The Plan the plan keeps coming up again / the plan means nothing stays the same / but the plan won't accomplish anything / if it's not implemented / like it's always been / and it makes me think of everyone / and the cause of this is evident / but the remedy cannot be found / cause it's so well hidden / this history lesson doesn't make any sense / in any less than / ten thousand year increments / of common sense
Center Of The Universe I heard what I said to you / and it was so out of sync / with the way I wanted to / make myself out to seem / I don't like this air / but that doesn't mean I'll stop breathing it / who doesn't think they're at / the center of the universe / being it / don't look now / just keep watching your tv / hating what's to see / waiting for someone to say something that's right / I heard what I said to you / thought it was all understood / but I wasn't getting through / I'd go on if I could
Carry The Zero I'm not knocking your want to carry that home / took it with you when you moved and got it broke / found the pieces, we counted them all alone / didn't add up, forgot to carry a zero / I can't be your apologist very long / I'm surprised that you'd want to carry that on / count your blemishes you can't they're all gone / I can't see your response putting them back on / like they're waiting for your guard to fall / so they can see it all / and you're so occupied with what other people are occupied with / and vice versa / and you've become what you thought was dumb / a fraction of the sum, the middle and the front / and now it's coming back hasn't come too far / I was trying to help but I guess I pushed too hard / and now we can't even touch it / afraid it'll fall apart
Sidewalk come on break it up / it's gone on long enough / what has it changed for you / the tubes tag along / the radar's got it wrong / what hasn't changed for you / can you wait for the sidewalk / waiting for you / can you wait for the sidewalk / can it wait for you
Bad Light never forget / what I think is true / what I want to do / what I got from you / and all that sun makes so much shine / how this is done like so much science / can't be explained through common sense / takes a firm background in remembering / and it takes some math / and there's so much more / it's so hard to read in bad light / it's so hard to see in bad light
Time Trap it's barely yours on loan / what you think you own / the place that you call home / the ideas in your bones / this would still feel dumb / back where you're from / do you want to change your mind / cause you could never know that / in a time trap / guess that's all fair now because / guess that's all there ever was / gray and sprawling / save your crawling / do you want to save your life
Else finally I don't mind / worthless tries at finding something else / best not talk too loud / you're not as smart as you require of them / your body breaks / your needs consume you forever / and with this lied the need / to be here together / funny thing with blood / try to stand but neither leg is awake / just this side of love / is where you'll find the confidence not to continue
You Were Right you were wrong when you said / everything's gonna be alright / you were right when you said / all that glitters isn't gold / you were right when you said / all we are is dust in the wind / you were right when you said / we are all just bricks in the wall / and when you said manic depression's a frustrating mess / you were right when you said / you can't always get what you want / you were right when you said / it's a hard rain's gonna fall / you were right when you said / we're still running against the wind / life goes on long after the thrill of living is gone / you were right when you said / this is the end
Temporarily Blind bet you can't tell I'm temporarily blind / and how much more can I get sunburned / there's one in everyone / the thought of you waiting for so long / turn your back on this hating / before I forget it took so long / turn your back on this waiting / I need to know where you're coming from / turn your back on their framing / who history doesn't teach it makes numb / turn your back on their taming / yeah they might let you say it / but it would take all day to explain it / (mumbled unintelligible nonsense)
Broken Chairs (written by Uhuru Black) broken chairs your body conforms to / out beyond the quieted garden / you can bring the man form into trust / through the holes in my everydayness / lends sustenance where starvation's necessary / cause my brain's a dictionary / of long spring days and the speech of crows / who themselves are mirrors of apprehensions / in the fallen sun / alright / you can make it stay
