- 1 . The Everlasting Gaze
Lyrics
You know I’m not dead
You know I’m, you know I’m not dead
You know I’m not dead
Now you know where I’ve been
As you sleep, torn I am
Weighted down patiently
Born of love
You know I’m, you know I’m not dead
I’m just living in my head
Forever waiting on the ways of your desire
You always find a way
And through it all, into us all you move
Forgotten touch
Forbidden thought
We can never have enough
You know I’m not dead
You know I’m, you know I’m not dead
You know I’m not dead
Found below, the creatures scream
Stranglehold, a god machine
Begin to tear us out
What is hell
You know I’m, you know I’m not dead
I’m just the tears inside your head
Forever waiting on the ways of your desire
You always find a way
And through it all, into us all you move
Forgotten touch
Forbidden thought
We can never have enough
You know I’m not dead
We all want to hold in the everlasting gaze
Enchanted in the rapture of his sentimental sway
But underneath the wheels lie the skulls of every cog
The fickle fascination of an everlasting god
You know I’m not dead
I’m just living in my head
Forever waiting
Forever waiting a cruel death
You know I’m not dead
I’m just living for myself
Forever waiting
You know I’m not dead
You know I’m not dead
You know I’m not dead
You know I’m not dead
- 2 . Raindrops + Sunshowers
Lyrics
Rain falls on everyone
The same old rain
And I’m just trying to walk with you
Between the raindrops
I send my echo out
To get your love without
Obscured reflections of
My love
Rain falls on everyone
The same old rain
And I’m just trying to walk with you
Between the raindrops
I’ll save a prayer for you
So lost and longing too
Be dragged through dirty streets
Wrapped up in clean white sheets
And if you think they’ll watch you now
You should know they won’t
Rain falls on everyone
The same old rain
And I’m just trying to walk with you
Between the raindrops
And I’m just trying to walk with you
Between the raindrops
I send my echo out
To get your love without
Obscure reflections of
Of my secret love
Force down the words about
To get your love without
Obscured reflections of my love
And I’m just trying to talk to you
Between the raindrops
Rain falls on everyone
The same old rain
And I’m just trying to walk with you
Between the raindrops
Rain falls on everyone
The same old rain
And I’m just trying to walk with you
Between the raindrops
And I’m just trying to walk with you
Between the raindrops
- 3 . Stand Inside Your Love
Lyrics
You and me
Meant to be
Immutable
Impossible
It’s destiny
Pure lunacy
Incalculable
Inseparable
And for the last time
You’re everything that I want and asked for
You’re all that I dream
Who wouldn’t be the one you love
Who wouldn’t stand inside your love
Protected and the lover of
A pure soul
And beautiful
You
Don’t understand
Don’t feel me now
I will breath
For the both of us
Travel the world
Traverse the skies
Your home is here
Within my heart
And for the first time
I feel as though I am reborn in my mind
Recast as child and mystic sage
Who wouldn’t be the one you love
Who wouldn’t stand inside your love
For the first time
I’m telling how much I need and bleed for
Your every move and waking sound in my time
I’ll wrap my wrap my wire around your heart
And your mind
You’re mine forever now
Who wouldn’t be the one you love and live for
Who wouldn’t stand inside your love and die for
Who wouldn’t be the one you love
- 4 . I Of The Mourning
Lyrics
Radio, play my favorite song
Radio, radio
Radio, I’m alone
Radio
Radio, please don’t go
Radio
I peer through curtains on empty streets
Behind a wall of caller I.d.
No one’s out there
To hear if I care
About the troubles in the air
As I of the mourning now come
Pick up where my thoughts left off
Cause I’m home to die on my own
As my radio plays my favorite song
Radio, radio
Radio, don’t you know
Radio, radio
Radio, I’m alone
I’ve blown the dust off my guitars
In the attic with the stars
I read your letters to feel better
My tears upon the fading ink
Cause I of the mourning now come
Pick up where my thoughts left off
Cause I’m home to die on my own
As my radio plays my favorite song
Radio, radio
Radio, I’m alone
Radio, radio
Radio, please don’t go
I sit in the dark light
To wait for ghost night
To bring the past alive
To make a toast to life
Cause I have survived
What is it you want
What is it you want to change
What is it you want
What is it you want to change
What is it you want to change
Radio, radio, radio, radio
Radio, radio, radio, radio
Radio, radio, radio, radio
What is it you want
What is it you want to change
What is it you want
What is it you want to change
What is it you want to change - 5 . The Sacred And Profane
Lyrics
Give me tears
Give me love
Let me rest
Lord above
Send the bored
Your restless
The feedback-scarred
Devotionless
You’re all a part of me now
And if I fall
You’re all a part of me now
In the sun
You’re all a part of me now
You’re all a part of me now
Will our love ever be enough
Just in time to prove
Will our words ever be enough
Just in time to lose
Give me sight
And barren breast
Pure snow
And happiness
Give me time
Give me peace
And I will prove
My release
You’re all a part of me now
And if I fall
You’re all a part of me now
Trapped in the sun
You’re all a part of me now
You’re all a part of me now
Will our love ever be enough
Just in time to prove
Will our time ever be enough
Will our love ever be enough
You’re all a part of me now
And if I fall
You’re all a part of me now
In the sun
You’re all a part of me now
You’re all a part of me now
