Gish

I Am One

I am one as you are three
Try to find a messiah in your trinity
Your city to burn
Your city to burn
Try to look for something
Your city to burn; you'll burn
Am I as I seem? Oh no
Don't slow down

Time is right for a guiding light
Try to turn to reasons in your inner life
Your city to burn
Your city to burn
Try to look for something
Your city to burn; you'll burn

Said you're the only one who
Said I am one
Said now you're the one who
Said I am one

Up

Siva

That's when I bend loose my head
Throwing straight a spark instead
Yellow streak down in my hair
Dig it in the world I heal

Way down deep and in my heart
Lies a soul that's torn apart
Tell me, tell me what you're after
I just want to get there faster

I don't live - I invade
I don't give - I unveil
Don't want to live in your misery
I don't live - I invade

Sprinkle all my kisses on your head
Stars follow wishes fill your bed
She said, "I'm dead"

All this pain smothers me
Like a bomb that you can't see
Tell me, tell me what you're after
I just want to get there faster

I don't live - I invade
I don't give - I unveil
I don't live

Up

Rhinoceros

Planned a show
Treasoned my roots
Ice cream snow
See you in June

Could have known
I would relive
Should have known
I would come see you

Your way she knows
And she knows she knows she knows

Colors show
After long
I should go
See you in June

Open your eyes - to these must I lie?

Up

Bury Me

Real love
Real love

I'll take your kisses, take your heart
Everything if it hurts

I love my sister so (turn on shine)
She don't smother me (turn on shine, on shine)
I played the spades I know (on shine)
I'm a Jack of all trades
Would you bury me?

Once you see her
One inside (hide, hide)
Some of the things you just can't hide

If you see her
Tell me why hurry, hurry
Why won't she come outside?

She will bury me

Up

Crush

You wrap your arms around
A feeling that surrounds
Like liquid peppermint
Just taste the drinks that she served

And this feeling shimmers down your spine
Love comes in colors I can't deny
All that matters is love, love, your love

You're sleeping in your bed
Just rest your weary head
Maybe you shouldn't care
Throw away those dreams and dare

And I wonder if it matters to me
Love comes in colors I can't deny
All that shimmers is love, love, your love
Your love

Up

Suffer

All that you suffer is all that you are
All that you smother is all that you are
And you're saying you're seeing, you're seeing who you are
What takes meaning is cleaning the meaning of who you are

All may say
I will dream
All may say

All of your struggles beneath your disguise
Drink from the reasons that hold you alive
'Til we're safe from the wounds of desire and pain
You must rise from the mounds of desire and change

Too late to discover peace of mind
Too late to recover me

All you see and all you breathe and all you cease to be
Taken down your only son and what he means to me
Your dream will be
To dream with me

Will you wait? Yes I will, I will wait for you
To cleanse your life takes more than time
Take what you want
Take all of it

Too late to discover peace of mind
Too late to recover

Up

Snail

All your seven dreams
Look close, son, and you'll believe
As your things come undone
See you are the only one

Flower, seize the hour I did
I wait
Waiting, waiting for your wake
I'll wait

When you wake up you're all weak
Throwing your life away
Someday, sorry coming home
Sorry snail
What you wait for

Flower, the pain will wash away, away
When the sun shines
Climbs through your window into your bed

When you wake up you're all weak
Throwing your life away
Someday, sorry coming home
Sorry snail
Down in my heart

Flower save the hours
Flower away

What you wait for
Flower chase the sunshine
Flower

Tristessa

Pledged your faith
My heart embraced
Struggle to renew

Blurry mind
So hypnotized
Fast enough who

Wonder where you are
Tristessa

Soul takes soul
As eye take eye
I will wait for you

What you believe
You'll wish to receive
I won't believe in you

Hang on to your life
Tristessa

I love you true
Surely I do
Surely I do

Do you ever wake up and find yourself alone?
Do you ever wake up far from home?
What you believe
You'll wish to receive
I won't believe in you
Tristessa

Window Paine

Window Paine
Around my heart
Shadow streak
Around my heart

Do what you got to do
And say what you got to say
Do what you got to do
Yes, start today
Start today

Wind blow shame
Around my heart
Shadow scream
Around my heart

What are you coming to
Stripped down to the bone?
Laughing, living
On your own
All alone

Do what you got to do
And say what you got to say
Do what you got to do
Yes, start today
Start today

Daydream

My daydream seems as one inside of me
Though it seems hard to reach through this life
Your blue and hopeless life

My daydream screams bitter 'til the end
The love I share -true- selfish to the heart
My heart, my sacred heart

My daydream dream
My day dream dream

I'm going crazy
I'm going crazy
I don't want feelings
Your feelings

I have gone crazy
Motherfuckin' crazy
I have gone

Siamese Dream

Cherub Rock

Freak out
And give in
Doesn't matter what you believe in
Stay cool
And be somebody's fool this year
'cause they know
Who is righteous, what is bold
So I'm told

Who wants honey
As long as there's some money
Who wants that honey?

Hipsters unite
Come align for the big fight to rock for you
But beware
All those angels with their wings glued on
'cause deep down
We are frightened and we're scared
If you don't stare

Who wants honey
As long as there's some money
Who wants that honey?

Let me out

Tell me all of your secrets
Cannot help but believe this is true
Tell me all of your secrets
I know, I know, I know
Should have listened when I was told

Who wants honey
As long as there is some money
Who wants that honey?

Let me out

Up

Quiet

Quiet
I am sleeping
In here
We need a little hope

For years
I've been sleeping
Helpless
Couldn't tell a soul

Be ashamed
Of the mess you've made
My eyes never forget, you see
Behind me

Silent
Metal mercies
Castrate
Boys to the bone

Jesus
Are you listening?
Up there
To anyone at all

We are the fossils
The relics of our time
We mutilate the meanings
So they're easy to deny

Be ashamed
Of the mess you've made
My eyes never forget, you see
Behind me

Quiet
I am sleeping
Quiet
I am sleeping
Quiet
I don't trust you
I can't hear you

Be ashamed
Of the mess you've made
My eyes never forget, you see
Behind me

Behind me
The grace of falling snow
Cover up everything you know
Come save me from the awful sound
Of nothing

Up

Today

Today is the greatest
Day I've ever known
Can't live for tomorrow,
Tomorrow's much too long
I'll burn my eyes out
Before I get out

I wanted more
Than life could ever grant me
Bored by the chore
Of saving face

Today is the greatest
Day I've ever known
Can't wait for tomorrow
I might not have that long
I'll tear my heart out
Before I get out

Pink ribbon scars
That never forget
I tried so hard
To cleanse these regrets
My angel wings
Were bruised and restrained
My belly stings

Today is
The greatest day

I want to turn you on
I want to turn you

Today is the greatest
Today is the greatest day
Today is the greatest day
That I have ever really known

Up

Hummer

Faith lies in
The ways of sin
I chased the charmed
But I don't want them anymore

And in their eyes I was alive
A fool's disguise
Take me away from you

Shame my tongue
Fat with promise all along
But when I woke up from that sleep
I was happier than I'd ever been

When you decide
That your life is a prize
Renew and rivive
It's alright honey
It's alright, yeah

Happiness will make you wonder
Will I feel OK?
It scares the disenchanted
Far away

Yeah I want something new
But what am I supposed to do about you
Yeah I love you, it's true

Life's a bummer
When you're a hummer
Life's a drag

Ask yourself a question
Anyone but me
I ain't free

Ask yourself a question
Anyone but me
I ain't free

Do you feel
Love is real?

Up

Rocket

Bleed in your own light
Dream of your own life
I miss me
I miss everything I'll never be
And on, and on

I torch my soul to show
The world that I am pure
Deep inside my heart
No more lies

A crown of horns
An image formed deformed
The mark I've borne
A mark of scorn to you

Consume my love, devour my hate
Only powers my escape
The moon is out the, stars invite
I think I'll leave tonight

So soon I'll find myself alone
To relax and fade away
Do you know what's coming down
Do you know I couldn't stay free?

I shall be free
I shall be free free
Free of those voices inside me
I shall be free
I shall be free

Disarm

Disarm you with a smile
And cut you like you want me to
Cut that little child
Inside of me and such a part of you
Ooh, the years burn

I used to be a little boy
So old in my shoes
And what I choose is my choice
What's a boy supposed to do?
The killer in me is the killer in you
My love
I send this smile over to you

Disarm you with a smile
And leave you like they left me here
To wither in denial
The bitterness of one who's left alone
Ooh, the years burn
Ooh, the years burn, burn, burn

I used to be a little boy
So old in my shoes
And what I choose is my voice
What's a boy supposed to do?
The killer in me is the killer in you
My love
I send this smile over to you

The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you

Soma

Nothing left to say
And all I've left to do
Is run away
From you
And she led me on, down
With secrets I can't keep

Close your eyes and sleep
Don't wait up for me
Hush now don't you speak
To me

Wrapped my hurt in you
And took my shelter in that pain
The opiate of blame
Is your broken heart, your heart

So now I'm all by myself
As I've always felt
I'll betray my tears
To anyone caught in our ruse of fools

One last kiss from me...yeah
One last kiss good night

Didn't want to lose you once again
Didn't want to be your friend
Fulfilled a promise made of tin
And crawled back to you

I'm all by myself
As I've always felt
I'll betray myself
To anyone, lost, anyone but you

So let the sadness come again
On that you can depend on me, yeah
Until the bitter, bitter end of the world, yeah
When god sleeps in bliss

And I'm all by myself
As I've always felt
And I'll betray myself
To anyone

Geek U.S.A.

Lover lover let's pretend
We're born as innocents
Cast into the world
With apple eyes

To wish wish dangerous
My dear delirious
To try and leave
The rest of us behind

Shot full of diamonds
And a million years
The disappointed disappear
Like they were never here

Kiss kiss all of this
The hiss that we had miss
And understand what can't be understood

Sear those thoughts of me
Alone and unhappy
I never liked me anyway

If by chance
Or circumstance
We should fail
Don't be so sad

Shot full of diamonds
And a million years
The disappointed disappear
Like they were never here

In a dream
We are connected
Siamese twins
At the wrist

And then I knew we'd been forsaken
Expelled from paradise
I can't believe them
When they say that it's alright

Words can't define what I feel inside
Who needs them?
Caught with this virus of my mind
I give in to my disease, of my needs
To my disease, of my needs

She really loves to break
Her dad says its OK
She really loves to break
And give it all away

Her ma says she's afraid
What more can she fake
She really needs to break
And give herself away

She gave it all away
She gave it all away
She gave it all away
We really love the USA

Mayonaise

Fool enough to almost be it
Cool enough to not quite see it
Doomed
Pick your pockets full of sorrow
And run away with me tomorrow
June

We'll try and ease the pain
But somehow we'll feel the same
Well, no one knows
Where our secrets go

I send a heart to all my dearies
When your life is so, so dreary
Dream
I'm rumored to the straight and narrow
While the harlots of my perils
Scream

And I fail
But when I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I will

Mother weep the years I'm missing
All our time can't be given
Back
Shut my mouth and strike the demons
That cursed you and your reasons
Out of hand and out of season
Out of love and out of feeling
So bad

When I can, I will
Words defy the plan
When I can, I will

Fool enough to almost be it
And cool enough to not quite see it
And old enough to always feel this
Always old, I'll always feel this

No more promise no more sorrow
No longer will I follow
Can anybody hear me
I just want to be me
When I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I will

Defile my life

I don't need
I don't care
Please

I want to go home
'cause when a lover aches
That's when a lover breaks
I want to go home

I gave my life away
And I feel no pain

And she was my angel
And what I've recovered of me
I put into a box underneath my bed

When you lie in your bed
And you lie to yourself
When you lie in your bed
And you lie to yourself
Lie

Who rights wrongs where others cling?

And it's a chance I'll have to take
And it's a chance I'll have to break

I go along
Just because I'm lazy
I go along to be with you

And those moonsongs
That you sing your babies
Will be the songs to see you through

I'll hear your song
If you want me to
I'll sing along
And it's a chance I'll have to take
And it's a chance I'll have to break

Givin' in for nothin' less

Who really needs

And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
'Til the landslide brought it down

Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?
Can I handle the seasons of my life?

Well, I've been afraid of changing cause I've
Built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older
And I'm getting older, too

And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
The landslide brought it down

Well I met a girl called Sandoz
And she taught me many many things
Good things, very good things

It was hot though the snow lay on the ground
Strange things, very strange things
My mind has wings

Sandoz Sandoz
Will you tell me "No?"

