Walking alone tonight
Cause I've only got room for two.
Me and my burdened black heart
It's all we know how to do.

Yet I look for a bigger bang
Than the kind I continually see.
Sick of all this inertia.
Oh, won't you mend me?

Lover, can you help me?
I'm a child lost in the woods.
A black heart pollutes me
And I think

You're a mountain
That I'd like to climb.
Not to conquer,
But to share in the view.

Pulled by a false inertia.
Pushed out by circumstance.
Pistol firing at my feet
That's coercing me to dance.

Yet I look for a bigger bang
Than the kind I am sorry to know.
Here I am, first foot of the climb
Watch me go

Lover, can you help me?
I'm a child lost in the woods.
A lit path eludes me
And I think

You're a mountain
That I'd like to climb
Not to conquer,
But to share in the view.
You're a bonfire .
And I'm gathered 'round you.
Set this old black heart inertia aflame.

Send it away.

You're a mountain
That I'd like to climb
Not to conquer,
But to share in the view.
You're a bonfire
And I'm gathered 'round you.
Set this old black heart inertia aflame.

Set it aflame
Send it away

Sometimes I feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear
And I can’t help but ask myself how much I'll let the fear take the wheel and steer
It's driven me before, and it seems to have a vague haunting mass appeal.
But lately I'm
beginning to find that I should be the one behind the wheel
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes yeah
Whatever tomorrow brings,
I'll be there, I'll be there
So if I decide to waiver my chance to be one of the hive
Will I choose water over wine and hold my own and drive?, oh oh
It's driven me before, it seems to be the way
That everyone else get around
But lately, I'm beginning to find that when I drive myself, my light is found
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes yeah
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there, I'll be there
Would you choose water over wine
Hold the wheel and drive
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes yeah
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there, I'll be there

I hear you on the radio
You permeate my screen, its' unkind but
If I met you in a scissor fight
I'd cut off both your wings on principle alone
On principle alone

Hey megalomaniac
You're no Jesus
Yeah, you're no fucking Elvis
Wash your hands clean of yourself baby
And just step down, step down, step down

If I were your appendages
I'd hold open your eyes
So you would see
That all of us are heaven sent
There was never meant to be only one
To be only one

Hey megalomaniac
You're no Jesus
Yeah, you're no fucking Elvis
Wash your hands clean of yourself baby
And just step down, step down, step down

Step down
Step down
Oh step down

Yeah
You're no Jesus
You're no Elvis
You're no Jesus
You're no Jesus
You're no Elvis
You're no answer

Step down, step down, step down
Step down

Hey megalomaniac
You're no Jesus
Yeah, you're no fucking Elvis
Wash your hands clean of yourself baby
And just step down, step down, step down

A cloud hangs over this city by the sea
I watch the ships pass and wonder if she might be
Out there and sober as well from loneliness
Please do persist
Girl, it's time we met and made a mess

I picture your face at the back of my eyes
A fire in the attic
A proof of the prize
Anna-Molly

A cloud hangs over and mutes my happiness
A thousand ships couldn't sail me back from distress
Wish you were here
I'm a wounded satellite
I need you now
Put me back together
Make me right

I picture your face at the back of my eyes
A fire in the attic
A proof of the prize
Anna-Molly

Wait
There is a light
There is a fire
Illuminated attic
Fate, or something better?
I could care less
Just stay with me a while
Wait
There is a light
There is a fire

Fate, or something better?
I could care less
Just stay with me a while
De-fragmenting the attic
I picture your face at the back of my eyes
A fire in the attic
A proof of the prize
Anna-Molly

I'm calling your name up into the air
Not one of the others could ever compare
Anna-Molly

Tonight we drink to youth
And holding fast to truth
(I don't want to lose what I had as a boy)
My heart still has a beat
(But love is now a feat as common as a cold day in L.A.)
Sometimes when I'm alone I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing?

Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt and it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
'Cause without love I won't survive

I'm fettered and abused
I stand naked and accused
Should I surface this one man submarine?
I only want the truth
So tonight we drink to youth
(I'll never lose what I had as a boy)
Sometimes when I'm alone I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing?

Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt and it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
'Cause without love I won't survive

I dig my toes into the sand
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind
Pretend that I am weightless
And in this moment I am happy .happy

I wish you were here

I lay my head onto the sand
The sky resembles a backlit canopy with holes punched in it
I'm counting UFO's, I signal them with my lighter
And in this moment I am happy. happy

I wish you were here

The world's a roller coaster
And I am not strapped in
Maybe I should hold with care
But my hands are busy in the air
I wish you were here.
I wish you were here
I wish you were
I wish you were here

Bat your eyes girl.
Be otherworldly.
Count your blessings.
Seduce a stranger.
What's so wrong with being happy?
Kudos to those who see through sickness...yeah

Over and over and over and over...

She woke in the morning.
She knew that her life had passed her by
She called out a warning.
Don't ever let life pass you by.

I suggest we
Learn to love ourselves,
Before its made illegal
When will we learn, When will we change
Just in time to see it all fall down

Those left standing will make millions
Writing books on the way it should have been

She woke in the morning.
She knew that her life had passed her by
She called out a warning.
Don't ever let life pass you by.

Floating in this cosmic Jacuzzi
We are like frogs oblivious
To the water starting to boil,
No one flinches and we all float face down

She woke in the morning.
She knew that her life had passed her by
She called out a warning.
Don't ever let life pass you by.
Pass you by.

I've seen a place not far away
eet me in outerspace
WE could spend the night;
watch the earth come up.
I've grown tired of that place;
won't you come with me?
WE could start again
How do you do it?
Make me feel like I do.
How do you do it?
It's better than I ever knew
Meet me in outerspace
I will hold you close, If your afraid of heights
I need you to see this place, It might be the only way
That I can show you how,
it feels to be inside of you
How do you it?
Make me feel like I do
How do you do it?
Its better than I ever knew
How do you do it?
Make me feel like I do Do oh oh oh oh oh
You are stellar
You are stellar
How do you it?
Make me feel like I do
How do you do it?
Its better than I ever knew
How do you do it?
Make me feel like I do
How do you do it?
Make me feel like I do, Yeah.

Take a bow
Pack on powder
Wash 'em out with buzzing lights
Pay an audience to care
"Impress me" personality

Still and transfixed
The electric sheep are dreaming of your face
Enjoy you from the chemical
Comfort of America

Come one, come all
Into 1984
Yeah, three, two, one
Lights, camera, transaction

Quick, your time is almost up
Make all forget that they're the moth
Edging in towards the flame
Burn into obscurity

Still and transfixed
The electric sheep are dreaming up your fate
And judge you from the card castle
Comfort of America

Come one, come all
Into 1984
Yeah, three, two, one
Lights, camera, transaction

Your foundation is canyoning
Fault lines should be worn with pride
I hate to say it but
You're so much more
You're so much more
Endearing with the sound turned off

Pardon me while I burst
Pardon me while I burst
A decade ago, I never thought I would be.
A twenty three on the verge of spontaneous combustion Woe-is-me.
But I guess that it comes with the territory;
An ominous landscape of never-ending calamity.
I need you to hear. I need you to see.
That I have had all I can take and exploding seems like a definite possibility
To me
So Pardon me while I burst into flames.
I've had enough of the world, and its people's mindless games
So Pardon me while I burn, and rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me. I'll never be the same.
Not, two days ago I was having a look in a book
And I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees
I said I can relate
Cause lately I've been thinking of combustication as a welcomed vacation from.
The burdens of the planet earth, like gravity, hypocrisy,
and the perils of being in 3-D...
And thinking so much differently.
So pardon me while I burst into flames.
I've had enough of the world, and it's people's mindless games
So pardon me while I burn, and rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me. I'll never be the same.
Never be the same...yeah.
So pardon me while I burst into flames. Pardon me, pardon me, pardon me.
So pardon me while I burst into flames.
I've had enough of the world, and it's people's mindless games
So pardon me while I burn, and rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me. I'll never be the same. Pardon me, never be the same. Yeah

We all have a weakness
But some of ours are easier to identify
Look me in the eye and ask for forgiveness
We'll make a pact to never speak that word again
Yes, you are my friend

We all have something that digs us
At least we dig each other
So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you'll count on the me from yesterday
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering the better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone

We all have a sickness
That cleverly attaches and multiplies
No matter how hard we try

We all have something that digs us
At least we dig each other
So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you'll act as a clever medicine
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering the better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone

You and I are like oil and water
And we've been trying
Trying to mix it up
We've been dancing on a volcano
And we've been crying
Crying over blackened souls

Babe, this wouldn't be the first time
It will not be the last time
There is no parasol that could shelter this weather

I been smiling with anchors on my shoulders
But I've been dying
Dying to let them go

Babe, this wouldn't be the first time
It will not be the last time
There is no parasol that could shelter this weather
Babe, this wouldn't be the first time
It will not be the last time
We were trying to believe everything would get better

We been lying to each other
Hey Babe, just call it
Call it what it is
Oil and water!

