YOU
Pull the bottle from the top
Slide your lips inside her
And sleep on the edge of the tide Green and gold ~ fire’s cold
Kill all the questions
And dip your finger into my wine
Sister strange - just two ways I’ve got my hands up now
And they’re tighter than the night Cut the corners - cut the sheets Cut the edges underneath
I was barely seventeen
ARROWS UP IN ALL DIRECTIONS
I NEVER TRUSTED MY REFLECTION
TASTE THE FLAME
STRIP AWAY THE SKIN JUST TO PROVE
THERE’S STILL SOMETHING THERE INSIDE...
IT’S YOU.
We’ll count it twice - veins of ice Too many windows and
The bed is heavy tonight
Fist enraged - kill the pain
I’ve got a cleaver now
We’ll make good use of the moon
ARROWS UP IN ALL DIRECTIONS
I NEVER TRUSTED MY REFLECTION
TASTE THE FLAME
STRIP AWAY THE SKIN JUST TO PROVE
THERE’S STILL SOMETHING THERE INSIDE...
IT’S YOU.

RONNIE SPECTRE
I wonder who you’re gonna be when I’m gone
]Freezing in those boots laced up tight
I’m gonna leave tomorrow night...
I just might...
If I can scrape together a few more bucks
Let me borrow it for the sake of your old friend...
Who you swore you’d never sleep with again.
And maybe I don’t mind // Maybe I won’t tell
Maybe I’ll put all my foolish plans on the shelf
When the spectre comes to town.
And sleep is just another stoned delight
As the bottle broke, I took another bite.
And I should tell someone who I trust..
Someone who I know...
Someone who won’t send me off to hell in a little rowboat.
A show of hands, let’s start anew.
Forgive all the debt, and all the powder we blew...
Yea, up our nose... yea up in smoke
Couldn’t Handel that Messiah, something baroque.
Let’s make another plan
When the spectre comes to town.
We could shuffle off our own separate ways..
It’s just decent if I know
How many times I’ve got to explain
To that specter on the phone...
Who won’t... Won’t let me go.
Another shipwrecked deal with our own destiny
It’s better than you - better than me
And I’d hang just to cut you the slack...
On a midnight black...
I dug my claws in and bore my back
Now fingers numb - gonna feel the slip
Wanna find your hand just to tighten my grip
And so much blood - yea, we both lost count
Are you praying for the flood to wash away the doubt?
‘Cause I’m a stranger...but I love you...
and I know someday I’d finally destroy you.....
when the spectre comes to town.

ROSE
I wanna tell you that it’s been
a very strange year
I base this fact on everything I hear
And everything I’ve seen...
A nightmare and a dream.
For you I set aside a scene to keep
Hold it close to your heart in sleep
I DON’T WANT YOUR LOVE
IF IT TURNS ME INTO WHO I CANNOT BE
INTO WHO I NEVER WAS
INTO WHO I’LL NEVER BE
Rose...turn your head and look to me
Jesus needed you more than me
So he buried all our plans
God, I waited for your hand
For you I set aside a scene to keep
Hold it close to your heart in sleep
I DON’T WANT YOUR LOVE IF IT TURNS ME...
INTO WHO I CANNOT BE INTO WHO I NEVER WAS
INTO WHAT I’LL NEVER BE
For you I set aside a scene to keep
Hold it close to your heart in sleep
I DON’T WANT YOUR LOVE
IF IT TURNS ME...INTO WHO I CANNOT BE
INTO WHO I NEVER WAS
INTO WHAT IS KILLING ME...

Telepathic Seizure

TELEPATHIC SEIZURE
A telepathic seizure of our time
Nobody’s dealing out the true blood and the trigger
And one’s already slipping through the lines
We saw the peace dissolving into a red river.
And when that river runs....we all run
And only God can blame us for what we’ve done.
Something forced...given up too soon
Can’t wait much longer.
Now breaking face with egos undefined
Once a thief - now welcomed at the table
Wrist and ankles connected to the blind
I’ve been drinkin’ low as I’m chained to the cradle.
The baby’s not for sale (just so you know)
Desperate feelings desperate faces..
SHOW NO MORE THAN WHAT YOU’VE GIVEN US
I’ve got something ~ I’m forcing you to see...
CAN’T GO FAR THAN WHERE YOU’VE TAKEN FROM
Can’t wait much longer.
SHOW NO MORE THAN WHAT YOU’VE GIVEN US
Can’t let this killer slip away...
CAN’T GO FAR THAN WHERE YOU’VE TAKEN FROM
Can’t wait much longer.
WELL DISGUISED - NO DEMONS EXORCISED BUT...
TRUE INTENTIONS LEFT UNDEFINED
YOU’VE GOT ‘EM PARALYZED
TOO STONED TO RECOGNIZE
BUT...TRUE INTENTIONS LEFT UNDEFINED.
SHOW NO MORE THAN WHAT YOU’VE GIVEN US
CAN’T GO FAR THAN WHERE YOU’VE TAKEN FROM
WELL DISGUISED - NO DEMONS EXORCISED BUT...
TRUE INTENTIONS LEFT UNDEFINED
YOU’VE GOT ‘EM PARALYZED
TOO STONED TO RECOGNIZE
BUT...TRUE INTENTIONS LEFT UNDEFINED.

