Dinosaur Jr. Album

It's floating through the abyss.
Under the brig, my head swings down.
Beware her wrath, the image gone.
The shell is crumbling, fix my frown.

This spell would be clear in non-tradition,
And stepping on these pieces of pain and smirk.
And rape goes through to sin my eyes,
And shapes know where the heartache will lurk.

Forget the swan, a stone swims near.
A stone has come, if I could cheer.
Forget the swan, forget the swan.

Drifting among this rubble,
I guess the waiting wished I would.
I found a box, untethered and true,
Possession it understood.

Forget the swan, a stone swims near.
A stone has come, if I could cheer.
Forget the swan, forget the swan.

How I tried to warn my neighbor, but the corn was much too high.
In confusion up and threw him, woke up every day,
But it's not too late, brother, I'll still say you were mine.

Forget the swan, a stone swims near.
A stone has come, if I could cheer.
Forget the swan, forget the swan.

Forget the swan, the dreams are gone.
The pain goes on, they fly at dawn.
Forget the swan, forget the swan.
Forget the swan, forget the swan.

Scraped along the sidewalk, looking for a face.
Had to get out of my room for a bit,
Tension is in town and I'm ready to quit.

Can't fall out of this hole, it's just like cats in a bowl.
And I can't climb out of this hole, it's just like cats in a bowl.

See the same old hares running to the same old holes.
Price of licorice has doubled -- teetering, would it finally fall?

Can't fall out of this hole, it's just like cats in a bowl.
And I can't climb out of this hole, it's just like cats in a bowl.

Ever-changing scenery drifting this town.
Even if I leave, someone just like me popped out of the ground.

Loose thoughts go, he slits his hand.
They'll be a problem, well, ride it.
Gathering, giggling, staggering, hoping,
People have been left from last night.

Scraped along the sidewalk, looking for a face.
Had to get out of my room for a bit,
Tension is in town and I'm ready to quit.

Can't pull out of this hole, it's just like cats in a bowl.
And I can't climb out of this hole, it's just like cats in a bowl.

See the same old hares running to the same old holes.
Price of licorice has doubled -- teetering, would it finally fall?

Can't climb out of this hole, it's just like cats in a bowl.
And I can't climb out of this hole, it's just like cats in a, just like cats in a bowl.

Nowhere to run, every town's the same.
So keep on running along, hope the sidewalk won't break for me.

Embarrassed to be alive,
Sit with my life open wide.
Your stare is forcing my face open.
A leper crumbling, never joking.
Who should I believe?

Safest to wallow in my own esteem.
Afraid, stick my neck out,
Knowing the day has drawn.

I'm a leper.
Scared beyond this feeling, I dare to escape.
A leper.
Doomed to this, my life is chosen to rape.

Embarrassed to be alive,
Sit with my life open wide.
Your stare is forcing my face open.
A leper crumbling, never joking.

I'm a leper.
Scared beyond this feeling, I dare to escape.
A leper.
Doomed to this, my life is chosen to rape.

I'm a leper, leper, leper.

The rain has washed my dog with fear.
A question people think, I call a friend,
And the next wave is valentine.

See yourself call, no big deal,
Ever since that's not a fear.
Just wishing the lamp would shine,
And beam me at it, give me some fuel.
Find a way to clog it up alone.
Terrified, the way you stand,
Feeling natural behind the phone.

Rain has fallen, the tree does cry.
And [mumbling...]
And the toads are running free.
And [mumbling...]
It's no fun and that's what stinks,
Bought a carrot and still can't see.
You know I've been wating for six years,
For a ray of hope, leaves me afloat,
Then I could believe in sunshine.
In the winter time, mountains glow.

There's always so much to adore.
There's a little scenic picture on my skull.
See the second building, imagine where'd you go.
All I wanna know, baby.

Does it float? (x6)
Does it float? (x4)
Why does it float?
Does it float?

