Newness Ends (2001)

  1. Half a Day

    Lyrics: Half a Day

    Caring and forgiving aren't the same
    I can see the causes and assign the blame
    As soon as I stop worrying I'm okay
    And all this happens in half a day
    
    But as soon as I start shaking I'm a mess
    I can't contain these things under this stress
    Seeing and believing aren't the same
    When I see you I don't believe you were to blame
    Not this time anyway
    
    For how long do you tell yourself that you're moral
    For as long as you can stay out of real trouble
    That's why I don't think you should be condemned
    But when I see you I won't believe you ever again
  2. Reconstruction

    Lyrics: Reconstruction

    Between the nameless and the icons
    The manholes and the pylons
    This is where I belong
    Under the sidewalk and the power lines
    Behind the window and the window blinds
    There's no room for right or wrong
    
    Now I'm standing on the third floor
    I can't make decisions anymore
    I can't remember how I used to function
    They're filling in the trench in the street
    The tar smells bittersweet
    Which is the nature of reconstruction
    
    They're smoothing over twenty years of cracks
    As they build more right into their backs
    I used to know if this was right or wrong
    I'm looking out from the inside
    All I want is a place to hide
    All I know is that I don't belong
  3. Gasoline

    Lyrics: Gasoline

    The pattern on this rug tells a story
    It's gory chaos but ordered and hoary
    And I hate it but strangely respect it like Gasoline
    
    Now I'm lying in the fetal position
    I know I never should have been a musician
    When I knew my ears would lose their audition
    Gasoline
    I like the way you smell
    Gasoline
    I never knew I knew you so well
    
    We always know just what to do
    Until the future comes
    Now look what we've been through
    
    Only cowards seek refuge in a second language
    I should have learned how to speak my native one
    I was afraid I wouldn't know how to use my tongue
    Gasoline
    You're more than a finished product
    Running down the aqueduct
    
    What I should do and what I do are like brothers
    They're driven by so much more than they're needed
    That they're blinded they can't see they're both
    Driven by
    Gasoline leaking through an empty tank
    Gasoline
    The future's never what I think
    
    I thought we knew what we were doing
    But we've considered the unthinkable
  4. Great Expectations

    Lyrics: Great Expectations

    When I was younger I never wondered
    
    About the ways I was trapped
    I thought I was moving
    My skin was improving
    On my face and on my back
    But the one thing I never lacked
    Was the faith you'd always come back
    How could I have been so wrong
    
    Ten years later I'm not more a savior
    I still can't convince the dead not to die
    I thought I was growing
    My age has been showing
    Is that just a way age can lie
    What led me to feel so secure
    This was the one thing we couldn't insure
    How could have been so wrong
    
    As I get older should I get bolder
    Or will disappoint be even worse
    And once I start shrinking
    Should I start thinking
    That expectations never die
  5. Simple Life
  6. One Plus One Minus One Equals One
  7. Alter Ego

    Lyrics: Alter Ego

    Of the acceptable reactions to tragedy
    Gardening, the priesthood and insanity
    Look what you've chosen
    Just to be disingenuous to the letter
    
    I can't force you to fail or force you to shut up
    And I don't want you to fail
    I want you to show up
    But you're making a choice to which it's hard not to
    Stick
    
    How can a true confidant be unworthy of trust
    How can such a simpering git get what he wants
    I can't force you to fail or force you to show up
    And I don't want you to fail
    I want you to shut up
    But you're making a choice to which I hope you don't
    Stick
  8. The Block That Doesn't Exist
  9. Carne Levare
  10. Newness Ends

    Lyrics: Newness Ends

    I don't need these things if I'll lose them again
    This house looks like a bankrupt museum
    But I'm not like you
    I don't want to go zen
    This is what happens when the newness ends
    And in my defense you were the one
    But there's no difference because I'm not done
    I'm gonna clean my room and get me a friend
    This is what happens when the newness ends
    
    And you can't see that I won't be that way for you
    Again
    
    We watched the rust get covered in frost
    When you lose your lust you're never so lost
    When the day's as long as this is wrong
    There are things still here but everything's gone
    Is this what happens when you have a friend
    This is what happens when the newness ends
    
    And you can't see that you won't be that way for me
    Again.

