At the Mouth of the Mountains
by Esos Picos
Side A
1. Bug
I want to end thyself
Don't want nobody else
To have the right or gun
And if you're still around
I'll meet you underground
Licking bugs for fun
What does this all mean?
What does any of this mean?
Why does he look at me?
Like such a creep
He’s gone now
It's gone now
I'm my father’s worst dreamt disease
I'm my mother’s heart enemy
Please leave before you get to know me
I'm not such a bad guy
2. Rooming Center
Calling from a lonely rooming center
That had me shaking at the knees
A pain that's always growing
I never thought I'd see you leave
I know just what you're thinkin’
When you kiss the empty air
You’ll build a brand-new person
Shake the smoke out of your hair
Darling, we've come as far as its worth going
The time has come to find new lights
Alien’s worth knowing
And for the final time tonight
You’ll build a brand-new person
Give him a happy, wholesome wife
Her kind excites with passion
The brightness shines out from her eyes

3. Real Desserts
​
Listen, I am doing the best that I can
The youth in me, slipping underneath
The soles of other people’s plans
You would run from all I hold deep inside
But lovingly
They come visit me
I'm indebted to their kind
For all time
Longing for a warm embrace
Piece of cake
In outer space
Just a taste
Will melt your face
It isn't me
That was meant to be
the lion at your feet
And when I say
that it's ok
I am lying through my teeth
Cause all I do
Is think of you
Ain’t it cruel
If I could ride
such a pretty sigh
I would try
And I would die
Longing for a warm embrace
Piece of cake
In outer space
Just a taste
Will melt your face
Stop
Beware
Of those waking nightmares
Watch for snakes
And shakes
The bombs falling out of the air
The air

4. At the Mouth of the Mountains
(Instrumental)
5. Gold
Home again
I remember just how it went
The holes in her head
Made you fear your own accidents
Well…
Oh, how the pain in you grows
When hope, is hiding under those soles
Alone again
Better off without those friends
Who get upset
From a simple, “Hi, how you've been?”
And oh, how the stain in you grows
And oh, how I want you to know
That now it’s good
Now it's gold
Now you're sweet
Now you belong to me
Surround yourself
With the people you're mad about
Expand your house
With the people you can't live without and
Oh, how I need you to know
These bad feelings, will eventually go
And now it’s good
Now it's gold
Now you're sweet
Now you belong to me
For now it’s good
For now it's gold
For now you're sweet
For now you belong to me

6. Whatever You Want
(Instrumental)
7. Aband-O-Mates
I love you Lex so much and you don't even know it
Trying to improve the way you look back at me
Get to a stage where I can improve my old habits
To a place I can live my own life, my own way
It's difficult to be someone you're not and stay quiet
This is a problem I face more and more every time
Every time I spend another grueling eight hours
Strange place where they reward you for being dumb
So who am I?
Who do you wanna be when they take it away?
And who can I? Who can I turn to in the darkest of days?
It's never gonna slow down like you want and you know it
So be sure to enjoy it before it’s all gone
The sweetest victories when the melody was won
So in love with the way that you are and don't know it
So who am I?
Who do you wanna be when they take it away?
And who can I? Who can I turn to in the darkest of days?
