Faster
Horny & burned out now is how it always ends for me
Chemicals wear me down
in your summertime bacchanalian
I saw you go Faster
Than the morning comes
She walks away like a lady
It's always the fallen ones
I think are always going to save me
I saw you go Faster
I want to get off one time and not apologize
You got to steal the time of a life that's passing by
In bed she flexes her knees to try and abate the feeling
She mouths the words please to the poster on the ceiling
I saw you go Faster
Right in front of me
She stares at him so madly
She's got the nerve to say
She wants to fuck that boy so badly
I saw you go Faster
I want to get off one time and not apologize
You got a steal the time of a life that's passing by
I want to get off one time and look you in the eyes
I want to get off one time, get off one time
I was hoping you would be waiting there for me lately
I was hoping you would be waiting there for me
I was hoping you would be waiting there for me lately
I was hoping you would be waiting there for me
I was hoping you would be waiting there for me lately
But you're not the kind who would be waiting, not for anybody
You're not the kind
who would be waiting there for anybody
not even me
ooh
Just one time
ooh
I could go off right now
I want to get off one time and not apologize
You got to steal the time of a life that's passing by
Not for sale(x3)
Blinded
Just an old friend coming over
Now to visit you and
That's what I've become
I let myself in
Though I know I'm not supposed to but
I never know when I'm done
And I see you fogging up the mirror
Vapor around your body glistens in the shower
And I wanna stay right here
And go down on you for an hour
And stay and let the day just fade away
In wild dedication
Take the moment of hope
And let it run
And never look back
At all the damage we have done now
To each other
To each other
To each other
But when I see you
It's like I'm staring down the sun
And I'm blinded
There's nothing left to do
and still I see you
I never believe that things would happen for a reason
And they never go as planned
I wanted to thank you for a vision that was lost that you returned
But you're past where you understand
Now her appetite is blown
Little else is known
'Cept she's a little angry
Grabs a towel, looks away
The heat fades with the day
And I fall down on what to say
oh something clean, let me be clever
Hey oh well, whatever
But that's not what I mean
Where we've been has left us burnt still
I wont turn now from a fight
You know I'll never win
So when I see you
you know all the things I've done
and I am blinded
Like I'm staring down the sun
When I see you
When I see you
When I see you
It's like I'm staring down the sun
Yeah!
(Hey! I'm Blinded!)
Time it passes and it tells us what we're left with
We become the things we do
Me, I'm a fool spent from defiance, yeah you got me but
I didn't give up on you
Icarus is not a t-shirt or a swan song, no
He is born again and
It's not easy being me
When I can't promise I will mend
Or bend when you believe
That we are fixed now from our birth
And I've just fallen back to earth
Still you know I'll try again
Cause I believe that we are lucky
We are golden We have stolen manners in the days when we were one
So when I see you
In spite of all that we've become
I'm still blinded
But I'm still staring down the sun
When I see you
When I see you
When I see you
When I see you
Oh yeah
I'm still staring down the sun
Oh yeah
I'm still staring down the sun
Oh yeah
Well I'm still staring down the sun
I'm blinded When I see you
Forget Myself
Could you believe it
Those sapphire eyes
The brilliant girl with the famous thighs
Then the cameras click then we are stars
Laughing in the back of chauffeured cars
Phone call rings and your voice is desire
Then winter moves into summer fires
I promised you what's ours is ours
Somewhere backstage with Sean and Lars
I go crazy when you walk in the room
I laugh at myself with the girl in bloom
The taste of sex couldn't be too soon
All afternoon then
LA parties in the phony lands
Phony grabs with the manicured hands
I always thought you were pretty like a whip
Should have watched my step
Cause I keep on forgetting myself
And I keep on forgetting myself
Who am I we both don't know
Time ticks by, where did it go
You always knew
Where you were going to
So sweetly you said
Please come with you
The biggest fear running thru my head
You said you loved me you know what you said
I was floating, did it go to my head
We always sleep with the dogs on the bed
LA parties and the vodka fizz
This is not my life or maybe it is
I keep on forgetting myself
And I keep on forgetting myself
Who am I, we both don't know
Time ticks by, where did it go
I made you doubt me
You're better off without me
Think I am looking over your shoulder
Cause there's someone younger and you're feeling older
You're crazy and you never faded
I don't want to be so complicated
See my life come undone
Watch it go and let the damage run
I'd change the song now if I could
In the slickness of your blood
I keep on forgetting myself
And I keep on forgetting myself
Whose that guy, I don't know
Where did you go
Danger
I met you at the barricade
It's fever pitch where the crowd had gathered
You said the bow is breaking
You want to get some coffee or something
Float by the crowd that scatters
I found my people and nothing else matters
Bullhorns feed back in stormy skies
No one listens but it's so hot when you try
You've got a taste for danger
It turns you on
Just take a look in your face
I know what's going on
(What's going on)
You like the taste of danger
Tiptoe through the riots
Vandals laced and braced for action
No sense, no consequence
You're a green stick fracture
Bounce back at you
You've got a taste for danger
So bring it on
Just take a look in your face
I know what's going on|
(What's going on)
You like the taste of danger
Beggars stare at the brand new sneakers on the
Anarchists and celebrity speakers
These are improbable days my friends
Tomorrow's mundane
All good things must end
And the cops told the crowd they must disperse
Your pretty eyes fall as the tear gas burst
Here come the horses and we move along
Promise I'll see you but the moment is gone
You're shocked when the spray can splatters
Deliver us from the chumps and suckers
You and me killing time in the present tense
Bound together by someone to fight against
You've lost the taste for danger
And now it's gone
Just take a look in your face
I know that something's wrong
You lost the taste for danger
I used to be a dissident citizen
I used to be a dissident citizen
I used to be a dissident citizen
You've lost the taste for danger
And now it's gone
(I used to be a dissident citizen)
You've lost the taste for danger
And now it's gone
(I used to be a dissident citizen)
You've lost the taste for danger
So bring it on
What's going on
(I used to be a dissident citizen)
You've lost the taste for danger
Crystal Baller
I close my eyes and I see a freak
I think it's me and I'm afraid to speak
I keep on going from week to weakness way out in a line.
