Rushmore 04:19
I walked around in the dead of night, it’s alright Black-yellow tee, yeah I’m lookin’ fine – outta sight Up comes Lucy with her long black hair White leather heels and a red-hot stare Drop the shades, I’m calling her name Baby she’s my Rushmore And I wish that I could give more But you know that Lucy gets what Lucy wants Lucy’s getting what I got She’s got the line, I’m on the hook, one bite is all it took My heart it skips, I’m doin’ flips for those red rosy lips She eggs me on with those wicked dark eyes Another go and I might just die It’s all a game I’m calling her name Baby she’s my Rushmore And I wish that I could give more But we know that Lucy gets what Lucy wants Lucy’s getting what I got I’m all carved up and my heart is on a spit And I won’t quit And I should quit Oh what have I done? Oh what have I done? You played my heart You held the cards You cast the parts And I didn’t get squat You stole the pot You called the shots You gave the lot And all I got was a rock Oh what have I done? Oh what have I done? I was a tool I played the fool Got took to school Put in the corner by you I missed the signs I took the line Got put aside And I wasted my time I wasted my time I wasted it, for you I flipped over backwards, breaking my back Twisting my arm, for you I called out your name, in the pouring rain Lucy my love Lucy, my Rushmore.

Serpentine 04:54
I’m pressing on the gas but the tread is bare The wheels are turning fast but I’m still here It’s been so long to even care Mixing, twisting sky, the whirlpool’s rising high And I’m at the bottom sprawled and it’s no fun at all I wonder if I’ll ever rise above The river It stops, it goes Sometimes it’s fast Sometimes it’s slow The river It meets the common fate It ends up in an ocean, sea or lake The wind it lifts me up and I’m on my way I didn’t see this coming but I’m gone anyway To where I’ll go I can’t say Someone pulled the plug and now I’m on my feet It feels good to be done with this jungle heat It feels good to be done with this jungle heat The river It stops, it goes Sometimes it’s fast Sometimes it’s slow The river It meets the common fate It ends up in an ocean, sea or lake

Nevermore 05:42
There she Wrote on the mirror of a motel room Tripping over gifts from a hopeless fool Sorry my babe I have to leave so soon Of course I have a heart it wasn't meant for you And he's Wasting time with a late night call But she's just another girl in a bathroom stall And he's just a fiend that just won't quit Makes himself a list and builds it bit by bit And he Won't know And she She'll never know We pulled a veil across our eyes To stop the sun from asking why So hard we try to keep the sun and the nighttime quiet And we don't know why Coffee's getting a little black For sleepless nights we can't hold back And the list goes on like the riddles in the spinner's song And we don't know why A lady cries cause she's alone Nobody knows this lonely soul She always played the same old game She closed her eyes but it stays awake The man it shows like ill fit clothes His children gone, the rest moved on He played the game to always score The guilt it cries: Nevermore Nevermore, nevermore We hit the backdrop just once more On the back of a tabletop We spill the pieces to the floor He knows our name and he sings our shame Sings regret just once more The drink is black but the spinner's back He brings us sleep Nevermore And it thunders And we go under Waves crash and all I see Is his shadow over me And he thunders We go under Through the calling of the wind And we know that it's just him Nevermore, nevermore We hit the backdrop just once more On the back of a tabletop We spill the pieces to the floor He knows our name and he sings our shame Sings regret just once more The drink is black but the spinner's back He brings us sleep Nevermore