You’re all a part of me now
And if I fall
You’re all a part of me now
Trapped in the sun
You’re all a part of me now
Will our love ever be enough
Will our love ever be enough
Will our love ever be enough
Just in time to prove
- 6 . Try, Try, Try
Lyrics
Pop tart
What’s our mission
Do we know
But never listen
For too long
They held me under
But I hear
It’s almost over
In detroit
On a memphis train
Like you said
It’s down in the heat and the summer rain of
The automatic gauze of your memories
Down in the sleep at the airplane races
Try to hold on
To this heart
A little bit longer
Try to hold on
To this love
Aloud
Try to hold on
For this heart’s
A little bit colder
Try to hold on
To this love
Paperback scrawl your hidden poem
Written around the dried out flowers
Here we are still trading places
To try to hold on
Pop tart
Can you envision
A free world
Of clear division
For too long
They held us under
But I know
We’re getting over
In detroit
With the nashville tears
Like you said
It’s down in the heat with the broken numbers
Down in the gaze of solemnity
Down in the way you held together
To try to hold on
To this heart
A little bit closer
Try to hold on
To this love
Aloud
Try to hold on
For this heart’s
A little bit older
Try to hold on
To this love
Aloud
And we are still alive
Try to hold on
And we have survived
Try to hold on
And no one should deny
We try to hold on
To the pulse of a feedback current
Into the flow of the cryptic movement
Slapback kills the ancient remnants
That try to hold on
Try to hold on
To this heart
Alive
Try to hold on
To this love
Aloud
Try to hold on
And we are still alive
Try to hold on
And we have survived
Try to hold on
Pop tart
You never listen
Skinned knees
Try to hold on
Stop start
What’s our mission
Skinned knees
Try to hold on
- 7 . Heavy Metal Machine
Lyrics
If I were alive
If I were real
Would you survive
What would you feel
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
As sentimental as our broken dreams
Let me die for rock and roll
Let me die to save your soul
Let me die, let me die rock and roll
Let the world forgive the past
Let all the girls kiss the boys at last
Let me go, let me go rock and roll
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
We’re the metal, in their metal machines
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
If I were dead
Would my records sell
Could you even tell
Is it just as well
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
It’s elemental, to all the rust it brings
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Let me die for rock and roll
Let me die and save my soul
Let me go, let me go rock and roll
Let the world forgive the past
Let all the girls kiss the boys at last
Let me go, let me die rock and roll
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
We’re the metal, in their droning schemes
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Will I survive
Is it up to me
Could you understand
That it’s not yours to keep
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine - 8 . This Time
Lyrics
This time I need to know
I really must be told
If it’s over
It’s up to you, you know
The things you really want to hold
Are in pieces
Crashing down
Crashing down again
Crashing down
Crashing down my friends
I’ve got to move it on
I’ve got to sing my song
While I still can
Dispatch the last alarms
Hand out the last few charms
There’s no surprises
Only love
Only love can win
Crashing down
Crashing down again
Only love, yeah
Only love will win
Crashing down
Crashing down again
This time I need to know
I really must be told
That it’s over
I’ve lived my life alone
My every step fortold
To never linger
And yet it haunts me so
What are we letting go
Our spell is broken
Crashing down
Crashing down my friends
Crashing down
Crashing down again
Only love, yeah
Only love will be enough, yeah
Only love will win
For every chemical
You trade a piece of your soul
With no return
And who you think you know
Doesn’t know you at all
Their drain is needless
Someday we’ll wave hello
And wish we’d never waved goodbye
To this romance
We’ll drink up every line
And shoot up every word
Till it’s no more
Crashing down
Crashing down my friends
Only love
Only love can win
So cry these tears
We’ll cry as all
We’ve held so long
To fall apart
As the curtain falls
We bid you all goodnight
- 9 . The Imploding Voice
Lyrics
Everywhere you are
Is everywhere you’ve been
Just lost to the beat
Punching through your skin
You don’t know what to do
But still you wanna crawl
All through the broken glass
That’s everywhere you are
Your love must always be true
Your love must always be you
Everywhere you are
Anywhere you go
Even if you’re starved
It matters what you do
But if even if you’ve gone too far
You can follow you
Everywhere you are
And in your mind
You were alone
All this time
With everything you are
And every smile you wore
Still locked in your heart
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you are
Every single chard
Everywhere you are
You’re never too far
Cause anywhere you go
Even to the stars
All you have to do
Is play the part of who you are
The rest is up to you
Phase unwound
By yourself
Atom bomb
On the shelf, unsung
Pause of light
Pulse of life
New face dawns
Everywhere you are
And everywhere you go
Even if you’re down
Even if you’re low
It’s in the thought of you
It’s in the eyes of all
Astride a storried past
That’s everywhere you are
Your love must always be true
Your love must always be you
Everywhere you are
Anywhere you go
Even if you’re scarred
It’s all a part of you
