I belong to you
I left my heart at the lost and found
it's safe and sound
because no one needs it
it once belonged to you
but now we're through
so I thought I'd leave it
but I know it won't be claimed
'cause it's got your name
written down inside it
I tried to free your memory
but it just won't be
there's no place to hide it
because
I belong to you
I belong to you
navytown
you were born in navytown
where the hammer goes up
only to come back down
the wheels turn around and around
in navytown
you were born where your destiny
was to be whatever everybody
said you would be
the only goal is to be safe and sound
in navytown
in navytown
you make your plans
to get out on the highway
just as fast as you can
you'll find your body and soul
at the lost and found
in navytown

Deshutes river song
when I die
and I will someday
my life will somehow
drift away
and hopefully I'll
go somewhere else
where I can kind of
stay myself
but if I don't
may my soul be delivered
to the rocky banks
of the Deshutes River
shattered hearts
and working clothes
my whole life's
been made of those
but one fine day
I'll be released
and finally find
a heart at peace
this life's so cold
I can't help but shiver
but I don't feel alone
by the Deshutes River
you know that old song
"life is but a dream"
when I no longer belong
send my memory downstream
when I leave
this worldly home
and fade into
the great unknown
don't bury me
underground
sing me to sleep
with the water's sound
and I will rise
as a true believer
as my spirit flies
over the Deshutes River
this professional world
I'm checking out
I'm leaving town
I'm going without
I'm standing my ground
I'm walking away
I'm learning to fly
I'm doing okay
here's the reason why
I'm saying goodbye
to this professional world
this professional world
this professional world
where it's
okay to lie
okay to steal
okay to try
whatever you feel
to all those hacks
standing in the way
stab 'em in the back
it's okay
it's okay
no shock or surprise
I'm closing my eyes
to this professional world
this professional world
this professional world
I've spent too much time here
I almost lost my mind here
just what I hoped to find here
ain't for me
so as you can see
What's packing my bags
I'm clearing my desk
this hob is a drag
the whole place is a mess
I'm dressed for success
I'm losing my blues
it's anyone's guess
what path I choose
I'm done paying dues
I ain't gonna lose
to this professional world
this professional world
this professional world

passwords
when I leave this world
I'm gonna forget all my passwords
my online life will be silent
my real life as well
so I won't have to remember
all those fuckin' passwords
I will finally have the freedom
be it heaven or be it hell
I will only have to worry about myself
