Black Box Recorder

First scene- roof of a building
Crash helmet and a cardboard wing
I jump, thinking I could fly
Seems I was wrong.
-
In my body's a black box recorder
Inventorying every injury.
If I fall from the sky
You'll know the reason.
-chorus-
Why, why, why?
You shake your fist at God and cry.
Why, why, why?
You're blaming everybody else,
You need to blame yourself.
-
Candy corn is my favorite vegetable
Kill me if I'm a vegetable too.
How, if you don't even try,
Are you gonna know you can fly?
-chorus-
-solo-
-chorus-
you need to change... yourself.

Vapin'

All the kids are vapin'.
Vapors in their faces
Now they can smoke in
inappropriate places.
Hard to look cool
suckin' a Juul
Vape lord of the middle school.
-All the kids are vapin'!-
What's this generation?
What they generatin'?
Massive clouds from an exhalation.
I puff, I draw,
I'm smokin' it all,
Dude it ain't smokin', it's vapin'.
-chorus-
All the kids are blowing smoke and
All the smoke is sending signals
All the kids are, all the kids are...
Vapin'- vape, vape, vape (3x)
-
All the kids are vapin',
Vapors in their faces,
A carcinogen, you breath in again,
First a cough and then a coffin.
-chorus-
All the kids are blowin' smoke,
All the smoke is sendin' signals
All the kids are VAPIN"
Vapors in their FACES
All the kids are, all the kids are
Vapin'- vape, vape, vape (3x)

Do or Die
05:29

I'm drivin' cattle, out on the pasture,
Riders approaching and i'm all alone,
They tried to waylay me, i turn those men to stone.
After the melee, I catch my breath
Watching the sunset, drinkin' in death
They tried to stop me but i just had to get home.
-chorus-
Sometimes in life it's do or die
Fight to the death, you or I
When life depends on it,
You must defend yourself
-
I'm thinking back to when we were courtin',
Spending our time in our backseat apartment.
I could've held you forever and never let go.
Then last September, we're climbing Everest,
Ice shelf collapsed, you fell below.
I tried to hold on but I just had to let you go.
-chorus-
My inclination to always shoot first,
Must keep control of myself.
Falling like dominoes, into design,
Enemies look like myself.
-solo-
Now we're at twilight and if I've learned anything,
That's to appreciate life's every moment,
Try to stay honest and drink in being alive.
-chorus(2x)-

Kittens Heal
03:31
|
|||
|
Start with emotion
Crashing like an ocean
Water wings.
Prima ballerina,
Only getting meaner,
Her feet hurt her on the inside.
-chorus-
Everybody's dealing with something pretty heavy
So if you can handle, with some kind of compassion
So I beg you to handle with care.
-
I owe a child
For my life
She gave me.
Prima ballerina,
Only getting meaner
Her feet hurt her on the inside.
-chorus-
-solo-
When life gets too real,
Kittens heal,
They take away the pain from inside.
-chorus-

I Love You Daddy
03:30
|
|||
|
I wanna be your friend but I must discipline,
My hardest hand, your harder head,
You're an hourglass and I am sand.
Want you to trust,
Need you to understand,
I hope you'll understand.
-chorus-
Love how you say your R's like W's
How your little attitude and your bubble butt resemble me
You're all I really live for in this world.
"I love you daddy"
-
Although it sounds cliche,
You make me wish that I could be a better man.
I know someday you'll wonder why we don't live together but
Believe me you are with me every day.
-chorus-
-solo-

Insert Name Here
04:06

|
I've always wanted to write a sonnet,
A recitation on it, a gentle couplet about love.
Centuries of art, exploding from my heart.
-
I'm imagining, my mind is fashioning
You like a sculpture, I'm polishing away.
You're my work of art
You were once a part of me.
-chorus-
I will be your Lancelot, you're my Guinevere
You could be my entrée into high society.
I whisper from a mountaintop I love you.
-
I can lift you up, I can put you down,
Set upon a pedestal then spin you around.
Find infatuation to be so inspirational.
-chorus-
I will be your Lancelot, you're my Guinevere
You could be my entrée into high society.
I whisper from a mountaintop I love you.... insert name here
-"string" section-