One kiss from her and you know your time has come
Good times for all time

Reoccuring living bad dreams at the vortex of lost souls
Wailing lost souls of shame
We are in one hole

Taste my shit you wench
Lifting wailing lost souls who stand a chance
Hot, my eyes darkly gaze and wonder- do not enter
Why why why?
I was born whole
Fractured divided shattered into a billion fragments
A million piece puzzle
A million piece jigsaw puzzle with no this, and no that...

Disc 1

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness

Time is never time at all
You can never ever leave without leaving a piece of youth
And our lives are forever changed
We will never be the same
The more you change the less you feel
Believe, believe in me, believe
That life can change, that you're not stuck in vain
We're not the same, we're different tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight
And you know you're never sure
But you're sure you could be right
If you held yourself up to the light
And the embers never fade in your city by the lake
The place where you were born
Believe, believe in me, believe
In the resolute urgency of now
And if you believe there's not a tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight
We'll crucify the insincere tonight
We'll make things right, we'll feel it all tonight
We'll find a way to offer up the night tonight
The indescibable moments of your life tonight
The impossible is possible tonight
Believe in me as I believe in you, tonight

Tonight, Tonight

Time is never time at all
You can never ever leave without leaving a piece of youth
And our lives are forever changed
We will never be the same
The more you change the less you feel
Believe, believe in me, believe
That life can change, that you're not stuck in vain
We're not the same, we're different tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight
And you know you're never sure
But you're sure you could be right
If you held yourself up to the light
And the embers never fade in your city by the lake
Yhe place where you were born
Believe, believe in me, believe
In the resolute urgency of now
And if you believe there's not a tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight
We'll crucify the insincere tonight
We'll make things right, we'll feel it all tonight
We'll find a way to offer up the night tonight
The indescibable moments of your life tonight
The impossible is possible tonight
Believe in me as I believe in you, tonight

Jellybelly

Welcome to nowhere fast
Nothing here ever lasts
Nothing but memories
Of what never was
We're nowhere, we're nowhere, we're nowhere to be
Nowehere, we're nowhere, we're nowhere to see
Living makes me sick
So sick I wish i'd die
Down in the belly of the beast
I can't lie
You're nowhere, you're nowhere, you're nowhere to be
Nowhere, you're nowhere, you're nowhere to see
There's nothing left to do
There's nothing left to feel
Doesn't matter what you want, so
To make yourself feel better
You make it so you'll never
Give in to your forevers
And live for always
And forever, forever, you're forever to be
Forever, forever, you're forever to me

Zero

My reflection, dirty mirror
There's no connection to myself
I'm your lover, I'm your zero
I'm the face in your dreams of glass
So save your prayers
For when we're really gonna need 'em
Throw out your cares and fly
Wanna go for a ride?


She's the one for me
She's all I really need
Cause she's the one for me
Emptiness is loneliness, and lonliness is cleanliness
And cleanliness is godliness, and god is empty just like me
Intoxicated with the madness, I'm in love with my sadness
Bullshit fakers, enchanted kingdoms
The fashion victims chew their charcoal teeth
I never let on, that I was on a sinking ship
I never let on that I was down
You blame yourself, for what you can't ignore
You blame yourself for wanting more
She's the one for me
She's all I really need
She's the one for me
She's my one and only

Here is No Why

The useless drag of another day
The endless drags of a death rock boy
Mascara sure and lipstick lost
Glitter burned by restless thoughts
Of being forgotten
And in your sad machines
You'll forever stay
Desperate and displeased-with whoever you are
And you're a star
Somewhere-he pulls his hair down-over a frowning smile
A hidden diamond you cannot find
A secret star that cannot shine over to you
May the king of gloom, be forever doomed
And in your sad machines
You'll forever stay
Burning up in speed
Lost inside the dreams, of teen machines
The useless drags, the empty days
The lonely towers of long mistakes
To forgotten faces and faded loves
Sitting still was never enough
And if you're giving in, then you're giving up
Cause in your sad machines
You'll forever stay
Burning up in speed
Lost inside the dreams, of teen machines

Bullet With Butterfly Wings

The world is a vampire, sent to drain
Secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames
And what do I get, for my pain
Betrayed desires, and a piece of the game
Even though I know-i suppose I'll show
All my cool and cold-like old job
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Now I'm naked, nothing but an animal
But can you fake it, for just one more show
And what do you want, I want to change
And what have you got
When you feel the same
Even though I know-i suppose I'll show
All my cool and cold-like old job
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Tell me I'm the only one
Tell me there's no other one
Jesus was an only son
Tell me I'm the chosen one
Jesus was an only son for you
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
And I still believe that I cannot be saved

To Forgive

Ten times removed
I forget about where it all began
Bastard son of a bastard son of
A wild eyeed child of the sun
And right as rain, I'm not the same but
I feel the same, I feel nothing
Holding back the fool again
Holding ck the fool pretends
I forget to forget nothing is important
Holding back the fool again
I sensed my loss
Before I even learned to talk
And I remember my birthdays
Empty party afternoons won't come back
Holding back the fool again
Holding back the fool pretends
I forget to forget nothing is important
Holding back the fool again
I forget to forget me
I forget to forget you see
Nothing is important to me
I knew my loss
Before I even learned to speak
And all along, I knew it was wrong
But I played along, with my birthday song
Holding back the fool again
Holding back the fool pretends
I forget to forget nothing is important
Holding back the fool again

An Ode to No One

I'm never coming back
I'm never giving in
I'll never be the shine in your spit
I disconnect the act
I disconnect the dots
I disconnect the me in me
And you're mistaken, it's you that's faking
Living and breathing and dying too
This message is for anyone who dares to hear a fool
You can't bring me back, you can't bring me back
Cause I give it all back to you
Thru sacred alleys, the living wrecks
Wreak their havoc upon this world
The disenchanted, the romantics,
The body and face and soul of you is gone down that deep black hole
Destroy the mind-destroy the body-but you cannot destroy the heart
And you, you make me so I need to disconnect
And you make it so real
I don't need you love to disconnect
To runaround kids in get-go cars
With vaseline afterbirths and neon coughs
Galaxies full of nobodies
Giving us the farewell runarounds
I took a virgin mary axe to his sweet baby jane, lost my innocence to a no good girl, scratch my
Face with anvil hands, and coil my tongue around a bumblebee mouth
And I give it all back to you
No way, I don't need it, I don't need your love to disconnect
And you make it, so real, I don't need your love to disconnect
No way to disconnect
And you make it so real
I don't need your love to disconnect
No way to disconnect

Love

To my mistakes, to my mistakes of cowardice
She shimmy shakes, the jimmy jakes of consequence
Born of the airs and dues, my airs of madness do declare
That it's ok, it's love
It's what you wanted to see, it's who you wanted to be
For what you needed to need, she'll make it up
Love, it's who you know
Machine gun blues, her vacant rush is so steel
I'm unaware, lost inside your visions
I got mine too over, I got mine and I got you
Cause I know you, you're love
It's what you wanted to see, it's who you wanted to be
For what you needed to need, she'll make it up
Love, it's who you know
Can I look up to you as you look down on me
Can I feel in to you as you felt in to me
I can't help what you see, I can't help but to be
For what you needed to need, she'll make it
Love, it's who you know

Cupid de Locke

Cupid hath pulled back his sweetheart's bow
To cast divine arrows into her soul
To grab her attention swift and quick
Or morrow the marrow of her bones be thick
With turpentine kisses and mistaken blows


See the devil may do as the devil may care
He loves none sweeter as sweeter the dare
Her mouth the mischief he doth seek
Her heart the captive of which he speaks
So note all ye lovers in love with the sound
Your world be shattered with nary a note
Of one cupids arrow under your coat


And in the land of star crossed lovers
And barren hearted wanderers
Forever lost in forsaken missives and satan's pull
We seek the unseekable and we speak the unspeakable
Our hopes dead gathering dust to dust
In faith, in compassion, and in love

Galapogos

Ain't it funny how we pretend we're still a child
Softly stolen under our blanket skies
And rescue me from me, and all that I believe
I won't deny the pain
I won't deny the change
And shoul I fall from grace here with you
Will you leave me too?


Carve out your heart for keeps in an old oak tree
And hold me for goodbyes-and-whispered lullabyes
And tell me I am still
The man I'm supposed to be
I won't deny the pain
I won't deny the change
And should I fall from grace here with you
Will you leave me too?


Too late to turn to turn back now, I'm running out of sound
And I am changing, changing
And if we died right now, this fool you love somehow
Is here with you
I won't deny the pain
I won't deny the change
And should I fall from grace here with you
Would you leave me too?

Muzzle

I fear that I am ordinary, just like everyone
To lie here and die among the sorrows
Adrift among the days
For everything I ever said
And everything I've ever done is gone and dead
As all things must surely have to end
And great loves will one day have to part
I know that I am meant for this world
My life has been ewxtraordinary
Blessed and cursed and won
Time heals but I'm forever broken
By and by the way...
Have you ever heard the words
I'm singing in these song?
It's for the girl I've loved all along
Can a taste of love be so wrong
As all things must serly have to end
And great loves will one day have to part
I know that I am meant for this world
And in my mind as I was floating
Far above the clouds
Some children laughed i'd fall for certain
For thinking that i'd last forever
But I knew exactly where I was
And I knew the meaning of it all
And I knew the the distance to the sun
And I knew the echo that is love
And I knew the secrets in your spires
And I knew the emptiness of youth
And I knew the solitude of heart
And I knew the murmurs of the soul
And the world is drawn into your hands
And the world is etched upon your heart
And the world so hard to understand
Is world you can't live without
And I knew the silence of the world

Porcelina of the Vast Oceans

As far as you take me, that's where I believe
The realm of soft delusions, floating on the laves
On a distant shoreline, she waves her arms to me
As all the thought police, and closing in for sleep
The dilly dally, of my bright lit stay
The steam of my misfortunes
Has given me the power to be afraid
And in my mind I'm everyone
And in my mind
Without a care in this whole world
Without a care in this life
It's what you take that makes it right
Porcelina of the oceans blue
In the slipstream, of thoughtless thoughts
The light of all that's good, the light of all that's true
To the fringes gladly, I walk unadorned
With gods and their creations
With filth and disease
Porcelina, she waits for me there
With seashell hissing lullabyes
And whispers fathomed deep inside my own
Hidden thoughts and alibis
My secret thoughts come alive
Without a care in this whole world
Without a care in this life
It's what you take that makes it right
And in my mind I'm everyone
In my mind I'm everyone of you
You make it right
It's all allright
You make it right
Porcelina of the oceans blue

Take Me Down

Take me down, to the underground
Won't you take me down, to the underground
Why oh why, there is no light
And if I can't sleep, can you hold my life
And all I see is you
Take my hand, I lost where I began
In my heart I know all of my faults
Will you help me understand
And I believe in you
You're the other half of me
Soothe and heal...
When you sleep, when you dream,
I'll be there if you need me, whenever I hear you sing...
There is a sun, it'll come, the sun, I hear them call me down
I held you once, a love that once, and life had just begun
And you're all I see...
And trumpets blew, and angels flew on the other side
And you're all I see, and you're all I'll need
There's a love that god puts in your heart

Disc 2

Where Boys Fear to Tread

Candy cane walks down
To build a bonfie, to break my fall
My baby, my sweet thing
Just maybe we could lose ourselves this time
King of the horseflies, dark prince of death
His tragic forces are heaven sent
In sweet things, in a lovers breath
In knowing this was meant to be the last
A go-go-kids, a go-go-style
A suck suck kiss, a suck suck smile
As always, in youn gneed
A velied promise to never die
On dead highways, her black beauties roam
For june angels, so far from home
For a love lost, a faded picture
To tread lightning, to ink the lavender skies
So get on the bomb
Get back where you belong

Bodies

Cast the pearls aside, of a simple life of need
Come into my life forever
The crumbled cities stand as known
Of the sights you have been shown
Of the hurt you call your own
Love is suicide


The empty bodies stand at rest
Casualties of their own flesh
Afflicted by their dispossession
But no bodies ever knew
Nobodys
No bodies felt like you
Nobodys
Love is suicide


Now we drive the night, to the ironies of peace
You can't help deny forever
The tragedies reside in you
The secret sights hide in you
The lonely nights divide you in two
All my blisters now revealed
In the darkness of my dreams
In the spaces in between us
But no bodies ever knew
Nobodys
No bodies felt like you
Nobodys
Love is suicide

