FOR MARTHA
(Strumentale)

 

CHEWING GUM

chewing gum
wonderin' where i've hid and what i've done
wonderin' where i'll go and where i'll run
hide myself away from everyone
chewing gum
doesn't bother you that you're not the one
keeps you up at night in a fever dream
to count the simple pieces of your mystique
it's yours to keep

chewing gum
innocence lost in electric smiles
perfectly cast in desperate clothes
lovingly hung from city lights
with all their might

and all i need is you by my side
by my side
by my side

chewing gum
wonderin' i've hid and what i've done
wonderin' where i'll go and where i'll run
hide myself away from everyone

chewing gum
got myself a piece of
chewing gum
got myself a piece of
chewing gum
got myself a piece of
chewing gum
got myself a piece of chewing gum

 

THE TALE OF DUSTY AND THE PISTOL PETE

dusty screams
through doors and imaginary floors
"why can't you miss me?"

pistol pete
removes the final breaths from her unkind
and she is shaken

what does this mean
in love or in peace?
with you lying next to me
so faithless serene

and she calls to him

let the waste
cross the ancient trails to you
far out
beneath the sorrow clouds

let them taste
the bitter lost mistake of you
let them cry out
through your rusted scars

alone he roams
inside the ordinary catacombs
of her waiting

with raven hands
she steals and staggers towards her man
still scorned by his demon

because he's undone
become the language of
disaster and love
vengeance and dust

and she calls to him

let the waste
cross the ancient trails to you
far out
beneath the sorrow clouds

let them taste
the bitter lost mistake of you
let them cry out
through your rusted scars

dusty screams
through doors and imaginary scenes
of hurt and teardrop

as he holds her down
in the cold lonely winds
together again
her inside him

and she calls to him

let the waste
cross the ancient trails to you
far out
beneath the sorrow clouds

let them taste
the bitter lost mistake of you
let them cry out
through your rusted scars

 

ANNIE DOG

amphetamine annie-dog
has her leash and a face
her velvet spleen, her shackle spine
her diamond curse, it comes with mine

a vessel she for violent I
confession arms awake
mine mine, your were always mine
possessed by my taste

and below the angel dog
combs her hair and sings her psalms
the bombs go off, she doesn't notice
it all goes wrong, she sets things tragic
she is venus, she is mars
she's electric, and the struggle of

upon her face we leave no trace
but in her stomach mercury aged
she holds the blood, she carves the knives
she digs the wires in our babies

amphetamine annie-dog
pulls her trash and her stories
from place to place and bed to bed
gives of herself and the magnet head
another floor, another ceiling
counting stars with double meanings

is it wrong to be swallowed whole
to disappear in her
to give to her the priceless peace
of giving up control

we tumble out into the streets
and annie-dog, she drags her leash
pretty face, ugly mouth
bitter bred and so released

and by the no and in the yes
annie goes if you couldn't guess
a simple man, a sycophant
her elephant with the laughing cough
she wants clean sheets and fresh flowers
her dental shots and the hong kong glue

amphetamine annie-dog
has her leash and a face

 

 

ONCE IN A WHILE

horses run once in a while for you
the shades will drop once in a while for you
destiny will have a sense of your touch
once in a while
once in a while for you
once in a while for you
once in a while for you

the soldiers will fall once in a while for you
the shades will crawl once in a while for you
you'll take the walls
i will take the pain awayonce in a while
once in a while it's you
once in a while it's you
once in a while
you'll make it on your own
you'll make it so alone
feel so alone

you'll try to care once in a while for me
i will be there once in a while
once in a while for you
once in a while for you
once in a while for you

 

 

DO YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES

do you close your eyes when you kiss me
do you close your eyes if you miss me
and do you wonder why
i sent for you tonight
do you wonder why

golden bells are ringing in the year
through all the tears you cried for me
i always knew you could
so hide inside your looking-glass surprise
the lies become the truth you hide
the lies become the lusty night

do you close your eyes when you kiss me
do you close your eyes if you miss me
and do you wonder why
i sent for you tonight
do you wonder why

do you dream your dreams when you're with me
and do you see the things that i see
and is it true enough
is it true of love

secrets cloud your ears and fill your nights
with compromise and shadows torn
you make your way to him
the moon becomes your silent confidant
the one you want will stand alone
the one you love is never known

do you close your eyes when you kiss me
do you close your eyes if you miss me
and do you wonder why
i sent for you tonight
do you wonder why

