Before the Rest - Official Lyrics

by Levi Robinheart

[VS1]: Keep your brains up there Workin and a-chewin’ That’s the way to do it Pour some flowers o’er Wind’ll take you through it Out before you knew it Search through all the parts that drive you mad All the cars, they can turn you to a nomad Just a breath right here Out before you knew it

[CH1]: No, it’s not fair I miss your face You can look but you can’t go back Give your buddies some before the rest of your life comes

[VS2]: Dip your fingers in Feel the water wiggle Stay because it tickles Reach as far as you can One day we’ll have made it First we gotta weigh it In a year you won’t believe how far you walked When you land you’ll be ahead of what you stepped on Once the gloves come off I swear I’m gonna squeeze you

[CH2]: I know this year took our lunch but every wild horse has its run before you see the sky and the rest of our lives come

[BR]: The moonshine makes you wither The dirt clumps start to smither The cows come home to visit The clouds don’t like my flowers I wish I said the thinking I feel my toes are sinking From what I know I liked you If I knew, I’d’ve said you’re lovely

[DA-DA-DAs]: (da da daaa-dat da-da da-da-da) (da da daaa-dat da-da da-da-da-da-da-da) [x4]

[CH3]: It’s just a break It’s not that long It’s just another sixteen minute song A few deep breaths You’ll still look good I’ll see you when you’re swimmin’ in the Sun and when we’re there I swear to god I’ll hold you with every last bleeding inch We will see the sky

before the rest of my life comes and pulls me away

Musical Lips by Levi Robinheart

image

Feels like I just woke up Where's that music comin from? I don't remember drivin' over but somethin' just told me I should get less comf'table 'Nd I never seem to say what I mean but I swear I mean it now Keep an eye on your friends Drink up your insecurities with me if you haven't got a number

Well you sang (you sang) your heart out, Miss Yesterday (Miss, Miss, Miss Yesterday) But you'll come back some other way And we'll blame all the rain on the door and the frame 'Cause life just happens anyway

It's almost New Year's Day Champagne has found its wings They're cryin' out for one more heartache One round of musical lips is passing by (yiay-yiay-yaiy-yiay-yiay-yiay-yiay)

Been watchin' him all night Oh, you gotta be quicker than that I pictured there'd be fewer bodies n' voices that I could save it and just talk to him He cannonballs on all my bills And I spent too much of my year just starin' at the dreams of livin' things I think my watch is broken

'Nd if I'm alone ('Nd if I'm alone) when it plays (when it plays) I get the privilege of my own face (my own face) 'Nd I'll save my hoorays for the mornin' bidet Hell, I'll just send it anyway

It's almost New Year's Day Champagne has found its wings They're cryin' out for one more heartache One round of musical lips is passing by I know it's okay I just hate to hear you say it once again Can't shake the question: "Will it ever be?" Babe, it's almost New Year's Day So here I'll stay

(sick kazoo solo)

I don't remember (don't remember) All the yesterdays (all the yester, all the yesterdays) What did I want?  Honey, what did I say? Give me a moment while I pick up my pace with the truck that's been comin' up the highway

It's New Year's Day Champagne has found its wings They're cryin' out for one more heartache One round of musical lips is passing by I know it's okay I just hate to hear you say it once again Can't shake the question: "Will it ever be?" Baby, it's New Year's Day And nothing's changed

Elephant Babies by Levi Robinheart [lyrics]

Elephant Babies By Levi Robinheart [lyrics]

Something strange to me must be something wrong Something that doesn’t care who for I can’t say anything anymore but everything in me was already said before

You’re a stranger daddy’s gotta getcha is daddy gonna getcha yet?

you don’t have any skin I feel big in this apparatus I been carrying this since I foundout how it happens I’m not scared, look at me don’t you be so sensetive don’t you look at her that way! don’t you love him anymore?

I don’t have the light in my eyes it’s just reflectin off the glasses You don’t seem so kinda weird until the particle passes

There’s no safety where you’re from it’s same and it’s different for me mad as hell to find a girl who doesn’t care about rights it’s all they expect from a clan I swear I could take you and they’d say it’s typical

cause you got too close I don’t get what I want enough I need daddy to say that I’m special cause he loves me, loves me, loves me, loves me just like a gun

how can this be the life? stayin in my hometown my whole life watchin the animals lie I know, that’s right Found her, I was sleepin on a rock this old rock that I never listen to but I love so dearly this old rock