Thirty-Three

Speak to me in a language I can hear
Humour me before I have to go
Deep in thought I forgive everyone
As the cluttered streets greet me once again
I know I can't be late, supper's waiting on the table
Tomorrow's just an excuse away
So I pull my collar up and face the cold, on my own
The earth laughs beneath my heavy feet
At the blasphemy in my old jangly walk
Steeple guide me to my heart and home
The sun is out and up and down again
I know I'll make it, love can last forever
Graceful swans of never topple to the earth
And you can make it last, forever you
You can make it last, forever you
And for a moment I lose myself
Wrapped up in the pleasures of the world
I've journeyed here and there and back again
But in the same old haunts I still find my friends
Mysteries not ready to reveal
Sympathies I'm ready to return
I'll make the effort, love can last forever
Graceful swans of never topple to the earth
Tomorrow's just an excuse
And you can make it last, forever you
You can make it last, forever you

In the Arms of Sleep

Sleep will not come to this tired body now
Peace will not come to this lonely heart
There are some things I'll live without
But I want you to know that I need you right now
I need you tonite
I steal a kiss from her sleeping shadow moves
Cause I'll always miss her wherever she goes
And I'll always need her more than she could ever need me
I need someone to ease my mind
But sometimes a someone is so hard to find
And I'll do anything to keep her here tonite
And I'll say anything to make her feel alright
And I'll be anything to keep her here tonite
Cause I want you to stay, with me
I need you tonite
She comes to me like an angel out of time
As I play the part of a saint on my knees
There are some things I'll live without
But I want you to know that I need you right now
Suffer my desire
Suffer my desire
Suffer my desire for you

1979

Shakedown 1979, cool kids never have the time
On a live wire right up off the street
You and I should meet
Junebug skipping like a stone
With the headlights pointed at the dawn
We were sure we'd never see an end to it all
And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
And we don't know
Just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below
Double cross the vacant and the bored
They're not sure just what we have in the store
Morphine city slippin dues down to see
That we don't even care as restless as we are
We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts
And poured cement, lamented and assured
To the lights and towns below
Faster than the speed of sound
Faster than we thought we'd go, beneath the sound of hope
Justine never knew the rules,
Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls
No apologies ever need be made, I know you better than you fake it
To see that we don't care to shake these zipper blues
And we don't know just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below
The street heats the urgency of sound
As you can see there's no one around

Tales of a Scorched Earth

Farewell goodnight last one out turn out the lights
And let me be, let me die inside
Let me know the way from of this world of hate in you
Cause the dye is cast, and the bitch is back
And we're all dead teah we're all dead
Inside the future of a shattered past
I lie just to be real, and i'd die just to feel
Why do the same old things keep on happening?
Because beyond my hopes there are no feelings
Bless the martyrs and kiss the kids
For knowing better, for knowing this
Cause you're all whores and I'm a fag
And I've got no mother and I've got no dad
To save me the wasted, save me from myself
I lie just to be real, and i'd die just to feel
Why do the same old things keep on happening?
Because beyond my hopes there are no feelings
Everybody's lost just waiting to be found
Everyone's a thought just waiting to fade
So fuck it all cause I don't care
So what somehow somewhere we dared
To try to dare to dare for a little more
I lie just to be real, and i'd die just to feel
Why do the same old things keep on happening?
Because beyond my hopes there are no reasons

Thru the Eyes of Ruby

Wrap me up in always, and drag me in with maybes
Your innocence is treasure, your innocence is death
Your innocence is all I have
Breathing underwater, and living under glass
And if you spin your love around
The secrets of your dreams
You may find your love is gone
And is not quite what it seemed
To appear to disappear
Beneath all your darkest fears
I believe in never, I believe in all the way
But belief is not to notice, believe is just some faith
And faith can't help you to escape
And with this ring I wed thee true
And with this ring I wed thee now
And with this ring I play so dead
But no one's asking for the truth, so let me tell you
If you spin your love around
The secrets of your dreams
You may find your love is gone
And is not quite what it seemed
To appear to disappear
Beneath all your darkest fears
To the revelations of fresh faced youth
No one will come to save you
So speak your peace in the murmurs drawn
But youth is wasted on the young
Your strength is my weakness, your weakness my hate
My love for you just can't explain
Why we're forever frozen, forever beautiful,
Forever lost inside ourselves
The night has come to hold us young

Sally's in the stirrups claiming her destiny
And nobody nowhere understands anything
About me and all my dreams
Lost at sea

Misspent youth- faking up a rampage
To hold off the real slaves
Paid off and staid
And what you never knew
Can never get to you
So fake it

I'll be your super queen
And make you
Jukebox fuckup hanging round the drugstore
No matter what you say he'll be back for more
Mommy's in the manger with the little kids
She's got her reasons, got my forgets
Of tears and idle threats
Misplaced
And no matter what they do
They can't get to you
So fake it
I'll be your stumbleine
I'll be your super queen
And make you me
Come around ruby I could never sleep alone

X.Y.U.

She didn't wanna be, she didn't wanna know
She couldn't run away cause she was crazy
She gave it all away, she saw her baby break
And in the air it hung that she was dull razors
And I said, I wanna fill you up, I wanna break you, I wanna give you up
From one another, another one should come to one another
No one should come between us
Still I was lonely, and she was by my side, my one and only
Knows that she could never hide
I couldn't feel her, and it was just a game,
Cause I was lonely and she was crazy
Rat-tat-tat, ka boom boom, now take that, and just a bit of this
Cause I'm a watcher, and I'm a doer of none
Come to save you, cause you're all mine
I hurt where I can't feel, I feel where I can't hurt
I know where I can't know, I bleed for me and mine
Ka-boom, a rat-tat-tat, and some good ole bliss
Cause I'm a sister, and I'm a motherfuck
I am made of shamrocks, I am made of stern stuff
I am never enough, I am the forgotten child
And I said I wanna fill you up, I wanna break you, I wanna give you up
From one another, no one should ever come
In between us, between us and our love
Mary had a little lamb, her face was white as snow
And everywhere that mary went I was sure to go
Now mary's got a problem, and mary's not a stupid girl
Mary's got some deep shit, and mary does not forget
And this is how mary's garden grows, and this is how mary has her ghosts
And into the eyes of the jackyl I say ka-boom
Now we begin descent, to where we've never been
There is no going back, this wasn't meant to last
This is a hell on earth, we are meant to server
And she will never learn
Bye bye, baby goodbye

We Only Come Out at Night

We only come out at night, the days are much too bright
We only come out at night
And once again, you'll pretend to know me well, my friends
And once again, I'll pretend to know the way
Thru the empty space
Thru the secret places of the heart
We only come out at night, the days are much too bright
We only come out at night
I walk alone, I walk alone to find the way home
I'm on my own, I'm on my own to see the ways
That I can't help the days, you will make it home o.k
I know you can, and you can
We only come out at night, the days are much too bright
We only come out at night
And once again, you'll pretend to know that
There's an end, that there's an end to this begin
It will help you sleep at night
It will make it seem that right is always right
Alright?
We only come out at night

Beautiful

Beautiful, you're beautiful, as beautiful as the sun
Wonderful, you're wonderful, as wonderful as they come
And I can't help but feel attached
To the feelings I can't even match
With my face pressed up to the glass, wanting you
Beautiful, you're beautiful, as beautiful as the sky
Wonderful, it's wonderful, to know that you're just like I
And I'm sure you know me well, as I'm sure you don't
But you just can't tell
Who'll you love and who you won't
And I love you, as you love me
So let the clouds roll by your face
We'll let the world spin on to another place
We'll climb the tallest tree above it all
To look down on you and me and them
And I'm sure you know me well, as I'm sure you don't
But you just can't tell, who you'll love and who you won't
Don't let your life wrap up around you
Don't forget to call, whenever
I'll be here just waiting for you
I'll be under your stars forever
Neither here nor there just right beside you
I'll be under the stairs forever
Neither here nor there just right beside you

Lily (My One and Only)

Lily, my one and only
I can hardly wait till I see her
Silly, I know I'm silly
Cause I'm hanging in this tree
In the hopes that she will catch a glimpse of me
And thru her window shade
I watch her shadow move
I wonder if she.......?
Lily, my one and only
Love is in my heart and in your eyes
Will she or won't she want him
No one knows for sure
But an officer is knocking at my door
And thru her window shade
I watch her shadow move
I wonder if she could only see me?
And when I'm with her I feel fine
If I could kiss her I wouldn't mind the time it took to find
My lily, my one and only
I can hardly wait till I see her
Oh lily, I know you love me
Cause as they're draggin me away
I swear I saw her raise her hand and wave (goodbye)

By Starlight

By starlight I'll kiss you
And promise to be your one and only
I'll make you feel happy
And leave you to be lost in mine
And where will we go, what will we do?
Soon said i, will know
Dead eyes, are you just like me?
Cause her eyes were as vacant as the seas
Dead eyes, are you just like me?
And all along, we knew we'd carry on
Just to belong
By starlight I know you
As lovely as a wish granted true
My life has been empty, my life has been untrue
And does she really know, who I really am?
Does she really know me at last
Dead eyes, are you just like me?

Farewell and Goodnight

Goodnight, to every little hour that you sleep tite
May it hold you through the winter of a long night
And keep you from the loneliness of yourself
Heart strung is your heart frayed and empty
Cause it's hard luck, when no one understands your love
It's unsung, and I say
Goodnight, my love, to every hour in every day
Goodnight, always, to all that's in your heart


Goodnight, may your dreams be so happy and your
Head lite with the wishes of a sandman and a night light
Be careful not to let the bedbugs sleep tight nestled in your covers
The sun shines but I don't
A silver rain will wash away
And you can tell, it's just as well
Goodnight, my love, to every hour in every day
Goodnight, always to all that's pure that's in your heart

Adore

To Sheila

Twilight fades
Through blistered Avalon
The sky's cruel torch
On aching autobahn
Into the uncertain divine
We scream into the last divine

You make me real
You make me real
Strong as I feel
You make me real

Sheila rides
On crashing nightengale
Intake eyes
Leave passing vapor trails
With blushing brilliance alive
Because it's time to arrive

You make me real
You make me real
Strong as I feel
You make me

Lately, I just can't seem to believe
Discard my friends to change the scenery
It meant the world to hold a bruising faith
But now it's just a matter of grace

A summer storm
Graces all of me
Highway warm
Sing silent poetry
And I could bring you the light
And take you home into the night

You make me real Lately, I just can't seem to believe
You make me real Discard my friends that change the scenery
Strong as I feel It meant the world to hold a bruising faith
You make me real But now it's just a matter of grace

Ava Adore

It's you that I adore
You'll always be my whore
You'll be a mother to my child
And a child to my heart

We must never be apart
We must never be apart

Lovely girl, you're the beauty in my world
Without you, there aren't reasons left to find

And you'll pull your crooked teeth
You'll be perfect just like me
You'll be a lover in my bed
And a gun to my head

We must never be apart
We must never be apart

Lovely girl, you're the murder in my world
Dressing coffins for the souls I've left to die
Drinking mercury to the mystery
Of all that you should ever seek to find
In time

In you I see dirty
In you I count stars
In you I feel so pretty
In you I taste God
In you I feel so hungry
In you I crash cars

We must never be apart

Drinking mercury to the mystery
Of all that you should ever seek to find
Lovely girl, you're the murder in my world
Dressing coffins for the souls I've left behind
In time

We must never be apart

And you'll always be my whore
'Cause you're the one that I adore
And you'll pull your crooked teeth
You'll be perfect just like me

In you I feel so dirty
In you I crash cars
In you I feel so pretty
In you I taste God

We must never be apart

Up

Perfect

And I've known
We're just like old friends
We just can't pretend
That lovers make amends
We are reasons so unreal
We can't help but feel
That something has been lost

But please
You know you're just like me
Next time I promise we'll be perfect
Perfect
Perfect

Strangers down the line
Lovers out of time
Memories unwind
So far, I still know who you are
But now I wonder who I was
Angel, you know it's not the end
We'll always be good friends
The letters have been sent on

So please
You always were so free
You'll see, I promise we'll be perfect
Perfect

Strangers when we meet
Strangers on the street
Lovers walk asleep

Perfect
You know this has to be
We always were so free
We promised that we'd be
Perfect
Perfect

Daphne Descends

With the sugar sickness
You spy the kidnap kid
Who kids you to oblivion
It's the perfect hassle
For the perfumed kiss
He makes you miss him more than home

You love him
You love him more than this
You love him and you cannot, you can't resist

You love him
You love him for yourself
You love him and no one else, no one else

Past sidewalk ashes
A last lover's arc
You come apart to intertwine
It was all so simple
As you watched him move
Across the darkness in your room

You love him
You love him for yourself
You love him and no one else, no one else

And the winding vines
The pretty boys dive
And through the pinhole stars
Into the shadow wind
You will lose him then
On some gentle dawn
This boy is here and gone

You love him
You love him for yourself
You love him and no one, no one else

You love him
You love him more than this
You love him and you cannot, you can't resist

You love him
You love him

Once Upon A Time

Mother, I'm tired
Come surrender my son
Time has ravaged on my soul
No plans to leave, but still I go
Falling with the leaves
Falling out of sleep
To the last goodbyes
Who cares why?

