"Two"

"Two"



If you take me back
Back to your place
I'll try not to bother you I promise
'Cause it's cold in here
And I wish it was hot
The sink's broke, it's leaking from the faucet
And i'm fractured from the fall
And i wanna go home
But it takes two when it used to take one
It takes two when it used to take only one
Well, my money's no good when i'm up to no good
No good ever comes from it, honest
I got a really good heart
I just can't catch a break
If i could i'd treat you like you wanted me to i promise
But i'm fractured from the fall
And i wanna go home
I'm fractured from the fall
And i wanna go home
But it takes two when it used to take one
It takes two when it used to take one
It takes two when it used to take one
It takes two when it used to take only one

"Two Hearts"

"Two Hearts"



Here we go again
God, i listen but i'm not listening
Everything she says
You know i've heard it all before
So what if i have
It doesn't mean it isn't beautiful
And everyone needs company...
Once in a while
Two hearts, one of them will break
Like bad ideas on a beautiful day
Two figures moving thru the dark
Three words, is all it takes to break your heart in two
Every time she goes
I just pretend like it's not happening
And every time she comes
When she comes, oh god
So what if she's right
So what if she's so beautiful
Beautiful as that
Good for a laugh and too kind
Two hearts, one of them will break
Like bad ideas on a beautiful day
With no hands
This thing will steer itself thru the dark
Three words, is all it takes to break our heart in two
It's all it takes to break your heart in two
Three words

"Typecast"

"Typecast"



you and I we were born to play these parts and we play them so well
so well and often sometimes you and I forget you know who we really are
it keeps me locked into the deal

Binary stars, companions in the sky always in orbit but never to collide
we're just not going supernova any time soon
we're just two stars out under the moon

Typecast, we play losers who keep falling in love with the wrong ones
Typecast, what a show, why won't they cancel us?
we got a million more seasons to go
oh no, oh yes, we've been typecast

every shadow I knew you underneath was just a studio trick, a spotlight on the stage
black bottles to simulate the depth
to manipulate the young and naive and hide your age

we're worse than liars we're paid to be fixed
ghost lights in our living rooms for in-between matinées
two lonely stars someplace beyond the moon where the light is coming from
but never receiving or getting any

We're typecast, we play losers who keep falling in love with the wrong ones
Typecast, what a show, why won't they cancel us?
oh come on, typecast, we play losers who keep falling in love with the wrong ones
Typecast, what a show, why won't they cancel us?
We've been typecast, yeah we've been typecast

"Ultraviolet Light"

"Ultraviolet Light"



This is the silence so nobody understand
Iced ocean leaves our ships just sliding in
Could forming, lighting shooting from it's hands
Sky's on fire, make a wish and use it quick my friend

Come on, come on, come on
Let's go it's getting darker
Come on, come on, come on, come on let's go...
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Before my wish expires
Something bad is on the horizon
Shining ultraviolet light

I see you hovering oblivious to air
The laws of nature don't apply, don't apply to her
No wonder that the world came to an end
There was another on the other side
Inside her head

Come on, come on, come on
Let's go it's getting darker
Come on, come on, come on, come on let's go...
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Before my wish expires
Something bad is on the horizon
Shining ultraviolet light

Shining ultraviolet light

Slow violence only radiates the sand
Delete your messages and...
Come on, come on, come on
Ultraviolet light's know the best way in
Don't wake the monsters in my head
Tip toe they're sleeping in

Come on, come on, come on
Let's go it's getting darker
Come on, come on, come on, come on let's go...
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Before my wish expires
Something bad is on the horizon
Shining ultraviolet light

This was a wish, this was a wish I made...
This was a wish, this was a wish I made...
This was a wish, this was a wish I made...
This was a wish, this was a wish I made...
This was a wish....
Now here comes the light...
Now here comes the light...
Here comes the light...

"Users"

"Users"



I try so hard to be good
I get these bad ides
I try so hard to be good
It doesn't always work out
It doesn't always work out
But I try...

To feel the sunlight on my eyes
Shake off the shadows
That were following me around
It's very nice you know and quite a lot to take in
To feel the sunlight and start growing again

I taught myself to push it away
I was watching, watching you do it to me
I taught myself to throw it away

And you get used to being happy
you get used to it, used to it, used to it...

I like to thing about the clouds...
How they are moving
Sometimes it's nice to stay home...
When everybody goes out
It's nice and quiet when they call it's so loud
I don't understand

I shuffle cool across the boulevard
My feet move steady, my shoes go up and down
I'm always late you know...
Late and never ready
I keep it steady though
When I get tight and all up right

I taught myself to push it away
I was watching, watching you do it to me
I taught myself to throw it away

And you get used to being happy
you get used to it, used to it, used to it...

