Fiction Tree 04:02
FICTION TREE My mother sang prayers in tears of hope Of pretty much everything she could not cope My father gave up on it a long time ago But sometimes he goes and lets his feelings show I looked up some levels on the family tree There's answers and a war and a mystery I look to my father and he looks straight down The life that he lost won't ever be found I wonder how I wonder it'll end for me Will there be a price to pay or just a simple fee? Am I just a piece of fiction hanging off some tree ? Looking for protection from the truth I see I looked it in the eye and the eye confessed Your fate and your fortune is just the same test I wonder how I wonder what my last words be Set fire to the photos leave no legacy Hanging on the wall, yeah, the dead ones be Standing in a room where the dead ones see Reaching for a sun that never comes to be A disappearing trick off the fiction tree

Monkey Blues 04:24
MONKEY BLUES This tragedy is mine Of my hand of my own design Was developed in my mind When I'd just run outta time It makes me wanna cry All the things I didn't try I was young and I grew old Had coloured eyes and a heart of gold With a hand that I didn't wanna fold But now the truth be told I was a fire in the sky I was a lie, a shooting lie Well all I can do is sigh I used to feel so light Could crawl around in the night Could lift my hands to fight Now with each day passing by I sit and smoke and cry With a hand that I didn't wanna fold But now the truth be told Had these dreams of touching the stars Now I know I can't get that far So I spend my days oh waiting in bed For all these thoughts to stop coming to my head So I sit out on my own The cool air is my home With everything that I done I never tried to hurt no one And the wind she softly blows She knows everything that I know She's my company for now Til I'm taken to the clouds With a hand that I didn't wanna fold But now the truth be told