Mother, I've tried
Wasting my life
I haven't given up, I lie
To make you so proud in my eyes
Falling out of sleep
Crawling over me
To the last goodbyes
Who cares why?

Tuesday's come and gone
Restless, still I drive
Try to leave it all behind
Falling, falling out of sleep
Falling, falling with the leaves
I go crawling, crawling over me

Once upon a time in my life
Once upon a time in my life
Once upon a time in my life
Once upon a time in my life
I went falling
I went falling

Mother, I hope you know
That I miss you so
Time has ravaged on my soul
To wipe a mother's tears grown cold

Up

Tear

The lights came on fast
Lost in motorcrash
Gone in a flash unreal
But you knew all along
You laugh the light
I sing the songs
To watch you numb

I saw you there
You were on your way
You held the rain
And for the first time, heaven seemed insane
'Cause heaven is to blame
For taking you away

And do you know the way that I can
Do you know the way that I can't lose?
And do you know the things that I can
Do you know the things that I can do?

Where is your heart?
Where is your heart gone to?
Tear me apart
Tear me apart from you

You laugh the light
I cry the wound
In gray afternoons

I saw you there
You were on your way
You held the rain
And for the first time, heaven seemed insane
For taking you away
'Cause heaven is to blame
For taking you away

The lights came to pass
Dead opera motorcrash
Gone in a flash unreal
In nitrous overcast

And do you know the way that I can
Do you know the way that I can't lose?
And do you know the things that I can
Do you know the things that I can't lose?

Tear me apart
Tear me apart from you
Where is your heart?
Where is your heart run to?

Up

Crestfallen

Who am I to need you when I'm down?
Where are you when I need you around?
Your life is not your own

And all I ask you
Is for another chance
Another way around you
To live by circumstance, once again

Who am I to need you now?
To ask you why, to tell you no
To deserve your love and sympathy
You were never meant to belong to me

And you may go, but I know you won't leave
Too many years built into memories
Your life is not your own

Who am I to need you now?
To ask you why, to tell you no
To deserve your love and sympathy
You were never meant to belong to me

Who am I to you?
Along the way
I lost my faith

And as you were, you'll be again
To mold like clay, to break like dirt
To tear me up in your sympathy
You were never meant to belong to me
You were never meant to belong to me
You were never meant to belong to me

Who am I?

What if the sun refused to shine?
What if the clouds refused to rain?
What if the wind refused to blow?
What if the seas refused to wave?
What if the world refused its turn?
What if the stars would hesitate?

What if what is isn't true?
What are you going to do?
What if what is isn't you?
Does that mean you've got to lose?
Digging for the feel of something new

What if the silence let you dream?
What if the air could let you breathe?
What if the words would bring you here?
What if this sound could bring you peace?

What if what is isn't true?
What are you going to do?
Digging for the feel of something new
What if what is isn't you?
Does that mean you've got to lose?

It came from your thoughts, your dreams and visions
Ripped up from your weeks and indecisions

What if the sun refused to shine?
What if the clouds refused to rain?
What if the world refused to turn?
What if the clocks would hesitate?

What if what is isn't true?
What are you going to do?
What if what is isn't you?
Does that mean you've got to lose?
Digging for the feel of something new

Does that mean you've got to choose
The feel of something new?
Does that mean you've got to lose
The thoughts you cannot lose?
What are you going to do?

Kiss and kill me sweetly
Come and drive me home
Drag the miles in me
I am yours alone

Inside where it's warm
Wrap myself in you
Outside where I'm torn
Fight myself in two
In two
Into you

Desire me so deeply
Drain and kick me hard
Whisper secrets for me
Try to go too far

Inside where it's warm
Wrap myself in you
Outside where I'm torn
Fight myself in two

Please don't change
Please don't change at all

Come and kiss me sweetly
Ride the telephone
Drag the miles to me
I am yours alone
Yours alone
On the telephone
Yours alone
Looking for a kiss kiss
Yours alone

The Tale of Dusty and Pistol Pete

Dusty screams, through doors and imaginary floors, "Why can't you miss me?"
Pistol Pete removes the final breaths from her unkind, and she is shaken
What does this mean, in love or in peace?
With you lying next to me
So faithless serene
And she calls to him

Let the waste cross the ancient trails to you
Far out beneath the sorrow clouds
Let them taste the bitter lost mistake of you
Let them cry out through your rusted scars

Alone he roams inside the ordinary catacombs of her waiting
With raven hands, she steals and staggers towards her man, still scorned by his demon
Because he's undone, become the language of
Disaster and love
Vengeance and dust
And she calls to him

Let the waste cross the ancient trails to you
Far out beneath the sorrow clouds
Let them taste the bitter lost mistake of you
Let them cry out through your rusted scars

Dusty screams, through doors and imaginary scenes of hurt and teardrop
As he holds her down, in the cold lonely winds
Together again, her inside him
And she calls to him

Let the waste cross the ancient trails to you
Far out beneath the sorrow clouds
Let them taste the bitter lost mistake of you
Let them cry out through your rusted scars

Annie-Dog

Amphetamine Annie-Dog
Has her leash and a face
Her velvet spleen, her shackle spine
Her diamond curse, it comes with mine

A vessel she, for violent I
Confession arms awake
Mine, mine, you were always mine
Possessed by my taste

And below the angel dog
Combs her hair and sings her psalms
The bombs go off, she doesn't notice
It all goes wrong, she sets things tragic
She is Venus, she is Mars
She's electric, and the struggle of

Upon my face we leave no trace
But in her stomach mercury aged

She holds the blood, she carves the knives
She digs the wives in our babies

Amphetamine Annie-Dog
Pulls her trash and her stories
From place to place, and bed to bed
Gives of herself and the magnet head

Another floor, another ceiling
Counting stairs with double meanings

Is it wrong to swallow whole?
To disappear in her?
To give her the priceless peace
Of giving up control?

We tumble out into the streets
And Annie-Dog, she drags her leash
Pretty face, ugly mouth
Bitter bred and so released

And by the no, and by the yes
Annie goes if you couldn't guess

A simple man, a sycophant
Her elephant with the laughing call
She wants clean sheets, and fresh flowers
And dental shots, and the Hong Kong glue

Amphetamine Annie-Dog
Has her leash and a face

Shame

You're gonna walk on home
You're gonna walk alone
You're gonna see this through
Don't let 'em get to you

Shame

Love is good and love is kind
Love is drunk and love is blind
Love is good and love is mine
Love is drunk all the time

Shame

You're gonna walk on home
You're gonna walk alone
You're gonna walk so far
You're gonna wonder who you are

Love is good and love is blind
Love is good and love is mine
Love is good all the time

Behold! The Night Mare

I faced the fathoms in your deep
Withstood the suitors' quiet siege
Pulled down the heavens just to please you
Appease you
The wind blows, and I know

I can't go on
Digging roses from your grave
To linger on
Beyond the beyond
Where the willows weep
And the whirlpools sleep
You'll find me
The coarse tide reflects sky

And the night mare rides on
And the night mare rides on
With a December black psalm
And the night mare rides on

Where I fear is lost here
The wind blows, and I know

All you have to do is run away
And steal yourself from me
Become a mystery to gaze into
You're so cruel in all you do
But still I believe, I believe in you

So may you come with your own knives
You'll never take me alive
With all the force of what is true
Is there nothing I can do?

I can't go on
Digging roses from your grave
To linger on
Beyond the beyond
Where the willows weep
And the whirlpools sleep
You'll find me

And the night mare rides on
And the night mare rides on
With a December black psalm
And the night mare rides on

I've faced the fathoms in your deep
Withstood the suitors' quiet siege
Pulled down the heavens just to please you
To hold the flower I can't keep

For Martha

Whenever I run
Whenever I run to you, lost one
It's never done
Just hanging on
Just past has let me be
Returning as if dream
Shattered as belief

If you have to go, don't say goodbye
If you have to go, don't you cry
If you have to go, I will get by
Someday I'll follow you and see you on the other side

But for the grace of love
I'd will the meaning of
Heaven from above
But for the grace of love
I'd will the meaning of
Heaven from above

Your picture out of time
Left aching in my mind
Shadows kept alive

If you have to go, don't say goodbye
If you have to go, don't you cry
If you have to go, I will get by
Someday I'll follow you and see you on the other side

But for the grace of love
I'd will the meaning of
Heaven from above
But for the grace of love
I'd will the meaning of
Heaven from above

Long horses, we are born
Creatures more than torn
Mourning our way home

Blank Page

Blank page was all the rage
Never meant to say anything
In bed I was half-dead
Tired of dreaming of rest
Got dressed above the state line
Looking for you at the five and dime
Stop sign told me to stay at home
Told me you were not alone

Blank page was all the rage
Never meant to hurt anyone
In bed I was half-dead
Tired of dreaming of rest

You haven't changed
You're still the same
May you rise as you fall
You were easy, you are forgotten
You are the ways of my mistakes

I catch the rainfall
Through the leaking roof
That you had left behind
You remind me of that leak in my soul
The rain falls, my friends call, leaking rain on the phone

Take a day, plant some trees
May they shade you from me
May your children play beneath

Blank page was all the rage
Never meant to say anything
In bed I was half-dead
Tired of dreaming of rest
Got dressed above the state line
Looking for you at the five and dime
But there I was, picking pieces up

You are a ghost
Of my indecision
No more little girl

Machina/The Machines Of God

The Everlasting Gaze

You know I'm not dead
You know I'm, you know I'm not dead
You know I'm not dead
You know I'm not dead

Now you know where I've been
As you sleep, shine I am
Waiting down patiently
Born of love

You know I'm, you know I'm not dead
I'm just living in my head
Forever waiting on the ways of your desire
You always find your way

And through it all, into us all you move
Forgotten touch, forbidden thought
We can never, ever know

You know I'm not dead
You know I'm, you know I'm not dead
You know I'm not dead
You know I'm not dead

Down below the creatures scream
Strangehold of God's machines
Begging to tear us out
Torn is hope

You know I'm, you know I'm not dead
I'm just the tears inside your head
Forever waiting on the ways of your desire
You always find a way

And through it all, into us all you move
Forgotten touch, forbidden thought
We can never, ever know

You know I'm not dead

We all want to hold in the everlasting gaze
Enchanted in the rapture of his sentimental sway
But underneath the wheels lie the skulls of every cog
The fickle fascination of an everlasting God

You know I'm not dead
I'm just living in my head
Forever waiting, forever waiting a cruel death

You know I'm not dead
I'm just living for myself
Forever waiting

You know I'm not dead

Raindrops & Sunshowers

Rain falls on everyone
The same old rain
And I'm just trying to walk with you
Between the raindrops

I send my echo out
To get your love without
Obscured reflections of my love

Rain falls on everyone
The same old rain
And I'm just trying to walk with you
Between the raindrops

I'll save a prayer for you
So lost and longing to
Be dragged through dirty streets
Wrapped up in clean white sheets
And if you think they'll watch you now
You should know they won't

Rain falls on everyone
The same old rain
And I'm just trying to walk with you
Between the raindrops
And I'm just trying to walk with you
Between the raindrops

I send my echo out
To get your love without
Obscured reflections of
Of my secret love
Force down the words about
To get your love without
Obscured reflections of my love

And I'm just trying to walk with you
Between the raindrops

Rain falls on everyone
The same old rain
And I'm just trying to walk with you
Between the raindrops

Rain falls on everyone
The same old rain
And I'm just trying to walk with you
Between the raindrops

Stand Inside Your Love

You love me, meant to be
Immutable, impossible
It's destiny, pure lunacy
Incalculable, insufferable
But for the last time
You're everything that I want and ask for
You're all that I dream

Who wouldn't be the one you love?
Who wouldn't stand inside your love?
Protected and the lover of
A pure soul
And beautiful
You

Don't understand, don't feel me now
I will breathe for the both of us
Travel the world, traverse the skies
Your home is here within my heart
And for the first time
I feel as though I am reborn in my mind
Recast as child in mystic sun

Who wouldn't be the one you love?
Who wouldn't stand inside your love?

