I’ve no warrant For what you’re doing As long as it’s different with me Is it a practice? Am I your target? Or is it different with me? Got your aim on a type Ammunition affectionate Does it feel different Or is it just what you know? Wrap me up in your coat Cocked back at close range Does it feel different Or is it just what you know? ‘Cause I don't know this default connection With me is any different Than what you know, than what you know And I can’t say this is the first time I've tried to be the different one But I know, I’m just the shot you know I’m just the shot you know You're the gun I know You're the gun I know You're the gun I know Yes you're the gun I know, I know I’m the shot you know I’m the shot you know You're the gun I know You're the gun I know You're the gun I know

Televise My life in 1995 I watched it every afternoon Watched it all by myself Television date Lasted for a decade Wrote TV on my head And watched it all by myself Then I heard you say I don’t fit in Though I did everything that you did I did it all so fucking great I’ll do it again Television’s what I want Sex offender confidant In the privacy of my room Television’s A-OK Teaches me just what to say I don’t need to self-improve I eat cereal at night I drink milk when I’m alone Well it’s my friend when I want TV laughs at all my jokes It can’t tell that I’m alone It's just my type Televisionitis Is my ability Sleeper is the sleeper TV is on TV Television’s person Personality It likes to be the one with me When I watch TV It likes to be the one Watching me I turn its head on when I’m awake I let it watch me masturbate I turn it up when I want to sleep I turn it up when I want to sleep It goes out when it goes out On walks with all of my cool friends They make statements about all of Television's trends I watch furtively at night I masturbate in blue light Can’t leave till I’ve had my fill Television today too Rewatching them hit on you They do it so fucking well Might have liked that episode Might have thrown up on my phone Not the thing that makes me ill Television in my room Almost like I’m inside you Well it's all I want Television late at night Television all the time Television by myself

Asleep Deep in these streets I awake To energy You’re cold Sleeping soundly Giving me Your energy Do you Carry with you All of my My energy? Do you Close around us So I feel Your energy? What you Said between us Wishing I Had energy I recall The walls that I built Between all Our energy So you See beyond her All the lines I drew between Do you See her falling Falling beyond Your energy? This way I fell too far Into the words I forgot to say But you were cold In the heat Just like the things I forgot to feel Do you See beyond me This body Of energy? Do you Close your eyes for Me to see Your energy? Do you See it leaving Leaving like Your energy? Will I Be beyond Beyond all Your energy?

Song of a rose Picked in Spanish Harlem Reminds me of younger you Drinking wine Tasting blood and iron Staining your button-down I was so unprepared for all the shocks you’d take to Clear a crowded room Pick all the virgin flowers and drink your memories, baby Did you have to Tuck those two Pink balloons behind your Back out on the lawn? What I saw Younger you so green Your wrist turning red in rain What color is your birthday, baby? What will I do when they find you Resting beneath the cake I made on Sunday So sick and sweet? *** Mahogany-built paneling By Modern Coffin Engineering Frames your features, misaligned Complicated and refined And what excites you now you’re resting, Bitter taste of wine ingesting? One more mess and then I’ll leave you Flower dresses want to grieve you What am I to do? Please tell me How to spend your birthday without you Without you Without you

He said, toss your bike in My yellow cab Let’s go visit My old man He’s gone girl Drunk and high Just let him see you with me So I complied with Him despite the abuse Slid into that booth And slushy Slushy date 8 p.m. - midnight Drink quickly Then touch me Late at night, after we’re through here Brain freeze early in the year He said, this old haunt It’s my favorite dive Then took his cash out Said, girl, do me right Grabbed my bike Did tricks in the dark Shot up, ended crashing hard But I went down on Him despite what he did What should I have said That slushy Slushy date 8 p.m. - midnight Drink quickly Then touch me Late at night, after we’re through here Brain freeze early in the year But I went down on Him despite what he was What should I have done That slushy Slushy date 10 p.m. T.O.D. Tire blowout You’ll find me out Late at night, after we’re through here Brain freeze early in the year

The way you’re packing all your crowns Arouses my complex Neuroses don’t bother now Now that we’re being honest I went out with a couple of dudes Innocent, shoulder to shoulder How could I know that light in you Would shut out the light in her Who’s this? Well I thought I knew Thought I knew all your girlfriends How long will we ignore How raw you rub me with this I went out with a couple of dudes Innocent, shoulder to shoulder How could I know that light in you Would shut out the light in her I asked one last thing of you Am I what you wanted? Wouldn’t let you respond to What it was that I wanted I went out with a couple of dudes Innocent, shoulder to shoulder How could I know that light in you Would shut out the light in her Filled our heads with feuds Yelled out called quits on this How could we know what we would lose When I went out with the dudes

Too sweet for the sea, you said No blood on a girl who’s this clean I wore all the dirt I could glean Into this sorry washing machine Gritting teeth when we lay in the rain What's this in my vein? Still I tried to say the right thing But you tired of trying to clean this thing I wanted to show you I could See into all those mirrors of dirt Calvin’s treehouse it burned and it hurt To learn you’re colder than I deserve What’s your allergy, when we bloom? Who’s gonna clear up that hot mess for you? I load all your shirts just for fun Into cycles I set when I run And I’ve been running oh for so long Will I ever get clean when they’re done? Your face never melts in my hand Though ice melts on a hot sidewalk I press my hot face into it Show you all the salt I can drip Salt I can drip Salt I can drip And what that drip did, to my vein It makes me shrink from that smile on your face The cost is a quarter, I find Of what remains of my last twenty-five It’s not quite a newbie mistake But I’ll be wearing it the rest of my life

I sat down by him, ordered peppermint Recounted my game of 3 on 3 He said now, hey fancy that I only play that game on Tuesday But where were we? Out on that court Straining tea right into his heart That perfect match What we made of it Friends that can’t get lit Dear Chamomile Chamomile Express, pulling out Chamomile Express Watched an hour, home video Young Marty plays just like I used to And on that night, over a slice Declared pie the pi of our eyes Yet where was I? Up in your trunk Only came on Tuesday That perfect match What we made of it Friends that can’t get lit Dear Chamomile Chamomile Express, pulling out Chamomile Express Thought we’d enjoy it Banking on shots with you Thought we’d employ those Skills we had - skills to lose Pour one more shot of whiskey In my tea on the train ride home Turn that bench around, we don’t care Anyhow, the Spalding’s bare Dragging our feet into the air He’s nodding, I’m nodding too Sleepy in our matching suits Tuesday, we don’t return We let the regulars play Same courtship, just different rules Different favors for these fools That perfect match What we made of it Friends that can’t get lit Dear Chamomile Chamomile Express, pulling out Chamomile Express

I thought of you last night Cecile Drinking out your senses I thought of your resolve Your broken arms Up in a blanket Where are you, staring into The one that wants to use you Where are you Cecile? I saw a wreck on Highway 2 Cecile, where are you? I thought of Tony’s hands on you Your body a little stardom Leaning on his black Volkswagen Cecile, where are you? Where is your mouth, a black cassette that plays In my car? Well I know this girl Well I know this girl Cecile She'll do it all over again But I won’t let you No I won’t let you, Cecile Do it all over again Where are you, staring into The one that wants to use you Where are you Cecile? I saw a wreck on Highway 2 Cecile, where are you? I thought of him unwrapping you Your cold feet white as stars Lighting up his dark car Cecile, where are you? Where is your mouth, a black cassette that plays In my car? Well I know this girl Well I know this girl Cecile She'll do it all over again But I won’t let you No I won’t let you, Cecile Do it all over again Over again
