Father Lucifer

Father Lucifer


Father Lucifer
You never looked so sane
You always did prefer the drizzle to the rain
Tell me that you're still in love with that milkmaid
How's the Lizzies
How's your Jesus Christ been hanging

Nothing gonna stop me from floating
Nothing gonna stop me from floating

He says he reckons I'm a watercolour stain
He says I run and then I run from him
And then I run
He didn't see me watching
From the aeroplane
He wiped a tear
And then he threw away our appleseed

Nothing gonna stop me from floating

Everyday's my wedding day
Though baby's still in his comatose state
I'll die my own Easter eggs
Don't go yet
And Beenie lost the sunset but that's but that's OK
Does Joe bring flowers to Marilyn's grave
And girls that eat pizza but never gain weight
Father Lucifer you never looked so sane

Father's Son

Father's Son


Steady girl on your feet
(Steady girl on your feet)
You and your wonderings
(You and your wonderings)
Bread can feed a few
(Bread can feed a few)
So can some cartoons

So it ends
So it begins
Ah my fatherâ??s son
Plant another seed of hate

In a trusting virgin gun
Steady girl for the show
(Steady girl for the show)
Got a versus god ringside
(Got a versus god ringside)
Littered with corpses
Neither God can forgive
So the desert proves
(So the desert proves)
Strawberry canned dust
(Strawberry canned dust
Can you blame nature
(Can you blame nature)
If sheâ??s had enough of us

So it ends
So it begins
Ah my fatherâ??s son
Plant another seed of hate

In a trusting virgin gun
Steady boy watch them pray
To you I suspect
If you keep my flesh firm
Iâ??ll ready those sacraments

So it ends
So it begins
Ah my fatherâ??s son
So it ends
So it begins
Ah my fatherâ??s son
Plant another seed of hate
In another fatherâ??s son.

Fayth

Fayth


Make it in the city
Do what you can
Wave to the boy with a gun in his hand
Hey
Lollipop girls pave the street
Stand in line to be in your limousine
You took my love
You took my money
You took my sex
Took my love
Took my money
Give me

Fayth
Help me keep myself together
With a little more Fayth
With a little more Fayth yeah
Fayth
I could keep our love together
With a little more Fayth
I could wake up and face the day

How do you keep the romance there
When a little French maid
Lives downstairs
Radio blasts as the baby cries
Run to the dragon that runs my life
You took my love
You took my money
You took my sex
Took my love
Took my money
Give me

Fayth
Help me keep myself together
With a little more Fayth
With a little more Fayth yeah
Fayth
I could keep our love together
With a little more Fayth
I could wake up and face the day

I could wake up and face the day
Maybe I could start again
Why am I afraid of change
Maybe Fayth could understand
Darlin' I remember when
I held the violets in my hand
Love can crush, held too tight
We could bring it back alive
With a little more
Fayth

Fayth
I could keep our love together
With a little more Fayth...

Fearlessness

Fearlessness


Fearlessness blew in with the wind
Waking up to greet the sun
We sailed on like the ancient ones
Into the night underworld
We knew dangers would come
I had faith in both of us

Listen to your heart
(You can hear me)
Listen to your heart
(You can hear me)

Day turned night when he questioned
Why can't you balance the sky?
Soulless storms have sent watchers
With bladeless weapons to fight

Teams of horses of the brine
Followed his cries through the fire
Demons of the wild hissed with the wind
Did you listen?

Listen to your heart
(Can you hear me?)
Listen to your heart
(Can you hear me?)

Fearlessness soon reminded me
You must be stronger then they
Cautioning there those who live
To be cruel for the fun of it

He let in a dark companion
That orbited between us
His siren friends convinced him that love
Was no match against storms to come
Their songs inflamed by doubt
Fearlessness drowned them out

Teams of horses of the brine
Followed his cries through the fire
Demons of the wild hissed with the wind
Did you listen?

Listen to your heart
Can you hear me?
Listen to your heart
Can you hear me?

