Antibody 02:04
I don’t really want to get back together I don’t really like how it sounds I don’t really want to get close to anyone People always let you down It’s a tingling It’s a numbness It’s a falling out of alignment You’ve got blurry vision And memory loss Your body’s turning against you I don’t really want to get back to business Things are really goin’ slow I don’t really want to work hard on anything When I’ll have nothing to show It’s a tingling… No, I’m not ever gonna change my bad habits Believe me I’ve already tried No, I’m not ever gonna change my ways for anyone This is how I’ve learned to survive It’s a tingling…

Final Exam 02:56
I want this time to pass, But I don’t want time to pass Grown up-don’t feel more secure Than I was before Stored up and filed away Things I don’t want decayed But theft and wear and tear Can destroy what’s there Here’s looking to better times Won’t have to dash when dined Will savor the latest kiss While sipping “angel piss” Uncovering the latest mystery Finding my place in history The years keep on flying by Makes you want to cry

Breakup 02:39
In all the ways you wanted me There could not be guarantees You know, Oh you know As wonderful as we can be We’re not as perfect as we seem You know, Oh you know Maybe the time is coming to work it out… The more you wanted me to stay The more I want to get away You know, Oh you know Your quirks that were at first endearing Have now become so irritating You know, Oh you know Maybe the time is coming to work it out… I’m so tired of where we’re going Same scenery becomes so boring I’m too spicy for your bland taste More srirach leave the mayonnaise Maybe the time is coming to work it out... Baby get out

Hey, where are you going? I’m headed out there too Mind if I join you? No These things were meant For more than you I got your voicemail You bombed your job interview What were these last 5 years of School supposed to help you do? Turned into a stepping stone Scorched in heat Poured on rainy days Can’t breath and I’m anchored down In dirt, I’ve passed my better days

Spaceland 02:44
You people of Spaceland, You seem so confident, In your geometry, And your perception of what’s fact, That you’re unable to see, Past your reality, To another dimension. Dotland you are your own universe, Lineland you are but one dimension I disbelieved existence, In the life of 3 dimensions, A thought you’ll find foolish, But you may find in it sense, If you ever stopped, And wondered of something beyond yourself Dotland...My name is A. Square, Because that is what I am, I’m telling you from jail, About my new convictions. Bout’ how I went from seeing, North ,East ,West and South, But never up or down. Dotland…My view of the 3rd dimension, Where you Spacelanders reside, Is that there must exist, More than you realize, For I believed so long, In only 2 dimensions, But we all know there’s more Dotland
