"Wooden Soldiers" lyrics
"Wooden Soldiers"
Making plans in the sands as the tides roll in
Didn't plan it, didn't plan it
Different planets stare down on us
Never blinking, sort of winking
Indifferent as deceiving
Observing that we're kneeling in the sands, building plans
Making plans in the sands as the tides roll in
I've been sitting in the stove
'Cause outside it's sure been cold
The garbage can's refrigerated
Since that's where the food goes
Making plans, making plans, making plans
Wooden soldiers storm through burning buildings
On the top floor lives the zoo king's neckties
Preventing them from breathing
Oh, it's such a fuzzy feeling
Oh, such a fuzzy feeling, making plans
Gasoline flows out the ends of matchsticks used as pens
And I've been writing some pretty big checks with them
I gave the boat a persons name
So when it sinks I'll know who to blame
The tiger isn't tame
But it's toothless just the same
Making plans in the sands as the tides roll in
Making plans, making plans, making plans
Making plans in the sands as the tides roll in
Making plans
These fuckers wanted guilt
They tore me down, and I rebuilt
Much better, oh, much better than before
In India they make mugs, you throw them down
They turn to mud, pull it out
And make them as they were before
Since we shop at the same store
But hate each other at the core
And neither one is getting a fair deal
Sell it all on sex appeal
How you currently feel
Don't need any, just buy one
The second one will be a steal
Hashtagging, photo bragging
No one's even sort of real
No wonder no one feels better than before
Making plans in the sands as the tides roll in
Making plans, making plans, making plans
Making plans in the sands as the tides roll in
Making plans
Making plans in the sands as the tides roll in
Making plans
Making plans in the sands as the tides roll in
Making plans
It's level at the peak
Our words don't speak
Calm down, retreat
You just being here now is enough for me
It's level at the peak
Our words don't speak
You just being here, being you is enough for me
You just being here, being you is enough for me
It's level at the peak
Find your breath, don't speak
Just being here, me and you is enough for me
Just being here, me and you is enough for me
It's level at the peak
Even death just may not be
We'll cross that bridge sometime and see
But just being here now is enough for me
Just being here now is enough for me
Just being here now is enough for me
Just being here now is enough for me
Just being here now is enough for me

Pinback - "Fortress" Too long til fall, sick summer in bed
You and a lazy mood
Ten times the fall, spread, sacked, and I've failed
Nobody move, nobody move
To long to fall
Sat shiver in bed
You and a test of will...
Cursive - "From The Hips" I'm at my best when I'm at my worst
I'm at worst when it's not rehearsed

Come for me, come for me
Cover me, cover me
Comfort me, comfort me
I had a dream
No longer to be free

6 by 6 enclosed
Soon we're on...
The Districts - "Young Blood" I spoiled just like wine, left a sour taste in your mouth
You said, it was not that I changed, I just strayed
In the dark of the night
Love is patient and wise, but it's not always kind
