Lyrics

1. BASKET CASE

Do you have the time
To listen to me whine
About nothing and everything
All at once
I am one of those
Melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone
No doubt about it

(Chorus)
Sometimes i give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think i'm cracking up
Am i just paranoid ?
Or am i just stoned

I went to a shrink
To analyze my dreams
She says it's lack of sex
That's bringing me down
I went to a whore
He said my life's a bore
So quit my whining cause
It's bringing her down

(Chorus)

Grasping to control
So i better hold on

(Chorus)


2. LONGVIEW - LIVE AND PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED

Sit around and watch the tube,but nothing's on
Change the channels for an hour or two
Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit
I'm sick of all the same old shit
In a house with unlocked doors
And I'm fucking lazy

(Chorus)
Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored I'm going blind!!!
And I smell like shit

Peel me off this velcro seat and get me moving
I sure as hell can't do it by myself
I'm feeling like a dog in heat
Barred indoors from the summer street
I locked the door to my own cell
And I lost the key

(Chorus)

I got no motivation
Where is my motivation
No time for the motivation
Smoking my inspiration

Sit around and watch the phone,but no one's calling
Call me pathetic,call me what you will
My mother says to get a job
But she don't like the one she's got
When mastur bation's lost its fun
You're fucking lazy

Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored
I'm going blind
And loneliness has to suffice
Bite my lip and close my eyes
I was slipping away to paradise
Some say,"Quit or I'll go blind."
But it's just a myth.


3. BURNOUT - LIVE AND PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED

I declare I don't care no more
I'm burning up and out and growing bored
In my smoked out boring room
My hair is shagging in my eyes
Dragging my feet to hit the street tonight
To drive along these shit town lights

(Chorus)
I'm not growing up
I'm just burning out
And I stepped in line
To walk amongst the dead

A pathy has rained on me
Now I'm feeling like a soggy dream
So close to drowning but i don't mind
I've lived inside this mental cave
Throw my emotions in the grave
Hell,who needs them anyway

(Chorus)


4. 2,000 LIGHT YEARS AWAY - LIVE AND PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED

I sit alone in my bedroom
Staring at the walls
I've been up all damn night long
My pulse is speeding
My love is yearning

(Chorus)
I hold my breath and close my eyes and...
Dream about her
Cause she's 2000 light years away
She holds my malakite so tight so...
Never let go
Cause she's 2000 light years away
Years Away!

I sit outside and watch the sunrise
Lookout as far as I can
I can't see her, but in the distance
I hear some laughter,
We laugh together

(Chorus)

I sit alone in my bedroom
Staring at the walls
I've been up all damn night long
My pulse is speeding
My love is yearning

I hold my breath and close my eyes and...
Dream about her
Cause she's 2000 light years away
She holds my malakite so tight so...
Never let go
Cause she's 2000 light years away.