[No lyrics]

I feel your eyes upon me
How should I act today
To feel so unsure always
Give up or now keep on this way

The silence taps my elbow
It's good, least that's what she said

I could run but I stand and greet it
Boredom won't starve as long as I feed it
The world drips down like gravy
The thoughts of love so hazy
Everyone's ideal of fun

Repulsion

Try to wake up, try to break it open
It's not quite the right feeling
I'll just keep on hoping

The girls, they smile and say hello
The darkness drags me back home
It's hard to face it
Still waiting, still alone

The world drips down like gravy
The thoughts of love so hazy
Everyone's ideal of fun
Repulsion

Try to wake up, try to break it open
It's not quite the right feeling
I'll just keep on hoping

The world drips down like gravy
The thoughts of love so hazy
Everyone's ideal of fun
Repulsion
Repulsion
Repulsion

I see you every once in a while
Forget where I was standing stood
Eyes glazed with apprehension
Could it ever have been that good

The virgin's escaping
Will is fading
Another couple locks ones attention
How did I believe this fool
Non-stop degradation waiting until
Nothing can ever be the same

The virgin's escaping
Will is fading
Everyone tries their hand at love
It's just up to hope that all in amour
Everyone in which you've found
Best known by it's ? cure

I see you every once in a while
Forget where I was standing stood
Eyes glazed with apprehension
Could it ever have been that good

Will is fading

I wanna help you.
I sense you're riding pretty low.
I got the feeling when your hair hits the ceiling,
Something, babe, you oughta know...

I won't cry if you walk by,
But if we both kind of stumble,
Maybe I'll say 'hi',
That's my best, I never try that much,
'Cause I'm scared of feeling that healing touch.

You gotta get through my maze and pass every test,
'Cause I'm choosin' one love tattooed across my chest.

Know the time has come,
I ain't gonna fester no more.
Let the world be free of my disease.
I never knew a rubber doll would be so hard to please.

Now I'm preachin' out,
One last burst before I retract.
No one will know 'til I finally let go
Of the one thing I ain't never going to give back.

I want to help you.
Baby, can't you see you're better than my pillow,
'Cause you don't stain so easily.
You know it's hard just to finally let go,
And leave all the pictures behind.
Hope I brought you some happiness.
I believe I just had to get on,
'Cause just wasn't a world I wished to need to find.

Mining for a sacred lode
Drilling into untouched stone
The world has done enough to me
The horror now I'll never see

Got to fight off grizzly bears
Got to eat, so I grab a few hares
Got to struggle to survive
That's the reason I'm alive

I know I left you hurting
Disappeared with no goodbyes
But I heard the snowcats calling
I'm alright, baby please don't cry
If the guy is right for you
he doesn't live on bear cat stew
I'll live without you alright
I figured you was not sleeping at night

Got to fight off grizzly bears
Got to eat, so I grab a few hares
Got to struggle to survive
That's the reason I'm alive

The animals were my first real friends
They'll protect me 'til the end
Where the people lived was filled of lies
And the truth has no disguise

I know I left you hurting
Disappeared with no goodbyes
But I heard the snowcats calling
I'm alright, baby please don't cry
If the guy is right for you
he doesn't live on bear cat stew
I'll live without you alright
I figured you was not sleeping at night

I'm a mountain man
Rip that fucker right off, I feel fine
This is a mountain man

'Cause I'm a mountain man

Turning towards a time so free
Justice has finally escaped me
The dripping words of yesterday
Set my feeble mind astray

I yearn to see
The glow of her eyes as I appear
A sigh of satisfaction
Could be the sweetest sound
The staircase has one too many steps
I've already started back down
Come on

I love the caterpillars
Munching on the leaves
Pitter patter
Makes me forget my disease
Bugs have feelers just like me
And I'm feelin' oh so lonely

Disturbed in every sense of grace
The lady wouldn't give me a taste
Of the joy that means that much
It lives within her touch

Why won't you be my friend
I would love to hold you tonight
Even if we just pretend
Why won't you be my friend
Why

Why won't you be my friend
I would love to hold you tonight
Even if we just pretend
Why won't you be my friend
Be my friend

I'd love to meet the one
Who broke my heart
I know she'd melt me with her dance
Her subtle colors, her sweet smile
But it's a shame
She'll never get that chance

I sit queasy, jittered, uneasy.
The toll that looms, the loss I dread.
I buckle when my judge clutches,
Questioning my treatment of an ego underfed.
Bulbs of passion, bulbs of passion.

Place it here on the bureau,
Let the interests rip apart the understood.
No one's satisfied with merely a cut,
So they sabotage their own livelihood.

The feeble structure is teetering, but intact.
The parts all function but the fuse is lit.
Teeth scrape on the last remaining fossil.
I wanna crumble but instead I slit.

And hold it in my hand, but they're sweating.
Trained for now, but soon forget.
The tears are flowing from the love in her eyes,
The hated feeling gonna eat me alive.
Bulbs of passion, bulbs of passion.
Bulbs of passion, bulbs of passion.