I dream of lives we could have had before
But the heat is broke down open doorways.
Friends of yours will tell me more what happens in your mind
Can we try and take the high road
Though we don't know where it ends
I want to be your Crystal Baller
I want to show you how it ends
Macramé queens in the afternoon
And I'm in tune or did I speak too soon
Punch drunk on somebody's joke
What happened to the time
A footnote in your dance of days
In my mind that record still plays
Still wonder what the fuck it says, hoping there is time
Can we try and take the high road though
We don't know where it ends
I want to be your Crystal Baller
I can show you how it ends
Can we talk about tomorrow
And the promise that it brings
I want to be your Crystal Baller
I want to show everything
I wonder what the whole things for
I wonder what the whole things for
In the moment you were screaming at me I must have been somebody else
And the patrons of the pub keep singing
Macramé queens in the afternoon
And I'm in tune or did I speak too soon
Punch drunk up on somebody's joke
what happened to the time
I dream of lives we could have had before
where the heat is broke down open doorways
Like waiting for a trick to score, It seems that way some times
I wonder where were all going, I'm homesick for your primal knowing
I wonder why the wind keeps blowing you through my mind
Try and take the high road
Remember we were friends
I want to be your Crystal Baller
I want to be your diamond ring
(some get it, some must wait a while
some get it, some must wait a while)
The one I never gave you and the promise that it brings
Let me be your Crystal Baller
I will show you everything.
I'll be your Crystal Baller
My Hit And Run
Feel the speed through the intersection
In sheets of rain I seek out cars
Hands in love with handlebars
Ride alone to the pub in the dark
I get a little wet but I don't have to park
And the lights they start flashing green and red as I ride
A car turns left and I slide
I can't turn back
I make contact
Blinkers smash into a mosaic
And I start flying
Always think we get more time
Now flying through the air
Maybe living maybe dying
In this motor crash it's you who comes to mind
Don't we always wish we had more time
I'm thrust slow mo through time and space
Details smash and
I protect my face
And then I see yours
And go to a time when we just knew
Mister death in the car below
Doesn't even slow
And away he goes
In the majesty of a motor crash
You skid into my darkness forming
Sex and death, heartbreak and strife
Well they give no warning
Always think we get more time
Now I'm flying through the air
And it's you who comes to mind
In the red lights and cathedrals there's a sign
Don't we always wish we had more time
Here it comes, my hit and run
Always think we get more time
Then you're flying through the air
With someone on your mind
And the shattered glass reflections there's a sign
Cause you were there
And I wish we had more time
I come down hard and roll to my feet
And rain washes blood now off concrete
People turn away and I just had to laugh
Cause I'm still flying
Living and dying
Always think we get more time
You're flying through the air
With someone on your mind
And this motorcycle crash, it is a sign
Cause you were there
And I wish we had more time (you were there)
Thank you mister death for what he's done
Cause I got to walk away from my hit and run (you were there)
Mysteries are not so empty now as they seemed
Cause I saw you
At my hit and run
At my hit and run
Misfits
Hey bro props at the after show
Can you tell me where the greenbuds grow?
