Welcome to Niceville

I'm lost inside
This unnatural insecurity
No place to hide
While the judging spotlight shines down on me
We love this town.
We love our jobs.
There's nothing left but what's lying on the floor
There's nothing left but what's lying at your door
No one left alive
My age requisites all my immobility
They're left to starve
In a glorified pool of their homegrown hostility

Dear God if I can't find some resolution
I might as well give up
Dear God for one who says He has the answers
I wish You would speak up
Dear Jesus You have heard my prayers
But You would not pray back
Dear Jesus You have heard my fears
And I'm under attack
I want a wire, a telephone, a book, a magazine
To let me know
I want a wire, a telephone, a book, a magazine
To guide me home
Dear God you've made me so much darker
That my mind can't resist
Dear God I'm plagued with indiscretion
Its wrapped around my wrist
'Cause I'm on fire
So let's burn
Burn it and then bury it with dirt

And the words written in red "come back home"
All the people left for dead please come back home
Last word ever said is "come back home"
When the fire has left my head I'll come back home

In the grass we've made our mark
as we lay here after dark
and the sky sends down our chills
like rusty raindrops on old window sills
And we lie awake and love
Like we're scared of the sun
But tomorrow never comes
When you're scared of the sun
And I burn for you inside
with a fire my smile can't hide
and tomorrow brings us rapture
I want to steal your soul and live forever

I want to run with you and carry you home
But you're alone and I'm alone
Skim through your book of lies and watch you perform
Your dirty dance on some stranger's floor
Don't fall so far away you cannot hear me say
I love you don't throw yourself don't throw yourself away
And these pages want to turn, your book of lies will burn
The curtain draws, your selfish pride has met its match tonight
When you said your soul was mine, I never had a chance
I didn't know, how you liked to dance
A giant promise made and then thrown to the wolves
My world collapsed and I was the fool
Don't fall so far away you cannot hear me say
I love you don't throw yourself don't throw yourself away
And these pages want to turn, your book of lies will burn
The curtain draws, your selfish pride has met its match tonight

I will not waste all of my time love
I will not be chased like a mouse and then eaten up
You have two more months before you go away
I will be the one who has to go or stay
If you wont love me just say so
Cut my losses and dash my hopes
The storm is coming and I'm waiting on you
When you're gone what will I do?
If you should choose to let me fall away
Choose someone who will give you every night and every day
I wont be able to see my replacement too soon
Be sure to tell him just how much I cared for you

It's Good To Be Home

A sunken ship is all I sail on
And it wont take me in
An empty bed is all I sleep on
And it wont take me in
A burning house is all I live in
And it wont take me in
An empty death is all I live for
And it wont take me in
Search the cabinet for the pills
And they wont take me in
Spend a life on all the thrills
And they wont take me in
An empty church is all I pray in
And it wont take me in
A demon haunts my every nightmare
And he wont take me in
Shallow friends are all I sing to
And they wont take me in
A silent God is all I talk to
And he wont take me in
Drunks and Whores hold my friends attention
While I'm in bed with snakes
Passed out on floors and pleas for honored mention
I spill my guts to an empty congregation.
My aching joints and only hours later
I occupy my own body and mind
Make all my rounds and think of explanation
There is no truth to say
Shallow friends are all I sing to
And they wont take me in
A silent God is all I talk to
And He wont take me in

The Drive

All the time is all dried up
There is nothing left to say, my dear
Two more hours and we are through
There's no more me and no more you
You were worth the drive my dear
You were worth all of my fear
The question never wrong or right
The question present: fight or flight? My dear...
You thought that I was there for you
It breaks us both to see us through
