  coast to coast

(pushy preachy)
last stop for a resolution
end of the line, is it confusion?
so go. go see whats there for you
nothing new, nothing new for you to use
i've got no new act to amuse you
i've got no desire to use you, you know
but anything that i could do, would never be good enough for you
if you can't help it then just leave it alone (leave it alone)
leave it alone, yeah, just forget it
it's really easy
i believe i'll forget it too
still you're keepin' me around
til i finally drag us both down
pulling feathers out your hat
yes i believe that's where it's at
you belong tagging along
and i belong in your zoo
so i wait for confirmation
that you're never gonna use your starting gun
unless its me it sounds like being him just wasn't that much fun
anything that i could do
would never be good enough for you
if you can't help it then just leave it alone (leave it alone)
leave me alone, yeah, just forget it
it's really easy
i'll just forget it too
coast to coast, coast to coast
i'll do what i can so you can be what you do
coast to coast, coast to coast
i'll do everything i can so you can be what you do
coast to coast, coast to coast
circuit rider comes every fifth sunday
oh my lord, i fell asleep one day
anything that i could do
is there anything that i could do
that someone doesn't do for you
that someone didn't do for you
that i have already done for you

thanks to ian and charlie

let's get lost

i've been outside
invited in
but i couldn't abide
wouldn't miss it again
burning every bridge that i cross
to find some beautiful place to get lost
i had true love
i made it die
i pushed her away
she said please stay
burning every bridge that i cross
to find some beautiful place to get lost
to find some beautiful place to get lost
well i don't know where i'll go now
and i don't really care who follows me there
but i'll burn every bridge that i cross
and find some beautiful place to get lost
and find some beautiful place to get lost

thanks to mell and charlie

pretty (ugly before)

sunshine, been keeping me up for days
there is no night time, it's only a passing phase
and i feel pretty, pretty enough for you
i felt so ugly before, i didn't know what to do

sometimes is all i feel up to now
but it's not worth it to you
cos you gotta get high somehow
is it destruction that you require to feel?
like somebody wants you, someone that's more for real

sunshine, been keeping me up for days
there is no night time, only a passing phase
and i'll feel pretty, another hour or two

i felt so ugly before, i didn't know what to do
i felt so ugly before, i didn't know what to do
i felt so ugly before, i didn't know what to do
ugly before

thanks to christopher and charlie

don't go down

i met a girl
snowball in hell
she was hard
and as cracked as the liberty bell
i got her to
come on and move in with me
and i said i'd find a better place
we could spend eternity
don't go down
don't go down
stay with me, baby stay
her mama called me a thief
and her dad called himself
commander in chief
i fought him off with my love
but i knew the sense of worthlessness she would have to raise above
don't go down
don't go down
stay with me, baby stay
don't go down
don't go down
stay with me, baby stay
she had a dream
woke up in shock
she had seen
her own body outlined in chalk
i split the scene the globe been spun
and her ghost leaned down to kiss me
with a message from the sun
don't go down
don't go down
stay with me, baby stay
don't go down
stay with me, baby stay
don't go down
stay with me, baby stay

thanks to mell, nick and charlie

strung out again

you get what you see
i saw a rich fuck given charity
saw an evil emperor wearing my clothes
their far from the best
but they might suit you better than the rest
just looking in the mirror
will make you a brave man
i know my place
i hate my face
i know how i begin, and how i'll end
strung out again
was a parliament of owls
flying over a city of canals
floating on the body
floating in the dalles
you get what you see
some things they just change invisiabally
i don't know where i'm going
i don't even want to know
i know my place
i hate my face
i know how i begin and how i'll end
strung out again
standing, smiling on some fantasy island
waving at my lost reflection again
but a tide coming in
and i'm strung out again
strung out again

-------------------
fond farewell

the litebrite's now black and white
cause you took apart a picture that wasn't right
pitch burning on a shining sheet
the only maker that you want to meet
a dying man in a living room
who's shadow paces the floor
who'll take you out in the open door
this is not my life
it's just a fond farewell to a friend
it's not what i'm like
it's just a fond farewell to a friend
who couldn't get things right
fond farewell to a friend
he said really i just wanna dance
good and evil matched perfect it's a great romance
i can deal with some psychic pain
if it'll slow down my higher brain
veins full of disappearing ink
vomiting in the kitchen sink
disconnecting from the missing link
this is not my life
it's just a fond farewell to a friend
it's not what i'm like
it's just a fond farewell to a friend
who couldn't get things right
fond farewell to a friend
i see you're leaving me and taking up with the enemy
the cold comfort of the in between
a little less than a human being
a little less than a happy high
a little less than a suicide
the only things that you really tried
this is not my life
it's just a fond farewell to a friend
it's not what i'm like
it's just a fond farewell to a friend
who couldn't get things right
fond farewell to a friend
this is not my life
it's just a fond farewell to a friend

king's crossing

the king's crossing is the main attraction
dominoes are falling in a chain reaction
the scraping subject ruled by fear told me
whiskey works better than beer
the judge is on vinyl, decisions are final
and nobody gets a reprieve
and every wave is tidal - if you hang around
you're going to get wet
i can't prepare for death any more than i already have
all you can do now is watch the shells
the game looks easy that's why it sells
frustrated fireworks inside your head
are going to stand and deliver talk instead
the method acting that pays my bills
keeps a fat man feeding in beverly hills
i got a heavy metal mouth that hurls obscenity
and i get my check from the trash treasury
because i took my own insides out
it don't matter cos i have no sex life
all i want to do now is inject my ex wife
i've seen the movie and i know what happens
it's christmas time
and the needles on the tree
a skinny santa is bringing something to me
his voice is overwhelming, but his speech is slurred
and i only understand every other word
open your parachute and grab your gun
falling down like an omen, a setting sun
read the part and return at five
it's a hell of a role if you can keep it alive
but i don't care if i fuck up
i'm going on a date with a rich white lady
ain't life great?
give me one good reason not to do it
(because i love you)
so do it
this is the place where time reverses
dead men talk to all the pretty nurses
instruments shine on a silver tray
don't let me get carried away
don't let me get carried away
don't let me be carried away