And for the first time
I'm telling you how much I need and bleed for
Your every moment
Waking sun in my time
I'll wrap my wire around your heart and you're mine
You're mine forever

Who wouldn't be the one you love? (And live for)
Who wouldn't stand inside your love? (And die for)
Who wouldn't be the one you love?

I Of The Mourning

Radio, play my favorite song
Radio, radio
Radio, I'm alone
Radio, radio
Please don't let me go, radio

I peer through curtains on empty streets
Behind a wall of caller ID
No one's out there
To hear if I care
About the troubles in the air

'Cause I of the morning now go
Pick up where my thoughts left off
'Cause I'm home to die on my own

As my radio plays my favorite song
Radio, radio
Radio, don't you know
Radio, radio
Radio, I'm alone

I've blown the dust off my guitar
In the attic with the stars
I read your letters to feel better
My tears upon the faded ink

'Cause I of the morning now go
Pick up where my thoughts left off
'Cause I'm home to die on my own

As my radio plays my favorite song
Radio, radio
Radio, don't you know
Radio, radio
Radio, I'm alone

I sit in the dark light
To wait for the ghost night
To bring the past to life
To make a toast to life
'Cause I have survived

What is it you want?
What is it you want to change?
What is it you want?
What is it you want to change?
What is it you want to change?

Radio, radio, radio, radio
Radio, radio, radio, radio

What is it you want?
What is it you want to change?

What is it you want to change?

Give me tears, give me love
Let me rest, Lord above
Send the bored, your restless
The feedback scarred, devotionless

You're all a part of me now
And if I fall
You're all a part of me now
In the sun
You're all a part of me now
You're all a part of me now

Will our love ever be enough?
Just in time to prove
Will our words ever be enough?
Just in time to lose

Give me sight and barren breast
Pure snow and happiness
Give me time, give me peace
And I will prove my release

You're all a part of me now
And if I fall
You're all a part of me now
Trapped in the sun
You're all a part of me now
You're all a part of me now

Will our love ever be enough?
Just in time to prove
Will our time ever be enough?
Will our love ever be enough?

You're all a part of me now

Try, Try, Try

Pop Tart, what's our mission?
Do we know but never listen?
For too long they held me under
But I hear it's almost over
In Detroit on a Memphis train
Like you said, it's down in the heat and the summer rain
The automatic gauze of your memories
Down in the sleep at the airplane races

Try to hold on to this heart a little bit longer
Try to hold on to this love aloud
Try to hold on, for this heart's a little bit colder
Try to hold on to this love

Paperback scrawl your hidden poems
Written around the dried out flowers
Here we are, still trading places
Try to hold on

Pop Tart, can you envision
A free world of clear division?
For too long they held us under
But I know we're getting over
In Detroit with the Nashville tears
Like you said, it's down in the heat with the broken numbers
Down in the gaze of solemnity
Down in the way you've held together

Try to hold on to this heart a little bit closer
Try to hold on to this love aloud
Try to hold on, for this heart's a little bit older
Try to hold on to this love aloud

And we are still alive
Try to hold on
And we have survived
Try to hold on
And no one should deny

We tried to hold onto the pulse of the feedback current
Into the flow of encrypted movement
Slapback kills the ancient remnants
That try to hold on

Try to hold on to this heart alive
Try to hold on to this heart aloud
Try to hold on
And we are still alive
Try to hold on
And we have survived
Try to hold on

Pop Tart, you never listen
Skinned knees
Try to hold on
Stop start, what's our mission?
Skinned knees
Try to hold on

If I were alive
If I were real
Would you survive?
What would you feel?

Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
As sentimental as our broken dreams

Let me die for rock and roll
Let me die to save my soul
Let me die, let me die, rock and roll
Let the world forgive the past
Let all the girls kiss the boys at last
Let me go, let me go, rock and roll

Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, a heavy metal machine
We're the metal in their metal machines
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine

If I were dead
Would my records sell?
Could you even tell?
Is it just as well?

Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
It's elemental to all the rust it brings
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine

Let me die for rock and roll
Let me die to save my soul
Let me die, let me die, rock and roll
Let the world forgive the past
Let all the girls kiss the boys at last
Let me go, let me go, rock and roll

Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, a heavy metal machine
We're the metal in their droning schemes
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine

Is it up to me?

That it's not yours to keep?

This Time

This time I need to know
I really must be told
If it's over
It's up to you, you know
The things you want to hold
Are in pieces

Crashing down
Crashing down again
Crashing down
Crashing down, my friends

I've got to move it on
I've got to sing my song
While I still can
Dispatch the last alarms
Hand out the last few charms
There's no surprises

Only love, yeah
Only love can win
Crashing down
Crashing down, my friends

This time I need to know
I really must be told
That it's over
I've lived my life alone
My every step foretold
To never linger
And yet it haunts me so
What we are letting go
Our spell is broken

Crashing down
Crashing down, my friends
Crashing down
Crashing down again
Only love, yeah
Only love will be enough
Yeah, only love will win

For every chemical
You trade a piece of your soul
With no return
And who you think you know
Doesn't know you at all
Their drain is needless

Someday we'll wave hello
And wish we'd never waved goodbye
To this romance
We'll drink up every line
And shoot up every word
Till there's no more

Crashing down
Crashing down, my friends
Only love
Only love can win

So cry these tears
We'll cry as all
We've held so long to fall apart
As the curtain falls
We bid you all goodnight

The Imploding Voice

Everywhere you are
Is everywhere you've been
Just lost to the beat
Punching through your skin
You don't know what to do
But still you want to crawl
All through the broken glass
That's everywhere you are

Your love must always be true
Your love must always be you

Everywhere you are
Anywhere you go
Even if you're starved
It matters what you do
But even if you've gone too far
You can follow you
Everywhere you are

And in your mind
You were alone
All this tim
With everything you were
And every smile you wore
Still locked in your heart
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you are
Every single chard

Everywhere you are
You're never too far
'Cause anywhere you'd go
Even to the stars
All you have to do
Is play the part of who you are
The rest is up to you

Phase unwound
By yourself
Atom bomb
On the shelf unsung
Pause of light
Pulse of life
New face dawns

Everywhere you are
And everywhere you go
Even if you're down
Even if you're low
The thought of you
It's in the eyes of all
Astride a storied past
That's everywhere you are

Your love must always be true
Your love must always be you

Everywhere you are
Anywhere you go
Even if you're scarred
It's all a part of you
But ever should you put it down
You can never lose me
Everywhere you are

Glass And The Ghost Children

To the center of the earth
Or anywhere God decides
Full of fever pulling forth
We hear our call as all
To the center of the earth
As if written in
DNA is reaching out
To your frequency

I want to live
Don't want to die
I want to live
I want to try
All in prayer
Prayer in all
All are scared
Scared of all

Black rooms are calling
To men in leather coats
White labs are cooking
Up the silver ghost
The glass migrates under
Her translucent skin
And all are spiders
Wonder what we've got us in

All is you
You are all
All with you
You in all
I want to live
I don't want to die
I want to live
I want to try

So it's all very obtuse, because it's all, like, I don't know.
So, like, I started thinking that everything I operate on is based on what I believe God was telling me to do.
God could be my intuition or whatever, but I always assume, I always assume that the voice I hear is the voice of God.
Then I started thinking, what if I'm insane?
So I'm operating on the premise that I'm hearing the voice of God
Or what I perceive to be God speaking to me or through me,
But maybe I'm completely in...so all my...
Demagoguery in my life about me thinking that my life has importance, my, my...thinking that my life has importance.
My thought of it and the fact that I believe I'm following my intuition which in and of itself may be completely false.
So then I started freaking out, thinking - of itself may be completely false.
And again this creature that believes he's acting upon heavenly intuition but meanwhile he's totally rampant.
And I started thinking maybe this is the cause of all the negativity against...
And I started thinking maybe this is the cause of all the negativity against...
And I started thinking maybe this is the cause of all the negativity against...


So meets the final coda of a vinyl storm
One more cherry cola to lift up her dead arms
A dream of soft focus, sunsets filters through the din
We are losing contact as she dials it in
She can hear glass calling, or is it someone that looks like him?
She eyes TV reflection, and nods a knowing look
She says it doesn't matter, she never liked her looks
I have seen a thousand fractures, I have seen everything
'Cause knowing is its own answer, love something in a book
There's not much left to ponder, not much left to cook

As she counted the spiders, as they crawled up inside her

Wound

There you are, as you always were
In bathing light and naked blue
You're a part of me, eternal one
By grand design and setting sun

If you wait, I will wait
Taste, I will taste
If you love, I will love
Run, I will run
To my last breath

Last night I turned around and thought I saw myself turning
Inside the strangest dream of life, unloved and cities burning

Awake in my arms you cry unshamed
Our age of the hours while they still devour all
So take it all, I doubt if we will know it's gone
'Cause we've been here since time began

Begged God awake and make these plans
Wound opens, reveal this broken man
And soon there's notions of blood on his hands

If you wait, I will wait
Taste, I will taste
If you love, I will love
Run, I will run
To my last breath

Last night I turned around and thought I saw myself turning
Last night I turned around and thought I watched the world ending
Inside the crushing down I felt a pang, the tide was turning

Destroyed in the wake
The jealous ingrates
Who'll tear this world down
To spite God above
With his own love
With his own love

If you wait, if you wait
If you wait, I will wait
Taste, I will taste
If you love, I will love
Run, I will run
To my last breath

Crying Tree Of Mercury, The

This is the song I've been singing my whole life
I've been waiting like a knife
To cut open your heart
And bleed my soul into you
I did it all for you
You and you and you and you

This is the sound I've been making my whole life
I've been waiting for this night
To clear up all the talk
Although I'm selfish to a fault
Is it selfish it's you I want?
You, I did it all for you

This love will stand as long as you
There's really no excuse
I did it all for you

These are the tears I've been crying my whole life
Like an ocean of desire
I'm reaching through the noise
Across the dusk of time
Within the lilting lies
I am singing out to you

Up

With Every Light

Taking over, we're taking over
Throw the weight up off your shoulders now
That we can show our love

It's almost over, it's almost over
No more war and no more soldiers
To stand against his love

Away with all the troubles that you've made
Away with waiting for another day
Away

Look ma, the sun is shining on me
Impatient in love and aching to be
Could you believe in heaven
If heaven was all you had?

We're taking over, we're taking over
Throw away your four-leafed clovers
And stand beside this love

Away with everything you've grown to hate
Away with everything that holds you safe
Away

And every light I've found
Is every light that's shining down on me
Every light light I've found
Is every light that's shining down on me
Every light I've found
Is every light that's shining down on me
I'm never alone

Look ma, the sun is shining on me
Taking my time to do as I please
Could you believe in heaven
If heaven was all you had?

The sun is beaming, radiating
All the love we are creating
We are creating

And every light I've found
Is every light that's shining down on me
Every light light I've found
Is every light that's shining down on me
Every light I've found
Is every light that's shining down on me
Every light I've found
Is every light that's shining down on me
I'm never alone

Blue Skies Bring Tears

Unleash the Armageddon
So all the children go to heaven
I sit by quiet still
With their pictures on my eyes
You'll draw the guns you're given
Write down the words as written
And never disturb the presence
Of resurrection crutch

And it's about time
It's about drawing near
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears

Descend the darkened stairways
Make hate with plastic playmates
And fire out remaining traces
Of your self-esteem
Mainline the deepest secrets
Lick clean the dirty fingers
I am a stranger to you
As you are to yourself

And it's about time
It's about fear
Blue skies bring tears
Don't you want me
As I awake the city sigh
We'll watch the seasons die
Blue skies bring tears

Take me inside your body
Cover me with your soul
To the darkest recess
Is where I wish to go
You are the greatest flower
That I have ever devoured
I ask for nothing given
For nothing in return

Blue skies bring tears

Age Of Innocence

Radio, play my favorite song
Radio, radio
Radio, I'm alone
Radio, radio
Please don't let me go, radio

I peer through curtains on empty streets
Behind a wall of caller ID
No one's out there
To hear if I care
About the troubles in the air

'Cause I of the morning now go
Pick up where my thoughts left off
'Cause I'm home to die on my own

As my radio plays my favorite song
Radio, radio
Radio, don't you know
Radio, radio
Radio, I'm alone

I've blown the dust off my guitar
In the attic with the stars
I read your letters to feel better
My tears upon the faded ink

'Cause I of the morning now go
Pick up where my thoughts left off
'Cause I'm home to die on my own

As my radio plays my favorite song
Radio, radio
Radio, don't you know
Radio, radio
Radio, I'm alone

I sit in the dark light
To wait for the ghost night
To bring the past to life
To make a toast to life
'Cause I have survived

What is it you want?
What is it you want to change?
What is it you want?
What is it you want to change?
What is it you want to change?