Better than watching Gellar bending silver spoons
Better than witnessing newborn nebulaes in bloom
She who see's from up high smiles and surely sings
Prospective pries your once weighty eyes and it gives you wings

I haven’t felt the way, I feel today
In so long it’s hard for me to specify
I’m beginning to notice
How much this feels like a waking limb
Pins and needles, nice to know you
Good-bye, Nice to Know You

Deeper than the deepest Coustou would ever go
Higher than the heights of what we often think we know
Blessed that she who clearly sees the wood for the trees
To obtain a birds eye is to turn a blizzard to a breeze

I haven’t felt the way, I feel today
In so long it’s hard for me to specify
I’m beginning to notice
How much this feels like a waking limb
Pins and needles, nice to know you
Good-bye, Nice to Know You
To know..You

So could it be that it had been there all along?

I haven’t felt the way, I feel today
In so long it’s hard for me to specify
I’m beginning to notice
How much this feels like a waking limb
Pins and needles, nice to know you
Good-bye, Nice to Know You
To know..You

A midnight swim
Is what I'm needing
A careless whim
A fast, full feeding

I take to the deep
When the last sentinel's asleep
Gotta break out and find
What the day left behind

So into blue
Begin an ark
Luminous you
Truant spark

I take to the deep
When the last sentinel's asleep
Gotta break out and find
What the day left behind


Water and salt
Secrets like new
Here I exalt
A midnight swim

I take to the deep
When the last sentinel's asleep
Gotta break out and find
What the day left behind

I am one big walking chemical reaction
A buzzing hive of cell synapsis and nacent self perception

Isn't it disdainful and curious
That both of us think we know everything

We both have brains,
We both have eyes
(Neither of us can see)
We both have pains,
We both have lies
(Neither of us can see)
One in the same, two of a kind
And neither of us can see

I am just a blinking, neon roadside attraction
I sow future wrinkles and I'm told I'm untapped potential

Isn't it disdainful and curious
That both of us think we know everything

We both have brains,
We both have eyes
(Neither of us can see)
We both have pains,
We both have lies
(Neither of us can see)
One in the same, two of a kind
And neither of us can see

I am one big, fleeting errant contradiction
It's so good to meet you
We are one in the same

Isn't it disdainful and curious
That both of us think we know everything

We both have brains,
We both have eyes
(Neither of us can see)
We both have pains,
We both have lies
(Neither of us can see)
One in the same, two of a kind
And neither of us can see

The hardest thing is rendering a moment moving too fast to endure
But you abide and smile wide cause I want to remember this for sure
You can give me guns and politics and I'll just make a mess of it, ya know
Give me all the sustinance and the wiser, wider part of me will show

A picture says with sight
what we can't say with words
But you've been walking eyes to feet in dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive
The camera lens is opening, the wider angle's yours

Yeah every empty one of us have methods to quell the madness of this pace
But yours have led and running south like dollar store mascara down your
face
You could take that wait and all that fuss so now just get the best of us,
ya know
Give me love not suicide and the wise, wider part of me will show

A picture says with sight
what we can't say with words
But you've been walking eyes to feet in dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive
The camera lens is opening, the wider angle's yours

Look alive
Smile
Smile and look alive
Smile
Smile and look alive

A picture says with sight
what we can't say with words
But you've been walking eyes to feet in dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive...

A picture says with sight
what we can't say with words
But you've been walking eyes to feet in dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive
The camera lens is opening, the wider angle's yours

Look alive
Smile
Smile and look alive
Yeah, smile and look alive

The Future is on Fire
Of a dying breed.
Don't understate our relevance,
We're the eyes and the Walls
And we witness the Vultures feed.