She says I’m searchin for  acceptance and investment rejected to me when I was in development ‘n that I’m the  product of generations of misguided communication and the entitled adoration of an overzealous nation built upon intimidation and the lack of acknowlation of the feral sterilization by religious militarization and embration of what they don’t even know will hurt them

and I listened and I listened and all I could say was “I guess”

how can this be the life? theory wear for the thrill of anger throwin darts at a chalkboard ‘cause anythin’s better than dyin alone (I’m dyin alone)

is it okay to think this way about people you don’t give a shit about? is it alright to feel this way about someone you might give a shit about? is it okay to think this way about people you don’t give a shit about? is it alright to feel this way about someone you might give a shit about?

how bad can it get? how bad is this gonna get? is it too late for me to give up the ghost?

is there a way? is there any way? is there any way at all?

HSD! - Official Lyrics

HSD! - Official Lyrics

by Levi Robinheart

[V1]: Don’t knock it til you’ve tried it There’s only so much left I’d rather waste away than be a part of an effortless death You’ll break but now you’ve made it Do your taxes look as real as this? It don’t matter if you’re okay Just as long as your money and your country is safe I know you I know all about you and all of your pain I feel just like you Take my hand, my eyes are startin to ache (--o ache) (--o ache)

[V2]: Stop the screamin that’s in my ear Punish me until I’m okay You can’t get anythin good round here Come and say that shit to my face What an embarrassing episode! At least you’ve still got a mind It’s all the same babe you’ll be gone in a week but I can’t say the same for your kind Stop the screamin Say what do you think does my house look okay? Stop believin I’m not a man, I’m the mayor today (today) (today)

[V3]: I bought my life in a Walmart You sold your soul to the feds Look at what you’ve accomplished in so little time Why aren’t you scared by this? You spend your afternoons throwin fists with the news but you ate another cricket and you’ll be home soon Sit and stare at your friends look for pity again No! I am the only character to say it depends (it depends, it depends) And the people agree I see you think you’re crazy and it’s scarin me Standin on a mine know you’re watchin me Now there’s nothin I can do about it! nothin nothin nothin nothin

Sunflow’rs Again by Levi Robinheart [lyrics]

image

I woke up the Fosters They called out a curse I'm tired of weekdays My tongue's getting worse I like when it rains here I can't go outside I hope you still like me I'm scared in my mind

All the weather's out And every day feels like today Got no promises Attention is scrolling away Feel the rhythm hold me down I look outside and see

My friends are in safety They still make me laugh My surface is shaking He looks like a calf I hate when I sleep in I like when I sleep I don't wanna wait for you But at least I'll get to speak with you

Eyelids heavy now I only hear the things that you say Can't remember it But I can see the light in your face Feel the river hold me down I look outside and see There's sunflow'rs again There's sunflow'rs again

Not sure what I'm thinking It's harder to say Don't know what I'm feeling But you feel okay You're holding me forward I'll do what I can If I could move faster I'd stay where I am

Hold these doors There's more of 'em when you look away You're myself At least that's what I want you to say I feel you pull me down I look to you and see There's sunflow'rs again There's sunflow'rs again

I'll put you away for the moment Can't sleep away what you've given me now I know I'll cry in the mornin' Keep wonderin' if you were even there I'll put you away for the moment Can't sleep away what you've given me now I know I'll cry in the mornin' Keep wonderin' how you were even there 'Til the flowers Come back

Stop Believing by Levi Robinheart [lyrics]

image

(Your confidence interval is what’s going to tell you how confident you are in your results. So, first you, uh, subtract one from your sample size, this will give you the degrees of freedom from which, uhm, uh whi-which you’ll need in the next few steps. Uh, so, uh, take that number, divide it by two...)

I’m dead and my beak is filled with the dirt from the garden I’m not hungry, just fed to the brim I guess I just wanted to taste how I feel in your grip with the snow comin out of your eyes

I’m tired of kissin your hands every time that you whistle I know I’m a terrible girl I’m not gonna fix just because I know you want me to ever since I got home

I thought you’d get choked up, got your eyes shut, and you’re yellin in a cave I guess I’m just selfish, you’re the brightest car I’ve ever hit

[CHORUS: And I can tell from your skin that I’m lettin you down but I guess it’s just what I’m doin now it’d really help me out if you’d stop believin I’m better than this I got twelve cups and they’re all filled with lye so I’m watching you bleed with your eyes stop believin in me stop believin I’m better than this ]

I’m holed and my breath is still with your eyes from the steeple I can’t tell what you want me to say I’ll walk but I’d rather be runnin I’m not one to lie but I guess I’m too wrong to be true

