Good Idea

Warm whiskey
And the taste that you left in my mouth
Before you walked out the bedroom door
That I left wide open while
I was asleep on the floor
Where we laid
Covering out blisters
And closing our eyes
Oh darling please stay
Covering our ears
And killing our memories
I’ve got a pretty good idea
Of what you really meant
Cold weather
And the smell of sanitary halls
Still locked inside my nose
That I press so tightly against
The fabric of all your clothes
That are still lying around
Popping these blisters and salting the wounds
And I still hear the sound
Of you screaming in my ears
Damn this flawless memory
I’ve got a pretty good idea
Of what you really meant
When you said
You had a pretty good idea
Of what I really meant
When I said I was sorry
And yea I’ve got a pretty good idea
Of what you really meant
When you said I gotta go

The Hill Has a Nice Life
04:00

Finally going, back to earth again
A name in a faceless crowd
Where nobody stops when they hear the sound of a siren
Screaming so loud, back toward downtown
Where everybody has their demons
But I’ll fight them all
Fell back on the floor again
Ran right into the door again
Four hours is a long drive, I suppose I’ll take the risk
They say the hill has a nice life
In between the bar lights
Where everybody has their secrets
But you know all of them

Hello Ghosts
03:03

Alright come on man it’s time to go now
Left all those ashes in the tray to calm down
Now counting hours at the bar where you found out
This city suddenly became a small town
As each person whispered to their left and right side
All making progress toward the end of the night
Now weaving slowly with their pride wrapped up tight
No false commitments no where to hide
Once more you said sure
I got the courage to be caught adrift
What’s left, don’t know yet
But in an hour or so I’ll know
Like in that movie, I’ve forgotten how it ends
But everyone gets drunk and everyone is friends
It caught my off guard and didn’t make sense
And in the morning I was sick again in bed
Trying to find last night somewhere in my head
Probably better lost instead
Hello ghosts of nights gone black
I know we’ve met once before
Don’t call me out now I’m hanging
Only inches above the floor
I’ve recently become aware
That all that’s covered by that dust
Is floating all about my conscience
I’m just hoping its not too much