Yeah!

(Chorus)

(Ohhhh)

Stay wide awake.
Stay wide awake.Yeah!

(Ohhhh)

Make haste 'cause predators precede.

(Ohhhh)

Stay wide awake.
Stay wide awake.Yeah!

(Ohhhh)

While all the Vultures feed.

Like angles in a sphere,
Of our own design.
No more perpetual innocence.
With words we make shapes,
And our angles can align.

Yeahhh

And our appetite's careless and menacing.
It humbles me...
We breath softly as like the predator?
Such is a sight to see.

(Chorus 2x)

Stay wide awake,
While all the vultures feed (x4)

In my fantasy I'm a pantomime
I'll just move my hands and everyone sees what I mean
Words are too messy
And its way past time
To hand in my mouth

Paint my face white and try to
Reinvent the sea
One wave at a time
Speak without my voice and see the world by candlelight

I aint afraid to let it out
Im unafraid to take that fall
But I have found beyond all doubt
We say more by saying nothing at all

In my fantasy no such thing as time
Minutes bleed into days
Avant garde art
Show me your heresy
And I'll show you mine
We only speak in pantomimes on this carpet ride

I aint afraid to let it out
I'm unafraid to take that fall
But I have found beyond all doubt
We say more by saying nothing at all

In my fantasy you look good entwined
In my hair and skin and spit and sweat and spilled red wine
You're my deep secret
Im your pantomime
I'll just move my hands
I promise you'll see what I mean

I met the day
Feeling cheaper than usual
I guess you could say that I'm on sale
So take what you can while you can
Shop now
I could snap at any moment
And I might feel more expensive
Oohhh

Chorus:
I don't owe anything to you
I don't owe anything to you
You don't you know me half as well as you think you do
I don't owe anything
Anything to you

I met the mirror
And hanging from my ear
And in that moment I went unfazed
So take what you can while you can
I could snap at any moment and remember
I was not born to be sold

Chorus

Where did I park my car?
If I found it, I would drive so far... from here
The city streets are dim, and in my hands I'm tempted once again to give in
I'm having trouble seeing,
I'm punch drunk and I need to find a way back home it'll be a miracle of human rights
I will survive
On this island I am stuck, could you correct my crooked luck?
I'm on the road, my thumb is out
I'm hitching home, tonight I am without... a name
Where was it that I lived, never mind just take me with you and forgive
A lack of information, I'm punch drunk and I need to find a way back home it'll be a miracle of human rights
I will survive, on this island I am stuck, could you correct my crooked luck
Tonight, I will survive, tonight I wander and I roam, just looking for my way back home - tonight!
The sun is coming up,
I think I've had my fill
Wait, who the fuck are you?
Where did I park my car?
Please forgive my lack of information,
I'm punch drunk and I need to find a way back home it'll be a miracle
I'm having trouble seeing,
I'm punch drunk, and I need to find a way back home, it'll be a miracle of human rights
I will survive, on this island I am stuck, could you correct my crooked luck - tonight!
I will survive, tonight I wander and I roam, just looking for a way back home
Standing, tonight
Standing, tonight...
On this island, I am stuck, could you correct my crooked luck
Tonight I wander and I roam, just looking for a way back home, tonight

Could you move in slow motion?
Everthing goes by so fast,
Just slow down a little,
Save the best part for last,

You speak in riddles,
Your intentions turn me old,
I'm yours forever,
Will you love me when I'm gone?

When I'm gone,
You're an undiscovered!
(When I'm gone,)
Over walls we've trampled!
(When I'm gone,)
It's you I admire!
(When I'm gone,)
My living example...

oh,
Your eyes are an undi-
scovered ocean far away,
Any minute now keeping,
Both poets and priests at bay,

eh, don't get ahead of me, could we,
Just this once see eye to eye?
Could you want perhaps me?
Ask me how it feels to vie?

To vie,
You're an undiscovered!
(To vie,)
Over walls we've trampled!
(To vie,)
It's you I admire!
(To vie,)
My living example...

It's a photograph discovered,
A decade after,
It's a cannon-blast disguised as a, firecracker,
It's enough to bring a brick wall,
To its knees,
And sing,
Please, oooo...

