I hear you on the radio. You permeate my screen, it's 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 f*@king Elvis. Wash your hands clean of yourself, baby, 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 and there was never meant to be only one, to be only one. Hey megalomaniac, you're no Jesus. Yeah, you're no f*@king Elvis. Wash your hands clean of yourself, baby, just step down, step down, step down. Yeah. You're no Jesus. You're no Elvis. You're no answer. Hey megalomaniac, you're no Jesus. Yeah, you're no f*@king Elvis. Wash your hands clean of yourself, baby, just step down, step down, step down.
Unlearn me. Ditch what I read. Hide what I heard. Look. Find. Free. Yet? Do You get it yet? Do You get it? From here on it's instinctual. Even straight roads meander. Every piece contains a map of it all, it all. Evidence. March through the air? Waltz through the sea? Look. Find. Free. Yet? Do You get it yet? Do You get it? From here on it's instinctual. Even straight roads meander. Every piece contains a map of it all, it all. On the line, and indivisible. A crow left of the murder. Every piece contains a map of it all. Everything I wanted, wanted to know. Everything I wanted, wanted to see. Unlearn me. Do You get it yet? Look. Find. Free. Do you get it Yet?
Two people touching lips, hands on each other's hips, nothing else in the world but one another. The 42nd floor on a distant shore, I wonder how we strayed so far from this. Remember when we were just flesh and bone. You say, "We have forgotten how cordial war could be." So, put down your hollow tips and kiss your lovers lips and learn that fate is what you make of it. Please end this before it ends us. I wanna stay inside. I wanna stay inside for good. I wanna stay inside for good. I read the news today and everything they say just makes me want to stay inside. And a better part of me knows that waiting in the throes is all on par with reading with my eyes closed. "What Can I do?", you say. It's just another day in the life of Apes with ego trips. Put down your hollow tips and kiss your lover's lips and learn that fate is what we make of it. Please end this before it ends us. I wanna stay inside. I wanna stay inside for good. I wanna stay inside for good. I'm gonna stay inside. I'm gonna stay inside for good. I'm gonna stay inside for good. I wanna stay inside. I wanna stay inside for good. I wanna stay inside. Don't want to stay inside for good.
Take a bow, got better. Wash 'em out with burning lies. Did it all to instigate,t hat's your personality. Still attracting me, fast asleep but dreaming of your face. Enjoyment from the chemical comfort all America. Come one, come all into 1984. Yeah, three, two, one, lights, camera, transaction. Quick, your time is almost up. All forget that there is more. Edging in towards the flame, burn into obscurity. Still attracting me, fast asleep but dreaming of your face. And judging from the guard that looms comfort all America. Come one, come all into 1984. Yeah, three, two, one, lights, camera, transaction. The Foundation is caving in, all that should be worn with pride. I hate to say it's so much more, it's so much more endearing with the sound turned off.
You crawl in bed. Its three am. You smell of wine and cigarettes. A butterfly under the glass, you are beautiful, but you're not going anywhere. We do the same thing every night. I swear Ive heard this song before. A swimmer who has seen a shark, I should really be more wary of the water. You came you saw you conquered everyone. Im left here guessing. What went wrong. Yeah Im down but not out and far from done�hey all, beware! criminal. A prism with an intellect, you throw your light selectively. You stole my glow, a seasoned thief. The blacks of my eyes are turning into opals. Today I walk. There's nothing left here for me but empty promises and the thought of all the things I'm never getting back. You came you saw you conquered everyone. I'm left here bleeding. What went wrong. Yeah Im down but not out and far from done�hey all, beware! Criminal. Did you think I wouldn�t notice. Did you really think I wouldn�t care
No you're not the first to fall apart, but always the first one to complain. You better get careful, or you'll compromise everything you are. The world is a drought when out of love. Please come back to us you're all of the above. I'm making a choice to be out of touch. Leave me be he said. He said: Leave me here in my stark raving, sick, sad little world. Leave me here in my stark raving, sick, sad little world. I've never had unpaid confidantes, its more than I would care to explain. But I have an open door policy, when it comes to blame. The world is a joke when out of love. Please come back to us you're all of the above. I'm making a choice to be out of touch. Leave me be he said. He said: Leave me here in my stark raving, sick, sad little world. Leave me here in my stark raving, sick, sad little world.
On the tip of my tongue an offencive is poised and rearing. My intention; a bullet. My body; a trigger finger. And my pen is a Pistola! Oooh Let go of your fear of fear, yeah! And my pen is a Pistola! My secret arsenal is an infinite ageless inkwell. It's a fountain of youth and a patriot's weapon of choice! And my pen is a Pistola! Let go of your fear of fear, yeah! And my pen is a Pistola! On the tip of my tongue an offence is poised and rearing. My intention; a bullet. my body; a trigger finger And my pen is a Pistola! Let go of your fear of fear, yeah! And my pen is a Pistola!
