Intro/Change 03:51
Speak or be forgotten don’t hold peace so song these string are not broken, these keys hold strong Cause everything will fade we can not stay the same everything will change and only memories will remain Once, but not forever I’m going, goodbye Music is in the distance here the notes as they die Cause everything will fade we can not stay the same everything will change and only memories will remain Long time ago we sang the same song life is leaving catch up before it’s gone Cause everything will fade we can not stay the same everything will change and only memories will remain

Continuum 02:52
Space and time are not around when you curve you bring me down when you go so fast you start to slow but before you stop you start to go this interval is equal to the speeding changing time and diminishing space like when we got diplomas and skipped town you got married and stayed around and I moved away we got into fights, but made amends promised ourselves that we’d stay friends and try to keep in touch but we don’t talk like we used to
3.
Imagination 00:50
my grease can is an empty Pabst the mice always escape the traps in my place move stuff just to take a shower gonna pick you up in an hour or two we walked through the park at night that flashlight gave us such a fright and we skittered off like teenagers at a party so, i said ‘let’s see a movie’ and you said that would be groovy let’s go then after the film was done you said you wanted to run in the rain we got home soaking wet i’m so glad that we met oh wait! we didn’t! it was all just my imagination
4.
Went to the park with a couple of Pabst we smoked a spliff and we tried to relax but there were other people in Cliff Park but we still got fucked up and played the uke in the dark Me and Willy are just a couple of young punks we’re both stoners and we’re fucking drunks he’s an alcoholic and I starve for my art it’ll be awhile before we part stayed passed out at Willy’s place wicked hangover, splashing water in my face but he’s sink’s clogged and his kitchen is fucked but it doesn’t matter cause we’re all fucked up Me and Willy and the kids from the hop this is how we live and we’ll never stop live in the moment, live for today no time for tomorrow, that’s what we say
5.
Poison 01:36
Cut my skin, to the bone tag me, brand me, make me your own cut my skin, to the bone break my heart, from my chest There’s a poison on your breath break my heart, from my chest Ink me, drink me, it’s all the same I’m the voice inside your brain ink me, drink me, it’s all the same I’m the poison in the air I’m the reason you don’t care I’m the cause of your mistakes I’m at fault that you’re a fake! Cut my skin, to the bone tag me, brand me, make me your own cut my skin, to the bone

Free base’n Clariten in my drummer’s room not a knife hit, just some fire and a spoon getting fucked up on alergy meds just so this pollen doesn’t get to his head Skateboarding on his wooden kitchen floor Hey it’s Darryl! Comin in the kitchen door Josh is late cause he works far away his parents own a giant house were lobster jaw likes to play He’s got a dog named Jerry, she’s a fucking retard move a remote and she’ll run in the yard and bite the tree and hang on with her teeth cause she thinks it’s filled with squirrels and beasts from beneath Free base’n Clariten in my drummer’s room not a knife hit, just some fire and a spoon getting fucked up on alergy meds just so this pollen doesn’t get to his head

Over coat, so dasing; his suit, well pressed confidently striding, he’s so finely dressed her skin, like silk; so soft, so smooth her eyes, like fire; nothing to lose Wine and cigarettes big business meeting, he holds the floor seeing her passing, throws open the door not in a hurry, nowhere to go grabs her attention, let’s start the show Meeting on rooftops, deep in shadows what they are doing, nobody knows candle lit diner, there’s ‘oohs’ and ‘ahhs’ as the light flickers, there is applause Curtains closing, bow with grace as everyone’s leaving, one last embrace Wine and cigarettes
8.
So we’re skating around Anthony bounced off the ground he broke his collar bone while we were long boarding So I took him to a hospital but they were fucking closed so I said ‘that’s bullshit!’ so we went somewhere else So we went to Sacred Heart like the one on TV and we sat in the lobby until I had to leave So he got examined and he got some pills and now it’s two months before he can bomb hills bomb hills While I was at the show almost got in a fight and I went to the hospital and Anthony, he was alright Went to Taco Bell to get us some food but his card was rejected, they said it’s no good and I was complaining that the lady was a bitch but even though we couldn’t pay they still gave us food then we went home and he was kinda stoned I was kinda tipsy and we ate kava weaties kava weaties he was kinda stoned and I was kinda tipsy