Could you move in slow motion?
Everything goes by so fast,
Just slow down a little,
Save the best part for last,

For last,
You're an undiscovered!
(For last,)
Over walls we've trampled!
(For last,)
It's you I admire!
(For last,)
My living example!
My living example,

It's you I admire!
My living example...

She was a new mini-beauty queen
Money drugs magazines
That didn't do nothing
Nah didn't do nothing

They gave her diamonds, shiny boys
City speak, every joy
That didn't do nothing
No nothing for her

You can lead a horse to water
But you can't expect it to drink
Now ain't that something, now
ain't that something
Yeah when the world is at your gate
That won't satiate
Why are you crying
If you work for nothing at all?

Don't be a fly in my martini, baby come on down
That roof is high and I'm not climbing tonight
Come down and I'll give you
something (hey!) to cry about

Fast cars, (putcha in) bars
Trial and it drown in the scars
It won't do nothing, it won't do nothing
Even the best frame won't change
Your wet paint and you choose the
mona lisa, the mona lisa
you've got to dry your eyes baby
I know it's your party and you
Cry if you want, cry if you want to
Yeah when the world is at your gate
And that don't fill your plate
Why are you crying?
If you work for nothing at all

[x3]
don't be a fly in my martini, baby come on down
That roof is high and I'm not climbing tonight
Come down and I'll give you
something (hey!) to cry about

A certain shade of green,
tell me, is that what you need?
All signs around say move ahead.
Could someone please explain to me
your ever present lack of speed?
Are your muscles bound by ropes?
Or do crutches cloud your day?
My sources say the road is clear,
and street signs point the way.
Are you gonna stand around till 2012 A.D.?
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate.
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
Would a written invitation signed,
"Choose now or lose it all," sedate your hesitation?
Or inflame and make you stall?
You've been raised in limitation,
but that glove never fit quite right.
The time has passed for hand-me-downs,
choose anew, please evolve, take flight.
Are you gonna stand around till 2012 A.D.?
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate.
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
What are you waiting for?
A written invitation?
A public declaration?
A private consolation?
Are you gonna stand around till 2012 A.D.?
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate.
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?

My hands are trembling
And my eyes are on fire
This house is crumbling
Left brain, left out, on the wire

You make me happy
You magnify my better half
You make me certain
Though all I have today is your photograph

My past is perilous
But each scar I bear sings
Monuments to where I have been
And melodies to where I am going

You make me happy
You magnify my better half
You make me certain
Though all I have today is your photograph

When will I see you again?
Still-life can only go so far
I need you in front of me
Saying my name
Saying to me...
"I want you the way you are
You, the way you are"

You make me happy
You magnify my better half
You make me certain
Though all I have today is your photograph
You make me happy

Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
To get through this thing called life

Electric word life
It means forever and that's a mighty long time
But I'm here to tell you
There's something else
The afterworld

A world of never ending happiness
You can always see the sun, day or night

So when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills
You know the one - Dr Everything'll Be Alright
Instead of asking him how much of your time is left
Ask him how much of your mind, baby

'Cuz in this life
Things are much harder than in the afterworld
In this life
You're on your own

And if the elevator tries the bring you down
Go crazy - punch a higher floor

If you don't like the world you're living in
Take a look around you
At least you got friends

You see I called my old lady
For a friendly word
She picked up the phone
Dropped it on the floor
(Sex, sex) is all I heard

Are we gonna let the elevator
Bring us down
Oh, no Let's Go!

Let's go crazy
Let's get nuts
Let's look for the purple banana
'Til they put us in the truck, let's go!

We're all excited
But we don't know why
Maybe it's 'cuz
We're all gonna die

And when we do (When we do)
What's it all for (What's it all for)
You better live now
Before the grim reaper come knocking on your door

Tell me, are we gonna let the elevator bring us down
Oh, no let's go!

Let's go crazy
Let's get nuts
Look for the purple banana
'Til they put us in the truck, let's go!

C'mon baby
Let's get nuts
Yeah
Crazy

Let's go crazy

Are we gonna let the elevator bring us down
Oh, no let's go!
Go crazy

I said let's go crazy (Go crazy)
Let's go, let's go
Go
Let's go

Dr. Everything'll be alright
Will make everything go wrong
Pills and thrills and dafodills will kill
Hang tough children

He's coming
He's coming
Coming

Take me away!
