      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

      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 ax 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

      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

      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

      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

      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

      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

      Cast the pearls aside, of a simple life of need
      Come into my life forever
      The crumbled cities stand as known
      Of the sights you have been shown
      Of the hurt you call your own
      Love is suicide
      The empty bodies stand at rest
      Casualties of their own flesh
      Afflicted by their dispossession
      But no bodies ever knew
      Nobody’s
      No bodies felt like you
      Nobody’s
      Love is suicide
      Now we drive the night, to the ironies of peace
      You can’t help deny forever
      The tragedies reside in you
      The secret sights hide in you
      The lonely nights divide you in two
      All my blisters now revealed
      In the darkness of my dreams
      In the spaces in between us
      But no bodies ever knew
      Nobody’s
      No bodies felt like you
      Nobody’s
      Love is suicide

      Lyrics

      Ain’t it funny how we pretend we’re still a child
      Softly stolen under our blanket skies
      And rescue me from me, and all that I believe
      I won’t deny the pain
      I won’t deny the change
      And should I fall from grace here with you
      Will you leave me too?
      Carve out your heart for keeps in an old oak tree
      And hold me for goodbyes-and-whispered lullabyes
      And tell me I am still
      The man I’m supposed to be
      I won’t deny the pain
      I won’t deny the change
      And should I fall from grace here with you
      Will you leave me too?
      Too late to turn to turn back now, I’m running out of sound
      And I am changing, changing
      And if we died right now, this fool you love somehow
      Is here with you
      I won’t deny the pain
      I won’t deny the change
      And should I fall from grace here with you
      Would you leave me too?

      Lyrics

      Lover lover let’s pretend
      We’re born as innocents
      Cast into the world
      With apple eyes
      To wish wish dangerous
      My dear delirious
      To try and leave
      The rest of us behind
      Shot full of diamonds
      And a million years
      The disappointed disappear
      Like they were never here
      Kiss kiss all of this
      The hiss that we had missed
      And understand what can’t be understood
      Sear those thoughts of me
      Alone and unhappy
      I never liked me anyway
      If by chance
      Or circumstance
      We should fail
      Don’t be so sad
      Shot full of diamonds
      And a million years
      The disappointed disappear
      Like they were never here
      In a dream
      We are connected
      Siamese twins
      At the wrist
      And then I knew we’d been forsaken
      Expelled from paradise
      I can’t believe them
      When they say that it’s alright
      Words can’t define what I feel inside
      Who needs them?
      Caught with this virus of my mind
      I give in to my disease, of my needs
      To my disease, of my needs
      She really loves to break
      Her dad says its OK
      She really loves to break
      And give it all away
      Her ma says she’s afraid
      What more can she fake
      She really needs to break
      And give herself away
      She gave it all away
      She gave it all away
      She gave it all away
      We really love the USA

      As long as there’s some money
      Who wants that honey?

      Cannot help but believe this is true
      Tell me all of your secrets

      Should have listened when I was told
      Who wants honey

      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

      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

      Fool enough to almost be it
      Cool enough to not quite see it
      Doomed
      Pick your pockets full of sorrow
      And run away with me tomorrow
      June
      We’ll try and ease the pain
      But somehow we’ll feel the same
      Well, no one knows
      Where our secrets go
      I send a heart to all my dearies
      When your life is so, so dreary
      Dream
      I’m rumored to the straight and narrow
      While the harlots of my perils
      Scream
      And I fail
      But when I can, I will
      Try to understand
      That when I can, I will
      Mother weep the years I’m missing
      All our time can’t be given
      Back
      Shut my mouth and strike the demons
      That cursed you and your reasons
      Out of hand and out of season
      Out of love and out of feeling
      So bad
      When I can, I will
      Words defy the plans
      When I can, I will
      Fool enough to almost be it
      And cool enough to not quite see it
      And old enough to always feel this
      Always old, I’ll always feel this
      No more promise no more sorrow
      No longer will I follow
      Can anybody hear me
      I just want to be me
      When I can, I will
      Try to understand
      That when I can, I will

      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

      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

      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.)

      Lyrics

      Goodnight, to every little hour that you sleep tight
      May it hold you through the winter of a long night
      And keep you from the loneliness of yourself
      Heart strung is your heart frayed and empty
      Cause it’s hard luck, when no one understands your love
      It’s unsung, and I say
      Goodnight, my love, to every hour in every day
      Goodnight, always, to all that’s in your heart
      Goodnight, may your dreams be so happy and your
      Head lite with the wishes of a sandman and a
      Night light, be careful not to let the bedbugs
      Sleep tight nestled in your covers
      The sun shines but I don’t
      A silver rain will wash away
      And you can tell, it’s just as well
      And you can tell, it’s just as well
      Goodnight, my love, to every hour in every day
      Goodnight, always to all that’s pure that’s in your heart
