Nine

Don’t shake your eyes at me
Oh just get me far from here
I have grown from my misfortunes
I’ve been made a little more clear
So don’t drag me down
Getting up’s no easy thing
Don’t let me hit the ground
And these nights are never ending
But they’re never filled with fear
Nothing's ever as I remember
No nothing's ever as it appears
So far from now
Don’t you slip away
Or make a sound

Mirrors

I’ll drink your spit
Every drop of it
You know I just won’t quit
I get a kick out of it
In all of these nights
I’ll tear you up
Until I get it right
Just look in the mirror
See who’s staring at you
Find the truth for a second
Then it runs loose
So run rabid run
Go and find a clue
What lies under grey eyes
I wanna know so soon

Strange Ways

Strange
You looked at me that way
I haven't been the same
You looked at me that way
And now these thoughts remain
Strange
And the days go by
And I cant think for myself
Or for anyone else
Oh dear what have I done
Have I fallen for something new
Or for someone
What have I done?
With thorny eyes that hypnotize
Her scent consumes me now
As I stand still paralyzed
Face down and terrified
Is it but a flash on a screen
I hear your soft voice call
And it sings only to me
With a voice so sweet
And now to my surprise
The door opens up
And its time to step inside
With no place to hide
You know
Its all so
Strange
You looked at me that way
I haven't been the same
You looked at me that way
And now these thoughts remain
Strange
And the days go by
And I cant think for myself
Or for anyone else
Strange
And the days go by
And I cant think for myself
Or for anyone else

Eye Patch
02:58
|

Your cigarette still burns
As your body turns
Towards another man
You kiss him cause you can
I turn around to leave
But you just stop and stare at me
With your one good eye
You never let um say goodbye
But you’re approaching
Fish net and thighs
Leather stolen
The look in your eye
Laser vision
No tears to deny
She cries for no one
She cries for no one
With your tiresome tricks
Give me something to lick
Like whips and spandex
Two freaks in silk blankets
Won’t you come confess this?
Only if you catch this
Look at the mess you made
What’s another night of pain?
But you’re approaching
Fish net and thighs
Leather stolen
The look in your eye
Laser vision
No tears to deny
She cries for no one
She cries for no one

Breathe with Me
03:45
|

Oh you’re chiefin
It’s smoke it’s not air
That you’re breathing
But you don’t care that I know
Where you been
And I know
That you sin
You see me
For all of my lies
You believe me
And my disguise
But I know
where you been
And you know
That I sin
A room with red lights how they shine on
Heavens headlights, velvet, satin
Sons with static, free with friction
Girls are golden and on a high note
You are the one, you are though
A room with red lights how they shine on
Heavens headlights, velvet, satin
Sons with static, free with friction
Girls are golden and on a high note
Breathe baby breathe oh won’t you breathe with me?

Fever Dreams
04:21

I tried to play nice
But it didn't feel right to me
With eyes like ice
How they pierce right through me
The same old vice
Has got it's hold on me again
oh no
So blind and shook
But you just wander over
For another look
At these photos
That I once took
As we danced slowly as the song goes
No, no, no
You speak so softly but I hear every word you say
Cigarettes and coffee wont keep these loaded dreams away
No sleep wont stop me I'll just keep passing through the day
No, I feel so blue without you, don't think I'll ever stay
How heaven hurts
I shake awake in sweat and wonder
What its worth
Never the same again no
She's not of Earth
She’s made of dreams it seems to me
Oh no
Could it be worse?
You're a ghost at most and crumble
In the dirt
I'll be your waste of space and
We'll make it work
And on and on again it goes
As eyes are closed
You speak so softly but I hear every word you say
Cigarettes and coffee wont keep these loaded dreams away
No sleep wont stop me I'll just keep passing through the day
No, I feel so blue without you, don't think I'll ever stay
Go
Go and work those bones and be bold
Don't wait it out until you're too old
Just find someone real to hold
And that pillow, it ain't no hero for you
Get out and Just do something new
Something gold, something true
It's day again it's time to

Where the Nights Will Go
03:40
|
|||
You're standing there with your eyes aglow
Wondering where your nights will go
Sporting only your stolen clothes
Well where you came from no one knows
And as you travel down your vacant street
Just by chance two strangers meet
Amidst the concrete and the steel machines
They’ll do whatever it takes to stay whole and stay clean
Fall so fast you didn’t know where you went
Nights will go and time will be spent
Corners call though legs do resent
Dancing dull with malcontent
Phones will glow but still they die though
Words unheard and so you drink slow
The car’s outside, you ready to go
For tomorrow’s filled with more potential
I should’ve known
I should’ve known
I should’ve known
I should’ve known

Mostly

Do what you will to stay with me
Lost here forever sweet
Wish you would slowly cease
The rope’s too tight release
I can’t even fall asleep
Because you haunt all my dreams
Come here and lay with me
But is it worth the price to beat
oh no
Sweet smell of tangerines
Bring forth the swift defeat
I wait here endlessly
To bring back this stranger once called peace
And its hard to find
A little peace of mind
Yeah I came to find
A little peace of mind
So come on, and bug me
If it’ll really make you happy
Oh its hard to find
A little peace of mind
Yeah I came to find
A little piece of my mind
Oh its hard to find
A little peace of mind
Yeah I came to find
Just what I left behind
Slowly but surely
You come closer to me
Pleading softly now
Wont you feel me?
Oh its hard to find
A little peace of mind
Yeah I came to find
A little peace of mind
So come on, and bug me
If it’ll really make you happy

Blondie, blondie, blondie
I’m haunted of you
No one, no one, no one
Can do to me what you do
So baby please
Be good to me
You’re all I’ll ever need
And you’re all I wanna be
So take me, take me, take me
Why won’t you take me?
Your eyes align with mine
So calm and casually
So naturally please
Be good to me
You’re all I’ll ever need
And you’re all I wanna be
So calm and casually
So naturally my love
You’re all I’ll ever need
And you’re all I wanna be
This time baby I’m sure
I’ll be all you need and more
This time baby I’m sure
I’ll be all you need and more
Baby
Are you listening?
Oh baby
Can you hear me?
This time baby I’m sure
I’ll be all you need and more
I swear you’re all I’ll ever want
Even if you weren’t blonde