The End Is Near (2004)

  1. The End's Not Near

    Lyrics: The End's Not Near

    The end's not near
    It's here
    Hallelujah
    Spread the cheer
    And watch the millenarians
    Throw a party for a thousand years
    
    You won't see the pious praying
    They'll be too busy flaying
    All the martyrs with better ways
    To stop the world decaying
    
    If you call me I won't be home
    I'm hiding from the kingdom come
    They can't see everything on earth
    With the satellites and the roving drones
    
    This is why hell is underground
    Like a reclaimed bad part of town
    We don't want to lose our souls
    We're the saints who don't want to be found
  2. Sinking Ship

    Lyrics: Sinking Ship

    Sinking Ship
    
    I'm driving slow
    Because I don't want to show up early
    There's nothing worse than a party
    When you don't know anybody
    
    The men want to get it on
    The women want to show it off
    I just want to get out of here
    And unhook my smile from my ears
    
    The exit may be behind you
    Take some time to look
    When this party crashes
    That's time you'll wish you took
    
    Because all these quick friendships
    Can't survive a sinking ship
    I just want to get through
    That bad vodka and the dip
    
    -Matt Kadane
  3. Chinese Handcuffs

    Lyrics: Chinese Handcuffs

    Chinese Handcuffs
    
    I've come to face myself
    In a staring contest in the mirror
    Where there's more chance of victory
    Than in an argument with you
    
    We're not two peas in a pod
    We're two fingers in Chinese handcuffs
    The more we pull we stay
    The more we stay we pull
    Apart this wicker toy
    With it the joy
    The things that bind in pain
    Keep us in love
  4. Plan B

    Lyrics: Plan B

    Plan B
    
    This isn't breaking my back
    But my spirit
    You know that it is
    when you just take it
    and start to forget who you were
    
    It's not just the hours
    that feel so wasted
    I've wasted more than this
    when I used to just look
    for a way around everything
    
    I did it all to stay clean
    It was instinct
    
    This isn't hard on my hands
    And I wouldn't care if it was
    I'd rather not even think
    if I have to think
    inside this other world
    
    This may be just what I need
    Keep everything separated
    
    I'll never really stay clean
    No way I can see
    
    This may be just what I need
    Keep everything
    
    It may be what I need
    But it's not what I want
    Anymore
    
    -Bubba Kadane
  5. Disease

    Lyrics: Disease

    It was summer
    And a hundred and six degrees
    The air was hot water
    There was no motion in the trees
    And in this weather only two things grow
    Or three
    Frustration
    Hot tempers
    And disease
    
    That menace has found us again
    It's not just the old giving up and in
    Don't let it take your breath away
    
    We're all feeling ill at ease
    Since we were swinging through the trees
    And everyone knows that no one will ever know the true source of
    disease
    
    I don't know about God
    But I'm sure there's a devil
    You see it in the eyes
    Of every man and woman who's ill
    I don't know about heaven or our souls
    But our bodies are all going to hell
    
    And disease has found us again
    In a few healthy years
    Did we think it would end
    Don't let it take your breath away
  6. Age of Conceit

    Lyrics: Age of Conceit

    Age of Conceit
    
    Last week I would have said there's no way
    Today I'm giving in
    I don't believe in what I now have to believe in
    But no one sees and end to the end
    
    I have a recurrent memory
    The world has its legs spread in front of me
    Now they mark off the limits of the possible
    They went on forever now they come together
    
    But legs can't stay uncrossed for long
    The pleasure can't escape the perverse
    We have to stay together
    The men have taken over
    The vainglorious masters of fact
    Give me back my childhood
    But let me keep my beard
    I'll be the freakish little man
    
    Do you feel inspired
    I'm not fired up (all I feel is tired)
    There's no motive in misery
    
    You're smiling through your teeth
    It's shaken your belief
    There's no hiding in self loathing
    
    Your friends are digging in
    And squirting out their kin
    And giving up on self-definition
    
    This is a new age of conceit
  7. Start

    Lyrics: Start

    Start
    
    I left everything a mile from here
    I dropped it when I thought it was the end
    Can I go back and get everything I left
    And start where I stopped
    
    You mean it's too late to change my mind
    I have to live with my decision
    Quitting at the first sign of trouble
    and have to live with the decision
    
    Can I still go back and get anything
    and start where I stopped
    Pick up everything I left
    so I can just start where I stopped
    
    You mean there's no way to turn around
    I have to live without revision
    Learning too late to do any good
    and I have to live with my decisions
    
    Just let me go
    Let me go back
  8. 18

    Lyrics: 18

    Even when you're looking
    Out of a body that's one day away
    From being a corpse
    You still feel eighteen on the inside
    
    This is something you should know
    There's no escaping getting old
    But did I hear that when I was told so
    When I was eighteen on the outside
    
    Even when you're smiling
    From the side of your mouth
    I can hear you say that you want out
    You still feel carefree on the inside
    
    Somebody come through that window
    And get me out of here
    I thought we'd go through together
    But I've never been so wrong
  9. Stranger to Kindness

    Lyrics: Stranger to Kindness

    Your teeth are grinding down into sand
    Your fingers are coming through your hands
    Your hair is graying
    Your eyes are shaking
    
    You can't expect the kindness of strangers
    From those strangers to kindness
    But don't acquiesce
    Control your anger
    You're in danger in this part of the world
    
    Are we cowards
    Are they jackals
    Are we bitter
    Or better off than they are
    
    They jump into bed like it's the end of the world
    Have those girls never seen boys
    And have those boys ever loved men
    They ones who give head to get ahead

The New Year (2008)

