The Biggest Liar In Town
02:34
|
|||
|
Roaming the streets at night with a heart
Is it safe?
Under these circumstances it's impossible to explain
Now that we're such a bunch of adults
I was going there for real
Soot may burst from the funnel, well now
What's there for me?
More than a harmless crush, who's to blame
anyway?
Under these circumstances it's useless to explain

Life's A Joke

I thought it was fine
I thought we were good.
The way that it sounds
and the way that it should.
There were no more
sights from the shore.
We sank like a rock
and that's the end of it all
and the end of it all
that's the law.
To get back from the cynical days.
Silent and still
So this is me.
The tension of pills
I think you should leave.
I thought you had taste.
I guess I was wrong.
I miss the face.
The face had it all
and I think that is all.
To fall.
To get back from the cynical days.

Your gaudy smile
My reptile eyes
I'm awake
That poisoned stream
The stench of dreams
I'm awake
Lowering the standards
already below the belt
It's so late
All that time
we were pretending how to laugh
Oh I never thought I'd get that high
Even though my roles were from such
a narrow scale
Oh this life so humiliating
Bled white sky
left behind
She's awake
That hungry stare
that points nowhere
She's awake
Rushing through the darkness
already above the hope
It's so late
I'm so sorry sister
See the part of the deal
was to never wash it away
My warpainted sister
See the part of the deal
was to never wash it away
I'm awake
She's awake
It's so late

Wrong Kind Of Evil
03:48
|
|||
|
We let our heads melt in this hideous heat
I was so eager to please
Money well spent at least
I try to glue my soul into your dream
Wrong kind of evil
a true nonbeliever
I made myself so clear
Wrong kind of evil
a true nonbeliever
and it won’t go
anywhere
You said I’m holding you back
so I’m letting you go
We gave up on everything
It was my turn to sing
Money well spent don’t you think?
I try to remind you
Don’t forget how to blink

Keying Cars

Countless companions
Still someone's in charge
Somewhere a long time ago
there were two little kids
keying cars
So what are you afraid of?
Does it still follow you around?
May days they haven't been very well
but at least I've learnt how to smile
and how to disappear in style
Worthless without it
but too much to prove
I don't know how to begin
but the song demands to
"get into the groove"
Keep up the good work
I think we're almost there
We're digging a hole pretty deep
but I get to retrain it
and you don't care if
All the right people
get what they deserve
As if it still functions
the way that it should
You like to watch it
gasping for air
it's well understood
Times can be different
and people can change
We could be friends after all
But don't you think
that all this
it sounds pretty lame because
All the right people
get what they deserve

Jive

Look who's coming
up and running
Rookie of the Year
He'll get us all out of here
Let it jive
My head feels like a wheel
Ready, steady and let it go
My arm's like a magazine
Dirty talking
everything's a no
Mother of seven
cousin of eleven
just to make it clear
He'll get us all out of here

Giant Hoof

It's getting better
Reach into the wild
And with nothing to hide
but the stuff that's behind
the container
It's better
Yeah it really is
And I think I've gotten a hold
on to something amazingly good
and reached the goal
Hold on!
I'm skinny
I'm fat
I'm short and tall
Something in between
and all of that
All day
It gets strange
And after the last of the sounds
that fades from the grave of the dead
Hold on!
Stay strong!
Did you know baby that in a moment or two
We'll figure out a good excuse from this place
I like to smoke
I smoke a lot
I don't smoke
I really don't
