STALEMATE
beside me, her shadow
illuminating passion and
fear, the sky moves slower,
the people talk louder
she disappears like air
5 till three
i forget how to sleep oh
my dreams are
worse than anything
my days grow longer
my days fall shorter
my mind seeps further away
im busy, im drinking
at least theres something in common
between us, a static which
evergizes breath through our
fingertips, and i never meant
this, you now i've promised
to confess to you, so...
why must we play
such silly games?
i wont win and
you've already lost
my nights grow longer,
my minds seeps further away
im busy, oh im drinking
at least thats something in common
at least thats something in common
personality
personality
personality-
hey! i heard you forfeit!
write me a letter on my birthday
well, you dont have to
no, you dont have to
as for me i drink
i drink for a personality
as for me i drink
i drink for a personality
as for me i drink
i drink for personality
as for me i drink
i drink for personality
and we play
and we play
with no strategy.
THE WAITING ROOM
take me for granted
i just need to be taken...
far away from home, into delusion
where i cant help but fall in love with my confusion
the fires been out but it grows, the fires been out but it grows
ive been spinning sideways through the depths of the vex
no one ever said it was going to be like this
i saw the arrows pointing that road
and, wouldnt you've known i'd chosen this way
when will all begin to fall back into place?
yeah, i'd like to watch it all disappear and cast the spells
for lonely eternity-
yet, this dream just plays on and on
we'll never be the same again!
and, these years, oh god let them stop
nostalgia, nostalgia
i dont want to be alone, dancing naked in the bedroom window
i dont want to be alone, oh wont you come back....oh wont you come back home?
create the color out of your misery
why complicate whats already been breaking?
im shaking with the girls with the one track minds
oh she said (pulling hairs from her head, wiping blood from her eyes)
californias dead and so am i.....so am i
but in silence, we found jesus
laughing at us from an empty bottle
its not fate girl, its not miracle
so stop
nostalgia
i dont want to be alone, ripping pages from your mothers bible
i dont want to be alone, but theres no room, no theres no room for you
put the strange back in stranger
take ignore out of ignorance
the fires been out but it grows
put the strange back in stranger
take ignore out of ignorance
the rivers since dry but it flows
you know that
i dont want to be alone, dancing naked in the bedroom window
i dont want to be alone, yeah, if you see, her wont you tell her
i dont want to be alone
wont you come back....
at least just telephone?
