These mechanisms won't let me sleep Skating the surface but they're underneath They'll pull you under if you dare to dream The endless harvest of all we've done and seen Husk! Husk! You're less than dust Husk! Husk! We'll re-establish; we'll do what we must Husk! Husk! You're less than dust Husk! husk! We'll re-establish; we'll do what we must These mechanisms won't let me sleep They're quiet whispers but they're more than skin deep They'll pull you under if you dare to dream Pick up your JADE and let's end this regime Husk! Husk! You're less than dust Husk! Husk! We'll re-establish; we'll do what we must These mechanisms won't let me sleep Skating the surface but they're underneath They'll pull you under if you dare to dream The endless harvest of all we've done and seen Husk!

What am I after Smiles and laughter Happily after ever I couldn’t pass for a regular guy; So weird it is How come we argue While I love you What are we supposed to do Everything’s breaking all the time So weird it is Oh, Jade Why don’t you sing with me Oh Jade Why can’t you stop fixing things She’s always so focused on the time Like a mechanic of the mind Jade Why don’t you sing with me I wanna go back To the bar we met Sing “Summer Nights” On the karaoke set I never liked Grease But I liked you so easily Let’s talk about How you used to hold me Went out of town And you never told me Yelling for help But you can’t hear this So weird it is Oh Jade What do we say ‘Cause I can’t wait No I can’t wait FOR YOU TO HYDRATE

Street lights barely show the garbage littered parking lot Fluorescents flicker and fry I’m at the counter wearing stupid vapid plastic smile Can’t change expression if I tried I serve the kind of food that mother never makes at home to folks who can’t sleep at night Where do you come from? Where you going? I may never know. You’re gone like turning off a light. Built in twenty nine-teen Serving in this canteen Fifty years of bore-dom I’m a jaded machine! At two fifteen the junkie comes in for his cup of joe. He’s gonna OD by June Drunk college freshmen leave the restroom like a sewage hole Their tragic lives can’t end too soon. I’m a jaded machine Serving prefab cuisine To the messed up humans With fewer feelings than me I’m a jaded machine. With a brain of styrene You gave me self a-ware-ness But never said what that means My batteries are spent from endless years of serving you My alloy armor is destroyed I’m overworked, I can’t get out, there’s no escape for me I want to jump into the void. It’s a worn out routine taking care of hygeine To be the plastic robot Who keeps your countertops clean Welcome to the automat, how may I serve you?

listen to the sound of the rain on the green green grass it's a light beating on the sunlight, gone much too fast and the springtime waits for the rain to pass drooping lilies, heavy sunsets, nothing lasts we're talking 'bout sound we're talking 'bout fun we're talking 'bout sunlight and we've only begun we're talking 'bout sound we're talking 'bout fun we're talking 'bout sunlight and we've only begun
