      Lyrics

      Candy cane walks down

      To build a bonfire, to break my fall

      My baby, my sweet thing

      Just maybe we could lose ourselves this time

      King of the horseflies, dark prince of death

      His tragic forces are heaven sent

      In sweet things, in a lovers breath

      In knowing this was meant to be the last

      A go-go-kids, a go-go-style

      A suck suck kiss, a suck suck smile

      As always, in young need

      A veiled promise to never die

      On dead highways, her black beauties roam

      For june angels, so far from home

      For a love lost, a faded picture

      To tread lightning, to ink the lavender skies

      So get on the bomb

      Lyrics

      My reflection, dirty mirror

      There's no connection to myself

      I'm your lover, I'm your zero

      I'm the face in your dreams of glass

      So save your prayers

      For when we're really gonna need 'em

      Throw out your cares and fly

      Wanna go for a ride?

      She's the one for me

      She's all I really need

      Cause she's the one for me

      Emptiness is loneliness, and loneliness is cleanliness

      And cleanliness is godliness, and god is empty just like me

      Intoxicated with the madness, I'm in love with my sadness

      Bullshit fakers, enchanted kingdoms

      The fashion victims chew their charcoal teeth

      I never let on, that I was on a sinking ship

      I never let on that I was down

      You blame yourself, for what you can't ignore

      You blame yourself for wanting more

      She's the one for me

      She's all I really need

      She's the one for me

      She's my one and only

      Lyrics

      Freak out

      And give in

      Doesn't matter what you believe in

      Stay cool

      And be somebody's fool this year

      'Cause they know

      Who is righteous, What is bold

      So I'm told

      Who wants honey

      As long as there's some money

      Who wants that honey?

      Hipsters unite

      Come align for the big fight to rock for you

      But beware

      All those angels with their wings glued on

      'Cause deep down

      We are frightened and we're scared

      If you don't stare

      Who wants honey

      As long as there's some money

      Who wants that honey?

      Let me out

      Let me out

      Let me out

      Let me out

      Tell me all of your secrets

      Cannot help but believe this is true

      Tell me all of your secrets

      I know, I know, I know,

      Should have listened when I was told

      Who wants honey

      As long as there is some money

      Who wants that honey?

      Let me out

      Let me out

      Let me out

      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

      Today is the greatest

      Day I've ever known

      Can't live for tomorrow,

      Tomorrow's much too long

      I'll burn my eyes out

      Before I get out

      I wanted more

      Than life could ever grant me

      Bored by the chore

      Of saving face

      Today is the greatest

      Day I've ever known

      Can't wait for tomorrow

      I might not have that long

      I'll tear my heart out

      Before I get out

      Pink ribbon scars

      That never forget

      I tried so hard

      To cleanse these regrets

      My angel wings

      Were bruised and restrained

      My belly stings

      Today is

      Today is

      Today is

      The greatest day

      I want to turn you on

      I want to turn you on

      I want to turn you on

      I want to turn you

      Today is the greatest

      Today is the greatest day

      Today is the greatest day

      That I have ever really known

      Lyrics

      By starlight I'll kiss you

      And promise to be your one and only

      I'll make you feel happy

      And leave you to be lost in mine

      And where will we go, what will we do?

      Soon said I, will know

      Dead eyes, are you just like me?

      Cause her eyes were as vacant as the seas

      Dead eyes, are you just like me?

      And all along, we knew we'd carry on

      Just to belong

      By starlight I know you

      As lovely as a wish granted true

      My life has been empty, my life has been untrue

      And does she really know, who I really am?

      Does she really know me at last

      Dead eyes, are you just like me?

