"Suburban Relapse"

"Suburban Relapse"

I'm sorry that I hit you
But my string snapped
I'm sorry I disturbed your cat-nap
But whilst finishing a chore
I asked myself "what for"
Then something snapped,
I had a relapse... A Suburban relapse

I was washing up the dishes
Minding my own business
When my string snapped
I had a relapse... A Suburban relapse

(Should I?)
Throw things at the neighbors
Expose myself to strangers?
Kill myself or... you?
Now memory gets hazy?
I think I must be crazy
But my string snapped
I had a relapse...
A suburban relapse

"Supernatural Thing"

"Supernatural Thing"

Your love, your love, your love,
Your love is a supernatural thing
Your love, your love, your love,
Your love is a supernatural thing
When we touch, it gives me some funny feeling in my brain
I'm so possessed by your love sometimes
I don't even know my name
When we kiss, you know you make me hot
I break out sometimes in little bitty green spots
You give me, give me all you got
But don't stop it now, 'cause I need a lot

Your love, your love, your love,
Your love is a supernatural thing
Your love, your love, your love is a supernatural thing
Interplanetary, extraordinary oh...I like it
Interplanetary, oh extraordinary...I like it, I like it

You give me constant feeling everytime I squeeze you
Your love, so electrifying,
So satisfying lord knows, high and flying
Your love, your love, your love,
Your love is a supernatural thing
Your love, your love, your love is a supernatural thing
Interplanetary oh extraordinary...I like it
Interplanetary, extraordinary oh...
Supernatural Thing

Interplanetary, extraordinary...
Supernatural Thing

"Sweetest Chill"

"Sweetest Chill"

Hearing you in my sleep
Feeling you, your cadence seeps
Whispering in flashback
The specters of your memories
Fall in glistening showers

Such a tender descent
Intones this haunting lament

The sweetest chill

Fearing you but calling your name
Icy breath encases my skin
Fingers like a fountain of needles
Shiver along my spine
And rain down so divine

The sweetest chill
The sweetest chill

A drowning so sublime
Spins in a heavenly climb

Calling you, tears thaw my sleep
Wanting you, this hoary web is weaved
From this strange confusion
Grows a perverse communication
It enthralls me and coils me around

The sweetest chill
The sweetest chill
The sweetest chill

Enchantment ebbs and whirls
The sweetest chill
Enchantment ebbs and whirls
The thrill, the sweetest chill

"Swimming Horses"

"Swimming Horses"

Falling in your, falling in your in your arms
Fish on a line, learns to live on dry land
Thrown back again to drown

Kinder with poison
Then pushed down the well or a face burnt to hell
Feel the cruel stones breaking her bones
Dead before born
Words fall in ruins -- but no sound
She's dying of your shame -- she's maimed by your pain
He gives birth to swimming horses

Fish on a line, walking on dry land
But back in the water to drown -- we drown
Floating in sky
He gives birth to swimming horses

Take a ride on the tide with the assassin at your side
the weightlessness under water -- forgets in slow motion
And watches pointless tortures
He gives birth to swimming horses
Floating in sky like fishes can fly through your arms

"Swimming Horses (Live)"

"Swimming Horses (Live)"

Falling in your, falling in your in your arms
Fish on a line, learns to live on dry land
Thrown back again to drown

Kinder with poison
Then pushed down the well or a face burnt to hell
Feel the cruel stones breaking her bones
Dead before born
Words fall in ruins -- but no sound
She's dying of your shame -- she's maimed by your pain
He gives birth to swimming horses

Fish on a line, walking on dry land
But back in the water to drown -- we drown
Floating in sky
He gives birth to swimming horses

Take a ride on the tide with the assassin at your side
the weightlessness under water -- forgets in slow motion
And watches pointless tortures
He gives birth to swimming horses
Floating in sky like fishes can fly through your arms

"Switch"

"Switch"

Different lives
In different places
Familiar problems
Same old faces

Shuffle lives
Into wrong categories
Cross the wires
And fuse humanities

Watch the muscles twitch
For a brand new switch...

Scientist G.P.'s
With patient guinea pigs
Curing their headaches
With drastic side-effects

Watch the muscles twich
For a brand new switch'

Doctor rectorates
Condescending from on high
For all hallucinators
See druggist in the sky

Vicar experiments
But 'tis blasphemy
Dismissing thought of progress
As the mark of devilry
Switch

People walk
And even talk
People listen
Then they halt

Something blows up
Won't come down
Scattered muscles twitch
Too late to switch

"Take Me Back"

"Take Me Back"

Deep in the heart
Of a seething beast
Think of bright lights
A splendid feast
But something's missing
She's feeling low
Something's missing
She's going home

Take me back -- I'm feeling low
Take me back -- I'm going home
Take me back -- I'm so alone
Take me back I'm travelling home

Suspicious stranger
There's something wrong
She is changed
Ah but this is not

She is back
But she's not home
She is back
But she's still alone
She came back after all this time
She came back to warning signs
All is black when the lights are on
Nothing rhymes its been so long

Deep in the heart
Of a seething beast
Think of bright lights
A splendid feast
Where you arrive
Can be home
Where you come from
Isn't always home

Take me back -- I'm coming home
Take me back -- where I belong
Take me back I'm leaving home
Take me back I'm coming home

"Tattoo"

"Tattoo"

When you're sitting all alone in the middle of the floor
There's something uncontrollable
As you sit there watching the door
Colour me

Tattooed on the inside
Slap your thigh, slap your calf,
Sing your mantra, leave your mark
Colour me

Something fierce along my spine
To scare the madman from behind
Fortify my arms with some snake-like lines
Colour me, colour me

Like a stomach split in half
By a surgeon's cutting art
Colours me, colours me, colours me

When you're sitting all alone
In the middle of the floor
There's something uncontrollable
As you sit there watching the door

Tattooed on the inside
A lonely feeling
Inoculating
Colours me

Slap your thigh, slap your calf,
Sing your mantra, leave your mark
Colour me

"Tearing Apart"

"Tearing Apart"

I know it's all a game
I know they're all insane
I know it's all in vain
I know that I'm to blame
This tearing apart

I think we all should die
I think we're dead inside
I know the purest rain
Won't wash the bloody stain
I know it waits to strike
This sickness from inside

Will tear us apart
You're still in my heart
Tearing apart
Tearing apart
Oh you hold the rain

Far far away
Wild swans skim across a lake
Then soar in a white arc
Above my head I wake

Tearing apart
You're still in my heart
Tearing apart
Tearing apart
Oh you hold the rain

"Tenant"

"Tenant"

Squatting on doorsteps -- following footsteps
Nocturnal habits are surveyed with interest
So we crawl into corners -- ignore any callers
And imagine our radiators clang for our neighbours

When we crawl on all fours -- upon the cushioned floor
Still they cling to the walls and knock on our doors
And the tendency for tenants is tenacity

The paint is cracked -- and the paper peels
The plaster falls and a body reels... softly

Forty watt bulb swing from a light cloud
On lawnmower groan, the carpet has grown
But they have eyes at the keyholes and ears at the walls
And the tendency for tenants is secrecy... ssssssh
