| Wait.
every town has a diner |

| Fingerprints. i have a stutter step that scares me to death i have forty different reasons and a microphone check and i crossfade from girl to girl and i cascade on a wall of reverb i'm doin' forty w/a twenty and i'm minutes from the spot windows open, cherries glowin' as we circle the block and i crossfade from mouth to mouth and i cascade the one on my couch radio, you said you meet me on the radio and not a minute to soon yr showin' off just like you always do ishake it off cause i'm in love w/ you i always do what i'm supposed to do and it's useless since i stopped listening to the radio you have yr reasons and a microphone i'd rather see you on video and this mixed tape is straight from eighty eight a sunday morning mix of love w/ cornflakes as you crossfade from girl to girl and i cascade on every word |

| Wake Up
Next To Me. thank you very much for staying in touch and for all the cool stuff i know that i was kinda slow on the reply side so here's the first drop from my landslide i'll cover you w/ kisses until you fall asleep and fifty years later you can wake up next to me smiling and singing i hope you understand how i'm feeling we are the same you are the brain and i am the heart if i say i'm sorry one more time would it really mean a thing i know that a mountain of gold couldn't buy yr soul cause my kisses never did |

| Silverlake. freeze frame hold that pose then tell me how far i can go should i start off high and end up low w/ you i never know i keep everything you said to me locked away in storage w/ my fifty seven broken strings and messages on yr answering machine the third shoe is sure to fall the second one i never heard at all if it really has to end can i still be yr best friend should i start off high and end up low? |
| . |
| Everyday. believe me when i say that it rains everyday just not here this conversation on dissipation is for yr consolidation when i say... |
| . |
| Tank Tops and
Flip Flops. caught in this suspended bliss timing keeps you caught in this and i slip away and you slip right after me and i slip away and yr always under me and it seems so far from were i should be it happens every spring you come in and change everything and so i feel the need to tell you no |

| The New
Stroboscopic. what happend to you yr not obsessing anymore it was distracting but i've been here before and i think it's a good idea if we wait until the morning cause i never kept it real and if the right words come out to slow at least i'm in stereo blending through the highs and lows yr w/ me so let go got no airfare and no way out there this new stroboscopic cleans out all my pockets i need an outlet i haven't used yet it's almost like a train wreck w/ out all the benefits |
| . |
| Insincere Mix. can i take a picture just as you are because yr eyes look perfect w/out the stars and i'd like to remember you before you ever broke a heart should i take the high road and see you on tv or should i take the low one and make you follow me cause i'd like to know the truth because i've never gone this far if you have the time to waste and you don't mind the complaints i think i'm the one you need if you come out of the rain i'll pretend we're both the same cause i think i'm the one you need and i need you too should i take the high road and see you on tv or should i take the low one and make you follow me because i'd like to know the truth because i hate insincerity all i ever wanted was to hold yr hand and maybe be yr biggest fan but somewhere in the summer things got out of hand when you took the tone from my amp |

| Rebel. this is it this is love this is where we start from haven't i passed each and every test requested of me trying to excel in every chore you expect me to complete fear of rejection has convinced me to stay but if you say you love me i'll leave today this is it this is love this is where we start from |
