Black Cloud Sugar

My head is spinning round the carousel moon
Is that me or the stars humming out of tune
You're walking evil baby you're walking tall
Your beauty is a burden a burden to us all
You're nothing but a black cloud sugar
That follows me all around town
I really should be over you
Beating that dead horse till its black & blue
Those white cloud girls scare me just as much
Their cookie cutter plans I'm frozen by their touch
With a twist a fate I pass you in the street
You give me a kind of look only a mother could read
You're nothing but a black cloud sugar
That follows me all around town
I really should be over you
Beating that dead horse till its black & blue
And the sun used to shine
When I had you by my side
Does he make you happy
You're nothing but a black cloud sugar
That follows me all around town
I really should be over you
Beating that dead horse till its black & blue

Precipice Drive

well you intoxicate with enchanting charms
you're a black magnet baby on the ides of March
oh yeah oh yeah
your ruby lips brought me out of my tomb
electric waves keep on flying off you
oh yeah oh yeah
find the key & leave it all behind
there's still one place you can hide
precipice drive & the pink evening sky
dark hair flowing in the black of night
like a sphinx in the flesh with body of sky
oh yeah oh yeah
spastic blue & ocean slope
into the sweet light of stars with your periscope
oh yeah oh yeah
find the key & leave it all behind
there's still one place you can hide
precipice drive & the pink evening sky

Detox

detox I want her out of my body
like battery acid running through my veins she burns my heart
3 years ago today I broke your heart & mine just the same
where you're at I sort of know
what you're doing I'd rather not be shown
at this point its pointless
but its something I have to do
detox I want her out of my body
like battery acid running through my veins she burns my heart
Iike a flash flood of flashbacks
it knocks me nearly right off my tracks
need to take a long ride on a train
let the scrolling leaves take my pain
your up against your midnight
your secret trips fill me with so much fright
detox I want her out of my body
like battery acid running through my veins she burns my heart
take away this pain
detox I want her out of my body
like battery acid running through my veins she burns my heart
detox I want her out of my body
like battery acid running through my veins she burns my heart

Elusiville

chain the road to your feet
trudging through the barren sea
happiness is as elusive
as the history becomes
like the smoke of a departing dream
midnight rain left the stars in the street
maybe it never comes down here
see you in elusiville
running down by the old tracks
see a friend fading back
he wonders where I have been
once in focus he rolled with the wind
like the smoke of a departing dream
midnight rain left the stars in the street
maybe it never comes down here
see you in elusiville
welcome to elusiville
where your dreams bend to your will
celestial eyes like a light house
mega man from a mouse
like the smoke of a departing dream
midnight rain left the stars in the street
maybe it never comes down here
see you in elusiville

you don't like to see the heat
you're waiting for the glow
do it right the first time
timidity is slow
hunt your personal power
through hardship and your grief
then you'll be among the greats
stealing all the scenes
loneliness is just inside your head
the world is bigger than your selfishness
there's a billion people to get healed
there are worlds upon worlds
its not at all as you see
you're the only thing thats real
within the mystery

Not For You
04:00
|
|||
|
driving down the back roads
with tears in your eyes
just like a broken record
it's the same every night
nothing but flesh & bone
singing from your gutter throne
if you never forgive yourself
you'll never survive
just let the game play out
its not for you to decide
riding on a light-shaft
upon a ghost ship
that juice will make you laugh
in the face of the apocalypse
nothing but flesh & bone
singing from your gutter throne
if you never forgive yourself
you'll never survive
just let the game play out
its not for you to decide

Curtain Song

things that keep you high you never define
his eyes so dangerous & Devine
together or alone I'm just the same
why would I need to know his name
now the curtain's drawn
look who did you wrong
try seeing through my worried mind
scars that you bear from last night
together or alone I'm just the same
why would I need to know his name
now the curtain's drawn
look who did you wrong
now the curtain's drawn
look who did you wrong
now the curtain's drawn
dream boy did you wrong

Dead Man's Shoes
04:20
|

|
She pulled my arm onto the floor
I twirled her once and then no more
She asked what's wrong with a look of concern
I said I've reached the point of no return
Walking in a dead man's shoes
My cold feet leave me nothing to lose
Lately I take the back seat
The wrong way down a one way street
Shrapnel stuck inside my soul
I'm happy but I'm still not at home
My thoughts are drowning out the room
You're laughter's like impending doom
Walking in a dead man's shoes
My cold feet leave me nothing to lose
Lately I take the back seat
The wrong way down a one way street

Only
04:10

the news is so bad they've got to censor the truth
have mercy on these desensitized youth
while liberty's asleep did you get your fill
why the ones with power always counter god's will
it's the only life we know
so why should we suppose
that strife will never let us go
& we'll never find our way home
people running so fast they never look around
pretend they can't see the sky is falling down
how crooked & dark can you make your dreams
are we righteous enough to handle being free?
it's the only life we know
so why should we suppose
that strife will never let us go
& we'll never find our way home
day after day we keep losing time
while doubt & fear push our dreams aside
we're small talk from the view above
fighting private wars until we learn to give love
it's the only life we know
so why should we suppose
that strife will never let us go
& we'll never find our way home

the shadow of the sun has left me here
a broken critic with an empty mirror
wrapped in weakness, in darkness and shame
I've run out of victims to kill with my blame
spinning sky of agony & joy
big river show the sky
secrets & lies have turned on me
he who is righteous is he who is free
a corresponding future that always lies
to the man who self deifies
the ship is busting at the seams
a midnight jolt of reality
the common crime you never see
you never have to worry about poor old me
spinning sky of agony & joy
big river open wide
secrets & lies have turned on me
he who is righteous is he who is free
a corresponding future that always lies
to the man who self deifies

River to the Sea
02:18
|
|||
|
well my payments overdue
with a scared heart I come to you
the riddle of the dead
left everyone scratching their heads
like a river to the sea
time will let you through to me
fragile is the word
for every stone left unturned
so the story goes
wherever the submission flows
like the river to the sea
time will let you through to me