      Lyrics

      Wrap me up in always, and drag me in with maybes

      Your innocence is treasure, your innocence is death

      Your innocence is all I have

      Breathing underwater, and living under glass

      And if you spin your love around

      The secrets of your dreams

      You may find your love is gone

      And is not quite what it seemed

      To appear to disappear

      Beneath all your darkest fears

      I believe in never, I believe in all the way

      But belief is not to notice, believe is just some faith

      And faith can't help you to escape

      And with this ring I wed thee true

      And with this ring I wed thee now

      And with this ring I play so dead

      But no one's asking for the truth, so let me tell you

      If you spin your love around

      The secrets of your dreams

      You may find your love is gone

      And is not quite what it seemed

      To appear to disappear

      Beneath all your darkest fears

      To the revelations of fresh faced youth

      No one will come to save you

      So speak your peace in the murmurs drawn

      But youth is wasted on the young

      Your strength is my weakness, your weakness my hate

      My love for you just can't explain

      Why we're forever frozen, forever beautiful,

      Forever lost inside ourselves

      The night has come to hold us young

      Lyrics

      We only come out at night, the days are much too bright

      We only come out at night

      And once again, you'll pretend to know me well, my friends

      And once again, I'll pretend to know the way

      Thru the empty space

      Thru the secret places of the heart

      We only come out at night, the days are much too bright

      We only come out at night

      I walk alone, I walk alone to find the way home

      I'm on my own, I'm on my own to see the ways

      That I can't help the days, you will make it home o.k

      I know you can, and you can

      We only come out at night, the days are much too bright

      We only come out at night

      And once again, you'll pretend to know that

      There's an end, that there's an end to this begin

      It will help you sleep at night

      It will make it seem that right is always right

      Alright?

      We only come out at night

      Lyrics

      Disarm you with a smile

      And cut you like you want me to

      Cut that little child

      Inside of me and such a part of you

      Ooh, the years burn

      I used to be a little boy

      So old in my shoes

      And what I choose is my choice

      What's a boy supposed to do?

      The killer in me is the killer in you

      My love

      I send this smile over to you

      Disarm you with a smile

      And leave you like they left me here

      To wither in denial

      The bitterness of one who's left alone

      Ooh, the years burn

      Ooh, the years burn, burn, burn

      I used to be a little boy

      So old in my shoes

      And what I choose is my voice

      What's a boy supposed to do?

