Lyrics:

Met you in your shadow dark Absinthe bar You shaved your head It left a scar We bunkered down Windowless room Our hateful sex I love, you lose You bathed me Laid me down clean sheets We took half of that blue pill each Our vacant dates Carnival shows That Ferris wheel Our highest low I should have believed you when you said you felt the rope around your neck Instead I believed you when you said that we were back to back And I've never been one to ask for a hand Never been one to take what was given Never seen love so cold and undressed Never lived life so lifeless Oh, my one and only Only leaves me lonely Only leaves me lonely Oh, if I could only Leave my one and only Read all of your movie scripts with murder scenes Familiar faces all I see My happy made you sad and sly Your honest made me beg for lies A temper tantrum's bloated world Staccato man, limber girl The rippling walls The paper moon The dial tone The dancers doomed And I should have believed you when you said you felt the rope around your throat Instead I believed you when you said you still had hope And I've never been one to ask for a hand Never been one to take what was given Never seen love so cold and undressed Never lived life so lifeless Oh, my one and only Only leaves me lonely Only leaves me lonely Oh, if I could only Leave my one and only Your creeping creature My bloodless heart You fill me up My shadow dark I love you like I love myself Like no one, like nobody else I should have believed you when you said you felt the rope around your neck Instead I believed you when you said that we were back to back Now I've never been one to ask for a hand Never been one to take what was given Never seen love so cold and undressed Never lived life so lifeless Oh, my one and only Only leaves me lonely Only leaves me lonely Oh, if I could only Leave my one and only

Lyrics:

Morning after nauseous half disasters The calm is not so quiet in my head It says you drink too much You're not in love with anyone You'll never say the things you never said Oh it all seems really simple in a picture Somebody you don't know always works hard And you're always just nursing some hangover Guilt tripping over homeless works of art I've been lost, lost, lost brother I've been blinded by the sun and the father I've got more, more, more than I can shoulder But I'll be fine, when I find my way home Morning after nauseous half disasters And I swear I'll get my act together soon Cause this is not at all what I imagined, no When I thought of all the things that I might do Oh it all seems really simple when you're little Naivety is such a fuzzy friend I'm not saying I'm wrecked or I am ruined no I just mistook the beginning for the end And I got lost, lost, lost brother I got blinded by the sun and the father I've got more, more, more than I can shoulder But I'll be fine, when I find my way home Look, sometimes love is the reflection of a building in the water On a night when everybody stays at home And sometimes love's a puddled puzzle piece, obsolete and soggy That becomes a whole new picture on its own So we can bitch about how fast the world is spinning Or we can use the orbit for a whole new view I know love will be the answer to my wandering Maybe I got lost so I could find you I think I got lost so I could find you So when you're lost lost lost brother When you fly too close to the sun and the father When the world is more than you can shoulder You come and find me, you can call me home Come and find me, you can call me home Come and find me, call me home

Lyrics:

Here I come, into the sun, into the smoke Into the glamour, into the vanity, into the stammer My path is here, my road is clear, which one to take I don’t know much, don’t have the touch, but all I know Chorus Me and Rich are going to run this town Me and Rich are going to run this town Puerto Rican star playin’ Puerto Rican star playin’ Puerto Rican star playin’ now Now I’m here, far from the clear, into the joke Into the diamonds, into the rough, into the fluff When all the money’s gone, number of friends is none Just left with silicone Chorus Me and Rich are going to run this town Me and Rich are going to run this town Puerto Rican star playin’ Puerto Rican star playin’ Puerto Rican star playin’ now Bridge Big lips, fake tits the glamorous Big lips, fake tits the glamorous Big lips, fake tits the glamorous Big lips, fake tits the glamorous

Lyrics:

Come to the garden that awaits you Goin' nowhere fast we'll be at nowhere soon Spiral eyes with walk in room Invite me and I'll invite you Follow the vine The silver line And make the moon shine Hold your magnifying glass Cheshire cat And make the moon shine Paisley skies and an electric breeze Lover look up let your balance be free Run baby run stay lost with me To the cup of love that says drink me Follow the vine The silver line And make the moon shine Hold your magnifying glass Cheshire cat And make the moon shine Ooooh Follow the vine The silver line And make the moon shine Hold your magnifying glass Cheshire cat And make the moon shine

Lyrics:

I thought I was in control when I left you wanting more And I know, you’ve heard this song a million times or more To be replaced with such pace just another swing on the monkey bar To be replaced with such pace just another swing on the monkey bar Playing the victim is something you have always done With no regard to the truth, or the bullshit you have run Double standards were enforced but somehow you could never see Double standards were enforced but somehow you could never see Chorus Don’t say it isn’t what it is, I know you’re moving on with him I thought we could still be friends, but now you’re swingin’ on again So now we’ve reached this point where it’s forced and just not us The silver that surrounds my hands has no choice but to rust No one said it would be easy and my god they were not wrong No one said it would be easy and my god they were not wrong Chorus Don’t say it isn’t what it is, I know you’re moving on with him I thought we could still be friends, but now you’re swingin’ on again Bridge Don’t say that I abandoned you, I think you’re insecure Don’t say you don’t need anyone, I think you’re insecure Don’t say you can do this by yourself, I think you’re insecure Don’t say that he even pays your rent, I think you’re insecure