Radio, radio, radio, radio
Radio, radio, radio, radio
Radio, radio, radio, radio

What is it you want?
What is it you want to change?
What is it you want?
What is it you want to change?

I'm glass, I'm glass
I'm shattering fast
I'm glass, I'm glass
I'm shattering, shattering
Glass, glass, glass
I'm shattering fast
I'm glass, I'm glass
I've got a lot of tears
In a blood-stained jar
It's been a real long time
Since I walked the fine line
You put up the walls
You put up the walls
Hold all my calls
I'll be by the pool
Won't you please
Worship me
Won't you love
What I adore
All alone
In my soul
I betrayed
Rock and roll
Everybody knows I'm last, I'm last
And everybody knows I'm fast, I'm fast
I'm shattering, shattering
Glass, glass, glass
I'm shattering fast
I'm glass, I'm glass
You put up the walls
Hold all my calls
Cause I'll be by the pool
Playing with my guns
Cause there's nowhere to run
Cause I'm the one you love now
Staying after school
Breaking all your rules

Real Love

Fall into the century on a supersonic cross
Blessed she in aching silence, eternal loss
Calling out I won't surrender a locket of her hair
Sympathize her pious pleasures
Go down the stairs
Into the dark again
To feel alive again, and wait for
Real love
Or is it me you're after
Is it time
Cause it's now or never
Real love
Real love forever
Real love
Born of the ball and chain
Into a world sustained with sorrow
Real love
A real touch we speak in
Is it lies
Or is it what we're seekin'
Real love
In the eyes, behold and you'll find the 21st century
Detonate her will and her widowed speech
Buried in the backyard shadow, the rusty coffee tin
That held her mother's first kiss
In a nameless dream
Fall down the stairs again
To feel alive against tomorrow
Real love
Or is it me you're after
Is it time
Cause it's now or never
Real love
Real love forever
Is it love
Or just yours to treasure
Real love
Real love
Real love
We never listen
Real love will listen
And tell of a fortune
Real love is riches
Scratch through the changes
Real love is nameless
So tired and hopeless
Real love is painless
Nobody mentions
We ever move to collect
The solar questions
Demon scorn should not relax
The laws of gravity
Real love

Go

The slowest night
The slowest dance
You sway across the room
As in a dream
An empty house
With empty rooms
I loved you so
And now you're going
Go, and leave if you must know
And go, I never wanted you to know
Go
We ran away
Or so we thought
Now I know you were told to go
To know love
To show love
And go
To give love
To feel loved
And go
I fell asleep
Washed up on the shore
I kiss my soul and priest deformed
You move to speak
No words could reach me
At one, once knew
Go, love, and learn by your desire
And know love
You're the only reason why
I'm terrified to go
To know love
To show love
Go
To give love
To feel loved
Go
To know love
To show love
I'm begging you to go

Let Me Give the World to You

Last chance to make believe in always
And all it seems
Train wrecks hide underneath your umbrella
Set the frame destiny
On this first name soliloquy
Tired symphonies play downward
Let me give the world to you my love
Let me give the world to you my love
Let me show you what I'm thinking of
Let me give the world to you my love
So far
Lovers form dead excuse
And blur the line with soul abuse
My lonesome lines just have no use around here
New skin may hold you in
But the old skin still turns us on
Flicker fades the nitrate dawn to wear
Let me give the world to you my love
Let me show you what I'm thinking of
Times are hard and we're the last in line
Cause in my grief I'd forgotten what was mine
No I wouldn't change a thing
No i, no
No I wouldn't change a thing about the way you are
The distance here, the speed so far
So far
Let me give the world to you my love

Home

We'll wander off through the dead of night
Cause wastelands of shattered souls
Warm by my firelight
I peer into the darkness alone
As the indian summer of my remembrance
Settles on my bones
Cracked and weary, I ask for direction home
Home, let the word spill from my mouth
Love, love is everything I want
I'm one of many more to come
Love, love is everything I want
Crossroads outside of town
The heartbroken faces charred
The city lights so far and dull
Turnin' left, I know it's time
With an urgent wind upon my rolling heels
To carry me along
My face so ghast
That I turn to ruins past and home
Home, let the word spill from my mouth
Love, love is everything I want
I'm one of many more to come
Love, love is everything I want
We'll wander off through the dead of night
Past terrors and broken homes
Wipe the sleep from your eyes
Of riverbanks and catacombs
Sleeping to the guillotine
Always lived this life alone
Lay down beneath the law
Cry out, I know it's time
Love is everything I want

White Spyder

Wander slow
And your kisses chase
What must I do
If only for your warm embrace
For all they take
Must you complicate
And every little spider
That crawled up inside her
Is waiting for my phone call
And now I remind her
Of every single liar
Living for the killing stall
White spider
Where will you crawl
White spider
The endless paths
Began to scan
I don't understand you
I am, I am
Know who I am
I'm sorry you had to
White spider
You gotta get away
To try to stay awake
You've gotta fix your gaze
So you're not afraid
You've gotta bide your time
Before you want science
You've gotta play the part
Before you fall apart
You've gotta walk through hell
Scream you're not around
You've gotta strip your skin
To let them tear at it
I'm gonna take a piece
For my own release
I'm gonna shift to speak
Fuck the enemy
I'm gonna chomp my teeth
Climb on out of me
I'm going on around
Without a sully sound
Wander slow
White spider
How did you know, yes
If only which way to go
My white spider
Cause now I'm reminded
Of every single fighter
That's waiting for just what she brings
And every little spider
That crawled up inside her
Who's waiting for the phone to ring
My white spider
Which way'd you walk
My white spider
Isn't all
I made this up
To make the scene
Beyond belief
I'm back on top
Just a cock
Out of your cream
I am the end
I shall not remain
Prying plaintiff
The end we skim
I cannot pretend
Each who collapse, yeah

How will you crawl
My white spider
Will it on

In My Body

Hold silent
You were my violence stuck
In my life
Just for the moment
And let me under you
So you can die
I was alive
I was alive
In my body
You'll never find me
You'll never pull me out
In my body
The lonely creatures
The lonely creatures scream
June's offcast
Left hiding, I form the screams
Burned alive
Wasted sunsets
Haunting my torment
Right through my clothes
In my body
You'll never find me
You'll never pull me out
I was alive
I was alive
In my body
You'll never find me
You'll never pull me out
In my body
The lonely creatures
The lonely creatures scream

If There Is a God

And if there is a God
I know he likes to rock
He likes his loud guitars
And his spiders from mars
If there is a God
I know she's watching me
She says she likes what he sees
But there's trouble on the breeze
Who are you this time?
Are you one of us, flying blind?
Cause I'm down here throwing stones
While you're so far from home
And if there is a God
You know they're on TV
They're the spies with bedroom eyes
That cower in our skies
Who are you this time?
Are you one of us, flying blind?
Cause we're down here throwing stones
While you're so far from home
And if there is a God
If there is a God

Here's to the Atom Bomb

Clung to the sweater from the day you were born
Never knew better, that's what you swore
Mother hugged you cause the walls were thin
In saturnine, sweetness, and ratio din
No boy could spell you out
In the grass at night
Beneath the stars
You grew right past the streets where you were raised
Sneakin' out early to a secret place
Like a hole in the wall
Like a hole in the wall
Into the bed you hang your sleep
Now watch your man as he sinks beneath
You cut out his heart and watch him die
That we can know you, and that you're alive
As the hole in the wall
You are the hole in the wall
No one can know your son
Amd kisses and noise
Now you belong to them all
Awake to the dawn and scratch your eyes
Alight the prayer candles that you remind to
Send you a boy that you could waste
A little piece of heaven to set you straight
Through the hole in the wall
You are the hole in the wall
No one could tell you why
The tape's full of hiss
And sons who cry

To the night of the dead and the wishing ghost
Beating on you to drain morose
Through the hole in the wall
We are the holes in the wall
We are the

Disk 1 - Rotten Apples

Untitled

Should I know what I'm missing, what's to stop, look and listen,
Feel love, to be in love, around.
Anyone can hold a promise, not everyone can feel honored,
To be in love, to feel love around.
Suddenly I'm giving speech, let me be, what I need,
If you're enough for me.

Many times while you sleep, I'm dreaming of what to keep,
You know your wish, hold it true, to slay the things that trouble you.
Suddenly I'm out of reach, listen here, feel me,
Just believe, just believe you'll see.
To feel love, to be in love, all around.

Hold the truth if you want it, if you don't, I will flaunt it,
To feel love, to be in love, all around.
When you're young you can promise anything that you wanted,
To be in love, to feel love, around.
Suddenly I'm learn to speak from my heart,
I will see, bring happiness, just happiness for you and me.

To feel love, to be in love, around, to be in love, to feel love, around,
To feel love, to be in love, around, to be in love, to feel love, around.

I know your wish, I hold it true (feel love all around),
To hide the things that trouble you (feel love all around).
Suddenly I'm out of reach (feel love all around),
Let me speak of my peace (feel love all around).
Draw from me what you need (feel love all around),
You'll never hate or hurry me (feel love all around).

Lucky 13

The same blood
I suppose
Breaking jars
I'm no good
As the prodigal son
And I know
That you're mesmerized
You had a vision, made these laws
and sanitized, are we above desires
I miss him so

You are so fucked
It has begun
Revolution crawls
All over you
I was asleep
You light up this sky
And scrape out your skull
Your lovely face
Will never be claimed thrice
It was so unlikely doom
Upon my wrists I bear the cross
My losses mount as I climb across the hole
of my own soul

I'll claim my prize
I don't exist
I am divine
A ghost with eyes

Because You Are

Because you are

I've got the trauma to stay
Because you are
I scar the stranger betray
All of my senses ashamed
I will deny all that I'm afraid
Lies will disguise
Rules of time and endgames

Because you are

I chew the rust off my face
Because you are
I wipe the stain off my haze
Because you are
I am released, born of age
Because you are
I stare inside empty faith

I will deny all that I'm afraid
Lies will disguise
Rules of time and endgames
Because you are

Rinse the scars off my skin
Because you are
I touch the scars of your skin
Because you are
I let the travel begin
Because you are
I let the travel begin
Because you are
I let the travel begin

Midnight people
Rushing for the downtown train
Watching, wasting away
Their hearts beat free
Cool frequency
And I don't what it is

The slow dawn
Seeking sigh
Oh so faint
I'm gonna run
The slow dawn
Await, it's blessed undone
Some birds on the run
And I'm not sure what it is
But I'm sure that I can give
Awaiting the slow dawn
Slow time moves, buying a servant
Teach your silent sleep
Slow dawn

Midnight people
Washing down here, wasting away
They're gonna run
The slow dawn
Await the slow dawn
Await the slow dawn
Await the slow dawn

My Mistake

We're so young
And we're so dumb
We don't register calculations
And if you dare
And should I care
I could destroy you
And take you there
As the spitfires begin their descent
And tragic, romantic ascent
My love is 100 percent
Come back to me, my mistake
Come back to me, my mistake
Come back to me, my mistake
Mistake, it was all my mistake
So suck me through
Your saliva screws
I can't help myself if I don't know
The flaws in you
That were equal to
The mysteries of almost new
I have said this so many, many times
I can't help you out of your mind
So don't judge me on time
Come back to me, my mistake
Come back to me, my mistake
Come back to me, my mistake
And if you pretend
Please try to offend everyone
We share the same monkey diseased
So give me my grape of your peace
And do what you want as you please
Come back to me, my mistake

Silent, sparrow
Secret, serpentine smile
Distant, crying child

You're my lost little love
You're my lost little one

Urgent, arrow
Arcane, echo
My, my, my have we thrown
Together apart and together again

We will scatter friends
Like the whistling wind
You can see me wave
Same, I'm the same

But if I did
And I meet you there
You'll hold my hand
Pretend you understand that
I'm just one man
Still a boy perhaps
Simple silent humble human-being