Giving Up The Beast

GIVING UP THE BEAST
I wrote these words down ~ when there was still blood on the wheel
Seen darker days coming ~ It’s getting darker still
I found something that I had never sought
Money spent on anything just to get me out of my head
And now I’ve wasted every drop.
And it stings …
… just like a prick …
… just like a dream …
… just like a drink …
… just like a shot.
I sold whiskey to the heat ~ I sold fire to the well
I may have damaged my truth ~ it’s impossible to tell
Could it be that my ship will ever turn?
Or is it just my time to burn out with the embers?
Who here remembers …just who I was?
And my cause …
… to defeat the elite….
… bloodsuckers
… those motherfuckers …
… who can still afford to eat.
I know you’re laying out your best ~ but I’m skipping on the feast
Goodbye cruel fascination ~ I’m giving up the beast.
Late at night when I’m feeling out of tune
I wait by my window and hope you’re coming soon…
Just to break me off a piece of time…
When I was young…
… and it was spring…
… and the moon was dark…
… and all was good…
… when you were mine.

CORPUS CHRIS
Picture this…
Can you picture this old terrace opened alive?
Corpus Chris - filled with sin and expertise advice
Midnight…
I hear you calling on the green
Won’t you send me all the love you found in magazines?
AGAIN AND AGAIN, LOVERS ARE FOR TAKING
AGAIN AND AGAIN, ALL I GOT IS WAITING.
Some want fire
Some want ways to put it out
Some want nothing more than an hour to breathe
Some might say
Some might say the fix is open tonight
And better play
You’d better play the hand you’re holding tight.
Midnight…
I hear you calling on the green
Won’t you send me all the love you found in magazines?
AGAIN AND AGAIN, LOVERS ARE FOR TAKING
AGAIN AND AGAIN, ALL I GOT IS WAITING.
AGAIN AND AGAIN, LOVERS ARE FOR TAKING
AGAIN AND AGAIN, ALL I GOT IS WAITING.
Picture this
Picture this whole planet burning alive
And Corpus Chris
All this canvases are dripping his grin.

WHISTLE TALK
I HEAR YOUR WHISTLE TALK
JUST LIKE A KILLER CLOCK
I HEARD IT BEATS THE BLOCK
I WOULDN’T MAKE IT STOP
Candy sister face on fire
Medicine man make me higher
Biggest bag of tricks unturned
Spark it up now . . .
Just to see how it burns
I HEAR YOUR WHISTLE TALK
JUST LIKE A KILLER CLOCK
OOH I HEARD IT BEATS THE BLOCK
I WOULDN’T MAKE IT STOP
Slap your face on mine, boy….
I couldn’t even tell you where I’m from
Put your faith aside now
And keep me up until the morning come.
I HEAR YOUR WHISTLE TALK
JUST LIKE A KILLER CLOCK
OOH I HEARD IT BEATS THE BLOCK
I WOULDN’T MAKE IT STOP

KEEPER’S PARK
I wanna fade
Sliding right out of this frame
Give it a push
Shove it aside and take the blame
You won’t remember this frustration .. it’s so much better than life.
You owe me shelter …
You’re gonna lay down and stay down ‘till it’s dark ~!
I wanna fight
Someone come get a piece of me
Hit where it hurts
Something to feel it finally
You can’t expect yourself to let go and untie everything
There’s no worth in weeping … you’re thoughts are useless…
Down in Keeper’s Park ~!
You can’t expect yourself to let go….
You can’t expect yourself to let go.
No worth in weeping —-
Thoughts are useless down in Keeper’s Park~!
• • •
If love is all we own - I’m kissing fingers to the bone
It’s well worth the loan … now isn’t it?
And the seeds yet to be sewn - out there scattered on the stones
Sets fire to this home … Now wouldn’t you?
There’s a need to be alone - a whisper deep within the tone
Morning light will be shown, my friend to you
And if I should fall from grace - etch these words on my face
The prize is kind…but the taste…
The taste will ruin you.

僕らは星くず
汚れ疲れたマシーン
酒飲みごまかす
そんな自分を変えたい
MIDNIGHT ON THE MOUNTAIN
Feels just like it should!
Give what is honest
Give what is faithfull
Give what is good~!!
幻覚妄想
現実逃避はいらない
共依存に中毒
子供じみてるね
MIDNIGHT ON THE MOUNTAIN
Feels just like it should!
Give what is honest
Give what is faithfull
Give what is good~!!
君のはちみつ
指を君の口に
それだけで登るよね
Take me to the mountaintop
MIDNIGHT ON THE MOUNTAIN
Feels just like it should!
Give what is honest
Give what is faithfull
Give what is good~!!