I'd like to say you turned my life around
I lost myself outside again
With the sound running through my head
Drowned out way out in the crowd
and the crowd goes singing
My people are the misfits
The ones that don't fit in
With the smile I know it comes within
I can feel you in the corners laughing when the lightings low
They say
Tick tick. tell me where the time goes
Oh life, you know it moves much too slow
Tick tick tell me where the time goes
Those are the ones for me
Those are the ones for me
The misfits, the freaks, the enemy, you and me
Those are the ones for me
Those are the ones for me
The misfits, the freaks, the enemy, you and me
My people are the misfits
I won't let you down
I'm dizzy from whatever we just passed around
I bleed for the moments when we're here
And we're all around
They say
Tick tick. tell me where the time goes
Oh life, you know it moves much too slow
Tick tick tell me where the time goes
Those are the ones for me
Those are the ones for me
The misfits, the freaks, the enemy, you and me
Those are the ones for me
Those are the ones for me
The misfits, the freaks, the enemy, you and me
Those are the ones for me
Those are the ones for me
The misfits, the freaks, the enemy, you and me
Those are the ones for me
Those are the ones for me
The misfits, the freaks, the enemy, you and me
Bring it all down, they say
(Alright, alright)
Bring it all down, they say
(Alright, alright)
Those are the ones for me
Those are the ones for me
The misfits, the freaks, the enemy, you and me
Those are the ones for me
Those are the ones for me
The misfits, the freaks, the enemy, you and me
The misfits, the freaks, the enemy, you and me
Can't Get Away
I miss the sand on the concrete floor
I miss the way it was before
no one even knew me
your eyes looked right through me
And I'm taking off your clothes
And you bloom like a rose
I can't get away from you
I can't get away from you
I, I, I
And where the ocean meets the land
Is like the sliding of your hand
Prickles up my skin
And I can feel the changing weather
Ride alone along that coast
Sense memories of your ghost
Away from you
I can't get away from you
I can't get away from you
I can't get away from you
I, I, I
Deliver me, shut me up
Deliver me
Give into me, Release
Deliver me, deliver me
Through the airport corridors
In magazines in stores
If I see your face once more
Cause you know I can't ignore it
I recognize that pose
When you bloomed like a rose
I can't get away from you
I can't get away from you
I can't get away from you
I can't get away from you
I can't get away from you
The jeep gets broke on a blown out road
And I'm a tourist with a real light load
Will the government hold another month away
Missed our places where we always stay
(I can't get away from you)
Funny how we always pick these spots
Feeling like a have in the land of have nots
Sleeping on cots
Wishing that I had some tater-tots
And there's postcards written
I know I'll never send
The moment is gone and won't come again
I ride with souls who find no peace
Still I look to you to find release, find release, fine release
And the travelers return
Through the panic doors
(I can't get away from you)
Walking through the airport corridors
(I can't get away from you)
Welcome back now from the foreign shores
(I can't get away from you)
And I walk alone
And the ghost that I carry is yours
Tiger shark is azure blue
I hope the vision you had returns to you
Wake For Young Souls
Today I found my soul
I felt it die inside of me, yeah
So I turn to you
Life is like that you know.
I have your face in a photo in high school
When you were alive, but that's all I have
And I can't remember who I was myself then
And it doesn't help
Still I looked to you as a friend
To tell me
Who we are now, who we are
It's who we are now, who we are
Where does time go now on a wake for young souls? (2x)
Like a lullaby you sing oh ooh oh ooh oh ooh
Well the wind that blows
It's blowing colder
And the child that grows
She's growing older
And the friends we know
They'll turn a shoulder
But the friends we know
They're growing colder so
It's who we are now, who we are
It's who we are now, who we are
Where does time go now on a wake for young souls?
You tell me, who we are now, who we are
It's who we are now, who we are
Oh no, on a wake for young souls
Na na na na na na... (where's my soul?)x3
Cycle of the moon brings blood to the woman
In the blood of the woman brings birth of a child
Child grow up
Keep forgetting something
Birth of a child comes someplace while you
Even grey days beat the shade to wean
Unbodied unsouled unheard unseen
Let the gift be grown in the time to call our own
Let the gift be sewn before the windows closing
Truth is natural like a wind that blows
Follow the direction no matter where it goes
So it shall be the earth and the sea
Let the truth blow like a hurricane through me
Oh ooh oh ooh oh ooh oooh...
If I've been cold, if I've spoken in anger
To have been bold
Forgive me
You know I don't see your mother
Not like before
Though she hasn't forgotten
She doesn't like to be reminded anymore
Annie got married
It didn't come without tears
Like the day you died I had laughter for these years
So it's who we are now, who we are
It's who we are now, who we are
Where does time go now on a wake for young souls now
It's who we are now, who we are
It's who we are now, who we are
Whoa no on a wake for young souls
Other things we know
Are gonna fall away from me
Like a grain of sand, slips through a good friend's hand.
