I’m just a boat in the ocean
And I’m just a ship lost at sea
Matthew Good - The Fine Art of Falling Apart (by MatthewGoodRox)
I walk alone and I
I ride alone and I
I rock myself to sleep
Baby, there ain’t enough room in this world
For people like you
And horrors like me
A time of darkness
There lived a girl in a cave in the woods
Disguised as a bee
At night she would fly into the city
Sting the cars
And sting the cost
And she would hover over me
Whispering
And we’re surfacing
We’re Surfacing
I stand alone and I
I fight alone and I
Stay clean by feeling cheap
And baby, there ain’t enough room in this world
For perfections like you
And monsters like me
A time of darkness
You will look absurd and you will feel it hurt
And you will go looking to blame somebody
You see I used to think that I’d get over everything
But everything just got
Over me
I’m certain of it
I’m certain of it
I’m certain of it
I’m certain of it
I walk alone and I
I ride alone and you know
That’s all right by me
See baby cause
here ain’t enough room in this world
For a great, great many things
BRB gonna go cry my eyes out because that’s what this song always does to me.
Set It Free - Sarah Slean
Woman in present danger
Banking on some lost puzzle piece
Somebody rearrange her
Tell her she’s got all she needs
Believe that hate will never die
Believe in sex and love in a dangerous time
Believe in grace and your intelligence
Believe in exploring the corners of the mind
Believe your truth is not my truth
That God can exist with many faces at one time
Believe that we will find a way through all of these things
You could be the innocent
And I will play the unwashed savior
Counting on cancer to teach us to live
Tired of all the vacillations
Halcyon come take me under
Laughing and crashing
And laughing, I’m crashing
Bright eyes to bat and hide behind
But I know they’re just for show, honey
Painful and just for show
Shallow’s Low - Matthew Good (Lights of Endangered Species. 2011)
Forty days and forty nights
Learn to swim you’ll be all right
Pull the pin and see the light
Ya, we’re all shallow’s low
Down the dawn treader
All lies the love letters
Know the maiden always
We’re all shallow’s low
hit me, i’m bleeding
in your lounger, on your grooming
it’s the future that’s whoring
the better, happier you
a better happier you

Matthew Good
She’s in It for the Money
Hospital Music, 2007I’m in love with your pills.
Now I can get rid of myself.
If all of this kills.
Why am I so hard on myself?
I’m in love with your pills
I tried to get rid of myself
A little red, a little blue
Climb the walls, how about you?
Well it don’t mean a thing
Ain’t that terrible to think?
She’s in it for the money
You know, love don’t cost a thing
Build your heart a diamond and it don’t need no ring
It gets me laying sideways and everytime I sing it
She’s in it for the money
You know, love don’t mean a thing

Elvis Costello - Episode Of Blonde
The film producer’s contemplating, entertaining suicide
The picture crumpled in his fist, his runaway child bride
The timepiece stretched across his wrist
She couldn’t care less cast aside
The scent that so repelled him that he swore: “insecticide”
And there’s farewell note to mother
That will conclude “your loving Son”
“Oh, tell your other children not to do as I have done”
give them blood, and they’ll love you for it
