Curse On You
03:10

Went from 117 to 38
With a 22 in between them
Now you're showing up in my dreams
I wake up screaming
Powdered skirt with a lace-like nose
I must be confused
Cuz I thought I saw you on the interstate
Selling day-old blues
You got a curse on me
These days I don't even bleed
You act like Cleopatra
Made James Dean
You might be a lot of things
But you ain't my Queen
Head you got a new Hercules
With a grave-like face
Held him up till he got close enough
Now I know he knows my name
Cut your hair for the silver screen
And you hid the ring
Made a call to California
Like a cellphone teen
I got a curse on you
Cuz I know how you move
You might be Cleopatra
But I am the moon
You might be a lot of things
But you're looking confused
You call me up just to let me down
I ain't naive
I used to write you as muse
Now I don't even think about you when I sing
You got a curse on you
Walking around with the tabloid blues
You might be confident
In everything you do
But I am the mystery
That lived to tell the truth
You might be a lot of things
But you ain't nothing new

Great Nothing

Standing here cuz I got no place to go
Didn't mean to wind up at your door
Night gets hot yet I'm cold again
With everything that's ever been
Running again from the Great Nothing
Everyone's got a laugh upon my back
I'm a glance over the shoulder kind of panic attack
Night gets cold yet I'm fevering
With everything that's never been
Running again from the Great Nothing
You've been walking around like I've been running through your mind
Talking loud methodically unkind
Night gets lost yet I'm here again
With everything that could have been
Running again from the Great Nothing
Burning like an effigy at the speed of hell
Great Nothing's got me like a notch on it's belt
I can't scream and I don't yell
Keep on running, never fail

Out of Rhythm
03:04

You're getting tired of spinning around
After years of throwing your love around, just to be let down
Always wondered why your feet won't let you leave the ground
What is it that you have not found?
You always try an' learn the songs that tell the story well
But they don't match the way you yell, cuz you never yell
Guess it's getting on time better go on and give'em hell
Cold cut breath break, pray tell
How many times are you gonna leave
Walking away like a new moon, that you think no one can see
You've got a heart alright
It just beats out of rhythm
In how many ways can you hold your tongue
Before you've held it for too long, until it's gone
That ain't the way the kind of love you need is found
Even hurricanes settle down
How many times are you gonna leave
Walkin' away like a new moon, that you think no one can see
You've got a heart alright
It just beats out of rhythm

Hard To Smile
04:30

I can't keep pretending like the moon ain't full
When the salts still burning out the diamonds below
You got the whole damn castle but you're missing the key
Now the lights have gone out and we're down on the street
You've got me believing in what stray dogs think
As I'm dreaming like a turncoat 'bout the Hollywood heat
You still break for a wild time
As you try to fix what you broke with a fire
How much do you need to feel alright
How can you breath with a dress sewn so tight
How many lies have told to the evening sky
How is it so hard for you to smile
Now the payphone's dead and the mailbox it broke
Just some numbers undialed, letters unwrote
But there stands a sleeve with a heart in its hand
Tell me why can't you believe in love in command
How much do you need to feel alright
How can you breath with a dress sewn so tight
How many lies have you told to the evening sky
How is it so hard for you to smile
Baby spin a record and wake me at 6
Now the house is dark and I'm late for the gig
Where have you gone, baby where have you been
Guess it ain't a game I'm destined to win
I guess I'll go down wondering
How much do you need to feel alright
How can you breath with a dress sewn so tight
How many lies have you told to the evening sky
How is it so hard for you to smile
How is it so hard for you to smile
How is it so hard for you to smile
How is it so hard for you to smile
How is it so hard for you