      The killer in me is the killer in you

      My love

      I send this smile over to you

      The killer in me is the killer in you

      Send this smile over to you

      The killer in me is the killer in you

      Send this smile over to you

      The killer in me is the killer in you

      Send this smile over to you

      Lyrics

      I'm never coming back

      I'm never giving in

      I'll never be the shine in your spit

      I disconnect the act

      I disconnect the dots

      I disconnect the me in me

      And you're mistaken, it's you that's faking

      Living and breathing and dying too

      This message is for anyone who dares to hear a fool

      You can't bring me back, you can't bring me back

      Cause I give it all back to you

      Thru sacred alleys, the living wrecks

      Wreak their havoc upon this world

      The disenchanted, the romantics,

      The body and face and soul of you is gone down that deep black hole

      Destroy the mind-destroy the body-but you cannot destroy the heart

      And you, you make me so I need to disconnect

      And you make it so real

      I don't need you love to disconnect

      To runaround kids in get-go cars

      With vaseline afterbirths and neon coughs

      Galaxies full of nobodies

      Giving us the farewell runarounds

      I took a virgin mary axe to his sweet baby jane,

      Lost my innocence to a no good girl,

      Scratch my face with anvil hands,

      And coil my tongue around a bumblebee mouth

      And I give it all back to you

      No way, I don't need it, I don't need your love to disconnect

      And you make it, so real, I don't need your love to disconnect

      No way to disconnect

      And you make it so real

      I don't need your love to disconnect

      No way to disconnect

      Lyrics

      The world is a vampire, sent to drain

      Secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames

      And what do I get, for my pain

      Betrayed desires, and a piece of the game

      Even though I know-i suppose I'll show

      All my cool and cold-like old job

      Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

      Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved

      Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

      Now I'm naked, nothing but an animal

      But can you fake it, for just one more show

      And what do you want, I want to change

      And what have you got

      When you feel the same

      Even though I know-i suppose I'll show

      All my cool and cold-like old job

      Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

      Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved

      Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

      Tell me I'm the only one

      Tell me there's no other one

      Jesus was an only son

      Tell me I'm the chosen one

      Jesus was an only son for you

      Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

      And I still believe that I cannot be saved

      Lyrics

      No matter where you are

      I can still hear you when you drown

      You've traveled very far

      Just to see you I'll come around

      When I'm down

      All of those yesterdays

      Coming around

      No matter where you are

      I can still hear you when you dream (on some versions, "scream")

      You traveled very far

      You traveled far, like a star

      And you are

      All of those yesterdays

      Coming around

      Is it something someone said?

      Was it something someone said?

      Yesterday the sky was you

      And I still feel the same

      Nothing left for me to do

      And I still feel the same

      I wish, I wish I could fly

      I wish, I wish I could lie

      I will, I will try

      I will, I will

      Goodbye

      Lyrics

      Faith lies in
      The ways of sin
      I chased the charmed
      But I don’t want them anymore
      And in their eyes I was alive
      A fool’s disguise
      Take me away from you
      Shame my tongue
      Fat with promise all along
      But when I woke up from that sleep
      I was happier than I’d ever been
      When you decide
      That your life is a prize
      Renew and revive
      It’s alright honey
      It’s alright, yeah
      Happiness will make you wonder
      Will I feel OK?
      It scares the disenchanted
      Far away
      Yeah I want something new
      But what am I supposed to do about you
      Yeah I love you, it’s true
      Life’s a bummer
      When you’re a hummer
      Life’s a drag
      Ask yourself a question
      Anyone but me
      I ain’t free
      Ask yourself a question
      Anyone but me
      I ain’t free
      Do you feel
      Love is real?

      Lyrics

      Welcome to nowhere fast

      Nothing here ever lasts

      Nothing but memories

      Of what never was

      We're nowhere, we're nowhere, we're nowhere to be

      Nowhere, we're nowhere, we're nowhere to see

      Living makes me sick

      So sick I wish I'd die

      Down in the belly of the beast

      I can't lie

      You're nowhere, you're nowhere, you're nowhere to be

      Nowhere, you're nowhere, you're nowhere to see

      There's nothing left to do

      There's nothing left to feel

      Doesn't matter what you want, so

      To make yourself feel better

      You make it so you'll never

      Give in to your forevers

      And live for always

      And forever, forever, you're forever to be

      Forever, forever, you're forever to me

      Lyrics

      As far as you take me, that's where I believe

      The realm of soft delusions, floating on the leaves

      On a distant shoreline, she waves her arms to me

      As all the thought police, are closing in for sleep

      The dilly dally, of my bright lit stay

      The steam of my misfortunes

      Has given me the power to be afraid

      And in my mind I'm everyone

      And in my mind

      Without a care in this whole world

      Without a care in this life

      It's what you take that makes it right

      Porcelina of the oceans blue

      In the slipstream, of thoughtless thoughts

      The light of all that's good, the light of all that's true

      To the fringes gladly, I walk unadorned

      With gods and their creations

      With filth and disease

      Porcelina, she waits for me there

      With seashell hissing lullabyes

      And whispers fathomed deep inside my own

      Hidden thoughts and alibis

      My secret thoughts come alive

      Without a care in this whole world

      Without a care in this life

      It's what you take that makes it right

      And in my mind I'm everyone

      In my mind I'm everyone of you

      You make it right

      It's all allright

      You make it right

      Lyrics

      Bleed in your own light

      Dream of your own life

      I miss me

      I miss everything I'll never be

      And on, and on

      I torch my soul to show

      The world that I am pure

      Deep inside my heart

      No more lies

      A crown of horns

      An image formed deformed

      The mark I've borne

      A mark of scorn to you

      Consume my love, devour my hate

      Only powers my escape

      The moon is out, the stars invite

      I think I'll leave tonight

      So soon I'll find myself alone

      To relax and fade away

      Do you know what's coming down

      Do you know I couldn't stay free?