twilight

haven't laughed this hard in a long time
i better stop now before i start crying
go off to sleep in the sunshine
i don't want to see the day when it's dying

she's a sight to see, she's good to me
i'm already somebody's baby
she's a pretty thing and she knows everything
but i'm already somebody's baby

you don't deserve to be lonely
but those drugs you got won't make you feel better
pretty soon you'll find it's the only
little part of your life you're keeping together

i'm nice to you, i could make it through
that you're already somebody's baby
i could make you smile if you stayed a while
but how long will you stay with me baby

because your candle burns too bright
well, i almost forgot it was twilight
even if i think that you are right
well, i'm tired of being down, i got no fight

you're wonderful, when it's beautiful
but i'm already somebody's baby
and if i went with you i'd disappoint you too
well, i'm already somebody's baby
already somebody's baby

a passing feeling

everything is gone but the echo of the burst of a shell
and i'm stuck here waiting for a passing feeling
in the city i built up and blew to hell
i'm stuck here waiting for a passing feeling
still i sinned all the time
my request for relief
down the dead power lines
though i'm beyond belief
in the help i require
just to exist at all
took a long time to stand
took an hour to fall.
i'm stuck here waiting for a passing feeling
stuck here waiting for a passing feeling
still i sinned all the time
my request for relief
down the dead power lines
though i'm beyond belief
in the help i require
just to exist at all
took a long time to stand
took an hour to fall


------------------------


last hour

here's the army
that you mowed to the ground
and the bodies you left lying around
talking it out
the last hour
i'm through trying now
it's a big relief
i'll be staying down
where no-one else gonna give me grief
mess me around
just make it over

your opinion was the law of the land
a single thing that i couldn't always understand
i lived it out from hour to hour
the only thing that never really changed
you ran me all around
and dragged me down
at the end of the day
don't keep me around
just make it over

i've been thinking of the things that i missed
situations that i passed up for this
one way love i took for ours
i'm through trying now
it's a big relief
i'll be staying down
i wasn't good at being a theif
more like a clown
make it over

------------------------



shooting star

you'll make the scene like you always do
going up stream down the ave. to fuck some
trophy boy that you'll win tonight at the bar
so bad, so far. you'll make him sad, shooting star.
when it was me
i was momentarily proud
drunk on dreams now i'm glad
i didn't say out loud
you said you'd be for real but
i don't believe that you are
so bad, so far. you make me sad, shooting star
you're distant and cold and a sight to behold
everybody just sighs. but no one gets on
with you very long, cos you don't feel bad when you lie
i'm going to sleep now
going back to find square one
square two be where i can deal with the shit you've just done
it won't be soon
say the least it's gonna be hard
so bad, so far. your love is sad, shooting star
your love is sad, shooting star

memory lane

this is the place
you'll end up when
you lose the chase
where you’re dragged against your will
from a basement on the hill
and all anybody knows is
you're not like them
and they kick you in the head
and send you back to bed
isolation pulled you pass a tunnel to a
bright world where you can make a place to stay
but everybody's scared of this place
they're staying away
your little house on memory lane
the mayor's name is fear
his force patrols the pier
from a mountain of cliche
that advances everyday
the doctor spoke a cloud
he rained out loud
you’ll keep your doors and windows shut
and swear you'll
never show a soul again
but isolation pushes you ‘til every muscle aches
down the only road it ever takes
but everybody's scared of this place
they're staying away
your little house on memory lane
if it's your decision
to be open about yourself
be careful or else
be careful or else
uncomfortable apart
it's all written on my chart
and i take what's given to me
most cooperatively
i do what people say
and lie in bed all day
absolutely horrified
i hope you're satisfied
isolation pushes past self hatred, guilt and shame
to a place where suffering is just a game
but everybodys scared of this place
they're staying away
your little house on memory lane
your little house on memory lane



-----------------------



little one

one more little one
i'll go down stay down
sleep the rest of the day
dream new music to calm down
stay down and keep evil away
i can hear you asleep
changing your shape
dissolved in some dream
as a new one appears
to take you along where you've never been
one, two, three, four, five, six, ?
the moonlight tonight seems to belong to me
cause i even though some can't sleep
i need some company

one hit wouldn't hurt a bit at all
slow down sleep
what's ?
if it's good shit you won't know
and i won't know the fact that i'm dying
if i seem to be reckless with myself
it's the fault of no one
all things have a place
under the moon as well as the sun
one more
little one i love you


----------------------------

a distorted reality is now a neccessity to be free

i'm floating in a black balloon
o.d. on easter afternoon
my mama told me baby stay clean
there's no in between
and all you ladies and you gentlemen
between is all you've ever seen or been
fit poorly and arrange the sight
doll it up in virgin white

you disappoint me
you people rakin' in on the world
the devil's script sells
you the heart of a blackbird

shine on me baby cause it's rainin' in my heart

sun is rising on a chopping glare
rain dropping acid blotter in the air
a distorted reality's now a neccessity to be free

so disappointing
so first i put it all down to luck
god knows why my country don't give a fuck

fuck

shine on me baby cause it's rainin' in my heart
shine on me baby cause it's rainin' in my heart
