Teenage Ballad
Searching for something that'll never be there, but it'll be there one day soon. Go ahead and laugh, go and laugh, your eyes are crying. I've got new eyes. So I'm wrong, I'm wrong, you got so many years to get strong and when you do you're all alone, tell yourself today it's alright now. If that's the way you want to be, take a holiday. Still beating of the heart, oh there's another low. I want to get up now. What you get you're never going to have. I want it all so one day. Alright now, if that's the way you want to be, take a holiday. Goodbye heart. Technology is building me a new one. Everybody's going to shoot right through me. Bite. Starlight, no wish to see you tonight. Is one the sky on the ground? Just fell down, try to pick it up. Alright now I want to fly away. It's alright, don't pull your eyes out waiting for your dreams to appear. Bite. I fall down to hear hesitation and we turn and it's all a lie. I will reign in the end.

Medical
Judging by your character, I see your heart has been scarred. Scars that never heal. I can see them in your hands inside. And it's all a world away and I don't feel right. And it's all the time of day but your clock is broken. Backside, frontside on your porch. Wouldn't it be great to be able to tell how you're feeling now? It's all right, butt out and you will but you won't and you're tired of sleeping alone. And we all can't afford. Now I know it's night, you're tired of being in the way. You get out of bed every morning, just go. And it gets you down, over on your head this time, loss for words and I know it's just yourself in bed and I wait.

Wish It Away
Things are different now. Oh no, they're different now. So much change. Can't be what you want me to be. Can't see how you want me to see. I just can't handle it. What you want ain't inside of me. Wishing this world away. It's just part of that phase. Tune to get it started. Start a new day. Calling out for more in this world. Won't give anything. Calling out for more and you don't show any feeling. And I'm not giving up on you. Everything's different. It's all gone now. When you're lost and when you're lonely, you will find. You just keep searching for that piece of mind. Not me. Get out those history books. I want to take a look. Take a look at my life. I've got a lot to learn about my life. And the path will burn, will burn until all those ashes have all blown away. I know you can change. Swear on your mother's grave. It's all the same. Kind of hopeless. Wish it all away, wish me here again.

Confessions Of A Heterosexual
This is the end, god drop the bomb. This is the end of all reason. You can't go into my castle, burn down all the stones. Love is a rule and hate is the answer. Maybe we can burn our river down with what I say, with gasoline. Candle burns only so far, so far as it was old before. This is the end, god drop the bomb. This is the end of all reason. Floating faster, sinking slower. It's all the same. Love is a rule, hate is the answer maybe we can burn this river down with gasoline and a goddamn big blow torch. The story only goes so far, so far as it was old before. Golden rule. I could save us all. You could save us all. Whose side am I on? Over and over, this is gone(?), so far as it was before. This is the end, god drop the bomb. This is the end, god drop the bomb. This is the end of all reason. I could save us all. Whose side am I on? This is the end, god drop the bomb. This is the end of all reason.

Insecurity Blanket
I built this hole from what I gather. I dug the structure and put it underground. Try to cover with dirt on top to stop the bleeding. And deep inside is where I hide. Deep inside is where I find. And you can come and you can rescue me. Remember toys, remember imagination, remember half of what I know. Confusion knows me. I ain't no stranger. Try to get inside to stop my bleeding. And deep inside is where I hide. Deep inside is where I find. And you can come and you can rescue me. For all know you're just a crooked smile hiding behind those perfect teeth. We could sit around, sit around and watch the world go by. Sitting in my bedroom, my hole, watching the world, watch all go by. Sit around, sit around and watch it all go by. Sit around in a perfect world, I'd be happy. I'd be a different shape, in a different form. For what? Why do I do these things to myself? Look out for the walls, they're all coming down around us. And the shelves, your trophy hit you in the head. It's all. My structure is coming down, it's all coming down. And deep inside is where I hide. Deep inside is where I find. And you can come and you can rescue me.

Headwound
I know you're a little tongue-tied now. It'd be so easy if your mouth would just slow down. And I can't keep up with you. But if I could I'd still be losing, lose. I won't conform, I won't do what you want me to do. I won't get caught up in your everyday. I won't do this, won't listen anymore. Why don't you tie me up with the strings that you play with? Call me what you want again. I won't lose my head. Call me everything you can. I swear I'm staying here. It's time to round up all that sight. This sight looks different in that different light. There's so much I can't afford. Turn off the lights, unplug that cord. I won't conform, I won't do what you want me to do. I won't get caught up in your everyday. I won't do this, won't listen anymore. Why don't you tie me up with the strings that you play with? Call me what you want again. I won't lose my head. Call me everything you can. Ride along your head wound, then slow dance with me. I'll tell you how it is. The time that you need and the time that you want and the time that you spent, throwing it out. Times are coming back again. It's coming back. Time's going away. Away.

