I've been waiting,
for the big one, for the big back shoe,
to drop.
I'm expecting,
that you will move,
or not.
I've been waiting,
for the big one to, for the big black shoe,
to drop.
I've been saving,
for the Alamo non-stop.
I've been working,
but it's taking, yes it's taking me,
so long.
I've been listening,
to the same two god damned
songs.
I've been learning,
but I could be wrong, yes I could
just still be wrong.
I'm expecting,
that i'll know,
before too long.

Well, I know that you don't remember,
How it was back then,
You ain't got the time.
Even though it feels like just minutes,
ever since it was back then,
It's all gone from your mind.
No, you've got another agenda,
got to keep going forward,
And I'm falling behind.
But it's all that I know how to do now,
And I'm feeling bored.
I'll give moving a try.
I want to make something that you want,
because it's beautiful,
and it'll keep you here.
But if you don't,
It's not any different than it was before.
Alone is nothing to fear.
I just want to try this thing for real.
I just want to try this thing for real.
I'm trying to fake it
I'm trying to make it.

Couldn't bother me now, you see
My back is as big as the ocean.
And I've just put to sea,
And left you all behind.
And there's things that matter to you,
I'm sure that I wouldn't imagine,
But you can ask my dreams,
What's really on my mind.
There's a world that is deep beneath the underworld
There's a world that is way down deep beneath the underworld
But it's hard not to get lonely,
when the sun and the salt make me thirsty,
and the birds and the fish don't care,
if i curl up and die (alone).
I don't want to say that I need,
to see you, or hear you, or touch you,
but I know that it would be sweet,
I couldn't tell you why.
There's a world that is deep beneath the underworld
There's a world that is way down deep beneath the underworld

Brother Apocalypse
Oh, why are you frightened?
If it's understood, then gather this,
I never feared your cloudiness.
Brother Apocalypse
Your voice is enlightenment.
If I can't hear you whispering,
Don't worry, I am listening.
Well, it goes and we should have known,
The early bird has flown.
Brother Apocalypse
The youngest of all of us.
If you were standing here right now,
I'm sure that you would laugh at it.
Brother Apocalypse
So quiet and discontent.
The birds we saw up north,
will be back down before the winter hits.
Well, it goes and we should have known,
The early bird has flown.

Mother said, "Son, you are a young, hardworking man. I know you're trying and you'll do the best you can, but you can't stay unless you get that pay!"
Mother said, "Son, it's not enough just to survive. Making music don't pay the bills. It's only jive, boy. You can't stay unless you get that pay!"

Back when my worries began,
Thought I could build with my hands.
I want to do something my way,
If there is any such thing.
Hoping that you're in good health.
Still can't show that much of myself.
I would have never believed you,
If you had told me we'd change.
Tripped on it then asking "Why? Why?"
You showed me pass getting by, by.
Tripped on it then asking "Why? Why?"
You showed me pass getting by, by.
