Yay, I don't know why I get so happy when I upload songs twice, but it is just funny to me XD XD !!!

Also, I'm done with "Everywhere And His Nasty Parlour Tricks" and will be uploading the songs off "Building Nothing Out Of Something" next...

Well I ain't sure but I been told
He's baking cakes inside our souls stayed awake took a nap got myself my
bottles back
I'm breaking them out in the street
Walkin' 'round in my bare feet
I do not need you to tell me that I am not a cat
I cause a ride we caught some air
He's never gonna cut his hair
It takes more time to make a fake we night swam down in the lake washed the
dirt off our intentions prattle on 'bout bad inventions
I came as ice
I came as a whore
I came as advice that came too short
I came as gold
I came as crap
I came clean and I came as a rat
It takes a long time but God dies too
But not before he'll stick it to you
Well I ain't sure but I been told
You never die and you never grow old
I came as call
I came as flat
I came too soon so I came back
I came as flowers
I came as nice
I came as dirt and I came as it's price
It takes a long time but God dies too
But not before he'll stick it to you
I don't know but I been told you never die and you never grow old

  • Are you sure it's not "Advice that came to shore."?

    That's what I've heard since I bought the album years ago.

  • @BeLiterary your most probably right, I just copy and paste from azlyrics.com

  • AWWWW YEEAAAAAHHHH

  • this guy came a lot.

  • @BeLiterary advice that came too short makes a lot more sense....

  • Wait did this album come before Moon and Antarctica? Because this is on there too.

  • *too

  • advice that came to sure

  • @BeLiterary

    It might just be a double-meaning, but I always thought it was "advice that came TOO SURE," which would basically make it a statement about how everyone thinks their way is the right way and how the young and innocent of each generation are led astray by their equally-confused "leaders" (who were once babies too) who give advice that's often presumptuous and no better than a guess.

    I ain't sure, but that's what I heard....

    hahaha