Is everything a baited hook? And are there locks on our doors? If you're looking for an open book, look no further, I am yours. We'll behave like animals, swing from tree to tree. We can do anything that turns you up and sets you free. You're an exception to the rule. You're of an unthought rarity. You're all I ever wanted. Southern girl, could you want me? So come outside and walk with me. We'll try each other on to see if we fit. And with our roots, become a tree to shade what we make, under it. We'll behave like animals, swing from tree to tree. We can do anything that turns you up and sets you free. You're an exception to the rule. You're of an unthought rarity. You're all I ever wanted. Southern girl, could you want me?
The fact that you, you think you can speak to me the way you do, it pains me to believe that you have never stepped out of the skin you've lived with. And then, and if this day occurs, your tongue, the taste will immitate a battery. The anti-equilibrium, your stomach becomes the floor. The look on your face was priceless! The look on your face was priceless! Yes, the look on your face was priceless! That look, it was... A light goes on up stairs, the attic is a place of solitaire. Isn't big enough for both of us so who will swim in eel infested oceans. Kiss and say goodbye because the tide is coming up and in. Yeah, water, water, water everywhere! And every chance to sink! The look on your face was priceless! The look on your face was priceless! Yes, the look on your face was priceless! That look, it was so priceless. It's a proclamation of the things you aren't, the ways you wish you were. A split second, percieving of the way you really look to everyone of them. I wish that you could see because, I wish that you could see. The look on your face was priceless! The look on your face was priceless! Yes, the look on your face was priceless! That look, it was so priceless.
Nice car, where'd you get your ride? A trophy? Badge of honor? Overcompensation? Price tags advertise your pride. Since when did what we pay for colored cloth gauge our gravity? Yeah you got your little world, picture perfect, its a pearl. Now go and try and sleep in the bed you made. You should be careful what you wish for cause everyone of us has a devil inside. You should be careful what you wish for cause all I want abounds becomes you. Nice watch, man, you got the time? There's never enough and it always goes too slow.

I heard a word from on high, clear like a light in the sky. It said, "quit blowing each other up." The voice seemed so crystally clear. Some things are clean in your ear when only blood fills your cup. Hello. I'm trying to focus, but my eyes deceive me. Focus. I'm witnessing history repeating. It fell like a tear from my eye. Flying machines so up high. Well, there goes the neighborhood. A scene set to singe innocence, upheave, unhinge, and pit against like every made for TV movie should. Hello. I'm trying to focus, but my eyes deceive me. Focus. I'm witnessing history repeating. Focus, focus, focus (I can see now). We are, we know, we see, we think for you. The who, the what, the when, the where, the why. We build your hill, we build you too, we see you. Hello. I'm trying to focus, but my eyes deceive me. Focus. I'm witnessing history repeating.
Met my match today. Felt the blood rushing and mingling, a curious and enigmatic thing. Spiders in my dreams. Synchronicity weaves like a web when you were meant to be a meal I want you bad! I want you bad! I understand why they say high school never ends. Never act my age. You can tell by the lines in my smile that I have been around for awhile. So, insecurities are about as useful as trying to put the pin back in the grenade. I want you bad! I understand why they say high school never ends. I want you bad! I understand why they say high school never stops. This isn't coincidence. There's no such thing. This isn't coincidence, no. This isn't coincidence. It's no such thing. This isn't, no. I want you bad! I understand why they say high school never ends.
This party is old and uninviting. Participants all in black and white. You enter in full blown technicolor. Nothing is the same after tonight. If the world would fall apart in a fiction worthy wind, I wouldn't change a thing now that you're here. Your love is a verb here in my room. You enter and close the door behind you. Now show me the world seen from the stars. If only the lights would dim a little. I'm weary of eyes upon my scars. If the world would fall apart in a fiction worthy wind, I wouldn't change a thing now that you're here. Your love is a verb here in my room. Pink tractor beam into your incision. Head spinning is free. Its dervish ... I came here expecting next to nothing so thank you for being that kind of girl
Does it make you envy, does it make you proud to tuck the world into a paper bag? This body's state of "I'm ok, you're not ok." Yes, men too could be on the rag. I'm over my head I need a pick-me-up. It's easy to get high when you're standing on our backs, man.Would anything ever be good enough for you? Stand on your own, hold your water if you can. The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself? The ride's over, fair thee well. The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself? The ride's over, fair thee well. Not on my time. It isn't fair to mention, but it awes the crowd, your fictional, plastic alibi. So take another hit, steal another line. Did you ever meet a leech who was good at goodbyes? When you were down I always picked you up. Why didn't I recognize that everything was never fine? I'm kicking myself that I shared spit with you. So fuck yourself and fuck this bleeding heart of mine. The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself? The ride's over, fair thee well. The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself? The ride's over, fair thee well. Not on my time. When you were down I always picked you up. Why didn't I recognize that everything was never fine? I'm kicking myself that I shared spit with you.
