Waking up with mosquitos in my bed What if I were made of glass Make your own hermaphrodite with clay Cover me in my mother's white quilt Home is where your heart is working well Emptied out the country house It's hot in here and everybody's sick Mother comes and goes to have a smoke What to do without a riverbed God without a tongue inside his head Marry me and move me through the room Hospital where I can still get stoned-stoned-stoned Take me to the doctor with the drug She gets cured by giving love

Ceiling Fan 04:47
She's not listening to the ceiling fan, I She's not listening to the ceiling fan, I She's not listening when I plug it in to the wall She's not happy with, she's not happy with the sound I won't let her out, when my hair falls it's gone Beautiful hallway Is anybody home? This could be anybody's home When her lips come out watch her spin around and fall Swallow
3.
No no no no no, don't come in There's two kids trying to sleep in this bed There's two white rooms, two white rooms to sleep in Gonna sleep in your clothes and dream about you sleepin' And we're going to sleep, sleep And we're going to dream, dream Hey hey hey hey hey, open the door There was a mirror there but there's not one anymore The lamp on the table falls and hits the carpet The ceiling moves and hits the floor, hits the floor And we're going to sleep, sleep And we're going to dream, dream Hey hey hey hey hey, clean my mess Hey hey hey hey hey, wear my dress

I'm glad that you sound so softly sweet I'm glad you make sounds, you sound nice I sound sick I'm glad your house has air conditioning I'm glad that your mom told you to keep your mouth clean I'm glad that you don't have any pills you have to take I'm glad that you got a mouth that can always eat I'm glad that your house is painted a beautiful shade I'm glad that your mouth gets fucked up when it rains Up here, where it's wet on my back Up here, no god talking' back, and I asked Why is the church painted blue? What's it do? Why does the rich man get the temple? Why does the wanderer get the ship? Why does the brain need water in it?
5.
When the sun drips out like saliva from it's mouth In the dark black hole the animal has dug its self Will it use the things it has to make it's food? It's too hot in this house since we all moved There is no yard, there is no god, until you make one In the chimney you believe to be your mind There's a woman with a mouth but with no spine She can bend and become broken even though she's broken your guitar I take off my shirt and love what's hard There is no yard, there is no god, until you make one Come into my hospital and dance There is nothing here to make me feel
6.
I'll go into the woods, there might be raspberries Things in the river crawl into my tin can Hold them by their tails, crawdads whose ceilings are The moment the water is air She's in the trees, escape with your bicycle Naked, a human is more so in grass Wine is so beautiful, poured like a rain It covers Ohio in open screen doors Open your head, catch the mosquitos in Things here that rot in the city air There are no walls, your room is above you and You become clean in the mud Open the barn doors, concrete caressed your Lover as you are complete Throw away your shoes in a trash can of fantasies You are romantic in your mother's green arms Suck out the milk, spit out your cigarette Walk your little sister back home
7.
Every Heart 02:44
Garden full of roses so sweetly composed in Poems that he wrote them that spoke through the holes in Every ear that's contained in a mirror every time she's near So why get high? I'm always stoned when she's home Open in the window things come when the wind blows Through me, they consume me, my body is moving And every heart that moves falls apart, but mine is half way there So why get high? I'm always stoned when she's home
8.
Concentrate, come back when you're insane Fornicate on a river with grey men Feel the burn, feel and make a little sound Go to bed, you know you don't exist I can feel, I can feel them in my room Little bugs, crawl around inside the womb Hallucinate Her, Hallucinator Don't come in here, I don't feel good My back hurts Crawl around, crawl around 'till I feel dumb Don't exist, they appear, I'm just stoned Cold outside, sleep on the brown couch Close your eyes, your blue eyes, they cum Close your mouth, my mouth, my head hurt Stand around, listening to her Hallucinate Her, Hallucinator Don't come in here, I don't feel good My back hurts so bad, I don't mind Go to school, you didn't get any sleep Go to school, go to school when you wanna think
9.
I don't believe in love, all I believe in is you We'll watch the baby, you make me crazy, But I don't believe in love Help me eat myself, I need help, I need help I think I'd eat myself if I got hungry Help me eat healthy, you make me feel sweet but I don't believe in love Make me green tea, hot soup while I bleed Somewhere in my head, kiss me and I'm fed Well I think you fill me up Baby, your back hurts, the way you laugh hurts Cause I don't want to lose your love Help me, I'm hungry, I'm hurtin' badly I think I need your love, Cause you make me believe in love
10.
I am in a room She called me to the door Dragged our couch through the hall She could sing me a song Climb out my window to the roof I am in a room
11.
Beautiful garden, she planted flowers in their beds One Sunday morning I told her everything they said I'm goin' back there, I'm going back to take a test Tell me you'll be there planting your fingers in my neck Flowers I've taken, chewed up, and spit into the grey sand Treat her like pollen, shake her from both of your three hands Like a tree branch Beautiful sister, know that you kissed her when she came She climbs on your shoulder, sing while you hold her in The same way Know you don't love her, she's every other thing you hate Sometimes you need her, only to make you feel okay Beautiful garden give me a reason to keep growing' old and grey
