Angry


So scream you, out from behind the bitter ache
Heavy on the memory, you need most
still want love, ugly, smooth and delicate
not without affection, not alone

And instead of wishing that it would get better
man you're seeing that you just get angrier

And it's good that I'm not angry
I just need to get over,
I'm not angry, anymore

Cry when you cry, run when you run
love when you love
represent the ashes
that you leave behind

And instead of wishing that the road had shoulder
man you're seeing that you're sinking over time

And it's good that I'm not angry
I just need to get over
I'm not angry
it's dragging me under
I'm not angry

I'm not angry it's never been enough
it gets inside and it tears you up
I'm not angry but I've never been above it
you see through me don't you


Black & White People


one more day down
everybody has those days
where one soft sweet song's
just enough to clear my head

fall on real life
is anybody left there sane?
if we slide on over and accept fate
then it's bound to be a powerful thing

if it's just that you're weak
can we talk about it
it's gettin' so damn creepy
just nursing this ghost of a chance
the fiction, the romance
and the Technicolor dreams
of black and white people

one boy head strong
thinks that living here's just plain
He's pushed down so hard
you can hear him start to sink

and it's one last round of petty conversation
you hold on boy cuz
you won't go down like this?
just roll on over
lay down till it's more than you can take

so one more day down
and everybody's changin'
one more head down
just enough to reach my head

yeah if you're weak
can we talk about it
it's gettin' so damn creepy
just nursing this ghost of a chance
the fiction, the romance
and the Technicolor dreams
of black and white people

We are black and white people