Big Kiss
So this is life. I've been around and get down and watch yourself get turned down. So this is work, so this is it. 40 more years, maybe I'll just start a new one. I wanna blow you away, I'll tell you yes sir. I wanna a kiss before I blow. I wanna blow you away, I want attention. Take the good with the bad, take it. All you're worth and never wait. So this is what you take. I'll never have much else to give. So this is life. So this is good. I want to blow you away.

Guillotine Lullaby (The Art Of Revenge)
We've dealt with something colder. Goodbye Mr. Salesman. How does it work? And the tick tock on the hour, I know you're not too loud and we're all alone. Looks like we made a mess again. Looks like it's not too clean. Because my hands are on my hand on your neck. Looks like we're hiding. mAnd they want to offer me something I'd never understand. And they want something that's colder. I can't give that. All I want, decision don't matter or not to get you, yeah. And we fought so long. And something something don't matter to you. It's taking a toll right over your faith, it's taking something and we all understand. I know the walk, the way you walk. You're tied or something. Justice will be served. I want to feel real, I want to be real, realer than ahhhhh. Justice will be off with his head. Your time, your time. It doesn't get to you. Goodbye Mr. Salesman. This lullaby has to end. Did I say I was something that wasn't real, realer than you? I want to be real, realer than you. I don't know, but justice will be off with his head. Choke. You'll choke on your words, choke on my tongue.

Thinking Of Oblivion
Just thinking about how it is, about the way it is, about how it goes. Yeah. Remember oblivion, just think oblivion. This is the time I know. Oblivion, shut up. I can't even believe you. Jump jump jump. Just thinking.

Coffeehouse Revolutionary Land
Hold it. I need a chemical not too sweet not too tart. I need a six lift. And we float just to keep your hands on the table. Hold you cigarette like a weapon. You're ready to burn. Keep it out of my sight. Not the worst not the best that you had. Chemical grounds, that's what we'll talk about. No more hesitation, no more tonight tonight tonight. Your hands are allowed to walk on. We hold your cigarette like a weapon. Turn around, I'm talking to you. Are you ready to cross that line? Get out of mine. Are you ready? You want time to kill? I don't want them all to think I know. Did I mention everything I know?

Industrial Strength Bullshit
Here are the words that you can't express. Coming older, now I'm not a mess. And it feels so right to earn your life on the line. Lights, camera, bullshit. Get them out of here. Something. Kicking my face in my dirt. Words not alert, but it's like a volcano dripping down there. Hot, scolding, it's gone. My own new will die. Yes sir. Something better get it right. Something. Just when you thought. And these things go beyond words. I know it's plain to see. Does it make it's way through you the way it does to me? Get a little way to go. Feel your hands around. Feel your temperature rise and fall. Hello Mr. Stereotypical, let me shake your hand and kiss your ass goodbye. This white class tied to a cigarette. Die. Yes sir. Something. Just when you thought. And these things go beyond words. I know it's plain to see. Does it make it's way through you the way it does to me? Get a little way to go. Feel your temperature rise. All I want to know is to fall. Bullshit always wins.

Las Vegas
Champagne in my hand. I nearly go insane. Goddamn, I feel this way. Try again, again. This clicking in my throat is making me go awake. And you want to but no one will take you there. And you need it. Don't let it go. Pushing back again. Goddamn, it's in and it feels in. Clicking again, again. The lights beaming in my head. And the lights shine so beautiful. There's a certain evil to everything that's so pretty. Sometimes I feel like I'm going to explode. It always seems so easy. Don't let it seem so easy. Misunderstanding all the time. I just need to fix my only frame of mind. Just being here is the eternal frown. It really hurts when my chips are down. Chips are down and I'm losing. My chips are down and I'm losing. Yeah. And you want to but no one will take you there. And you need it. Sometimes I feel like I'm going to explode.

Carpet Busting
See the images on the carpet. I think I see myself I know I see myself. With all the creatures, I fit in pretty well. Trying to find you but's it's hard to tell. Corner of my eye but I found something else. Just listening to your voice, trying to yell. Be there for yourself, I know you will. Yeah, my lame-ass self. I know you will. Quit depending on your health to keep you alive. Just depend upon the floor because I'm there. Time waits for no one. I've learned so well. I wait for you. Every time I think I'm right, I think I know I'm right. Think again, my friend. Looking everywhere, everywhere but down. Just keep your eyes to your feet and your feet to the ground. And be aware of your roots and where you come from. Be quiet, keep it to yourself and don't be proud. Be there for yourself, I know you will. Yeah, my lame-ass self. I know you will. Quit depending on your health to keep you alive. Just depend upon the floor because I'm there. Time waits for no one. I've learned so well. I wait for you. Every time I think I'm right, I think I know I'm right. See the images on the carpet. I thought I saw myself, I know I saw myself. This is the place of the only friend I know, tidy and vacuumed. When did it go? I think I know I'm right. No one waits for me.
