Means to an End

I used to try to make
This like job for the day
With deadlines and task lists
And promo highs was the pay
Those days are gone
But I know how we’ll move on
These guys were a means to an end
These times I had a goal in my head
Numbers and eyes
And how they’d like the size
Gave me more of a rise
Than making sure it was right
Now I’ll take all year
Or just a day if we like what we hear
These guys were a means to an end
These times I had a goal in my head
Now they fill a space so precious
We’ll find weekends to the end
It’s not too late
To keep working late
And getting a…
It’ll always come as a thrill
To walk in when it’s filled
Small quick tips of the swill
And get up there and just kill
These guys bring it to the end
These times we’ve got a goal in our heads
Now they mean more in the same room
These ties brought us all an odd friend

Offer
03:31

Is it even real?
I barely hear that sound
My name is called
Then I come around
Wake me up
Take me up on my offer
I’ll keep ‘em hushed while you sleep
Is it my turn?
I thought it was just my turn
Why haven’t I learned
to shut it off after three and not get burned
Wake me up
Take me up on my offer
I’ll keep ‘em hushed while you sleep
I’ll go downstairs and be the one that they bother
I got this one, it’s all me
Every other day
Pillow over head
I’ll take one for our team
Stay honey, stay in bed

Take Time
03:54

Hours on the train listening to drivel
I’m sitting right here, put your head on a swivel
It’s not the way that they say certain words
It’s not the reasons that sound so absurd
Maybe it’s all of of days that have passed
I think it happened everywhere fast
Meaningless time, empty hours
With all the noise, this space should be ours
Just wait…until you have more to raise
Just take…your time until those days
"How many horsepower is that bad boy?"
"What’re the specs on that little toy?"
"Who’s your guy who can take care of this thing?"
"Ooh we can’t wait, what should we bring?"
I need the get the fuck out of dodge
Pack up my gear, I miss the smell of that garage
Not who they root for that drives me to drink
Not how they say my favorites stink
Even with how this looks just like my home
Even with how my my brood loves to roam

Development
03:48

You wanted and you wanted
In the way, in the way that you planned
And your mother and your father
had no say, how you’d land
To ride every signpost like a wave
towards the sand
It feels as foreign as outer space
What’s at hand
A forecast before the storm
Licked finger in the air
The two of us are keeping this development warm
I won’t know till I know that face, face
feet and hands
It’s hard not to focus on myself on myself
and who I am
Lost outside the limelight but I understand
I imagine this is how it finally feels to be a man
A forecast before the storm
Licked finger in the air
The two of us are keeping this development warm

You're Right There

I lay on my belly
Make sure it's not gonna fall
Take pictures of my behind
It never gets old
A coffee can top covered in glue
A piece of paper with a child's hand run out of room
Pins to form the spokes of the wheel
I love you mom & dad
Scratch my head
And sing down on my hair
Tell me stories by the fireplace
You're right there
Sitting at the top of the stairs
We waited for the signal
Not much sleep after making fart sounds
I can't wait to go see it all!
Scratch my head
And sing down on my hair
Tell me stories by the fireplace
You're right there
A extra heavy breakfast
Tossled hair and pajama feet
A pizza made of chocolate and cherries
But I miss you being there the most
Scratch my head
And sing down on my hair
Tell me stories by the fireplace
You're right there