I coulda kept quiet about all the stones that you fed like the loves that I held in my head there’s no one be- neath it’s just me so I’m sorry I’m not more profitable

I thought you’d get on top, but you’re not done, and I’m walking off the field You can call me selfish, you’re the brightest car I’ve ever hit

[CHORUS]

Pretty pictures all the other kids are swimmin alright she says she thinks we all think alike

Just say it’s alright and kick me off but don’t paint me away I may boil myself but don’t spit in my face

I’m holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m holed in, holed in holed in, holed in

I’m holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m holed in, holed in holed in, holed in

(I guess I’m just selfish, you’re the brightest car I’ve ever hit)

Oh, I can tell from your skin that I’m lettin you down but I guess it’s just what I’m doin now it’d really help me out if you’d stop believin I’m better than this I got twelve cups and they’re all filled with lye so I’m watching you bleed with your eyes stop believin in me stop believin I’m better than this

I’m not better than this Oh no, Stop believin in me Stop believin in me Stop believin in me Stop believin in me Stop believin, oh I guess I’m just selfish, you’re the brightest, holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m holdin holdin, holdin holdin, holdin holdin, holdin hold

(holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m holdin my breath and I’m)

Worth It by Levi Robinheart (lyrics)

image

I’m up ‘cause you’re in my room I’ll keep-a myself from sleepin’ There’s nobody else in you Is it worth it to keep on dreamin’? Is it worth it to close my hair or brush my teeth in the mornin’? Is it worth it to go upstairs? I dunno, but I sure am thirsty

You woke me up inside your mind and said there’s nothin’ here to see I felt your ankles when they sprained but all I understood was grief I came to you in search of Hobbit holes, some earlobes, and a dream But all you said was “here’s a mess, go stuff it up and fix me!”

My sparrows told me there would come a day you’d paint yourself in blue Don’t disrespect the way you talk to me the way I talk to you I hear MacBeth within your eyes I read MacDuff around my feet I guess we all prefer our lies so I say damn the whole thing!

I don’t wanna sleep with you I’m not gonna take your reasons I wish I could keep my cool I guess we could call it even

[CHORUS:

I’m gonna be big someday I don’t know what’s so important I cry ‘cause I want my way I jump ‘cause I can’t ignore it I wanna be everything I’m not gonna live forever I can’t hope to live with me If I’m just gonna give you everything ]

I stopped sweating through my pores because the Sun just doesn’t give The man I use to start a war is not the man I use to live Twenty miles an hour and silent as the kingdoms in the Alps We’re just the corpses of the future kin we used to care about

The nights I stare myself to death The hours spent murdering my nose The mi’r exposes me yet it’s the mi’r of that I hate the most Oh, how we’re stranded in the Mississippi kickin’ at a can I may be toothless but I just don’t see the gun in your hand

I just came to walk away It don’t matter if you want me Go on then and stuff your face I’d rather be dry and starving

[CHORUS]

I want to tear my face apart I want to squeeze you into space I want to step on all the stars and make this medicine my grave I want to set this house on fire and swallow dollar bills and change But most of all I want to kill your thoughts and prove I’m not a waste

I want to sail across the sea and drown in paper cuts and lime I want to scrub out all my teeth and make ‘em sharper than the sky I want to knock out all my friends I want my friends to poison me But I’m still yellin’ in my room so I say fuck this whole thing

I’m gonna be big someday I don’t know what’s so important I cry ‘cause I want my way I jump ‘cause I can’t ignore it I wanna be everything I’m not gonna let me fear you I can’t hope to live with me Please repeat yourself, I can’t hear you!

[CHORUS]

[miscellaneous cheering and whooping]

Is it worth it to save a life? Is it worth it if it’s my own? Is it worth it to feel alright if it means I can find my home? I just wanna leave something and everything hurts like hell If nothing is anything then anything could be anything

You’ll Be Here and I’ll Be With You by Levi Robinheart [lyrics]

image

Why don’t you take a break, dear from standin with your bones so dry? What good is all the pain if it only ends to let you ache?

