Disasterless
-written by Jeremy Gloff

THE STORY:
A spunky number rife with internal and external observation.
THE LYRICS:
If there is a higher power
Please come and intervene
Half the world has rented a movie
And it seems so pointless to me
The lives of everyone I know
Turns into craziness
And all I want is the life I lead
To be disasterless...I thought I loved butterflies
But now they crash inside me
Watch me get all twisted
Just 'cause we're in the same room
Somewhere between birth and death
We see how delicate we are
The damage of my saddest times
Has not left me so far...
So me I'm still searching.I know some people whose lives
Are far removed from their suggestions
And those whose search for answers stopped
When they quit asking questions
And then there's those
They're gonna change the world
But they're to lazy too change their shoes
Well when your attitude and your feet both stink
The odds are not with you...
And me I'm still searching.I'm striving for the life I lead
To be disasterless
Away from people who treat themselves like shit
And fake their happiness
So in eighty years when I see you
Will your stony face be gone?
Don't you ever wonder just how long
The haunting will go on...
And me I'm still searching.(Won't something come down and save me)
Wanna be stationary... I'm getting tiredI'm gonna end this song
A couple friends just came by
I'm not sure how to end the chaos
But I sure as hell am gonna try.