Palm Reader
Just give me a call when you feel better
But you never do and I'm just another debtor
To some palm reader
Whose got her hands mixed up
Palm reader's breath smells of brandy and cigarettes
As she sells me and sweet forgets,
She needs something to get her through
She runs a scam like me and you
Yeah me and you
Freud said that love was a good psychosis
But I don't know I've had too many doses
He's a creep and we all know that
He probably made it up
Believe in me and this lie
Tell me everything will be all right
Cause it's so good to believe
But don't turn my hope into a weapon
I kept your sweater till the scent was gone
Wrapped up in my hands when the days were long
But I'm still sniffing
I walk alone in the concrete with the living
Where pigeons fly till they gather round the fallen ones,
They don't know why neither do I...
Neither do I
Neither do I
Neither do I...
Believe in me
And this lie
Tell me everything will be alright
Cause it's so good to believe
We could turn it all around in a night
You and I
Yeah it's so good
But you turn my hope into a weapon
Yeah you turn my hope into a weapon
There's no one to trust except maybe the two of us
But that's in the past the place where I'm living is haunting broken dreams
I read the horoscopes in magazines
Especially yours in the sign of the Leo
The regal ones but man you let your claws show
Oh it's so slow, when will they let me go
Let me go
Let me go
Let me go
Believe in me
And this lie
Tell me everything will be all right
Cause it's so good to believe
We could turn it all around in a night
You and I
Yeah it's so good
But you turn my hope into a weapon
Yeah you turn my hope into a weapon
Self Righteous
Everyone is so self-righteous
Lift your head again and try this
If you want this, I do
And I want this, but I can't break through
And I can see you begin to glow
Everyone is so self-righteous
Get up everyone
Were on our own now
Lift your head again try this
And feel you, I do
And I want this but I can't break through
And your burning lights red and blue
Everyone is so self-righteous
Where have you sinners gone?
All you sinners
What's ours is ours
And were all alone
(Where have you sinners gone?)
What's ours is ours
And outside rain
(Where have you sinners gone?)
It's just a shower
(All of you sinners)
And then I feel you breathe
(Where have you sinners gone?)
And I let go the hours
(all of you sinners)
And I feel your skin
(Where have you sinners gone?)
And I let you in
(All you sinners)
And that's my dream
(Where have you sinners gone?)
Again and again
I feel the hours
Sliding by
(Everyone is so self-righteous)
Get up on your own, now
Way up on a low(?), now
Lift your head again and try this
Do you want this, in you
You're the only thing that's real
And we don't need to beg or steal
Everyone is so self-righteous
Company
Start your engines
Can we get the chemicals in
Cause anything's better than this
Mix it up with vicadin
Cause anything's better than this
Little cuts on your wrist,
To try and get back the feeling
And no real friendships exists
That would be an understatement
Tell me the reason
(Cannot show up)
Friends you knew before
(Hello, how have you been?)
This is your season
(Oh I give up)
Just show up
(I can't knock on your door)
Cause I keep bad company
I'm trouble
So go on stay away from me
I play the villain
You don't know where we've been
Lining em up again
Start your engines
Can we get the chemicals in
Old english is making me manic
I go to SuicideGirls again
To check on anything I missed
The stitches don't even begin
To even stop up the bleeding
Can we get the chemicals in
Cause anything's better than this
The city is dying
(At least to me)
The city is dead now
(My kingdom for a friend)
Are you even trying
(To find some peace)
Don't need a reason
(I get some living in)
Cause I keep bad company
I'm in trouble
Last chance stay away from me
I play the villain
You don't know where we've been
Lining em up again
Keep saying this will end
I keep bad company
I'm in trouble
Keep saying this will end
Lining em up again
You know I'll never change
Lining em up again
Start your engines
Good Man
If you ever find a way to forgive me
If you ever find a way to put this all to rest
Because I'm hanging on your dress now like a little boy
When all that you wanted, all that you wanted
Was a good man
Alright
Right in the middle of another big fight
Boom back another one tonight
Blood never forgets but who protects the memories when we bleed each other from the vein
And if you ever find a way to make this interesting
If I ever find a way to stop disintegrating
Into pieces that I was, that you destroy
When all that you wanted, all that you wanted
Was a good man
Alright
Right in the middle of another big fight
Go to bed it's getting light out
Why do you, why do you, why do you
Always find me in the places when I'm coming down
And how do you do it when I'm overwhelmed by a violet sky?
And we fly in decayed orbit 66 thousand miles an hour goes by
When we kissed, and only now do I feel your mouth
Like an ache you never knew
And it was right in front of you
How do you do it, roots in the soil untangled
Releasing in sweet summer oil still I recoil like mace
In all the little moments I pushed you away that I can't erase
Every moment overflows with power, 66 thousand miles an hour
If you ever find a way to forgive me
If you ever find a way to put this all to rest
Because I am hanging on your dress now like a little boy
When all that you wanted, all that you wanted
Was a good man
All that you wanted, all that you wanted
Was a good man
Was a good man
Was a good man
Was a good man
Was a good man