But ever should you put it down
You can never lose me
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you are
- 10 . Glass And The Ghost Children
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 - 11 . Wound
Lyrics
There you are
As you always were
In bathing light
And naked blur
You’re a part of me
Eternal wone
My grand design
And setting sun
If you wait, I will wait
Taste, I will taste
If you love, I will love
Run, I will run
To my last breath
Last night I turned around and thought I saw myself turning
Inside the strangest dream of life unloved and cities burning
Awake in my arms
You cry unharmed
Our age of the hours
When they still devour all
So take it all
I doubt if we
Will know it’s gone
Cause we’ve been here
Since time began
Begged god awake
And make these plans
Wound opens
Reveal this broken man
And soon there’s notions
Of blood on his hands
If you wait, I will wait
Taste, I will taste
If you love, I will love
Run, I will run
To my last breath
Last night I turned around, I thought I saw myself turning
Last night I turned around and thought I watched the world ending
Inside the crushing I felt a pang, the tide was turning
Destroyed in the wake
The jealous ingrates
Will tear this world down
To spite god above
With his own love
With his own love
If you wait
If you wait
If you wait, I will wait
Taste, I will taste
If you love, I will love
Run, I will run
To my last breath
- 12 . The Crying Tree Of Mercury
Lyrics
This is the song I’ve been singing my whole life
I’ve been waiting like a knife
To cut open your heart
And bleed my soul to you
I did it all for you
You and you and you and you
This is the sound I’ve been making my whole life
I’ve been waiting for this night
To clear up all the talk
Although I’m selfish to a fault
Is it selfish, it’s you I want
You, I did it all for you
This love will stand as long as you
There’s really no excuse
I did it all for you
These are the tears I’ve been crying my whole life
Like an ocean of desire
I’m reaching through the noise
Across the dusk of time
Within the lilting lights
I am singing out to you
- 13 . With Every Light
Lyrics
Taking over, we’re taking over
Throw the weight up off your shoulders, now
That we can show our love
It’s almost over, it’s almost over
No more war and no more soldiers
To stand against his love
Away with all the troubles that you’ve made
Away with waiting for another day
Away
Look ma, the sun is shining on me
Impatient, in love, and aching to be
Could you believe in heaven
If heaven was all you had
Taking over, we’re taking over
Throw away your four leafed clovers
And stand beside this love
Away with everything you’ve grown to hate
Away with anything that holds you safe
Away
And every light I’ve found
Is every light that’s shining down on me
Every light I’ve found
Is every light that’s shining down on me
Every light I’ve found
Is every light that’s shining down on me
I’m never alone
Look ma, the sun is shining on me
Taking my time to do as I please
Could you believe in heaven
If heaven was all you had
The sun beaming, radiating
All the love we are creating
We are creating
And every light I’ve found
Is every light that’s shining down on me
Every light I’ve found
Is every light that’s shining down on me
Every light I’ve found
Is every light that’s shining down on me
Every light I’ve found
Is every light that’s shining down on me
I’m never alone
- 14 . Blue Skies Bring Tears
Lyrics
Unleash the armageddon
So all the children go to heaven
I sit by quiet still
With their pictures on my eyes
You’ll draw the guns you’re given
Write down the words as written
And never disturb the presence
Of resurrection crutch
And it’s about time
It’s about drawing near
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Descend the darkened stairways
Make hate with plastic playmates
And fire out remaining traces
Of your self esteem
Mainline the deepest secrets
Lick clean the dirty fingers
I am a stranger to you
As you are to yourself
And it’s about time
It’s about fear
Blue skies bring tears
Don’t you want me (don’t want you)
As I awake the city sight
We’ll watch the seasons die
Blue skies bring tears
Take me inside your body
Blue skies bring tears
Cover me with your soul
Blue skies bring tears
To the darkest recess
Blue skies bring tears
Is where I wish to go
Blue skies bring tears
You are the sweetest flower
Blue skies bring tears
That I have ever devoured
Blue skies bring tears
I ask for nothing given
Blue skies bring tears
For nothing in return
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears - 15 . Age Of Innocence
Lyrics
We dismiss
The backroads
And ride these streets
Unafraid
Resigned to
Scraping paint
From our bones
Unashamed
No more the eye upon you
No more the simple man
Desolation yes
Hesitation no
Desolation yes
Hesitation no
As you might have guessed
All is never shown
Desolation yes
Hesitation no
And in my prayers
I dream alone
A silent speech
To deaf ear
If you want love
You must be love
But if you bleed love
You will die love
No more the lie upon you
Cast in stone and autumn shade
Desolation yes
Hesitation no
Desolation yes
Hesitation no
As you might have sensed
We won’t make it home
Desolation yes
Hesitation no
Before the rites of spring
Come to mean all things
A little taste of what may come
A mere glimpse of what has gone
Cause for the moment we are free
We seek to bind our release
Too young to die, too rich to care
Too fucked to swear that I was there
Desolation yes
Hesitation no
Desolation yes
Hesitation no
As you might have guessed
We won’t make it home
Desolation yes
Hesitation no
