Woe

If I don't stand for something
The nothing will corrupt me
Each instance gets stale and lonely
So woe is me

Carousel

You're no good for me
But I'm falling
When your carnival comes 'round
At first the ecstasy
Envelopes me
You spin me up then you spit me out
The way you're treating me
Is defeating me
I give up when you make that sound
'Cause there's so much appeal
To your ferris wheel
Until it lays me on the ground
You say you're good for me
I'm not falling
Now the amusement's worn me out
The second ride ain't free
So get off me
Or put the bridle in your mouth
Are you having fun
With all your damage done
Time to find another mount
As you're set so explode
I'll crawl in my hole
Next time your circus tears through my town
In my own living hell
On your carousel
You leared to put me on my knees
On the telephone
You're not coming home
I'll drive myself alone in pieces
The day the glitter fell
From your carousel
You learned to beg enough to please
On the telephone
Don't want you coming home
I'll drive myself alone in peace

University

In the fall the change is on the way
You hit the road in brand new clothes
To learn something about everything
You promise me you'll call me everyday
From university
University
November comes it's getting cold
Your scent is gone from all my clothes
A new excuse for not calling me
Your minor in philosophy
A brand new friend he's really great
And you swear to me it's not a date
You're not immersed in me
From university
I hate when you're so logical
You say between the tears
This argument is impossible
Don't scream at me
All this jealousy
Will destroy our chemistry
I reach out
You freak out
I think we'll
Not end well

You drop the towers
and then retreat
Our shock and awe will wreck the wrong country
Now we've both put on a big display
The Arab spring blooms anyway
Blue sky outside
Airplanes inside
In flames goodbye
World trade
To my cousin
and your Marines
I want you safe far from the Middle East
While congress fights to see how long you stay
I think that you should see your son today
Throw some boots on the ground to confuse the outrage
Then to kill just one man we invade three countries
Call it terror or religion we all bleed the same way
Because all Muslims aren't Al Qaeda nor all Christians the KKK

I think you know I'm not to blame
There's still time to come clean
In your war with fat
You're on the losing team
The thing you think
Will make you thin
Goes in you mouth
Then comes out again
More vaseline for
The vomit queen
You're such a self-esteem whore
It won't let you see there's
No way this could be my fault
Does your disorder pretend
To give you what you want
That taste of life
You can't confront
Call in the diet police
No more food tonight
Your dress size won't decrease
Until you feel your throat get tight

Taxidermy Song
01:26
|
|||
Found you by the side of the road
Your body still warm but your heart was cold
Not looking too good all that red white and goo
Gonna put my hands deep inside of you
Maybe you think it's wrong
Gonna mess with the flesh now that life is gone
Blow it off and just sing along
To the homemade taxidermy song
I think you once were a fox
Now you're in my garage in a cardboard box
Should I take off your skin and poke out your eyes
Since you're already dead I feel justified

Room Six

a few more tests it seems
this one will leave a scar
a trip to radiology
room six deliver
in six the cancer breeds
try not to give up
in six I'm listening
room six deliver
the end will possibly
be enough to break your heart
time to learn what faith can't bring
room six deliver
in six it's hard to breathe
try not to give up
in six I'm listening
room six deliver

Though all the smoke you learn to breathe
In all the smoke I met you
Guess all you learn from nicotine
Is what the lawyers let you
The smell of flint and kerosene
The ecstasy reinvents you
So much for social pleasantries
My hidden drug's gonna get you
You rub me out so slowly
You smoke me out and snuff me
You wrung me out and let the
The honey out honey out of me
Gotta know that there's no rejecting me
I control how addiction gets you
Nothing left but a usless tendency
In the end nothing will protect you
The tar gets thick enough to see
Thanks to your lack of attention
You think you'll get away from me
By some divine intervention
My chromosomes are all alone
You know you know you know
You fill my comfort zone
I pray I get to get to know you
Who wants the flames to enter me
You know you know you know
So does the pusher set me free
Or am I what's left over
You know you know it's over

The Needle Down
04:11
|
|||
every time the dj spills
the music gets inside and loosens up your will
is this how addiction sounds?
the cursor puts the needle down
your dreams come true
the crowd has its way with you
the drugs let you cheat all the pain
until you scream my name
the drinks are gonna help you spin
but soon enough you'll need excuse for of all your sins
this is how addiction sounds
your dealer puts the needle down
and all the tweakers
can't kill the speakers
then like a cyclone
sex on your iPhone
where'z all me people
under the steeple
you'll let me in there
soon as your skin's bare
bass from the towers
no lack of power
a mess of sequins to
hide your retreat in
wine, drugs and flowers
the early hours
you'll just get fucked and put the needle down
|

just one bite
all you need
sugar coated
but sugar-free
the heart shaped box
brings chocolate tears
feel the cravings
reappear
right now
right here
take me home
or eat me here
lick your fingers
clean my dear
as pins and needles
hide your fear
all the anger
ends right here
right now
right here
but it's hard
harder than it seems
I'm melting without ever having learned your recipe
are you sweeter than me
guess that's left to see
so will it be
sugary
with whipping cream
or apathy
in chocolate covered misery
until
the decadence relents
we stay right here
be still
don't question all the questions
it won't change how it feels
|

Take me out
play with me
find my love
endlessly
Bright blue eyes
how'd you know
lift my head
from the floor
If you lack attention follow me
your new condition pleases me
get buried in the frequencies
I'm the one
in control
infatuation
still gets old
It's right there
in front of you
electric dreams
don't come true
Fill me up
flesh exposed
Here it comes and there it goes
tape and chains
some artistry
the momentary part of me
kodakcolor
pic and roll
the ecstacy will take it's toll
can't dispute
the quality
of love with no apostrophe
