When I saw the evening end I sat beside myself again
And wondered if she'd ever walk my way.
And then I had some time to think and maybe just
a couple drinks.
And these are all the words that I would say.
Oh! For you.
Oh! For you.
I would dance at your funeral,
Giggle if you're terminal,
Fall asleep while you explain your life.
Oh! For you.
I'm not one for makin' sense.
But this shit ain't coincidence.
You are slinkin your way through my mind.
I'm about to think about, "about the things you're all about."
And understand we'll win in time.
Oh! For you.
Oh! For you.
I would dance at your funeral,
Giggle if you're terminal,
Fall asleep while you explain your life.
Oh! For you.
Can't you see I'm trying not to follow you,
But failing.
I am sure that if you listened close to me,
That I'd still be waiting for you.
Oh! For you.
Oh! For you.
I would dance at your funeral,
Giggle if you're terminal,
Fall asleep while you explain your life.
Oh! For you.

Leon Botstein is Dead.
He's hiding in the ceiling.
Leon Botstein is Dead.
He's losing all his feelings.
If you wanna catch it.
I know what you'll catch instead.
Goin round Leon
You're just gonna wind up dead.
Leon Botstein's alive.
I saw him in the theatre.
Leon Botstein's alive.
If you wanna meet him.
When you wanna catch it.
I know what catch instead.
When you talk to Leon.
You're just gonna wind up dead.

Abigail
You turn to speak without a sound
Open up your mouth
Start to spit it out
Your words make me hit the ground
Oh Abigail
You found me in a state with nothing to say
Shooting from the hip
Empty out a clip
Why wont you go away.
BUT I KEEP
FEELING WE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND WHY
OUR FEELINGS WONT GO AWAY
AND I KEEP
THINKING THAT I SHOULD GIVE IT A CHANCE
AND MAYBE OUR STANCE WILL CHANGE
Fuck it.
Oh Alison
You want another song
So here’s one for you
Turn into a shout
Vomit in my mouth
You’re gonna have to choose
Oh Doireann.
I’m twisted in every single way
Jumble up my words
Life is in a church
Fall on your knees and pray
BUT I KEEP
FEELING WE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND WHY
OUR FEELINGS WONT GO AWAY
AND I KEEP
THINKING THAT I SHOULD GIVE IT A CHANCE
AND MAYBE OUR STANCE WILL CHANGE
Fuck it.

I heard a sound but at first it far away. Maybe it wasn't you, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't you.
I heard a tang with a sing of innonnence. I don't give a fuck 'cause I'm drinking alone anyway.
I don't know why but I think it got my attention.
Baby your love leaves me in suspension.
Cause all my friends are fighters,
And all your friends are fuckin lame.
So whats my name?
Your name is Jake.
Fuck the law cause they aint out to get me.
I'm just a loner with a pension for fuckin up.
You're a shit piece of shit with a face.
I'd write a song but you wouldn't care anyway.
I don't know why but I think it got my attention.
Baby your shit leaves me in suspension.
Cause all my friends are fighters,
And all your friends are fuckin lame.
So whats my name?
Your name is Jake.
