Because of your dream
02:18

I could have died,
but because of your dream
I'm satisfied
I could have died
but because of your dream
I'm satisfied
I've been looking forever, do you ever think I'll see
I've been looking forever, do you ever think I'll see
She looks so good
that I wish I could
She looks so free
She looks so fine
That I want to make her mine
She looks so free
That I wish she was me

In my arms
01:46
|
|
||
|
When I hold you in my arms
It's like a magnetic lock
I don't want to let go
Energy flux, heartbeat pulse
I'm just a poor boy looking to forget
I'm never satisfied with all of my regret
Life would be different with me
You'll care about less of some things
And focus more on certain things
But more or less you'll be the same
I'll love you forever just the same

Red mercury
01:06
|
|
||
|
I've been searching for forever through the shade of the glade
Came across you once but I could not say your name
So I watched you dancing in the rain and things will never be the same
I saw lightning strike, thunder bellows through the air, and the mist refracts the light and the creature came to lie
Sit there with your hands on your head, boy you think you got it all sorted
I'm crawling out the tomb, back from the dead, and I'm raining red mercury in your water supply
What cha gonna do when the fluid runs red,
What cha gonna do when she's under your bed
What cha gonna do when the fluid runs red,
What cha gonna do when she's under your bed

Closer

You let me violate you
You let me desecrate you
You let me penetrate you
You let me complicate you
(Help me) I broke apart my insides
(Help me) I've got no soul to sell
(Help me) the only thing that works for me
Help me get away from myself
I wanna fuck you like an animal
I wanna feel you from the inside
I wanna fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to God
You can have my isolation
You can have the hate that it brings
You can have my absence of faith
You can have my everything
(help me) you tear down my reason
(Help me) it's your sex I can smell
(Help me) you make me perfect
Help me become somebody else
I wanna fuck you like an animal
I wanna feel you from the inside
I wanna fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to God

She's a rebel
04:56
|
|
||
|
See the way she walks down the street
See the way she shuffles her feet
My she holds her head up high when she goes walking by
you know she caught my eye
When she didn't take my hand I was so proud
Because I know she's not just one of the crowd
Oh my baby's always the one to do the things they've never done and just because of that, they say
She's a rebel and you know she'll never ever be any good
She's a rebel and you know she'll never ever do what she should
But just because she doesn't do what everybody else does
that's no reason why I can't give her all my love
because she's always good to me, always treats me tenderly
she's not a rebel, no no, she's not a rebel, no not to me
and If they don't like her that way, then they won't like me after today
because I'll be standing right by her side and they'll say
Your a rebel and you'll never ever be any good, huh?
She's a rebel and you know she'll never ever do you any good, huh?
Just because she doesn't do what everybody else does
that's no reason why we can't share a love
because she's always good to me, always treats me tenderly
She's not a rebel, no no, she's not a rebel, no no
always treats me tenderly, yeah good to her I try to be
To know know know her, is to love love love her
and I do, yeah I do
To know know know her, is to love love love her
and I do
Don't you know I've got a number six
spinning wheels on my five frame disc
you know, its a heavy load darling, but if you can

Through every forest
Above the trees
Within my stomach
Scraped off my knees
I drink the honey
Inside your hive
You are the reason
I stay alive
We're in this together
closer, we're getting closer
where is the place where we get to when the
uh
some things go without names
uh, we're in this together
now get to the place that we get together
the time and the place where the names without names
her, myself, hurt, myself
head like a crown in the thorn of my side
have you got enough sir
kill myself, kill themselves, kill all selves, kill all cells

Vacation
02:21
|
|

Fragment perfume
picnic patches
clay pot retainer
black soup
a story not suppose to be written
ladle candle wax
sardine treatment
ka ka for bread
cha cha for tea
an effort to reduce the boredom
while I wait within sealed rooms
I'll tell ya,
your towels
I'm a bit oppressed
lucky you
she told me
hey baby come hang out yeah?
so what happened
on vacation
afraid to slap myself awake
don't you forget
choose to remember
If he's asleep all good
oh that's good
wavy curls,
garden pearls could go fast
yearning to explain my situation the list of people grew
remembering your phone number is a code to be cracked
a beginning familiar misguided plot and an ending uncertain between two alternatives

Ow my shoulder
01:21
|
|

I thought it was you
how is your shoulder?
I felt sorry, I ought to, I didn't ask the other day
Was, let me tell you, there's only a few bunch of nutcases here
triggered, conscientiously speaking I am to fuck
I keep my grandson locked, this, to from the world he once with
or am I selfish bitch, business, when he asked to live with, as a compromise he laughed, bungalow his face, puffy jacket for what, don't you light a fire, lazy bones
I was going haze come with cremated keep the embers to bring potential to my new house, oh the audacity to keep myself, witch and frosted
every time you in the kitchen, I need to be in there
you're soaking up the wrong vocal resonances
excuse me mam' do you want a biscuit, oh no sorry there's a snake in my view, but yes

Glue to you
01:19
|
|
||
|
There's a kind of glue to you
I can't quit, adhesive strip-per person bit
We stick together
Mess around, same time I was found
Lemon lime and bitters
Don't tell, tell your sister
We stick together
Never had it better
We stick together
Just a name to a face,
baby your all my saving grace, no more mistakes
we stick together

Sure the girl I love
02:19

I always dreamed the girl I love would come along
she'd be rich and handsome smart and strong
now the girl I love has come to me
she sure ain't the way I thought she'd be
she doesn't look like a big screen star
she doesn't drive a Cadillac car
she sure ain't the girl I've been dreaming of,
but she's sure the girl I love
she doesn't want me to be a big business man
she's always lying on that installment plan
she sure ain't the girl I've been dreaming of
but she's sure the girl I love
when I hold her tight
oh everything seems right
crazy as it seems, you know I hear whatever she hears
and I forget all my dreams
she doesn't hang diamonds round my neck
all she's got is unemployment checks
she sure ain't the girl I've been dreaming of,
but she's sure the girl I love
when I hold her tight
oh everything seems right
crazy as it seems, you know I hear whatever she hears
and I am whole