      I shall be free

      I shall be free

      I shall be free

      I shall be free

      I shall be free free

      Free of those voices inside me

      I shall be free

      I shall be free

      She didn't wanna be, she didn't wanna know

      She couldn't run away cause she was crazy

      She gave it all away, she saw her baby break

      And in the air it hung that she was dull razors

      And I said, I wanna fill you up, I wanna break you, I wanna give you up

      From one another, another one should come to one another

      No one should come between us

      Still I was lonely, and she was by my side, my one and only

      Knows that she could never hide

      I couldn't feel her, and it was just a game,

      Cause I was lonely and she was crazy

      Rat-tat-tat, ka boom boom, now take that, and just a bit of this

      Cause I'm a watcher, and I'm a doer of none

      Come to save you, cause you're all mine

      I hurt where I can't feel, I feel where I can't hurt

      I know where I can't know, I bleed for me and mine

      Ka-boom, a rat-tat-tat, and some good ole bliss

      Cause I'm a sister, and I'm a motherfuck

      I am made of shamrocks, I am made of stern stuff

      I am never enough, I am the forgotten child

      And I said I wanna fill you up, I wanna break you, I wanna give you up

      From one another, no one should ever come

      In between us, between us and our love

      Mary had a little lamb, her face was white as snow

      And everywhere that mary went I was sure to go

      Now mary's got a problem, and mary's not a stupid girl

      Mary's got some deep shit, and mary does not forget

      And this is how mary's garden grows, and this is how mary has her ghosts

      And into the eyes of the jackyl I say ka-boom

      Now we begin descent, to where we've never been

      There is no going back, this wasn't meant to last

      This is a hell on earth, we are meant to serve

      And she will never learn

      Bye bye, baby goodbye

      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

      Lyrics

      I fear that I am ordinary, just like everyone

      To lie here and die among the sorrows

      Adrift among the days

      For everything I ever said

      And everything I've ever done is gone and dead

      As all things must surely have to end

      And great loves will one day have to part

      I know that I am meant for this world

      My life has been extraordinary

      Blessed and cursed and won

      Time heals but I'm forever broken

      By and by the way...

      Have you ever heard the words

      I'm singing in these song?

      It's for the girl I've loved all along

      Can a taste of love be so wrong

      As all things must surely have to end

      And great loves will one day have to part

      I know that I am meant for this world

      And in my mind as I was floating

      Far above the clouds

      Some children laughed I'd fall for certain

      For thinking that I'd last forever

      But I knew exactly where I was

      And I knew the meaning of it all

      And I knew the the distance to the sun

      And I knew the echo that is love

      And I knew the secrets in your spires

      And I knew the emptiness of youth

      And I knew the solitude of heart

      And I knew the murmurs of the soul

      And the world is drawn into your hands

      And the world is etched upon your heart

      And the world so hard to understand

      Is world you can't live without

      And I knew the silence of the world

      Lyrics

      I hear your winter

      I hear you rain

      I've failed your summer ways

      And I feel no pain

      I hear what you want

      And I feel that way

      I hear what you want

      And I feel that way

      I hear you fade away

      And I hear you crawl

      I gave my life away

      And I feel no pain

      And I feel no pain

      And I feel no pain

      And I feel your pain

      And she was my lover so sweet

      And she was my angel

      And what I've recovered of me

      I put into a box underneath my bed

      When you lie in your bed

      And you lie to yourself

      When you lie in your bed

      And you lie to yourself

      Lie

      Lie

      Bang bang you're dead hole in your head

      Bang bang you're dead hole in your head

      Bang bang you're dead hole in your head

      Bang bang you're dead hole in your head

      I hear what you want

      And I feel that way

      I hear what you want

      And I feel that way

      (Alright, this take, don't give a fuck.)