Why don’t you take a break, dear from starin at your screens all day? I know it’s comin but if you’ll just stay your hands You’ll be here ‘nd I’ll be with you When the sirens reach our door Spare your spine, for as you sleep it grows more beautiful Your soul is far more restless when you steal it so I miss it, too, you know

come close In the morning you can feel the sun escape your breath or you could lose yourself tonight and wonder when you left And as it seems, there’s a ransom at the core of impossible routines

Why don’t you take a break, dear? Everybody goes some day I miss the way it felt to cryssal your eyes You’ll be here and I’ll be with you when the moment needs you most And I will hold your taken heart and weep so criminal You keep the pressure going ‘cause it’s what we do I know you miss it, too

stay close In the morning you can feel the sun within my chest And if you give me what you have I’ll give you what is left If we agree, I will miss you when we sleep but when we dream we will be queens again masters of the scene

Give you here, come to bed, rest your eyes and close your head as it rains, you’ll be here and I’ll be with you

So Cial by Levi Robinheart [lyrics]

image

If I were you I'd think my face is a pie Maybe it's the makeup Or the way that you die When I dance on the ceiling It makes me alive But if I were in focus I think you would fly Fly, fly, fly, bye

I've metal-bonded my tent To the clothes that I wear I don't think that it matters I don't think that you care I came to the circus 'Cause the people are here And they don't want my tears

[CHORUS So cial, so So see-ah the show So cial So come see-ah the show I'm so cial, so So see-ah the show I'm so cial So come see-ah the show ]

(yeh)

I poked your eyes in the summer You can burn me today Think that I see it comin' I'll hand you the flame "There's plenty o' room here" You gave me a smile But I'm afraid if I sit My bones'll turn to a pile A high and mighty pile

I'm so scared if I miss you That I'll miss you some more Think if I'm bein' honest That I'm bein' a bore You said you want Good vibes only today So I'll throw me away

[CHORUS]

A banquet in the evenin' I'll be there tonight Lately I'm your puppet And you're my pride Think if I share my soul I'll get a laugh outta you So I'll lie and say That's what I intended to do

'Cause no one believes me Don't think that I'm real Where do the jokes end And where is the peel The gag in my mouth, dear It sings me a song But it can't hold for long

[CHORUS x2]

Come see-ah the show Come see-ah the show Come see-ah the show Come see-ah the show

Squirrel by Levi Robinheart [lyrics]

Squirrel By Levi Robinheart [lyrics]

In the early morning gold mong the hours that kept her cold rose the honest heart Matilda rushing on through brush of old though the warning once she told there across it would unfold as the great once met the growing there Matilda met the road

The sight was neither here nor there the blanket comes to fall had every world been different would it be a sight at all?

Thought Matilda knows the ways the apes could keep her far away from her ends and from her children from those missing in her wake yes she knows the trusted cage how it sits in Packer’s place and the rolling buildings she will know  but not anticipate

Through the ragged vision lines came a flash and broken chime it was just too far a distance it was just too near a time as the condos flock on by Matilda searches with her eyes “If I can’t go with the back then with the front I will arrive”

Through the trees will harden through the winter’s pardon they won’t ask questions all the while though the fear will live and although they take and give it there is no hatred in the corrugated wild

Holiday is sore again, he’s s’posed to show at four came to build a presentation, little leaflets on the board He was flown by twenty floors, takin’ cracks that open doors, hopin’ Jesse there would ask him out and leave him wanting more

And Olive is his niece who wants to feel the bitter peace that invaded one Matilda on the road outside Caprice And her folks will make her crease while she’s learning legalese this machine is vending choc’late so she takes a bitter piece

In the modern garden the taller apes are guardin’ what you wouldn’t risk a mile All they know is love and thinkin’ worlds above when there is no wonder in the unsophistic wild

She troubled not to cry too much for Sellister zoolye as the keeper of her young, they couldn’t bear to know the sight Since the day has gone awry, she kissed ‘em all their heads goodbye and she traced her scent away to save the busy for the night

She promised not to die alone she means some other time after all of thousand colors she has yet to let outside Now she must avenge her life ‘fore dear Sellister arrives and she’ll drink up her water because she has to

As the rivers widen, the money rolls the tide in he keeps cuttin’ all the while A call will find a witness the young will state their business it’s gettin’ cold within the uncreated wild

Forging what the road surrenders, though she doesn’t ask for much as she’s taking in her living, she’s been giving out her blood No one calls, unless it’s urgent no one holds, none would try she’s been runnin’ for the mornin’, for the landlord soon arrives

Every once in two or three she’ll venture off into the trees, passing by the rocky billboards, searching for an old machine But all she finds are painted lines and decoration traffic signs if she could count the grass between her toes, she’d love ‘em all the time

Though her sight may widen, though her Fates are fightin’, she can’t stop it all the while But she’s got hearts to burn and a whole turntable turnin’ there is no rest from the unsophistic child

The Arctic makes a woodland break, for so it goes for all If all the young were different would there be a sound at all?
