Mixed 04:02
Mixed where do you fit you make all categories primitive order they insist is all turned over by your presence the science is in hybrid-vigor/evolution prototype mutation your existence is threatening you mix it up and taste it in your kitchen experiment what comes out is so random sometimes needing help, sometimes delicious the dream you have is one more wish to live to see change bloom and flourish to not always feel everything makes sense
2.
Haptics 03:40
lost through a hole in our pockets not sure where we went just when we’d started to feel we were everyone else going back to the drink to records and cassettes to all the things that make us feel sheveled and kempt pressing ourselves into times needing proof to feel alive I touch you now I just need to check
3.
Upfall 02:22
Upfall a slow ascent up this face  an infinite surface few cracks  wedged in don’t pull back  1000 stories going unread losing ground cry for help  echoing sounds making music  passed by while others fell  now just we’re two on a ledge  will you come to my upfall are you down when I get the call  hanging round nowhere at all nowhere out just up  can’t sleep losing tracks  in too deep we look ahead higher we get less we breathe  onwards with this exhausting thing getting down will be the test  as minds travel somewhere else the higher we go the higher we get
4.
Drug of Choice ( what do you cling to what's clinging to you try to take it with you unless it takes you first those cookies, that TV the world spinning your feet you're a chemical thing that’s got me hooked I take you little by little I take you all at once pretending to be responsible, measured, and involved put me through a process you know how to cheat i’ll never be cured of you things don’t ever go that far
5.
Other People’s Bodies You want to meet someone More like yourself With less conflict Over cat hair So you can just relax As the planet spins and spins As time accelerates And fear creeps in And you feel like you’re gonna need Another pair of hands Other people’s bodies Get in the way Decades collapse into a kiss Walking over plans You thought best laid Only make you lonely again You don’t understand them
You want to command them They become yourself then
Turn you into a weapon You crave a distance
Just to feel resistance Then you want the hurt To start all over again
6.
Becoming Difficult Is it the end of the world
 Or are you having a bad day There comes a point 
 When these things merge And you just let them
 Trail off With your beliefs
 That much more tightly held Occasionally  
Someone will come along And validate 
Most of what you’ve said But in general  
You become more difficult It’s something  You grow to accept
7.
I want to sell out you’ve seen it before never like this I was once young and beautiful now I just want to eat the market in China extends beyond my reach I want to sell out to make it small in several things been living so big I don’t seem to fit want my face on the wall it won’t hurt a bit my phone to love me back without all this spam brought some samples some recent things hair can be dyed photos redone I know you don’t do this format any more but it’s coming back they’ve said this Fall
8.
Wrong Side 02:44
Wrong Side I'm a captain you're a pirate I’m a stewardess you're the high-jacker you're the man I’m the child back and fourth the nights swings on the wrong side of history waking up as anybody the legacies of centuries mix in our dreams my parents were hippies I joined the police growing up atheist now I believe the distance of a lifeline stretched around my time runs one-hundred eighty degrees I live for feelings I remain mute communicating with an instrument carved from wood falling for people I become allergic to yearning for what makes me hurt I didn’t want children so I teach them instead looking out into a darkness holding onto threads I keep looking for the same thing in other people nothing I want ever makes sense
9.
Mr. Judd 02:06
Mr. Judd met your wife at a party when I couldn’t stay looked like he missed you but wouldn’t say days I thought I was you feeling you in my place ringing ears in tribute to the spirit of something else said you didn’t know what you were doing impelled by the force of those visions they built a franchise on your foundation never admitting the obvious thing as time runs down silence runs out even our demons need to be loved
10.
Weird Year 02:20
Weird year we tried to put it behind us as It reached out to remind us our grip was tenuously held its tentacles then appeared washed out with bourbon  bleached of its semen  trapped in memory glass  where we wouldn’t look back weird year what was that about we start now breathing out weird year now it’s gone  feeling lucky we still count looked for a future in front of us  only to find it discovered us  place to hide was inside us  the past and present wound around us  we had to write it out with everything we had stringing our doubts dry in the winter air
