      Lyrics

      To the center of the earth
      Or anywhere god decides
      Full of fever pulling forth
      We hear our call as all
      And to the center of the earth
      As if written in
      And dna is reaching out
      To your frequency
      I want to live
      And don’t want to die
      I want to live
      I want to try
      All in prayer
      Prayer in all
      All are scared
      Scared of all
      Black rooms are calling
      To men in leather coats
      White labs are cooking
      Up the silver ghost
      The glass migrates under
      Her translucent skin
      And all the spiders wonder
      What we’ve got us in
      All is you
      You are all
      All with you
      You in all
      I want to live
      I don’t want to die
      I want to live
      I want to try
      So, it’s all very obtuse
      Because it’s all like, like, I don’t know
      So, like, I started thinking
      That everything I operate on
      Is based on what I believe god was telling me to do
      God could be my intuition or whatever
      But I always assume
      I always assume that the voice I hear is the voice of god
      Then I started thinking
      What if I’m insane
      So I’m operating on the premise
      That I’m hearing the voice of god
      Or what I perceive to be god speaking to me
      Or through me
      But maybe I’m completely in…
      So all my…
      Demagoguery in my life about me thinking that my life has importance
      My, my..
      Thinking that my life has importance
      My, my, my thought of it
      And the fact that I believe that I’m following my intuition
      Which in and of itself may be completely false
      So then I started freaking out thinking…
      Of itself may be completely false
      And again this creature that believes that he’s acting upon
      Heavenly intuition, but meanwhile he’s totally rampant
      And I started thinking maybe this is the cause
      Of all the negativity against…
      And I started thinking maybe this is the cause
      Of all the negativity against…
      And I started thinking maybe this is the cause
      Of all the negativity against…
      So beats the final coda
      Of our vinyl storm
      One more cherry cola
      To lift up her dead arms
      A dream of soft focus sunsets
      Filters through the din
      We are losing contact
      As she dials it in
      She can hear glass calling
      Or is it someone that looks like him
      She eyes TV reflection
      And nods a knowing look
      She says it doesn’t matter
      She’d never liked her looks
      I have seen a thousand fractures
      I have seen everything
      Cause knowing is its own answer
      Love something in a book
      There’s not much left to ponder
      Not much left to cook
      As she counted the spiders
      As they crawled up inside her
      As she counted the spiders
      As they crawled up inside her
      As she counted the spiders
      As they crawled up inside her
      As she counted the spiders
      As they crawled up inside her
      As she counted the spiders
      As they crawled up inside her
      As she counted the spiders, oh

      Lyrics

      Time is never time at all

      You can never ever leave without leaving a piece of youth

      And our lives are forever changed

      We will never be the same

      The more you change the less you feel

      Believe, believe in me, believe

      That life can change, that you’re not stuck in vain

      We’re not the same, we’re different tonight

      Tonight, so bright

      Tonight

      And you know you’re never sure

      But you’re sure you could be right

      If you held yourself up to the light

      And the embers never fade in your city by the lake

      The place where you were born

      Believe, believe in me, believe

      In the resolute urgency of now

      And if you believe there’s not a tonight

      Tonight, so bright

      Tonight

      We’ll crucify the insincere tonight

      We’ll make things right, we’ll feel it all tonight

      We’ll find a way to offer up the night tonight

      The indescribable moments of your life tonight

      The impossible is possible tonight

      Believe in me as I believe in you, tonight

      Lyrics

      I lie, I wait
      I stop, I hesitate
      I am, I breathe
      I meant, I think of me
      Is it any wonder I can’t sleep?
      All I have is all you gave to me
      Is it any wonder I found peace through you?
      Turn to the gates of heaven, to myself be damned
      Turn away from light
      It’s not enough, just a touch
      It’s not enough
      I taste, I love
      I come, I bleed enough
      I hate, I’m not
      I was, I want too much
      Is it any wonder I can’t sleep?
      All I have is all you gave to me
      Is it any wonder I found peace through you?
      Turn to the gates of heaven, to myself be damned
      Turn away from light
      It’s not enough, just a touch
      It’s not enough, just a touch
      It’s not enough, just a touch
      It’s not enough, just a touch
      It’s not enough, just a touch
      It’s not enough, just a touch

      Lyrics

      This is a song for a son
      This is a song for a sailor
      The son I never had
      This is a song for a kid
      This is a song for a tailor
      Who stitched up my old heart
      Who stitched up my old heart
      This is a song for a dog
      This is a song for a blown-out bird
      The kind that don’t return to the nest
      This is a song for a star
      This is a song for a space invader
      Who flew into the sun
      Never to return
      Never to return
      And I am one of many
      Many more to come
      Many more to come
      I am one of many more
      Many more to come
      Many more to come
      This is a song for a son
      This is a song for a sailor
      The best I ever had
      He sailed without a map
      This is a song for that kid
      This is a song for that tailor
      Who stitched up my old heart
      Who stitched up my old heart
      And broke it all apart
      I am one of many
      Many more to come
      Many more to come
      I am one of many more
      Many more to come
      Many more to come
      You daughters of the revolution
      Carry back your sons
      Carry them back home
      You daughters of the revolution
      Carry back your sons
      Carry them back home
      And I, I am one of many
      Many more to come
      Many more to come

