LOVE ZOMBIES
written by Chris Garneau
eat and sleep and shun
your mother she's the one
who gets all your goats,
and herds them up to hills
with rotten oats,
apple orchard ghosts.
the place you love the most:
your holy frightened coast.
you hardly liked the meat
it was too tough to eat
to chew and grind with teeth,
to chew and grind with teeth
your love zombies.
and all those men you beast
you beast you beast you beast
Jeffrey.

BLACKOUT
written by Chris Garneau
i was kidding
about the mean things.
while we were sleeping
heat rushed in, heat rushed in
the fan stopped, the fan stopped
oh oh oh oh!
flashlights in delis
drinking on the street,
all the lights are out
in new york city
and it never ever will be
too damn late
to run inside
the marketplace.
i'll be quiet then
and you do all of the talking.
when we're walking
thoughts rush in, thoughts rush in
the heart stops, the heart stops
oh oh oh oh!
flashlights in delis,
drinking on the street,
all the lights are out
in new york city
and it never ever will be
too damn late
to run inside the marketplace.
i sit by the window
and i watch all of the little
raindrops, raindrops,
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh!

We Don’t Try
written by Chris Garneau
You say you wanna die
Cuz the things don’t work out right
But you don’t even try
But neither do my friends
Though some of them pretend
And it’s easy if you cry
Cuz you feel bad for yourself
I think about my friend who died
And how her kids didn’t get to say goodbye
Though neither did I
No neither did I
And neither did my friend
Though some of them pretend
And it’s easy if you cry
Cuz you feel bad for yourself
I f you pretend everything’s fine
I won’t hurt myself or lie
To you or mom or dad
Just pretend that I’m not sad
And we’ll work everything out
Even the stuff we don’t talk about
Be easier if we cried
We’d feel bad for ourselves
It’s supposed to snow tonight
I hope the forecast is right
Cuz in the morning I sleep in until I like
And if it snowed outside
It’d feel so nice in here

BLUE SUEDE SHOES
written by Chris Garneau
i hope you don't go away
i still have some nice things
to do and say
i don't laugh when i can
i don't feel like a very good man
but you, you know me well
wouldn't it be swell to find nothing blue
about me and you.
your blue suede shoes -
you left them on mine last night
after the wine and the fight.
but we're a dime in a well
that hard to find they lose their mind
just thinking about me and you
your blue suede shoes
you left them on mine last night
it's alright
i do - i take care of the love
cuz red rockets fly if you don't.
i'm always gonna worry about this
but you'll tell me it's okay chris.
i can't tell you why babies cry
our lives - they won't keep us alive
oh i hope you don't go away
i still have some nice things do and say
like - we're a dime in a well
that hard to find they lose their mind
just thinking about me and you.
and your blue suede shoes
you left them on mine last night
but it's alright
i will try to laugh when i can
i'll try, i will try to be a better man.

THE ISLAND SONG
written by Chris Garneau
and oh, the rage is gone
and oh, the sorries begin
and though, the drinking has thinned
oh still i wrestle, i wrestle within
and then to you
i dont look so good
like i did what i felt like
like i did what i would.
but i don't have my dog
and i don't make a sound
i live on an island
in the middle of town.
so if you've got a thing
with me or my friend
remember what we've been through
remember where we've been.
we don't have our dogs,
and we don't make a sound
we live on an island
in the middle of town.
and oh, the rage is gone
and oh, the sorries begin
and though, the drinking has thinned
oh still i wrestle, i wrestle within
and then to you
i dont look so good
like i got what i asked for
like i got what i deserved.
but i don't have my dog
and i don't make a sound
i live on an island
in the middle of town
i dont have my dog
i dont make a sound
i live on an island
in the middle of town.
