The Greatest Club
03:50
|

There's no
greater club
than the one
that I'm in
to you
I seem
to know
everything,
everything
All that I do
seems of great
consequence
as I walk
through the room
you just stare
in silence
There's no
better spell
than the one
you're under
your heart
it beats
at the
sight of me
sight of me
It's no danger to me
if you stay
or if you leave
here your voice
quivering
cheeks are flush
you're too sweet

So Gone
04:40

I scream about you every day
Scream about you as I'm walking away
I want to see you touching me
Want you to touch me right now
Right here
Right here
Right here
Let's get out of here
Let's get out of here
I don't mind sleeping in my car
Let's get out of here
Let's get out of here
I don't mind if we starve
Well I don't seem myself everyday
Cause these skies make me nervous
I don't always dream about running away
Cause this town knows how to keep me
Keep me down
Keep me down
Keep me down
Let's get out of here
Let's get out of here
I don't mind living in my car
Let's get out of here
Let's get out of here
I don't mind if we starve
These scars won't go away
They stain the skin all over me
One of these days I'll be gettin' paid
And we can run away together
We'll be gone
So gone
So gone
We'll be gone
We'll be gone
This town won't remember our names
We'll be gone
We'll be gone
We will never return again

Altars To Myself
04:07
|
|||
|
You can't
respect me
cause you say I respect
nothing
yeah I won't
kneel down
at altars
to myself
I won't
believe you
I won't believe in anything on
faith alone
regardless
of how revered
it is
amongst my friends
The shock
that life just gets
harder and harder
was swallowed
a long time ago
You won't
forget me
cause you said I
was something else
a critic
of all
that you held
close
Said I live
in a void
a vacuum of
meaning
but I'd rather
still be searching
than to have
closed my eyes

Spirals
03:22
|
|||
|
We've gone around together
We're going nowhere
We closed our eyes
We've gone around in spirals
We're going nowhere
In these dire times
My flowers bear curses
Just like fingers under water
Rituals grow old
We've gone around in spirals
We've become sea glass
Our bodies worn down
We've gone around in spirals
Swimming in a pool
The waves are endless
We've gone around in spirals
We are lovers
Lovers who can't unwind

Where To Be
03:03
|
|||
|
Where to be
With no trans-
parency
all these images
seem blurred
and confused
Melt to my
feet
make me feel
complete
for a
moment
Where to be
will I ever
be free
and if I am
will it always
seem
fleeting
Golden trees
silent memories
all this pulling
all this entropy
Where to be
isn't clear to me
all the things
that I loved
are now
the things I
Hate

Fantasy
04:35

Is the fantasy
always better
than what
it really is?
Ambivalence
eats me up
if I even
ask the question
Is my fantasy
my problem?
Would my grief
otherwise
just turn
to tenderness?
I wanna know
Can you teach me?
please?
Should I
torture you
by saying
that I love you
or just
go on believing
that the
best love
is one
that never happens?
Which is righteous
I don't know
but the righteous
have always been
disgraced
I wanna know something
Can you teach me?
please?
Is the fantasy
always better
than what
it really is?
Ain't it beautiful
to know
that it all
anyday
could be
over

Young Truants
03:40
|
|||
|
I remember
the days you'd
get drunk
and feel like
you were God
though mostly
you were not
When living the
dream
was just
something they all
told themselves
me and you young
truants
were doing it
and just hoping to
not get caught
Found your lost
gold leaf
letter
said come visit
you're no fun
but you're my
favorite downer
I just laid
in the shade
of your overcast
disdain
On that bright
sunny day
my misgivings
they were
nowhere
they meant
nothing

Never Goodbye
03:54
|
|||
|
How can you say
I was just playing
a cruel
heartless game
That feeling you get
like everyone
everyone's under ground
that feeling you get
like everything
everything's void of sound
a sick carress
tells you
she will never never
be your man
it's all with a gun
pointing
every inch and every inch of you
a point of view
that no one can deny
You used to say
I was your favorite way
favorite way to lie
lie lie lie lie
You made me feel like
I was to blame
but things have changed
and now I don't speak your name
We teased ourselves till we bled
we bled only shame
I want you to know
that I'm
all right
but you're
You're
dead to me now
you're
dead to me know
Silly little boy
oh what a pity
oh what a shame
without you I'm
perfectly
perfectly happy
I love myself
more than
you know how
you don't know how
to love
me
or anyone
I don't love you
anymore
not anymore
oh ----

Submission
04:20
|

|
How acquainted you are
with the value of submission
how easily you laugh
at the absurdity of love
how quick
you were
to believe
that I was rightly vain
you were searching for an idol babe
and now you think it's me
How graceful you fall
and freely surrender your
freedom
did you really want love
or just something to lead you
life is hard without an object babe
but it's not in me
you love it cause
you love it
and not
cause you know
what it means

Sandy Shores
04:17
|
|||
|
I drive and drive and drive alone
I'm not looking for anything
I'm just looking for anyone
anyone like you
I walk along the sandy shore
I see myself in each shell
tiny worlds collapsing and
closing in on me
I fall asleep in my bed
I dream of a fountain
silver glass escapes the top
pulling in around me
pulling softly