  1. Folios

    Lyrics: Folios

    I'm heading straight where I never go
    There's no more hiding in these folios
    Each page has known what the first one showed
    There're still three more hours of sunlight
    
    And in this dream of a cottage on a hill
    There was no view of the life that makes it real
    Here in May and only the trees
    Want to leave like I do
    
    I don't think the good years I've got can wait
    So what are we staying for
  2. The Company I Can Get

    Lyrics: The Company I Can Get

    It felt so fitting
    As I crossed the state line
    As the last chord rang out
    And the tape started to unwind
    As my knuckles on the wheel
    Made a perfect gun-sight
    And each car that fell there
    I could vanish from the light
    But God knows I wouldn't
    I need all the company I can get
    Even that redneck
    In the red corvette
    The highway takes
    A toll on your soul
    The odometer reads miles
    Like time calling roll
    In the broken road kill
    It's there in their eyes
    Was I put here
    To be food for the flies
    God knows if I wasn't
    It's for the company I can get
    Even that redneck
    In the red corvette
  3. X Off Days

    Lyrics: X Off Days

    I can't remember why it felt so good
    When you and I made our plans to get away
    It's not like it's some kind of great escape
    When you only manage not to suffocate
    
    But the accidents that brought us here
    The excuses for another year
    Give us minimal air
    Enough to make us forget why we care
    
    It's not that easy to overcome this hyper-caution
    When your moral life is this fragile
    And this town is always watching
    
    So we x off days on the calendar
    And nothing really moves any faster
  4. The Door Opens

    Lyrics: The Door Opens

    There's no design
    Just try to see yourself
    Without looking through a fairy tale
    The door opens and all hell blows in
    
    All this torn skin, bones, blood, and snot
    Reminds us of what we wish we were not
    The door opens and all hell blows in
    
    All the dust blown into a cloud
    It's unsettled and can't find its way around
    It keeps lifting and then it flies right out
    It keeps lifting and then it flies right
    
    Out to the sun
    As far as it can ride the gust
    Into the grass
    To move with whatever comes
    Into the water
    To sink to the bottom mud
    Into the water
    To the mud
    
    The door's open
    And it's never going to close
    The door's open
    It's jammed with everything you know
    The door's open
    And it's what you've always known
  5. MMV

    Lyrics: MMV

    There are things some people classify as pleasures
    That just before I die I'll have no regrets for having missed
    Camping and orgies and places on the body I've never kissed
    
    But however you define whatever you have in mind
    We both have a need for things we don't need
    Like belief and relief and pleasure and grief
    
    Now I'm sitting here waiting to leave New Year's Eve
    Nothing good came from MMV
    But death and destruction and my new resolution
    To drink more and laugh more and sleep more and dream more
  6. Seven Days and Seven Nights

    Lyrics: Seven Days and Seven Nights

    In seven days and seven nights
    Will we forget the long flight
    And now that we're here
    Is there no way we can stay for a year
    And at least keep the sun on our skin
    The make-up for a fading grin
    I don't want to go home
    Dial my boss and hand me the phone
    Now I'm back behind my desk
    Calculating all the risk
    That I'd never take
    I have my one week in the sun
    To bake
  7. Wages of Sleep

    Lyrics: Wages of Sleep

    I have a feeling
    And feelings can sometimes tow the line
    That everything will always work out next time
    Better than it has the other days
    Eight hours of sleep can make anything go away
    Until it comes back into my mind
    If I had reason to think things would be different this time
    Now I see
    I've planted all of the evidence that I find
    That my habits will get me somewhere
    
    I have a feeling
    That this will work out halfway alright
    The wages of sleeping are compromise
    And feelings that tell a lot of lies
    Ten hours of sleep can make anything go away
    And never come back into my mind
    I'd have reason to think things will be different this time
    If I'd never
    Planted all of the evidence that I find
    That my habits will get me somewhere
  8. Body and Soul

    Lyrics: Body and Soul

    I don't want a body without a soul
    Here's just one more thing I can't control
    Like my fingers and my mouth
    Like my temper and my doubts
    That's why I'm sorry to subject you
    With all the things I do
    To what by now you know is the image of you
    
    We're not who we thought
    We were who we're not
    There are two ways to go on
    To forget or not to go on
    And still I'm sorry to subject you
    With all the things I do
    To what for long you've known is the image of you
  9. My Neighbourhood
  10. The Idea of You

    Lyrics: The Idea of You

    The girls in the back of the room
    Having the time of their lives
    As they sing out of tune
    You know I'll be going soon
    To the back of the room
    
    Because I can't keep
    Calling my mother
    I need another kind of other
    And even though I love my brother
    He won't do
    
    Like you up against the back wall
    I know you've heard it all
    But you should know I want nothing more
    Than the idea of you
    
    It's not that I'm dying
    To be young again
    But the last few years
    Have turned me into an alien
    And you should know
    That you're just filling in
    For the idea of you
