Lyrics
I am one as you are three
Try to find messiah in your trinity
Your city to burn
Your city to burn
Try to look for something
In your city to burn, you'll burn
Am I as I seem?
I'm down
Down, so down
Time is right for a guiding light
Try to turn to reasons in your bitter life
Your city to burn
Your city to burn
Try to look for something
In your city to burn, you'll burn
See you, don't you just want to
See you, I am one
See you, don't you just want to
See you
See you, don't you just want to
See you, I am one
See you, don't you just want to
See you, I am one

Lyrics
Oh yeah, another day
Oh yeah, gotta play
What it is, it never was
I don’t care to give enough
My boredom has outshined the sun
It’s so down low
I just want to have some little fun
Oh yeah, another day
Oh yeah, what a waste
What it is, it never was
I don’t care, or give a fuck
My boredom has outshined the sun
It’s so down low
I just want to have some little fun
Bring me down
Bring me down

Additional Info: From 5:27-30, "listen for the police car go by" (Billy Corgan on Pisces Iscariot liner notes). "I met this girl in Dallas when we were on tour with the chili peppa's and that was where I got the idea for the name for the song because when she said her name I thought wow, what a great title for a song. 2 1/4 years later I run into this same girl at a party and I say did you hear that song we recorded using your name, Starla? And she said, no my name is Darla but hey Starla, Darla whatever it doesn't matter, so there you go. Never trust a girl who ends up with well I can't say." (Billy Corgan on Pisces Iscariot liner notes).
Lyrics
I’m in here
Please take me home
Starla dear, I’m all alone
When you can’t decide what’s on your mind, it’s clear
I’m near
Starla dear
To disappear takes some more time
Starla dear, you’re on my mind
Soon, soon I’ll be leaving
Soon, soon I’ll be leaving
I hear all you’re saying
I hear all you’re failing
I’m in here
Please take me home
Starla dear, I’m all alone
When you can’t decide what’s on your mind, it’s clear
I’m here
Starla dear
Serve yourself
No one else can do for you like you
No one else fails like me
In my eyes I burn alive
Fly like a bird
No more words just you and I
High in the sky