      Lyrics

      If I was to listen I’d turn back
      Give up on my reasons
      Forgive up the past
      You think I’d swallow that?
      Bearing weight in ceilings
      Just to stop and ask of Thora Zine
      Thora Zine, Thora Zine, Thora Zine
      They give you this
      They take away that
      Thora Zine
      There’ll be no others
      There’ll be no long lost friends
      Empty on the insides
      Empty of a last pretense
      To stand by on feeling of the end
      So many lives
      A runaway life
      So many lies
      When they locked you up they shut me out
      Gave me the key so I could show you round
      Yet we were not allowed
      Omens of the daydream
      But caught as you’re bound in Thora Zine
      Thora Zine, Thora Zine, Thora Zine
      They give you this
      They take away that
      Thora Zine
      There’ll be no rallies
      There’ll be no long lost friends
      Caught on a spotlight running out of present tense
      To fix by a feeling of an end
      So many lives
      A runaway life
      Please come back
      Please come back
      Please come back Pale Horse
      Please come back
      Please come back
      Please come back Pale Horse
      Please come back
      Please come back
      Please come back Pale Horse
      Please come back
      Please come back
      Please come back Pale Horse

      For your love
      For your love, for your love
      For your love
      For your love, for your love
      I’ll knock ’em down kid
      And set ’em up
      For your love, for your love
      Far and wide, sis
      I let this slide
      For your love, for your love
      For your love I’ll disappear
      I’ll let you forget my touch
      For your love I’ll press my luck
      I’ll let you think you’ve won
      For your love
      For your love, for your love
      For your love
      For your love, for your love
      Do you see my smile, kid
      And know it’s honest
      For your love, for your love
      ‘Cause off and on, kid
      I’ll never stop
      For your love, for your love
      For your love I’ll dig a hole
      I’ll dig till my hands bleed
      For your love I’ll fill that hole
      With girls in pearls and weeds
      For your love, for your love
      For your love, for your love
      For your love, for your love
      For your love, for your love
      Ask me, and I’ll tell you
      It’s all a lie that’s in my mind
      The prairies, the valleys
      This lonesome town we drive around
      For your love
      For your love
      For your love
      For your love
      For your love
      For your love
      For your love
      For your love, for your love
      For your love

      Lyrics

      Mother moon
      Mistress of the sun, say
      I got you, I got you
      Sister soul
      Lovers of the tune, sing!
      I got you, I got you, I got you
      Floating away I think I’ll stay as refused
      Floating away I think I’ll stay blue-black
      Floating away I think I’ll change next to you
      Finding a way to make the loss seem new
      Cause you don’t deserve me
      But I deserve you

      Mother moon
      Mistress of the sun, say
      I got you, I got you
      Sister soul
      Lovers of the tune, sing!
      I got you
      I got you
      Mother moon
      Mistress of the sun, say
      I got you, I got you, oh I’ve got you
      I got you, I’ve got you mother moon
      Floating away I think I’ll stay as refused
      Finding a way to make the loss seem new
      Floating away I think I’ll change next to you
      Finding a way to make the loss seem new
      Cause you don’t deserve me
      But I deserve you
      Flies for the may queen
      But life for the prince
      If nobody wins
      Then what gets lost?
      If I’ve got you

      Lyrics

      Shakedown 1979
      Cool kids never have the time
      On a live wire
      Right up off the street
      You and I should meet
      Junebug skipping like a stone
      With the headlights pointed at the dawn
      We were sure we’d never see an end to it all
      And I don’t even care
      To shake these zipper blues
      And we don’t know
      Just where our bones will rest
      To dust I guess
      Forgotten and absorbed
      Into the earth below
      Double cross the vacant and the bored
      They’re not sure just what we have in store
      Morphine city slippin’ dues
      Down to see
      That we don’t even care
      As restless as we are
      We feel the pull
      In the land of a thousand guilts
      And poured cement
      Lamented and assured
      To the lights and towns below
      Faster than the speed of sound
      Faster than we thought we’d go
      Beneath the sound of hope
      Justine never knew the rules
      Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls
      No apologies ever need be made
      I know you better than you fake it
      To see that we don’t even care
      To shake these zipper blues
      And we don’t know
      Just where our bones will rest
      To dust I guess
      Forgotten and absorbed
      Into the earth below
      The street heats the urgency of now (written: sound)
      As you can see there’s no one around