 

 

MY MISTAKE

we're so young
and we're so dumb
we don't register calculations
and if you dare
and should i care
i could destroy you
and take you there

as the spitfires begin their descent
and tragic romantic ascent
my love is one hundred percent

come back to me, my mistake
come back to me, my mistake
come back to me, my mistake
mistake, it was all my mistake

so suck me through
your saliva screws
and i can't help myself if i don't know
the flaws in you
that were equal to
the mysteries of almost knew

and i've said this so many, many times
can't help you out of your mind
so please don't judge me a time

come back to me, my mistake
come back to me, my mistake
come back to me, my mistake

and if you pretend
please try to offend everyone

we share the same monkey disease
so give me my grape of peace
and do what you want as you please

come back to me, my mistake
come back to me, my mistake
come back to me, my mistake

 

 

BLISSED AND GONE

the sun has blessed
the rays are gone
and all the kids have left their tears and gone home

sweet 17, sour 29
and i can't explain myself
what i'd hoped to find
you were all so kind
when i was near

and if you're still feeling down
then maybe you need me around
to love and hold you
don't say i hadn't told you so
maybe you need me around

i had no luck
i had no shame
i had no cause, just 17 days of rain
and you in my eyes

just one more song to slay this earth
and i can't explain myself
just what it's worth
it was all i had, but not all i need
and i can't escape the fact that i still bleed

and if you're still feeling down
and if this seems way too loud
then maybe you need me around

i had no voice
i had no drive
i had no choice
i've done my time
i had myself
had my band
i had my love
had no hand in watching it all fall apart

and if you're still feeling down
then maybe you need me around
to lift and scold you
to send you crashing alright now
maybe you need me around

 

 

THE END IS THE BEGINNING IS THE END

the sewers belch me up
the heavens spit me out
from ethers tragic i am born again
and now i'm with you now
inside your world of wow
to move in desires made of deadly pretends
'til the end times begin

is it bright where you are
have the people changed
does it make you happy you're so strange
and in your darkest hour, i hold secrets flame
you can watch the world devoured in it's pain
strange

climb my ribcage to
the replays run for you
unhook my lights to peek behind the flash
for i am crystal chrome
i am shatter dome
i am kremlin king of angels avenged
to destroy the end

is it bright where you are
have the people changed
does it make you happy you're so strange
and in your darkest hour, i hold secrets flame
you can watch the world devoured in it's pain

the zeppelins rain upon us
the guns of love disastrous
a shadow lies amongst you
to defy the future cast

is it bright where you are
have the people changed
does it make you happy you're so strange
and in your darkest hour, i hold secrets flame
you can watch the world devoured in it's pain
strange
strange

 

 

THE BEGINNING IS THE END IS THE BEGINNING

send a heartbeat to the void that cries through you
relive the pictures that have come to pass
for now we stand alone
the world is lost and blown
and we are flesh and blood disintigrate
with no more to hate

is it bright where you are?
and have the people changed?
does it make you happy you're so strange?
and in your darkest hour, i hold secrets flame
we can watch the world devoured in its pain

delivered from the blast
the last of a line of lasts
the pale princess of a palace cracked
and now the kingdom comes
crashing down undone
and i am a master of a nothing place
of recoil and grace

is it bright where you are?
and have the people changed?
does it make you happy you're so strange?
and in your darkest hour, i hold secrets flame
we can watch the world devoured in its pain

time has stopped before us
the sky cannot ignore us
no one can separate us
for we are all that is left
the echo bounces off me
the shadow lost beside me
there's no more need to pretend
cause now i can begin again

is it bright where you are?
and have the people changed?
does it make you happy you're so strange?
and in your darkest hour, i hold secrets flame
we can watch the world devoured in its pain
strange
