Bad Breeze 03:30
Good news, the fates are smiling They're looking down on me Extend an invitation to find some company But what's the point of going when the wind is always blowing in the wrong direction What's the point of trying with the icy-hearted smiling, I could be the worst one, I could be the best one Head home, another setback, it wasn't what I want Slight pull brings down my shoulders, I feel it in my gut What's the point of going when the wind is always blowing in the wrong direction What's the point of trying with the icy-hearted smiling I could be the worst one, I could be the best one

Lawnmower 03:41
Shake the hand shut the door what you came here for isn't anymore You could shut the door Cut the grass, cut my hair, brought the paper in Calling it a win, and every little win is feeling like a joke But I could shut the door And sink into lobotomy It wasn't there before Wasn't on the course Shake the hand, steady hand, steady as a rock My trembly fingers knot, cling to what they've got It's feeling like a joke that I could shut the door Sink into a part of me But you could shut the door

I don't walk around with all of the time that you think I've got I wasn't around half of the time, did you feel forgot?
4.
Washed Up 04:20
It could've been a coup, could've really knocked it out You coulda really been something, coulda really knocked it out Saw you in the street sulking around the town, coulda really been something, coulda really knocked it out But oh I never really cared, never look around so you don't get scared Oh I, stick inside the mud, dragging it around til it don't get done I wanna wash it off, expel it out my mouth All the ugly little things I talk about, but I wouldn't have a thing to talk about Coulda been a coup, coulda really knocked it out Coulda really been something, coulda really knocked it out But oh I never really cared, never look around so you don't get scared Oh I, stick inside the mud, dragging it around til it don't get done
5.
Attic Song 03:17
I wasn't bored, I went up at night A blanket and light, I feel alright A spare room upstairs, forgot every care And set out to rot But I forgot I forgot That if they should come And snatch me away I've nothing to show So why'd I go And why'd I stay
6.
Couch 02:53
Everybody left your home, get disappointed on their own Why'd you wrap your fingers round a time you could forget about There's something underneath your couch Place is warming up just fine You fill it to the brim at night Faces greet you at the door Collecting what they came here for They wonder what you do it for It gets so hard to understand He shoots his foot with his own hand I do my best to shut my mouth But I know what he's all about

Breather 02:36
8.
He plants his feet where he was grown and never known Beyond the point of no return and no reward But he soaked it up And cracked a smile for the mass appeal And he gets tucked in and throws one up As a last appeal For better homes, better gardens, all the time Still 30 years to go from here until it's done A Windsor chair (and sofa too!) to spend them on But he soaked it up and cracked a smile for the mass appeal And he gets tucked in And throws one up As a last appeal For better homes, better gardens, all the time