Did we begin without knowing it?
To find fault in every gift
Then that was when the blame began
What were once two forces joined
In fearlessness

Fire To Your Plain

Fire To Your Plain


Shock, got the shock of my life
Just buckle up girls, I'm stealin' the night
From the still of the night
What they're down to
Let's see, in cold daylight

I gotta get this right
I gotta get this right

Cause she's all
And I am low
Watching you watching her play this game
Yes, she's bold
Bold enough
To set fire to your plain
Her fire to your plain

Pray
You can pray to your Jane
I put out the call
But not to be saved
Called my deviling kin
With her yellow Aston Martin

We gotta get this right
I gotta get this right

Cause she's all
And I am low
Watching him watching her play this game
Yes, she's bold
Bold enough
To set fire to his plain

She said, "get in"
And set the SatNav to hell
Or would it be a purgatory?

I gotta get this right
I gotta get this right

Cause she's all
And I am low
Watching you watching her play this game
Yes, she's bold
Bold enough
To set fire to your plain
Her fire to your plain

Her fire...
Bold enough...
Her fire to your plain

Flavor

Flavor


Back to love the minds
Cries below
Cries above
You must pick a side
Will you choose fear
Will you choose love

[Chorus:]
What does it look like
This orbital ball
From the fringes of the milky way
What does it feel like
This orbital ball
On the fringes of the milky way
Raining flavor
I've seen flavor flavor love

Who's god then is god
They all want jurisdiction
In the book of Eris
Who's god spread fear
Spread love

[Chorus]

Try not to breath when seen

What does it look like
This orbital ball
From the fringes of the milky way
What does it feel like
This orbital ball
On the fringes of the milky way
Raining flavor
I've seen flavor

Spread that flavor
Flavor
Flavor
Flavor

Floating City

Floating City


You went away
Why did you leave me
You know I believed you
Nothing explained
Where are the answers
I know I need you

Tell me
Is your city paved with gold
Is there hunger
Do your people grow old
Do your governments
Have secrets that they've sold

Every night I wait
Take me away
To your floating city
By my window at night
I see the lights
To your floating city
Come and take me away
I want to play in your
Floating city yeah
Floating city yeah

T.V. turns off
Any of us that
Say that we've seen you
Tell me are we
The only planet
That can't conceive you

Will we be like Atlantis
Long ago
So assured that we're advanced
With what we know
That our spirit
Never had time to grow

Every night I wait
Take me away
To your floating city
By my window at night
I see the lights
To your floating city
Come and take me away
I want to play in your
Floating city yeah
Floating city yeah

Is it weak to look for
Saviors out in space
Little earth she tries so hard
To change our ways
Sometimes she must get sick
Of this place

Every night I wait
Take me away
To your floating city
By my window at night
I see the lights
To your floating city
Come and take me away
I want to play in your
Floating city yeah
Floating city yeah

Flying Dutchman

Flying Dutchman


Hey kid, I got a ride for you
They say your brain is a comic book tattoo
And you'll never be anything
What will you do with your life
That's all you hear from noon till night

Take a trip on a rocket ship baby where the sea is the sky
I know the guy who runs the place and he's out-a-sight
Flying Dutchman are you out there
Flying Dutchman are you out there

Straight suits, they don't understand
She tried, that one, with the alligator boots but the other side drew her in
Heart falling fast when she left, even the Milky Way was dressed in black

Take a trip on a rocket ship baby where the sea is the sky
I know the guy who runs the place and he's out-a-sight
Flying Dutchman are you out there
Flying Dutchman are you out there

'Cause they can't see what you're born to be
They can see me
They can't be
What they can't believe
They can see what you see

They'll keep the boy spinning in their own little world ah.
Tie him up so he won't say a word
They'll keep the boy spinning in their own little world
So afraid he'll be what they never were

For Emily, Wherever I May Find Her (live)

For Emily, Wherever I May Find Her (live)


What I dream I had, pressed in organdy,
Clothed in crinoline of smoky Burgundy,
Softer than the rain.
I wandered empty streets down past the shop displays.
I heard cathedral bells tripping down the alley ways, as I walked on.
And when you ran to me, your cheeks flushed with the night.
We walked on frosted fields of juniper and lamplight, I held your hand.

And when I awoke and felt you warm and near,
I kissed your honey hair with my grateful tears.
Oh, I love you, girl. Oh, I love you.