Make no mistake to be user don't mean loser
Witty and cruel they are so easy to confuse
You'll learn eventually or...
Eventually you'll lose it...
Eventually you'll lose it...
Get used to it...

"Voices"

"Voices"



You come through the door like a bag of rocks

Wounded all the time
And I'm inside the tomb with the t.v. on mute
Elijah don't you come
Oh god don't you come

I steal out the window like I'm using the door
Whispering willows outside
Turn into statues of you, fangs exposed
Breathing fire
Elijah don't you come
Oh god don't you come

Locate the coffin and procure the ring
I'll distract Gabriel
Its your destiny after all
Just go
And don't you ever look back
Kiss me again
And don't you listen to the voices in the past
They lied

When you see the lights don't you dare go in
Find your way back to the house
And the wind upon gate
When the gate swings
Back and forth
That's the sign
And we are never coming back
Once the signal is fired

When you're in the room I am under the bed
I am inside your soul
I cover your mouth
Hands just as ice
Screaming Elijah
Oh Elijah come down
Come and take your award

Locate the coffin and procure the ring
Ill distract Gabriel
Its your destiny after all
Just go
And don't you never look back
Kiss me again
And don't you listen to the voices in the past
They lied, run away from the light run away from the light
Little ones.

"Walkedypants"

"Walkedypants"



I'm a Walkedypants
On your legs
Around your legs
Moving in the breeze

I'm going to Rhode Island on vacation
Can't find the hotel on the internet
Cause they haven't built it yet

Mister Walkedypants
Shake a leg, Mister
If I'm going down to green bean town on my own on the bus and I think I'm gonna ditch your sister
Mister Mister Walkedypants

Christian Slater
You did good in that movie True Romance
Walkedy-face-pants

John Lennon walks into a bar
He orders a Scotch egg
Randy's over in the corner with a Def Leppard T-shirt
He says
Look at Mister Walkedypants!

Mister Walkedypants
Fuck you
And fuck that "beep", too
Slut

If you're going to get one you gotta learn to take a chance
Fuck you, Mister Walkedypants
Yeah, uh-huh
Mister Walkedypants
Oh yeah

"Wasteland"

"Wasteland"



There's evidence now that's somebody's lying
And things to work out bout nobody's trying
I wish I didn't care anymore, as if you cared what I was feeling

Look at all the stars, watch them colliding
These Stars fighting in their secret wars

Underneath the dirt whatever i was hiding
is turning into dust the dust is still rising
I wish I didn't care anymore, but you know I care so little

it's like I see the stars, watch them colliding
These Stars fighting in their secret wars
Before, before it was inviting, now I'm bored
you don't impress me and I find you slightly terrifying

It's your wasteland you have it

"When That Wild Wind Blows"

"When That Wild Wind Blows"



I miss you all the time
walkin, out in the streets in the blisterin cold
Wish I could bring you back diamonds or sandwiches
At the house, it ain’t nothing but cold
I had a real love baby, what happened?
Pick your number and then they call it out
I miss you all the time
Walkin, holdin hands, after dark

I feel like a moon eclipsing on the car lights out in the lot
Sometimes bein yours is everything ya know I just haven’t got
If your gonna give your heart away
Don’t love em for what they’re not
Cause when that wild wind calls, ya gotta get movin on

I miss your voice so kind, and gentle, like a machine built for calmin a storm
And all the leaves outside are turnin, evergreen into orange and brown
I had a real love baby what happened
Get reservations at our restaurant
I miss you all the time, chairs empty
Sittin alone at the table in thought

I feel like a moon eclipsing on the car lights out in the lot
Sometimes bein yours is everything ya know I just haven’t got
If your gonna give your heart away
Don’t love em for what they’re not
Cause when that wild wind calls, ya gotta get movin on
When that wild wind calls, ya gotta get movin on

"When The Stars Go Blue"

"When The Stars Go Blue"



Dancin' where the stars go blue
Dancin' where the evening fell
Dancin' in your wooden shoes
In a wedding gown

Dancin' out on 7th street
Dancin' through the underground
Dancin' little marionette
Are you happy now?

Where do you go when you're lonely
Where do you go when you're blue
Where do you go when you're lonely
I'll follow you
When the stars go blue

Laughing with your pretty mouth
Laughing with your broken eyes
Laughing with your lover's tongue
In a lullaby

Where do you go when you're lonely
Where do you go when you're blue
Where do you go when you're lonely
I'll follow you
When the stars go blue
The stars go blue, stars go blue