We will scatter friends
Like the whistling wind
You can see me wave
Same, I'm the same

And eiffel towers
And distant isles
And ocean miles
And mountain wilds
And film stars
And restless charge
Moving roaring
Soaring gone, gone, gone
And with built-in lion ears
I can hear you now

To fill the meetings
To strike me down

Yes, I am waiting
For your love
For your love

Radio waves of a dying sun
Radio speaks my soul alone
Forget my names, erase the page
And dinners draw the passengers
Yes, I am waiting
In silence throne
My blood of treason
My tears of home
No more a feeling
Than being cold
Of playing on
Yes, I am waiting
As I walk your street
Yes, I am waiting
As I ride your dreams
Yes, I am waiting
Inside your doubts
Inside your doubts
Just let me out
Just let me out

Winterlong

And if I fall
Into you all
Will my rain
Cease and dissolve?
Some come to harm
Others to grace
So let my friends fly
Under these wings

Were giving it up to the sun
Were giving it up to the moon
Were giving it up to the earth
Were giving it up from our own

Knowing theres nowhere to run
Knowing theres not much to lose
Sometimes it seems so long
Since you had a chance to refuse

We built a fire
Winterlong
Transformed new wire
Winterlong
I was the first one
I was the last one to be strong

And if I fall
Into you all
Will the silence
Shatter and stall?
Some feel movement
Others stand still
So let the moment
Become my will

Were giving it up to the sun
Were giving it up to the moon
Were giving it up to the earth
Were giving it up from our owns

Knowin theres nowhere to run
Knowin theres not much to lose
So why does it take so long
To find out who is who

We built a fire
Winterlong
Transformed new wire

I was the first one
I was the last one to be strong

Were giving it up to the sun
Were giving it up to the moon
Were giving it up to the earth
Were giving it up from your own

Soot and Stars

The words flow, decisions made
Idea's mine, but the inspiration not
Dreams of hangers on, dreams of getting well
Spells of ezmerelda, emeralds foretold
Splinters in the eye sentiments remain
Bones that never rest where we going to
It was never up to me and yet I pushed until it broke

I love the open road and all that it suggests
Wheel wagon dust weeds and infidelities and
Always for a love never question why
In a wooden house immoveable and silent and
Drinking strawberry wine forever lost in town
And thru the sleeping streets night bound and heavy
Wheels in the spoke still spoken for himself

Now my gates are high, my friends even higher
Forgotten in my mind, yet the sky still linger and
Cloud the blue skies, I'm jealous of you birds
Was the only truth in a world full of words?
Hear the prairie sound in a friend called near
The heart is pointed down but my spirit pointed up
His voice for siren of greek mythology

I pause with my pen I begin to defend
Every action taken, every moment sealed
When I was quick it coursed through open veins
The will to live the urgency to move
Behind a panel door sealing cherry stain
I play my guitar and live those lonesome notes

Like a dog that's down
In a corner just a sigh
Waiting to be called
Waiting to be yours
Ghosts of all my shame
Without purpose or will

I often speak of you but the you is always me
Cause when I speak of me it's me I ask of you
So let there be no truth just trickery in rhymes
Time the only thing waiting still as death

I hope for resolution pray one defining moment
Pause without restrain barren without child
A child is who I was a child is who I'll die
Soot in my hair
And stars in my hands

Up

Blissed and Gone

The sun has blessed
The rays are gone
And all the kids have left their tears and gone home

Sweet 17, sour 29
And I can't explain myself
What I'd hoped to find
You were all so kind
When I was near

And if you're still feeling down
Then maybe you need me around
To love and hold you
Don't say I hadn't told you so
Maybe you need me around

I had no luck
I had no shame
I had no cause, just 17 days of rain
And you in my eyes

Just one more song to slay this earth
And I can't explain myself
Just what it's worth
It was all I had, but not all I need
And I can't escape the fact that I still bleed

And if you're still feeling down
And if this seems way too loud
Then maybe you need me around

I had no voice
I had no drive
I had no choice
I've done my time
I had myself
Had my band
I had my love
Had no hand in watching it all fall apart

And if you're still feeling down
Then maybe you need me around
To lift and scold you
To send you crashing alright now
Maybe you need me around

Ava Adore

Czarina

Sippin' tea
Let the rivers pass me by
These dusty tears
Need no place to cry

I need no reason for the first time in my life
I just need to be on my way

I don't want for anything that I don't have
All I want is waiting for me there
For me there
With my czarina queen of all that I believe
Still born seasons cradle our affairs

I light a candle
My lover to protect
In sack cloth and ashes
My lover will descend

I need no reason for the first time in my life
I just need to be on my way

I don't want for anything that I don't have
All I want is waiting for me there
I don't want for anything that I don't have
All I want is waiting for me there
For me there

Hide behind your walls
I waste a day
If I want
All this and more are under me

I need no reason for the first time in my life
I just need to be on my way

I don't want for anything that I don't have
All I want is waiting for me there
I don't want for anything that I don't have
All I want is waiting for me there
For me there
For me there

Once In A While

Horses run
Once in a while for you

The shades will draw
Once in a while for you

Destiny will hide the sense of your time
Once in a while
Once in a while for you

The soldiers will fall
Once in a while for you

The shades will crawl
Once in a while for you

You'll take the walls
I will take the new ring

Once in a while
Once in a while it's you
Once in a while it's you

Once in a while
You'll make it on your own
You'll make it so alone
Feel so alone

You'll try to care
Once in a while for me
And I will be there
Once in a while
Once in a while for you

Thirty-Three

The Last Song

This is the last song
This is the last song I'll sing for you
This is the last song
This is the last song I can give you
The roaring city sleeps
Metal fingers clutching dirty sheets
And no one comes for free
In this place where the angels sleep
This is the last song
My eyes are open wonder to this
As you hold the secrets
I count the minutes off so perfectly
The shards of broken glass
Sing the strains of a sad old tune
We've made it at last
But what we had is lost inside our past
This is the last song
Could you find away across me
To forgive and forget me
To appease and relent me
To deceive and detect me
To understand and release me
To the dawn
This is the last song

The Aeroplane Flies High (Turns Left, Looks Right)

I really don't wanna look stupid when I'm sleeping
I never really liked sunny days
The black wings just reach out to me over a distance...
And I can feel the wind from the wings
I see the clouds, I feel the ocean with my feet, and I'm home again
It requires an ability to judge distance
The airplane flies high...turns left, looks right

Love is a sentimental heart
Life is a sentimental way
Spy the fragile heart so cursed
As he walks across this earth
I'm disconnected by your smile
Disconnect a million miles
And what you promised me
I hope will set you free
I'm disconnected by your smile

If I knew where I was going I would already be there
I wish I had more time
Judicious, beautiful, uh, demented, whatever
I've always been afraid to die, but I think I'm more afraid to live

And all I gave to you is lost
And all you took from me is lost
Black wings carry me so high
Up to meet you in the sky
I'm disconnected by your smile
Disconnect a million miles
And what you promised me
I hope will set you free
I'm disconnected by your smile
Wishing you were real to me
Wishing I could make believe
I'll take my secrets to the grave
Safely held beneath the waves
Always knew I couldn't save
Always knew I couldn't save you

[8:02] And in the heart I know you're there
And in my heart I know you care
And in my heart I know you don't

Transformer

A livewire moves slow
A transformer always knows
The score is four
Leaves you hanging on the floor
For more and less and more of the blame
And she's tired
And she's sick of the same old shit
It's just more of the same old same
I know she wants more and more and more to witness
To lay down and bear true
A cherry onion firefly
Tastes sweet and white
As you are blue
Knows just what she wants to do
With you below the silver skies
Don't hate her because she's undecided
And she's tired
And she's sick of the same old shit
It's just more of the same old same
I know she wants more and more and more to stomach
In honor of her youth
She's not sorry she's happy
Sorry she's happy
She's not sorry she's happy
Sorry she's happy as a turtle
She's a real live transformer

The Bells

Ooh the bells are ringing out
What a sound
Ooh the bells are ringing out
What a sound
And I'm in love
The joy of love
The coming of
Jesus
Jesus
Did you call my name
Never ever felt afraid
Did you hold onto
Did you make it thru
You
There's so much doubt in every heart
For all our faults we carry on
Jesus
Jesus I ran away
I got so scared
I made mistakes
Will I hold onto
Will I make it thru
Ooh the bells are ringing out
What a sound

My Blue Heaven

Day is ending
Words are wending
Back to the show ?
Each little nestling love
Night sheds falling
Love words calling
What makes the world go 'round
Nothing my love when whippoorwills call
The evening is nigh
I hum it to my blue heaven
I turn to the right
Turn the light
Turn to my blue heaven
You'll see a smiling face,
A fireplace,
A cozy room
A little nest
That's nestled where the roses bloom
Just molly and me
And baby makes three
We're happy in my blue heaven

Tonight, Tonight

Meladori Magpie

And on her doorstep
I saw that I was blind
I'd forsaken
What was mine

What had mattered
Mattered little now
We had shattered
Apart somehow

Ooh
I can't help but stay the same
I remain true to my name

Time to get up
And take the long walk home
For the first time
I go alone

Do you remember
When we first met?
Chasing down the alleyways
Behind my dad's

Ooh
I can't help but stay the same
I remain true to the name
Of lovers past
Good enough to lose
Good enough to choose you, too

Ooh
I can't help but stay the same
Ooh
I remain true to the name
Of lovers past
Good enough to lose
Good enough to choose you, too

Rotten Apples

Dirty your face
With longing and grace, God-given
Suffer her heart
And love her when your love goes unrequited

Where the cool winds blow
I must surely go
For my love calls me below to drag her
From the depths of my soul

When will I see her again?
The other side of friends
The darkened claws of death
The empty breath desire

Dirty your face
With longing and grace, God-given
Suffer her heart
And love her when your love goes unrequited

Restless in my speech
And ruthless in my teach
So vacant in my breach
I drive the dirt up her garden

Sorrow
She'll never listen again
No other lovers to bend
Just rotten apples to eat
Just letter yellowed distant scorn

Dirty your face
With longing and grace, God-given
Suffer her heart
And love her when your love goes unrequited

Life just fades away
Purity just begs
Dust to dust, we're wired into sadness

Jupiter's Lament

Gone, long gone
We can all be gone, gone, gone
Leave this world all wrong, wrong, wrong
Leave it far behind

And although my secret's gone I'll try to carry on
If I must, I'll get along without you

Gone, long gone
Leave this world all wrong, wrong, wrong
Beyond the pale beyond the dawn
Free these mortal bonds
No one knows I can't be wrong
So I'll sing the same old songs
I try to be strong for you

Why have you left me
Amongst the tall trees
I know I gave her all I have

And I tied her heart in ribbons
Tied her heart in ribbons
Tied her heart in ribbons and bows

And I'm gone
Oh yes, I'm gone
And I'm lost without you
I'm lost within you
And I'm gone, so gone, long gone

Medellia of the Gray Skies

You're an empty promise
You're an easy chair
You're the gods forces
Struck down somewhere

You're a secret noticed
You're a mystery sky
You're a wish floating
Up to the night

Medellia of my eyes
You're the emptiness of I
You're the reason that I write
And if you say you will
I would love you still

And if I could
I'd throw away this world
I'd dress you all in pearls
I'd give you what you wanted

You're all I notice
In a crowded room
Your vacant motives
Unmoved, revealed

Medellia of my eyes
You're the emptiness of I
You're the reason that I drive
And if you say you will
I would love you still

And if I just could
Be anything for you
Just anyone at all
Anything that mattered, washed out

You're the silly reasons
In a goldfish laugh
You're the ageless seasons
At rest, at last

Blank

I wish I was blank
I wish I was blank
I wish I could thank

And there'd be nothing to it
I wouldn't hem and haw

I wish I was blank
I wish I was blank
I wish I could thank
I wish I was blank

I wish I'd stand up straight
I wish I'd said things different
I wish I'd said nothing
Things would be so perfect
I wish myself to keep
I pray my soul to sleep
I wish myself away
I wish I was blank

Tonite Reprise

And the embers never fade in my city by the lake
The place where I was born
As the wind-up toys wore down
Muffling the sound of a life hidden underground
Believe, believe in me, believe
That you can change, that you're not stuck in vain
We're not the same we're different tonite
We'll crucify the insincere tonite
We'll make things right, we'll feel it all tonite
The impossible is possible tonite
Believe in me like I believe in you tonite

