Thank You 

How about stopping eating when I'm filled up 
How about them transparent dangling carrots 
How about that ever-elusive kudo 
  
Thank you India 
Thank you terror 
Thank you disillusionment 
Thank you frailty 
Thank you consequence 
Thank you thank you silence 
  
How about me not blaming you for everything 
How about me enjoying the moment for once 
How about how good it feels to finally forgive you 
How about grieving it all one at a time 
  
Thank you India 
Thank you terror 
Thank you disillusionment 
Thank you frailty 
Thank you consequence 
Thank you thank you silence 
  
The moment I let go of it was 
The moment I got more than I could handle 
The moment I jumped off of it was 
The moment I touched down 
  
How about no longer being masochistic 
How about remembering your divinity 
How about unabashedly bawling your eyes out 
How about not equating death with stopping 
  
Thank you India 
Thank you providence 
Thank you disillusionment 
Thank you nothingness
Thank you clarity 
Thank you thank you silence 
  
Yeah yeah 
Ahh ohhh 
Ahhh ho oh 
Ahhh ho ohhhhhh 
Yeaahhhh yeahh 

  

Hand In My Pocket 

I'm broke but I'm happy 
I'm poor but I'm kind 
I'm short but I'm healthy, yeah 
I'm high but I'm grounded 
I'm sane but I'm overwhelmed 
I'm lost but I'm hopeful, baby 
What it all comes down to 
Is that everything gonna be fine fine fine 
I've got one hand in my pocket 
And the other one is giving a high five 
I feel drunk but I'm sober 
I'm young and I'm underpaid 
I'm tired but I'm working, yeah 
I care but I'm restless 
I'm here but I'm really gone 
I'm wrong and I'm sorry baby 
What it all comes down to 
Is that everything gonna be quite alright 
I've got one hand in my pocket 
And the other one is flicking a cigarette 
What it all comes down to 
Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet 
I've got one hand in my pocket 
And the other one is giving a peace sign 
I'm free but I'm focused 
I'm green but I'm wise 
I'm hard but I'm friendly baby 
I'm sad but I'm laughing 
I'm brave but I'm chicken shit 
I'm sick but I'm pretty baby 
What it all comes down to 
Is that no one's really got it figured out just yet 
I've got one hand in my pocket 
And the other one is playing the piano 
What it all comes down to my friends 
Is that everything's just fine fine fine 
I've got one hand im my pocket 
And the other one if hailing a taxi cab... 
  

You Learn  
 
 I recommend getting your heart trampled on to 
Anyone 
I recommend walking around naked in your living 
Room 
Swallow it down (what a jagged little pill) 
It feels so good (swimming in your stomach) 
Wait until the dust settles 
  
Chorus: 
You live you learn 
You love you learn 
You cry you learn 
You lose you learn 
You bleed you learn 
You scream you learn 
  
I recommend biting off more than you can chew 
To anyone 
I certainly do 
I recommend sticking your foot in your mouth 
At any time 
Feel free 
Throw it down (the caution blocks you from the 
Wind) 
Hold it up (to the rays) 
You wait and see when the smoke clears 
  
Repeat Chorus 
  
Wear it out (the way a three-year-old would 
Do) 
Melt it down (you're gonna have to eventually 
Anyway) the fire trucks are coming up around 
The bend 
Repeat Chorus
You grieve you learn 
You choke you learn 
You laugh you learn 
You choose you learn 
You pray you learn 
You ask you learn 
You live you learn 

  

Head Over Feet  

I had no choice but to hear you 

You stated your case time and again 
I thought about it 
  
You treat me like I'm a princess 
I'm not used to liking that 
You ask how my day was 
  
Chorus: 
You've already won me over in spite of me 
Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet 
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you 
Are 
I couldn't help it 
It's all your fault 
  
Your love is thick and it swallowed me whole 
You're so much braver than I gave you credit 
For 
That's not lip service 
Repeat Chorus 
You are the bearer of unconditional things 
You held your breath and the door for me 
Thanks for your patience
  
You're the best listener that I've ever met 
You're my best friend 
Best friend with benefits 
What took too long? 
  
I've never felt this healthy before 
I've never wanted something rational 
I am aware now 
I am aware now 
Repeat Chorus


Ironic  

An old man turned ninety-eight 
He won the lottery and died the next day 
It's a black fly on your Chardonnay 
It’s a death row pardon two minutes too late Isn't it ironic...don't you think 
  
Chorus: 
It's like rain on your wedding day 
It's a free ride when you've already paid 
It’s the good advice that you just didn't take Who would've thought...it figures 
  
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly 
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids 
Good-bye 
He waited his whole damn like to take that 
Flight 
And as the plane crashed down he thought 
"Well isn't this nice..." 
And isn't it ironic...don't you think 
  
Repeat Chorus 
  
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you 
When you think everything's okay and 
Everything’s going right And life has a funny way of helping you out 
When 
You think everything's gone wrong and 
Everything blows up 
In your face 
  
A traffic jam when you're already late 
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break 
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need
Is a knife? 
It's meeting the man of my dreams 
And then meeting his beautiful wife 
And isn't it ironic...don't you think 
A little too ironic...and yeah I really do think... 
  
Repeat Chorus 
  
Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you 
Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out 
Helping you out  



 Joining You  

Dear Darling, 
Your mom, my friend 
Left a message on my machine 
  
She was frantic 
Saying you were talking crazy. 
  
That you wanted to do away 
With yourself. 
Guess she thought I would be 
The perfect resort 
Because we've had this 
Inexplicable connection since 
Our youth 
  
And yes, they're in shock 
They are panicked 
You and your chronic 
Them and their drama 
You this embarrassment 
Us in the middle of this 
Delusion. 
  
If we were our bodies, 
If we were our futures, 
If we were our defenses, 
I'd be joining you. 
  
If we were our culture, 
If we were our leaders, 
If we were our denials, 
I'd be joining you. 
  
I remember vividly a day years 
Ago, 
We were camping. 
You knew more than you 
Thought you should know. 
You said, "I don't want ever to 
Be brainwashed" 
And you were mind boggling, 
You were intense. 
You were uncomfortable in 
Your own skin. 
You were thirsty, 
But mostly you were beautiful. 
  
If we were our nametags, 
If we were our rejections, 
If we were our outcomes, 
I'd be joining you. 
  
If we were our indignities, 
If we were our successes, 
If we were our emotions, 
I'd be joining you. 
  
You and I, we're like four year 
Olds. 
We want to know why, and how 
Come about everything. 
We want to reveal ourselves at 
Will, and speak our minds. 
And never talk small talk and 
Be intuitive, 
And question mightily, and find 
God my tortured beacon. 
  
We need to find like-minded 
Companions. 
  
If we were their 
Condemnations, 
If we were their projections, 
If we were our paranoias, I'd be 
Joining you. 
  
If we were our incomes, 
If we were our obsessions, 
If we were our afflictions, I'd be 
Joining you. 
We need a reflection, 
We need a really good 
Memory. 
Feel free to call me a little 
More often
