about

Chubby was a beagle who my parents got before I was born but he lived until I was 13. This recreates a dream I had where Chubby was teaching me some lessons I reckon.

lyrics

Chubby he barks at me he says," What's with all these boxes? The neighbors are starting to worry bout all these corpses piled up around here.
They're looking out the window, They're looking at you.
Tell me boy, tell what's the truth?"

I say, " I die each day and each day is a box
they're all numbered and neat and ain't going back to lift up the lids.
Cause I die a thousand times in this life each corpse dead a different way,
each expression worst than the last."

"And all these corpses and me, we're just song waiters. Waiting on the
songs, not writing too much these days.
We're waiting on the wind to blow one in
and sing us back to life, sing us back to life again."

Oh how I like to run
Feet push the ground so fast
how I put my head in that sand
wait for all these things to pass

But I feel the magnet pull me
pull me out into the light
Pull me back to my life
where there's no place to hide

Chubby still barks at me he says," What's with all your lies?
The neighbors have given up on you reall ain't no surprise.
I think it's all over for you now. But your tears.
What gives boy? I've been trying to help you out
barking this shit in your ears for years."

So I leave those corpses back there
just waiting on their songs
I figure they must have more time than me
Chubby and me we got to move along
get out running again
get our fetching again
But I leave the boxes open in case the corpses want to crawl back in.


Oh How I like to run
Feet push the ground so fast
Oh how I put my head in the sand
Wait for all these things to pass

But I feel that magnet pull me
pull me out into the light
pull me back to my life
where there is no place to hide
