I Can Be Vicious Too
words and music by Hannah Lee Thompson and Joseph Hixon Terrell
There’s a method to your madness
Guides to insanity
Maps of your temperament
Correctional chemistry
There’s a science behind your magic
Algorithyms to success
Secret obligations
You’ve always kept to yourself
Chorus:
You’re not the epitome of chivalry
But I can be vicious too
You’re not the only one that I can love
But right now I’m looking at you
I’m no beauty queen riding limosines
Because I’ve got better things to do
There’s a pattern t o your morals
You pick and you chose
When to apply them
So that you never lose
But there’s no method to your misery
It has a mind of its own
There’s no jaded memory
That left you out on your own
Chorus 2x

Curbside Rivers, Pothole Lakes
Words and Music by Hannah Lee Thompson
All I can see is the pouring rain
Over curbside rivers and pothole lakes
Taking over my native street
Clogging my drain and soaking my feet
All I can hear is the steady drip
Of my window imitating my sink
My floor is at its highest tide
There’s more water in here than there is outside
Chorus
I played by the odds
They got beat, I got lost
In curbside rivers and pothole lakes
All I know is the boy crying wolf
As he tries to show that hes foolproof
But his melody will be earased
By one that’s going to resonate
All my bones are out of line
My neck, my back, my creaking spine
Nothing I hear is making sense
I’m in a state of mind that won’t relent
Chorus

Speed Demon
Words and Music by Hannah Thompson and Joseph Terrell
There’s an unnatural haze
That crowded my brain
And it’s taken you father away
There’s artificial light
As I open my eyes
I’m watching your mistakes
Chorus:
I’m no speed demon
I can’t keep up
I’m no speed demon
We’re out of luck
There’s a probable cause
If you break any laws
You’re not gonna look back
Cause you run so fast
And you’re too hard to catch
And I am falling back
Chorus
We got a good break
In the seventh grade
When you walked into my class
Accident prone
Vacations alone
While we lost our baby fat
Chorus x2

Stabs in the Dark
Words and music by Hannah Lee Thompson and Joseph Hixon Terrell.
Dreaming lucid, I’m halfway to reality
I’m just sitting around hoping
My dreams can follow me
My hands are heavy, my hands are numb and dull
I’m just sitting around hoping
They’ll catch me when I fall
Chorus:
I’ve been taking stabs in the dark
I went swimming with the sharks
All in the comfort of my own head
I walked leopards on a leash
I rode whales on to the beach
All in the comfort of my own bed
I’m not going anywhere relevant
At least not yet
Given all that you’ve said
Look to the east and to the west
Sooner or later
Everyone you see will be dead
Chorus
I am not ungrateful, I don’t want to sound ungrateful (x2)
But if you ask me where I’ll be in ten years
I’d say anywhere that isn’t here
Because there is no better way to waste my mind
Then to sit here, killing out time
I don’t want to sound ungrateful, because I am not ungrateful (x2)
Slowly the coins drain from the bank
Slowly the water
Empties out of the tank
I’ve got precious few words left to say
Every time I spreak
I watch them float away
Chorus

You Just Can’t Revive
Words and Music by Hannah Lee Thompson and Joseph Hixon Terrell
Sometimes you grimace when you grin
Like I don’t know the shape your in
And there’s nothing I can do to make it better
Until you let me inside
The corners of your mind
And I begin to feel a little bit better
Chorus:
A lucky life’s an eye for an eye
The bad ones you just can’t revive
But I found comfort cause I know
You’ll come with me when I go
someplace I won’t return from
Home is where my heart is
The alleyways I darted
Things I can’t take part in anymore
It’s such a high cost of living
For a lowlife like myself
All the bottom feeders are the last ones on the shelf
But Brooklyn is too beautiful to spend all day in bed
Get out of the covers and shake
The cobwebs off your head
Chorus
Autumn leaves have fallen
It’s clear that the fall’s been done in
Rest yourself before you come extinct
When daylight is over
Before the afternoon begins
Don’t you think
Chorus
But I found comfort cause I know
You’ll come with me when I go
someplace I won’t return from

The Johannas Alabama
At first, they were just hannah and joe. It was fall 2009. Joe wore his bell bottoms everyday, and hannah cried each week during one tree hill. Blame it on their youth. They met that winter. Bonding ensued over 3 course meals served by the fantastic Anna Terrell and a close call with angry hooligans who chased them home. It was only a matter of time before joe and hannah became The Johannas. ... more
