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 charlemagnes so self-absorbed/ the bodily remains such a bore
hey, yeah/ was i good enough to break you/ hey, yeah
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
hey, yeah/ was i good enough to break you/ hey, yeah
in the back of the car/ the angel dust was given back to the stars
hey, yeah/ was i good enough to break you/ hey, yeah
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/ yeah
yeah yeah/ angels, barbed wire/ fuck you, desire
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 plans/ 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
You're an empty promise/ You're an easy chair/ You're the god's forces/ Struck down somewhere
You're a secret notice/ You're a mystery sky/ You're a wish floating/ Up to the night
Medellia of my eyes/ You're the emptiness of love/ You're the reason that I write/ And if you say you will/ I will 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 notice/ On me, [?]
Medellia of my eyes/ You're the emptiness of love/ You're the reason that I try/ And if you say you will/ I will 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 lair/You're the angel ceilings/
At rest, at last
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
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 you could
be there forever/ be young forever/ i wish you were 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
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 extraordinary/ 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 songs?/ it's for the girl i've loved all
along/ can a taste of love be so wrong/ 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/ 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 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 the world your can't live without/
and i knew the silence of the world
Day is ending/ Birds are wending/ Back to their shelter of/ Each little nest they love
Nightshade's falling/ Lovebirds calling/ What makes the world go round/ Nothing but love
When Whippoorwills call/ And evening is night/ I hurry to my blue heaven/ I turn to the right/ A little white light/ Will lead you 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
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
We're happy in my blue heaven
To taste my fear/ Summon up your demons, dear/ I left you open, wondering/ When you lie to break my heart
My dahlia/ My dahlia dear/ My dahlia/ My dahlia dear
I'll break into/ Losing in my choices made/ My words/ My promise/ Say I am/ When you lie to break my heart/ When you lie I'll break to break
My dahlia/ My dahlia dear/ My dahlia/ My dahlia dear
Anyone can see/ You're laughing down at me/ It's easy for you now/ Means are what we gathered here/ I left you open, wondering/ When you lie to break my heart/ When you lie I'll break to break
My dahlia/ My dahlia dear/ My dahlia/ My dahlia dear
Anyone can see/ You're laughing down at me/ It's easy for you now
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/ I'm taking a ride with my best friend
We're flying high/ Watching the world pass us by/ Never want to come down/ Never want to put my feet back down on the ground
I'm taking a ride with my best friend/ I hope he never lets me down again/ He promised me I'm safe in his houses/ As long as I remember who's wearing the trousers/ I hope he never lets me down again
We're flying high/ Watching the world pass us by/ We're flying high/ Watching the world pass us by/ Never want to come down/ Never want to come down/ Never want to come down/ Never want to put my feet back down on the ground
See the stars, they're shining bright/ Everything's all right tonight/
See the stars, they're shining bright/ Everything's all right tonight
On My Own (Not Worth Asking)
Not worth asking, who I'm supposed to be/ Not worth saying, seems I'm
free/ Not worth reaching, to anyone at all/ Not worth reaching out to stop
this fall/ I'm on my own/ Yeah, I'm on my own/ Not worth being, I might
already be/ I just want someone to reach for me/ Not worth sinkin', it's
not worth diggin' down/ I've been here before, and hate what I've found/
It's too late, too late/ I'm on my own, I'm on my own/ I've gotta go so
far away/ It's too late, too late/ I'm on my own, I'm on my own/ I've gotta
go so far away, so far away/ Not worth asking, who I'm supposed to be/
Not worth saying something, seems I'm free/ Not worth reaching to anyone
at all/ Not worth reaching out, I'll stop this fall/ But I like you just
the same/ You've got to know some how/ That I'm the one to blame/ We've
come so far along/ To end this destiny/ You've got to know somehow/ That
it's too late, too late/ I'm on my own, I'm on my own/ I've gotta go so
far away/ Yeah, it's too late, too late/ I'm on my own, I'm on my own/
I've gotta go so far away, so far away
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
Fallin' with the leaves/ fallin' 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
Fallin' out of sleep/ crawlin' over me/ to the last goodbyes/ who cares why?
Tuesdays come and gone/ restless i still drive/ try to leave it all behind
fallin', fallin' out of sleep/ fallin', fallin' with the leaves/ I go crawlin', crawlin' over me
Once upon a time in my life.../ I went falling...
Mother I hope you know/ that I miss you so/ time has ravaged on my soul/
to wipe a mothers tears grown cold
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/ once in a while for you/ once in a
while for you
Hiding behind my hair today/ My eyes dance with fire/ The thought of living here/ And the bounds I transpire/ Walking in this slow-motion now/ I think you've made so bad
Standing with your mannequin/ I try to hold my breath
The grave that bears my name/ Started a dream/ A dream, immortality/ Yet I fall in vain
Just as long as I don't breathe/ I'll never be like them
Standing with your mannequin/ I try to hold my breath
If you go and I would stay/ And you would call my name/ I would cry, yes, I would cry/ Walking in or walking out/ Is the same as talking about my heart/ My heart
Hiding behind my hair today/ Wishing I was far away/ Walking in this slow-motion town/ I seem to be so bad
Standing with your mannequin/ I try to hold my breath
If you go and I would stay/ And you would call my name/ I would cry, yes, I would cry/ Walking in or walking out/ Is the same as talking about my heart/ My heart
If you go and I would stay/ And you would call my name/ I would cry, yes, I would cry/ If you go and I would stay/ You would call my name/ I would die, yes, I would die/ Walking in or walking out/ Is the same as talking about my heart/ My heart
Anyone can see/ You're laughing down at me/ It's easy for you now
Yeah
Lost your head/ Now you sleep on the floor/ What you said/ I don't want anymore/ Through the haze/ Make your eyes into ache/ Out in space/ Days away
Through these eyes/ I rely on all I've seen/ Obscured/ Through these eyes/ Looks like I'm home tonight
Left for dead/ As you sweep out the door/ Things we said/ We don't mean anymore/ Tear inside her/ Like a fallen kite/ Há/ Há/ Ha, hey, hey, yeah
Through these eyes/ I deny all I see/ Obscured/ Through these eyes/ Looks like I'm home tonight
What you said/ Made a mess of me/ What you said/ I don't want/ Obscured
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 gave 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 your 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
