieces of you
we lay them out on the floor
and they shape themselves in the form of your doom
We have got the heartache
that you're always reeling from
We have got the bad news
that you're always caught up on
Haven't you done enough to you
haven't you shattered your bones
and shook them loose
rearranged on the floor
watch them spell different words till we're bored
|
||||
20. |
||||
|
I put my arms around you
to keep you calm
It didn't make a difference
but you never told me what was wrong
I'm not about to break this
silence that's grown between us
but I'd be lying if I said
I didn't wish it was different
If I was right all the time
I'd rewrite time to make you mine
If I was right all the time
Love and greed would make me blind
|
||||
21. |
||||
|
If you give me a minute
I'll be okay
gotta keep these feels
all locked away
If I could just forget
I'd be okay
Take a sledgehammer
and whack my brains
I would like to just
forget everything
I wish I was a
better human being
I can say that I'll
force a smile
but my face would crack
after a short while
Shoot some happy thoughts
into my veins
Hammer nails into
my ugly face
Maybe then I'll keep
this smile in place
Real life emoticon
a permanent happy face

Sugarpea #138 Ridiculous
01:56
|
|||
|
Just so you know
I know I'm ridiculous
And I am aware
There's surely no cure for this
But maybe I'm starting to like it
Im not sure that I know
Why I wont let this go
Ive worked out my guilt
And Ive let go of hope
You're just the best soul that Ive ever known
Or perhaps just the first that would let me in close
If I could change things
I know that I wouldn't
You have moved on just
Like anyone should
Id like to shut myself
Down if I could
Traditions and standards
Just do me no good
Raising a kid,
in a marriage for two
Realistically
I'll never do
It just sounded nice is all
When you asked if Id rather have a boy or a girl
|
||||

Sugarpea #139 Surely
01:00
|
|||
|
Cant I just sleep
Forever
Cant I forget
Why must I remember
Why do I have to
keep it together
Surely there must
Be someone better
Surely Ill be
That someone you need
That someone I need
To be
Surely Ill be
The whatever the hell
After I get more sleep
|

Sugarpea #140 Sunflower
01:07
|
|||
|
You looked like a sunflower
leaning tall against the wind
and I could see clearly
why he's such a lucky git
And it comes as no surprise
this is exactly what I get
For all the flowers I stomped
I will forever be eating shit
|
||||

Sugarpea #141 Burden
00:55
|
|||
|
I'd like to lay you down
and lay a kiss atop your head
For once I'd like to be
the friend you always needed
You're my first call
I'd like the same designation
|
||||
26. |
||||
|
I could be a better friend
if I could easily change my head
Shake out all the cobwebs
and fix whatever's left
Ive been a lousy friend
selfish and ignorant
and you are the better one
for putting up with it
I could be a better person
if I let go of feeling worthless
and held onto positive change
for a change
|
||||
27. |
||||
|
I did it, I did it
meaning in the meaningless moments
meaning this is over, I chose this
I get it, I get it
meaning in the meaningless moments
meaning its whatever, I have chosen
to end this now
|
||||
28. |
||||
|
I need to know what you need
I need to know what you want
I need to hear you say it
There is no right or wrong
I need to understand
I need to know what it means
You're speaking volumes
when you're not speaking to me
If you want this
I need you to know this
Nothing gonna happen
til you say
What you want?
What you want?
Don't you want anything at all
|
||||
29. |
||||
|
Its not as simple, as staying quiet
but sometimes it feels like we die or we riot
Ive seen your true face, its not so pretty anymore
and now you'll see mine, but all you'll see is an animal
And you should keep your mouth shut, hands by your side
wear the face of your victim, so there's somewhere to hide
in the crowd, on the screen, working hard by the gaslight
perpetuating monsters in perpetual twilight
You call us bad civilians
You say we're less than human
I see that change is coming
so why are the "righteous" running
|
||||
30. |
||||
|
I will be your blowup doll
Just fill me up with all your problems
Yank me from the closet
When you're lonely, bored or on the rebound
Fuck me full of sad feelings
You'll never ever have to clean
There's no need to worry about me
All your needs are guaranteed
If you need to plug a hole
Fill it up with alcohol
Deflate me, leave me, never call
I'll still be your blowup doll
