Don’t move
Don’t talk out of time
Don’t think
Don’t worry
Everything’s just fine
Just fine
Don’t grab
Don’t clutch
Don’t hope for too much
Don’t breathe
Don’t achieve
Or grieve without leave
Don’t check
Just balance on the fence
Don’t answer
Don’t ask
Don’t try and make sense
Don’t whisper
Don’t talk
Don’t run if you can walk
Don’t cheat, compete
Don’t miss the one beat
Don’t travel by train
Don’t eat
Don’t spill
Don’t piss in the drain
Don’t make a will
Don’t fill out any forms
Don’t compensate
Don’t cower
Don’t crawl
Don’t come around late
Don’t hover at the gate
Don’t take it on board
Don’t fall on your sword
Just play another chord
If you feel you’re getting bored
I feel numb
I feel numb
Too much is not enough
I feel numb
Don’t change your brand, Gimme what you got
Don’t listen to the band
Don’t gape, Gimme what I don’t get
Don’t ape
Don’t change your shape, Gimme some more
Have another grape
Too much is not enough
I feel numb
I feel numb
Gimme some more
A piece of me, baby
I feel numb
Don’t plead
Don’t bridle
Don’t shackle
Don’t grind, Gimme some more
Don’t curve
Don’t swerve I feel numb
Lie, die, serve, Gimme some more
Don’t theorize, realise, polarise I feel numb
Chance, dance,dismiss, apologise, Gimme what you got
Gimme what I don’t get
Gimme what you got
Too much is not enough
Don’t spy I feel numb
Don’t lie
Don’t try
Imply
Detain
Explain
Start again I feel numb
I feel numb

I feel numbthis is one of my fave lyrics I ever wrote
also, writing the bridge section to this was super-cool, me and TC shouting chords at each other on-the-go
my friend Christophe is a very talented singer, and songwriter, and drummer, and sound engineerer, and everythinger
and he’s a good-looking chap to boot
YOU NEED THESE SONGS IN YOUR LIFE. THEY ARE BRILLIANT.
also I play bass on one of them
The more people speak honestly and express themselves freely, the more the tension in their chests, throats and lips subsides and relaxes.
the quote doesn’t sum up the article by any means, but both are interesting!Something I Can Feel
this is going to be a summer anthem, thanks Chris for showing me this
interpret as you will. there’s some good wisdom right here
See You Tonight Prank
Back in 2002-03, I used to tour with Andy Friedman — ironically, we called it the “Make A Living Tour,” hahaha. Not only did we not have a GPS, but neither of us could ever be bothered to print out Mapquest directions. So we’d essentially roll into San Fran or Louisville or Madison and just drive around looking for the venue. When we had time, it was amusing. When we didn’t, it was intolerable (though not enough for us to actually do anything about for tomorrow or the next day).
One of my favorite jokes (when we had time, and when I was driving): 1. pull over 2. andy rolls his window down & asks directions from a stranger 3. while the stranger is giving directions, just drive away.
Andy absolutely hated it every single time — “wait, no wait wait! FUUCCCK!” — but he always laughed his ass off, too.
we watched a video on graphs in today’s lecture.
thought it would be boring. turns out it was AWESOME
and so informative
Frank Ocean is my new hero
except, I dunno if he should be
but anyways, this is a great track
I believe Jehovah Jireh
I believe there’s heaven, I believe in war
I believe a woman’s temple
Gives her the right to choose but baby don’t abort
I believe that marriage isn’t
Between a man and woman but between love and love
And I believe you when you say that you’ve lost all faith
But you must believe in something, something, something
You gotta believe in something, something, something
I still believe in man
A wise one asked me why
Cause I just don’t believe we’re wicked
I know that we sin but I do believe we try
We all try, the girls try, the boys try
Women try, men try, you and I try, try, we all try
I don’t believe in time travel
I don’t believe our nation’s flag is on the moon
I don’t believe our lives are simple
And I don’t believe they’re short, this is interlude
I don’t believe my hands are cleanly
Can’t believe that you would let me touch your heart
She didn’t believe me when I said that I lost my faith
You must believe in something, something, something
You gotta believe in something, something, something
Try to believe (just try)
I do believe I do believe