God

God knows I'm helpless to speak on my own behalf
God is as helpless as me caught in the negatives
We all just do as we please false transmissions
I hope god forgives me for my transgressions
It's what you want to know no consequences
It's what you need to fucking bleed
It's all too much god knows I'm helpless
God know I'm restless and weak and full of piss and vinegar
God knows we sow what we reap in the dirt of grandeur
When the darkness comes to me and fixes its gaze on me
God knows I'm helpless
It's what you want to know no consequences
It's what you need to fucking bleed
It's all too much god knows I'm helpless
You break you're back for what you can't have
You can't turn back

Mouths of Babes

So here we are true superstars we're so real from afar and now
Now you're with us now
And the mouths of babes sing revolution
And the mouths of babes scream disillusion
You can't break what's already broken
Cause from the mouths of babes comes nothing
The "dream" was a sham for saving what you can't and now
They're me but I'm not them I am you and you are me
It's in the ways I walk thru fire
It's in the ways of my desire
And when I said that you're no good
What I meant was I wish I could
Be there forever be young forever I wish you could be there
So now I bid farewell beyond the bounds of hell
And now you'll swear you knew us well
Well you can never tell
And the mouths of babes sing revolution
And the mouths of babes scream disillusion
You can't break what's already broken
Cause from the mouths of babes comes nothing

Marquis in Spades

And i'd love you to notice I'm devoted
To destroy for no one
Now it's that time again to take revenge
On all the debutantes and their friends
The bitter charlemanges so self absorbed
The bodily remains such a bore
Was I good enough to break you
And all I see is empty
Cause now I'm one of them so adored
The slink of impotence that money can afford
We know who you are and where you live
Is your innocence all that you can give
Was I good enough to break you
In the back of the car the angel dust was given back to the stars
And in this fall from grace
We'll meet again another time another place I've been down deep in you and me
Let's see where we can go
Angels, barbed wire fuck you, desire

And I stumbled onto you as you stumbled over me
And you say the fates were cruel for throwing us together
I always loved you so especially when you'd go
All the world must know that I loved you so
It's a pity we're apart it's a shame you broke my heart
But I've got a new girlfriend she looks alot like you dear
No one could ever do dear all the world must know
That I loved you so especially when you'd go
Especially when you'd go away and leave me here
Go away and leave me alone all the world must know

Ugly

I don't look in the mirror
I don't like what I see staring back at me
Everything is clearer
I'll never see what you see
It's not me
So beautiful and free
I'll never be what you need
Can't help at all
I was born so beautiful
But now I'm ugly
And I rot in my skin
As a piece of me dies everyday
I know I'm nothing
I know there's nothing I can say
To change
The judgment in their ways
I'll never be what you need
Can't help at all
My love was so beautiful
But now I'm ugly
Yeah...
I'm good enough, but I don't care
I'm good enough, but I'm not there
I'm good enough, but I don't care
The sun is out, but I'm not there
I can go anywhere I'm good enough, but I don't care somewhere
I can go anywhere the sun is out, but I'm not there somewhere
I can go anywhere I'm good enough somewhere
I can go anywhere I'm good enough somewhere
I don't look in the mirror
I don't like what I see staring back at me
Everything is clearer
I'll never see what you see
And I rot in my skin
As a piece of me dies everyday
I know I'm nothing
Because I'm ugly

I can't stop, I can't breathe, I can't think
I'm in love again
I don't need, I don't eat, I don't sleep
I'm in love again
Ooh, and every time I heard you breathe

Ooh, and every time I saw you bleed
I cried
Love is like a song
And if you sing
If you ever need me
I'll be there, and i-
I can't stop, can't breathe, can't think
I'm in love again
I don't need, I don't eat, I don't sleep
I'm in love again
Ooh, and every time that I'm with you
I'm alive
Ooh, and every time I think of you
There's a light
And I felt it, too
And my heart is a spring
Is a well, if you need
If you drink it for you
Then I'm leavin'
Every little part of me is a part of you
I can't stop, I can't breathe, I can't think
I'm in love again
I don't need, I don't eat, I don't sleep
I'm in love again

Cherry

Stay with me, I'll set you free
'cause I can tell you once were pretty
Rose so sad you've lost your petals
And lost the luster of your tattle tales
I need a love to help me find my way
I need a strength that I cannot betray
I need a word to say what I can't say
I need a lover, lover
I need a lover, lover
What are we waiting for?
What are we waiting for?
Time has lost its hold on me
Hatred sleeps inside my bones
In the stillness of cool air
All the boys have been left for dead 'cause we know where they fear to tread
The beautiful ones, the ones we'll remember
The precious ones, our greatest pretenders
I need a love to help me find my way
I need a strength that I cannot betray
I need a word to say what I can't say
I need a lover, lover
I need a lover, lover
And if you lose yourself
Could you take me, too?
Could you rest inside the sleep?
Stay with me, I'll set you free from you

Close your eyes
Until the sunlight dies
In your head a thousand stars
Through the darkness you can see love light
And if they steal your light
Your heart is still in mine

I want to believe in you and I heard you
Your song, you sing, a truth is no other
I want to believe in you, dear

Of someday...

There's a life I hide
But I try to disguise
And I could take you a million miles away

I want to believe in you and I heard you
Your song, you sing, a truth is no other
I want to believe in you, dear

On sunday I made amends
Of all my mistakes
May godspeed be with you

And I...
I want to believe in you and I heard you
Your song, you sing, a truth is no other
I want to believe in you and I heard you
Your song, you sing, a truth is no other
I want to believe in you and I heard you
Your song, you sing, a truth, a lover
I want to believe in you and I heard you

You should know that I love you
We should love like lovers do
And I can't help but fall for you
Ah honey, I'm just a fool
Now you know
Darling, I'll never be true
You see, for so long I was blue
I'm not the lonely one
And if I hurt, then you will, too
Ah honey, I always lose
Now you know
Lover, when will you?
I'm so afraid that no one cares
Lover, can't find you
I swear to god, don't leave me here
Now you know
Oh you know that it can't be
When no one else here really means (anything to me)
If you hurt inside
If you confide in me again
Since you ran away
Hold me now
Tell me how
Love is ours
Lover, when will you?
I'm so afraid that no one cares
Lover, can't find you
And no one knows what brings us here

Hold me now

A Night Like This

The Cure

Say goodbye on a night like this
If it's the last thing we ever do
You never looked as lost as this
Sometimes it doesn't even look like you
It goes dark
It goes darker still
Please stay
But I watch you like I'm made of stone
As you walk away
I'm coming to find you if it takes me all night
A witch hunt for another girl
For always and ever is always for you
Your trust
The most gorgeously stupid thing I ever cut in the world
So say hello on a day like today
Say it every time you move
The way that you look at me now
Makes me wish I was you
It goes deep
It goes deeper still
This touch
And the smile and the shake of your head
I'm coming to find you if it takes me all night
Can't stand here like this anymore
For always and ever is always for you
I want it to be perfect
Like before
Oh, I want to change it all
Oh, I want to change

Destination Unknown

Missing Persons

Life is so strange
When you don't know
How can you tell
Where you're going to
You can't be sure
Of any situation
Something could change
And then you won't know
You ask yourself
Where do we go from here?
It seems so all too near
Just as far beyond as I can see
I still don't know what this all means to me
I have nowhere to go
I don't know what to do
And I don't even know the time of day
I guess it doesn't matter anyway
Life is so strange
Destination unknown
When you don't know your destination
Something could change, it's unknown
And then you won't know
Destination unknown (and then I ask myself)
When will my time come?
Has it all been said and done?
I know I'll leave when it's my time to go ???? what I know
Life is so strange
Destination unknown
When you don't know your destination
Something could change, it's unknown
And then you won't know
Destination unknown
Life is so strange, life is so strange

Dreaming

Blondie

When I met you in the restaurant you could tell I was no debutante
You asked me what's my pleasure, a movie or a measure
I'll have a cup of tea and tell you of my dreaming
Dreaming is free
I don't want to live on charity
Pleasure's real, or is it fantasy?
Reel to reel is living rarity
People stop and stare at me
We just walk on by
We just keep on dreaming
Feet feet, walking a two mile
Meet meet, meet me at the turnstile
I never met him, I'll never forget him
Dream dream, even for a little while
Dream dream, filling up an idle hour
Fade away, radiate
I sit by and watch the river flow
I sit by and watch the traffic go
Imagine something of your very own,
Something you can have and hold
I'd build a road in gold just to have some dreaming
Dreaming is free

I'm taking a ride with my best friend
I hope he never lets me down again
I know where he's taking me
Taking me where I wanna be

Watching the world pass us by
Never want to come down
Never want to put my feet back down on the ground

He promised me I'm safe in his houses
As long as I remember who's wearing the trousers

The End is the Beginning is the End

The sewer belched me up
The heavens spit me out
From ethers tragic I am born again
And now I'm with you now
Inside your world of woe
To move in
Insides made
Of deadly
Pretence
Till the endtimes begin

Is it bright where you are
Have the people changed
Does it make you happy you're so sane
And in your darkest hour
My whole secret's fake
You can watch the world devoured in it's pain
Yeah

Climb my ribcage to
The replays run for you
Unhook my lights to peek behind the flesh
For I am crystal chrome
And I am shattered, no
And I am practicing
Of angels of death
To destroy the end

Is it bright where you are
Have the people changed
Does it make you happy you're so sane
And in your darkest hour
My whole secret's fake
You can watch the world devoured in it's pain

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

The zeppelins rain upon us
The guns of love disastrous
A shadow lies amongst you
To defy the future hell

Is it bright where you are
Have the people changed
Does it make you happy you're so sane
And in your darkest hour
My whole secret's fake
You can watch the world devoured in it's pain

Up

The Beginning is the End is the Beginning

Send a heartbeat to
The boy that cries through you
Relive the pictures that have come to pass
For now we stand alone
The world is lost and blown
And we are flesh and blood
The sinner grieves
With no more to hate
Is it bright where you are
Have the people changed
Does it make you happy you're so strange
And in your darkest hour
My whole secret's fake
We can watch the world devoured in it's hate

Delivered from the blast
A lesson learned at last
The pale princess of a palace cracked
And now the kingdom comes
Crashing down unknown
And I am master of a nothing place
Of recoil and race

Is it bright where you are
Have the people changed
Does it make you happy you're so strange
And in your darkest hour
My whole secret's fake
We can watch the world devoured in it's hate

Time has stopped before us
The sky cannot ignore us
No-one can separate us
For we are all that is left
The echo bounces off me
The shadow lies beside me
There's no more need to pretend
Cause now I can begin again

Is it bright where you are
Have the people changed
Does it make you happy you're so strange
And in your darkest hour
My whole secret's fake
We can watch the world devoured in it's hate

Strange
Strange
Strange

Eye

I lie, I wait
I stop, I hesitate
I am, I breathe
I meant I think I'll be

Is it any wonder I can't sleep?
All I have is all you gave to me
Is it any wonder I found peace
Through you?

Turn to the gates of heaven
To myself be damned
Turn away from eye
It's not enough
Just to touch
It's not enough

I taste, I love
I come, I bleed enough
I hate, I'm not
I was, I want too much

Is it any wonder I can't sleep?
All I have is all you gave to me
Is it any wonder I found peace
Through you?

Turn to the gates of heaven
To myself be damned
Turn away from eye
It's not enough

No Alternative

Glynis

Here's a name you cannot forget
Her name is Glynis, yes
And with these tears of respect
Conforms a sadness
For anyone who's ever lost
One who's dearest, and the love of a friend

On our worried knees
Given to all beliefs
Scarecrows and disease haunt us all
Ooh, bury your heads in the sand
Ooh, bury your heads

So have we stumbled from grace
Are we being punished for fate
My god is subtle and great
He can't be wounded
By the gossip and the hate of the frightened
Who took their paths on the sand, yeah

Fear that grips us all
Gives us an awful sound
Can't help anything but ourselves
Ooh, bury your head in the sand
Ooh, bury your head, yeah
Ooh, bury your head

Ooh, I believe in one love
Ooh, I believe in one love
Ooh, I believe in one love
Yeah, yeah

Drown

You've traveled very far Just to see you I'll come around, when I'm down
All of those yesterdays
Coming around

No matter where you are, I can still hear you when you dream
You traveled very far
You traveled far, like a star
And you are
All of those yesterdays
Coming around

Is it something someone said?
Was it something someone said?

Yesterday the sky was you
And I still feel the same
Nothing left for me to do
And I still feel the same

I wish, I wish I could fly
I wish, I wish I could lie
I will, I will try
I will, I will
Goodbye
