with no pitter patter, no it doesnt matter at all

with meager success i guess.

because we had a pity party
this is what i've been waiting for
this is the whole holy everything it
this is pretty holy shit
this is only an incident, isn't it?

it's the thought of yr clavicles that shackles me, smacks me around.
pounds the underground out of me
that sound of a paper bag ripped in half
that's just me cackling, trying to breathe
oh i took it too far
but there's a definite charge
theres an effortless charm
who's there? total soul
if you happen to look over and catch my eye and just say hi,
i might just shrivel up and die.
dpo the thing on my knees lookin up at the sky, wailing why
with extra exclamation points. one more question tho
who's that behind ya?
took it too far
but there's a definite charge
theres an effortless charm
who's there? total soul
who's that? total soul
had to put you on standby, yr too noisy
send you back to boise or whatever
rancid crevice you crawled up outta
i'd be better off with out you
mattafact
everybody
even yr family
would be better off with out you
just kidding :)
even if it's only vignettes, i'll be happy with what i get
i'll be happy. i'll be fine, bombs away
i know that accidents happen\
but after tonite they're never gonna happen again
i took it too far
but there's electrical charge
theres an evident charm
who'there? total soul
who's that?
who's that behind you?
