- 1 . Rock On
Lyrics
Hey kids, rock and roll
Rock on, ooh my soul
Hey kids, it’s no use sleepin’
Lost out, summertime blues
Jump up and die in your blue suede shoes
Hey kids, rock and roll
We’re gonna rock on
Where do we go from here
Which is the way that’s clear
Still looking for that blue jean baby queen
Prettiest girl I’ve ever seen
See her die on my movie screens every day
Rock on
Hey kids, rock and roll
Rock on, ooh my soul
Hey kids it’s no use dreamin’
Lost out and full of doubt
Shut up, cracked out
Hey kids, rock and roll
We’re gonna rock on
Where do we go from here
Which is the way that’s clear
Where do we go from here
Which is the way that’s clear
Still lookin’ for that blue jean baby queen
Prettiest girl I’ve never seen
See her die on my movie screens every day
Rock on
Rock on
Rock on
Rock on
And the cradle will rock
Yes, the cradle, the cradle will rock
I said rock on
Rock on
Everybody wants some
I want some too
Everybody wants some
Hey how about you
I said rock on
Rock on
Rock on
Rock on
Rock on
Rock on
Hey kids, rock and roll
We’re gonna rock on, rock on
To your song
Hey kids, rock and roll
We’re gonna rock on
Rock on
We’re gonna rock on, rock on, rock on
- 2 . 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
- 3 . Pug
Lyrics
Kiss and kill me sweetly
Come and drive me home
Drag the miles in me
I am yours alone
Inside where it’s warm
Wrap myself in you
Outside where I’m torn
Fight myself in two
In two
Into you
Desire me so deeply
Drain and kick me hard
Whisper secrets for me
Try to go too far
Inside where it’s warm
Wrap myself in you
Outside where I’m torn
Fight myself in two
In two
Into…
Please don’t change
Please don’t change at all
Bring your rain
Bring your rain to fall
Inside where it’s warm
Wrap myself in you
Outside where I’m torn
Fight myself in two
In two
Into you
Come and kiss me sweetly
Ride the telephone
Drag the miles to me
I am yours alone
Yours alone
Yours alone on the telephone
Yours alone looking for a kiss kiss
Yours alone
- 4 . 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 - 5 . 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 - 6 . 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 - 7 . Tonight, Tonight

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

Twilight fades through blistered avalon
The sky’s cruel torch on aching autobahn
Into the uncertain divine
We scream into the last divide
You make me real
You make me real
Strong as I feel
You make me real
Sheila rides on crashing nightingale
Intake eyes leave passing vapor trails
With blushing brilliance alive
Because it’s time to arrive
You make me real
You make me real
Strong as I feel
You make me real
Lately I just can’t seem to believe
Discard my friends to change the scenery
It meant the world to hold a bruising faith
But now it’s just a matter of grace
A summer storm graces all of me
Highway warm sing silent poetry
I could bring you the light
And take you home into the night
You make me real / lately I just can’t seem to believe
You make me real / discard my friends to change the scenery
Strong as I feel / it meant the world to hold a bruising faith
You make me real / but now it’s just a matter of grace
- 9 . 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

All your seven dreams
Are closer than you believe
As your things come undone
See you are the only one
Flower, seize the hour, the day away
Waiting, waiting for your way, away
When you wake up you’re away
Throwing your life away
Someday, sorry coming home
Sorry, snail
What you wait for
Flower, the pain will wash away, away
When the sunshine climbs through your window
Into your bed
When you wake up you’re away
Throwing your life away
Someday, sorry coming home
Sorry, snail
Yeah, live in my home
Flower, seize the hour
Flower, away
What you wait for
Flower, taste the sunshine

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 - 12 . 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

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 - 14 . Bullet With Butterfly Wings

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 - 15 . Once In A Lifetime
Lyrics
And you may find yourself living in a shotgun shack
And you may find yourself in another part of the world
And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife
And you may ask yourself, well, how did I get here?
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money’s gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
And you may ask yourself, how do I work this
And you may ask yourself, where is that large automobile
And you may tell yourself, this is not my beautiful house
And you may tell yourself, this is not my beautiful wife
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money’s gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
Same as it ever was
Water dissolving, and water removing
There is water at the bottom of the ocean
Carry the water at the bottom of the ocean
Remove the water at the bottom of the ocean
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money’s gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
Under the rocks and stones, there is water underground
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money’s gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
And you may ask yourself, what is that beautiful house
And you may ask yourself, where does that highway go
And you may ask yourself, am I right, am I wrong
And you may tell yourself, my god, what have I done
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money’s gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
Under the rocks and stones, there is water underground
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money’s gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
Same as it ever was