Lyrics:

Well your mama always worried And she passed it on to you You were born in the South With a taste in your mouth Of Pacific Ocean blue You were always somethin’ special I could hear it when you sing But the way that you paused Between your words when you called Had a different kind of sting Was I not enough For your holy love? But the scars of lust My soul will be yours soon I’m growin’ up Well I always loved the present But you loved the memories And the future is near But as long as you’re here I’ll love as much as you’ll give me If I slept well in the jungle I would drown into the sea And float to the sand With my hand in your hand And the love I kept for me

Lyrics:

I don't have no sympathy girl And that's the last you're giving, I'm sure All the time I'm trying to be the man you want me to But all I ever get from you is silence, silence I'm on fire (out of control) I'm on fire (out of control) I'm on fire, and out of control Everyone needs someone to please But everything I've tried disagrees All I ever ask from her: a kiss for luck and loving, sure If I get mine then you get yours Let's try this, try this I'm on fire (out of control) I'm on fire (out of control) I'm on fire, and out of control Stop me now, somebody stop me now Stop me now, don't stop me now, d-d-d-don't s-s-st-st-stop me now! I'm on fire (out of control) Well I'm on fire (out of control) Yeah I'm on fire and out of control

Lyrics:

Lyrics:

I think you're sick, and the silent treatment Isn't clearing up the illness you've conceived I had to leave, you know just what you've done And keep doing The sleeping in circles, baby My God how dizzy you must be Well I saw the devil in you And I heard him too In the reasons that you're calling me Just set me free, don't know If I'm asking that Of you or me I know that we don't have to talk But I just don't know why I do When all I hear is the backdrop of The holes in which your lungs and liver dwell Which of my friends you're eying down In some strange attempt at sick revenge to try and make me see what I've been missing And it just might work

Lyrics:

Today my ... don’t bother me again I’ll take truth... in hot suffering don’t waste your time on me and let me go without a doubt And I’ll take my chance under the sun Today my ... oh don’t you bother me no more I won’t believe you and I... despite you look out ... Let me go without a... And I’ll take my chance under the sun And I’ll face the stone And I’ll face the stone ... Yeah yeah Let me go without a ... And I’ll... And I’m gonna face the stone And I’ll face the stone

Lyrics:

I go out walking after midnight Out in the moonlight just like we used to do I'm always walking after midnight, After midnight searching for you I walk for miles along the highway Well, that's just my way of saying, I love you I'm always walking, always walking After midnight searching for you See a weeping willow crying on her pillow Maybe she's crying for me And as the skies turn gloomy winds whisper to me I'm lonesome I’m lonesome as I can be I go out walking after midnight Out in the moonlight, just hoping you may be Somewhere walking, somewhere walking After midnight searching for me

Lyrics:

Story opens in a time of war Fane promise in a raging storm Sky rumbled and the rain did pour As it had on the day before She was born in a time of doubt Cloud broke and the sun shown down News traveled at the speed of sound Lay sleeping in a ward downtown And I feel so much better now And I feel so much better now With you around She was born in an age of fear Dust settled and the truth came clear Farther lifted from the atmosphere And all the worries seemed to disappear And I feel so much better now Nah nah nah nah nah nah Cause you’re around Oh around Around

Lyrics:

Verse 1: Say goodbye, cause I'm going to try to leave you, I don't need you anymore, why should I, waste my time in a situation, when you didn't have the patience, to give me all the things that I needed from you, hangin' on to whats left of the pieces that I have, I'm falling and its gonna be real bad, I'm living in a fantasy that doesn't exist in the world Chorus 1: We better slow this down, before someone gets hurt, I like having you around, but that don't mean that this is gonna work, I want to believe that things will get better, but I already know that its never gonna be the same again, your more than just friend to me Verse 1 repeat: Say goodbye, cause I'm going to try to leave you, I don't need you anymore, why should I, waste my time in a situation, when you didn't have the patience, to give me all the things that I needed from you, hangin' on to whats left of the pieces that I have, I'm falling and its gonna be real bad, I'm living in a fantasy that doesn't exist in the world Interlude: la la la, la la la, la la la, nothings connecting and its affecting me, I'm living in a fantasy that doesn't exist in the world repeat Chorus: We better slow this down, before someone gets hurt, I like having you around, but that don't mean that this is gonna work, I want to believe that things will get better, but I already know that its never gonna be the same again, your more than just friend to me

Lyrics:

Harvest moon My harvest moon (Skies that could swallow you whole) Bright red moon My harvest moon (Oceans are calling you home) Cover me in the thin silver moon (I can see your skinny body falling from the sky) In the stark stunning lights so very clear (I can see your skinny body falling from the sky) There's good in everyone Now bring her to me, bring her to me Elenor, Elenor, Elenor, Elenor with the golden hair Elenor, Elenor, Elenor, Elenor In the summertime when the air is dry We will meet Elenor, Elenor, Elenor, Elenor with the golden hair repeat 7x (I can see your skinny body falling from the sky) In the summertime when the air is dry We will meet You will meet (Hey-ah, hey-ah, hey I saw a sight) Bring her to me, bring her to me

Lyrics:

I gotta move on, yeah I gotta move on now If it's truth you share, or if it's truth you dare I gotta get on, I gotta turn on now I gotta get on and on and on and on and on And this sticky situation's got me out of control And I got that feel that that feeling ain't right now And I got that notion when you turn off the lights now babe Check out my photograph ... She's looking at me, oh she's looking at me I just can't get her body out of my head and I just can't get her soul on out of my bed I got that sneaky suspicion you'll come around here I got that sneaky suspicion you'll come around here That's why I'm already on my way Yeah I'm on my way down the road down the road Yeah I'm on my way down the road down the road And I got that feel that that feeling ain't right now And I got that notion when you turn off the lights now babe Check out my photograph ... She's looking at me, oh she's looking at me (REPEATED)

Lyrics:

These flowers aren’t for you. Who told you that they are? I hardly know your name; I'm sure we met at some bar Why do we always say, “Look the other way”? I promise you today That I won’t look away Before you know I'm gone. When my heart stops, Break out the bottle. Stick the needle in my throat, Stick the needle in my foot. When my heart stops, Break out the bottle. Toss it back, give me mouth to mouth. Toss it back, give me mouth to mouth. These flowers aren’t for you. Who told you that they are? I hardly know your name; I'm sure we met at some bar. When my heart stops Break out the bottle. Stick the needle in my throat, Stick the needle in my foot. When my heart stops, Break out the bottle. Toss it back, give me mouth to mouth. Toss it back, give me mouth to mouth

Lyrics:

I'm beginning to think that your love is a dream that any moment I'll awake And you'll be gone from me though I worry I will not fear it's those who break hearts that aren't worthy of my tears because you see that no woman deserves the kind of love that you bring and though you're here with me I'm afraid someday that you might leave cause your love is a dream Oh you're a dream Now my mother oh she taught me well when she said that our hearts are not moved by strings though I've loved and I've lost oh and have cried for them all her truth has stayed with me when she said That no man will deserve the kind of love that you'll bring And the one you choose won't make you cry but lift your head up and want to sing cause that love is a dream oh oh you're a dream

Lyrics:

Take precious things away, With clouds and tape, Strike up the bell to play, And walk down to the lake, Hold this ghost, Sweet unknown, Hold this ghost, Feels like home, Pack all your words in case, We take them all away, Find us the darkest space, In time can't quite taste, Hold this ghost, Feels like home, Hold this ghost, Sweet unknown...

Lyrics:

Long legs, tired brain and I don’t feel no pain - All eyes on false prizes and the night cast in disguises. And we sway like politicians, load our guns with strange ammunition - Raise our hands and tip our glasses, to the starlit, crystalline masses.

Lyrics:

For ten long years she was my bride. 'Round her neck, she wore my ring. I used to fix her meals for her, and listen when she'd sing. One evening when we were sleeping, nary a foot apart, when I awoke my heart was broke because her's would not start. I held her mouth to mouth. We lay mouth to mouth. My Lord, I felt so lonesome, when I lowered her down. I dug a little hole for her, beneath the bamboo shoots. And I wrapped her up in a bathroom towel and laid her beside the roots. I spoke the good Lord's prayer for her, I stroked her golden hair. Then I scooped her up from beneath the ground 'cuz I couldn't see her there. I held her mouth to mouth. We lay mouth to mouth. My Lord, I felt so lonesome, when I lowered her down. I held her mouth to mouth. We lay mouth to mouth. My Lord, I felt so lonesome, as I lowered her down. I held her mouth to mouth. We lay mouth to mouth. My Lord, I felt so lonesome, as I lowered her down.

Lyrics:

Her face is the one I know, but I can't find a name to call. Her teeth sink into my throat, like the first token of hello. You treat me as if I'd hoped we'd remain intertwined by woe. For keeps even if I burn out bright by tomorrow. No trace of the life I led. No trace of the love I left. No trace of anyone at all. Now I can't tread the water. So don't try me, 'cuz you'll wind up cross. And don't slug another fight tonight. Just tip-toe around the war we don't speak.

Lyrics:

We had a house out in the 'burbs I made my way up through the firm Kept the yard nice and pristine and picture perfect so it seemed Our welcome matte laid on the floor we hung a wreath up on the door but then that letter came unwarned now perfect isn't very perfect anymore We packed our things up in the car I never shook so very hard searched the sky for signs of sun and life had quickly come undone My wife was crying softly and the tear stained letter in her hand cut us both down to the core now perfect isn't very perfect No, perfect isn't quite the word for it Perfect isn't very perfect Anymore...
