Lyrics
Honeyspider
Honeyspider, yeah yeah
Didn’t anyone say they knew I looked a lot like you
‘Cause I do
I do
Didn’t anyone say they knew I looked a lot like you
Honeyspider, yeah
Brain dripping, now I’m tripping
On a stupid acid vision
When I wish I’m with you
My honeyspider, yeah - 2 . Spoken #1
Lyrics
In Spanish: “I always wonder, who am I? Why do I do it? I don’t know. It’s because there’s no other way. Sometimes I ask God and he answers. The simple answer for simple questions. That’s how I see God. As a question.”
- 3 . With You
Lyrics
Low, low, so low with you
Go, go, I’ll go with you
With you
Take, take me somewhere
Wake me, dream somewhere
And you’re peelin’ back your eyes
Some disguise
Trouble you just can’t hide
And you’re feeling so low, so
I’ll wait with you
I’ll wait with you - 4 . Egg
Lyrics
And you’re bluffing
‘Cause your eyes were born to see
Something
Go ask Joe
If you’re blinded
The shield must solve alone
Safe to say
Go ask Joe
She said all things would end
Change your ways
All of you
When you’re bluffing
When your eyes were born to see
Something
Go ask Joe - 5 . Spoken #2
Lyrics
In Spanish: “My sacred heart. I speak of my heart as if it were an entity seperate from me. I think the same thing about pain. It’s like an evil spirit outside of me that’s always with me. The pain that I feel is like a weight that guides me. There’s no way to destroy it. It’s my eternal opera.”

Lyrics
Planned a show
Trees and balloons
Ice cream snow
See you in June
Could have known
I would reveal
Should have known
I would conceal your way
She knows
And she knows, she knows, she knows
And she knows, she knows, she knows
How’s it she knows, she knows, she knows
And she knows, she knows
Colors show
After the moon
I should go
See you in June
Your way
And she knows
And she knows, she knows, she knows
And she knows, she knows, she knows
How’s it she knows, she knows, she knows
And she knows, she knows
Open your eyes to these mustered lines
Open your eyes to these mustered lines
The way
And she knows
And she knows, she knows, she knows
And she knows, she knows, she knows
How’s it she knows, she knows, she knows
And she knows, she knows, she knows - 7 . Stars Fall In
Lyrics
I know this room just crumbles like a tomb
Surrender to the day that I made
Your stars fall in
Your stars fall in
Don’t waste it
You’re not simple
When my head swells just like a balloon
So soon I must realize
Once my words were dangerous
Now they just seem blasphemous
Stars fall in
I’ve walked in search of soul complete
Higher than I’d ever want to be
Come along with me
Over the edge and over to the shelf
Polished up and realized
What I’ve done confronts me whole
Looking into a world disowned
Stars fall in
Your stars fall in
Your stars fall in
(Ok) - 8 . Daughter
Lyrics
Hands that offer
Hands that take
Someone’s daughter
Taking me, take me away
In the water
Just like a snake
Someone’s daughter
Hidden up, sleep away
And you feel you’ve been abused
For your life, your love, and truth - 9 . Spoken #3
Lyrics
In Spanish: “I want to triumph over you. I want respect. I want it all. God will help me to help myself. I don’t know. Dreams and wishes become reality. Peace and love for humanity.”

Lyrics
My daydream seems as one inside of you
Though it seems hard to reach through this life
Your blue and hopeless life
My daydream screams bitter 'til the end
The love I share -true- selfish to the heart
My heart, my sacred heart
My daydream dream
My daydream
My daydream dream
My daydream
- 11 . Spoken #4
Lyrics
In Spanish: “The surreal and suspect dream — I want to clearly remember it, but I can’t. The dream lives in me. My desires control me. My thoughts follow. What is it that stops me from killing, from thinking, from recognizing my destiny? Nothing, absolutely nothing.”
- 12 . Psychodelic
Lyrics
Taking my time
Taking everything I have
Losing my mind
Losing everything I have
Who do you want to be?
You want satisfaction you can’t receive
Who do you want to be?
You want satisfaction you can’t receive
Harder to find
Easy to just walk away
I’m losing my mind
I’ve lost everything I have
And I have
And I have
Yeah, I have
Who do you want to be?
You want satisfaction you can’t receive
How many times will you leave?
You want sati-satisfaction you can’t receive
[and i thought that i knew who it was (?)]
- 13 . My Dahlia
Lyrics
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 breathe in shade
Fluent in the choices made
My words, my summons
Say I dare
When you lie to break my heart
When you lie, I’ll break, 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
No room for kings
Queens are what we gather here
I left you open
Wondering
When you lie to break my heart
When you lie, I’ll break, 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 - 14 . Sun
Lyrics
Quiet walls sputter yes
Rolling tears of pain
Must I go into your hiding room
Using your loss to gain
Walking in the sun
I never fear the light
Walking in the sun
I never fear
Quiet confusion haunts me still
My will can’t reign
Must I go into your hiding room
Using your loss to gain
Walking in the sun
I never fear the light
Walking in the sun
I’ll know that I never fear
Walking in the sun
I never fear the light
Walking in my sun
I know that I never fear - 15 . Snap
Lyrics
I’ll break someone, somewhere
To show how big I am
You know I’m not sorry
I’ll take everything
I wouldn’t give you
The time of day
You were my only
What can I say?
Not alone, now
‘Cause I’m not alone
You repeat me deceiver
To show me the way
I wouldn’t give you away
Away
I wouldn’t give you
The time of day
You were my only
What can I say?
‘Cause I’m not alone - 16 . Love

Lyrics
They want you here
'Cause i'm your man
When you love
Do you love
You're only wishing
Are you listening
Fuck it up
Do you love
Siva's listening
Siva's listening
'Cause it's easy
It's so easy
To follow your leader
He won't fail you
Let you down
Let you down
When you're cruel
Hypnotized
Through these eyes
Love inside
Has lied
Seems like a dream
It'll go, it seems
To rain
Through this umbrella

Lyrics
Tried to tell her who I really am
But I'm not so sure that I really can
Well, you've got to know, I don't understand
Well, you've got to know who I really am
Give me one more chance
As a child, I once had a dream
My mother spoke something down to me
She said, "son, you must walk upon your knees
Down the road, headed for the east"
Give me one more chance
Give me one more chance
If I had a way to go, I'd gather up my throwing stone
Tried to tell her who I really am
But I'm not so sure that I really can
Well, you've got to know I don't understand
'Cause I'm not so sure who I really am
If I had a way to go, I'd gather up my throwing stone
If I had a way to go, I'd gather up my throwing stone

Lyrics
- 19 . C’mon
Lyrics
Yeah, yeah, c’mon
Yeah, yeah, c’mon
Peel away the day
Wondering what to say
Yeah, yeah, c’mon
When you’re feelin’ real slow
And you’re reelin’ from the show
When you’re reachin’ from the floor
Then you’re seein’ you at the door
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, c’mon
I can’t find a day
Wondering who I’ll be
When you’re feelin’ real slow
And you’re reelin’ from the show
Ain’t lookin’ for trouble, ain’t lookin’ to see
Just want a motherfucker like you and me
C’mon
Yeah
Yeah
