"hello Spokane"



Goodbye, my friend who had to die,
with the lights out, so here we are now,
memory of, but he did, he lied,
forever in debt, hearts to bow.

We passed upon, who knows the world,
I'm so happy is everyday pact,
in the sun buried alone as I would,
in my eyes the sun stared in fact.

That's the way Sam played different,
what you thought was your daddy was alive,
I know your a real cannonball sent,
I don't mind, I don't have a mind.

Nothing seems to kill me outside,
"rape me," Kurt, I'm gonna break my cage,
take a stand as together we try,
follow me into deserts rage.

I've seen the enemy it's us,
one baby to another drains you,
touch me, I'm sick, come on baby trust,
the dead lay lemon yellow true.

Let it slide on the big dipper,
school, won't you believe it's just my luck,
guess I like you enough, mud honey sip,
Grandma, take me home, "kiss," this sucks.
